RP: Green Power
Date: 29 September 1999 Characters: Amalthea Nott, Geoffrey Montague Location: Hogwarts Private/Public: Semi-private/semi-public Rating: TBD Warnings: probably none, except maybe angry ranting. Summary: Amalthea is in detention... again... someone comes along while she's working.
Amy was heartily tired of detentions. It felt like there was rarely a day she didn't have one, and she was very tired with it. It was humiliating--she was a Nott! She didn't mind work, but this kind of work?!--and she had so little time for her studies. So far her grades hadn't suffered, but she was scared that it was a matter of time.
However, instead of scaring her away, she dug her heels in even more firmly, refusing to budge from position on the side of Slytherin. This was so wrong, and she was being persecuted.
At least Tommy hadn't been nabbed this time. She did feel a bit bad when he ended up in detention too.
Filch was her watchdog tonight, but Peeves had done something or another and he'd had to run off to deal with it (Peeves had been only too happy to cause chaos at her request), and though Mrs Norris had been left there, a few charmed mice had taken care of her for the time being.
So Amy had curld up against the wall with a book on her lap, parchment and quill in hand, while her charmed toothbrush continued the work. She needed this time badly, and her fingers hurt from last week's scrubbing still. She ended up so involved in her work that she forgot to be completely vigilant, and so didn't hear the footsteps coming her way until it was too late.
