“Then you could have kept that to yourself -- then again, if you like talking to yourself, that’s interesting--”

“I wouldn’t go in there if I were you.”

“Do you realize that saying that just makes it all the more tempting, right?”

Dunno.

“That’s a surprise--”

“Could you hand me those mint sprigs?” Albus said, hovering over his work. “I’m working on a Volubilis potion. I think it’ll be great to have for Halloween, huh?”

#chat:albus #albus001 #almostalbus

“Uh yeah --” reaching over to grab the sprig of leaves, she was just passing by the classroom, when she recognized a familiar face, “what does it do?” cocking a brow as she sat herself down on the nearest stool.

Remind me again why I decided to keep Potions.

“Might have some use in the future? It depends on where you go and I guess what you want, it could just be a pile of unnecessary work, but at least it’s occasionally interesting? From what I heard that’s the case, but I don’t have to live through it -- I’m probably the worse person to ask--”

“Yes, exactly. An entire year and in that time you shouldn’t be a stranger. I’m sure we’ll have lots of fun together.”

“I’ll hold you to that --” grinning as she knew that she wouldn’t mind his company in the slightest. It wasn’t lost on her that they were getting closer to the castle and she still needed to grab her things from her compartment, “I need to grab my things -- I’ll see you around, yeah?”

“A smart guy, that one. Brings a new perspective to things and always there for you. That’s Albus.” Sterling nodded, listening intently. “We still got time to figure it out though, right? I’m sort of doing the same. A job involving charms would be ideal and studying werewolves and whatnot interest me quite a bit as well. So you’re not alone about working it out. I’m just going along for the ride.”

“Those are two very different areas--” she noted, perhaps she wasn’t completely alone, “you’re right and we do have quite some time--” grinning. “an entire year to sort out our lives -- I think we’re going to be fine--”

“Oh? He’d do that to people. Oh you know Albus? He’s one of my best bud.” He added, beaming now. “The future is always scary. Any particular dreams or aspirations you’re heading to?”

“He really does have a certain effect on people--” she muttered, “I actually just kind of met him? I’ve heard of him and seen him about, but I’ve never really had the chance to speak to him until today! Honestly, I’m not quite sure, something to do with language and law -- I’m still working on it--”

“Oh yeah? If you’re around me more you’d get to see more crazy antics.” He added, putting his back on once more. “Glad I did though.”

“Uh noted -- I’ll keep that in mind” a sheepish smile tugging at her lips, “really, you had it in the bag -- Mclaggen kind of riled me up, I had a nice conversation with Albus, but it kind of got me worrying about the future -- and well this, this was just fun”

Sterling had noticed the laughter that spilled from the girl’s lips all of a sudden. A smile sprung on his own after seeing her. “At least my failure got a beautiful laugh out of you.”

“Cute--” her smile widening ever so slightly, “I’ve never really seen someone wrestle with a bag -- I think you might have just made my day--”

It was only just a moment later he had found the bag attempting to find a way around but Sterling had managed to tackle it. Wrestling it to the ground he took his wand, pressing it to the fabric and undid the spell, having it lifeless once more. “Whew..thanks. As for how it happened? Well a charm had went awry, lets just say. I love practicing them. Failure leads to greatness right?”

She had tried -- really tried to hold back her laughter at the sight of the boy wrestling down the bag, but she could only contain so much, “yeah -- I’d like to think that failure leads to greatness, just keep trying and it will all eventually work out--”

“My summer was fine. Filled with trips, meetings and oh so informative discussions with some of the greatest minds one would be lucky to converse with.” Prescott said, with the usual amount of aggravating arrogance lacing his words.

“How quickly things change in the moment. You have a gift, though the same can’t be said for your general… anything. I would think that out of line, though with you, I do find it best to drop any sense of decorum. It’s what comes naturally.” At the mere insult, Prescott laughed. “You think time is something to get up in arms about? How little the know it all truly understands. Hey, that would make for a great poster. Perhaps we can pay a first year into making it, or you can always breathe down their back until they do.”

“That sounds entertaining -- I hope it was productive, here I was hoping that you’d come back with a little bit of humanity. Should have known better--”

“It’s natural for you to be the most impolite human being to ever exist? Thank you for the epiphany -- that makes it all clear” she retorted, her agitation besting her once again. There was something about the boy before her that made her want to tear her hair out -- or well, tear his out. She shouldn’t have to suffer because of his ignorance. You are so right, Prescott -- I don’t care or even fathom what’s going on. It’s not as if I care enough to stay in the loop -- attend meetings and try to give a little hope, but then again hope is probably not a word that you’re too familiar with. Too busy trying to ensure separation, merlin forbid every student be given a right to choose their educational environment--”

“Don’t blame how you took my words on me, Avani. If one wants to quibble, they will find a way. Clearly.”

“Ignoring the rubbish that apparently flows so easily out of your mouth, I will agree with you. We Fudge’s have been accused of such in the past.”

#chat:prescott #prescottfudge #prescott001

“I don’t want too --” she nearly started before choosing to take a deep breath, “alright Prescott, I apologize if my general question irked you, how was your summer?” she tried, a well practiced smile toying at her lips.

“So kind, here I thought we were going to attempt to be civil. I was merely stating something that you wanted to take a shot at me with. Sure, I might be on a few posters and I might be a representation of an organization, but can you really say that I’m the only poster child here? How is your cousin? Clearly she hasn’t found a way to tear down decree 48, is she getting frustrated? I hope she isn’t stressing too much, it really takes a toll--”

“Muggle stationary is amazing. I have a box full of different papers, envelopes, and pens. They’re organised by paper type and colour. It’s my favourite. And because my entire family is magical, I have an excuse to use it all to write them letters.”

#chat:molly #molly001 #mollsthesecond

“Of course you do -- are there different colour schemes of paper or are we just talking rainbow? I might be a little offended that I haven’t received a colourful letter--”

“To think I thought we’d start off on a better foot. However, so be it. It is easier not to pretend one finds enjoyment in such… attention seeking behavior. I’ll stick to seeing your likeness on posters and whatnot.”

#is it wrong that i lowkey love him even tho she prob hates his guts #chat:prescott #prescottfudge #prescott001

“You basically implied that I was a loon talking to myself -- what’s your definition of better foot? Coming from the most ironic boy to ever exist -- that’s rather flattering”

“I also never really pegged you as a hypocrite, then again you’re just full of surprises--”

“Dear Merlin, has the unthinkable finally happened. The great Avani Patil has run out of words.“
