 Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!
Mamie had been absolutely certain Rosier had brought them out here to kill them. That was what he had said before, when he got mad those Gryffindors they were trying to contact somebody through the portraits. Kill the Muggleborns in the courtyard, he'd said. Or...something like that. The stress of this term was wreaking horror on Mamie's memory.
But no? They were just...getting new dorms? Not being allowed to leave said new dorms?
Mamie would have danced, if one of the Neo-Alliance scary people hadn't already grabbed her arm. She gave them a...passive...look. A look of acknowledgment, and a little resignation. Not being allowed to roam the castle was not that big a deal, to her. They still had to feed them, right? And they hadn't taken their wands yet, so they could at least still practice magic. And she'd do jumping jacks. They had already taken away flying, and writing home, and their holiday break. They'd tried to have them eaten by dragons. This? This was fiiiiine.
She stared at the ground, trying her best not to make eye contact with anybody, students or teachers. Didn't want Rosier thinking they were plotting trouble or anything. There was no defiance left in Mamie. She just wanted to survive. |
