enemy territory :asher:

Fiona looked about, a bit curious as to how she had wound up there, as she had been ambling about the fourth floor, but could quickly decipher that she had wandered to the dungeons. Slytherin territory. Perhaps it had been that odd staircase she had taken. Fiona kept made a mental note of it, and then shoved it to the back of her head to recall later when she was running about dodging professors or prefects. Shoving her hands into the pockets of her robes, Fiona looked about, nostrils filled with the scent of damp stone and mould.

From stories through her father, Gryffindors and Slytherins automatically hated one another without so much as exchanging a word. There was house rivalry now, sure, but Fiona figured it was nowhere near what it had been when her father was in school. Nevertheless, Fiona took out her wand from behind her ear, and twirled it slowly between her fingers. When she heard someone call her name, Fiona looked over her shoulder at...

It was Asher. He was extremely confused as to why his little sister was downstairs, with her being a Gryffindor. "Fiona, what are you doing down here?" he asked, but he couldn't hide the tired smile on his face. Between his siblings, Fiona was the one who was most like him. Unfortunately, it was darling Fiona that was unaware of his werewolf status. Surely she had noticed strange behavior as summer ended, and he was glad she wasn't in Slytherin. Fiona would have witnessed him sneaking out every full moon had that been the case.

"I took an odd staircase from the fourth floor and found myself over there," Fiona responded, using her thumb to point out what had used to be a landing. It was now one of the many doors at Hogwarts that wasn't really a door at all, just a bit of wall pretending. She stuck her wand behind her ear, he usual keeping place for it. She looked her brother up and down, he seemed paler than normal, and thinner, as if he had lost weight. "Are you okay? You look like you've been ill," Fiona commented.
