Hog's Head

Tons of people were pouring out and stuff. Boris just came back from errands and had two bags of stuff in both hands, but all that fell as people were coming out. Aberforth was really mad. "THIS IS MY PUB, DAMNIT!" he was yelling, but he didn't bother trying to stop them. Boris kind of stood there.

Olivia, among them, was sort of in a daze. She was wondering if the others would think she was a coward, or a traitor, or if she'd just proved the stereotype of Slytherins being evil self-centered bastards. Also, could she go back? "Where are we, anyway?"

Boris saw Olivia. He grabbed her wrist. "You idiot!" he yelled at her. "You're just going to escape?! Come ON, go back in there! Get back in there now, and SHOW them what you're capable of doing!"

[Bore=win]

"I was just going with the rest of the house." She jerked her wrist free.

"Well, at least think of the poor little chinchilla. Don't you want to avenge its torture?"

"... Oh my god, Jenny! I forgot!" She looked back at the huge crowd of people still pouring from the portal. "Oh, just great." [i]"So this is why everyone thinks I'm the comic relief. Damn."[i]

"OPAL!" screeched Rachel. She was just coming through the Hog's Head portal, and she buried her face into Olivia's tiny shoulder.

"I'm so glad you're alive!"

"... Rachel!" Olivia exclaimed, throwing her arms around her. "You smell awful."

[[LOL RACHEL.]]

"Go! Go, Olivia! I'll go with you," Boris said with a quick nod.

"Damn it!" she said turning to Bore. "I need comfort right now." she turned back to Olivia. "I just had sex with Nick and now he's going to DIE!"

Olivia pushed Rachel off of her, looking quite disgusted. "Okay, everyone's in mortal peril, you go fuck the 10 year old! You do that!"

"At least I stayed around and helped kicked a Death Eater's butt!" she shouted. "I didn't run away at first like the COWARD you are!" She got closer into Olivia's face. "Or leave my Chinchilla that's probably been stepped on! YOU'RE THE IDIOT WHO'S GOING TO STAND AROUND AND LET THE SLYTHERIN STEREOTYPES BE WASHED OVER YOU!"

"And since your here now, that means you ditched as well." Olivia blinked, piecing together a justification. "I got pushed here, thank you. Caught up in the crowd."

"Excuses!" she said, giving Olivia slight push. "Opal, look at yourself! You're a doormat! You always said you're going to laze around the rest of your days, living off your parents inheritance! Why don't you just go DO something worth while in this pathetic you've been living!"

There was a long silence as Olivia sorted through Rachel's insults. True, all of them. And so, unable to think of another excuse, she just looked Rachel right in the eye and said, "My name's not Opal." And with that, she pushed against the thinning crowd of students and stepped back through the portal.

[[Crowning Moment of Awesome?]]

She shook her head, and looked at Bore. "Finally. Someone's been needing to get that through that girl's school for seven years." she held out her hand. "My name is Rachel. You're Bore, I presume."

[possibly. we should have like an oscar thing going on for those.]

[AWARDS~]]


Boris nodded. He shook her hand. "Pleasure to meet you. And you, by any chance, are escaping all the ruckus?"

"Yes I am. I don't feel so good, anyway..."

"... Yeah, I heard you. Pretty bold, doing something like that." Boris nodded. "But, the first time is always the worst."

"...This is the second." she admitted.

"Ahhh. That's when it gets easier. Well, why do you feel weird, then?"

She shrugged, and shook her head. "I'm not sure. It's probably just one of those things. Besides, how do you know so much about this anyway?"
