idiot

♀ | Slytherin | Girls Dorm S/A-1 My name is Cirno Whiterock! I'm a first year attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and I'm going to be the strongest and smartest witch there ever was! Get in my way, and I'll freeze you!

[thegreatwizardvaati-blog]

With Cirno in tow, Vaati began heading back towards where he believed the moving stairs were. Once there, he would ask one of the people inside the moving pictures how to get back to the Hufflepuff common room. Hopefully they weren't inclined to tattle on a couple of students out late at night. By a stroke of luck, Vaati and Cirno eventually reached the moving stairs and stared at the infernal things for a few moments.

"You two are certainly out later than you should be," a wizened voice spoke off to the side.

Vaati's heart nearly leaped out of his chest as he whipped around towards the speaker, thinking they had been caught.

It turned out, however, that said speaker was an old man inside one of the pictures hanging on the wall close by.

"Ah, well, we've both found ourselves in a bit of a predicament," Vaati quickly explained, thinking up a plausible excuse for his breaking curfew. "I got lost and couldn't find my way to the Hufflepuff dorms, and I happened to run across Cirno here and she had forgotten the Slytherin password."

The sentient portrait shook his head. "Nobody's blaming you, dear child. It happens all the time, especially with first-years. I don't know the Slytherin dorms' password, but I can direct you two back to Hufflepuff. Tomorrow, you can explain the situation to your prefects. I'm certain they'll understand."

The talking portrait then informed Vaati and Cirno of which stairs to go up at what time and in which order, as well as where to go afterwards, which Vaati carefully listened. Finally certain that he had the information memorized, he subconsciously took Cirno's hand and guided her through the forever-changing staircases.

After nearly ten minutes of navigating the staircases, Vaati and Cirno were finally on their way to the Hufflepuff dorms. It was only then that Vaati realized he had been holding Cirno's hand. Instantly going red in the face, Vaati let her go. "I...uh...sorry," he managed to stutter.

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno let out another yawn and followed behind Vaati. The normally lively girl seemed exhausted, being rather silent the entire time the two first years walked. Even her reactions became dulled, it took her a few moments to register the painting even speaking. Regardless, she appreciated what the young boy was doing for her, even though he seemed kind of weird.

She let herself be pulled along by Vaati, but really didn't think much of it. She hadn't even payed attention to the painting-- too boring! When the purple-haired boy apologized, though, she didn't understand why.

"...Huh? It's okay, your hand is warm!" she grinned. There he was, his face going red again. Weiiird. Cirno thought for a moment. "When we get to the dorms, do I have to sleep in the boy's dorm?" she asked him, looking a bit worried. "I don't wanna sleep with the boys, but if I go in the girl's dorm, I'll get caught in the morning."

Tidus quickly left his room, grasping a book in his arms. He was in a hurry, and seemed nervous. In fact, every time somebody looked, or even glanced at him, he would speed up to get out of their line of sight.

He would slow down and try to keep calm whenever he passed by a professor, not wanting to raise suspicion. He headed for the library, it seemed like a normal place to read a book, so why would anyone think twice about asking him what he was doing there? He entered the library, heading toward the back, trying to find a secluded area that had the fewest amount of students lurking around. He decided to sit in the history of games section, the chess section to be exact, since very few people come to look up the history of wizards chess.

He set the book he was grasping and hiding from the whole walk down here, on the table, looking around for a few moments to make sure nobody had noticed him. The tittle of the book read, ‘Secrets of The Knights of Walpurgis’.

He opened the book and began to read through it, trying to read as much as he could in the shortest amount of time, but also trying to take in the information given to him from the book, forcing him to stop and analyze the words.

“Interesting…the influence Slytherin had on the world of wizards is amazing..So much forbidden knowledge lies in this book…but it’s not forbidden if I’m not caught…so no harm done…”

He reassured himself, nodding to himself and going deeper into the book. The suspense of somebody showing up at any moment, and the interest he had in the book, took his attention away from everything else for a moment, long enough for someone to find him and confront him…

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno stood on her tip-toes, looking over the unaware Tidus’ shoulder. Her eyes skimmed the page, wondering why the older boy was so interested in that book. The book had way too many words for Cirno to read, and nothing seemed remotely interesting or worth the young girl’s attention. That book was obviously for idiots.

Tired of waiting, Cirno got off her tip-toes and walked next to Tidus, and began pushing him, trying to get his attention. “Hey! Idiot! I need you to reach a book for me!”

“Plus I’m wearing my green bow today, so I want to beat you up without you playing dirty!” Heads were starting to turn as people began to stare at the insolent little girl and Tidus.

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus jumped and quickly closed the book, staring at her. He was startled from her coming out of nowhere, but he soon calmed down once he realized it was her and there was nothing to worry about. He actually felt more annoyed than worried, being interrupted by her.

“A book? Why would you need a book in this section? You sure you weren’t just stalking me?…And enough about your bow already, just because it’s green it doesn’t mean anything.”

He sounded less amused than usual, most likely because he was interrupted at the wrong time

[imthestrongest-blog]

“The book’s in the other section, but it’s too high up! And I saw you running into the library like a moron, so I came to get you to help!” Cirno scoffed, crossing her arms. “Plus, it’s green, so it’s not my special bow. And I won’t even care if you take this one! Or flush it down a toilet!”

“What’s the deal with that dumb book, anyways? You look like you just saw a ghost! …Well, not ghosts like the ones that float around the school grounds, but you know what I mean.” she added on, shrugging, before peering at the cover of the book. She squinted, reading it in her head.

“The Secrets of the Knights of… of…” Cirno began reading out loud, before encountering a difficult word. She brought a hand to her face and thought, before continuing.

“Wal… Wallpergas?” she tried again. “Walpurgis…? Walpurgis!! What’s a Walpurgis, Idiot?” she asked cheerily, excited by her own success. “Is that something you can eat?”

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus looked around to see if anyone had noticed her shouts, looking back at her and standing up, holding his book. He gave her a little glare before speaking to her.

“Alright then, where would this book be? Just tell me so I can get the book for you and you can be on your way.”

He started to walk with her, going wherever she told him to go so he could get the book and get her out of the library.

“Oh, and the green bow looks silly on you. It doesn’t match your hair at all. Not like the blue one, anyway. Besides, it’s the wrong shade of green and it doesn’t even match our house colors.”

“And this book is something a first year shouldn’t know about, If I told you…” He stopped and smiled at her.

  “…I’d have to kill you~…”

Was it a joke? He really would think of killing anyone, especially a little girl in the same house as he is. Tidus liked to joke around, he had a fun personality and it make it easy for him to take things lightly and joke with them, it had to be a joke. …Right?

[imthestrongest-blog]

She took her bow off and looked at it as she walked. “It looks fine!” she argued and pouted. “Slytherin is green, and this is green! So it matches!”

Cirno stopped walking and tilted her head at Tidus as soon as he made that statement about killing her, and put on a face that practically spoke are you kidding me?. “Kill me? Hah! Like you have a chance!” she boasted, locking eyes with the scary senior as her chest puffed out. She wasn’t taking Tidus’ threat seriously at all; like he could get away with murder! In Hogwarts, too! ”You couldn’t kill me if you tried, you’re too stupid!”

She looked around at the shelves, and her face lightened up again.

“Hooray! This way!” Cirno ran over to a shelf, and pointed to a book a few feet above her head. “A Children’s Anthology of Monsters!” she yelled, jumping up and down and pointing. “That one! That one! That one!”

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus smiled at her, walking up to the shelf and grabbing the book, looking at it. It was a strange one, and looked rather silly if you’re going to learn about the monsters of the world. He shrugged and handed her the book anyway, not really caring what she did as long as it didn’t affect what he was doing at the moment.

“Don’t get too tough for your own good. Besides, I wouldn’t want to have to kill you anyway.”

He took a few steps back and looked around, then looked back down at Cirno.

“Well, you have your book, so I guess you can go, unless there’s anything else you need me for?…”

[imthestrongest-blog]

She snatched the book out of Tidus’ hands. “Yay!” she held the book to her chest, and returned Tidus’ smile with a laugh.

“There’s no such thing as being too tough! Or too strong! That’s something you’d wanna remember if you want to be as great as me!” she vaunted enthusiastically. “Plus, you don’t scare me! Your dumb death threats don’t mean anything! You’re too much of a scaredy-cat to try anything against me!”

She dwindled on for a moment, and looked down, and back up at Tidus. “Don’t do anything stupid, okay? I don’t want you to do suspicious things and get expelled.”

[tidus-is-here]

He smiled at her, listening to her until the end. He felt kind of bad, because no matter how much she would call him an idiot, or yell at him, she still cared about him. Her voice sounded sincere at the end, as well as her words. Unfortunately, he didn’t know how much trouble he would get into if this book was found out. Maybe no one really knows what it is, or maybe since the Voldemort incident was such a long time ago, it’s okay to have these kinds of things.

“So, you don’t think I’m doing anything suspicious? If that’s the case…that makes me feel better…but then again you’re just a first year…I’m not sure how much you could really know at this point.”

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno looked around to see if any students were nearby. After she determined the scene was clear of bystanders, she spoke in a hushed but stern voice. “Just ‘cause I’m a first year doesn’t mean I’m dumb! You’re doing something against the rules and you’re gonna get caught!”

Cirno glanced at the book Tidus was holding. “You’re being really secretive about that stupid book, and you should put it back where you found it before you’re discovered and you get shipped back to the muggle world!” Cirno reached up and started grabbing for the book, trying to pry it out of Tidus’ hands.

[tidus-is-here]

He sighed, she was probably right, but he wasn’t going to stop…not even for her. He knew he should not of accepted the book, but it wasn’t like he could refuse, it was practically handed to him. He was proud to be a Slytherin, perhaps too proud for his own good.

“H-Hey! Hands off!”

He was thinking about what she said to him, lost in thought and unable to react quick enough to get her away from touching the book. When she went to take it, a head of a snake popped out from the cover, striking at Cirno like a defense mechanism for those who weren’t meant to have the book. Tidus pushed her back to the ground and dropped the book on the ground, the snake slithering from the cover and at her with full force. Tidus quickly grabbed his wand and dispelled the snake, burning it into ash, trembling at what had just happened.

“A-Are you okay!? C-Cirno…?”

He looked around, trying not to be too loud, but his adrenaline from what just happened was pumping through his body, making him tremble at the thought of what could happen.

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno yelped and hit the floor with a thud. She shakily sat up, grasping her arm. Trembling, she sobbed and peeked at her arm, seeing two bite marks from that stupid snake. Her eyes widened, and she started to hyperventilate at the thought of that snake having venom.

“O-owww…” she whimpered, trying not to be too loud.

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus quickly helped her up, observing the snake bites. He knew the snake had to be venomous, since it was there to protect the book. Even if the snake wasn’t venomous, he didn’t want to take any chances. He sighed at her.

“I told you…now see what you did? Who knows what is going to happen…that wasn’t any normal snake. I think you should take yourself to the nurses, tell them you were messing with a spell for snakes or something, or a snake got you in the courtyard, okay?”

He grabbed his book and looked around, wiping a tear from her cheek. She gave her a worried smile, trying to get her to calm down. He wasn’t really good at this sort of stuff, but he had to at least try.

“You feel alright? You can make it down to the nurses by yourself, right? If I bring you, it will seem suspicious, especially since it’s a snake bite…I could get in trouble, and we wouldn’t want that, right, Cirno?”

He wiped another tear from her cheek, trying to comfort her and cover his own butt at the same time.

[imthestrongest-blog]

“I-I think I can go to the hospital wing on my own…” she sniffled and glanced at the bite, grimacing. She rolled down her sleeve, not even wanting to look at her injury anymore. She was still lightly shaking, the thought of death still running through her mind. Cirno looked at Tidus, and that dumb book again, and shuddered.

She kicked the snake’s ashes. “Am I gonna get in trouble?”

[tidus-is-here]

He shrugged, patting her head. He really didn’t know what to say…he felt sort of bad for asking her to say it was something she did, even though it was his fault for having the book. He frowned at her and let out a quick smile.

“Just tell them that you were messing with a book I had, and you didn’t know it was enchanted, and…then you got bit by the snake. I’ll deal with the rest, okay?”

He just planned to grab any old book he had so he could tinker with it to make it seem like it was enchanted and such, even though he has no idea how to do that sort of thing, he could at least try. That was the plan at this point, use whatever book he could get his hands on as a cover up for the book he was hiding.

[imthestrongest-blog]

"Okay, I guess." she smiled and wiped away her tears. She should probably start making her way to the nurses, just in case the bite'll get worse with time.

Cirno looked at Tidus' face, and kicked him in the leg. "You're an idiot." she said. She would've crossed her arms, if one of them wasn't bitten already. Cirno then started walking away and towards the exit of the library, on her way to the hospital wing.

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno sat, her back towards the Slytherin dormitory. It was late at night, perhaps 3AM. The first year had only meant to sneak out for a glass of water, but upon returning, she made a vital...

Vaati gritted his teeth at the mention of those ACCURSED STAIRS as he shook his head, driving away his blush. "Agh, I'm fine. It's just a little warm in here. I'm Vaati, by the way."

Vaati's eyes shifted slightly as he pondered his next words. "Speaking of, you look really tired right now. And since alerting anyone of our current predicament is bound to get us in trouble, I can't just take you to the Headmistress, especially this late at night..."

An idea occurred to him. A splendid idea. A stupid idea. "Perhaps...if I can figure out how to get back to the Hufflepuff dormitories, I can take you with me, and you can sleep there. Everyone else'll be asleep by now, and I can tell the prefects tomorrow that you forgot your password and your classmates didn't hear you banging on the door. That way, no one's the wiser. What do you say?"

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno thought about it for a moment, then shrugged. "It's better than waiting here until morning." she yawned, standing to her feet and brushing the dirt off her clothes. She looked around a bit, trying to figure out which way would be best to go, before she realized she has no clue where the Hufflepuff dorms even are.

The small girl turned back to Vaati with curious eyes. "Do you know the general direction to the dorms? I've never been there before." How people found their way through this maze of a school, she didn't know.

“What’s the deal with that dumb book, anyways? You look like you just saw a ghost! …Well, not ghosts like the ones that float around the school grounds, but you know what I mean.” she added on, shrugging, before peering at the cover of the book. She squinted, reading it in her head.

“The Secrets of the Knights of… of…” Cirno began reading out loud, before encountering a difficult word. She brought a hand to her face and thought, before continuing.

“Wal… Wallpergas?” she tried again. “Walpurgis…? Walpurgis!! What’s a Walpurgis, Idiot?” she asked cheerily, excited by her own success. “Is that something you can eat?”

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus looked around to see if anyone had noticed her shouts, looking back at her and standing up, holding his book. He gave her a little glare before speaking to her.

“Alright then, where would this book be? Just tell me so I can get the book for you and you can be on your way.”

He started to walk with her, going wherever she told him to go so he could get the book and get her out of the library.

“Oh, and the green bow looks silly on you. It doesn’t match your hair at all. Not like the blue one, anyway. Besides, it’s the wrong shade of green and it doesn’t even match our house colors.”

“And this book is something a first year shouldn’t know about, If I told you…” He stopped and smiled at her.

  “…I’d have to kill you~…”

Was it a joke? He really would think of killing anyone, especially a little girl in the same house as he is. Tidus liked to joke around, he had a fun personality and it make it easy for him to take things lightly and joke with them, it had to be a joke. …Right?

[imthestrongest-blog]

She took her bow off and looked at it as she walked. “It looks fine!” she argued and pouted. “Slytherin is green, and this is green! So it matches!”

Cirno stopped walking and tilted her head at Tidus as soon as he made that statement about killing her, and put on a face that practically spoke are you kidding me?. “Kill me? Hah! Like you have a chance!” she boasted, locking eyes with the scary senior as her chest puffed out. She wasn’t taking Tidus’ threat seriously at all; like he could get away with murder! In Hogwarts, too! ”You couldn’t kill me if you tried, you’re too stupid!”

She looked around at the shelves, and her face lightened up again.

“Hooray! This way!” Cirno ran over to a shelf, and pointed to a book a few feet above her head. “A Children’s Anthology of Monsters!” she yelled, jumping up and down and pointing. “That one! That one! That one!”

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus smiled at her, walking up to the shelf and grabbing the book, looking at it. It was a strange one, and looked rather silly if you’re going to learn about the monsters of the world. He shrugged and handed her the book anyway, not really caring what she did as long as it didn’t affect what he was doing at the moment.

“Don’t get too tough for your own good. Besides, I wouldn’t want to have to kill you anyway.”

He took a few steps back and looked around, then looked back down at Cirno.

“Well, you have your book, so I guess you can go, unless there’s anything else you need me for?…”

[imthestrongest-blog]

She snatched the book out of Tidus’ hands. “Yay!” she held the book to her chest, and returned Tidus’ smile with a laugh.

“There’s no such thing as being too tough! Or too strong! That’s something you’d wanna remember if you want to be as great as me!” she vaunted enthusiastically. “Plus, you don’t scare me! Your dumb death threats don’t mean anything! You’re too much of a scaredy-cat to try anything against me!”

She dwindled on for a moment, and looked down, and back up at Tidus. “Don’t do anything stupid, okay? I don’t want you to do suspicious things and get expelled.”

[tidus-is-here]

He smiled at her, listening to her until the end. He felt kind of bad, because no matter how much she would call him an idiot, or yell at him, she still cared about him. Her voice sounded sincere at the end, as well as her words. Unfortunately, he didn’t know how much trouble he would get into if this book was found out. Maybe no one really knows what it is, or maybe since the Voldemort incident was such a long time ago, it’s okay to have these kinds of things.

“So, you don’t think I’m doing anything suspicious? If that’s the case…that makes me feel better…but then again you’re just a first year…I’m not sure how much you could really know at this point.”

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno looked around to see if any students were nearby. After she determined the scene was clear of bystanders, she spoke in a hushed but stern voice. “Just ‘cause I’m a first year doesn’t mean I’m dumb! You’re doing something against the rules and you’re gonna get caught!”

Cirno glanced at the book Tidus was holding. “You’re being really secretive about that stupid book, and you should put it back where you found it before you’re discovered and you get shipped back to the muggle world!” Cirno reached up and started grabbing for the book, trying to pry it out of Tidus’ hands.

[tidus-is-here]

He sighed, she was probably right, but he wasn’t going to stop…not even for her. He knew he should not of accepted the book, but it wasn’t like he could refuse, it was practically handed to him. He was proud to be a Slytherin, perhaps too proud for his own good.

“H-Hey! Hands off!”

He was thinking about what she said to him, lost in thought and unable to react quick enough to get her away from touching the book. When she went to take it, a head of a snake popped out from the cover, striking at Cirno like a defense mechanism for those who weren’t meant to have the book. Tidus pushed her back to the ground and dropped the book on the ground, the snake slithering from the cover and at her with full force. Tidus quickly grabbed his wand and dispelled the snake, burning it into ash, trembling at what had just happened.

“A-Are you okay!? C-Cirno…?”

He looked around, trying not to be too loud, but his adrenaline from what just happened was pumping through his body, making him tremble at the thought of what could happen.

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno yelped and hit the floor with a thud. She shakily sat up, grasping her arm. Trembling, she sobbed and peeked at her arm, seeing two bite marks from that stupid snake. Her eyes widened, and she started to hyperventilate at the thought of that snake having venom.

"O-owww..." she whimpered, trying not to be too loud.

Cirno sat, her back towards the Slytherin dormitory. It was late at night, perhaps 3AM. The first year had only meant to sneak out for a glass of water, but upon returning, she made a vital realization. Cirno could not remember the password.

She...

Vaati shook his head. "No, I remember mine. However, I left my dorm because I didn't feel like dealing with whoever my roommates might be, so I decided to wander about the castle. Ironically enough, I soon discovered I had gotten myself lost. Typical."

Vaati took this moment to inspect the Slytherin first-year. He had heard a lot of unflattering things about the Slytherins, not least of which that the legendary Dark Lord Voldemort and almost all of his followers hailed from Slytherin. Even the ones who hadn't been outright Death Eaters were snobbish and rude towards anyone who wasn't 'pure-blood Slytherin'. However, this girl did not strike Vaati as such a person, even though she wore the tell-tale green and black robe of the Slytherin House.

In fact, she looked kind of cute.

Hoping that strange warmth on his face wasn't what he thought it was, Vaati said, "What is your name?"

[imthestrongest-blog]

"Ohhhh. The staircases and stuff move around, though, so that's probably why. This big school is super confusing." she sighed. "I thought it was a good idea to go get a glass of water, but I can't remember the stupid password, and I've been sitting out here since!"

"You'd think that Slytherin students would be sneaking out all night, but I haven't seen a single one!" Cirno groaned as she slumped. She looked at Vaati. "My name's Cirno, and I'm a first year." Her eyes narrowed. "...You're looking kinda red in the face. Are you sick or something?" she asked, worried. "I don't think the hospital wing is open this late." She hoped he wasn't ill, she didn't want to risk getting caught while finding the hospital wing, either.

Tidus quickly left his room, grasping a book in his arms. He was in a hurry, and seemed nervous. In fact, every time somebody looked, or even glanced at him, he would speed up to get out of their line of sight.

He would slow down and try to keep calm whenever he passed by a professor, not wanting to raise suspicion. He headed for the library, it seemed like a normal place to read a book, so why would anyone think twice about asking him what he was doing there? He entered the library, heading toward the back, trying to find a secluded area that had the fewest amount of students lurking around. He decided to sit in the history of games section, the chess section to be exact, since very few people come to look up the history of wizards chess.

He set the book he was grasping and hiding from the whole walk down here, on the table, looking around for a few moments to make sure nobody had noticed him. The tittle of the book read, ‘Secrets of The Knights of Walpurgis’.

He opened the book and began to read through it, trying to read as much as he could in the shortest amount of time, but also trying to take in the information given to him from the book, forcing him to stop and analyze the words.

“Interesting…the influence Slytherin had on the world of wizards is amazing..So much forbidden knowledge lies in this book…but it’s not forbidden if I’m not caught…so no harm done…”

He reassured himself, nodding to himself and going deeper into the book. The suspense of somebody showing up at any moment, and the interest he had in the book, took his attention away from everything else for a moment, long enough for someone to find him and confront him…

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno stood on her tip-toes, looking over the unaware Tidus’ shoulder. Her eyes skimmed the page, wondering why the older boy was so interested in that book. The book had way too many words for Cirno to read, and nothing seemed remotely interesting or worth the young girl’s attention. That book was obviously for idiots.

Tired of waiting, Cirno got off her tip-toes and walked next to Tidus, and began pushing him, trying to get his attention. “Hey! Idiot! I need you to reach a book for me!”

“Plus I’m wearing my green bow today, so I want to beat you up without you playing dirty!” Heads were starting to turn as people began to stare at the insolent little girl and Tidus.

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus jumped and quickly closed the book, staring at her. He was startled from her coming out of nowhere, but he soon calmed down once he realized it was her and there was nothing to worry about. He actually felt more annoyed than worried, being interrupted by her.

“A book? Why would you need a book in this section? You sure you weren’t just stalking me?…And enough about your bow already, just because it’s green it doesn’t mean anything.”

He sounded less amused than usual, most likely because he was interrupted at the wrong time

[imthestrongest-blog]

“The book’s in the other section, but it’s too high up! And I saw you running into the library like a moron, so I came to get you to help!” Cirno scoffed, crossing her arms. “Plus, it’s green, so it’s not my special bow. And I won’t even care if you take this one! Or flush it down a toilet!”

Cirno sat, her back towards the Slytherin dormitory. It was late at night, perhaps 3AM. The first year had only meant to sneak out for a glass of water, but upon returning, she made a vital realization. Cirno could not remember the password.

She didn’t dare yell for a fellow Slytherin to let her in, a professor or prefect would surely get her in trouble for it. The tiny girl simply sat outside the entrance, knees to her chest, hoping that a Slytherin student would enter or exit the dorm, giving her a chance to slip inside. For now, she would just wait. And wait. And wait. Maybe even until the sun rose.

Cirno yawned and looked around to see if anyone was approaching, then groaned and leaned back when she saw not a single soul. She sighed and looked down sorrowfully, even sniffling a bit and wiping a tear. She immediately sat up straight and gazed alertly as she heard approaching footsteps.

[thegreatwizardvaati-blog]

Vaati was familiar enough with the rules to know he was not supposed to be out this late, but he really didn’t care right now. Because he did not feel like dealing with his disappointments of room mates, Vaati decided to spend his time wandering around the castle; familiarizing himself with it’s layout. However, after a while it became apparent that Vaati ended up getting himself lost.

‘Fucking wonderful.’

Eventually, Vaati found himself near the Slytherin common rooms. He discovered, to his immense surprise, that he was not alone in these silent halls of the castle. A young girl sat outside the common rooms, silently crying to herself. As Vaati observed her, a thought raced through his mind. ‘Has she been kicked out of her room?’

Feeling pity for this poor girl, Vaati went against his nature and approached the weeping figure. As he got closer, the girl had looked up and suddenly caught sight of him. Not knowing what else to do, Vaati smiled awkwardly and said, “Ah…hello?”

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno sniffled again and rubbed her eyes, sitting up straighter at the arrival of the fellow first year. She stared at the boy; he looked like a stereotypical Slytherin, with such chalky pale skin and red eyes. The yellow-and-black Hufflepuff clothing he donned told her otherwise, however. Darn it. She let out a yawn, and waved to Vaati.

"What's a Hufflepuff doing out here so late?" she asked him, confused. "Aren't your dorms a long way away?" She blinked a few times. "Oh! Did you forget your password, too?" She seemed excited to see someone in the same boat as her, and it seemed to ease her disappointment.

Cirno stopped walking and tilted her head at Tidus as soon as he made that statement about killing her, and put on a face that practically spoke are you kidding me?. "Kill me? Hah! Like you have a chance!" she boasted, locking eyes with the scary senior as her chest puffed out. She wasn't taking Tidus' threat seriously at all; like he could get away with murder! In Hogwarts, too! "You couldn't kill me if you tried, you're too stupid!"

She looked around at the shelves, and her face lightened up again.

"Hooray! This way!" Cirno ran over to a shelf, and pointed to a book a few feet above her head. "A Children's Anthology of Monsters!" she yelled, jumping up and down and pointing. "That one! That one! That one!"

Tidus quickly left his room, grasping a book in his arms. He was in a hurry, and seemed nervous. In fact, every time somebody looked, or even glanced at him, he would speed up to get out of their line of sight.

He would slow down and try to keep calm whenever he passed by a professor, not wanting to raise suspicion. He headed for the library, it seemed like a normal place to read a book, so why would anyone think twice about asking him what he was doing there? He entered the library, heading toward the back, trying to find a secluded area that had the fewest amount of students lurking around. He decided to sit in the history of games section, the chess section to be exact, since very few people come to look up the history of wizards chess.

He set the book he was grasping and hiding from the whole walk down here, on the table, looking around for a few moments to make sure nobody had noticed him. The tittle of the book read, ‘Secrets of The Knights of Walpurgis’.

He opened the book and began to read through it, trying to read as much as he could in the shortest amount of time, but also trying to take in the information given to him from the book, forcing him to stop and analyze the words.

“Interesting…the influence Slytherin had on the world of wizards is amazing..So much forbidden knowledge lies in this book…but it’s not forbidden if I’m not caught…so no harm done…”

He reassured himself, nodding to himself and going deeper into the book. The suspense of somebody showing up at any moment, and the interest he had in the book, took his attention away from everything else for a moment, long enough for someone to find him and confront him…

Cirno stood on her tip-toes, looking over the unaware Tidus’ shoulder. Her eyes skimmed the page, wondering why the older boy was so interested in that book. The book had way too many words for Cirno to read, and nothing seemed remotely interesting or worth the young girl’s attention. That book was obviously for idiots.

Tired of waiting, Cirno got off her tip-toes and walked next to Tidus, and began pushing him, trying to get his attention. “Hey! Idiot! I need you to reach a book for me!”

“Plus I’m wearing my green bow today, so I want to beat you up without you playing dirty!” Heads were starting to turn as people began to stare at the insolent little girl and Tidus.

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus jumped and quickly closed the book, staring at her. He was startled from her coming out of nowhere, but he soon calmed down once he realized it was her and there was nothing to worry about. He actually felt more annoyed than worried, being interrupted by her.

“A book? Why would you need a book in this section? You sure you weren’t just stalking me?…And enough about your bow already, just because it’s green it doesn’t mean anything.”

He sounded less amused than usual, most likely because he was interrupted at the wrong time

[imthestrongest-blog]

"The book's in the other section, but it's too high up! And I saw you running into the library like a moron, so I came to get you to help!" Cirno scoffed, crossing her arms. "Plus, it's green, so it's not my special bow. And I won't even care if you take this one! Or flush it down a toilet!"

"What's the deal with that dumb book, anyways? You look like you just saw a ghost! ...Well, not ghosts like the ones that float around the school grounds, but you know what I mean." she added on, shrugging, before peering at the cover of the book. She squinted, reading it in her head.

"The Secrets of the Knights of... of..." Cirno began reading out loud, before encountering a difficult word. She brought a hand to her face and thought, before continuing.

"Wal... Wallpergas?" she tried again. "Walpurgis...? Walpurgis!! What's a Walpurgis, Idiot?" she asked cheerily, excited by her own success. "Is that something you can eat?"

Don’t open your mouth in front of others, only speak when spoken to, and don’t use vulgar language.

This became Aria’s mantra over the past four years, and even though she had promised her mother she would uphold it, it was becoming fucking difficult.

In the past, there had been moments where she wished she could have called out students and teachers for their utter bullshit, laughed at people who had made fools of themselves, and it wouldn’t hurt to be able to talk with people and make a couple of friends. After all, she was in her fifth year and without even a single acquaintance. Except for Qator, of course, but cats didn’t count.

Today was one of those days. However she did not wish to simply speak, but to yell. Her patience was nearly nonexistent, and if things continued to build up she would most certainly share more than a few profanities and four years worth of insults. What caused her such frustration, such anger, was not a person, but a cat—Qator, to be exact. He had bolted out of the common room the moment another student had opened the door, leaving Aria with no choice but to give chase.

Aria hadn’t the slightest clue as to what had gotten into him; Qator had a penchant for being rather lazy, refusing to leave whatever cushion or chair he had claimed as his own, and yet now he was racing through the halls, much faster than any overweight feline she had ever seen. For a moment, Aria wondered if he, too, had grown tired of playing a role he no longer enjoyed, or perhaps never enjoyed at all.

The distance between owner and pet was growing smaller, and the cat was nearly within arms reach—before he quickly turned, and was now running down an unknown and empty corridor, that is. No longer able to restrain herself, Aria finally let her true colours show.

“God. Fucking. DAMMIT!! QATOR I SWEAR TO FUCKIN’ GOD IF I DON’T SEE THAT UGLY FACE O’ YOURS WITHIN THE MINUTE, YER GONNA WISH YOU NEVER GOT YER FAT ASS OFF THAT DAMN CHAIR!! HELL, YER PROLLY GONNA WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN!! Tch, stupid fuckin’ lil shit—”

She let her words fade, into silence. And what an uncomfortable silence it was. As she turned the corner, what she thought to be a large and hopefully now tired cat was not there. In fact he was nowhere to be found. Instead, what stood before Aria was a person. Shit. Shitshitshit—

“I…I, umm…I-I…!”

The shy act was something she loathed. This was not her, and it would never be. Yet, she found that it had its benefits, sometimes—people had a tendency to feel sympathy towards fragile little girls. Although the stranger had no doubt overheard her earlier, as she let a several crocodile tears roll down her cheek she couldn’t help but think that this was a rather convincing act, perhaps her best this week!

“I-I…I’m s-so sorry…! I, um…”

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno stood in the empty corridor, staring wide-eyed at the crying girl. The first year student looked terrified from the older student's outburst, but then she grinned. Admiration shone in her eyes as she ran up to Aria, and tugged on her sleeve.

"That was awesome!" she gushed. "Can I help find your cat?" she asked, jumping up and down in excitement. "Pretty please?"

Cirno looked at Aria's face, just now noting the tears, and gasped. "Don't worry, it's okay! We'll find your cat soon; don't cry!" she tried to reassure the girl, even though she was crying for a completely different reason. "C'mon, be strong! He couldn't have gone too far!"

Cirno sat, her back towards the Slytherin dormitory. It was late at night, perhaps 3AM. The first year had only meant to sneak out for a glass of water, but upon returning, she made a vital realization. Cirno could not remember the password.

She didn’t dare yell for a fellow Slytherin to let her in, a professor or prefect would surely get her in trouble for it. The tiny girl simply sat outside the entrance, knees to her chest, hoping that a Slytherin student would enter or exit the dorm, giving her a chance to slip inside. For now, she would just wait. And wait. And wait. Maybe even until the sun rose.

Cirno yawned and looked around to see if anyone was approaching, then groaned and leaned back when she saw not a single soul. She sighed and looked down sorrowfully, even sniffling a bit and wiping a tear. She immediately sat up straight and gazed alertly as she heard approaching footsteps.

[tidus-is-here]

Tidus approached, his reasons for being out so late are unknown. He shook his head at the pitiful Cirno.

“Tsk tsk…1st year and you’re already breaking curfew. Do you have any idea what time it is?”

He stood in front of her, tall and intimidating, disappointment in his eyes as he looked down at her.

“Ooooh yeah. You’re in big trouble little girl. Big, BIG trouble.”

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno’s heart lurched as she saw a Slytherin, and it sank when she realized who it was. She looked back down, ashamed. She decided she may as well try not to offend him, in hopes that will convince him to let her off the hook.

“I just went and got a glass of water, that’s it, I swear!” she murmured, crossing her arms. “Can you let me inside?” Cirno sucked up her pride. “…Please?”

She looked up to Tidus sadly with puppy-dog eyes, trying to get even the littlest ounce of sympathy out of the otherwise rude boy.

[tidus-is-here]

He sighed at her, mostly in confusion. He watched her for a while, seeing her sad and upset, defeated by her own mistake. He smiled at her and spoke the password to open the wall to the their dorm.

“Why would you leave the dorm completely to get some water? Unless you planned on going to the mess hall, which would be dumb after curfew. You could of just used the sinks in your dorm, you know?”

[imthestrongest-blog]

“Ew! I’m not drinking dirty sink water!” Cirno scowled at him, and stood up to her feet, brushing the dirt off her skirt.

Walking into the dormitory, Cirno’s ego made a return. Her head was held high again, with her hands on her hips.

“My name is Cirno!” she introduced herself, looking Tidus in the eye and trying to be intimidating. “Your name is Idiot, right?”  

[tidus-is-here]

“No, my name is not idiot! Jeez, can’t you be appreciative? I just let you inside after you decided to be an idiot and lock yourself out!”

Tidus yawned, scratching his head. Whatever he was doing, he was out all night long doing it, and he was exhausted. He walked to the split between the boy and girl’s dorm, looking down at her.

“You’re lucky I was out and came back. You would of been stuck out here all night long if it weren’t for me.” 

[imthestrongest-blog]

Cirno stuck her hands in her pocket. "...Thanks." she muttered before blushing lightly. 

Cirno spun around and quickly walked down the hall to the girl's dorm, not even bothering to say goodbye.
