Week Name/Date/Time: 'Settling Down' / Saturday, Nov 26 / 9:15 PM
Location: Sixth floor corridor (outside bathrooms.)
Open to: Sly
Currently involving: Avis
Avis was just finishing washing her face and getting ready for bed in the bathroom on the sixth floor. It was a bit difficult for her to move, as she had spent the day doing sit-ups and exercising in the Gryffindor common room. Her stomach also rumbled, since she hadn't eaten anything yet. Figuring this could make her feel a bit better about herself, what after being teased by Blaze and Jackie, confused by Ben and scared by a grindylow, and then being laughed at by Erik while "strutting". . .
Nope. It wasn't bound to make her feel any better about herself. She wondered what might, actually. Maybe if her charmed poster functioned CORRECTLY and said inspiring things rather than telling her to stop eating so many potatoes, she would have a bit of self-confidence. And not only in bursts, either. But after all, this was Avis, who had been proven by many different people to be the mardy bum of the school. Rinsing her hands off and catching a glimpse of herself in the mirror, she frowned at her round nose and numerous freckles, as well as her boring auburn hair. Well, at least it wasn't acting up today.
Perhaps if I was blonde, she thought to herself. Blondes have good luck. Avis changed her hair quickly, just to see what it would look like.
She just looked awkward and out of place. For some reason, she didn't think it went well with her nose. Or eyes. Or overall look. There's a reason you don't see blonde Persian birds, Abernathy, she told herself and gathered her things, ambling out to the empty corridor and changing her hair back to it's normal brown color. Perhaps she'd have to try something else.
