“Bless you, Dagomar,” Reagan smiled, “Okay, feel free to drag me to any wandlore convention you want. I’m there.”

I’ll hold you to that one, Raegan.”

ovo-olivia:

Olivia, somehow, seemed to blush even more. “Yes, you’re a very skilled wizard, Dagomar. You know this.” She turned away quickly before she could embarrass herself any more. “Maude is a nice name. It’s just unique. I haven’t heard it before.”

Dagomar grinned at Olivia’s reaction. “I am not the best, Olivia. You know that as well.” She stepped up next to Olivia. “I’m glad you like it... look, she’ll show up. Let’s just go back. She could be anywhere.”

madigan-abbott:

“Oh, a side kick? Wow, Dagomar, i’m honored truly.” She laughed, “But I might have to pass. I like wandlore but I’m not sure if I want to go into wandmaking. Maybe a healer? Or an auror? I just don’t know. There are way too many options.” She shook her head slightly and laughed, “But you don’t care about my future plans. Sorry.”

“You should be.” She joked. She listened to Madigan and rolled her eyes, ignoring her last statement. “Literally everyone and their mother want to be an auror. It seems so boring to me. I would rather die than work for the Ministry. The bureaucracy and profound ignorance is something I want to stay far, far away from.” She told Madigan.

charlottexogoldstein:

Lottie looked at her, a little taken back. “Oh, no. I didn’t think you’d…” She let out a breath and smiled, shaking her head. “You know what, nevermind. We both know I knew you wouldn’t…you know.” She snapped her book shut. “Busy? We could make a Honeydukes run before dinner.”

“Good, i’m glad you think I wouldn’t.” She said, honestly. She jumped slightly when Lottie closed her book and then shrugged. “Alright, I do love sweets.” She admitted.

ovo-olivia:

Olivia blushed slightly, “I’m sure I would be fairly terrified so you would have plenty of chances to impress me with your magic.”

“Ok, but that’s a huge rat. I was justified.” She closed the door and checked the next classroom. “And how did you come up with a name like Maude anyway?”

“Would I, now?" She teased and took a step closer, hoping to play a game of to-flirt-or-not-to-flirt.

“My mother bought her for me and named her. So... Maude it is.” She explained. “It sin’t that bad, it’s original.” She insisted.

madigan-abbott:

She blushed slightly at the praise. “Thank you and you’re right, it’s a shame they don’t teach wandlore here. People don’t really appreciate it the way they used to. But lucky for you, they have a whole major for it at Ashworth if you’re looking to go into it. Which obviously you are.” Madi laughed and then winced, “I actually haven’t decided what I want to do yet. Is that bad?” She laughed.

Dagomar lifted her eyebrow and chuckled. “Of course I am. I will be studying wandlore and try to get an apprenticeship.” She explained. “I am already studying it, from the books I can find in the library and the books my grandfather had. I will be the best.” She said, confidently. “You could study it was well. Once I have my own shop, I’ll need a good side kick.” She joked.

ambivalentambition:

“Ok, sounds easy enough.” She thought about it, “Ok how would you feel if the first game, you sit next to me and explain everything I don’t understand?” Reagan laughed. “I just want to make sure I haven’t missed anything and this way you can make fun of Jackson all you’d like. I”ll do anything if you say yes.”

“I can make fun of Jackson anytime. Although, I do like hanging out with you and making him worry I’m turning you over to my side.” She said with a little laugh. “So yeah, I’ll be there if you want me to be.”

charlottexogoldstein:

Lottie blinked up at the other girl, a little taken back by her response. “Oh,” she said, before giving her a half-smile. “Thanks. I think.”

Dagomar rolled her eyes and sat back. “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything you don’t ask for. Besides, I’m content just being friends so you can relax, Lottie.”

“Yeah okay that makes sense. And the quaffles are the ones that make goals, and the bludgers are just for distraction.” Reagan was starting to make sense of everything now. “So if you catch the snitch, you get 200 points and the game is over, right?”

“150 points but yes, then the game is over and your team has won.” She explained.

Olivia made a face, “Why the hell would you want to go to the forbidden forest? It’s forbidden for a reason!” She pokes her head I to the next empty classroom and pointed to a shadow under the desk. “Is that him?”

Dagomar grinned. “Maybe I’d like to see you terrified and save you with my awesome magic.” Dagomar said with a grin and a wink.

Dagomar looked and laughed. “No, that isn’t her. Maude is a girl’s name, so she’s a her.”She correcte. “Also that is a rat, I’m not sure if I should be angry you think my cat is a rat.” She told her.

madigan-abbott:

Madi laughed at first but then realized the Dagomar was serious. She sat up a little straighter. “Well, there are the well known ones like Dragon Heartstring, and Phoenix Feathers, Unicorn tail hair. Then the less well known like Veela Hair, Threstal hair, Troll Whisker’s, and Coral. And then all of the American ones like Wampus cat hair, Thunderbird tail feathers, Horned Serpent Horn, Jackalope Antler, Kelpie hair. Then the really weird ones like Basilisk horn, bone and shell, which is weird because I would never want to put human bone in a shell.” She took a breathe when she was done. “I think that’s it.

Dagomar felt her jaw slacken and caught herself before she sat there with her mouth open. This girl did know what she was talking about. She wasn’t convinced she was her equal, but maybe... this girl would finally be someone she could talk to about her passion without sounding like a total nerd.

She cleared her throat. “Fine, you’ve read a book or two.” She said, but smiled a little. She didn’t want to let go f her pride completely. “You know enough, Madigan.” She told her. “I-I am quite impressed, considering none of the other students appreciate the art of wandlore at all.” 

She smiled a bit brighter. “Do you want to go study wandlore, or are you more interested in something else.”

madigan-abbott:

Madi laughed, “Yeah, I know who you are, and I’m not disputing you’re knowledge, just you’re insistence that no one else likes Wandlore as much you do. Some might say genuine interest is stronger than family ties.”

Dagomar rolled her eyes. “Prove it then, Abbott. Tell me about all the different cores that have been used over the centuries.” She challenged. She knew them all, she had since she was seven.

piperxsmith:

Piper rolled her eyes playfully, “Wow, you’re such a great friend,” she said. “I’m going to be a healer. Who else is going to save your sorry ass when you get yourself killed, darling?”

Piper leaned back in her seat, “After reading all of the information on plants, I need butterbeer.”

“Right, a healer. I remembered. Kinda.” She teased and shrugged. “I’m not planning on putting myself in danger. I’ll be studying Wandlore, people will want to keep me alive, as I will make the best wands of the century. If they kill me, they’ll have to go back to Ollivander’s wands.” She said with a smirk. 

“Alright then.” She winked at the girl who worked in the pub, and who quite liked her though she herself didn’t really fancy the waitress. “Two butterbeers, please, love.” She said and grinned at the effect she had on her. She loved making girls blush, though she never outright flirted with girls. She didn’t want it to get back to her parents, but no one would notice this, she thought.

rxsejaneweasley:

“Hmm, truth or dare.”

“I am not a coward, but I’d rather start with truth.” She told the other woman.

ambivalentambition:

“You should.” She smiled, “I get the gist of all the positions but why are the balls different? Why do they play with like five?”

“Because a snitch can’t knock someone off their broom, but too violent and heavy to be carried and used to score points. A quaffle is immobile and lighter so it can be used to score points and a snitch is small so it’s hard to catch but small enough to wrap your hand around it when you catch it. That is what I’d guess.” She said, calmly. She honestly only watched quidditch because some of the women playing it sure made her a bit hot under the collar. She didn’t actually care for the sport.

madigan-abbott:

“Merlin, I wish they did, how cool would that be?” Madigan laughed. “Although at this point, I feel like I could past a test over it. I was a little bit of a nerd when I was younger, loved everything magical and was insistent on figuring out how it worked.” Madigan talked, seemingly oblivious of the other’s attitude.

Dagomar raised her eyebrows at Madigan. “You could pass a test over it? Please, don’t make me laugh. You couldn’t possibly know more about it than me.” She said, eyeing the girl up and down. “I’m a Gregorovitch. My family was the equivalent of the Ollivander family in mainland Europe.” She bragged.
