The slow leak of secrets over the night hadn’t gone over his head, he saw as they were released one by one, not even giving the people of an option to be dared or not like last time. Still he thought he was safe, they had targeted him before and therefore wouldn’t target him again. Right? Or wrong. Seeing his name attached to not one, but two of the things he had been keeping hidden caused his stomach to churn. But being the type of person that he was, he chose not to deal with it tonight, instead he chose to drink. More and more before the feeling of dread slipped to the back of his mind and was instead replaced of one which was warm and fuzzy. 

“I’m fine, really-… just peachy.” He said in response to a look in his direction from people he didn’t know, he could feel himself swaying as he drained the rest of his glass, part of him being happy that he chose the Hogsmeade party over the one at Hogwarts meaning alcohol was easy to come by. When someone new came into his line of vision he let out a large sigh, “I said I was fine, no need to check up on me.” 

"You do look anything but peachy,” Elide observed when she heard her fellow colleague’s comment. When the rumours started flying around, she completely switched off and focused on enjoying the night. She knew it was only going to get worse and anyone could be next, so it was better to pretend as if nothing was happening. “Do you need a hand to get back to the castle or do you have other plans?”

“I did think you’re going to be attending the ball,” Nesta commented. “Did you miss me so terribly that you simply had to stop by and decided to stay?” She added, poking her friend on the arm.

@elideweasley

"But of course I missed you, my dear,” Elide patted her friend on the arm. “You keep forgetting to visit me, so I had to venture out,” she added, winking at Nesta.

“That is one huge cookie,” Morty observed. “Where can I get one? Unless you’re feeling generous and want to share..?” He asked, giving his friend a big smile.

@elideweasley

"Something tells me you’re not going to let me walk away without giving you at least one bite,” Elide noted, rising an eyebrow at the other in question. “How much exactly do you want?”

👻 - my muse scares yours or vice versa + @elideweasley​

Nesta screamed loudly when her friend popped up out of nowhere and scared the living daylights out of her. “I did not like that. I did not like that one bit, Elide Weasley,” she huffed when she calmed down enough to speak.

"Come on, Ness. You have to admit that it was funny,” Elide chuckled. She had to clear her throat as her voice sounded a bit off, but she chose to ignore it for now.

🎯 - our muses play carnival games together

“I’m honestly not sure I am in the mood for this Elide… I only really came out for a short while. Mainly so I could get some food if I am being honest, hence the half-arsed attempt at a costume.” He motioned to himself. 

@elideweasley​

"Honestly, I don’t know who is worse right now, you or Nesta,” she huffed, shaking her head. “Why bother coming at all if you’re just going to complain?” Elide asked.

🍬 - our muses eat halloween candy together

“I have a feeling I’m going to have to see my dentist after this,” Cyrus said, half jokingly to the other. “Do you always eat this much candy at Halloween? I don’t usually but I guess it’s been a rough year.”

@elideweasley​

"I suppose it depends on the time of the month,” Elide joked. “I’m used to stuffing my face and my father often teases me I may actually be uncle Ron’s daughter,” she added, rolling her eyes.

charles-villiers​:

Charles had no bloody clue what he was doing there. Perhaps he got bored of drinking on his own, perhaps he wanted a bigger variety of drinks. He took some time off work for personal reasons, but now he wished he could just focus on cases and not have the time for anything else. He did hope he was going to be sent some place else very soon. He doubted that was going to help him in any way, but he was ready to try anything. He was staring at the wall when he sensed someone was standing nearby. “Yes?” He asked, his voice hoarse. “Do you need anything?”

Elide was a bit worried when she hadn’t seen her friend for a couple of days and he didn’t reply to any of her messages. “I wanted to check on you,” she admitted. “Are you okay?” Elide asked, deciding not to comment on how he seemed to be tipsy.

nesta-g​:

Nesta was dealing with a pretty bad hangover and the whole world was still spinning around her. What made that day even worse, was that she ran out of coffee and needed to leave her flat to buy something. She ordered a plain toast and a strong coffee, then sat in a dark corner and waited for her order. She closed her eyes and barely registered when someone suddenly started speaking to her. “Uh… What was that?” She asked after a moment, barely raising her head to look at the other.

“You’re looking cheerful,” Elide observed, a little smirk showing up on her face. “Rough night?”

[elideweasley]

"I have been trying to learn how to knit for months and I am nowhere near ready for winter season. I wanted to make grandma a sweater but at this point I think it will mostly include my tears and sweat rather than anything else,” Elide muttered, taking a small sip of her hot chocolate.

“That was almost my exact reaction when I heard about these ‘Olympics’,” Cyrus chuckled in amusement. “It’s an attempt to bring everyone together despite all the bad things going on lately.”

"It’s certainly quite a welcoming present. And there’s nothing more collaborative than competing against each other,” Elide drawled.

sofiasogood​:

Sofia listened to the conversation with amusement, unable to stop herself from laughing under her breath at the woman’s surprise. Thanking the barista for her coffee, she moved to where the girl was stood. “Are you ready to head to the game together?” Sofia interrupted, feeling a little as though her presence might be welcomed given the strange conversation that was happening with the stranger. 

"Not particularly. I would prefer to finish my coffee in peace and just watch people fail,” Elide shrugged in reply.

nesta-g​:

“Lazybones,” Nesta teased. “I told you to get up earlier and get ready for exercise.”

"I think I’m good. Let’s just get drinks and judge people instead, that sounds like more fun.”

fredsweasleyii​:

“Training Elide, training,” Fred emphasized. “It’ll be fun! My team lost, but you’re yet to play. You gotta Weasley represent!”

“How about we switch places? I could totally pretend I was in your team all along and you can just take my place,” Elide suggested.

[elideweasley]

skyemacdougal​:

“Oh, it’s not me that what’s you to join,” Skye said, laughing softly. “I just thought that you were on that team.” She points to the one getting together for the next set of events, happy to know that her events were over for the time being. “Maybe you’ll be able to finish your coffee after all,” she offered.

“I have no clue on which team I’m supposed to be as I don’t really know these people,” Elide shrugged. “At least now everything’s done anyway.”

natalyadolohova​:

“We have a challenge. Rock climbing. I thought we could go and practice.” Natalya answered simply, as if it were the most normal thing in the world to be asking.

"It’s just climbing, why would you need to practice?” Elide raised an eyebrow, not entirely certain why she needed to spend her time practising something so easy.
