     “ what, like their reputation ?  who cares.”  it came out sounding more flippant than he’d intended, so monty corrected himself.  “ what i mean to say is, whatever it is, if it changes others views that’s more their problem than it is yours. “  he shrugged.  “ if they’d be embarrassed or upset by it ?  their problem.  if someone’s views effected them in some way, again, still their problem.  i stand by what i said;  your life, your decisions. “  he shrugged.  “ maybe it shouldn’t be that cut and dry, but that’s how i live my life. “  there was a time where monty struggled with the need to be who people wanted him to be, or how they perceived him, but admitting to himself his shortcomings and his strengths – and celebrating and accepting both – had helped him in the long run.  he was happier now, wasn’t he ?   “  this is all hypothetical given that i don’t know what we’re talking about. “  he admitted.  “ … but if it helped, you’re welcome ? “ 

 “ yes and no. “  he answered.  “ they probably have a set of tests they cycle through. “  he paused to consider his answer.  “ it was the same kinds of questions so i guess that was an advantage.  it felt easier but that was probably because i had twice as long to study, when you think about it.  just don’t dwell on the answers you don’t know; you’ll waste time and you might not get a chance to get to everything. “  the n.e.w.t.s were long; they were strategically done that way, he assumed, to exhaust you as you were writing them.  “ oh, and bring extra quills.  i snapped two before i finished. “

      a pint was dropped down in front of him.  his quidditch teammate waved off his galleons and headed to a table at the back where a few other wizards were seated.  monty recognized some but not the others; friends of the team, he assumed.  he took a drink, turning back towards azaria.  there was no hurry to join the table at the back.  “do you want to work with dragons ? seems like a dangerous career choice if you’re not 100% sold on the idea. “  he grinned.  “ i wouldn’t mind it so much myself but i wear too my dragon-hide.  i’m sure they’d know, somehow, and try to burn me to a crisp at the first opportunity. “

unsure why-- had been the thought that crossed through azaria’s head. it was easier, talking to someone she didn’t know that well. who in return didn’t really know her that well either. which was better than talking to someone who did. perhaps, talking to strangers really did help. she had heard before of people doing it but she had never.. she always felt bad like she was bothering or bugging someone. it just seemed easier. made her less anxious that word would get out she wasn’t and hadn’t been being honest with everyone. and in return so, was getting advice.. advice she wasn’t sure where else she would have gotten it. so it was entirely appreciated. “..huh. i never really thought of it that way before.” it was like hearing something that made complete and utter sense for the first time, and she was. the redhead had never thought of it that way before. that why did it matter to her so much what others thought..? perhaps, all that mattered was what she felt and what those important to her-- friends included felt. “tha isn’t a wrong way to live. everyone always cares ya know how others feel.. sometimes more than how they feel. and they let that decide how they live.” it probably seemed wise, but that was a feeling she knew. all too well. “no it really does help! i needed another opinion.. for that hypothetical.” that wasn’t so hypothetical. “yeah, of course it is.” the freckled redhead says through a smile. “oh, it definitely did. gave me an answer i hadn’t even thought of it. i appreciate it, so thank ya again.” the hufflepuff had never thought about how it all made her feel before.

“tha makes sense, it seems all so complicated for my liking.. wish it wasn’t like that.” comes her answer, with a shake of her head as she scribbles down on parchment the advice-- just for safe keeping and as a reminder, that when they were around the corner she would remember and perhaps stress a little less than she was sure she would be at the time. “anyone ever tell ya, you’re good at giving advice? because if not, you really are. consider it wrote down, just so i remember when the time comes to bring some extra quills in my satchel. couldn’t hurt, and extra ink probably wouldn’t be the worst idea either.”

there’s a quick shake of her head, at the mention of working with dragons. “the former charms teaching assistant went to work with dragons.. or train with them rather. heard from miss west that it’s exhausting. and from my dad too over the years. so, i don’t think that it’s for me. not because of tha, but just because i know how difficult the training is.” truthfully? she didn’t see herself down the line being in that profession. “i honestly don’t know wha i want ta do.” there’s a soft shrug of her shoulders. “got time to figure out i s’pose, and oh merlin! ya think the dragons are that mean and would do that just ta do it?” there’s a shake of her head, a laugh falling from her lips. “i hope, i’m not keeping ya from ya friends?”

           if monty was a legilimens, maybe he wouldn’t have accepted azaria’s half truths as reality.  as it were though, he wasn’t.  he could barely keep up with his own thoughts let alone those of other people.  having overprotective parents wasn’t something he’d ever experienced himself but he could understand why it would be frustrating; especially when your opinions differed and you couldn’t agree on things. that he understood all too well.  “ it’s your life. “ he pointed out.  “ i’m sure their opinion is important but at the end of the day, it’s you that has to live with your decisions and not them. “  he shrugged.  “ that’s just my two knuts. “  he wasn’t exactly the poster child for stellar parental relationships so maybe his opinion wasn’t the best to take with any hope for success.  he murmured as much.

  “ look on the bright side, “  he murmured with a snort.  “ if you really muck up, they’ll just have you repeat the year and try again. “  now that was an opinion you could take to gringotts;  after all, the wizard himself had done just that.  “ it’s easier the second time around. “  though his wife knew the truth, that he’d failed his n.e.w.t. examinations on purpose, it WASN’T common knowledge.  he’d rather people think he was poor in the smarts department than a complete idiot !  only an insane person would want to repeat an entire year over again just to avoid having to enter the real world.   even now, slightly improved as he was, he was still prolonging the inevitability of getting a real job – a career – by playing professional quidditch.  as much as he loved the sport, he knew it wasn’t a forever career.  not for him, anyway.  “ … but if you’ve been studying, you’ll do fine.  seventh years like to scare sixth years by saying the tests are terrible because we want you to suffer like we did.  they really aren’t THAT terrible. “

“i appreciate it.” truth be told another opinion, was perhaps just what azaria had needed-- to give her the courage to tell them that she knew to be careful and to trust her. it was just one of those things where perhaps hearing it from someone else made a difference. and helped her out. “say.. hypothetically speaking it had to do with something that could change people’s perspective on someone? would that be the same answer?” again, it wasn’t a complete lie-- far from it, that was the reality of it and whilst she knew they were merely looking out for their daughter.. it put pressure on her, not to let them down. not when she thought they had moved clear from ireland to be near her in case something happened ( or at least she suspected it was close to the truth ) not for her dad to study dragons found in scotland. but maybe she was just being foolish for thinking that. “no but seriously.. i do appreciate it. i needed some advice.. i wasn’t sure who ta ask-- didn’t want to ya know bother anyone with my problems.”

“tha is true.” admittedly that thought alone stressed her out more, especially when all she kept hearing was how HORRIBLE and stressful everyone thought they would be. it was one of those things where you heard something so much you couldn’t help but wonder if it was true. “was it pretty much tha same thing the second time around?” now that answer might make her more relived. she let out a breath she realized she hadn’t even been holding. “oh thank merlin.. i hope so. i honestly want ta do well, even if i’m not sure what i want ta do yet.. i know my dad wants me to work with dragons like him. so that someone follows in his steps.” it was an option. something was better than nothing! “that’s really mean! but i’m glad to hear tha, makes me feel so much better. because i have been stressing out mostly  because of everyone in my ear telling me about them. and wow tha is such a relief!”

「 @unfocuseds plotted a starter. 」

azaria probably seemed like a small child; as she roamed the streets of muggle london-- a bubbly smile on her features, and hazel colored hues lit up bright like one might say the star on top of a christmas tree was. someone may have wondered why she was so happy to be among muggles. but the truth was? not often did she get to. so, when she was able to, she always had the brightest smile written across her freckled features. someone who had seen it may have just thought, she was in a good mood or had a good day-- which also may not have been all that far from being wrong. not if they knew her that was.

why? for too many reasons for the irish redhead to count! probably too many for her to count on her toes and fingers, which said a lot-- there’s an abrupt stop as she thinks over her head where she was headed to first. “where to.. where to.” tapping a finger against her chin as she does so.

irene nods in agreement and pulls out her own quill and ink.  she safely tucks her wand in her bag and turns to face the hufflepuff witch. she stifled a giggle at azaria mimicking professor snape.  she didn’t want to  risk  losing house points just because the potions master didn’t think she was paying attention.

“  well of course potions and potions safety are an important part of  ‘  day to day  ’  life.  reckon merlin would be rolling around his grave that people won’t adhere to it  ?  ”  she props her elbow on the table and rests her chin on the palm of her hand.  “  i know people may not take it seriously since it is coming from snape  …  but the assembly presents a good point.  it’s a miracle we haven’t had a big accident in the dungeons.  ”  while the head of slytherin wasn’t exactly her favorite person and she could take a guess that he most likely wasn’t very popular with the rest of the houses outside of slytherin.

azaria nods her head, not minding that irene had stifled a laugh-- but she had tried, and at least she knew that her best friend had found it somewhat funny. she meant no ill intentions or meant ill with her joke, she didn’t mind snape-- as he helped her, not that anyone really knew that. so she had more of an understanding and she was a hufflepuff.. hufflepuffs weren’t as disliked she didn’t think. “and we don’t want merlin rolling in his grave! it’s important.. considering ya can blow yourself up if ya don’t do a potion correctly.. and that’s not ya know.. not good. i mean true! it’s a good thing and i’m glad that nothing like tha has happened. so it makes sense about something like tha happening.. though everyone doesn’t seem thrilled about it.”

        quidditch practice could be rather tiring.  she wasn’t off base.  for most of the irish national team, they’d been preparing for their sponsorship matches for months.  when he’d joined the team as a late replacement for their concussed former keeper, he’d been vastly out of shape compared to the rest of the players.  taking time off after his injuries sustained during the attack at the glitzy cauldron.  he’d been out for several weeks, leaving him to fall further and further behind.  the wizard was honestly just grateful he wasn’t a chaser;  as keeper, at least he remained stationary by the goal hoops for the majority of the game.  he didn’t have to worry so much about getting winded as long as his reflexes were sharp.  as he thought about quidditch practices and his woes, he noticed that azaria seemed as preoccupied in her thoughts as he was.  “ knut for your thoughts ?  “  he teased.  “ you look a million miles away. . 

「 ✨ monty has used a 🍵 veritaserum Boost  」

     he had to agree with her. everyone’s experience was different.  “ revision’s well and good but it’s the people who try to cram in the last few weeks of term who are wasting their time. “  for someone like monty, who’d been failing on purpose for nearly seven years, he’d never really known was it was like to NOT know information.  to fail spectacularly, you had to know what you were doing.  “ you either know it, or you don’t.  you’ll stress yourself sick trying to cram a few more useless details up there and forget the rest. “  he shrugged.  “ personally, i think written tests are like a blind cobbler’s thumb. practicals are more practical. “

azaria glances towards monty, as the question is asked-- there’s an internal debate, probably shown in her hazel colored hues. as she debates what she wants to say, she couldn’t say a lot.. not everyone knew she had broken glass created by leprechauns. that it had gifted her the ability to create rainbows.. that it made her parents overprotective.. that it made her self-conscious and afraid people wouldn’t look at her the same way. that it required her taking a potion the same time everyday. and that was why she was lost in her thoughts.

「 azaria had used a ✋Blocking Spell Boost: 」

the visit had made her for the dozenth time or so, promise not to tell anyone. aside from those that had to know. because they too feared she would be treated differently. “huh..? oh yeah.. just my parents just left not long ago. they gave me a lot to think about.” it wasn’t a lie, but it also wasn’t entirely the full truth either. “they are really overprotective.. mean well too ya know. i know that. but sometimes i just wish they’d let me decide what’s best for me.” would people really treat her any differently if they knew? perhaps they’d just think it was cool.. but then again she just didn’t know. and she felt that she should listen to her parents. “i appreciate a lot that ya would ask me.”

there’s a nod of her head in understanding as her hands clap together, in nothing but pure excitement that someone got it. “yes thank you! tests make me nervous.” to her, it was like she knew the answers. which most of the time she did. but when it came to tests her brain locked up, and then there was just a blank. “i’d prefer more practical type of tests.. that’s why i’ve been kind of studying throughout. at hopes i learn everything before they come around but i’m definitely scared about them. just it’s so important.. it’s so much pressure. tha is what makes it so scary too.”

hufflepuff-b:

    as the girl’s words hit him, he remembered why he’d chosen to learn from her how to actually be a hufflepuff. it made sense to defend a person - even if that person was professor snape - since hufflepuffs were all about tolerance and kindness, his aunt’s words came rushing to his mind. tiberius took a mental note on that before nodding in response. the boy then returned his gaze to the professor, taking a few notes on those short few words. it wasn’t like he’d never read about all of that before so he didn’t need lots of details on his piece.  “i’m beginning to think that he likes me.”  he went back to facing the girl with a playful small smile on his features as he joked.  “guess i’ll take caldogan’s pony on that.”  he winked at the other as he added.

「✨ tiberius has used a wizarding idiom x4」 

“i think so.” azaria agrees with as much of a quiet laugh as she could manage, not wanting professor snape or anyone else to think she wasn’t paying attention. she was! if anything she was multitasking. chatting and listening at that. “ya should, just ta be safe.” she answers with a nod of her head, her quill writing along her piece of parchment as she took a few more notes. she wondered if these would come in handy! or be needed for n.e.w.t.s all of this information.. one could never be too safe, she figured and merlin she was already nervous about them! “tha might not be the worst thing in the world though. he doesn’t like very many people.. i don’t think at least.”

 𝓔ighteen years ago on All Hallows’ Eve, Marigold Van Zon was born. Six years ago, in the Muggle World, she stopped being passable to trick or treat. There are loads of things muggles  dream about doing on their eighteenth birthday, but this witch, now an adult in both realms, only had one wish as she blew out the candles on her football shaped birthday cake in Brighton, England.

To turn back the clock… for free candy.

It was a full proof plan, as far as Marigold was concerned. She mentally recounted it as she helped cleaned the rickety table of plates lined with colorful balloons: Have cake with her parents, Ruby, Vera, and Azaria ( and ignore the fact her older sister was nowhere to be found. check; ) excuse herself and her friends to traipse up the stairs of her family’s pink town home, close to the South Coast and Brighton Pier; avoid Marlo and Thora Van Zon’s eyes as they explain her birthday plans, “a quest for some good, wholesome fun,” when they ask; close and lock the door to her room, but not before making sure Ruby was long gone, so she wouldn’t be there to snoop… 

– Not that Goldie watching herself turn from eighteen year’s old to eight with the help of Vera’s wand, wasn’t wholesome. The only word that came to mind was surreal. Transfiguration happened to be her worst subject, so Merlin forbid she attempted the most difficult form: Human Transfiguration. She had a fear of being permanently injured, after all. It was more or less the fact that they were tricking muggles into giving them sweets. Not to mention, the three witches would have to be super duper careful and not’ve broken any Statutes of Secrecy with the time leading up to the Witching Hour, their curfew. The latter wasn’t exactly Goldie’s strong suit, and the former was something she’d feel very guilty about, if it wasn’t apart of the culture. 

But it was trick or treat. So, all they were really doing was trading a trick for a treat…

Marigold propped her pointed hat atop her head, beaming at her tiny crooked toothed self. Usually, she would go as a football player. But, there was something extra super silly about dressing up as a witch, while costumed in the ghost of Halloween’s past. “So, first up is free candy, then, we’ll sneak back here to stuff it all and take the transfigurations off. I have an invite for one of my old mate’s parties we should stop at. Last, but not least, we’ll top it all off with a broom ride across the moon!” She pumped her fist towards the ceiling. 

“Oh, and don’t forget to speak in tiny like voices!” Marigold said, the prosody of her thick, Brighton, England accent evident; albeit, squeakier. “We didn’t transfigure our voice box thing ma jigs…”

After handing Azaria and Vera the old decorative bags her family used to use for herself and her sisters on Halloween, she grabbed hands with them. They were apparating to another neighborhood for this adventure. If they trick or treated here, she’d give the neighbors she’d known all her life a stroke. 

Their surroundings began to transform as a bright light appeared. They disappeared with a pop. [ @verapamina, @azariascolors. ]

「 ✨ marigold has mentioned a canon object x18. 」 「 ✨ marigold has used human transfiguration as a disguise. 」

and just as they disappeared from the birthday girl’s bedroom with a pop, the halloween-y clad witches appeared somewhere else with yet another pop ! the sound of squealing, giggling children made a certain part vampire to scrunch her button nose, heightened ears not used to the sound of so many excited kids in one place– in one muggle neighborhood. vera stuck her head out from behind a bush, looking over the busy street to see multiple outfit clad muggle kids running around with their decorative bags and smiling faces, showing their parents or whoever was looking over them the amount of candy they have been given. the witch couldn’t believe she was going to be part of those kids, looking like an actual child to ask for free candy ! “ i can’t believe we really are doing this. ” she snorted with her usual grown-up-ish timbre, pulling her hands away from her friends’ hold to look down at the tinier visage of herself. again. she couldn’t believe how possible everything could be with the help of magic. truth be told, if she didn’t knew better, she would be shaking innocent shoulders stating that she was actually a seventeen year old student. she grinned, looking back at her favorite hufflepuffs with a certain gleam in her eyes. vera brambilla was ready to ask for free candy while looking like a child. “ let’s go, girls. ” her timbre was now tinier, squeakier, perfectly resembling the likes of a tinier vera. she grabbed their hands and dragged them out from their spot behind a rather giant bush, walking into the busy street to mix with the many excited kids. and with the certain hop in her step, vera mixed perfectly with them. 「 ☘️  vera used a felix felicis boost. 」 “ okay. so, we have to look fo’ the perfect house, right ? ” she asked, looking at the mechanical figures and spooky lights around the busy neighborhood. pfft, muggles. vera snorted. if only they knew magic existed. “ all o’ these houses look good. maybe we can go to that one ? ” she motioned to a certain house with a nod of her head, a small line of kids waiting for their turn to get candy in front of an opened, decorated door. “ it looks like a wizard is brewing candy there. ” her whisper is followed with a giggle, watching how said faux wizard gave candy to the last kid. her subtle hops pulled her away from her friends to near said line, the velvet skirt that she transfigured from the bottom of her velvet-y black leotard bouncing with her tinier self. apparently, vera has made her decision, little snicker following her figure as she got her decorative bag ready. “ trick or treat ! ” the witch beamed with a grin, vampire fangs all in display to the muggle in front of the hogwarts students. it was okay. it was halloween !       @azariascolors

「 ✨  vera has used human transfiguration as a disguise. 」 「 ✨  vera has mentioned a canon magical subject. x17 」  「 ✨  vera has apparated somewhere. 」  

azaria's features show just how amazed, and utterly fascinated she was-- hazel hues taking in everything with wonder. much like how someone would seeing magic for the first time. and to her this was that. she’d never seen until now, the way muggles did halloween. a wave of giddiness waved over her, at how she’d been trick or treating this year. muggle style! the way they did it. now that was proper amazing. never did she figure that was how this halloween would be spent.

that alone and being in the muggle neighborhood made her so excited, she could barely stand it! “this is so cool.” she whispers excitedly, wondering to herself how this whole thing worked. as she watched children running around excitedly and eating candy. it was cute!

it reminded her not to tell her parents as she was sure the pureblood irish couple would disapprove in an instant. it’d be their little secret as to how they spent the holiday. she figured what they didn’t know wouldn’t hurt them. and it’d ruin her fun anyway, so goodness she best not think of it! there’s a giggle as she glances at all the costumes, they were amazing. some were supposed to be scary, some were just cute and some were just funny to look at. not as good as wizard costumes because of you know.. magic but she didn’t care. she was amazed regardless.

as vera gestures towards a house there’s a nod of her head, just going with the flow of things. and hoping her friends would show her how thing whole thing worked. as it was her first time trick or treating-- bag opened as she held it out. “trick or treat!” she beams excitedly, as a handful of candy gets tossed into her bag. hazel colored hues widening at just how much candy that was, simply amazing! at this rate she’d have enough candy until next halloween. ‘wow.” as she turns to mouth to her friends. “that’s so much candy!” but it was meant in the best way as possible. thinking along the lines of why hadn’t she celebrated the muggle way before. as it just seemed like more fun than the way and she hadn’t even gotten to see a lot yet. it was just better than how she’d grown up as a witch that was. it wasn’t nearly as amazing as this! and it was muggle candy. not wizarding candy, and she honestly hadn’t had much muggle candy before either!

azaria nods her head excitedly in agreement, it was one of her favorite treats! it always seemed to brighten up even a dreary day. “thank ya! they are so good.” she voices the thought that was inside her head, a curious look on her features as pippa shares about her project. the look on the freckled redhead’s features showed a mixture of interest and curiosity. “muggle magazines you say..? that sounds interesting. i do think that’d be simply brilliant. it also sounds interesting and like it could be like fun.” to her it did seem that way, even if she had never heard of such a thing until pippa had just now told her about it. but she liked the sound of it and how it sounded interesting. “i’m in.” she says without much thought into it, but the idea of meeting someone potentially who had picked her too sounded interesting! worse come to worse she’d meet a new friend instead. she wouldn’t have been too surprised either if the gryffindor hadn’t expected her to agree so easily, but it didn’t take much to convince her! even if that may not have been the best thing. “exactly! tha is what i like the most about tha idea. so.. consider me definitely interested. so what’s first, pippa?”

as much as she thought potions safety was a topic that shouldn’t be overlooked,  irene still didn’t think that the assembly was  necessary.  of course,  it made sense to address the entire student body of hogwarts.  but there needn’t be an entire  ASSEMBLY.  she arrived at the great hall moments before the assembly was due to start. and while she would usually with her house,  she decided not to and went to sit at the hufflepuff table with her best friend.

“  hey,  ”  she grinned at azaria.  “  is it me or does it look like everyone’s  dreading  this assembly  ?  seems like everyone would rather spend their time with the giant squid.  ”  the half-vampire glanced around the room.

azaria sat at her house’s table, her mind wondering about the assembly-- not that it was entirely out of the ordinary for her mind to be rushing with thoughts. and if taking notes would be required, but just in case. she had her parchment, ink-- as well as her quill handy. quite literally, as her quill was twirling in her hands. there’s a beam and a wide smile as her best friend sits beside her. “hi ya! no it’s not just you.. i think everyone would rather spend their time with the giant squid. or be just ya know anywhere but here.” a giggle falls from her lips, as she places a hand on her hip and makes as much as a stern look as she can. not that she had ever seen snape with a hand on his hip, but it made her attempt at an impersonation funnier. "potions and potion safety are an important part of day to day life, it’s an insult! that anyone say otherwise.” not that professor snape had a very noticeable irish accent either, but she had tried. it was all in good fun, as professor snape supplied her daily potion and she didn’t have anything bad to say about him-- or anyone really. so she meant no ill intentions with it. it was just more so to make her best friend laugh, as it made herself laugh at how awful it was.

hufflepuff-b:

    one event such as that in which a professor would spend hours talking about a subject that was as useful to the hufflepuff boy as gillyweed was to a chimera - at least in tiberius’s view - would normally mean a few hours of extra sleep to rio, however, when the news came that that professor would be severus snape, the idea of napping faded into a mix of sadness and annoyance.

    bee attended the assembly on time, not one of the first to get there nor one of the last to arrive. he wasn’t really happy about all of that since he was only now reviewing the subject of that speech and finding out that it was way worse than he’d ever imagine. the boy sat down at the hufflepuff table in the great hall, lowering his head to meet a space between his arms while he waited for all of that to start. at some point he ended up falling asleep, and what felt like a few seconds turned into about five minutes.

    tiberius woke up at the clapping sound of something hitting the back of his neck, instinctively rising his head and blinking a few times to adapt his eyes to the lights of the room. it became obvious the source of such act as a voice distinguishable from others spoke to him.

    “perhaps some of you find my words dreary or even… tedious… but sleeping is  not  an option, mr. hufflepuff… pay attention.”  it was snape. and as soon as the dark figure turned its back on him, tiberius sighed silently, leading his hand to his neck shortly before looking to the person sitting right next to him.  “at least i didn’t get detention this time.”  he joked in a whisper and then smiled genuinely. @azariascolors

azaria scribbles down notes onto her parchment, paying the best attention she could-- hazel hues flicker to those around her, some looked bored from what she could tell. although, she had heard some people say it was daft to have an assembly about it. the red haired witch truthfully? didn’t have much of an opinion on it and was just happy to be hanging out with her fellow hufflepuff’s. where she always felt like she fit in. there’s a quiet laugh that falls from her lips, as she turns towards tiberius. “oh he means well, i’m sure.” she attempted to defend, with that of a reassuring smile. “but i’m glad you didn’t get detention this time.” 「 ✨  azaria attended the assembly on time 」  「 ✨  azaria has defended snape 」  「 ✨  azaria has taken notes 」  「 ✨  azaria has used a wizarding idiom x1 」

            “ just the person i was looking for. “  pippa grinned when she spotted azaria, a wizarding camera tucked under her arm. “ i had a feeling i could find you down here. “  though she was smiling, the witch was scheming – all with the best interests of her friend kept in mind. “ have you got enough sweets to spare ?  or should i go inside and grab some before i try to corner you again. “  she giggled.

“ya were really looking for me?” azaria inquires with a raise of eyebrows, more so in confusion. as hazel hues see the wizarding camera, but she internally shrugs figuring her friend would share if she was supposed to know. but her smile widens further. “well, i’m honored ye thought of me! and definitely, never know who you’ll run into so i made sure to get enough so i could share. got some pumpkin pasties and some other delicious sweets.” oh, how the wizarding world had good treats and food! a laugh falls from her lips as she quickly shakes her head. “shh! it’s fine, i’m happy ta see ya really.”

scyre: 

       walking stride for stride with the irish national quidditch team seeker,  monty listened to his teammate prattle on about the day’s practice.  it had been gruelling;  they had another sponsorship match in three weeks and their captain was in true form.  they’d spent six hours in the air, so long that his fingers were practically blistering from gripping his broom handle. he’d rubbed them down with a healing potion but his muscles still ached from the exertion.  he yawned, realizing that he’d zoned out on whatever his teammate was saying, long enough so that the seeker was staring at him.  he blinked.  “ yes. “  he replied slowly, hoping that was an acceptable answer.  judging by the frown on the seeker’s face, it wasn’t.  he sighed.  “ drinks are on me. “  he reached into his pocket, pulling out a couple of galleons and handing them over.  “ i’ll find us somewhere to sit. “ 

   with his broom shouldered, monty glanced around the room.  he found a table easily, recognizing the red headed irish witch at the next table over.  he nodded in azaria’s direction, taking the seat closest to her and spinning it around so he could see her properly.  “ wotcher, kinsella. “  he shrugged.  “ m’good. tired. practice, practice, and more practice. “  he grimaced.  “ just stopping off for a pint before i head home. “  he noticed her books, the grimace intensifying.  “ ah, looks like you’re elbows deep in revision.”  he clicked his tongue against his teeth.  “ n.e.w.t.s. were awful. “   of course, for monty,they weren’t quite so  terrible.  he’d had the UNFORTUNATE advantage of having written them once before when he’d taken them at the end of term.  failing, it would seem, had its advantages.

there’s a nod of azaria’s head, in understanding at monty’s answer. although, she personally didn’t play but knew people who did. so, she kind of understood but not really the same time. “ah, i see-- quidditch practice seems and sounds like it’d be rather tiring.” so if that were the case she could understand wanting a pint afterwards. “oi, at least a pint makes everything better.” people said anyways, the redhead just went along with it. appreciating the distraction and break from her prior thoughts and how cloudy the visit made her head, it always gave her a lot to think about and how so worried about her-- her parents seemed to be and how worried they were. how they were worried about her not taking her potion at the same interested time. it was just a lot. it made her thankful, that she not only had someone to chat with now but that she didn’t have to think about everything anymore. not right now at least. “it seems that way, gives me something to do. revision isn’t so bad, not at the moment. at least.” there’s a laugh that falls from her lips, at n.e.w.ts. oh blimey! had she heard how awful they were. and how she should be prepared for that. “i’m so not ready for them.. at all. merlin everyone has me so worried already. saying how tough and everything they are. but i’m doing ta best i can to be optimistic that it’s a different experience for everyone.”

anamalcrit:

     for the most part, ana found herself avoiding the kitchens if she could because she preferred to eat with her housemates or a friend rather than alone in the kitchens. for some reason, that was just weird to her. today, anastasia just so happened to have run out of time before classes started to grab something. not wanting to wait for lunch, the slytherin found herself walking down the halls, tickling the fruit on the painting to the kitchens and slipping in to grab something quick.  she grabbed a pumpkin juice and some toast, sitting off to the side not to bother the house elves that seemed hard at work. ana almost jumped when azaria spoke. “hey there,” she smiled, after she finished eating.

azaria has her bag over her shoulder filled with books, opting to take a break from her studying-- and being at the library previously. so it was nice to have a snack break with some pumpkin pasties and pumpkin juice. no such thing as too much pumpkin! “sorry.. didn’t mean ta scare ya.” she apologizes to the slytherin with that of an apologetic smile, she always liked visiting with the house elves and being down in the kitchens. it reminded her a lot of home, and sitting in the kitchen with her parents and the chatter.. although, it wasn’t the same as she wasn’t in ireland. and there wasn’t any chatter until now, but it was a nice memory and a nice thought. “i can come back later.. i didn’t mean ta bother ya either.”

admittedly one of azaria’s favorite things or one of them anyways-- about hogwarts was the kitchens. and just how close it was to the hufflepuff common room. it was perfect for sweets! admittedly, she’d been rather happy to have stopped by for some pumpkin pasty’s. as well as a few other treats that had gotten shoved into her bag for safe keeping. hazel hues fall onto a familiar face as there’s a wave of one of her hands. “hi ya, friend!”

open to first one or two characters.

enchanted compact mirror placed in front of her on top of parchment and her seventh year books. which were stacked neatly in front of her; beside the ink and quill. having just touched up her hair with a charm, it no longer a light shade of hair and now it was the ginger color she knew all to well. wand twirls in her hand, as she sips on her butterbeer. a girls got to have something to do! and best believe the red haired witch had been keeping busy whilst she had waiting previously on her parents-- for dad to finish taking care of dragons ( or at least she had presumed ) as well as her mom to show up. hence why she was in hogsmeade. it wasn’t out of the ordinary. they not only owled but were within distance to come and visit as they pleased. the owls usually were for setting up times for when they’d come to see her. it was to check in to see how seventh year was, making sure she was taking her potion. that she hadn’t needed to go to the hospital wing for anything. that she wasn’t playing with her ability-- that she was being careful. it seemed endless of hushed questions and inquires, fear that their daughter would be cast out if they knew of it and honestly? she didn’t have much of an opinion on it. anyone else would have been upset with inquires and pestering! but after so long of it, she’d just come to nod her head and say yes. so they wouldn’t smother her, or smother her with concerns.

nobody wanted that! especially when now most of the time; time was spent in scotland within close distance to her in particular at hogwarts. although; the home was kept in ireland. as well as the kinsella family summer home. her sisters had stayed in ireland and truthfully? the irish witch only seen them during the summer, too busy with their own lives and not often did they owl either. one of her sisters worked creating robes and hats. the other two were quote bloody ‘undecided’ as both had said. but she wasn’t too upset over it! it is what it was, and she loved them regardless. it must have been just a sister thing. even if she had never particularly been close with them. the hufflepuff is left in her thoughts after the visit, having listened to how the dragons were and how mom was. how mom had been just keeping busy. nothing too interesting to report! she practices with her other drink stirring the straw around wandlessly and although it budges a little bit. it doesn’t move quite as far as she would have liked. as hazel hues glance upwards she spots someone, startling her slightly. “merlin! i didn’t even see ya there, hi ya! how are ya?”

     “i’m tellin’ ya, az,” donny plopped himself down on the bench of the hufflepuff table next to his redheaded friend, yellow and black school robes flowing back behind him. “those first years, sweet as they can be,” he paused shaking his head for emphasis, “they’re bleedin’ wreckin’ my head! it’s been quite sometime since the year’s started ‘n they’re still comin’ up with new questions everyday.”

azaria gives donny that of an apologetic smile, unsure if there was anything she could do to help or make things better. but that wouldn’t keep her from trying! “if ya ever need anything or a distraction i’m here.” the irish witch says with a reassuring nod of her head. “aw, i’m really sorry they're giving you such a hard time." she couldn’t imagine it was easy, but she also didn’t blame them for asking questions-- even if she didn’t know what kinds of questions per se. “wow, tha sounds like a lot.. and like ya could use a break!”
