Hugo liked going out. He didn't always dance, but he liked mingling with people and drinking to relax after a long week. January, already a typically long month, was made longer by the unwelcome visitors so Hugo just wanted to kick back now that they were gone. He'd felt trapped while the villains were in Goodland, especially after nearly getting mauled by Scar.

He was hanging out near the bar when he noticed a familiar face - the woman who took his snake. "Oh, hey, Laura!" He called over the music. "How's it going?"

With her hearing Laura had no real problem hearing despite the background noise. She wasn't entirely sure how that worked; she would have thought the loud music would have drowned everything out, but instead she was able to distinguish between sounds, tune out the ones that weren't relevant, focus on the ones that were.

She was surprised to see it was Hugo that had gotten her attention - she didn't typically have a huge amount to do with all the Hogwarts wizards aside from the occasional few comments on the network. She didn't have anything against him though, so she pushed her empty shot glass back across the counter and waved off the bartender, turning back to where she could see the dance floor, angled a bit towards the wizard. "You know. Just getting out of the building now we can. You?"

	Hugo grinned. Laura certainly seemed to be enjoying herself. "Same," he replied. "Nearly got eaten by a singing lion so I'm sort of over everything." He saw her looking toward the floor. "Want to dance, then?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Now there was a question. She'd been dancing with strangers plenty already, but it felt different dancing with someone she knew, someone who-- wasn't James. Then again, did the whole "too soon" thing even count when you got dumped for someone else? It was just a dance, anyway. It wasn't like she was going home with him.

"Sure, I guess." She injected a certain amount of casualness in her tone, like it wasn't a big deal. Because it wasn't. She wasn't the kind of girl who assumed that any guy who paid her a modicum of attention was into her, things were just weird right now. Break ups were weird. She hopped down from where she was leaning back against the bar, moving forward. "Was he singing when he tried to eat you?"

	He reached out a hand to guide her toward the dance floor, leaving it up to her whether she took it or not. He wasn't looking for anything serious; he just wanted to have a good time, but he was still taught how to be a gentleman. "Yes!" He exclaimed. "His name is Scar. You have a similar experience?"

She took his hand without really thinking about it, their linked fingers connecting them like a safety rope in the crowd. Immediately her mind began to catalog the ways it felt different from James', the places where he had callouses that Hugo didn't, and she pushed the thought away with a surge of annoyance.

"Hyenas," she supplied instead. "They didn't sing, but they talked."

	"Did they laugh or is that just a myth?" Hugo called over the music as he began moving to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"These ones did. But I don't know about real ones. Real ones don't talk either." The laughing had been more than a little disturbing, actually - when they'd first approached she'd spoiled, a little, for a fight, but their high-pitched cackling had been unnerving. She was used to a range of reactions from the people - or things - she thought, but naked glee was not one of them. For some reason it had made her think of Hellhound.

It was easier to forget things like that while dancing though. She liked the rhythm of it, the way it felt a bit like fighting but without the destruction.
