Sirius quirked a brow at the girl, looking amused, glancing at the tip of her wand as it was directed at him. “As do you. Most people don’t go whipping their wands around at the slightest noise. We’re a bit jumpy today, aren’t we, Carrow?”

Alecto had been ready to hex a younger year for attempting to tail her, until she realised who it truly was. “Black.” She uttered with disgust at the blood traitor that stood in front of her. “I enjoy teaching the younger years a lesson.” She purred before changing her grip over her wand, twisting it through her fingers as she stepped closer towards Sirius. “Is there something you want, blood traitor?”

Emma almost didn’t recognize Alecto, which is why she looked up a little late when the girl started talking to her. It made her lose her balance, and she ended up on one of the large seats at a table that she was pretty sure didn’t belong to Slytherin. It took her yet another while to comprehend the question she’d just been asked, and figure out an answer. Why was her mind such a mess? 

“I-I’m here for breakfast.” She mumbled her reply, though not fully sure anymore that she had arrived on the correct time. 

Alecto had been following Emma as soon as she had entered the Great Hall for the sole reason that it should have been classes for the Seventh Year, although Alecto herself had a free period. Raising an eyebrow at the girl who ended up sitting at the Gryffindor table instead of the Slytherin, Alecto shook her head at Emma, before smirking at her reply. “Honey, its nearly lunch time and you’re here for breakfast. Vanity get your ass over to the Hospital Wing.”

“Same counts for you, Carrow.” Diedrick retorted after realizing who he’d bumped into. He was pretty sure Alecto didn’t suffer from this mysterious flu, partially because she looked the same as normal and because she’d hex just about anyone with the flu who came within three feet of her. Proof for this came quickly when he noticed her tightly gripping her wand. A grin quickly grew on his face at the sight of this. “Don’t worry, I’m not sick. I’ve made very sure of that.” He added in, referring to the fact that he hadn’t left his dorm room much this week.

Alecto had begun to make her way through the crowds, until Diedrick had bumped into her. Smirking lightly at the realisation it was Diedrick and not some annoying younger year brought some sort of relief to Alecto, although she would have hexed him if he had been suffering from the illness epidemic. “You better not be Neumann. Or there’d be some sort of consequence.” She replied, letting her grip relax upon her wand.

Severus was in denial. He’d had the symptoms for a day now. It was manageable so far. Just a little tremor in his body and the occasional sniffling. We wasn’t about to go to the hospital wing. No one else seemed to have noticed. If they had, they weren’t saying anything. He was glad though. The last thing he wanted was to go to the hospital wing. He could fight this on his own, he needed no one. 

He was heading to class but suddenly, he felt dizzy. He slowly tried to take a step forward, staggering. He took another. And another. Severus tried to take a fourth step but collided with another student, stumbling backward.

Alecto had been heading towards her Potions class where she was starting to become late, due to the thousands of students trying to walk through the hallway. Letting a small snarl appear on her lips, she began to grip her fingers upon her wand as she glanced around at the younger years so that they knew that she meant business - and if they wanted to live through their next few days hex free - to move out of the way. A pleased smirk appeared upon her lips as they began to part for her, before she headed on her way. Well that was until Severus began to collide into her. “Do you mind, Snape?”

It felt like she was drunk. When Emma had woken up that morning, fully convinced to go out on the Pitch and play her game no matter what Dumbledore had said about the flu, she could’ve sworn the world was upside down. She’d only had a light cough yesterday, but now her brain was clouded, her head hurt and it took at least two hours to get dressed and shuffle down towards the Great Hall, only to find it empty. Wasn’t it morning? She knew that some students enjoyed sleeping in, but there was no food on the tables whatsoever.

“I could’ve sworn it was time for breakfast..” She mumbled to herself.

As Alecto brandished the hallways, in search of some sort of solace and away from the rest of the sick population of Hogwarts, she happened to pass by the Great Hall who seemed to have Emma shuffling towards one of the Slytherin tables. Rather intrigued by this particular notion, Alecto decided to enter the Great Hall, raising an eyebrow at the girl who seemed to be in search of food. Noticing the way that Emma locked, Alecto shook her head at the girl’s antics. “You look like shit, Vanity. What are you doing out here?”

ofdiedricks:

Diedrick hated being sick. He hated other people being sick too. He hated illness in general. Germs were something he could worry about endlessly, and this disease spreading through Hogwarts was the last thing he needed. He had started feeling a little raw in his throat this morning, and as a result was taking extra precautions. Though his dorm room had been a safe haven so far, he had promptly forgotten about getting a book he needed for his homework from the library. The boy made his way through the hallways extra carefully, but somebody else wasn’t, and ran almost straight into him. 

“Please don’t be sick, please don’t be sick,” He softly mumbled to himself like he was praying, before finally facing the other student.

Alecto had been on her way, wand out and ready to hex any of the younger years who seemed to be infected with some sort of epidemic that was infecting the whole school. She was one of the very lucky few that were not affected and she was planning to keep it that way. As she moved through the hallway, she began at a brisk pace so that she could avoid all of the congested people that seemed to be clogging it up. However as she began to turn a corner so she could get away from the crowds, it seemed that someone began to run into her. A small snarl escaped her lips as she observed the figure standing in front of her. Alecto gripped her wand tighter as she commented, “You better have not got me infected, Neumann.”

“So Amycus came to hate the world that pulled her away from him, for he never felt more loved or whole than with his sister pressed against his side.”

Thomas chuckled at Alecto’s reply. Her motives always seemed more authentic than their housemates. “Well, then I can’t really blame you for it, huh?” He took a quick glance around the very empty corridor. “Where are you headed all alone? Off to cause trouble?” 

Avery was one of the few people she could stand at the school. She definitely preferred Mulciber over him, but he wasn’t awful company. Raising an eyebrow at Thomas, Alecto shrugged as she replied, “And why would you be asking? To join in?”

Severus had his wand out in an instant, tensed for a fight. He wasn’t sure what she was talking about, he was only trying to get to the common room. He watched her, already conjuring up a hex in his mind. “I don’t want any trouble…”

Glancing back to see that it was Severus, Alecto's smirk began to grow upon her features, as she observed his reaction. She enjoyed the way that he was tensing, ready to fight her although she knew she had the upper hand against him. "I'm sure you don't." Was Alecto's purring reply as she began to twist her wand between her fingers.

Mei had been heading to the North Tower, and the person in front of her seemed to be heading in the same direction. Mei was a few paces behind her, but her footsteps (which were quite normal, honestly) had seemed to set set the girl ahead on edge. Her eyes widened at the sight at the wand the girl (who was apparently-oh, Merlin-Alecto Carrow) had whipped out, and she reached for hers, before realizing that this wasn’t some sort of duel. “And you’ve learned the art of paranoia too well, Alecto. I was just heading to the North Tower, it’s this way.”

[itsalectoxcarrow-blog]

Alecto enjoyed to play mind games with the younger years, and this had been no exception. She had hoped that it would have been one of the first years, or even better - a mudblood that she would have been able to torment, but instead it was some French filth. Raising an eyebrow at the girl who presumed that she was allowed to call her by her first name, Alecto sneered lightly as she replied, “Good for you Renaudin. Make sure you keep out of my way if you know what’s good for you.”

Thomas was walking through the hallway lost in thought when he noticed Alecto ahead of him. An amused smirk appeared on his face when she pointed her wand at him. “And perhaps you, my dear Alecto, need to learn to relax.” He pushed her wand down with a finger. “Don’t you know it’s rude to point this at others?”

Alecto hadn't hesitated in taking her wand out, hoping that it had almost been a younger year so she would have been able to hex them mercilessly. Glancing at Thomas and his amused smirk, she began to roll her eyes as she replied, "Maybe. But have you considered I enjoy doing it Avery?"

[itsalectoxcarrow-blog]

As Alecto begun to hear the faint padding footsteps of someone who seemed to be following her, a small smirk began to play upon her lips as she turned around, whipping out her wand as she asked, “Perhaps you need to learn the art of subtlety.”

“I don’t particularly like it when people touch my stuff.” Diedrick stared at the other student he just caught with a hand on his favourite quill.

Raising an eyebrow at the younger Beauxbatons boy, a small smirk began to appear upon Alecto’s features as she replied, “And why is that?”

The evening had been surprisingly still, and Lily had taken advantage of it. Her rounds still weren’t for quite a while, and the castle, or at least what she’d seen of it, was oddly quiet. Upon realising this, she took to finishing off her Charms work, which she was a tad bit behind on. In doing so, the table on which she was working became littered with ink and quills and battered pieces of parchment. Engrossed in her work, she almost didn’t notice the approaching figure. Almost. Without glancing up, her voice rang out, “Can I help you?”

Alecto had been seeking to find a place where she would be able to have solace and be alone from the various irritating people that did exist in Hogwarts. However, as she began to near one of the more deserted places in Hogwarts - low and behold, the mudblood was there. Letting a small grimace appear upon her lips, Alecto rolled her eyes as she replied caustically, “I’m fine, thanks mudblood.”

“Note to self, next time I think about breaking apart two dueling first years, don’t.”

[itsalectoxcarrow-blog]

A small smirk appearing upon her lips, Alecto rolled her eyes as she replied, “Well that rather smart, wasn’t it Lucius?”

mostdelicatedaffodil:

Narcissa couldn’t put her foot on it, but she just had a bad feeling about Alecto today. Alecto was volatile on her best days and Narcissa was wary of that. Still, this interaction between them wasn’t out of the ordinary. No different from any other conversation they’d ever had. Still, she couldn’t help but feel unsettled. She looked at Alecto, tilting her head ever so slightly. She smiled sardonically, “It is a pity, isn’t it? Nothing that I can do about it, though. Besides, – It’s probably a blessing in disguise. I’m sure Lucius would hate to compete against me in classes.”

Alecto would openly admit that small talk wasn’t completely her forte, but she was willing to play along just for now at least so that she would be able to see how this ended up happening. Letting her small smile meld to become much more of a smirk, Alecto’s pleased expression began to appear as she let a small laugh escape her lips at Narcissa’s next comment. “Truly so. After all, once our year leaves, you’ll be left alone without your sisters, isn’t that so?” She couldn’t help but rub in the fact that the little Black was a year younger than the rest of them - especially since she was playing along with Narcissa’s whims.
