I wrote this last night before I went to a Chapters Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows party. It's kinda based off of a drawing I did as well--and if anyone's curious, I'm up to Chapter 11 in the book already. Haha. Hope you enjoy this chapter.


71. Obsession, or, Getting Ready for Book 7

As O'Chunks walked into the room, itching the red-brown wig he'd shoved on his head, he heard arguments. Loud ones.

"Ha, ha, ha! I can't believe you did that!"
"SHUT UP!"
"You starved yourself to be Voldy? Aww, how stupid is that?"
"SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP!"
"Mimi, stop teasing Dimentio and get ready, 'k?"
"But Nassy!"
"Please!"
"Nassy, I'm a shape shifter remember? Mimimimi!"
"Ugh... um, just don't tease him then. 'K?"
"Okay, Nassy..."

He turned his attention over to Nastasia. She had gotten a long, black, messy wig for the occasion, and she was holding a fine brush in her hand. She had just finished painting the Dark Mark on her forearm. Everyone knew she was going as Bellatrix Lestrange. Count Bleck was standing in front of a mirror in the corner, trying to adjust his monocle perfectly. He'd already gotten into costume an hour before, and his ponytailed wig lay as if it was real hair. Funnily enough, O'Chunks suspected that it might have been his real hair, only dyed... Nobody had ever seen his hair. He was going as Lucius Malfoy.

Last before O'Chunks (Nobody knew who Mimi was going as yet), Dimentio had slathered his face, neck, ears, and shoulders in ugly grey facepaint. He was wearing a ratted black robe and his stomach was churning to no end... because the past few days, he'd been starving himself. Nobody quite knew why--maybe it was because he wanted to make his Voldemort costume more realistic. And O'Chunks... He was going as Rubeus Hagrid. He'd even bought (embarassingly enough) a pink umbrella from one of Howzit's branches to complete the 'look'.

If only Hagrid liked Bellatrix...

He sighed and shaked his head. It was almost time to go to the party.
