who: @scormalfvy “nothing ever goes well when it comes to me.”
Katya was generally not one with much sympathy for self-pity, but she liked Scorpius, as well as respected him as her teammate, and, well, he wasn’t wrong. Besides, she automatically felt for someone who got screwed over by Gemma. It was the upshot of living with her — the more time you spend with a dangerous beast, the more you could understand how deep their teeth could cut their victims. “That’s a bit dramatic —- I mean, you’ll always have Quidditch,” she pointed out mildly—though Odilia was on the team, she supposed, which wasn’t ideal. She blew out a sigh, the huff of air pushing a strand of hair out of her face. “It does suck, Scor,” she said, more softly than her previous comment. “I’m sorry. You really haven’t had the best luck with girlfriends, huh?” Alice at least probably had cared about him—Katya was still unsure Gemma was capable of it—not that that might be particularly comforting anyway. And she was on the team too. Merlin. Scorpius really needed to date someone outside of Slytherin next time.
