Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy | 17 | Slytherin

“No… no… this experience has bonded us and therefore you’re both my children. I have taken you in and there are no take backs.” He grinned evilly at the boy and threw and arm around him. “Anyways… I’d just let her be. There’s no use in fighting her…” Topher watched as the referee made a call. “THAT WAS A FUCKING FOUL!” He exclaimed, forming a bugle with his hands against his mouth. “Anyways… snogging who? The git with the oily hair?”

“I appreciate that, but I really don’t want her as my sister. And I already have a fa-” Scorpius stopped abruptly to complain about the call the referee made. “Seriously? What the fuck was that? It’s like they don’t know the fucking game!” He turned to the older boy once more. “Yeah, that one. Isn’t he in most of your classes? He’s the most annoying person ever. I have no idea what gambler girl sees in him.”

[tcphcr-deactivated20160304]

Topher chuckled, an amused expression donning his face. It was in that very moment that he deemed Scorpius a worthy of staying in the same sleeping vicinity as him. He snorted. “Now, Malfoy… don’t talk ill about your sister like that.” He cracked a smile, but kept his eyes focused on the match. “She’s probably out gambling for all I know.”

“She’s not my sister, McLaggen. Or sistren as you’d say.” He couldn’t help but chuckle at the word. “That girl’s quite the character. She keeps getting on my nerves for some reason. She’s probably out snogging Grindelwald, for all I care.”

‘ you know what’s even worse than that? being half VEELA. you have no idea how many people look at me like i’m different just because of my blood. i’ve been compared to things that i could never, ever amount to. it’s a part of me, a living part of me to have others think that i’m some kind of goddess when i’m not. i would never intentionally lead you or anyone else on, scorpius! i only ever saw you in a platonic manner and it’s really not my fault that you interpreted my friendship as something more. you can’t hold it against me, you just can’t! you got hurt because i didn’t love you back but it didn’t mean that i didn’t value you in general! i miss you, scorp. i miss you more than anything. i just want my friend back, okay? you just can’t hate me for something that i didn’t mean. i didn’t want you to get hurt, i swear. i just miss you. ‘

[scorpiusx-blog]

“You miss me?” He let out a bitter laugh as he rolled his eyes. “I can’t do anything about that, can I?” Scorpius knew from the beginning what the Veela blood can do, and very well knew Arielle carried it. And yet, he still fell victim to it’s charms. Or did he? He didn’t know. He liked Arielle for many reasons, and not just that she looked attractive to him. That was probably last in the list. “Look, whatever that was we had, it’s done. It’s over. I don’t have time for this anymore.” He couldn’t imagine still having connections to her. Just seeing her made his insides flood with anger. “I’m sorry,” he muttered before he walked away from her.

“You’re very loud,” Callidora murmured to him, yet a smile split her lips. “But you’re right, they are good.” She wasn’t exactly sure if she was supposed to stick to her tent-mates, and even if she was there was no way Calli was going to stick around that long. “GO HARPIES!” she yelled out, enthusiastically cheering for them, almost as loud as Scorpius was.

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Why, of course! I need to show my full on support to my girls. GO HARPIES!” He cheered once more, clapping his hands, as they players swooped past them. “I never thought ol’ Voldy would let us enjoy this. He doesn’t seem like the type to have fun, y’know? I mean without killing people.”

[elyrowles-deactivated20180812]

“I know they are, Malfoy. I’ve just… never seen you this enthusiastic about anything ever.”

[scorpiusx-blog]

“It’s ‘cause you never watch any of our games, Rowle. You should try it some time. Support your homies.” 

[camillabellamy-deactivated20180]

“I’m not looking at you like this because you think they’re good. I’m looking at you because I feel like you broke my eardrums.”

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Don’t kill my vibe, Bellamy. I won’t hesitate to push you over the ledge there. Now, if you’re not going to cheer for the Harpies. Shut it. GO HARPIES!”

[tcphcr-deactivated20160304]

“You’re damned right they’re good, Malfoy.” Topher couldn’t help but grin as he was surprised by his tent-mate’s enthusiasm. “I just never pegged you for a Harpies fan.”

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Anyone who loves Quidditch as much as I do, can easily say that the Harpies are going to win! They’re swifter and smarter than the Bulgarians. I mean come on.” He said it as if it was an obvious thing. “Now, where’s the annoying tentmate named Ophelia?”

[floridasman]

Nora felt as though her heart was in her throat as she heard that harpy-esque screech from the man boy next to her. Fitting.  “BULGARIAAAAAAAAAAAA!” she screamed back, leaning in so she could shout it in his ear. “Not so great when someone does it to you, huh?” She was a little too self satisfied, but what was she to do? Sometimes it was fun being the devil’s advocate.

[scorpiusx-blog]

Scorpius groaned and covered his ears as Nora screamed. “Bloody Merlin, Nora! Why do you have to be such a killjoy?” He punched her arm lightly. “You could have gone with Lucy. It’s not my fault you chose to sit beside me.”

[scorpiusx-blog]

“HARPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!” Scorpius screamed at the top of his lungs as his favored team scored, yet again, another point. He didn’t even mind that his companion was giving him weird looks. “What? Don’t look at me like that. They’re good!” 

[werecoyotc-blog]

‘ shut up, that’s not my fault! are you seriously pointing out my flaws and shaming me for them? that’s worse than anything else, scorpius. ‘ arielle responded, looking very pissed off at him. all she did was not return a certain feeling and then he goes and says something bad about her. sure, he used to be one of her closest friends but now that he wasn’t; it didn’t mean that she could just stop caring for him in general. in fact, she did try to keep talking to him after everything. arielle honestly believed that it would be awkward for a while, but she had never expected him to turn his back on her completely. ‘ i won’t shut my mouth because you want to watch your match. you think i’m going to be nice to you after you turned your back on me and left me without one of my closest friends? yeah, okay. whatever suits you best, obviously. ‘

[scorpiusx-blog]

“You know what’s worse? Getting someone’s hopes up for nothing! You lead them on and make them feel like they’re special and that they actually matter to you. And you reject them with ‘just friends’ and leave them hanging!” Over the screams and cheers of people, he was practically yelling, trying to convey to her all the pain he felt. Scorpius felt his insides burning with anger and frustration as he spoke, his hands balled into fists on his sides. “And then after you’ve hurt them so badly, you expect them to just come back and be like, ‘Oh hey! Me? Hurt? NO. I’m perfectly fine!’ Well, newsflash, Arielle, it doesn’t work that way. People have feelings that actually get hurt! So do me a favor and just shut up and let me watch the damn game!”

[werecoyotc-blog]

‘ i won’t accept lies — sorry to break it to you. get over yourself. ‘ arielle finally looked at him properly, watching him observe the game. she missed how their friendship used to be, before everything happened. he was someone who used to mean a lot to her but now all he did was make her sad and extremely angry. reflecting back on how they used to act towards each other made her feel sour and undeserving of his attitude towards her. ‘ are you being serious? that was sarcasm. i’ll have you know that back then i did care about your feelings but i didn’t return them, okay? you hate me for the stupidest of reasons. stop being so childish and grow up. ‘

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Childish? How do you even think you’re in the position to call anyone childish? You hiss at people for even looking at your food. Sure, that’s freaking mature.” Scorpius almost smiled at the thought. Most of what Arielle did, especially the most stupid ones, amused him beyond anything. He had looked at her so highly and treated her with the utmost kindness, up until that day she decided to destroy him. His heart twinged in pain, remembering everything. Scorpius jumped a little when the crowd, once again, cheered wildly. He let out a sigh. “Would you kindly just shut your mouth and let me watch this freakin’ game?” If there was something everyone knew about Scorpius, it was his passion and love for Quidditch.

[werecoyotc-blog]

‘ don’t call me stupid, dumbass! ‘ arielle fired back, feeling uncomfortable at the way he spoke to her. she expected it, really. he had acted like that towards her since that day. she didn’t like thinking about it because it made her feel bad but it wasn’t her fault — not really. her feelings were different and that was settled. truth be told, arielle hadn’t even noticed that it was him who sat next to her. ‘ are you ever going to dislodge that stick from your ass, malfoy? i’m sure it must be painful. ‘ she muttered, avoiding eye contact.

[scorpiusx-blog]

“I’m just describing you as you are. Accept it. Everyone knows you’re clueless and naive.” He shot her a glare before he rolled his eyes and turned back to the game. Scorpius wasn't always this mean to everyone. Once upon a time, he was merely a reserved little boy, but what had happened between Arielle and him was what brought out the anger in him. He tried to breathe and calm down, and not let this destroy the event he was so excited for. But when she spoke again, he couldn’t help but feel burning hatred. “Oh! And now you care about what I feel?”

[opheliavance-blog]

‘ evil? me, evil? and don’t you dare bring gideon into this. ’ she growled. he was too close for comfort so she pushed him backward softly. was he referring to gideon? he must have been. ‘ oh, this camp is going to be splendid. ’

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Yes, Ophelia. Evil. Meaning profoundly immoral and malevolent, if you’re too feebleminded to understand. You did want to punch me for no acceptable reason. Just like Grindelwald did to Rowle. And why would I not bring him into this? He’s just as awful as you are. Probably even more awful than anyone in this damned school.” Scorpius only smirked. "I’m rather excited, to be honest.”

[werecoyotc-blog]

arielle looked confused as the crowd went wild. she had yet again missed another point being scored due to her lack of concentration. she puffed her cheeks out in annoyance and looked to the person next to her, ‘ what’s even happening? ‘

[scorpiusx-blog]

Being a lover of Quidditch himself, Scorpius was too focused on the game to even care about anything else. He didn’t even notice that the girl that sat right beside him was the least person he wanted to see right now. Or anytime, really. His excitement was sucked out instantly. It was replaced by a baffling mix of hatred, anxiety, and pain which was evident in his face as he spat, “are you really that stupid to not understand a single thing that’s happening?” 

[opheliavance-blog]

‘ do you WANT me to punch you? because, i definitely could, malfoy. would that be enough to prove that i’m not helpless? ’

[scorpiusx-blog]

“What a nice way to break the ice before we share a tent.That’ll only prove just how truly evil and violent you truly are. How lovely. You and your neanderthal boyfriend are more compatible than I thought.”

[opheliavance-blog]

i’m not some HELPLESS little girl, okay? i’m s i c k of people insinuating that.

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Well you look like one, that’s for sure, Vance. People really won’t believe anything unless they have proof. If you’re sick of it, do something about it. Don’t just stand around and actually look helpless like you always do.”

[rosicw]

‘ dream on, i’ll miss you when hell freezes over. what i need from you, scorpius malfoy, is the name of your booze-selling housemate. ‘

[scorpiusx-blog]

“Booze-selling housemate? Why would you ask me? Ask Grindelwald. He’ll know that for sure. That bastard has a terrible habit of drowning himself in liquor when he’s problematic. But then again, who’s to say the booze seller isn’t Scorpius Malfoy?” He shrugged and smiled grimly.
