"Well, correct me if I’m wrong – I’ve to admit I’m not used to that stuff – but if I remember right there was this Jesus-guy who already did it…"
"Wow, never looked at it zat way," Coco mumbled more to herself. She wasn't religious, at all, nor her parents had been, but considering the son of god, or even god himself, had been one of them put a whole different complexion on the matter. Maybe even she would have read that bible book. On the other hand... Nah, probably not.
"Okay, I think better no more Bible quotes. But what about getting to know each other a bit better?"
Please, no more question and answer games, unless it was a real game like this 'truth or dare' thing she had always seen in movies but never got to play herself. Sure, it was a muggle game, but before she'd reached the age of eleven, Coco hadn't even known anything about witches and wizards. Sometimes she just felt like she had missed a lot of the world she originally had belonged to.
"I mean just talking about hobbies or something like that. It‘s not that I want us to become best friends..."
"Oh c'mon, chill." Coco put Emily's nervousness off before taking a first long sip of her hot chocolate. Oh god, this was like walking on air. So freaking good. For a moment, she even seemed to forget what they were talking about.
"Hobbies, huh? Let's see. When I'm not attending a black mass..." She stopped in the middle of this joky yet prosaic spoken reply. "You wanna know Cami's hobbies, not mine," Coco then guessed and made it sound like a fact, and also like it wasn't bothering her at all that people were more interested in her best friend than herself. Most of the time, that was even the truth.

"Wow, never looked at it zat way," Coco mumbled to herself. Sirius also didn’t. It was just a strange joke. He didn’t intend to say that Jesus could have been a wizzard. He had never really read the bible and also was no believer.
"Oh c'mon, chill." 'Yes, chill,' he said to himself in his mind. So he tried. And he was amused when he saw Coco’s reaction to her sip of the hot chocolate. She seemed to love chocolate a lot. Suddenly Sirius was glad that he choose chocolate instead of butterbeer even if he wasn’t sure why he felt that way. But it gave him a warm inner feeling to see that she enjoyed it.
"Hobbies, huh? Let's see. When I'm not attending a black mass..." Hah, she was so funny – of course, in her very own way but Sirius liked that way of manner. But before he could give a laugh to her comment she suddenly stopped and became serious. "You wanna know Cami's hobbies, not mine," It was obvious that she was annoyed by this thought even if she tried to hide it. "Huh?" First Sirius felt only surprised that she had said something like that. But then he realized that she maybe often had to make conversations like this in the past. Boys that tried to get along with her just because they hoped to find out more about her beautiful bestie. The saddest thing about this thought was that he at first also tried to act that way. But at the moment he didn’t thought about Cami. He was true to Coco. He just wanted to get to know her a bit better. "Hey, wait! Stop! That wasn‘t my intention." He hoped that he didn’t look like someone who was caught red-handed. "I just want to get to know you a bit better. I mean – we're going to be partners in crime," he went on and gave her a wink. "I started to think that we’re not so different from each other. I don’t know many girls like you, Coco." He stopped for a moment and looked at her directly until he realized that she could think he would try to flirt. So he took his cup and a great sip of hot chocolate to hide his embarrassment. "So,… what about… music?"

"Huh?"
Coco shrugged her shoulders before taking another sip of her chocolate, immediately bringing back that childish smile of hers whenever she didn't have to focus on humans but food. Okay, granted, there was this one human that could bring this smile upon her features as well - her bestie Cami.
"Hey, wait! Stop! That wasn‘t my intention.""I just want to get to know you a bit better. I mean – we're going to be partners in crime,"
God, this girl really had to chill. For once, Coco couldn't help but slightly smile at Emily's reactions that were, all around the time, so far from being chilled.
"I started to think that we’re not so different from each other. I don’t know many girls like you, Coco."
And there it was again. Girls like you. She made it sound like Coco was an open book or that Emily, at least, would have gotten a glimpse at its index already, while Coco thought of herself not even fitting into any bookcase at all. She got though, what Emily meant, and that was alright. Besides, she didn't like to argue, especially not with someone she had barely talked to. That would be just too exhausting and also unnecessary.
And then, all of a sudden, Emily was acting kind of strange again. Coco smiled again slightly. Emily the strange really would make a good nickname for her.
"So,… what about… music?"
Coco was itching to give another fake answer or something similar, but she didn't want to push it more by giving the girl a hard time. Music, however, was a good conversation topic or could be with the right person. "Depends on mood, but you won't exactly find me danzing to a Lady Gaga song." She took another sip of her chocolate. "Too mainstream, if you know what I mean. I kinda like her crazy style though."

Sirius thought that they made a bad start, on the train and even now. But already during their conversation at Zonkos he got the impression that they probably would get along together very well and that they could have much fun. So he was very relieved that Coco left it at that for the moment and decided to talk to him seriously instead.
"Depends on mood, but you won't exactly find me danzing to a Lady Gaga song." "Too mainstream, if you know what I mean. I kinda like her crazy style though." Suddenly there was a big smile on Sirius' face. "Hah, I know exactly what you mean! I also don’t like Mainstream." He also took a sip of his chocolate – and yes, it was really very good. "Gosh, never tasted this before – I mean not here at the Broomsticks Inn." Suddenly he recognized that it felt like he might have a milksop or something like that and took his sleeve to wipe it off. He also couldn’t stop himself from giving her a childish grin because of that. "I mostly love loud guitars, bass and drums and so on.", he continued talking. "To be honest when I was a young child, I mean just about five or six years, I always wanted to play Quidditch like my father and also establish a band. Well, at least I learned how to ride my broom like a pro."

"Hah, I know exactly what you mean! I also don’t like Mainstream."
Coco's smile widened a bit, this time not even because she thought her conversational partner had a funny behavior but because she was starting to think the same thing - that they might have much more in common than it seemed. There wasn't much that made Coco socialize with strangers, but a mutual taste in music probably was one of these few things out there.
"Gosh, never tasted this before – I mean not here at the Broomsticks Inn."
"I know, right?" Coco replied with another childish grin as she wrapped both her hands around her cup to warm them. Not because they were actually cold, but because it was giving her a cozy feeling. "So, back to music. What'z your kind of non-mainstream?"
"I mostly love loud guitars, bass and drums and so on." Coco gave an agreeing nod to that. "To be honest when I was a young child, I mean just about five or six years, I always wanted to play Quidditch like my father and also establish a band. Well, at least I learned how to ride my broom like a pro."
"Don't know why everyone's so obsessed with zis Quidditch zing, but - dude! Go for ze band zing!" In her words, there was this undertone of something that might get called euphoria, yet still in the Coco kind of way. And yet, once she had warmed up to somebody - which simply hadn't happened a lot in the past - she could show it indeed. "If I'd had ze time, I might have started a thing like zat myself. Who knows?" She shrugged and took another sip of her chocolate.

"Don't know why everyone's so obsessed with zis Quidditch zing, but - dude! Go for ze band zing!" That was a good question indeed. But Sirius for himself was raised with the knowledge of Quidditch because of his father. And like many children he adored his Dad and wished to be like him one day. So one can say it ran in the blood.
"If I'd had ze time, I might have started a thing like zat myself. Who knows?" Sirius also wrapped his hands around his cup and looked at her with a literally questionmark on his face. "What do ya' mean with 'If I’d had the time'? You’re not playing Quidditch, right? And – let me guess – no other sports, for example Muggle sports… So,why don’t ya' have the time for something like that?" He stopped for a moment to take a great sip with relish. "Wow, I’ve to admit that I don’t eat that much chocolate or candies at all, but this is… GREAT!" This time it was his part to act childish. "Hey, we have a school band – well, actually all members went to Hogwarts and if I got it right they were getting to know each other here at school. You already saw them. Do ya' remember the announcement on All Hallows Eve?

"What do ya' mean with 'If I’d had the time'? You’re not playing Quidditch, right? And – let me guess – no other sports, for example Muggle sports… So,why don’t ya' have the time for something like that?"Suddenly there was a serious expression on her face, one that was different from all others before. One, that could be seen there, at least, once a year. That certain day wasn't here yet, but Emily's question made her remember. While people might make conclusions about her free time and how she spent it, she actually barely had any free time at all, not since she was living all by herself, left with duties that probably none of her schoolmates had to take care of. And that already ever since she was ten years old. Coco was glad when Emily's eyes went elsewhere. She followed suit the girl's action of taking another sip of chocolate, then realizing that the latest had already been the last. Not letting that circumstance show on her features, Coco replaced the empty mug in front of her. "Wow, I’ve to admit that I don’t eat that much chocolate or candies at all, but this is… GREAT!"
She nodded in agreement, this time though a little bit more reserved. All of a sudden, she wanted to be alone. Still, she was glad when Emily changed the topic before Coco even could have given an answer to her question. Maybe she had meant it as a rhetorical question anyway. Fine by her. She tried to pull herself together. "Hey, we have a school band – well, actually all members went to Hogwarts and if I got it right they were getting to know each other here at school. You already saw them. Do ya' remember the announcement on All Hallows Eve?""Hm, I zhink I was too absorbed with all zhe candy around back zhen." she chuckled slightly. "Food and music, both zhings Beauxbatons doesn't stand a chance against your school. Probably cuz most of our students are okay wiz gnawing on a stalk of celery and listening to harp music wizhout any black metal sound in the background."

Sirius hadn’t noticed Coco’s change because he was too busy with his hot chocolate. And he often was in the habit of talking and talking without giving his dialog partner a chance to answer or interrupt. But he never meant no harm. It was just a bad habit.
"Hm, I zhink I was too absorbed with all zhe candy around back zhen." "Food and music, both zhings Beauxbatons doesn't stand a chance against your school. Probably cuz most of our students are okay wiz gnawing on a stalk of celery and listening to harp music wizhout any black metal sound in the background." Sirius also had to chuckle. "Ya' know what?! I’ve a picture in my mind now. I see all this beauties walking on a catwalk while someone is playing a harp… - and then suddely another one appears out of thin air and started to play Death Metal on an electric guitar… Those faces! Gosh, this would be a sight for sore eyes!" Now he really had to laugh for a moment. "What do ya' think, hm? Should we take that as an special aim on our trick-list?" He wanted to take another sip of his drink but had to notice that his mug was already empty, too. "Well, I didn’t mean it… I think," he added to his previous joke. "Because… I mean - can you play a guitar or something like that?"

"Ya' know what?! I’ve a picture in my mind now. I see all this beauties walking on a catwalk while someone is playing a harp… - and then suddenly another one appears out of thin air and started to play Death Metal on an electric guitar… Those faces! Gosh, this would be a sight for sore eyes!"
Coco's lips raised into a slight chuckle, once again, yet starting to evaporate when Emily continued rambling on and on.
"What do ya' think, hm? Should we take that as a special aim on our trick-list?""Well, I didn’t mean it… I think,""Because… I mean - can you play a guitar or something like that?"
It was one thing to attend ramblings with Cami, who she knew for ages and, therefore, that even being a blast at times, but quite another thing to do it with someone she had only just met. Since Coco was no one to hide any kind of displeasure, she eventually chimed in. "Whoa, Gimme a break." she said with one hand raised in front of her like she literally had to stop all the talking. It wasn't even the amount of words but rather the way this girl made everything sound like they were just about to become best friends, from now on meeting each other twice a week to share chitchat, that gave Coco a hard time.
She took an audible breath before making her position clear to someone who was obviously quick to bond with another, pretty much unlike herself. "Not gonna lie, I'm not zhe kind of person who'd be like yeeees~ let's play in a band together even zhough we barely know each other!" Her raised hand accompanied the ridiculousness of it. "Besides... casting bands have no future, anyways." Her last words had actually supposed to mitigate her preceding refusal, yet probably to no avail. It was not like Coco was purposefully messing conversations up or something, but sometimes extroverts simply overexerted her. And to all those people who thought she didn't give a shit about putting somebody's nose out of joint, here's the breaking news - she hated it. Not because she would care too much about how the other person absorbed it but because it was one of the most exhausting things to her. That was why, this time, it was she who jumped to another topic before Emily could have reacted to her former words.
"So, how do we proceed wiz our plan to light a fire under somebody's ass?" she asked with a smirk, silently hoping that her conversation partner was no drama queen who would take things personally.

Okay, he went too far again. And Coco also misunderstood his enthusiasm and thought he was in earnest. "Not gonna lie, I'm not zhe kind of person who'd be like yeeees~ let's play in a band together even zhough we barely know each other!" But Sirius was too astonished to respond a word. And her raised hand also revealed her point of view. "Besides... casting bands have no future, anyways." Well, she really took his former words a bit too serious. He already conceded that it wouldn't be more than just a thought if Coco couldn’t play an instrument.
And so this time it was her who changed the topic from one moment to the other. "So, how do we proceed wiz our plan to light a fire under somebody's ass?" "Okay, back to our real business," he grinnend while leaning a bit back on his chair. "But just one thing: Cool down, yah? I wasn’t that serious." Then he gave a little cough and took up the new issue. "So, what do ya' think about choosing the 'lucky one' according to the random principle?," he asked with a bride grin on his face and fold his hands now in front of his chest just like a villain who was thinking about his new evil master plan. "Let me explain: I’ll order two new drinks and we'll observe the door for circa five or ten minutes. The next one who’ll enters the Inn will be our victim."

"Okay, back to our real business,""But just one thing: Cool down, yah? I wasn’t that serious."
Wow, she didn't know if she'd ever gotten told to cool down herself. Maybe she was right, but still, Coco felt like, if she wouldn't have said something, Emily soon would have invited her to her next pajama party. There might be a part of Coco that felt a little bad for her clarification, yet, in the end, it would save her from more stress.
"So, what do ya' think about choosing the 'lucky one' according to the random principle?,"
"Talk." she replied with an expression more on ease now as well, while she rested her chin on both her hands. At least, Emily didn't seem to be oversensitive, for which she was thankful after their little awkward moment.
"Let me explain: I’ll order two new drinks and we'll observe the door for circa five or ten minutes. The next one who’ll enters the Inn will be our victim."
"Sounds like a plan, Stan." She liked to answer with phrases like that. It was simply funnier than to just agree in a way everyone did. "And I'm..." Coco stopped. No, she wouldn't say it. "I'm taking what is next on the drink menu." Once Emily had turned her face around to head over the bar, Coco let her eyes roll due to her own behavior. Why was it so hard for her to say sorry? Ah well, anyways, Emily was cool - she didn't need an apology from her, which was good, because then Coco didn't have to force herself to give one.

"Sounds like a plan, Stan." Cool answer. Not just yes or okay. "And I'm..." Sirius looked at her inquiring. What else did she want to say? "I'm taking what is next on the drink menu." Ah, okay. "As you wish, Trish," he gave back with a grin on his face. He couldn’t resist to answer in a similar way than she had done before.
And then he stood up, went to the bar and ordered two new hot chocolates. Of course, he could have ordered anything else but he remembered Coco’s childish reaction at her first chocolate so he decided to give her a treat.
When he came back he offered one of the cups to her. He also gave her a broad grin. "Sorry, not sorry – it’s a onesided menu but I think you’ll gonna like it." Then he sat down again and started to observe the entrance door. "So, what kind of trick do ya' wanna play on our 'lucky one'?"

"As you wish, Trish,"
Coco chuckled inwardly. Although she had never heard of that phrase - and when it came to those, she knew practically all of them - she added an imaginative point to Emily's score. She was cool, and that in a way without trying to be. The best way, as Coco thought. Anything else was just fake.
While she was waiting for Emily to come back with their new drinks, she tried not to think of the bad start they had before. Maybe she should, at least, pay for herself the next time they will be sharing something like a drink or food. Wow, did she just contemplated to repeat this? That was new. So far, the only person who she met more than once, or especially who wanted to meet her more than once, had been Cami. Well, granted, Coco didn't exactly make an effort to change that.
At first, Coco was a bit irritated by the grin on Emily's face once she was back with their drinks, but when she looked inside her cup, a grin was spreading around her face as well.
"Sorry, not sorry – it’s a onesided menu but I think you’ll gonna like it." Coco shrugged slightly, yet her face gave away how fine she was with that. "So, what kind of trick do ya' wanna play on our 'lucky one'?"
"Didn't we buy one of zhese vials with laxative pixie dust in it? I know, it'z classic, yet never fail." Her hot-chocolate-grin changed into her, still childish yet a lot more mischievous one. "Or we could just make zat a random pick as well. So, what do we have?" Coco asked curiously while sipping at her chocolate and at the same time pointing at the bag in which Emily had let their shopping articles disappear.

"Didn't we buy one of zhese vials with laxative pixie dust in it? I know, it'z classic, yet never fail." "Or we could just make zat a random pick as well. So, what do we have?" "Hah, you little devil, Coco! But yes, classic but never fail. And although I like the idea of picking an item randomly I’m in for the classic." He put on an evil grin and rubbed his hands like a villain who can't wait to see how his plans start rolling. He took the laxative-vial out of their shopping bag and showed it to Coco. But he did it carefully so that nobody else would notice it - at least if no one didn't pay them too much attention. "Time to show our inner demons. Ready for a prank?" It was, of course, just an rethorical question. "Okay, let’s head over to the counter and distract the waiters so that we can put our 'panacea' into some cups. Then we’ll just have to lean back and watch the show. By the way – are you good in distracting people?

"Hah, you little devil, Coco! But yes, classic but never fail. And although I like the idea of picking an item randomly I’m in for the classic."
That was the kind of compliment she could accept and felt comfortable with. While wordlessly watching Emily producing one of the vials from her bag, Coco took another sip of her chocolate.
"Time to show our inner demons. Ready for a prank?""Okay, let’s head over to the counter and distract the waiters so that we can put our 'panacea' into some cups. Then we’ll just have to lean back and watch the show. By the way – are you good in distracting people?"
"Fuck no," she replied truthfully. "Whenever I can, I keep out of people's way." Sometimes it wasn't clear if Coco was joking or not, yet whenever something she said wasn't a joke, it had to be a fact, for she was seeing no sense in lying except for doing so to be sarcastic. "But I'm still down for zhe idea of waiting who walks through zhe door next. Maybe we can sneak closer once zhe person sat down somewhere."

"Fuck no," "Whenever I can, I keep out of people's way." Sirius came to the conclusion that she didn’t lie and said the truth. Although it might be difficult to understand that sarcastic girl sometimes. "But I'm still down for zhe idea of waiting who walks through zhe door next. Maybe we can sneak closer once zhe person sat down somewhere." "Hah, okay. In that case I also think we should go back to option one. I’m not good in distracting, too, ya‘ know?! I always had been the one who sneaks around and does the stealthy things when me and my friends had played a trick on someone in the past." Sirius had to laugh for a second. "If we want to become regular trickster partners we might need a third person for the distractings I guess. But hey, just sayin'. Don’t worry. No pressure. My mouth is often faster than my brains, hah! So, sorry not sorry." He grabbed his cup and drank a toast to Coco. "Cheers!"
Now they have to wait until someone entered the Pub…

*** Morgana enters from outside ***
The last place Morgana wanted to be was in the bustling Inn, full of loud noises and folks drinking themselves merry. Yet, if it meant submerging herself into a room full of people to become invisible, that's what Morgana wanted in this very moment. She knew this really wasn't Sherlock's scene anyways so as she found herself a seat in the back corner of the Inn she was able to relax. Silently nodding her head to herself, Morgana internally gave herself a pep talk and that she simply had to wait her time out in this spot until the train came back... ...Suddenly, Morgana gasped as she shot upright as a fellow from the table beside her got too excited in his state and threw his drink too hard, landing the liquid all over Morgana's lap. Others surrounding her in the Inn made noises of surprise before pointing and laughing at the fiasco. Her jaw hung open as she was in complete disbelief at what was happening to her. A wave of emotions overcame her, and unsure of what to say or do, Morgana was rendered speechless as she ran away from the laughing spectators and into the girl's lavatory. Could this day get any worse?

Ellie and Dray had been sitting for a while already, chatting and laughing over their favorite drink. Spending happy times together with her bestie and her girlfriend, both united in the same person, was making everything she'd been worrying about before seem like peanuts. Ellie had so much more than she could have asked for, and she was thankful for every single day of her life so far. Why would the news of having a twin sister make her feel anything but even more thankful? Sure, they'd had an odd start, but what was starting perfectly anyway? Right now, however, Ellie just wanted to enjoy great times without any worrying at all.
The two girls had been so deep into their own little world that none of them took notice of the other girl, Ellie's twin sister, that had entered the Inn, same as they didn't notice how she was having anything but great times. Still though, there had been moments of Ellie's worries coming back to her, but she had them shrugged off as something like an echo of a hard day.
"Gotta clear the way for another round," Ellie eventually stated with a grin of amusement and a gesture towards her bladder. She gave Dray a kiss before leaving their table and heading in the direction of the girl's lavatory.
Ellie was glad that there were two cubicles as she'd been sitting it out for longer than she thought. Just as she had closed the door behind, she suddenly felt sick again. Not exactly sick but rather... sad and... out of place. She took some deep breathes, not wasting a thought about what the girl in the neighbor cubicle must be thinking she was doing. This was just too sudden and overwhelming for her to simply shrug it off again. Actually, Ellie was even close to crying it out instead. What was this feeling? And more importantly, why was she feeling it?

Morgana's dark hair fell over her knees as her entire face was buried into the palms of her hands. She wasn't crying or wailing in her sorrows, she was just simply sad. Morgana wanted nothing more than to back out of the Tournament and blend into the walls like she did previously years before all eyes were suddenly on her. Yet, she was afraid of what people would think? Would they call her a coward? At this point, she just wanted all of her problems to disappear. She wanted to disappear.
Suddenly, Morgana felt a strange twitch in her spirit and was comforted by affirming thoughts that told her otherwise. You would be missed if you ran away...who cares what people would think? Eternal glory isn't worth risking not only your life but also your sanity as a whole...Sherlock values your heart and so what if he doesn't fancy you in the way you fancy him?...After years of having no family, you have a sister out there and her existence is a miracle.... You are loved.... You are worthy. Morgana's head lifted along with her heart that rose within her chest. Her confused gaze panned around the enclosed cubicle that she occupied. She didn't know where these voices in her head were coming from and how they were there. They just were there, rescuing her from her doubts and worries.
Peering down at the stain that began to dry on Morgana's lap, she chuckled lightly to herself as if what had just happened was no big deal. Picking herself up from the seat, she brought herself to her feet and figured that a running tap and some paper towel could fix this stain in no time. She pushed the cubicle door open, just about the same time as the girl next to her and froze as her body emerged from the stall door. Ellie,... Morgana called out to her internally, yet her mouth would not open as she was paralyzed by the surprise of coming face to face with her twin again so soon.

Coco hadn't been paying attention to all the things Emily said last, not only because she was observing the door but also because her conversation partner was very right about one thing Coco actually had been paying attention to. She was talking a lot. However, when she raised her cup for a toast, Coco did the same and let hers clink to it.
It took only a couple of minutes until someone was entering through the door of the Inn, but, instead of a devilish grin like only a moment before, an expression of rather seriousness flashed over Coco's features. But then it changed to something more bored looking as soon as she turned towards her trickster partner.
"No," was all she said, yet with determination, before Emily could have said anything herself. Coco hated the way some people were pointing and laughing at the girl, just because a little fiasco with a drink had happened that seemed to not even been her fault. This girl's day surely had been fucked up enough already. "We wait for zhe next one."

Finally someone entered the Inn. It was the girl which had been nearly invisible since the day she was chosen by the goblet to be part of the Tournament. Morgana was her name if he remembered right. Sirius watched her and also her mishap. "No," Coco's voice said more than any other words could have done. For a moment Sirius still thought about playing a trick on Morgana. She was the one who didn't want to be part of the TriWizard Tournament and he felt cheated because of that. He had wished so hard to be chosen. "We wait for zhe next one." Yet again Cocos tone tolerated no dissent. "Okay," was all he gave back while he fought against his inner demon which tried to tell him that Morgana had stolen his chance for fame.

While this feeling like a deep fall, as if straight towards the abyss, was lasting on her, Ellie tried to stabilize at least her body by leaning her head close to the wall next to her. Soon she had to realize that this made her state even worse when suddenly discouraging thoughts started to form like the nearing sight of a waterfall, unstoppable and angst-inducing. It would pull her deeper and deeper. Dray states to love you now, but what will be in a couple of months, in half a year, another year?...As a participant in the tournament, she will be celebrated and loved by people worthier than you...She won't need you anymore...Just like your friends who actually are her friends...They will leave you back behind as well...deep down, you know that they'd never really cared about you anyway...And your father...How ashamed he will be, hearing that you've fallen in love with a girl?...He will toss you out of your home...same as your mother had when you'd been only a baby...She didn't want you...And while you're trying so hard to be liked by your twin sister, she just hates you as well...She's only jealous about the things you seem to have...The truth of the matter is...You have nothing...You are alone...You are loved by nobody... You aren't worthy. Ellie felt so disconnected that she wasn't even considering there was the chance of an external source that sent these thoughts. Been raised by maybe not a muggle but, at least, a father who was had a thing for muggle technology and made little use of his magic arts, Ellie was used to not think of something magically first. So she rather saw herself having kind of a panic attack howsoever that must feel. From what she had heard, this felt the closest at least.
As Ellie felt like this sudden feeling had worsened ever since she had entered the cubicle, she tried to get her act together and force herself out of it. She took some more deep breaths, fortunately helping to slightly relieve some of the darkness in her head, before she reached out to the door handle to get out. Ellie pushed the door open, just about the same time as another girl next to her. She froze in utter shock as if over-challenged by seeing anyone at all. And this was not only anyone. As if somebody would be calling out her name, she felt a bit of her inner spark coming back to her, though.
"Hey..." Ellie greeted her twin sister with a shaky voice while she felt stupid about her reaction at the same time. Since when was she acting so unsure? Still, she felt like recovering bit by bit.

"Okay,"
Even though Coco was primarily focused back on her cup of chocolate, silently enjoying her tastegasm, she couldn't help noticing the disgruntled expression on her trickster partner's features. Or was she just upset? Coco was quite bad at guessing somebody's frame of mind. God, sometimes she couldn't even make sense of her own.
She knew she would hate herself for this, but the sudden silence between them was even worse. "So - uh, you wanna talk about it? Totally cool if we don't, though." Coco turned her head only half in Emily's direction, hoping that soon somebody would enter through that damn door.

"So - uh, you wanna talk about it? Totally cool if we don't, though." Sirius looked at her surprised by her words. "What?!," was all he first answered because her acting caused amazement. "Um, no, I think not. I'm fine. I also don't like talking too much about personal feelings and thoughts." He took a sip of his drink and hoped she didn't think that he wouldn't like her. Because he did. But he yet didn't really know her so he wasn't sure if he want to talk about such personal matters. "Don't get me wrong. You're okay, you're cool. And there's nothing to bother about. I'm also totally cool to stay here in silence and wait for another 'victim'." Suddenly he had to grin. "And watching your tastegasm - or whatever you'd call it."

"What?!,"Shit, is she making a biggie of this?, Coco thought in a state of slight shock, not having believed that the moment she would hate herself for this would come so fast. But then it seemed Emily was going to reply to her question anyway. Yay? "Um, no, I think not. I'm fine. I also don't like talking too much about personal feelings and thoughts.""Cool, cool," Coco gave back rather casually, so she wondered a bit about Emily's next words. "Don't get me wrong. You're okay, you're cool. And there's nothing to bother about. I'm also totally cool to stay here in silence and wait for another 'victim'."
Suddenly she found this awkward, even more than before, so she was glad when the girl went on in a more jokingly manner.
"And watching your tastegasm - or whatever you'd call it." She grinned. "Yeah, who needs a guy to experienze pleasure, right? Oh - or a girl." Coco hadn't added that like something that would be uncommon or even odd, but instead just like something she had forgotten for a moment. Then she addressed herself to her cup again.

"Yeah, who needs a guy to experienze pleasure, right? Oh - or a girl." Okay, she was really cool! Sirius liked her - of course just in that 'we maybe could be good friends-way' of liking. 'You're right' was what he wanted to answer but he faltered for a moment. He knew that she was just joking but somehow he felt a little pissed off anyway. And that lead him to forget his disguise for a moment. "Do ya' really think all guys are that bad? I'm referring to some girls I've known who were much more bad as most of my naughtiest buddies!" Yes, that was true. Of course, he had to admit that he also knew some boys who were real turds toward girls. "And hey - what about me? Do ya' think I'm only thinking about to score with a girl when I'm talking to one?!" At the very moment he had spoke out his words he suddenly realized that he totally forgot to pretend to be a girl. He didn't say any other word. His face expressions were frozen and showed an 'Oh Shit!'-moment.

"Hey..."
There it was again. Morgana didn't really know this girl too well, but she hated the fact that she was dismal in her presence. The only thing was, Morgana felt nothing but rays of sunshine in moments right before running into this girl...then suddenly, something clicked in her Ravenclaw brain. As if a puzzle piece found a place to slide into to complete the picture. Peering over her shoulder left then right, Morgana found a lonely bar stood propped up against the wall of the bathroom. Perhaps there used to be someone tending the bathrooms at night when the Inn attracted more of the rowdy crowd. She didn't think of any excuses for the bar stool in the bathroom any further, just getting this girl seated and feeling well again.
"Maybe you should have a seat," Morgana suggested with a cautious tone to her voice as she guided the miserable looking blonde to the stool and helped her sit down on the seat. Standing in front of the girl who was almost doubled over in sadness, Morgana crossed her arms as a thought swept her mind. There's no way, Morgana thought to herself. An idea popped in like a lightbulb, but she thought it was rather random and a little bizarre. She almost shook the idea off entirely, until she looked at Ellie again and the internal pain she was experiencing. Something Morgana, herself, might be causing. But what if? "Oh, what the Hell," Morgana muttered to herself before addressing Ellie with a weird grin, "I might be a little crazy, but there's something I want to try...," Morgana raised a single, quivering hand and moving it slowly through the air her hand finally made contact with Ellie's shoulder. Closing her eyes, Morgana focused on her energy and envisioned it as a glowing ball of light that started at her heart and moved up into her shoulder, down her arm bones and through her palms into the girl in front of her. Morgana became completely wrapped up in her focus as the light energy within her traveled into Ellie. The radiant happiness she felt slowly started to fade from her body, yet, Morgana was okay with that. It didn't belong to her, anyways. As Morgana began to feel more like herself once more, her hand finally tore away from Ellie and her eyes reopened once more to bring the blonde doppelganger into view.
"Better?" Morgana asked, bearing a half hearted smile.

"Do ya' really think all guys are that bad? I'm referring to some girls I've known who were much more bad as most of my naughtiest buddies!"
Suddenly Coco stopped in her motions, staring at Emily in quite a confusion. She had no idea what to say or how to react, not even was she aware of whether this was a joke or not. And even if it was, then it was one that Coco didn't appreciate, for she hated to be the center of attention which loud voices, unfortunately, tended to cause. Could somebody please gift her with the ability to sink into the ground?
"And hey - what about me? Do ya' think I'm only thinking about to score with a girl when I'm talking to one?!"
"You're not serious, are you?" Coco finally chimed in, still quite puzzled, although she felt like she already knew the answer to that. And she didn't mean the fact that Emily obviously wasn't who she pretended to be, for what reason soever. "Oh wow, okay, you are. Man, cool down. What's the problem? Did some fly piss into your drink?" Her voice wasn't loud but the annoyance about their conversation once again having changed into an introvert nightmare was very present in her voice indeed. "Dude, I don't mind if you're a girl or a boy or neither of that, if zat's what this iz about. What I'm trying to do here iz just conversing because - as you might 'ave noticed - I suck at zese kinda things. So, would you pleaze just appreciate my try of being funny and stop ze bitching? Merci beaucoup."
Just as she wanted to dedicate herself back to her cup of chocolate, she found it empty. Shit. Welcome awkwardness. Then, as if to save her from her inner panic of not knowing what else to do with her attention, there came an opportunity up to draw it completely away from herself. "And what kind of shit iz going on over zere, by the way?" Coco had started this as merely a distraction tactic but then realized that there was actually some shit going on. "Dude... iz that a freaking blizzard outside?" she added in disbelief, her gaze still directed in the direction of, by now, everyone's attention.

"You're not serious, are you?" Sirius couldn't talk, he just starred at Coco, his face a mess of many various emotions. "Oh wow, okay, you are. Man, cool down. What's the problem? Did some fly piss into your drink?" He still didn't know what to say or even how to react. He just sat in front of her like he was frozen. "Dude, I don't mind if you're a girl or a boy or neither of that, if zat's what this iz about. What I'm trying to do here iz just conversing because - as you might 'ave noticed - I suck at zese kinda things. So, would you pleaze just appreciate my try of being funny and stop ze bitching? Merci beaucoup." Okay, she was right. She wasn't good at having conversation - but to be fair he wasn't an easy partner for conversations since he started to live at Hogwarts and trying to keep his true identity as a secret.
While he still wasn't able to say any word Coco's attention fortunately went over to something else. "And what kind of shit iz going on over zere, by the way?" First it only seemed like a tactic to change the topic but then she really sounded surprised. "Dude... iz that a freaking blizzard outside?" Sirius now also took a look through the window to the outside. It WAS a freaking blizzard or at least something similar to it. "Looks like you're right," he finally found his voice back. "Should we stay inside - or are you brave enough to go out and take a closer look?!" Finally he even found back to his true self and his spirit of adventure. He had already stood up and gave her a provoking glimpse.

"Looks like you're right,""Should we stay inside - or are you brave enough to go out and take a closer look?!"
Usually, Coco was no one to meet a crowd, voluntarily at that, but this time, her curiosity about what was going on outside was stronger than the usual urge to just escape from it. Or maybe her urge to escape from this situation with Emily, or whoever she or he now really was, was actually what made her escape as a matter of fact, yet instead of from the crowd right into it. So Coco didn't need to be told twice before giving a reply to her/his former question.
"Yeah, let's 'ave a look," she said with a shrug that was to play it cool, although her natural coolness had actually left her already sometime during this odd conversation with Emily. Not waiting for her/him to lead the way, Coco was the one heading towards the door first, trying to fight the upcoming stress as they wriggled themselves through the crowd of students that had started to gather inside to seek shelter from the snowstorm outside.
