 Oct. 20th
Late Evening.
Boredom was an understatement, and something Evangeline was not overly fond of. the common room was silent, which, to a degree, she was pleased about. But it also left very little amusement for her. At least those wretched Westhavens were nowhere to be seen, thank Merlin for the little things.
But the fact remained that she was bored, unable to fall asleep, and really had no...friend like things to speak of save for her little pet project Miriana. Which she certainly didn't feel like playing with right then. It took quite a bit of focus to keep the girl believing that she was simply misunderstood and deep down, Evangeline was kind and almost sweet. Reliving their interactions alone was enough to make the bile rise in her throat, however fruitful an endeavor it was.
With her near empty cup of coffee in hand, she stood and wandered back into the little Common Room kitchenette, pouring the last of the pot into her cup, when she heard the footsteps coming down. Curiously, she glanced over to see Integra coming down. She'd been the object of some fascination with Evangeline, though they had rarely ran into each other. She couldn't quite pin her down, and it only made her all the more curious. "If you can't sleep I can brew another pot and you can join me in self inflicted insomnia." she mused as she turned around. "Theres also the option of..." she pulled open one of the little cupboards, withdrawing a half full bottle of whiskey. |

Integra had never been the early to bed type. As a child, she had created a habit of reading before bed and the habit stuck. Tonight she was devouring the pages of a muggle book about the science of memories and was very near falling asleep. Though close it may have been, she couldn't quite attain that sweet rest that lurked behind her eyelids. Closing her eyes meant greeting the faces of her nightmares. Blinking, Integra sat up and pushed her glasses from her nose to the top of her head and rubbed her eyes. Maybe just a glass of water, and then she'd try to get some sleep. Focus was going to be a key factor in her lessons from now on, and Integra was working very hard to stay on track.
As she slipped down into the common room, however, that focus was met with a very persuasive challenge. Whiskey and an undeniably wicked acquaintance. Evangeline had sputtered some nonsense about sleeping or not and sharing a drink. Though they'd yet to bond as even so much as classmates, Integra thought she had a fairly good idea of what kind of character the girl was. Certainly, she could have done the same for herself and Integra wouldn't have blamed her. With her book still tucked under one arm, the girl sighed and grabbed the whiskey bottle, padding across the floor toward the girl. "Whisky is better for sleeping. What are you doing up anyway?"
From her back pocket, she pulled a pack of cigarettes and slid one out, propping it between her lips and proceeded to search her other pockets for a lighter before giving up and igniting the object of her filthy habit on a candle fixed to the wall. "What fucking time is it?" Damn, had she gone on a reading binge for that long? This school was turning her into a nerd. Ugh.

Oct. 20th
Late Evening.
Evangeline sipped her coffee as the girl made off with the whiskey, truth be told she should have considered having some herself, but she was a serious lightweight when it came to liquor. Anything but more coffee would have been a better choice really.
"Sleep and I aren't on the best of terms, unfortunately." she shrugged. It wasn't insomnia, but it wasn't not either.
She leaned against the little counter and peeked around to the clock near the fireplace, raising a brow in mild surprise. "Nearly midnight, apparently." she hadn't realized it was already creeping that late. If she had, she wouldn't have started on the last of the coffee, but the damage was done regardless. She was awake, atleast for now. Hopping up onto the counter she looked over, trying to figure the girl out. "Why have we never talked before, Integra?" |

Whiskey was her best friend. It had been since her fourth year at Hogwarts. She hardly remembered the party but it may as well have been the kick off to becoming a woman. She was hardly 15, and that night she made a name for herself. From there on out, whiskey and promiscuity had become the crutch she leaned on through her tumultuous adolescence.
A puff of smoke slithered from his lips and curled around her head in a devilish halo. Letting the book on muggle mind science fall to the seat of a chair, Integra leaned on the arm and flicked open the cap of her liquid serenity. Midnight was it? Reading really had taken over her evening. She took a gulp of the amber liquor and licked her lips, savoring the flavor.
”Why have we never talked before, Integra?” inquired her unexpected company.
Trying not to smirk, The slender girl glanced back to Evangeline. ”Do you want the truth or should I make something up?” Kissing her lips to the bottle opening she took another swig and mulled over how best to answer her.
”See I think you want to hear that you're just too fearsome and intimidating and that I've avoided you out of pure terror. And contrarily, I'd love to hear the same about myself, but lets not kid ourselves” Her smile was coy and chilling as she tilted her head toward her shoulder. ”Logic would suggest that, however similar our paths are, they've just never crossed.” Integra wrinkled her nose and shook her head. ”To be honest, I think the answer is more simply we have the same interests, but different motivations. I also think your inquiry is more or less rhetorical and likely intended to be more of an invitation into what ever little social games you like to play.” She kept her smile as once again she drank from the bottle, so comfortable in her grasp, and returned to drawing the nicotine out of her smoke.
