“Oh, a half-blood with a Lestrange? Definitely scandalous. Especially since Bella’s in the picture. To her, a half-blood is just as bad as a Mudblood. A half-blood that plays with what belongs to her? Only makes it so much worse,” Rosaline dawdled, though a small grin appeared on her face. The drama was much too interesting to be ignored. “I’ve told Bella though. She called me to sit with her at the Feast, and she kind of reeled the information out of me. Sorry Melissa Bell,” she stated, with a shrug, “Better start counting your days and writing your will.”
She smiled at her friend’s imitation of Ed – no matter how inaccurate, and possibly offensive, it was, Scarlet was able to bring a laugh out of Rosaline. “Yeah, he gets a little defensive at times, doesn’t he? Although he has been a bit of a hothead lately…” she trailed off.
“Juliet Conrad, yes. Her sister isn’t too bad, but that Juliet, I swear to Merlin. Please let her be your next target,” she rolled her eyes. “What’s happening with Amelia though?”
“I suppose so.” Scarlet mused. Half-bloods were a weird grey area in their friendship group, the Carrow’s were half, Emma was half as was Lucinda and so was Severus, in fact a few of their friends were. Rosaline was right though, it was thing to be friends with them in the eyes of the Lestrange’s, it was quite another to bed them. “True. It’s terrible. I wonder if she knows what she’s gotten herself into? Poor lamb.” Scarlet added faking sympathy obviously in an effort to be bitchy. “You’re hilarious Ro. I love it. Rabastan broke the news to her about the girl, nice to know you’ve aided with a name. Now the fun can really begin!”
“Oh well I thought that was him all the time, nice to know he’s got other emotions other than anger.” Scarlet did genuinely care about Rosaline and she did want to get along with her ‘man friend’. “I’ll come with you to his next gig if you want? I’ve heard he is quite the player. Might be nice to see him channel his emotions into something more productive than optioning out the faults in my clothes.”
“I’ve never spoken to the Conrad girls. I may or may not add Juliet to my list. Comical that Rosaline doesn’t like Juliet, how does Romeo feel about all this?” Scarlet joked. “I don’t know yet. We could take her stuff and stick them to the ceiling in different places and make a scavenger hunt for her to find? Or we can less discreetly custard pie her whenever we see her and then run away so she doesn’t see it’s us?”
