Let's Cut Some Hair
Mei stumbled out of her common room. She had just woken up and had just thrown on some jeans, a baggy t-shirt with a turtleneck underneath and some combat boots. Her hair was a mess and she brushed it as she walked down the corridors. She shoved it into her bag and looked around.
There were a few students in this corridor. She knew some of them. Mostly just bad experiences. Not for her though. They had been victims of her never ending wrath. She had gotten a letter from her father during her first year. It was letting her know that it had been a year since her mom had passed. As soon as she read that she ripped it up and burned it. After that she had become cold. To everyone including people in her own house.
She had started dressing different to. Stopped wearing skirts and dresses and if she did wear a skirt it was plaid. She hated wearing girly things now. Stopped wearing girly colors. Someone had come up to her and started calling her 'emo girl'. That ended with her walking away and the other student with a bloody lip. There was a difference between emo and grunge.
She slipped on the few chain necklaces she had brought with her and the tungsten rings. She had a few other rings to. One was a snake, her favorite animal. The other was octopus tentacles and the third was a falcon claw.
She kept walking noticing a boy in the hallway. A hufflepuff. Her favorite prey. He had long hair. She pulled it hard as she walked past him with a smirk before turning around. "I've never seen a guy with hair this long before~ Now that I have..." she pulled a pair of scissors out of her bag and looked at the boy with a smile. "Maybe it's time for a haircut?"

Let's Cut Some Hair
It was an average day at Hogwarts for me and I had just finished eating my breakfast so I started heading for my first class today and about a minute later, someone pulled hard on my hair as they walked past me before turning around.“I’ve never seen a guy with hair this long before. Now that I have…” she didn’t finish the sentence but she did pull out a pair of scissors from her bag before asking ”Maybe it’s time for a haircut?”. Well, that was weird a weird interaction, but me being me, I had thought of a paragraph worth of words to tell the girl in front of me, and me being me, I just let it all out. ”Wait a moment, before you give me that haircut, do you not go to lunch, breakfast, and dinner with everyone else? Because if that’s the case then it would surely explain why you haven’t seen a guy with long hair before because I’ve seen at least three.” As I was talking, I casually circled her whilst looking her in the eyes and trying my best to keep my usual cheerful face on, hoping that I’d be on the other side of her by the time I did finish talking. I mean, I could just go to the other side and run, but I decided to save that for when she actually attacked, if she did attack which at the moment, that seemed very likely.
”Or, perhaps what you actually meant to say was ‘I’ve never seen a guy I can bully with hair this long before.’. I mean, obviously you’re not gonna bully someone twice your size so you have no choice but to go on the defenseless little rodent am I right? Also, could you just skin me instead of shearing me? If you think that’s a weird request then that’s because it is but when you think about it, you can only skin an animal once but you can shear a sheep many times and you’re really not someone I’d rather give my wool to so please just do it and be done with it. Oh, and one final thing, did you know I’m dumb? Because I’ve just spent a minute babbling to you when I could’ve just walked around gone to my class, but hey, we’re all dumb sometimes.” By the time I finished talking, I was on the side I wanted to be in case the girl advanced, so with my speech finished, I waited for her response.

Let's Cut Some Hair
The boy circled around her droning on and on with a bunch of nonsense words that she didn't care about. Was this first year seriously lecturing her? He kept eye contact trying to keep this happy go lucky expression on his face. She rolled her eyes at his words. She wasn't listening to anything he was saying. If anything it was going to put her back to sleep. At least that's something she would enjoy.
The boy continued to drone on and Mei opened and closed the scissors slightly. She was starting to get irritated. She was so close to just walking away. She could spend her time bullying someone else rather than wasting her time by this boy who just lectured her about sheep and skinning things. What the hell is he talking about? She pretended to start dozing off until she heard him say something she didn't like.
"A litt- A little rodent!? You did not just call me that! She snapped her head up and glared at the boy. Who do you think you are you dumb fuck?! She grabbed the boy by his hair and attempted to cut his hair but her fingers cramped up and she dropped the scissors. She shoved the boy backwards instead. She was frustrated. Who did he think he was? He may be bigger than her but she was not weak.Word count: 230

“A litt- A little rodent!? You did not just call me that! Who do you think you are you dumb fuck?!” The girl then grabbed the me by my hair and attempted to cut some of it off but she dropped her scissors before she had the chance to do so so she shoved me back instead “Um, I think I’m just a first year boy attending a school that teaches magic and if you weren’t dozing off while I was giving my hell of a long speech, then you’d know that I said…” I then deepened my tone before continuing: “since you’re can’t bully someone twice your size, you’d have no choice but to go down on the defenseless little rodent,” and then I switched my voice back to normal before continuing once again: “aka me.”
“I mean, I really don’t blame you for falling asleep while I was talking, I probably would’ve done the same thing if I was a bully and then some kid I was picking on started going on a long-ass rant. Well, if we have no further business with each other then I’m afraid I truly must leave because it’s better to come to class late then never, eh? Doesn’t change the fact that I’ll get in trouble for being late but that’s besides the point, the point being that I’ll get in more trouble if I come later so I best get going right about now.” And with those words, I turned around and started to leave, hoping the girl wouldn't follow me and waste my time any more then she already has, but then again, I was the one who didn't ignore her and gave her a good talking to so it was more my fault then it was hers.
