Decked out in her Gryffindor scarf with red and gold ribbons in her hair and paint on her cheeks Dom’s coltish legs trembled with every step up into the stands, her fingernails biting pink marks into the flesh of her palm as the crowd trickled into their seats. Everyone had been asking if she was sure she’d be alright and she had assured them with the usual sunny smile that she’d be absolutely fine and they had trusted her because Dom hardly made a habit of lying. As the players took to their brooms she blinked rapidly, her eyes burning and as she tried to take a breath she let out a choked off little gasp. The pitch spinning in front of her eyes. She shot out of her seat and dashed to throw herself as quickly as she could back down the steps. Her chest so tight she could hardly suck in a breath and eyes filled with tears. Her thoughts consumed with one thought. Getting away.

Her dark hues scoured the sea of students, seeking out Dominique’s light blonde hair. It wasn’t until her cousin rose up that Lily finally spotted her, familiar green eyes frenzied with sheer panic. Sprinting down the flights of stairs, she didn’t waver until her feet finally met the grass. “Dom, remember, deep breaths in for four seconds, then out for four seconds. You’re going to be okay. I’m here, you’re safe.” she soothed, just like the last time this had happened. The redhead reached out her palm, fingers gripping around Dominique’s, an attempt to reground her cousin to her surroundings. Lily’s free hand began to rummage through her purse, pulling out a Calming Drought she had brought. Just in case.

“no, i did not attend the ‘party to end all parties’ last night. i prefer my fun spent outside of the s n a k e p i t – and no, i’m not saying that to be mean. my best friends are in that house - - - - i just don’t trust anyone there, quidditch rager or otherwise, not to use ‘drunken ro escapades’ as a means for blackmail. i’m a prefect for merlin’s sake, you people will never see me in any state less than classy.”

"I wouldn’t call it the ‘party to end all parties.’ it was abysmal at best, really. ” lily interrupted. “our family is far better at throwing celebrations, honestly. remember teddy’s eighteenth? now that was a night to fucking remember -- you were so wasted i was almost pissing myself from laughter. very classy.” she teased, letting out a light chuckle. “ -- what were you up to instead anyways, ro? tell me you were doing something at least mildly interesting and not homework.”

Dawn was fast approaching, the dull morning sky tinted light orange, almost that of the color of a peach. Lily, who was finally beginning to sober, was sitting with her feet dipped into the crisp water of the lake, watching the sun’s ascent. At the sound of light footsteps, she turned to see Scorpius and gestured him to sit. “I had to ditch the party eventually. It was too many infuriating people in one confined location. Sore winner syndrome really is a fucking epidemic in this school -- how was your night?”

“My beautiful Annabel Lee, there you are! I’ve been looking everywhere for you -- where have you been hiding all night? Did you manage to drag Jamie here as well? I haven’t seen a grey head of hair anywhere in the vicinity but I assumed he was with you.”

“You know, Oliver Wood once told me that in his first Quidditch game, he only lasted two minutes before a bludger hammered him right off his broom. He was out for a whole week and look at him now -- he’s probably the most famous player this school has ever produced. They’re going to knock you down, you’ve just got to get back up. I’m proud of you, little lion.”

“One peep out of you that sounds even remotely close to a gloat about Slytherin winning, Albus, and I’ll -- disown the entire family, run off and get hitched with an Italian lover named Filippo, and move to the hinterlands. You’ll never get to see me again!” she exclaimed. “ -- And my new best friend Clarabel will get the cloak! Not you!”

#idk what this is #but she's so drunk #and so kidding #but so so drunk #and i think she'll be angry about the outcome of the match for years to come lmao #[ albus. ]#[ convo. ]#alcohol tw

“You were talking to me?”

“I wasn’t listening, you’ll have to go ahead and repeat that.”

Lily sighed, briefly glancing at her cousin before fixing her eyes on Fletcher. “ -- I know you want to be there when Lucy wakes up, but she’ll be out for a while. You should take the opportunity to get some food in your belly. Or bathe. You’re starting to look a little greasy.”

book in lap, eyebrows furrowed as she quickly scribbled in a leather bound notebook, zina seemed to be in another planet. every few seconds she would look across the great hall, lips pursed, as if she was searching for something. finally, she seemed to come down to earth, blue eyes shining as she turned to the person nearest to her. “a word that rhymes with explosion that doesn’t sound extremely idiotic??”

liliumtigrinum

“hmm, that’s a tough one -- there’s implosion...” lily paused as she racked her brain for more. “corrosion. erosion. a lot more options if you don’t mind a near rhyme or using a different form of the word. any chance you’ll let me take a peek at it when you’re done? just this once?”

“look, i like transfiguration, i do. not as much as charms, sure. but three feet on the principle of artificianimate quasi-dominance is just excessive. it just is!”

liliumtigrinum

“mm, consider yourself lucky. he’s an even tougher grader when you’re family, his way of seeming fair.” with a playful roll of her eyes, she began to flip through the pages of her transfiguration textbook. “we still on for our shopping spree on sunday by the way? or should we reschedule, seeing as we’re both drowning in an endless sea of busy work? i suppose our fashion spree can always wait -- although, i will tell you, i’m going to need to do some serious retail therapy if gryffindor loses the game saturday.”

“she says I can leave soon,” Lucy murmured quietly, fidgeting under the blanket. Staying in one spot had always irked her - the young Weasley had to be always moving, she could never sit still for more than five minutes at a time. The explosion had caught her and pulled her under like a tidal wave. She tried not to think of it. “I’ve been here three days; I’m ready to explode. Just like the castle did.” her lips twisted into a smile at the irony of her own joke.

lily strode into the sterile white hospital wing, brown eyes lighting up when she spotted her cousin. in her small arms, she bore a mahogany goat plushie, a heart embroidered in front that said goat well soon. she placed it down at her bedside and perched herself on the edge of the mattress. “that’s the best news i’ve heard all week, lu.” lily exclaimed, a smile creeping up on her face. “james and wendy and i came to see you the second we heard, but you weren’t awake yet. pomfrey nearly burst a vein trying to get us to leave -- you look miles better now though, honestly, you healed up quickly. must be because you’re so strong.” reaching out a hand to firmly clutch her cousin’s, she continued, "i’ll convince slughorn to let us out of the castle for a little bit as soon as you’re out, okay? he’ll say yes, i’m sure, he adores me. we can have a night on town, do something exciting.”

WIS WITH OTHERS?

The ship we’re all rooting for of course. The Yaxley twins ( also known as ‘knockoff Jaime and Cersei Lannister’ ) and making the choice to undergo sterilization. The thought of either of them ever raising kids really sickens my stomach.
