NAZLI DEMIRTAS.

“nah,” they grit their teeth and shake their head, squirming a little from sheer DISCOMFORT but staying steadfast in their resolve, “i’ll be okay in a minute. it’s just a flare up.” they hoped, though they were fairly confident. it’s not the WORST it’s ever been, and they’ve gotten pretty good at judging when they need to panic, over the years. what hurts more is their PRIDE and having to admit temporary defeat in the first place ; they hadn’t been enjoying the party, exactly, but they did wish they were able to jump right back in. worse still is the fact they don’t want to sit through it alone, and it takes a long moment of obvious deliberation, but they finally manage, “will you stay with me a bit, though? for company?”

“ of your liver? it’s probably too late to tell you to stay away from the fireball then, huh. ” cho answered, her tone intending to sound light like she was aiming her rhetoric question to sound like a joke but failed. instead she cleared her throat to advert the attention and swiped up some paper towels nearby before handing it to them. “ yeah, ” she answered while already taking a seat on the floor beside them. “ i was planning to anyway. ” her features softened momentarily, remnants of a smile tugging at the corners of her lips before her posture shot back up and straightened. “ how are you liking the party? you know... before this. ”

VIKTOR KRUM.

viktor genuinely loved watching quidditch. it didn’t matter where he was, who he was watching ━ he’d easily consider it his very first love. there was something about the feeling of flying, practically feeling untouchable when you would catch snitch after snitch. it was an even better feeling knowing that people felt the exact same way as you. at least he knew it was the case for cho. an unexpected correspondence between the two ━ trying to attend games as a means of support and simply owl’ing to speak of how they done. but this time, viktor had got word through to the tornados’ coach, saying that he was waiting for cho outside.

“you know..” krum starts as he spots her, pushing himself away from the wall he was leaning against with a grin. “i should just let you have a ride of my broom for once.” he doesn’t pick up on the innuendo, meaning it as face value. “this game lasted a little too long.”

it had become an unintentional tradition for cho and a few of her teammates to spend the rest of the evening in hogsmeade, perched behind a bar and revelling in their win — that is, if they did win said match. those were her intended plans for tonight, but after getting word through her coach that krum had paid a visit, she excused herself from celebrating over beers provided by the three broomsticks. this also had become an unintentional tradition for the two — visiting each others games, though it was usually without the other knowing. after getting herself cleaned up, cho weaved her way out of the locker room and weaved her way through the crowds that were not exiting the stadium. his familiar silhouette caught her attention, and she couldn’t help the subtle roll of her eyes at his words, though spared him no less of a chuckle once she let the words marinade. “ well, if i had known you were coming... ” for emphasise she paused. hoping with her heavy tone on the word, it’d sink in. the amused smirk on her features still very much present as she spoke. “ my last letter would have been requesting to borrow it, rather than picking at your previous game. ” she laughed again this time. “ is that what you’re here to do? ”

NAZLI DEMIRTAS.

“sorry, someone is-” in here, they almost manage, though the door is open before they can FINISH the statement. hunched over on the edge of a clawfoot bathtub and hugging their sides tightly with both arms, nazli isn’t exactly in a position capable of forcing the door closed, again, or stopping it from opening in the first place, and they breath an audible sigh of relief that against all the odds, it is cho’s familiar head that pops around the door. “hey,” they feign composure, somehow managing ( they’re quite self impressed, honestly ) to beckon her in, further, “shut the door, would you?”

“ — just me. ” cho started in unison with naz’s voice once she realised who was occupying the room. she had barely stepped her foot in before they turned around and as if on cue, cho immediately slipped herself through the door and closed it behind her, locking it in the process to avoid any more unwanted intruders. “ what happened to you? ” cho hesitated for a second before she stepped forward and placed a hand on their back, arching forward. call it a reflex, she wasn’t sure. “ can i get you anything? ”

AJAY MISHRA.

❝ 𝒊 𝒋𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒅𝒐𝒏’𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌 𝒊’𝒎 built for it , honestly , ❞ ajay shrugs , cheerfully nihilistic about the whole situation now knowing that he , a simple academic from a wandshop’s back room , was paired with cho chang , actual professional athlete . the charity portion of this whole endeavor had blinded him to the true nature of the game and he would be the first to admit that he was , perhaps , a bit in over his head . ❝ now , which leg are you willing to sacrifice ? ❞ he shakes each leg in turn , as if to show off what cho has to work with . ❝ because i could go either way and you get to choose between toothpicks . ❞

“ don’t knock yourself down too early in the game, we’ve barely started. ” cho answered easily, hoping that the lightness of attempt at a joke was enough to possibly ease the nervous vibe she was getting from him. “ i don’t believe whatever our dominant hand is plays a huge role in what we choose, so... i think i’ll sacrifice my left. ” truthfully, it was her that was the nervous one but it was also too early in the game for her competitive nature to come out. especially since this was all for a good cause, after all. “ i hope you’ve built your stamina up. ”

JOSEPHINE DIGGORY.

“I’m meant to be Francine,” Josie explains, red converse dragging nervously across the floor as she nurses the same drink she’s been working on for the past hour ( it’s VODKA and ORANGE JUICE – horribly watered down by this point, with the ice long melted and creating a horribly diluted MESS that has done absolutely NOTHING to quell her anxiety over being here ), though she remains STEADFAST in her resolve to finish it, still occasionally sipping at it through a curly straw. She’s never considered herself to be the LIFE OF A PARTY – not like she’d seen from Nellie and heard about Cedric, but HALLOWEEN had always been a favourite of hers – a chance for people to show off their IMAGINATIONS and pretend, just for a minute, to be something other than the roles life had relegated them to.

“From Arthur,” She continues, unsure if the person she’s explaining her costume choice even particularly CARES what she’s wearing, but in too deep now to turn back. “It’s a kids’ cartoon. Been going since 1996, if you can believe. I’d have thought they’d run out of material by now, but apparently not.” A pause, “There’s people dressed as Arthur and Buster, too, so I’m not like… a complete weirdo, I swear.”

“ arthur, as in mr weasley? i didn’t know he had family named francine. ” cho started, though almost immediately regretting asking once she continued to elaborated. that didn’t stop her eyebrows from itching closer and closer together the more she looked at josie’s costume — trying her best to figure out who and what she was talking about. for some reason, her mind wandered to her best friends father. it was a good costume. a great, even. cho wished that she had thought of a costume that required more comfortable clothing. her eyebrows relaxed and her mouth turned into an ‘ o ’ shape at the realisation, a humourless breath coming out of her mouth. “ you don’t look like a weirdo at all, i like it. ” she added, and cho had been honest about that. “ my costume isn’t even half as original as yours but if you can guess who i am then i’ll get you a drink. ”

KNOX BELLAMY.

“sure, let’s say they’re fake.” with a simple shrug, knox glided around blackwood house as the party commenced. she practically blended into the shadows with her old themed black dress though stuck out because of her pale painted skin. it was strange, being around people like this again. at a party no less. there wasn’t a time she remembered where she had fun at parties, including her hogwarts days after slytherin would win a quidditch match. or her drunken nights after the death of her mother. though she really didn’t count those considering she hardly remembered them. it was all an inconsistent blur, really.

knox found herself in the corner, next to another who apparently had the same idea as her and sighed. “now what are you doing way over here when the booze and sweaty bodies are all the way over there?” it was a simple question, though she hardly cared if it they had ignored her or not. it was sort of testing the waters, seeing if her corner buddy would talk her ear off for the night or stand with her quietly and watch everyone else make a fool of themselves as the night wears on. “bored already?”

“ funnily enough, that’s not what’s scary to me about your appearance tonight. ” cho started, bringing her drink to her lips once she decided to not completely dismiss knox, though didn’t spare her as much as a glance either. it had been years since they last spoke. and with everything that had happened since her abrupt disappearance, it was easy to assume that what happened was water under the bridge. but not in cho’s case, and she couldn’t help it if she was going to make that obvious tonight. “ not bored. ” she added, hues momentarily sweeping over her. “ i was just giving you the chance to approach me first. which worked, apparently. ”

AUGUSTINE VERNE.

“shit.” augustine dropped her drink, some atrocious orange and radioactive looking candy cane-flavored cocktail. the glass luckily didn’t shatter but the bright orange drink spilt across the ground. “you didn’t see that.”

“ see what? ” cho answered with feign confusion, though the small smile that began forming at her lips didn’t help her case. “ i think you did yourself a favour by dropping it, the drink tastes like goblin piss. ” she added, handing her another drink that looked less spooky than the first. “ here, i got this for you instead. ”

DIONISIA BELBY.

“it’s a shame, really.” dionisia knelt in front of a cluster of pumpkins, inspecting them. black rot marked a few already, an inevitability, but if she had any say here (and to be clear, she did not) this section would’ve already been purged. best to cut off the source of the infection before it spread. “you would be surprised how likely this stuff spreads.” with that she stood up. “i’d look elsewhere. even if you only want to carve them, these ones won’t last long.”

“ merlin, there’s about a hundred of them in this section. ” cho muttered, followed by a further string of muttered curses as she pushed herself up to stand. “ what a complete waste. ” cho wasn’t exactly sure what was fuelling her to become unnecessarily overemotional about pumpkins, but here she was, staring at the rest of them with a frown that was way too prominent... again, about pumpkins. “ is there anything else you can do with them? ”

RHEA HOLIDAY.

“You know what this place is missing?” An open box of Bertie Bott’s rattled in her hands as Rhea gestured about. Her face was lit with a creeping smile, a beacon of freedom and excitement for a moment. “A Ferris Wheel. I know, I know, they’re a very muggle creation and all that, but really–they’re a lot of fun. You get to just relax and–yeah. I dunno, I just think even the wizarding world could benefit from something like that at a festival like this.”

“ i don’t know. ” cho started, nose scrunched just at the thought. she wasn’t afraid of heights, per se. cho just preferred to be on her broom when taken to such higher altitudes, but the thought of a ferris wheel ( or any carnival realted rides ) sure did seem like a missed opportunity for entertainment. “ i always thought bumper cars were more fun. definitely not for relaxing, but fun. ” she shrugged, turning to rhea with the same amount of enthusiasm. “ have you ever been on one? ”

ORIANA TRELAWNEY.

“i got you a hot chocolate.” oriana said as they walked up to cho. in one hand they held cho’s hot chocolate, extended towards her, and in her other, they held their own. it wasn’t the best they’d had, but it was cold enough that subpar hot chocolate was appreciated. “consider it a thank you for helping me pick out the perfect pumpkin.”

“ oh, thank you. ” cho started, accepting the unexpected ( though very much appreciated ) gesture. she nursed the warm cup in her hands as she adverted her gaze forward, hues hovering around to find her own perfect pumpkin. cho adverted her gaze forward, hues hovering around to find her own perfect pumpkin. “ glad i could be of some help. ” she added, tight lipped smile covering her features, not at all trying to sound like she was reiterating their last interaction, but her tone didn’t stop itself either. “ are you participating in the relay race later? ”
