“True,” was all she mumbled, zipping her shoe back up and wiggling her foot a little. Her pain tolerance was surprisingly high for a fragile woman with poor health. However, she was tough enough to keep any complaints of pain to herself because she didn’t ever wish to be an inconvenience or nuisance. She preferred to get along with her life with little to no trouble. “I’m small. My tiptoes do a lot for me, but I am normally stable enough in heels. And they’re empowering.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Yeah, I forgot that smaller people have a lower center of mass.” He joked, diverting attention away from the fact he’d made her show him her foot for injury. Especially since he’d been wrong about it having any impact health-wise. “Empowering... true.” Scorpius didn’t wish to argue that point, mostly because it wasn’t his place to do so. “Why were you putting away boxes anyway? Or is it top secret Unspeakable shenanigans.”

GOT7 - 딱 좋아 (Just Right)

[victoireweassley-blog]

A moment’s pause. One. Two. Three. Victoire let out her breath.

“I think they’re gone.” She whispered, keeping her line of sight focused ahead of her with stability and precision. One hand held her wand, the other used as a signal to beckon the people advancing behind her. When she was absolutely certain the opposition had removed themselves from the area, Victoire cautiously placed her own feet forwards whilst simultaneously checking left and right for any sigh of an ambush. “Just a little longer.” Victoire called behind her with a hushed volume; an attempt to bring confidence to her partner.

Scorpius tried to keep a straight, serious face through this game. He’d partnered up with Victoire because, well, he couldn’t say no to a team with a Weasley on it. Out of all the teams competing today, Scorpius was sure they were the strongest contender for winning. However, they’d only been playing for around ten minutes and already they’d been chased twice, escaping briskly this time, and already this was seeming too humorous for his taste. The only thing keeping him from laughing was that she genuinely seemed to be into the game - he didn’t want to laugh at her for enjoying it this much. “Hopefully not too long because it’s getting hot.” Scorpius replied in the same hushed tone, not wishing for their location to be revealed. “No movement, though, I think we can leave.” He suggested, wishing to rid of their closed hiding space.

[evelynrosier-blog]

“Hey. If you’re going to be a negative source of support then you can leave. Nothing is going to be broken, but you can help if you like.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Truth be told, I have no idea what you’re actually doing. You just look like you’re going to hurt yourself, so I think I’ll keep my distance. Unless you’re subtly requesting help, of course, because then I’m all the more happy to lend a hand if required.”

[jasperlaus-blog-blog]

“There are plenty of loopholes in the whole entire thing, not just that section of the bet. But alright, I agree. Each of us put forwards two galleons, winner takes four.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Winner takes four? That’s ambitious.” Scorpius said as he weighed out his chances of winning then nodded, placing forwards two galleons onto the table. “Fine, fine. Place yours too and we’ll get this going. I will not be responsible for the despair you will feel upon losing.”

[itsluciiabitch]

Lilac kept the sarcastic reply in her head and settled with a polite apology. “I must apologise. Being impolite was not my intention.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Surely you’re aware butting into a conversation you were not firstly involved in or later invited to is an impolite action?” Scorpius knew that Lilac came from a family of importance, he was sure he’d seen her at plenty of gatherings between his family and others that seemed to still happen on the odd occasion, but then again he was never good with matching faces. “No matter, the conversation has been abruptly put to an end. Do you have reason for being here?”

[properweasley-blog]

Lucy shot Scorpius a quizzical look, as though to ask why he was still there, but continued with her explanation anyway. “Well, I couldn’t reach the top shelf, and I needed to get to the files,” she said, climbing back up the ladder. 

[scorpiusmalfxy]

Scorpius continued to loiter despite knowing he was not welcome currently. “But you could just use a levitation spell to get it then?” Scorpius said aloud as he thought about the solution to the easy problem, wondering why it was Lucy would prefer to ascend a ladder to reach files when she was very capable of remembering the use of magic. He assumed she had different reasoning.

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

“My sister is a healer…” Dominique murmured, as if that would change anything, “But it should be fine.” She followed his request anyway, slipping off her booted heel gently prodding where the box had landed, wincing a little as she let the pain affect her. It hurt more than she would admit to him. A small bruise was forming, but there was no swelling, only faint redness. With a hum of satisfaction, she slipped her foot back into her shoe without complaint, “I would be able to reach better, meaning no tiptoes.” She shrugged.

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Your sister isn’t here.” Scorpius replied to the murmur, keeping his arms crossed and observing the woman. He preferred not to see the sight of feet but said nothing of it, simply looking for bruises or swelling which he assumed would be basic signs of a problem. Nothing. “But heels are basically like being on your tip toes, except less stable because you cannot fall back on the balls of your feet you just fall over.”

[evelynrosier-blog]

“I see.” Evelyn nodded and decided not to get involved in the political conversation, it was best to keep her head down and let Scorpius take her to the floor she needed to be on. She would walk with him to the 8th then head up to the 7th and 6th by herself after releasing herself from his grasp. “I wonder if all the people in the Netherlands are tall? It wouldn’t be their Irish genes, I hear many people in Ireland are shorter.” She knew little about national height averages, only that they tended to be shorter in some areas and she had no idea why. “Let’s go then.” Evelyn smiled as she offered the door for the younger man.

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“I’ve never been so I wouldn’t know. Ireland’s nice though, but there are tall people there. You watch too many programs.” Scorpius laughed at the fact Evelyn was pulling these stereotypical images out but dismissed them quickly, thinking it nothing more than a joke. “You can find your way home now.” Scorpius suggested as they reached the sixth floor together, having stuck to Evelyn constantly as they ascended until they reached the transportation area. He wasn’t going to be responsible for any mistakes.

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

Dominique just waved her hand in passing, “They have more important things to worry than my commenting on their control of excitement. And there are more than one Weasley in England. I may be the only red of my siblings, but not of my family.” At his words she nodded, “I see.” Her eyes sharpened into a glare as someone tried to snatch the papers from her and she turned away, gesturing for him to join her on route upstairs, “I wish the Ministry would just give them Ackerman, we have not the time for this chaos.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“There are plenty more Malfoys in England too but I keep my mouth shut when thinking about such things.” Scorpius mimicked her hand passing in a jest then focused his attention on leaving, following shortly behind. “Agreed, but this isn’t something we should really discuss. It makes it seem like we’re favoring sides.”

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

Eyes watching the chaos for a moment longer, Dominique considered wandering back to her workplace to work in silence, although she had been considering going home for the evening. Apparently that wouldn’t be possible without being attacked by savages. At the sound of a familiar voice, the fair haired witch turned her lips into a brief smile of friendship and a light chuckle at his humour, “And to think we had become civil creatures of the earth,” Dominique mused, before her shoulders jerked at his question, “Because nothing is ever normal in the Ministry.” Running her fingers through her hair, Dominique glanced at Scorpius, “I can handle myself, although - I’m not sure that all of those lot can. The werewolves might piddle themselves,” She gestured to the groups of people fighting or scanning the courtrooms like hawks or sniffer dogs. Due to the havoc, she felt no reason to be exclusively formal, “You here to subdue the worst of it or just to avoid Veronica Blake’s wrath?”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“I wouldn’t know, they chuck us out practically as soon as we walk through our office doors.” Scorpius referenced his workplace. His boss was constantly sending everyone out to do something, even if that something was to pick her up a few files from the Atrium. And when they were free from out of office duties, they were studying, training or writing reports. Scorpius let out a light chuckle and shook his head gently. “I wouldn’t say that. Werewolves have sharp ears, and that head of hair makes you easy to remember.” Just as he spoke, someone backed into him and knocked him forwards a few steps. He turned to see it was his partner then shook it off. “Blake is sat in her office, actually.”

[evelynrosier-blog]

Evelyn almost laughed at the fact he’d assumed she was filing, but it was a good enough cover for her to take. “I see. Well, perhaps I will make my way to the Atrium. But, might I ask, what is going on here?” Evelyn asked, scanning the room for the fighting she was seeing and pretending not to be involved in. “This is my first time seeing the Aos Sí, though - aren’t they amazing? I mean, I’ve always marveled at the vampires and werewolves but the Aos Sí are noticeably different and very beautiful.” Evelyn added, trying to keep the conversation light and away from the real reason she was here. 

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Veronica Blake doesn’t want to get her hands dirty, that’s what.” Scorpius offered as an explanation, bitter about the fact Blake’s clean-up squad could deal with this problem quickly. Better yet, the Minister could have not kidnapped Ackerman. Yeah, what a thought. “Having such tall people around means I don’t feel as tall as I am, more average. But yes, good idea. I will escort you.”

[evelynrosier-blog]

Though Evelyn was aware her allies would be around the same level as her, there was unease at the thought of being without them. She had kept a low profile, trying to maintain out of sight and as inconspicuous as possible. But the Ministry knew, they were expecting this. So Evelyn was expecting them. As she fingered through the files in the cabinet, she felt a brush of someone at her back and span on her heels to face them. “Excuse you.”

[evelynrosier-blog]

[scorpiusmalfxy]

Scorpius was trying his best to keep himself out of crossfire, backing away into the edges of the courtroom. When he eventually backed himself into someone else, Scorpius turned to face the woman he was sure he’d seen before. He looked to the file storage then focused on her face, not caring much for whatever she was doing. “I apologize. You should probably keep to the sides or out of this room, Miss. I don’t really think now is the time for filing.”

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

Dominique wandered into the courtrooms, her eyebrows raised and she made a humming noise out of curiousity as people rushed around. With her work clutched to her chest, the red head opened the door fully open as someone almost slammed into it mid-fight. “Am I missing something important here?” She questioned, blinking. “Why are you people acting like mad dogs?”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

Scorpius, along with five other Hit Wizards, had been assigned to patrol the Ministry this evening for the case of an infiltration within the Ministry. By principle Scorpius preferred to stay away from conflict between the opposing sides, but he’d taken a few days off sick and needed to make up for it on apparently the worst of occasions. Once he saw Dominique walk through, he nodded as a sign of greeting and watched as people struggled. “I believe it’s called Natural Selection.” Scorpius joked though now was no time for such humor. “Why is it that I never bump into you in a normal situation? Anyway, you might want to steer clear. Things are going to get hectic.”

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

At his words, her eyes widened and she shook her head, “It hurts a little.” She white lied, although surprised she hadn’t broken a bone in her foot, especially with how thin she was. Watching him slip the box in with much more ease, Dominique’s lip stuck out a little in a childish pout, accepting his words of her dropping her business attitude. “I just need higher heels,” she countered as she leant against the wall and rubbed a little at her foot.

[scorpiusmalfxy]

Scorpius leaned back onto the shelves, his arms crossing over his chest before loosening his left arm to make gestures. This gesture was towards her foot. “I’d take a look if I were you. If it’s not bruised then I guess it’s fine, but I’m no Healer.” This was always Scorpius’ form of diagnosis for his own injuries - if it didn’t look bad, it couldn’t be that bad. Then again, he understood pain was different for everyone else. “Higher heels would make you less stable.”

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Clearly,” Lucy replied in a clipped voice, then muttered the incantation. She turned to Scorpius. “Don’t you have somewhere to be?”

“Probably.” Scorpius replied as though he cared little, though he knew his schedule well and was aware there was no place to be. “I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to be climbing a ladder, yet here you are and I’m not questioning your position.”

[hopefullyhoping-mini]

Biting her lip in attempt to keep her professional composure, Dominique’s body shook a little as she tried not to laugh and whine at the same time. Her head bobbed in a nod at his words, before she let out a smile, while still trying to retain her composure as she crouched to lift the box off her foot. Her face twisted for a moment, before she quickly mumbled, “Easy route, please.” Her features broke into a grin and laugh, before she covered her mouth to hide her break from professionalism.

[scorpiusmalfxy]

“Storing boxes doesn’t require constant businesslike attitude. If you’re hurt you can say so.” Scorpius waited for her to lift the box then took it from her, finding the box to be heavier than he’d assumed it had been. With more ease than Dominique, he slotted the box into the position on the shelf and pushed it all the way to the wall. “We might have to request a stepping ladder if you’re going to be stacking boxes.” Scorpius added, poking fun of the recently passed issue surrounding her height.
