I'm Just Dyeing to Know
For the duration of her life, Ciel's mother had made one thing clear. She absolutely could not dye her hair. Her mother had loved the shade of blonde of Ciel's hair and had completely forbidden her from changing it. No matter how badly she wanted to dye her hair other colors, or even to cut it short!
Hogwarts brought new things, new changes. Learning magic and branching out into other hobbies and interests, making new friends that were all interesting and different, new things were meant to happen. And as Ciel stood in the girl's lavatory, the new thing she wanted to happen was dyeing her hair pink.
Luckily it was the weekend, and most students were studying or outside hanging out, so she pretty much had the bathroom to herself. While she would've considered the Hufflepuff bathroom instead, there were a few girls who were still in the dormitories, Ciel just didn't want to risk it.
Pulling up her leather satchel, she sat it on one of the sinks as she dug through the bag. Just before she had left for the train back to Hogwarts after winter break, she had begged Beaux to take her to the store a few kilometers away and let her buy some boxed hair dye. Beaux was worried at first, but Ciel had promised to take care of his chores during the summer- and who was he to deny?
She read through the instructions quickly, skimming the words. Prepare and then mix... do this and that- ugh, this seemed like a very lengthy process. Ciel opened the box and peered inside, a horrible smell erupting into the bathroom. Yuck!

Who knew that when I had dyed my hair a month earlier than I should have, I wouldn't get in trouble? Though, actually, that may have been because they weren't in the mind to punish me. My mother did look tired, after all...I was heading to the lavatory - wow, funny how only a few months ago I could never find my way around this place - and once I got there, I checked inside to see if anyone was in there. The first thing I noticed when I peeked into the lavatory was the smell. Because oh my god, it was disgusting. I let out a screech like a dying cat and stumbled back into the corridor. Curious to know where the rotten stench was coming from, I crept back inside, pulling my shirt over my nose. I noticed a girl in the lavatory with me, she was about my age, with long blonde hair. And of course, she was about 5 or 6 inches taller than me, though she still looked my age. She looked vaguely familiar, like months ago familiar... She was holding up what looked like boxed hair dye. I carefully walked towards her. "Erm..." said, uncertain. "Are you trying to dye your hair? I can help you if you want..." I said in a muffled voice through my shirt. "I'm Aurora, by the way, but you can call me Ro. Um...I think I've seen you around before?" I asked, holding out my hand to shake.

Bailey was dressed quite casually, as it was a sunday. It was just around lunch time, about noon, and bailey headed down to the lavatory to wash up before the meal. She walked down the corridors, lamenting the fact that there was still a small chill in the air. Bailey was dressed in a loose white blouse, a flowy one, and some tan shorts. She had a light cream cardigan on, and her jewelry was very simple and aesthetic. She had on a few rings, with flowers and such on them, a necklace that she had bought for herself that had a mountain on it, and earrings with flowers on them. Her hair she had pulled back in a simple quarter up do, and she had some tan sandals on her feet and a black belt as well. On her shoulder she had a bag which contained the necessities - her water bottle, a notebook for random notes, an extra hair tie, a book to read - today it was Pride and Prejudices by Jane Asuten. She also had a few miscellaneous things like half a bag of peppermint toads and a spare quill and her wand.
bailey arrived at the lavatory, and she entered to a horrid stench that bailey recognized. Bailey spotted two first years, hufflepuffs if she remembered correctly from seeing them around.
Bailey approached them, and said "hello - do you need some help?
Bailey held up the tip of her hair, which was dyed blue as she said "i can helo, i have some experience dying hair!"
Dropping her hold on her hair, she stuck her hand out for the girls to shake if they want, saying "My name is Bailey - Bailey Glade. I think i've met you before, Aurora, but i don't recall your name...." The last part of her sentence was directed at Ciel, who bailey could not remember meeting before.

Just as her nose was beginning to adjust to the smell of the dye, Ciel heard another girl... screeching? She whipped her head around, worried that something had happened to a fellow student, but instead she was met with the sight of another Hufflepuff girl, who was covering her nose with the shirt she was wearing.
"Yeah, I think I've seen you before-" Ciel racked her brain, trying to recall when she had seen Aurora. "Hufflepuff common room? I think. I'm Ciel, a future famous cowboy!" She sat down the box of dye she was holding and shook Ro's hand, briefly covering a giggle from the shirt over the other girl's nose. "And yes, I could use some help dyeing my hair, please. I've never done it before."
Before she began a spiel about her mother not letting her dye her hair, another girl walked into the bathroom. As Ciel took in the girl's looks, trying to discern whether or not she recognized her, Ciel realized the similarities between them. Generally same height, and both with blonde hair, woah, freaky!
"I'm the future number one famous cowboy- Ciel! It's nice to meet you." Ciel shook Bailey's hand, before turning back to the boxed dye she had left on the counter. She had just opened the box and had yet to mix anything or even put on gloves. Peering inside the box, she spotted some gloves, applicator, and the actual color itself.
Ciel quickly addressed the other two girls. "So... what do I do with this stuff?"
