Hogwarts RPG Name: Cameron Rhodes Ravenclaw Fourth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Phoebe Calypso [s]Dupont[/s] Slytherin Seventh Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Charlie Fox-Matthews Hufflepuff Second Year | Which came first, the phoenix or the flame? SPOILER!!: Sloane Quote:
Originally Posted by aRogueOne Sloane could understand her want to not be hated. Sort of. Not really. She, herself, could not care less if the population on mass hated her. If members of her family could hate her, what did it matter if some random second year girl thought she was nasty. Trying her best to be some kind of friend however, Sloane gave her best smile, put one hand on Phoebe’s shoulder and said, “If they hate you, I’ll just curse them behind their back. It’s fine.” Her expression may have been pleasant, but she was deadly serious. No one messes with her…friends. “I guess that…makes sense? You can just use magic though. I mean, I’ve seen people summon things so maybe you could learn how to do that? Y’know, instead of me turning you into a green ogre.” As for the compliment, Sloane simply shrugged it off. She was being honest. If she thought Phoebe was being lame or struggling, she’d tell her and then help her. But she’d be brutally honest if she had to be.
Doing her best to get as comfy as possible, Sloane wiggled on the spot until she was as deep into the chair possible as the movie opened and the music hit. It was suuuuuch an old movie and the quality of it was very poor but she still enjoyed it none the less. Popcorn helped. Not the giggliest of children, even Sloane let slip a few giggles as the donkey began talking and flying. She liked him as a character but she would not have appreciated him as a friend. Phoebe cared a lot a lot about if people liked her or not. She needed friends her age to stop her from being lonely, and well... she couldn't have that if "everybody" thought she was annoying. Like Francesca, and probably Dia, and also probably Sloane at some point. Like when Phoebe cried a lot. She opened her mouth to ask if... if... nevermind. Phoebe tried to let go of her worries. "Thanks, Sloane. I'm glad you're here for me. I'll always be a good friend to you too, I promise." And when Phoebe promised, she really truly meant it. "I could summon the item I want, or even a stepstool to help!" Sloane was so helpful! Why didn't Phoebe think of those things? Phoebe thought magic was the most useful thing ever. She settled in to watch the movie. She loved Shrek and Fiona. She hated the villain. She thought the donkey was funny but also worried... "I'm not like the donkey in this movie," she declared to nobody in particular. "I'm just not." Just in case anybody was wondering. She was more like Fiona, who was beautiful even though she didn't think so.
Phoebe fell asleep at some point, hugging her soda. She slept through the last 20 minutes of the movie. |
