Oh that would hurt. Umbridge was long buried but she... had made a name for herself. And even as a child no one wanted to be compared to her. But the reference was plausible. The obsession with pink. And her cat. And her swift cruel justice toward students. Cari strongly suspected Anastasia Bunbury hated students in a similar way as Umbridge.
But the bickering, however satisfying, was pointless. She had an actual purpose for being there. "Actually there is," she said placing her hands on her hips and staring down at them accusingly. "I need a word with you, about a student that just wandered into my hospital without his right hand."
Did Avalon really just growl at me? Did she really? She's more canine than Alessia Lupa and that's saying something.
Staring levelly at the Healer-wannabe, Annie simply shook her head. "I didn't say you WERE the hag... why, I thought I had been mistaken, but apparently not. I have no idea what Dolores Umbridge looks like, but it's obviously not me unless she happens to be incredibly attractive with perfect hair. You wouldn't happen to know about that, though."
She flicked a few red strands behind her shoulder and then wrapped her arm around Marcus' shapely bicep. Yeah, if Umbridge looked like Annie then Lawson was Mad-Eye Moody. Quote:

"Maybe we can go down after the game? That is of course if you are not busy?" His voice was still casual but there was a little bit of hopeful excitement there as well. Then if they stayed long enough they could extend it to dinner as well.
Marcus smiled a very happy smile that she remembered their times together and he was tempted to nuzzle her hair again but Caroline was glaring at them and there was of course the students. Instead he caught her hair in his fingers and lightly stroked it. "I remember lots of things about those days" he murmured. Both the good and the bad but right now he simply focused on the good.
He groaned again when Caroline fired back at Annie and he wanted to shrink down in his seat. Why could women not get on with each other? You would never see him and Zan acting like this. They had been through much together and yet they still remained friends.
Marcus, sat up a little straighter but still kept his arm around Annie and gazed at Caroline. "And what does that have to do with me Miss Avalon?" He was the DADA professor, not a Healer and although he could mend minor injuries he had no idea what a student's injury had to do with him. "That sounds excellent, Marcus," she answered him with a cheery smile. "Nope, I'm never too busy for," you "chocolate."
It said something that if anyone else had been touching Annie's hair - well, with one other exception - she would have snapped right then and there and started hexing everything in sight. But since it was Axe, Anastasia said nothing at all about the good old days and just hugged Marcus' arm closer to her. Perhaps the tart would take the hint that he didn't want to talk to her and would just LEAVE already.
Or she could earn her keep and deal with the injured student that had popped up. Well well, looked like Ravenclaw was taking a beating. Literally. "Did Hufflepuff win yet?" Bunbunz wondered aloud, blinking at Tino without a bit of compassion on her face.
