welcome.

[Sin Stanley]

Sin wasn't in the mood for sleep just yet. In fact she was wide awake and in need of some last minute fun. All she had to do to fufill that need was to find her best friend Nadia and make yet another plot of torture. It wasn't going to be any fun for whoever their victim or victims might be but it would certainly be fun for them. Who knows what could happen though? Maybe Mei would grace them with her presence and decide to help torture the lesser people.

The common room was pretty dark and all of the other people were either out lurking or in bed. So she made herself comfortable plopping down inside a chair directly in front of the fireplace. Feeling the warmth of the fire made her feel a bit hot but that was only natural and she soon got used to it.

Where is that girl?,she thought glancing around the all to still room. Silence had a way of getting on her nerves. It also made her feel just a tiny bit paranoid. Shadows appeared to be dancing on the wall and she had to pinch herself just to keep from screaming. Then a creaking sound and a scream escaped her lips,"Who in bloody hell are you!?"

[Nadia Pepin]

After Nadia ran out of Hogsmeade, she went back to Hogwarts and walked around the grounds just to avoid having to talk to anyone. It was pretty late when she decended down the stairs to the dungeons, to the Slytherin commom room. It was cold, just the way Nadia liked it as she said the password and entered the common room. All she wanted to do at the moment was go to sleep, but someone caught her attention. She immediately knew who it was, but she didn't stop walking, she just kept going until she'd reached the staircase that led up to the dormitory.

"Who in bloody hell are you!?" she heard coming from Sin, causing her to turn around and look at the girl. "What do you mean who am I? Do you not know your friend anymore Sin?" she asked feeling just a bit hurt. Nadia looked around. She hadn't noticed how dark it was before now, and immediately pulled out her wand. "Lumos!" she said in a high whisper, hoping she wouldn't scare Sin.

"Don't you think that if you had some light it would have been easier to actually see who might come in Sin?" she asked, slightly irritated. Not by anything Sin had done of course, but by the events of today. "What are you doing up so late anyway?"

[Sin Stanley]

Sin felt very stupid when she saw that it was Nadia that had made the door creak. Something was bothering her friend though and she figured that it had a little something to do with the conversation the two girls had earlier that day. Not wanting to upset her friend anymore she smiled faintly making room beside her on the floor. They had better talk about what was bothering Nadia.

"Sorry about freaking out like that."she muttered still embarassed,"and it was dark because I was thinking about going to sleep and besides I love the dark." It was actually the truth. Ever since she was born she had loved the dark. Darkness brought a certain piece of mind to her despite the inability to see. It just made it easier to think as well as relax.

"So what's up?"she asked trying to make a halfway pleasant conversation,"I haven't seen you since lunch." That had seemed so long ago now compared to everything that had happend. But it was still fresh in her mind and felt as if it had been a few minutes ago and not a few hours. Still there had been a very touchy subject at lunch and she wasn't at all sure if she wanted to touch it right now.

[Nadia Pepin]

Nadia sat down beside her friend. She felt bad that she had snapped in such a way, but she couldn't exactly help it after the day she'd had. "Sorry for the way that sounded. I didn't mean to come off as rude, today just has not been my day." she said leaning against the couch. She was tired, and she just wanted the day to be over with. She smiled though as Sin told her she loved the dark. Nadia also loved the dark. It was just one of those things that made her surroundings better, even if it was only for a few minutes.

Nadia twiddled her thumbs, trying to think of something to talk about. She knew that eventually Sin would want to talk about what had been said earlier, but she just couldn't bring herself to talk about it again. She had only made a fool of herself, and she couldn't have that happen again, so she was glad when Sin talked.

"Yes I know you haven't seen me since lunch, Sin. I should probably say sorry for running out on you like that so, sorry. I just didn't know how to handle what you might say or think about me, so I came back to the school, and I walked around for the rest of the day all so that I wouldn't have to come back here." she said, sighing. Things like this were probably supposed to be hard at first.
