Kenspeckle: conspicuous; easily seen or recognized… like a peacock… or someone like that.

"Isn't he gorgeous?" Narcissa asked with a smile. She was, of course, referring to the lanky second-year with long blonde locks.

"Something like that," Bellatrix said with intense disinterest.

"Dromeda?" Narcissa's eyes darted to her older sister.

"Huh? Oh. Yeah, he's quite handsome in a… gaunt way," Andromeda said looking up from her letter she was writing. She was trying to think of a way to get it to Ted inconspicuously, as Hufflepuffs and Slytherins had no classes together this year.

"You two can't appreciate beauty," Narcissa scoffed as she ran off to, no doubt, write in her diary about Lucius.


Lucius Malfoy strode into the common room from his dormitory. His hair was slicked back into a ponytail, just the way his prospective girlfriends liked it.

His head was high as he walked over to Travers, noticing some of the girls' eyes falling on him.

"Did you finish your essay?" he asked.

Travers began to talk, but Lucius noticed someone staring at him out of the corner of his eye. He looked over without turning his head. He saw the Black sisters staring at him. They were all gorgeous of course, the Rosier heavy-lidded eyes and the Black high cheekbones coming out in them and they all looked alike. Well the oldest two did. The youngest was different.

Her hair was blonder than his and her eyes just as grey and piercing. But her cheekbones were still high and her eyes heavily-lidded and the combination made him shiver a little. But he didn't let it show.

Lucius was sure Travers was still talking, but he walked off anyway, making sure Narcissa saw him walk up the stairs to his dormitory. Maybe she would follow him up and they could snog.

I mean really, who wouldn't snog him?


Ugh, can't you just smell the Draco-ness... Dracocity... Draconian... anyway can't you see the family resemblance.
