“that sounds horrible.”

     “really it’s not that bad. besides, you cannot truly judge food if you have not eaten it. varying opinions, yes, but what sounds horrible to you is very delicious to me.”

     “what? oh.. this is just a vegan dynamite roll.” melinoë explained to the other as she picked up her chopsticks. “---vegan sushi, to clarify.”

     looking down at the tarantula on her arm, melinoë couldn’t help but to smile softly. not many people would willingly have a pet spider, nor would many people willingly allow said spider to crawl on them. but proven many times, the slytherin was far from normal. “it is alright,” she began quietly, as if not to startle the arachnid. holding up her left hand, the dark-haired prefect waited for her familiar to switch over if she chose to. and when the spider had, it caused her smile to grow. “good girl...” although, melinoë was slightly too caught up in her pet to notice the dormitory door open.

“… wait, what? — i’m sure that can’t be true, you’re just being silly. we’re friends, at least that’s what i think we are. mel is lovely, really. i mean, she’s so smart, i swear i wouldn’t be surprised if she bet half of the year above us in every test. and she’s so interesting, it’s like she always has a topic that makes you think and always talks about it so… eloquently. she’s so good at words. and she’s also really kind, i don’t know if many people know that, but she always has been to me. oh! and she’s beautiful… i mean she’s just really pretty you know? i doubt someone like that would ever fancy me. so you’ve probably got it wrong.”

     “you are just as beautiful and intelligent as you think i am.” melinoë began, a smirk ghosting over her lips as her eyes gazed over the hufflepuff. “you are a magnanimous soul; a youthful goddess worshiped in divine art and flowers, one with more sway than she believes to have. i may be eloquent in my words, but you? you are expressive with imagination--- and that is a gift so little seem to possess.” of course, the dark-haired serpent did not confirm if she had fancied the brunette, how could she? juliette possibly wouldn’t believe her, and that would make things all the more awkward between the two. it was one thing to allow her tongue and mind so freely intertwine, spilling more compliments than people could ever imagine her capable of, but to indulge in raw emotions? emotions that should, in truth, not exist in the first place. but, that was neither here or there; no, instead melinoë’s ghost of a smirk formed into a simple smile as her brown hues met juliette’s blue ones. “you should really have more confidence in yourself, juliette...”

mimiwhitten:

mimi let out a voice that was stuck somewhere between an amused snort and an annoyed sigh, her hands flying to her hips as she stopped in front of the younger slytherin. she knew that the other girl hadn’t looked up from her book and thus didn’t know that she was talking to a fellow prefect, but it didn’t stop mimi from rolling her eyes dramatically as she reached out to close melinoë’s book, careful to leave her finger between the pages so that at least the nott wouldn’t lose the page, even if she WAS going to lose her pride. “yes, and it’s the same reason you’re out past curfew.” mimi’s voice was slightly dragging as she lazily attempted to put melinoë in her place, a dark brow arched upwards. “is there a reason you’re just sitting here and not actually doing your rounds?”

     upon mimi closing the book, melinoë gazed upwards at other prefect indifferently. the long haired witch’s reasoning was sound and true, there wasn’t any point of arguing ( not that she would have either way, melinoë didn’t care for wasting time going back-and-forth so childishly. ), but the nott heiress was secretly thankful that mimi had the decency to at least keep the page. “my apologies, then.” melinoë spoke, and while her words lacked her usual sarcasm, they kept their natural calm . it was a genuine mistake---not knowing it was mimi---but that didn’t mean melinoë nott was going to be bashful any time soon. however at mimi’s question, the younger slytherin faintly shrugged. “it has been quiet for almost two hours now until you came along. i made my usual rounds before and unfortunately i did not have to turn anyone in.” but just as melinoë finished, she suddenly quirked a brow. “actually the more i think of it, the more i feel a vague unease. how often is it silent in the corridors of hogwarts? not that often.” it didn’t seem right, but surely it was only melinoë itching to send another student to detention.

mcrgceryy:

Margaery hadn’t exactly planned on running into a prefect on her way back to the common room, but as soon as she heard Melinoë’s voice, the hint of a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth as she walked closer to the other Slytherin. “Only that the castle is so much better when it’s dark, quiet and empty.” The blonde said matter-of-factly as she gave a small shrug of her shoulders.

     hearing margaery’s voice made melinoë perk up some, as the blonde serpent was one of the very few people she could say she actually liked. so closing her book softly, making sure to mark her spot, melinoë smiled faintly at her friend, any and all traces of annoyance gone. “i can certainly agree on that. i find i enjoy it better when it is still---well, except when i am on prefect duties. it makes the evening much more... entertaining when there is somebody to bust.” it was no secret melinoë was one of the few prefects who took the title seriously, save for the few forgiving moments for friends ( or her younger brother, if she by chance caught him sneaking out of slytherin dungeons ) and wasn’t above giving out detentions. but as she shifted from her position, melinoë motioned for margaery to sit if she wanted. “rounds tonight have been so bloody dull, as if everyone was dosed with a sleeping potion at dinner.”

Shoot. Lucy froze in the middle of the hallway. She knew whose voice it was and there was no way she could escape without getting caught. The petite girl straightened her back and rounded the corner slowly. “Oh hello Melinoe…” She said carefully. “I, er, was just getting some exercise. I couldn’t sleep.” 

     brown hues looking up from the page in front of them, melinoë’s quick suspicion of the voice was confirmed. and perhaps if melinoë was a nicer person, she would have said hello back. but she didn’t---instead, the dark-haired witch sighed heavily. “you could have simply stayed in your common room if you could not sleep, lucinda.” moving from her reading position ( yet still sitting, because did she really want to completely get up just for this? no, she didn’t. ), the slytherin adjusted her glasses and bookmarked her book. “perhaps you can get some exercise tomorrow night in detention. i hear it can be quite a workout to do menial tasks without magic.” there wasn’t any way melinoë would actually know what detentions were like on a personal experience, as she never received one---she only gave them out.

WIS with Juliette?

     “with someone who appreciates, respects and genuinely cares for her and does not take her for granted.”

KHC Margaery, Juliette, Archibald

     “kiss juliette, hug archibald and i suppose cuddle margaery. although margaery and i would likely not cuddle, more so simply be next to each other on the same bed or sofa.”

WYR - be a master of every musical instrument or be fluent in every language?

     “while i only am proficient with two musical instruments, i am currently fluent in six languages, so the obvious choice would be to learn every language i already have not.”

     the slytherin prefect was sitting, perched as if she were waiting for prey of the night. more often than not was it this way; the dark-haired girl graciously took rounds when fellow prefects that had... other plans. however while reading in the quiet corridor, she was interrupted by approaching footsteps. “is there a reason you are out past curfew?” melinoë called out without looking up, her voice already sounding more annoyed than anything.
