everyone's equal when they're dead

dashiell bardon 5th year gryffindor 1/8th veela, halfblood dumbledore's army " Little people know, when little people fight, we may look easy pickings, but we've got some bite. So never kick a dog because it's just a pup! We'll fight like twenty armies, and we won't give up!"

Hugo fell on the couch beside Dash, shaking his head. Poking at Dash’s shoulder once he tilted his head away from his view, he reminded him, “I didn’t catch any of that, but I do wish we could focus more on skills that will help us with what’s going on. I’m sure you feel the same way. Seems like everyone else…well, I don’t know what they’re thinking right now. I just know it’s not helping.”

“Oh!” Dash propped his head up immediately. “Sorry dude, I did it again.” Out of embarrassment, he punched Hugo in the arm for his mistake. “Don’t get me started, Hugo. I feel so helpless, but I know there’s something we can do to help. There’s gotta be something, right? I just-- Things are... pretty bad for us right now, and I think we should do something to help. I don’t know what, but... No one will even see it coming.”

It hadn’t been the best of weeks for Annette, between James’ weird–and really mean–outburst at her and she and Dash not speaking. It made her sad, and made her question whether maybe they were both right–maybe she was just a silly frivolous girl who got on everyone’s nerves. So when Dash called at her from across the common room, she couldn’t have been more relieved. She hurried over, smile lighting up her face as she hugged him from behind, “Hey Dasher–how’s my favorite reindeer today?” There was no mention of their fight–which was how things usually went between them–and Annette didn’t really want to discuss it anyway. Dash loved her, she knew, so he had meant well even if she disagreed. That was all that mattered.

Annette was probably only one of the people he could effortlessly lift up, so when she hugged him that was exactly what he did, spinning around once before putting her down. And that was all it took for their relationship to snap back to normal. “I’ve had such a long day, Annette. I lost Texas for a while, and had to talk to Ophelia Parkinson! Of all people, her! That put a huge damper on my day, but then I spoke to Camila.” Dash paused a bit as his stretched to fit the full diameter of his face, his cheeks blushing slightly. “Anyway, yeah, that was nice.”

“I just don’t get it?” Hugo threw up a shrug. “My mum has admitted that it’s not totally worthless, but I have yet to see how it’s helped anyone recently. It just makes me hungry.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“I mean...” Dash signed dramatically, leaning back into the couch and throwing his head back. “I don’t know if it’s true, I heard it from my sis, but apparently it was going to be scrapped, so like... it obviously can’t be that important.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

Dash hadn’t talked to Annette in a few of days, which felt like centuries with several generations of dinosaurs going extinct. It was the longest they’d manage to avoid each other, but Dash couldn’t handle it any longer. As Annette walked through the common room, he called out at the top of his lungs so there was no way she could miss it. “Hey Annette!!!”

[catparkinson-blog]

“Please, we all know Texas BBQ always preferred me over you. In fact, all of your cats did. It’s not my fault your pets know a better human when they sense one.” 

Ophelia tried to ignore Dash’s biting words. She couldn’t show weakness to him and she wouldn’t. “You’re beginning to make me wish I had taken him.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Well, that’s just outright rubbish! Even if they had preferred you, they wouldn’t anymore, because you’re a Death Eater and a liar.” 

“Ophelia, if you know where Texas is, just tell me so I don’t have to talk to you anymore.”

[ablcze-blog]

“Please, stop twisting my words around, Dash, seriously. Just pass me that damn letter.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Alright, alright. Fine. Only because I know you’ve got a soft spot for me.”

James didn’t see what was so good about it, since he wasn’t joking. “I was told by Lily to drop any dad act, so you’re best off showing that homework to someone else. And I’m not stressed. I’m quite calm. It seems everyone else, really, that’s rather distressed. You aren’t going to bother telling me about this bad day of yours, are you?”

“Ohhhhhhh....” Having figured that James and Lily had gotten into an argument, Dash suddenly felt very awkward, and it was evident in his tone. He knew there was a reason for James’ odd behaviour. He wasn’t the same when he wasn’t talking to Annette and Nat either. “Don’t worry, dude. I’ll just tell you another time. Hope you make up with Lily, though. Catch you later?”

DIAD + Pitch Perfect

ft. the Bardon siblings (In which Annette gets very serious about karaoke night)

[hugosweaslcy-blog]

“Can’t I just skip Divination and take another section of DADA instead? Really. Counter-jinxes or palm reading?  Not that hard to figure out which is more practical right now. I’ve got lip reading down. Isn’t that enough?”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“If only life was that easy, bro. I don’t think I can handle another hour of cracking eggs open and looking at the yolk. I mean, it’s just so weird, I don’t get how anyone could like it.”

[licnboy-blog]

“Whoa, slow down, will you?”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Dodge the cards, Leon! That’s the point of the game. Dodge them, dodge them, c’mon, what are you doing?!”

[ablcze-blog]

“A ticket to heaven for being such a kind person, I guess.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Are you trying to call me an angel? Wow, Camila, stop flirting with me, seriously.”

[catparkinson-blog]

“Careful, your face could get stuck that way. Squinty-eyed-Dash gives me a headache and I’d hate to have to look at it everyday.” 

“As for your cat, maybe he ran away to find a better owner. I know I would.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Well, luckily for you, I don’t want you to look at it every day, even though I would loooooove for you to get a headache.” 

“You are so-- Take that back! Texas BBQ wouldn’t ever want to run away, but he would if you owned him, I’m sure of it.”

Ara grumbled, lifting her head from its place on the table so she could narrow her eyes at Dash. Her head hurt too much for this. “What’s Annette done this time?”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

Dash paced back and forth, huffing and puffing as he loosened his tie and unbuttoned his collar. “Annette...” Another sigh. “My sister! She thinks... Dear lord, she thinks Matty Leshit is attractive!”

[jspotterii-blog]

“Probably, yes. You really ought to slow down.” This kid had far too much energy. It was trying to ruin James’ wave of calm. “Finally someone who at least gets that I want to be alone. I’ll find somewhere else though, unless that ‘everyone’ you speak of includes you? Don’t you have some more homework to do? Or do you really just enjoy following people around that much?”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Good one, James!” Dash’s smile momentarily wavered, and he had to force a laugh to not seem so sensitive, hand placed on his chest for extra effect. “I have loads of homework to do! But, uh, you know, I wanted to tell you about the homework and all of that. It’s cool, though. It’s calm. I’ll leave as well, sure. Don’t be too stressed, though. Everyone has bad days. I actually had one the other day.”

[ablcze-blog]

“Hey, can someone pass me that letter that says, ‘To my favourite loser.’? That’s mine.”

[dashbxrdon-blog]

“Hmm... I don’t know... What do I get in return?”
