glitter and gold

[elyanambroise]

-wakes up in the Hospital Wing after a Quidditch mishap and is a little offended that people aren't all clustered round his bed weeping- … ow.

[safiagoyle]

-has been waiting for her neighbour to wake up to give her someone to talk to, after checking that there was nothing too bloody about his injuries, Merlin knows she didn’t need to faint again- I can highly recommend Madam Pomfrey’s pain-relieving spells for that. -smiles brightly-

[elyanambroise]

-blinks blearily at her, realising she is not here from Quidditch- Uh, thank you? -doesn't really have a choice of pain-relieving spells anyway; wonders why she is in the Hospital Wing if she looks so happy-

[safiagoyle]

-realises she should tone it down, given the poor guy has only just woken up- Sorry, I got excited that you’d woken up, I’m bored and Pomfrey won’t let me leave before I can stand without feeling dizzy, for some ridiculous reason. -rolls eyes jokily- What did you do to yourself?

[elyanambroise]

It's ok, I'm just... y'know... half-dead. -probably a little dramatic. he hopes- Whaaaat? How silly of her. -attempt at humour successful- I think I fought a Bludger and lost. They always said Quidditch would be my undoing. -is still a bit foggy, not entirely sure who "they" is-

[safiagoyle]

Yeah, I hate to break it to you, but I think you’re on death’s door. -jokes, hopes he’s awake enough to get it’s a joke- Ouch, this is why I refuse to go anywhere near the Quidditch pitch. Apart from the fact I’m deathly scared of flying. -decides not to go on the ‘if we were meant to fly, we’d have wings’ spiel-

[elyanambroise]

-clutches hand to chest- And no-one could be bothered to turn up? See if I leave them in my will. -deep, long-suffering sigh- See, this is why you're in Ravenclaw and I am a mere Gryffindor. We are not smart people.

[safiagoyle]

Oof, that’s cold-hearted of you. Your team was in here earlier but Pomfrey threw them out because you “needed to rest”. Betcha feel bad now, huh? -grins- Hm, you say that but I’m the only one who splinched themself in our Apparating class. Ravenclaws aren’t all we’re cracked up to be.

[elyanambroise]

Oh, Merlin, now I've disowned them all for nothing... what a cruel twist of fate. That is a relief, though, I thought they'd all abandoned me in my hour of need. -winces- Ok, yes, on second thoughts I prefer my injuries. At least all my body parts are still connected.

[safiagoyle]

It’s ok, I won’t sell you out to them. -amused by his dramatic sense of humour- Was it a match or just, like, “fun”? -uses inverted commas because how anyone could find flying fun is beyond her- Yeah, apparently I passed out when I saw the blood. -makes disgusted face- So be grateful that most of your injuries are internal! Wait, that sounds worse.

[elyanambroise]

You are my only true friend, and I will repay this kindness. -nods emphatically- Just fun, or it was fun until I nearly died. -snorts- Ok Bella Swan. -eyes widen in slight alarm- Yikes, that doesn't sound good at all. Am I actually on death's door? Should I be planning my funeral? I would love for Taylor Swift to perform.

[safiagoyle]

Yay! -beams; loves making friends- Hey, that's rude, I make somewhat better decisions than Bella. But she is sensible for hating the sight of blood. -thinks Twilight is unironically fantastic- No, I was joking! I just meant, like, you’re bruised but not actually bleeding or something. Oh Merlin that would be amazing! You realise you would miss out on Taylor performing if you were dead though, right?

[elyanambroise]

Well, you could have an 108-year-old vampire boyfriend, for all I know. True... I think that may be the only sensible thing she does in all four books. Huh. -sigh of relief- Thank Merlin. I'm too young to die. Yes, this is true. Maybe I should fake my death. Ok, then during Look What You Made Me Do I could crawl out of my coffin, that would be extremely fabulous.

[safiagoyle]

I would never have a 108-year-old vampire boyfriend. A 108-year-old vampire girlfriend, though... I could be tempted. Especially if it was Alice. -shakes herself out of her reverie- Anyway. Yeah she’s the stupidest main character ever, but I love her. -nods enthusiastically- Erm, yes, that sounds amazing, I would totally be there for that. -wonders if they’re both high on pain spells, like Muggles can get from pain meds-

[elyanambroise]

Ah, I see, you're more of an Alice girl than an Edward girl. -nods sagely- She is incredibly stupid, but we adore her and her horrible taste anyway. Great! … this is a very weird conversation, but it's nice to meet a fellow Swiftie. We should really form a club.

[safiagoyle]

Definitely, although they did her hair so dirty in the sequels. -sad face- Absolutely! It’s great to meet a Swiftie and Twilight fan, we’re a rare breed here, you have to stick together. -nods seriously- 

[elyanambroise]

They really did hit perfection in the first film and then throw it straight in the bin for the sequels. The greatest tragedy the world has ever known. -sighs- We do! -eyes her speculatively- Do you require any matchmaking?

[safiagoyle]

You’re so right! Although I really liked the fake-out battle scene in Breaking Dawn 2. -eyes suspiciously- Um, I’m afraid to ask you to expand on that?

[elyanambroise]

That was truly the magnum opus of film. -grins- Well, as it turns out, I am fantastic at matchmaking, so if you require any... -salutes-

[safiagoyle]

Me and Bas get to pick a movie every other birthday to watch and I always pick the Twilight movies, and he pretends to be annoyed but really I know he’s delighted to be watching the best movies in the world. -nods- Ooh, really? Who have you match-made? I don’t know of anyone at the moment but I’ll let you know. Although Lorraine has been single for a while...

[elyanambroise]

Oh, he's absolutely delighted. It's a privilege to watch the most perfect series of all time. Um... no-one you would have heard of, as a couple, but everyone has had mid-to-positive reviews of their dates so far. Ooh, Lorraine! I could help her.

[safiagoyle]

Exactly! -side-eyes- “mid-to-positive”? -dubious, hopes she’s not throwing Lor in the deep end here- So, uh, how many dates have you set up? Who would you set Lor up with, just your initial instinct?

[elyanambroise]

Ye-eeees, well, the Hogwarts dating pool is limited, I have to do the best with what I have. Around 10, I would say. -nods- Erm... Rory, maybe?

[elyanambroise]

[safiagoyle]

Yeah, I hate to break it to you, but I think you’re on death’s door. -jokes, hopes he’s awake enough to get it’s a joke- Ouch, this is why I refuse to go anywhere near the Quidditch pitch. Apart from the fact I’m deathly scared of flying. -decides not to go on the ‘if we were meant to fly, we’d have wings’ spiel-

[elyanambroise]

-clutches hand to chest- And no-one could be bothered to turn up? See if I leave them in my will. -deep, long-suffering sigh- See, this is why you're in Ravenclaw and I am a mere Gryffindor. We are not smart people.

[safiagoyle]

Oof, that’s cold-hearted of you. Your team was in here earlier but Pomfrey threw them out because you “needed to rest”. Betcha feel bad now, huh? -grins- Hm, you say that but I’m the only one who splinched themself in our Apparating class. Ravenclaws aren’t all we’re cracked up to be.

[elyanambroise]

Oh, Merlin, now I've disowned them all for nothing... what a cruel twist of fate. That is a relief, though, I thought they'd all abandoned me in my hour of need. -winces- Ok, yes, on second thoughts I prefer my injuries. At least all my body parts are still connected.

[safiagoyle]

It’s ok, I won’t sell you out to them. -amused by his dramatic sense of humour- Was it a match or just, like, “fun”? -uses inverted commas because how anyone could find flying fun is beyond her- Yeah, apparently I passed out when I saw the blood. -makes disgusted face- So be grateful that most of your injuries are internal! Wait, that sounds worse.

[elyanambroise]

You are my only true friend, and I will repay this kindness. -nods emphatically- Just fun, or it was fun until I nearly died. -snorts- Ok Bella Swan. -eyes widen in slight alarm- Yikes, that doesn't sound good at all. Am I actually on death's door? Should I be planning my funeral? I would love for Taylor Swift to perform.

[safiagoyle]

Yay! -beams; loves making friends- Hey, that's rude, I make somewhat better decisions than Bella. But she is sensible for hating the sight of blood. -thinks Twilight is unironically fantastic- No, I was joking! I just meant, like, you’re bruised but not actually bleeding or something. Oh Merlin that would be amazing! You realise you would miss out on Taylor performing if you were dead though, right?

[elyanambroise]

Well, you could have an 108-year-old vampire boyfriend, for all I know. True... I think that may be the only sensible thing she does in all four books. Huh. -sigh of relief- Thank Merlin. I'm too young to die. Yes, this is true. Maybe I should fake my death. Ok, then during Look What You Made Me Do I could crawl out of my coffin, that would be extremely fabulous.

[elyanambroise]

[safiagoyle]

-has been waiting for her neighbour to wake up to give her someone to talk to, after checking that there was nothing too bloody about his injuries, Merlin knows she didn’t need to faint again- I can highly recommend Madam Pomfrey’s pain-relieving spells for that. -smiles brightly-

-blinks blearily at her, realising she is not here from Quidditch- Uh, thank you? -doesn't really have a choice of pain-relieving spells anyway; wonders why she is in the Hospital Wing if she looks so happy-

[safiagoyle]

-realises she should tone it down, given the poor guy has only just woken up- Sorry, I got excited that you’d woken up, I’m bored and Pomfrey won’t let me leave before I can stand without feeling dizzy, for some ridiculous reason. -rolls eyes jokily- What did you do to yourself?

[kylebennett]

Kyle hadn’t spent much time one-on-one with Elyan before, but he seemed okay. Anyone who was best friends with Gwen must be pretty cool, considering Gwen had good taste (well, she liked him and Al, which was good enough). Kyle and Gwen had become friends after trying out for the Slytherin Quidditch team at the same time and had almost crashed into each other; from then, they’d both been put on the team and started hanging out during practise. With Al already on the team, the three of them had banded together and started hanging out more, with Elyan sometimes joining. The four of them had all been planning to study in the library together one Friday afternoon when Gwen had begged off when feeling sick. The three of them had kept going until Al remembered he had plans with Jessie, his new girlfriend. He waved goodbye to Kyle and Elyan before cheerfully hurrying away to spend some quality time probably making out with Jessie. Kyle couldn’t help but roll his eyes, albeit fondly, because as much as he loved Jess, she could be guilty of monopolising Kyle’s best friend. Kyle was probably just jealous - not that he was interested in Al, not at all - because he’d not been in a successful long-term relationship before.

“Ugh, these people and their relationships, I wonder what that’s like?” He mused aloud to Elyan, putting his quill down and abandoning his Charms essay.

[elyanambroise]

It was weird how little time Elyan’d spent with Kyle one-on-one, considering they’d known each other for three years, but he supposed it made sense when you had a mutual friend. Said mutual friend had decided she felt sick, which was extremely rude of her in his opinion. He studied better around other people, and Gwen was usually the one who kept them all on track. The boys were all too easily lured into conversation, so he couldn’t see this lasting much longer once Al left. He was proven right as Kyle dropped his quill about 0.5 seconds after Al left, and suppressed a smile. “I know, they’re very annoying and I am seethingly jealous,” he admitted. He’d not had a real relationship yet, just some tender fumbling at parties.

[kylebennett]

Kyle was glad that Elyan was also admitting his jealousy and it wasn’t just him by himself. “Thank Merlin it’s not just me. I mean, I love Jessie too, but Al spends half his time with her and the other half talking about how great she is.” He rolled his eyes. “It was bad enough when they were just friends, but now they’re dating it’s a hundred times worse. ‘We held hands today and it was magical’,” he quoted, gently mocking Al. With love. “So, you’re jealous, huh? Are you interested in anyone at the moment?” Kyle asked, curiosity overcoming him.

[elyanambroise]

“Yeah, I feel like one of the last few single people left in the school,” Elyan said. “It’s the honeymoon period, they’re at their worst. Gwen thinks they’re really cute,” he added, wrinkling up his nose. “They were one of those couples everyone but them saw coming a mile off, weren’t they? Really someone should’ve taken pity on them and intervened, but it was too funny.” Funny and tragic at the same time. “Oh, no, I’d just like a relationship, no-one specific in mind. What about you?”

[kylebennett]

“Oh, I know right. You can’t turn a corner in this school without bumping into people making out, and that’s even including the younger years.” Seeing 13 year olds kissing was a really weird experience, but he wasn’t even exaggerating much. It was like there was some potion making everyone desperate for a relationship. “Of course she does,” he replied, shaking his head. “Well, you gotta have some entertainment when your best friend’s too dumb to notice how in love he is with someone, right?” Kyle shrugged. He’d definitely suspected that the two of them were into each other, but felt like it wasn’t really his place to say anything. Even Jessie’s gal pals hadn’t said anything, and he was pretty sure they all shared everything. “Yeah, me too, I’d date practically anyone at this point. Maybe we should date each other,” he said with a laugh. He was obviously joking, as that would just be weird. Gwen would probably complain that she would be the 5th wheel if that happened.

[elyanambroise]

“You really can’t, I don’t know why the professors don’t say anything. There is just a surplus of hormones.” Apparently the professors were ok with that, considering he never saw them stepping in. He knew there was no way to stop it completely but they could at least ban PDA in the corridors between classes; it made it a lot harder to get to class on time. “Did he not notice his feelings either? That’s pretty embarrassing, isn’t it?” How that happened, he had no idea. Surely you’d notice your emotions? “You would? Y'know, I’m pretty good at matchmaking, I have… a success rate.” Really, was it his fault if they didn’t try hard enough to get to like each other? “Can you imagine how mad Gwen would be if we dated?” he asked, with a laugh.

[kylebennett]

“I guess if you try and ban something it’ll probably just get worse,” Kyle pondered with a shrug. “Or they’ll come up with some ridiculous inventive ways around it. You can definitely imagine the Maraud-Hers doing something.” He snorted, picturing the fights Roxy Weasley would have with the professors trying to convince them that they weren’t breaking any rules. “If he did, he didn’t say anything to me,” he allowed. “Either way, the fact he couldn’t tell that Jessie was into him is embarrassing.” Kyle raised his eyebrows in interest - this was the first he’d heard of Elyan’s matchmaking. “Oh, really? A what percentage success rate? Maybe you should give it a go for me; try and find someone that reaches my high standards,” he said with a laugh, amused at the idea of him having high standards after craving a relationship for a while. “Oh, Merlin, she’d probably lose her shit and not talk to us for a month.”

[elyanambroise]

Elyan nodded in agreement. "Yeah, just look at how much alcohol and drugs you can find in the school. I think they've just decided to turn a blind eye to the sixth and seventh years drinking at school because it's impossible to stop it." You'd think they could come up with spells to ban certain products from the grounds, but people would probably come up with counter-spells just as quickly. "Oh, yeah, they'd do some big protest prank. It wouldn't be worth the fight, I guess." They could all be doing a lot worse, anyway. "Huh. I would've assumed Al would want to tell everyone about his crush." He laughed, and admitted, "She was really obvious." Poor girl. At least it'd had a happy ending. "It depends what you count as success," he hedged, not wanting to admit how low it was. No-one had stormed out of the date yet, though, so that had to be a win. "Ok, what are your standards?" he asked, already thinking of candidates. "And what genders?" He kind of came across as a straight dudebro, but to assume made an ass out of you and me. "She fully would, she'd probably try and break us up."
