"Well, I couldn't risk falling behind because I was attending some silly game! Succeeding is very important to me, if you have forgotten. I think you could really do great things if you weren't always playing Quidditch. Imagine all the work you could get done!"
(I'm guessing Scipio is that one student that Snape doesn't hate. But is still a savage to bc he's a hecking nerd)
(Wait, what time period are we doing?)
Allegra rolled her eyes. "In case you haven't noticed I get all of my work done on time."
"I'm not always playing qudditch. There's other things to do. Besides, Defense against the Dark Arts is one of my favorite classes." Eleanor frowned.
(I actually spent a while considering the difference between Slytherins and Ravenclaws. After conducting this mental investigation, I have come to the conclusion that Ravenclaws live more in the moment and Slytherins work towards a future goal. Think of Luna. She just went with the flow with no real end goal, just wanting to help along the way with the knowledge she had. But most Slytherins have some goal that they're trying to reach, whatever it may be. All in all, the two houses share the intelligence aspect, but Slytherins are preparing to put that knowledge to use)
(That was cool dude)
Hmmm, pre Harry I'd say. We don't need any drama about 'Oh did you hear about Harry Potter' or 'THE BOY WHO LIVED MARRY ME' or anything, and maybe marauder era? Or maybe even before them, but I think voldemort stuff is okay. It'd be like, when he had left hogwarts and kinda started killing people I guess, so a new threat rising quickly
(I said it earlier on the first page)
(Sounds about right.)
(I'm a Slytherclaw myself lol but I tend more to the Slytherin side. Once I have a set goal that I really care about, it will be achieved and I don't care what it takes to get there)
(I don't think Snape was Potions master until after Voldy was defeated the first time though. I might be wrong, but that's what I remember.)
(I think she meant if he was potions master)
"On time? But if you get it done early, you have more time to do things you want to do without worrying about completing it! You know, like working ahead in a class, or going to the library to research potions." Scipio's face flushed a bit when he realized how much of a nerd he was being.
(Yeah idk who the teachers are at this point)
Allegra stifled a giggle. "Well I guess you're right. I guess I just prefer doing it when I want to."
Eleanor nodded. "Yeah. I mean, homeworks fine and dandy, but quidditch is also fun."
"But you don't want to do it immediately? I've found procrastinating is a bad habit and causes a lot of potential anxiety. In fact, I performed a study on-" He stopped when he found the girls were giggling again and flushed harder. "I'll just be quiet now…"
"No it's cute." She snickered.
"Mate, it's fine if you ramble. My sister is in Ravenclaw, so I hear this kind of thing all the time."
Scipio crossed his arms, clearly pouting a bit. He hated being laughed at, as it made him feel stupid. "Stop laughing at me! I'm not cute!"
"Alright sorry. You are though." She winked at him and produced the bag of licorice she had been hiding behind her back. 'Candy?"
He rolled his eyes, his face pretty red at this point. "You do know that you're not allowed to hav- oh, whatever. It's not like you two care about the rules anyways…" He accepted a piece of licorice.
"I do care about rules! It's just some rules are…" She took a piece of licorice as she searched for the right word, "Idiotic."
(I gtg soon.)
"I agree. Rules are more like…..guidelines for behavior rather than mandate."
"Exactly!" Eleanor grinned, popping the licorice into her mouth.
(I gtg soon too)
"I do care about rules! It's just some rules are…" She took a piece of licorice as she searched for the right word, "Idiotic."
"Ah, yes. Like the majority of your house, hmm?" Scipio raised an eyebrow.
(Also, forgot to say, Scip's patronus is a black panther)
(But frens you cannot leave meee)
(Scipio is sassy sometimes. Particularly when it comes to Gryffindors)
(Hello? Frens?)
