#c: In solitude there are answers (Theo)

[mayhemxmugglesxmagic]

“ She’s gone. ” Draco began, voice cracked glass and winter wind. Viridity encased the hastily swaddled form of Scorpius in shades of jade, as the pair stepped through the floo. Draco had been in Knockturn, scouting properties for his workshop, a base for his alchemic studies when Mipsy, his house elf,  had appeared with his son and a note. 

I can’t do this -- I’m sorry.                                   it read in Astoria’s light and loopy script. 

Panic -- a familiar swarm of fire ants, claimed his throat as he returned to their townhouse in central London to find her things gone, all traces of her existence in his life, minus their wedding photos, erased. Their wedding day had been a cataclysm of defeat born out of convenience, and Draco had found comfort in their mutual unhappiness. They’d agreed to cohabitate and to go on living their separate lives to appease their families, to fulfil their duties, and when that had no longer been enough -- a child, an heir, Scorpius.

“ I didn’t know ...” he continued, eye’s -- storm clouds over the shore, rain drops encased in terror. “ I don’t know ...”

– The end of an all night Slytherin study session; Pansy opens the curtains, a collective groan echos -

Theo: Sweet suffering Merlin, it's the morning already! What are we gonna do?

Pansy: Well maybe we could start with calmin' the fuck down.

Theo: Calm down? We're still on William the Orange, Pansy -- haven't even looked at the famine, let alone the Irish goblin rebellion, or pixie rising!

Pansy: We got the gist, they ran out of spuds, the goblins lost some gold -- everyone was raging.

Vince: Well, I still can't tell me rebellions from my risings.

Greg: And who's fault is that. If your lot had stopped invading us for five fuckin' minuets there'd be a lot less to wade through -- English prick.

Draco: Circe's tits -- Not this again.

[mayhemxmugglesxmagic]

Theo: When I woke up this morning I had a feeling something terrible was going to happen, and also that essentially deep down, I'm quite an evil person.

Pansy: It's called a hangover, Theo. You'll be grand.

[mayhemxmugglesxmagic]

Theo: *studiously doing homework, listening to instrumental music, very focused*

Greg: *upside down in a chair* do you think stars have feelings?

‘  why  did  you  hit  him?  ’ (Greg)

“ What ya’ mean? ” Greg began, voice -- gravel on wet cement, skinned knuckles held to his chest. “ Didn’t ya’ see the way he was looking at us, whisperin’ and laughing? Fecking eejit will thick twice now wont he. ”

[mayhemxmugglesxmagic]

Pansy: All we need to do is a little creative charm work, and those Gryffindors wont know what hit them.

Theo: Your mind is amazing. If you put this much effort into your school work --

Pansy: Merlin, why do you have to ruin everything?

Greg: I know -- always talkin' about my potential.

[mayhemxmugglesxmagic]

Pansy: Adrian Pucey was telling me you stopped by the bakery yesterday lunch time.

Draco: Well that's hardly news.

Pansy: Two buns he said you ordered.

Draco: Well, I often do.

Pansy: An apple turn over and a treacle tart.

Theo: Treacle tart? That's not like you. Couldn't pay you to eat treacle tart.

Draco: It was a bakewell tart. Apple turnover and a bakewell tart.

Pansy: Treacle tart it was, Pucey said.

Greg: Bakewell, Treacle who cares?

Pansy: He swore on it, said he saw it being bagged up.

Blaise: Pucey has eye's like a hawk.

Pansy: He said when you left you turned up Pump street.

Theo: Pump street? Who do you know on Pump street, Draco?

Pansy: What were you doing heading up Pump street, with a treacle tart?

Draco: I was visiting a friend of mine.

Theo: What friend?

Draco: A new friend.

Pansy: Oh, new is he?

Draco: Yes, new.

Greg: Doesn't Potter own a place up Pump street?

Draco: I wouldn't know, Potter and I --

Blaise: Potter, of course.

Greg: We can do without the details, Draco.

Pansy: No we can't.

A silent nod.                     A thin breath. 

“ That makes two of us then. I tried once semi-successfully in fifth year before everything, but ever since this ” Draco paused, eyes drifting to his forearm. The twisted flesh -- burnt ashen wood spiraling in on itself seemed to crack. “ nothing.”

“ I am being reasonable, Theo!” Pansy screamed, voice -- banshee on the prowl. “ Don’t you get it? I’m purple. PURPLE! and Draco saw, everyone saw. I bet it was those Weasel twins, and just because I laughed at that ridiculous dwarvin valentine their sister sent to Potter. Merlin, I’m basically a giant blueberry!” 

Pansy pressed her back against the door, and slid to the ground with a thud, her tights damp from the cold castle floor.

“ This is an absolute nightmare, Theo! I may as well stay in here until I expire, an old moldy blueberry, just waiting to be thrown in the bin.”

🌟 for Ginny

Send me a 🌟 and I’ll give you five thread ideas involving our muses!

V; Binning Binns -- Ginny is the new Flying instructor for Hogwarts and an unlikely relationship begins to bloom between the pair. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Ginny’s innate sense of justice tends to get her in trouble from time to time. This is one of those times because the points taken away from Slytherin really should have been taken away from her, and she says as much. Now the Gryffindor’s are mad, and more and more Slytherin’s are talking to her including Theo. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Theo happens across a tearful Ginny after a particularly nasty fight with Dean.

V; Digging Deep -- Theo has heard there are particularly old artifacts around The Burrow, and Ginny is nominated to keep Theo company while she works. 

V; The Weight of the World -- Ginny and Theo end up sharing a muggle cab after a night out and have a chat about expectations, the past, the future, and everything in between.

🌟 for Greg

Send me a 🌟 and I’ll give you five thread ideas involving our muses

V; Digging Deep -- Greg, a private magic security officer is hired to accompany Theo and a handful of curse breakers in exploring a recently unearthed tomb. The curse breakers aren’t very good at their jobs, and the pair is trapped. 

V; Mother Revolution -- Greg gets arrested for having ‘a little chat’ with the father of Theo’s twins. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Theo is trying to help Greg study, but he’s much more interested in brainstorming ways to take the piss out of Draco for being English. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Greg needs help. He wants to ask Millie to the Yule Ball, but hasn’t a clue how. He goes to Theo for advice. 

V; The Bleak Winter -- Greg is finally at the top of the class. He’s taken the mark, no looking back. The Carrow twin’s brightest pupil, but when asked to report weakness and any inklings of decent from within the Slytherin ranks he’s not sure he can, especially when it’s Theo he may have to report.

🌟 for Draco

Send me a 🌟 and I’ll give you five thread ideas involving our muses!

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- News that Lucius and Leontius have been arrested at the Department of Mysteries reaches the pair. Draco’s confused. Theo’s suspicions are confirmed. He finds her alone in the common room after hours. A uncharacteristically serious chat of the future ensues.

V; The Bleak Midwinter -- Theo and Draco share a compartment on the train returning to Hogwarts their sixth year. Anyone would be able to tell the summer had not been kind to either of them. They have conversation seemingly about biscuits. 

V; Little Princess -- The pair are out playing in the garden of the Nott family home one evening and spot a Will-o'-the-wisp. They follow it, and get lost in the woods. 

V; The Weight of the World -- While helping clean out the manor Theo and Draco happen across piles and piles of letters between their ancestors from long ago. Some unopened, some unsent, some read so often they’re falling apart and in these letters is a mystery, a murder, and a curse. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Draco is quite good at, and quite enjoys Divination -- not that he tells anyone. He discovers something interesting in the tea leaves of Theo’s cup one summer.

🌟 for Pansy

Send me a 🌟 and I’ll give you five thread ideas involving our muses!

V; Digging Deep -- Pansy, growing bored of writing ‘romance’ novels instead turns to writing true crime. However, she still decides to gather intel and inspiration in relatively the same way -- dating and imbedding herself in criminal organizations. She gets in over her head, and pisses off the wrong people. Theo’s the only one she can think to turn to as the organization seems to be dead set on using this ancient relic for some nefarious purpose ... the same relic Pansy may have stolen from them in a panic. 

V; What Did You Learn in School Today? -- Pansy is cursed. Her skin sprouts poisonous thorns, that send whoever they prick into a deep sleep. Each day she awakens to a new cluster of them, and no one seems to known what’s happened. The answer may lie somewhere in the history of the school and the Parkinson family line. Theo takes it upon herself to help solve the mystery while keeping Pansy from impaling and potentially sending the majority of the school into an endless slumber. 

V; Little Princess -- Pansy’s mother is concerned her daughter doesn't have any other little girls to play with, and as such sets up a playdate for Theo and Pansy. Just two little Princesses exploring Parkinson Place and the plethora of Pansy’s stuffed animal zoo. 

V; The Weight of the World -- A girls night out goes south when they find themselves at a nightclub in muggle London that’s a cover for a death eater revival movement and someone recognizes Theo. 

V; Mother revolution -- Pansy in the midst of a false pregnancy scare goes to Theo who unbeknownst to her is pregnant. Shenanigans and hurt feelings ensue.
