Rabastan was in a bad fucking mood.

He'd been in a bad mood for about a week, probably a bit before then because he'd somehow been dragged into decorating the entire bloody manor with his mother. She'd guilted him, to be honest, crying about how she didn't have grandchildren and he snapped that he'd help her put the bloody garland up if she would stop her ridiculous attempts at getting him to procreate.

St. Mungo's was ridiculously obnoxious with its brightly lit corridors and bustling employees. How could anyone possibly be jolly all the fucking time? Rabastan supposed it let him slip in and out of the crowds a bit easier, but still. When you were trying to create a bloody scene to save a man's life (not something he found himself thinking--ever), it became irritating, quickly.

He turned a corner and pulled out his wand, extracting the spell from the walls of the hospital that kept it lit so brightly. Rabastan grinned as the light flashed and turned into darkness, his wand spinning once in his hands.

Well, then.

"Happy Valentine's Day!"

Eliza smiled happily over at the Ravenclaws as they entered the dormitory, even if they stared back oddly. There wasn't much time before curfew left, and even though she'd been invited through the entrance, Eliza felt like waiting outside for Dedalus tonight. Why? She couldn't be sure, maybe it was that her mind was too silly to answer one of the knocker's questions tonight, or maybe because she wanted to snog in the corridor.

Mm, that was probably it. Though the knocker had been asking some difficult questions, leaving some lovestruck couples stumped for a good few minutes before they were allowed access. Mm, no, no she wasn't going to attempt to persuade the knocker to let her in, Dedalus could come and rescue her from the trials that was entering the Ravenclaw dorm.

She probably should have told him that she was going to wait outside, but she figured a kind soul would inform their head boy that his girlfriend was standing outside. Because it was Valentine's Day! Everyone had to be nice today. Or else they got jeered at--

"People are kind," she said with a laugh as Dedalus appeared. Eliza leaned back into the wall, one foot pressed up against it as she grinned, "My mind is far too scrambled tonight to get past the knocker."

WHO: Dedalus Diggle and Eliza Alderton
WHAT: D:
WHERE: His room
WHEN: RIGHT NOW!

( Merlin. Calling Dedalus Diggle an idiot. )

The yarn tied to the end of her four-poster was pulling taut as Eliza braided the three strands. Her feet were pressed strongly against the end board as she pulled the yarn as far as she could, looking far too concentrated than when she was usually making or creating something. Usually it just came, or...or flowed, yes, that was the word, but lately---lately she'd actually been having to try to draw, or paint, or write, or sew, and Eliza wasn't liking it.

It may have had to do with her growing suspicions about her boyfriend. Except Eliza wouldn't exactly cause them suspicions, because that would mean Dedalus was doing something bad or...or doing something she didn't approve of, because he wouldn't. So...so she was concerned about his odd behavior, and had been for quite some time, and maybe it was starting to affect her in different ways.

"Dang it," she muttered; she'd messed up the twist and began to unravel the yarn as the door of the dormitory opened. Eliza smiled lightly at Ingrid as she continued untangling the mess she'd made.
