1980 AU

     It wasn’t an easy decision. At least, not the easiest. There was a lot of arguing over where they would go at first. Alecto had originally tried to convince Amycus to go somewhere in the middle of nowhere, perhaps some small town in Eastern Europe, but his incessant pouting and insistence upon going somewhere warm finally wore her down enough to agree-- and once they got there, she was glad they did. 

     Being on the run wasn’t so bad. In fact, it felt like it was what they were meant to do. They had tried to stay at home for a while, attempting to see the chaos through, but with a new friend of theirs being arrested every day they didn’t want to wait around anymore and take their chances. Azkaban wasn’t an option. So, the twins packed their things, left their home, and eventually found themselves hopping from country to country in South America.

     Their most recent stop was Venezuela. While Alecto originally missed the gloom of England, the liveliness of South America was quickly growing on her. There was so much going on, so much to do, that it was easy enough for them to blend in and make themselves at home wherever they went. It was like a reward for all the hard work they’d done.

     Alecto lifted her head, still with one nostril plugged as she sniffed up yet another line of cocaine. While she hated all things muggle-related, she certainly enjoyed their drugs. She carefully slid the tray over to her brother, already having cut him a few lines. “Let’s go to that party by the beach tonight,” she suggested with a grin, standing up from her chair and standing behind her brother’s. The woman who had invited them seemed to direct the invitation mostly at Amycus, seeing as she’d been flirting with him throughout the entirety of the short conversation they had. Alecto placed her hands on his shoulders, leaning down to kiss his neck. “I want to dance--” another kiss, closer to his ear this time-- “and I want to spend some quality time with that bitch who invited us.”

Alecto & Amycus as Dee & Dennis

     Typically when it came to pureblood parties, Alecto was the sensible one between herself and her twin. It seemed that even though Amycus had a much higher alcohol tolerance than her, he was always the one who ended up getting into trouble in one way or another. He either got too drunk or too angry, or both. This time, though, it seemed that their positions were reversed.

     Most of her peers were engaged or, at the very least, in the process of having an engagement arranged for them. Alecto, it seemed, was one of the last few girls in her class who had yet to be paired off-- and all of the holiday mingling was making her parents realize it. Her mother had mentioned something about a husband to her at nearly every party they’d been to over the holiday, and it was driving her to insanity.

     To deal with her problems, of course, she drank. That was how she always dealt with things, and people were starting to notice. She would deny it until the day she died, of course, because Alecto would never admit she was becoming the cowardly, cruel alcoholic that her mother was. But by judging how drunk she was at the Malfoy Christmas party before dinner was even served, she was well on her way. She was attached to her brother, which was nothing new, but Alecto’s caution was slipping with each drink she downed. “Let’s go,” she whispered in his ear, a drunken grin on her face. She ran her hand down his arm, tilting her head up to kiss his cheek-- but it was dangerously close to his lips. “Bathroom. Closet. Lucius’ room. Anywhere. I want to get out of here, and I want you.”

Alecto & Amycus

“No more parties for you.” - Amy

     “Come on, Amy. Don’t be such a stick in the mud.” She moved to place her hands on his chest and practically fell into him. “You’re just jealous because that one guy was flirting with me…what was his name?” Alecto rested her head on his shoulder and then it felt like the corridor was spinning. “Okay, fine. We can go… but only if I can sleep in your bed.”

“You are the best thing about this place.” -Amy

     “You always tell me that as if I don’t already know it.” Alecto laughed lightly and rolled over on her bed so that she could wrap her arms around him. “But I’m glad you think so,” she said, placing a kiss on the tip of his nose. “You’re the best thing about any place.”

“You look like the maid.” -Am

     “I thought you might enjoy it,” she said, gesturing to the ridiculous ‘sexy maid’ costume she had on. Alecto rolled her eyes, but she still walked towards him like a stripper preparing to dance. “Andie thinks I have little to no sex life, so she told me to get this to spice things up…” She placed her hands on his shoulders and moved in to kiss him, but quickly pulled away with a slight smile on her face. “Wait– are you implying you wanted to fuck the maid?”
