Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Quote:

After the game, she'd had to hurry out from the pitch and to the nearest mirror, where she quickly fixed her bird's nest of a hairdo into a quick upsweep. Satisfied that she looked tidy and presentable (there were PHOTOGRAPHERS around, after all!), the redhead finally made her way to the celebration tent.
Vindictus was lucky that she genuinely liked him, or she'd be screeching at him again. Also, there were members of the wizarding public around. She had to behave for them. So once she walked into the tent, and despite the fact that her precious polka dotted pumps were sinking into the soft earth, Annie made her way over to Vindictus' side. Photobombing, anyone?
"Maaaaaaaaax," she purred, popping up in betwixt him and the seventh year Ravenclaws. "What a good game that was, no?" Of course it was. Hufflepuff had just kicked 'Claw butt big time! "I simply adoreee your robes, by the way. Where ever did you get them?"
They had to be designer. The Bunz could spot quality. Max inwardly groaned as Annie appeared at his side. Usually, he was glad to see her but in recent weeks he had purposely been avoiding her for two reasons. First of all, she'd been acting like a nutcase and he'd entertained the idea of having her spend a little R and R time in St. Mungo's wrapped up in a nice white jacket. Then there was that little thing he needed to tell her about but he could never find the right time. "Ah, Headmistress Truebridge. You are a sight for sore eyes," he said, laying on the flattery. "You know that I simply adore Italian designers, especially since Prada started outfitting most of the European league. These are part of the 2080 Spring line that I'm the, erm, spokesperson for."
Grin. Quote:

She nodded stupidly and stepped to the professor's side, lifting up the cupcake like maybe the photographer wanted a picture of that too. It was good she was used to this being photographed thing, because her mouth easily fell into a more pleasant smile than she felt at the moment.
This was odd, Prof V. ODD.
She extended the smile, and a wink, to Lex. "Erm. What newspaper did you say Zed was with, Prof V? The Prophet?" She didn't recognize him. "Zed is with The Q magazine and also freelances with the Prophet," Vindictus answered. Quote:

No. Even worse - he wanted them to be in a picture. "Erm, sure, Professor Vindictus." Max gave a sympathetic frown to Kurumi and Beezus, then put on a false, bright smile as Vindictus' entourage was suddenly peering at the two seventh years. Zed? Who was Zed? Oh. Probably that one. Max gave a short smile to the man holding a camera before flashing his best(and still completely fake) grin at the camera - until he spotted Vivi out of the corner of his eye. Her and her cupcake. He began to chuckle, grinning stupidly in the process.
...And then the Headmistress was there. Like... awkwardly close. Did she have a weird thing for Vindictus? Wasn't she married?
How kind of her to show up. And completely ignore the players. "Cheer up, Max because after this photo, I have a surprise for you," he said and motioned for Zed to get ready to take the picture. "You, too, Vivi." "Now, everyone smile for the birdie!"
Vindictus smiled at the camera and a bright light flashed from the camera.
Now he was seeing white spots.
