A Bit of a Mess PV K. Riddle & D. Lucey Closed

The Rehearsal Room was such a wonderful place. Children could practice instruments there, but they could also sing. It acted as a sanctuary for a young Slytherin named Koko, and a sanctuary was all she needed at the end of the 2018-2019 school year I'm guessing? Tell me when we're setting this.

The blonde wore black coloured ballet flats, a pink sweatshirt, a bright blue skirt, black leggings with cats embroidered on them, and of course a black-and-pink flower headband. Her long blonde hair was left down. Her golden eyes were narrowed, as if she was suspicious of something or someone. And she carried something in her left hand, a violin case. Inside of it was a polished mahogany violin, with a bow and rosin inside of the case. Koko was planning on playing it once she got into the Rehearsal Room.

To her surprise, however, someone was already in the room when she entered. Wasn't her name something like Min-seo? Hm... Koko wasn't sure. She nodded hello, shut the door, and knelt next to her violin to take the instrument out of its case. The strings were tuned; she had done that before leaving the Slytherin Common Room. Instead of tightening any strings, Koko picked up her bow and began to tighten it until it was ready to play. She raised the violin to playing position and dragged her bow sullenly across the strings. A sad sounding A came out of the instrument, and before she knew what she was doing she began to play a song in a minor key. It made the girl feel much better about the day that had just passed, the day full of rushing to classes and forgetting things.

Outfit of the Day:

Min-seo stopped playing the harp when a girl came in, singing off key. She raised her eyebrows at the sudden arrival came in, interrupting her and Koko's practice of sorts. The girl was very unkempt, which was quite different from the Slytherin girl, her clothes neatly put together in an orderly fashion, and everything was the right size. Her little flats up to her hair, neatly pulled back by a black headband. Her dress was an elegant navy blue. The other girl was messy, swallowed by her robes, and was, well, a fashion disaster, to say the least. Min-seo turned around to face the girl. She felt second hand embarrassment for her, stumbling into a practice like that, not knowing what was happening. She saw her tentatively wave. Min-seo smiled and waved back to her. "How do you do?" she said kindly. The poor girl, she must feel awkward. Yes, her wardrobe did need some work, but she wanted to make sure the girl felt okay, even though she did barge in with horrendous singing and dancing. They seemed to be complete opposites, Two were elegant and one was a mess and stumbled all over the place, looking like that. Not a pretty sight to behold. She reckoned that if she was cleaned up a bit she would look pretty. Not that she wasn't, just all of the mess was covering up her potential.

The dress: (and @Koko Riddle it is set during the end of the school year I think)

Goodness, the girl was quite awkward, none the less, but seemed like she was quite kind. Y'all? She hadn't really heard that before. Min-seo grew up in a posh, elegant family and had never heard the abbreviation before, and was it from America maybe? Min-seo had never been to America before, but apparently it was nice. You see, growing up in a wealthy family of business, meant that Min-seo always had to be elegant, composed, and by all means, dressed as fine as she could. If she wasn't, it was quite weird for her. She would wear like, sweatpants and a tank top for dance or hanging out around the house, for example, but if she was somewhere public, oh you wouldn't see her in that. Also, the curtsy was clumsy, but kind of funnily adorable. She bowed her head with a smile as the girl said she was doing good. "Lovely," she said, tilting her head to the side slightly. She watched the girl (in horror) as she dragged her muddy clothing across the poor floor. Goodness, what a mess. Usually the room was quite tidy, but this, oh goodness, this was the opposite of tidy. She turned back to her harp, plucking the strings lightly, trying to think of what to do.

Koko raised a single eyebrow as the newcomer moved around and spoke, but she said nothing. Y'all? Koko thought about what it would sound like in her clear, high voice. It would sound really awkward, especially with her thick British accent that now sounded fake. Koko set down the instrument and sighed. It wouldn't be in her best interest to play right now. "How did you get mud all over your robes?" she asked softly. "Surely it must annoy you."

The blonde's eyes widened as the Hufflepuff spun around the room all of a sudden. "A-aah!" she exclaimed, grabbing her instrument once again and pressing herself to the wall. The sudden movement had scared her quite a bit. "Doesn't... That make you... Dizzy?" the girl wondered aloud. Koko began loosening her bow and putting her violin away. The blonde-haired Slytherin smiled softly. "Just try not to hurt yourself. It's good to hear that you're doing well." The smile wasn't fake; it was genuine. Still, Koko was unsure about to act around these two. She'd met Min-seo, so she wasn't worried about her, but the other..?

"My name's Koko," said Koko, "What's your name?" She zipped up her violin case and set it against the wall. She then sat down on the bench of the Rehearsal Room's ever-present piano bench. She wouldn't play, but she could at least let her feet relax.
