Das famílias puristas, Dolores era muito próxima de vários membros. No entanto, havia uma em particular que lhe fazia ranger os dentes por ser intragável - não que a própria Umbridge fosse cem por cento querida, porque não chegava a ser nem cinco. Infelizmente, estar na mesma comunal que esta lhe causava arrepios de raiva, e mais ainda em eventos como aqueles onde era impossível não achá-la. Os mesmos amigos, os mesmos colegas, o mesmo ciclo... Nem se Dolores quisesse muito, poderia evitá-la. E talvez existisse um motivo plausível do destino para que ambas se encontrassem tanto assim. Vê-la no ângulo lhe deixava imediatamente desgostosa e estava muito evidente em seu semblante. Portanto, mesmo que sem querer precisou se aproximar, afinal a outra estava perto da grande mesa com comidas. De queixo erguido, a morena estalou os saltos fortemente no chão como se quisesse - e queria mesmo! - mostrar dominância no ambiente. Em seguida, pegou um copo, encheu-o de ponche e 'sem querer' tropicou nos próprios pés quando, porventura, o líquido fora jogado diretamente no corpo de Andromeda Black, que estava perto de si. A boca se entreabriu em surpresa falsa ao mesmo tempo que sua mão se erguia para tocar a bochecha. "Oh!, céus! Sou muito desastrada, não é?" O cenho franzir juntamente do bico que fora moldado nos lábios era uma tática horrível de Dolores que, de certa forma, tentava se eximir de culpa. Por dentro, entretanto, o riso estava contido e ela só não permitiu que saísse porque não olhava diretamente para o outra - senão, com certeza teria caído no riso.
She tried not to let her cough announce her presence as she rounded one more corner than she would take to get to her own dorm, but it was hard to cough quietly, even harder to hold it in. When she got this bad normally that was her straight off to Madam Pomfrey but that was the last thing she wanted, Pomfrey meant the hospital wing. And the Hospital wing meant a week long stay. And a week meant missing quidditch practice, she would not miss quidditch practice. Not when Vanity had taken a chance on her. Andromeda was her last chance.
A half-hearted knock was all she gave before she barrelled into the sixth year girls dorm room begging Emma not to be there. Spying her sister she coughed and sputtered eventually managing “Any- Any chance I could” she paused to catch her breath “I could see you for a sec?”
“ non , va te faire foutre pétronille ! ” ellie yelled at her cousin as she stormed off . “ you coming ? ” she asked as she grabbed andromeda by the wrist at random . “ i need some air ”
welcome to hogwarts college, ANDROMEDA BLACK, ARIEL MACKAY, JAMES POTTER & RITA SKEETER! a lot has changed since we last saw you around — you’ve got twenty - four hours until your next class starts up. jessie mei li, sydney sweeney, brandon arreaga & ana de armas are now taken.
( jessie mei li, twenty-one, cis woman ) hey, was that ANDROMEDA BLACK passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the PUREBLOOD in forever, but I’d recognize HER anywhere. rumor has it the FOURTH year is studying to be a HEALER. they always reminded me of ANGEL ON FIRE by HALSEY. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by NO ONE. but despite all that I think they’re still EMPATHETIC, INDEPENDENT & STRONG-WILLED and RESERVED, CRITICAL & OLD-FASHIONED. and the SLYTHERIN alum still reminds me of champagne spilled on a mahogany table, a black snake winding its way up a tree, the sound of footsteps running in an empty alley, an elegant princess chained violently to a stone, gazing out at the endless starry night only to be reminded of how small you truly are, and teardrops staining every letter from home. well, then, I guess some things never change. ( tri, 21, gmt+10, she/her )
( sydney sweeney, twenty, cis woman ) hey, was that ARIEL MACKAY passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the MUGGLEBORN in forever, but I’d recognize HER anywhere. rumor has it the THIRD year is studying to be an AUROR. they always reminded me of THIS IS ME TRYING by TAYLOR SWIFT. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by NO ONE. but despite all that I think they’re still FERVENT, DAUNTLESS & ENCOURAGING and CRUDE, SELF-DEPRECATING & UNREASONING. and the GRYFFINDOR alum still reminds me of bottles of whiskey stashed under pillows, cherry red lips smeared throughout the night, screams echoing off a cliff, the great high followed by the crashing come down, and reaching and reaching but never quite achieving. well, then, I guess some things never change. ( tri, 21, gmt+10, she/her )
( brandon arreaga, twenty, cis man ) hey, was that JAMES POTTER passing by? I didn’t think the PUREBLOOD was a student, but I’d recognize HIM anywhere. rumor has it they’re working as an AUROR, so who knows what they’re doing here. they always reminded me of LITTLE TALKS by OF MONSTERS AND MEN. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. but despite all that I think they’re still CHARMING, INCISIVE & PASSIONATE and DEPENDENT, INEXORABLE & ARROGANT. and the GRYFFINDOR alum still reminds me of atlas shaking with the world on his shoulders, boisterous laughter at three in the morning, death waiting for you at every turn, a marble statue with chips on every inch, and icarus careening towards the sun. well, then, I guess some things never change. ( tri, 21, gmt+10, she/her )
( ana de armas, twenty-one, cis woman ) hey, was that RITA SKEETER passing by? so much has happened recently; I haven’t seen the HALFBLOOD in forever, but I’d recognize HER anywhere. rumor has it the FOURTH year is studying to be a JOURNALIST. they always reminded me of NOBODY by MITSKI. I’ve also heard they’ve been recruited by THE BANNERET OF BELTANE. but despite all that I think they’re still DILIGENT, CLEVER & INSIGHTFUL and DECEITFUL, APATHETIC & INCONSIDERATE. and the RAVENCLAW alum still reminds me of perfectly coiled calligraphy, calling hundreds your friend only to eat dinner alone, that one piece of hair that just won’t sit right in the bun, the chaos of being caught in the middle of a storm, a quiet snake blending in with the grass, and permanently ink-stained fingertips. well, then, I guess some things never change. ( tri, 21, gmt+10, she/her )
