❛  when is it acceptable to take a drink.. how disrespectful is that like a close six? seven?  ❜

[trixbellablack]

“In defence of myself, I’m usually not this scatterbrained. Surely, you know that by know though. It won’t happen again.” Bellatrix swiftly handed the person in front of her their own textbook, a name that was not her own clearly inscribed on the inner fold, not wishing to dwell on her mistake. She nodded to her own property, ready to simply take it and be on her way. 

“I suppose you didn’t notice either considering you’ve been carrying mine around too.”

❝ whoever thought funerals were tolerable without alcohol was sorely mistaken. i wasn’t even close to the deceased and i definitely need a stiff one. care for anything? my treat.  ❞

    “  ---  so does anyone know where the aurors that are staying on campus are,  y’know,  staying?  do you think dumbledore’s making them all room together in a dorm,  with the matching four posters and everything? “  evan flashed a grin across the table,  reaching over for the pitcher of coffee.  “ that would give a real unfortunate sleepover vibe to the investigation. “

[liilyjane]

❛ hm ?  oh sorry - i’m a bit busy right now, did you need something ? ❜  swapping her gaze between the parchment she was scratching at and the person who had been trying to say something to her for god knows how long, lily tried as best she could to gather her thoughts.  ❛ if it’s urgent, or has anything to do with ms pendergrass’ disappearance i recommend finding the headmaster. i’m afraid that is all out of my hands. ❜

hogwarts was quiet lately, students seemed to be holding their breath until further news of corinne’s disappearance. the aurors lurking around school didn’t relax things further. and, if that wasn’t enough, quidditch practice would be starting up again soon as well as the thick of course examinations. caradoc, for once, had no time to thing of issues that were not his very own. so, when another classmate sat right in front of him at the library table he’d so carefully chosen for a saturday of study, a sharp tone of voice couldn’t be avoided.

“uh, excuse me? you’re sort of in my space here. can I help you with something?” rhetorical of course, but what else could be said without demanding the other person to leave?

               ❛   —  it’s  a  tragic  loss,   ❜   rita  murmured,  her  voice  low  and  husky.   ❛   —  her  poor  family.   ❜   yet  when  she  slid  her  gaze  over  to  the  person  standing  next  to  her,  her  eyes  weren’t  glimmering  with  tears,  but  with  a  detached  sort  of  curiosity.   ❛   —  and  how  are  YOU  holding  up  ?   ❜

not that he ever thought it would be easy, but balancing his head boy duties on top of quidditch and all his newt classes was proving to be more challenging than james had realized.  and given that he was too much of a social creature to give that up, sleep was the obvious sacrifice.  which is what led to him leaning against a suit of armor while he was doing his rounds.  james wasn’t sleeping on the job;  no, he was just resting his eyes.  but when he opened them again, he saw someone approaching.  “hello?”  nice one, potter.  with a quick  lumos  under his breath, his wand lit up the hallway.  “you shouldn’t be out this late, y’know.”

               it  was  unusual  to  see  peter  pettigrew  so  serious.  the  boy’s  cheeks  were  empty  of  their  usual  dimples;  his  pale  blue  eyes  glazed  over  in  deep  thought,  his  brow  creased  in  concentration.  it  was  if  a  cloud  had  passed  over  the  clear  blue  sky  that  was  peter’s  countenance.  but  the  cloud  only  stayed  for  a  moment  —  in  just  a  heartbeat  he  was dimpling  again,  running  a  hand  through  his  hair  in  a  disarmingly  endearing  mixture  of  cockiness  and  self-consciousness.  his  eyes,  dancing  with  mischief,  flicked  to  canvass  the  face  of  the  person  in  front  of  him,  watching  carefully  for  a  reaction  as  he  clapped  once  and  produced  a  worn  playing  card  from  seemingly  thin  air.  his  wand  lay  several  feet  away,  merely  an  innocent  spectator  to  peter’s  triumph  as  he  presented  his  audience  with  the  card  and  an  accompanying  smirk.  ❛   —  is  THIS  your  card  ?   ❜

❛  so let me get this straight... father time over there is stealing your woman, the only woman i’ve ever heard you actually talk about more than once... and you decided to walk away? i have to be missing something this does NOT sound like you.   ❜

[heroesflight]

“aw — shite!”  he yelled, perhaps a little too loudly.  but he’d fallen for the oldest trick in the book.  poor james hadn’t thought anything of it when someone asked him to hold their drink for him, but when he tried to set it down, he found it was charmed to his hand.  and when he tried to set his own down, it was similarly stuck.  he’d heard one of the muggle-born kids from hufflepuff call it  ‘edward fortyhands’  earlier.  “i don’t know who edward is but i’m gonna give him a piece o’ my mind.”  pouting, he lifted his own bottle up once more to take another swig.

❛     i’m taking a huge risk here,  ❜  theodore cleared his throat as he took a step towards andromeda, arms crossed on his chest. ❛    what i’m about to ask might make me come off as such a stereotype and really, it pains me to do this. however, i’m desperate and stupid because i apparently forgot to pack the one accessory crucial to feeding my nasty habit. SO, got a lighter ? i swear it’s not a pickup line, i’m pretty sure i heard someone use that earlier and it did not get him anywhere.   ❜

❛     WOAH there, vance. you alright? had a cup to many have we?  ❜  theodore chuckled, his hands stretched outward expectantly as he watched the girl dance away as if they had not just collided. ❛     actually, what are you drinking? i need to chug down my fair share of whatever that might be.   ❜
