shining through the rain, here comes the sun

victoire weasley. 24. healer. former ravenclaw.

[lupinsted]

Well now that would be great. 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

You and I must have different ideas of what great is.

What happened?

[malfoy-cordelia-blog]

Well, perhaps you should take your food to your room? That way there’s no fear of unacceptable social situations. [hesitates] You’re Victoire Weasley, right?

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

I might end up doing that. (she shrugged, and pushed her hair back) Yes, I am. But I must confess that I am not entirely sure as to who you are. Most of the students I know are either my cousins or spend extended time in the Hospital Wing.

[evans-elliott-blog]

Nothing better to do mostly? I have done my NEWTs already, I’m pretty much good to go. And why would you be going to bed so early?

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Sleeping late after NEWTs is always acceptable.

We had a second year come into the hospital wing having a near anxiety attack about exams coming up. I stayed up with him until he finally fell asleep around five this morning.

[tobiaskrum]

Don’t most things? 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

You know, I don't think they do.

[lupinsted]

Ridiculous.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Did one of the first years blow up a toilet again? 

[tobiaskrum]

Godric, no. I’m insulted to the very bone, Weasley. Does this mean I bore you? 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Who said that this had anything to do with you?

[seraphine-rupert]

It is if you have no social life.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

If I had the kind of social life here that I had as a student, I'd probably be getting some weird looks. You have to grow up sometime.

[evans-elliott-blog]

Well, I just woke up, so really we’d just be covering all bases.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Really? Sounds perfect.

If you don't mind me asking, why is it you slept this late?

[malfoy-cordelia-blog]

Social acceptance is usually relating to being in groups or communal activities, so unless you’re planning to sleep within a group, you should be fine.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

For all we know I might just pass out at dinner.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Is it socially acceptable to fall asleep this early...?

[julesaugustine]

I don’t think I’ve left the library all week. My diet has consisted of solely coffee and I think I’m losing my mind. Any sort of distraction would be welcome right now. 

[julesaugustine]

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

I was just about to go down to the kitchens for some late dinner. Care to join? You can't live off coffee forever, unfortunately.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Can it just be summer already?

[lupinsted]

Well this time it will be willingly. I was only forced to be your friend. I never really liked you until about a year ago. [ laughs, nodding ] Yes, something more than those things. [ shakes his head ] Nope, it’s a bit of a surprise. To get it, you’re going to have to meet me for dinner tonight. 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Ah, well, I must confess that I thought you had cooties for the better part of my childhood. Or that you were some half-pig half-human thing. (she laughed, shaking her head) Dinner tonight? I think I'll be able to squeeze out of the Hospital Wing.

[rosiethered]

Of course I do. My mum’s a lot to live up to. And I’m supposed to be just like her.

It’s probably both. [shrugs] There are so many expectations placed on us.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Maybe similar to her, but not just like her. You're Rose Weasley, not Hermione.

I can't imagine how much more so it must be for you.

Flying Lessons || Tobias & Victoire

[tobiaskrum]

All he could do at this point was laugh. Victoire was absolutely precious. Precious? He didn’t even know that word was in his vocabulary. It was much too innocent for his liking, but in that moment, there was no better word suited to describe the blonde. 

"You skipped the first step, Weasley," Tobias teased, well aware that it wasn’t really necessary. As she kicked off up into the air, he watched her closely, taking note of the way she leaned forward too far, causing her to wobble slightly. "Scoot back a bit!" he shouted up to her, smiling all the while, "You’ll be better balanced, I assure you." 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Grinning as she heard his laugh, Victoire flew a bit higher. She had to squint and push a few stray blonde locks out of her face to be able to see him properly, and hearing his first remark, shook her head. "You and I both know that it's useless!" She called out.

Remaining floating in the same spot, she listened to his corrections and followed them, struggling a bit to keep her balance as she scooted. Resting in her new spot, she flew a bit, before looking back down at him. "Better?"

[lupinsted]

Well I don’t plan on going anywhere. I’ll be here watching you age with grace. [ smiling as she spoke, he looked down shyly as she brought up the note he had sent her, shaking his head lightly. ] Don’t mention it. It was… You know, it’s your birthday. I can’t not send something. Which, reminds me… I do have something for you. If you’d like it, of course. 

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

Haven't you been doing that my whole life? I have the pictures to prove it, you know. (she teased, smiling up at him) Something besides the lovely note and song this morning? (she grinned) Pray tell, Edward.

[rosiethered]

I didn’t realize that other people in our family felt that way, too.

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

You do too? 

I can't tell if it stems from being oldest children, or being the daughters of one of the most known families in the wizarding world. Or even a little of both.
