who: @rsrevan where: ministry of magic event: ministry spring gala 1979

Decently late into the night and yet far too early to call it one and leave; that was the only way the timeframe they were all in could be described as. Of course, a few people had already left and truthfully the witch couldn’t blame them. Apart from a few rather dramatic turns the event had been rather calm; too quiet and tame for her liking. There had been the woman seemingly cursed and, from the whispers, a drink spilled, but beyond that it seemed almost too quiet. Either a storm was brewing or this whole day was at risk of ending up entirely boring. It was good to have some friends around to make up for the lack of chaos to unfold around them.

For a few minutes now the brunette had been making her rounds, scanning the crowd as she normally would, picking up a conversation here and there without ever bothering to stay for too long. Emmeline had been just about ready to make her way back to the bar when she spotted a face that brought forth at least a little bit of a smirk as she made her way over. “Look at you, hiding out among the crowd. Almost wouldn’t have noticed you there.” A shrug, her face filled with just a hint of disdain as she let her eyes roam the crowd closest to the other. “Lucky for you; you stick out among the others.”

Emmeline had never made it a habit of hers to open talk about these people that she felt to be in the wrong world, the wrong place. She had her opinions, very well known to those she actually cared to share them with. An occasional snappy comment, that was about the extent of her way of voicing her dislike of those lesser than them. In truth even she herself did not fit the criteria, but she was doing her best to make up for it. “Enjoying the festivities?” The brunette allowed her eyes to linger, for just a moment before taking a sip from the glass still in her hand. Lavender champagne.

who: @rsrevan where: rosier manor when: late evening

A day that had started out within the atelier and yet ended with her out all day, the witch had been rushing about to sort some matters that simply couldn't wait. Coming home to be informed by one of the elves that her brother was home, for once a convenient timing, the blonde couldn't help herself but look for him. When she finally spotted the other, a smirk on her lips she made her way into the library with nonchalance.

Finally she whirled around, having enough of the play-pretend. "Couldn't have given me any more warning about the engagement before the wedding?" Leta glanced at her brother, a mix of a huff and an amused chuckle lacing her voice. She didn't mind, not one bit. In fact, she was glad her twin had finally found someone he felt he could commit to. "I do not mind. I am happy for you, honestly. Alara is wonderful, in fact, a perfect choice, but the questions...," She trailed off, shaking her head at the memory. "Tell me you had to deal with equally as many questions!"

Starter for: @rsrevan

After the news had broken, Val hadn't had much difficulty in deciding where to go first. The betrothal had been lengthy. A period with a lack of physical touch, of intimacy. She knew she probably had to speak with Amycus first. Or tell her brother. But it was neither of these two doorsteps she was standing on right now.

Before doing any of that, Val was going to take care of some of the most ancient known to man urges... lust. And he was the perfect person for it. To be able to give in after all those times they couldn’t... The woman waited patiently for the door to be opened by the house elf that had interrupted them with breakfast the other day as well, stepping inside the house. It was in the hallway that she came face to face with Evan.

"I'm pretty sure you want to know what you have done to deserve this surprise visit?"

Alara had seen him a few times, something about him called to her, definitely the aura he gave off, that lured her in. There were a few times that she heard that he could be found at this pub, the atmosphere giving her the creeps, but she would take the chance to see him.

Taking a chance, she steps into the pub, hues scanning the room until they find his, her heart skipping a beat finalising he was actually here. A hand comes up to tuck hair behind her ear, chewing on her bottom lip before taking a deep breath, walking over to him.

"Drinking alone?" She smiles at him, glancing at the empty seat.

"Surprise. Your favorite cousin's here to see you. And don't even try to pretend it's not me, you know I'm much better company than my brother." Emma teased as she sat down opposite to Evan. "I didn't see you at the ministry gala, were you there or did you make up some excuse to get out of attending?"

Where: St Albans Cathedral, St. Albans, UK Who: @xrodolphusxlestrangex, @bellatrix-lestrxnge, @luciusmalfoyx, @rsrevan, @r-lestrcnge, @ggathena TW: Blood, Violence, Murder

With a loud crack, a large, cloaked figure appeared in the shadow of a large cathedral, wand in hand. Alastor Moody peered up at the building intently, his piercing eyes evaluating the building, from the stained glass windows lit from the inside, to the wide open front doors, seemingly calling to him, inviting him inside.

A piece of parchment had been delivered to his desk by an owl he had not recognized. Moody, working late into the night, as usual, had been the only one left in the office.

Though unsigned, Moody had recognized the messy handwriting of his head of department. The note read:

"Dark Mark seen in St. Albans, above the St. Albans Cathedral. Believed to be another muggle masacre. Head off the muggle authorities."

Another masacre? Moody had thought grimly, already reaching for his traveling cloak. Per regulations, he should have reached out at least to his partner, or the Auror team on call, but evidently his boss had known he routinely stayed late and would already be ready to go.

The Cathedral stood before him, dark and foreboding, but it was nothing compared to what was above it. Hung above the ancient structure, seemingly suspended among the stars in an eerie emerald light, a serpent protruded from the mouth of a skull, twisting and winding its way through the sky as if it was alive. The Dark Mark. Moody made his way quickly up the steps and into the building, his wand held at the ready. Each shadow could potentially hold an attacker, behind every door could be one of the masked terrorists they had been chasing. As he entered the nave, the horror of what had been done met his eyes. "Fucking hell," Moody breathed.

Bodies were strewn across the room, some slumped across pews, many lay about the floor as if they'd been killed while trying to flee. One body, the body of a priest, was sprawled across the alter at the front of the church, arms splayed out, blood slowly dripping from his fingertips to the floor. Puddles of blood littered the floor, and sprays of the crimson liquid covered the pews and walls, tinting the formerly beautiful windows a dark red in the dim lighting.

It was a massacre, indeed. Not spotting a wand among any of the bodies, Moody knew it must have been done by dark magic, as the damage to each corpse was too destructive to be done by muggle means. The masked lunatics they had been chasing had certainly shown a propensity for killing muggles for sport. But this was a whole other level of violence they had yet seen.

It was... sadistic, for lack of a better term. There was no other way to describe it. Pure sadism.

It was likely the pure atrocity of the scene that nearly cost the seasoned auror his life. He hadn't heard the footsteps behind him, nor the whisper of the incantation-- only the rushing sound of wind warned him of the curse that had been aimed at his back. Out of pure, base instinct, Alastor Moody threw himself to the side, landing in between two pews, and the blaze of light narrowly missed him and collided with the Crucifix at the front of the Church, which burst into raging flames.

Evan was a few years older than Georgette. And he was a Slytherin as opposed to her Ravenclaw. Why would she know who he was? Well, like any Slytherin he made himself known enough. Maybe not like other Purebloods but enough that she knew who he was. And enough to not be too pleased with him. When he sat down next to her, she shifted on her stool. She didn't want anyone in that seat, but surely she could have gotten better company that Evan Rosier -- who would have been better company she wasn't sure but it wasn't him.

"Don't tempt me to show you they're not empty threats," she took a sip of her butterbeer. "And don't call me love. I'm not your love." She could feel him look at her. "Take a picture. It lasts longer." She took another drink without turning toward him.

Talk about a bad life. "It's been a day just like any other if you must know." Georgette didn't care to ask about his. Maybe if she didn't he would go elsewhere.

The Three Broomsticks wasn't an usual place for Evan to be hanging out in, but from time to time he allowed himself a change of scenery, eager to see new faces that he could corrupt. He spotted one he knew, though her hair was different from the last time he'd seen her, back at Ollivander's. A devilish smirk settled on his lips as he slid in the seat beside her, gesturing for the bartender to get him a drink and fast. "I don't respond well to empty threads, love." Evan told the witch, turning his head to give her a good look. "Bad day, perhaps?"

"Second door to the left," Anthony murmured to himself, fairly certain that those were Greta's instructions for the bathroom. Second door to the left, his mind recounted as he wandered down the hall. Head still reeling from waking up, and the numerous pints he had necked the night before. Since waking up, it had took him almost half an hour to nurse one glass of water. Needing nothing more than a splash of water across his face to wake him up, Anthony had asked to go to the bathroom

Instead, as Anthony opened the door which was supposed to lead to the bathroom. He caught a glimpse of a rogue bare (@rsrevan) arse cheek. Certainly more than what a hungover Anthony had bargained for. "What the fuck-" Anthony jumped back, shutting the door behind him with a loud SLAM. Very clear that he had caught two people in a very private situation.

Before he knew it, his feet had carried him to the furtherest point, the kitchen. "Sorry - Sorry - I thought it was the bathroom. Greta told me-" Rubbing at his chin with his hand, as he avoided the gaze of the person who walked in.

Apolline was grabbing bread from the bakery before heading home to meet Etienne for dinner, knowing it was the only item missing for the meal. The witch knew a short cut through the alley, that would give her a more secure place to apparate, turning down the darken space when she bump into the back of someone. "Sorry." Her accent think, taking a step back. Her body grew rigid when they turned around and she recognised the face, a wizard she may have used her powers on. "I shall go back." The blonde takes a step back.

TIME: at lucius and narcissa's wedding, just after the ceremony LOCATION: outside the venue

The morning had been beautiful, love so thick and heavy in the air that one might choke on it. Luckily, Pandora loved love. What she did not love was these empty declarations of it. "I hate weddings," she said to her cousin bluntly. "How could you possibly stand there and promise you'll stay with someone under any and every circumstance, and mean it? It just seems so fake. Or short-sighted. If I get married, my vows are going to be 'I'll be with you until I don't want to'. That makes so much more sense, don't you think?"

who: @rsrevan where: arcana obscura, the shop when: evening, shortly before closing

Reality was such a bizarre thing; a world right outside your doorstep that was entirely out of your control, to the point where some of the things happening around seemed almost to cruel to acknowledge. Emmeline had, despite the internal conflict, dealt with it the only way she could; by putting on a mask even to herself. Let the world see only what they want to see. For the most part it had worked. The days spent in Italy, the intention so simple, had turned her world upside down yet again. It was just another thing the witch intended to deal with in her own time, her own.

For the most part she'd busied herself in the shop. Time off from the ministry had helped, allowed her to spend as much time as possible within those four walls she felt so very at home in. Analyzing, fixing and sorting; if nothing else she could do that. It wasn't until the doorbell announced someone's presence that the witch looked up from the book she'd been noting things down in. It was an encounter she'd dreaded for days. It had been easy to pretend all was well during wedding; to avoid the one in question the moment that her stomach began to turn and her mind to race. Answers would help no one.

"Rabastan isn't in. I believe today is one of the days spent at Gringott's. That, or the manor. Or the town house." Emmeline put the quill down, with fingers that trembled just so much more than she cared to give away. "I can give him a message if you'd like." She had always known this day would come. Why was it so hard? "Congratulations on your engagement. Alara is a lovely and exceptional witch. And, from the rumors flying about, a stunning baker on top of that." And she meant it, every single word.

Days could be long and drawn out, could last until the late hours of the night if one wasn’t careful. Despite all that Leta had come to love her work at Madam Malkin, enjoyed having a say in what various of their social circles would wear. In fact, the mere idea of the control hidden within each thread, each square of elegant fabric; there was far too much joy in that. For the last ten minutes she’d been searching the manor for her brother, wondered just where he’d hidden himself away when finally, she got lucky in the library. A cough, her presence announced as she made her way over to him. Delicate fingers placed a box down. “There you are. Are you hiding or is this entirely coincidental?” Leta pushed the box toward him; the suit she’d promised to finish. Certainly, one of the nicer pieces she’d designed in his name.

“The customers were dreadful today. Well, most of them anyway.” A few too many of the muggleborn kind, ready to shop for their Hogwarts robes and in between the adults that seemed to lack any form of social etiquette. No blame could be spoken. The world they came from simply was too different for them to grasp the basics. “Please tell me your day’s been nicer.” No mistake was to be made. When the word nicer was used she hardly meant a day full of the lushest pleasantries, no. She merely hoped her twin to have walked through more interesting chaos than a matter of which fabric to use for a new robe; a robe that would be wasted on the wrong person.

"And even though I am a pain in your sexy ass, you keep coming back," Val pointed out to the man in front of her, softly tapping her hand against his chest with a smile on her lips. She couldn't stop herself from laughin when Evan pointed out to her what could be a great idea to him for a party. "I am afraid that that is not possible for this party. I think many of the officials here would kick you out very quickly. That, and probably get some fee from you as well." Val slightly tilted her head as she looked up at him. "But keep that in mind for the afterparty."

He couldn't stop himself from rolling his eyes at her. The witch in front of him had known him for years and all too well to be perfectly aware that he could never really get mad at her. She made good use of it and he could only ever scoff or roll his eyes mockingly. "Perhaps I just know you that well, you've been a pain in my ass for far too long Val." The wizard teased her as the hand that had been holding hers guided it to rest on his chest as well, then sneaking his own around her waist as they kept moving swiftly. "The idea I currently have is that if this were my party, I'd be drinking Dragon Barrel Brandy from your belly my dear." It was actually more of a suggestion and Evan made sure it was clear as he gave her a smart grin and a nod of his head."

Zafar was shocked to learn that Evan was engaged, he knew about his friend enjoying the time he spent with the youngest Selwyn, but not that it was serious enough to put a ring on it. Had he not learned of the mess he was currently in, that he would go and do the same.

A hand came to rest on his friends shoulder. "I'm going to have to borrow this bloke for a moment." He waited for the others to leave. "Did you get her pregnant?" That had to be the only reason he was now engaged.

where: their home who: @rsrevan

Alara had finished a cake for another wedding that was happening in tomorrow, ready at the bakery, that she was spending the night at home, in her kitchen, working on the sample cakes for Emma Vanity to try. They had an appointment lined up for the following day and it wouldn't take her too long to get what she needed done. The icing's were done and in the fridge, that she had to make the few cake batters.

She had a glass of wine off to the side, an assortment of ingredients on to the island with six or seven bowls. Music filled the air, songs of the Beatles having her dance. This was her happy place.

The sound of the kitchen door opening, had her turn, bowl in arm, spoon in hand, mixing, where she found Evan standing there. "You are home early." She was surprised to see him. Since the wedding, he had been working late nights and part of her wanted to ask where he was going, but it was something she knew better than to do. "Did you want to help?" She was expecting him to say no.

[alectocarrowx]

where: the garden kew, london who: @rsrevan

Alecto was surprised to learn that Evan was engaged and even more so, who it was, considering what she had learned during her recovery. She did as Rabastan asked, remained out of it, but would be there for her friend, making note to check in on her once she was done with him.

"Alara Selwyn." A pause. "I will admit, I was shocked with this arrangement considering all." She understood why Emmeline and Evan could not be together, but this felt drastic. "From what I can tell, the ring is decent." A slight jab at him, the ring was beautiful, but she wouldn't admit that.
