"Meh, you should stop trying to imitate me.. "Eleanor pointed out as she observed her sister, then waved her right hand dismissively in the air . "You just don't do it well."
Eva was definitely not happy with Ellie's interruption.. ah well, she didn't quite care actually, she wasn't much pleased either.
Her both eyebrows popped up in an amused way as she replied with a brief laugh. "You know, Slytherin common room is just right there.." the brunette said, while unfolding her arms to point at the Slytherin's common room entrance.

Clearly, Eva had stopped using her intelligence since the last time Ellie had seen her.
Oh well, she was a Hufflepuff anyway, that helped a lot.

Her brown eyes moved to the Ravenclaw girl, that was standing next to her sister.
Yes Ellie had noticed the badge in the girl's clothes..she always did. "Well Hello there, Daphne.." she gave the girl a polite smile and then her eyes moved to the girl's hand, she was holding a wand just like her sister. A slight smirk appeared on the brunette's lips while she folded her arms across her chest again, her brown eyes moving from the Ravenclaw girl to her sister. " Don't you guys have anything better to do than paint walls ? Ridiculous.. "Purple doesn't look good in here, just put it grey again, okay ?"she spoke, trying not to sound, too rude.

Honestly, couldn't they just go play like little girls and color some corridor near the Gyrffindor common room or some place else ?

Daphne stood firm and turned to Eva. "I am not most mad!" she said with mock indignation. She was happy to hear that she would have some help in this endeavor. She examined her handiwork, the discrepancy between the colours popped out at her the more she looked at it. The pastel purple did seem a bit out of place in the underground corridor, as Eva suggested. "Perhaps a nice rich, cranberry hue," she noted, picking another five stones and tapping them. Their grey stone flushed into a bright, strong red. She stepped back and observed the stones, trying to decide which would be a better tone for the hall.

She jumped back as she heard footsteps. They were caught! Daphne had images of detention and cruel punishment in her head. Holding her breath, she hastily conjured up some possible explanations. She saw a girl walking towards her and Eva. The closer the other girl got, the more Daphne noticed a resemblance between her and Eva. Her jaw dropped slightly as she started connecting the dots. "The twin..." she breathed, eyes wide. "We weren't doing anything," she responded firmly. Denial seemed the way to go in right now. She stepped back and braced herself for a family tiff.

Daphne hesitantly smiled. "Pleasure," she said, not sure what to make of the current situation.

Daphne continued to stand, face expressionless. "I told you, Ellie, we aren't doing anything. Well that's a lie," she elaborated, her excuses flying off of her tongue. "We were doing something, trying to get rid of these splotches." She pointed her wand at the colour clusters she had made earlier. "We were doing a service to the school." Ellie was pushy, a Slytherin who knew what she wanted. Her eyes darted to what was revealed to be the Slytherin common room. She didn't realise this was the location, just her luck that she chose this spot for her little project.

"It's not worth to talk to her, Daphne." Eva warned while she kept facing the Slytherin girl that happened to be her sister.
"Oh, right. That's here you spend all your free time. With people like you." Eva replied She knew she wasn't being fair and a felt a small piece of guilt when she thought about Alyss. Not all the Slytherins were the same.

"Right now? You are the one that seems that needs some... exciment in your life... sis." there was plently of sarcasm underneath this sentence, that was everything less innocent. "Give me a break, Ellie. Get a life that doesn't include bothering me, okay?"
She turned her backs at Ellie and admired the red colour of the walls. Seemed to be better.
The sweet innocent Hufflepuff was gone.

Oh man, another one of those reactions… only that the Ravenclaw exaggerated a little bit, her expression almost looked like she was looking at something that you don’t see everyday .
Daphne’s eyes even widened and everything..
“Sure we are twins, but we are not that alike.” Eleanor spoke, while she rolled her brown eyes .
Ellie’s right eyebrow rose very slightly in surprise as she observed the girl stepping back, not moving her eyes away from Ellie as she answered her firmly.
[i] Is my hair having a bad day ? Do I have something written on my face ? Does… does she think I’m scary !?”[/b]
That was an odd option.. thinking that someone found her scary.. but it felt slightly good to think something had these thoughts about her actually.

“Okay, I know we just met.. but I’m actually not that stupid.” The brunette spoke, a more visible smirk on her lips, as she spoke a tinny little bit more unkindly. She couldn’t be rude at the girl.. after all, the Ravenclaw hadn’t been rude to her..
Ellie was no fool.. She wasn’t the smartest person around the school either.. but she was definitely not stupid. “ You should know that, since you are a Ravenclaw. No offense, I have nothing against Ravenclaw. ” Weren’t Ravenclaws supposed to be like.. smart ?
Well, she didn't have anything against them.. not anymore.
Her best friend was a Ravenclaw.. and thinking about Willow.. she missed her.
The brunette’s eyebrows popped up once again as she heard the girl’s excuse. After a second staring at her, Ellie laughed amusingly at her words. Ah Merlin, that was indeed funny. “I’m sorry, did you said you were doing a service to the school ?” she manage to ask between the laughs.

That Daphne girl spoke firmly, she sure knew how to keep her position, Ellie actually thought for a second she could be telling the true.
But she sure had to practice her lying skills.. and not take steps back.

The brunette turned to the Hufflepuff girl.
“Well excuse me Eva, I’m not being rude to you.” The brunette said. “So do not be rude to me.” Her eyes narrowed when Eva spoke again. “People like me ? I don’t even want to know what you mean by that. Honestly Eva.”
People like her.. humpf.
She had awesome friends .. what did Eva knew about them anyways..

“Oh, but I do have excitement in my life.. it just doesn’t involve painting walls.” Eleanor replied with a smirk on her lips. “Well, I’m sorry if I’m bothering you, but you see, my common room is just right there and you are painting the walls of the dungeons corridor !” Eva’s intelligence was gone, permanently.. so it seemed. “ Oh wait !” Ellie spoke, once her sister turned around to admire the red walls. " You need attention.. is that it? You wont get attention by giving some color to the school's walls.."

It would be great if her sister got detention, a huge ,and a tinny little bit painful , one.

Daphne stood awkwardly in the middle of this row. Eva, who had seemed so sweet before, was now baring her teeth in the fight. "Eva, it's ok," she stepped closer to her friend, putting her hand on her shoulder. "Lets just all take a breath, calm down, alright?" She hoped to diffuse the situation, perhaps walking away would be a good idea.

Daphne's normally pleasant face contorted into one of aggravation. This Ellie girl thought she was so clever, so sly. "I can clearly see you and your sister aren't alike," she said coldly, not liking the other's tone. She stepped back up to the others. Daphne could tell that by being Eva's mate, that she was now Ellie's enemy. "Why don't you just go back to your common room?" she suggested in her own firm tone. She didn't want a fight, she just wanted this to stop. Her lie had been very flimsy, but she didn't appreciate the Slytherin girl's response. "We'll put the colours back and we'll just all move along. No need for this," she said, trying to be logical. The twins would most certainly not back down, but hopefully a third party could calm things down.

The Ravenclaw was being nice.. she put her hand on Eva’s shoulder, told them to calm down..
Now that was odd.. Eleanor was expecting something like Daphne removing her smile off her face and start defending Eva .
Not that Ellie wanted that to happen.. no,no. Ellie had just reached the conclusion that they could both have friends in common but that they should never ever involve them into a fight that was between the two of them and no one else. And that also applied to friends they didn’t have in common.
And the Ravenclaw, Daphne, wasn’t Ellie’s friend..they just met after all, but she was Eva’s friend and she was not involved in that argument.

And Ooohh, it seemed that Ellie was wrong. Daphne was now indirectly defending Eva.

Ah Merlin, it took me such a long while to start sympathizing with Ravenclaws again.. It would be way easier if she was just a Hufflepuff. I could just dislike her and the end.
The brunette gave the girl a smile, ignoring her cold tone of voice.
Oh well, the Ravenclaw comment had been harsh.. a little. She said she had nothing against the Ravenclaw house, which was true, in the end.
“Yes, I think I better do that.. I don’t want to watch my sister’s I-need-attention crisis.” She spoke, moving her brown eyes to her sister. Ellie was the one who spent the summer without talking to her friends and without doing almost everything she liked.. not Eva. Eva was the one who had sleepovers all the time..
Ah well, maybe Ellie should have one of these crisis someday..….. not. “I just would like to see the grey back first.. if that is fine for you both. ” the brunette shrugged.

“Daphne, this is just a simple chat when you compare it to other arguments me and my sister have.” Well.. it was. “Just put the colors up, okay ? But.. Oh ! If you want to paint a corridor.. you can paint the Seventh floor one.. ”
Hehehe, near Cale New-something’s common room.

She would have loved to stay there and argument back, take her wand out and pointed it at her sister’s mouth while she mumbled “Langlock”.. like she had done on their first year..
But Ellie was feeling tired.. and quite lazy. Since the Quidditch match it seemed that teachers had asked for more and more homework, and homework meant points and she needed points. She hadn’t been able to have a proper night of sleep for a few days.
Course she could have pulled that tiredness feeling aside, she could have done it quite easily, she had done it before, but she just didn’t feel like doing it.

Daphne stood firm in her spot. She agreed that she needed to put the colours back, but she didn't want to do it because this girl demanded she do it. All that Eva told her about sisters and twins began to make a whole lot more sense. She couldn't imagine having an enemy, let alone one who lived in the same home.

She walked over to the ten stones she coloured in and tapped them back to their normal colour. "Happy?" she said, sneering, placing her wand in her pocket. "You should try adding some colour in here, could cheer you up," she added bitterly as the girl walked into her common room. She turned to Eva, feeling horribly for what just transpired. "I'm so sorry, this was a rotten idea," she said, gathering her things. It would be better if they got out of this place as quickly as possible. Of all the deserted halls in Hogwarts, she had to pick the one that led to the Slytherin Common room. "Lets get out of here, go someplace else... that's if you still want to be around me," she said sadly. This whole thing was all her fault, her idea to come down here, her idea to change the colours. Eva was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Amanda headed down into the dungeon corridor after she owled Nico asking him to meet her down here. She leaned against the wall, putting her hands in her pockets and waited.

Nicholai headed down to the dungeon the moment he got an owl from Amanda, wondering if everything was alright.

"Princess? You wanted to speak to me?" he asked as he saw her leaning against the wall.... which was purple?

He ignored the colour for now and focussed his attention on the second year in front of him.

"Oh um Nico.. I just wanted to tell you that I considered your offer to live with you for a bit and I accept it." Amanda said, glancing at the walls around her briefly before turning her attention back to Nico.

Nicholai nodded, "Thats fine, Princess. Camira will be staying too." he paused, "I'll come find you on the train, but if you see Camira or my sister, Celandine stick with them since its going to be a fair effort for me to round all you girls up, no?" Nico grinned at her.

"In the meantime if you need anything, just let me know; and I hope you are studying hard for the finals."

"Alright, haha.. that would be a fair effort actually." Amanda said then laughed and also wondered why the walls were purple.

"I'm of course studying hard for the finals, I want to do the best I possibly can and also earn points for Slytherin along the way to make sure we end up with the House Cup" She said and smiled.

"Thats what I like to hear." Nicholai smiled brightly, "I'll talk to you later, Princess." Nicholai looked around curiously at the walls before turning on one heel and heading back up to the school.

Amanda smirked slightly, despite that she wasn't actually going to admit it but she loved it when Nico called her Princess, it was just so cute. She headed down the corridor towards the common room.

E didn't even bother to reply Ellie.
ELLIE BLUEBELL, YOU ARE SOOOOO DONE WITH ME., These were Eva's very agressive thoughts. Her bad mood agravated when she saw someone else.
Isn't it Nico... Tht was somebody the fourteen year old brunnette had to talk with.
The girl made some weird fast gestures to Daphne trying to explain it wasn't Daphne's fault.
"You should try to live with Ellie. Soon you realize you can only argue or reply with enough sarcasm."
