CORDELIA & AVALON

cordelia
weasley

avalon
yes, cordelia?

cordelia
so you know how you were poisoned?
with oleander?

avalon
yes i recall
i was there
why

cordelia
so i did some digging
investigating on my own, if you will

avalon
what did you find?

cordelia
so i bribed some hufflepuff who's in the year above me
and he said that the sixth year herbology class was going over plant-based poisons and their antidotes 3 days before valentine's day

avalon
okay and

cordelia
merlin, i know you gryffindors aren't known for being the brightest but really, avalon. put 2 and 2 together

avalon
FINE
give me a minute
OH MY GOD

cordelia
did you figure it out?
or do you need me to spell it out for you

avalon
oleander is a poisonous plant
and i happen to know a sixth year hufflepuff who hates me
so if she was given all the information she needs to get back at me, she easily could have done it

cordelia
finally
so do you want to kill her, or should i?

avalon
wow, since when were you that invested in my well-being?
and no, we aren't killing shepherd

cordelia
since your sister nearly had a heart attack when chambers found you passed out
aw :( why not

avalon
because as much as i hate her, she's just a bigoted little princess who needs to be taught a lesson
but clearly, me beating the shit out of her hasn't taught her anything
so i'm going to tell the scariest person i know

cordelia
no
you can't be serious
NO

avalon
yup
i'm going to tell my mother

TEDDY & AVA

teddy
hey

ava
hiii love how are you

teddy
why did i have to hear that you were poisoned from vic
and not you

ava
i dunno, why did i have to hear that you obliviated me from my father
and not you?

teddy
those are two completely different things and you know it ava
you were POISONED
and you didn't tell me

ava
because i knew you'd worry
i promise i was going to tell you eventually
just when i got back to normal

teddy
you're alright though?

ava
yes, teddy
i'm fine

teddy
do you know who poisoned you?

ava
it's going to sound ridiculous
but cordelia and i think it was megan shepherd

teddy
i mean, after what you did to her, i'd think she would have learned to leave you the hell alone

ava
i think that's why i didn't immediately jump to the conclusion that it was her
but she's the only person that really has it out for me
and i'm not getting involved, i told mum and i'm just letting her sort it out with mcgonagall because i don't want to deal with shepherd's bullshit anymore

teddy
look at you, being the bigger person

ava
if she does anything to me ever again i'll do something ten times worse so i wouldn't call me the bigger person here

teddy
still, i'm proud of you

ava
aw
i love you
but seriously we need to talk about that obliviating thing asap

okay one more before bed
