HP 1x1

I’ll contact you tomorrow, gotta go

Alright, I’m here. To make it easier, I’ll switch Sabrina (my OC) into Gryffindor too.

Sabrina Williams - 5th year Gryffindor
Spunky, hot-headed, impulsive, and a Chaser in Quidditch

Sure, sorry for the short-ish post. 



Sabrina was sitting in the common room, rather bored. She had at least the winter to rest from classes. Sitting in a worn armchair by the fire, she embraced the feeling of the warm spot that was usually taken up. Thankfully most students were away for the holidays and she didn’t have to put up with the hustle and bustle for a bit.

Sabrina was obviously an adventurous girl, but everyone needs a break and today was hers. Hers alone. Blowing a lock of wispy auburn hair out of her face, she sighed a bit. Things were getting a tad bit boring after sitting around for more than a few hours. Sabrina carefully rose from the armchair and decided to head out of the common room for a bit of walking around, perhaps in the courtyard. She was rather tired and therefore she didn’t pay much attention to detail.

What she didn’t notice while she walked out of the common room was that someone was entering, and that the someone was about to bump into her.

“Ow!” She exclaimed slightly angrily. Soon she realized that it was her fault and put on a defiant expression as she faced the stranger. “Well, well. Most Gryffindors go home with their parents for the holidays, I’m usually one of the very few that don’t. Seems that I’ve found another.”

“Slinky?” Sabrina let out a little laugh.

“And who is that then?” She tilted her head with mild curiosity, looking straight at the boy. “Actually, never mind. Sabrina, 5th year. I’m guessing that you already know me, but no matter.”

Her eyes darted around the room for a moment, hearing a scuffling. “How did that rat get in here? It obviously doesn’t know the password. You’d be kidding me if you told me that was- Slinky...” Sabrina’s eyes narrowed as she suddenly pushed past him and dove underneath a bed, where a tail was about to disappear. “Got that little vermin! Here. I don’t understand how you didn’t notice it following you all the way here.” Her smile was bold as she grasped the wriggling rat in her two hands. She moved it over to the boy with a slight shrug.

“Take him. I don’t want that thing. Anyways, at least the common room is quiet for the holidays.” She added abruptly as always. What an annoying person. Who lets a pet rat loose everywhere? She stifled another bout of impromptu laughed at the rat’s face and managed to keep quiet.

“So. I guess I’ll be off, unless you know how to play wizard chess.” A gleam of challenge settled in her eyes but it slowly faded as she was about to brush past him once more.

Sabrina saw the hesitance and slight surprise in Jamison’s eyes but shrugged. Who’s fault was it that he didn’t like her personality? Not hers, obviously.

“Game on.” She simply replied, eyes gleaming. She just needed somebody to keep her busy for a while, maybe not a friend but just a human being that did something. Obviously she wasn’t saying Merlin was boring... he was her lucky charm for absolutely everything.

“C’mere, Merlin.” Sabrina’s voice was quiet as she called the name of the famous man in a different tone from her speaking voice, slightly low and ominous.

A small, raspy meow greeted her as a grizzled black cat stalked out from underneath another couch. He quietly leaped onto her lap after she took out an equally old and slightly worn chessboard. “I don’t hate animals. He was going to eat your rat anyways...” She smirked before settling down into a comfy armchair by a table.

“Dark or light? Doesn’t matter to me.” Sabrina gestured to the pieces on the chessboard, still letting her eyes sparkle slightly. It was nearly obvious what he would choose. He wouldn’t dream of choosing her lucky colour anyways...

“You best hide your rat from Merlin. He’s a master at the magic art of catching rats.” She added, abruptly as always. Jamison could be skilled at wizard chess... but Sabrina would definitely do better.
