Deity yawned, with her hand covering her mouth, as she sat flicking bits of parchment into the bin. She was waiting for her sister to return to her office. Deity sat in her sister's office with her legs upon her sister's desk, grinning as she marvelled on her success of appearing here undetected. She glanced at the clock, that slowly ticked beside her feet and wondered where on Earth her sister was held up this time, "Oh for Merlin's Sake-" she started to mutter impatiently. She abruptly stopped as she heard the staircase behind the floor spin in smooth circles and waited for the entrance of her new guest.
Lizzie sighed, it was bad enough having to deal with destructed children but also having to clean up a Death Eater's mess? She sighed as she went round on the moving staircase. She quickly pushed open her door, but halted as her eyes landed on a being. Her wand was already out, before she had time to recongize the person.
"Yare." Deity muttered Japanese, a word that was used for 'Oh dear' or 'Oh My'. "Yare, yare, yare." she repeated, "going to attack me, sister?" she asked her sister rather patronisingly.
"Don't 'Yare' me!" Lizzie spat angrily at her sister. She was rather busy and found it an absurd time for her sister to visit her. Lizzie arched an eyebrow as she eyed her sister, full of curiosity. She closed the door behind her with her foot, and didn't remove her gaze from her sister. But she lowered her wand slightly, as they both knew that wasn't going to attack Deity. "Muffliato" she muttered, so that they wouldn't be overheard. In her experience, all of their conversations weren't good if they were overheard. "What do you want?" she said as her voice returned to the calm state that it had been in before.
Deity laughed upon her sister's question, "What do I want?" she repeated the question, as though she didn't hear it, "Why well, of course, I wanted to see you." she said. Her laugh was a cold and bitter one that erupted the silence of the room and stirred awake all of the portraits that had been asleep until now. Even though the portraits appear to be snoozing, they actually listen to everything that was said. Dumbledore, who was slumbering in a golden frame over the desk, with his half-moon spectacles perched upon his crooked nose, was now awake. He was looking peaceful and untroubled, while the others seemed rather irritated or just bored.

Lizzie narrowed her eyes at her twin sister, as she gave the portrait of Dumbledore a quick glance, "Why?" she asked curiously, as she turned back to her sister, hoping that her sister wasn't in some form of trouble. Even though they seemed like natural enemies, she really did care about her sister's well being. As long as her sister wasn't a Death Eater, she'd always look after and protect her.
Deity grinned, "Come on, Sis. Can't I even visit you anymore?" she asked cooly. Deity knew that her intentions weren't exactly that and that this was an obvious lie but she also knew that her sister wouldn't be too bothered about the details and that she'd be more filled with worry and anxiety, instead of irriation or anger.
Lizzie didn't bother to reply this rhetorically question. Instead she glanced around the room, to notice the minor changes her sister had already made to it. She noted that their was a pile of crumbled parchment pieces by the bin and wondered what on earth her sister had ripped up. She was about to ask her sister when she suddenly noticed something, "How did you get in here?" she suddenly asked, her voice full of curiosity, as her glance shot back to her sister.
Her laugh echoed the silenced room once more and all the portraits glanced at her in shock and curiosity, yet Dumbledore remained untroubled, "Is there any way for me not to get through defences set by you, dear old sister?" Deity said tauntingly to her sister, as her sister eyed her curiously.

Lizzie knew that Deity somehow managed to get into all of her defenses, she sighed and took a seat in the opposite chair. Deity was seated in her chair so she took the other one and sighed, she had been hoping that it was impossible for anyone to get into Hogwarts yet her sister somehow managed to. This meant that others could too. "What do you really want?" she questioned her sister, meaningfully.
Deity grinned, "Well... I hear that you need help, Headmistress Aphrodite." she merely replied to her as she continued to flick bits of parchment into the bin. She stopped ripping up pieces of parchment when her sister shot her a sharp glare and retrieved a file from her pocket. She began filing her nails as she watched her sister in thought.
"You mean to say that you want to work here?" Lizzie asked in disbelief. It wasn't like her sister to settle down and stop running, that too when her sister would be ranked lower then herself. Deity wasn't one for settling with one job, as she was always doing something that landed her in trouble and needed a quick escape but Lizzie dismissed it. If she wants a job then I'll give her one. Lizzie merely told herself in her protection tone.
Deity rolled her eyes playfully at her sister, "Do I have to spell everything for you?" she asked slightly annoyed that her sister hadn't jumped to the job offer already, something which she expected from her. To which her sister replied, "Would be nice, Leila.". Deity sighed and rolled her eyes as she continued to file her nails.

"So... What do you want to do?" she asked her sister, her voice still full of curiosity and shock as she fiddled with the end of her wand. She sighed as her sister merely shrugged and continued with the nail filing, "You don't really want a job, do you?" she asked with a hint of irritation showing in her voice.
Deity laughed, "Come on, lighten up. It's called a JOKE." she said emphasising it to her sister, as though Lizzie was 5.
She picked up a piece of parchment, but quickly returned it to the table as she received a sharp look from her sister, "Well what do you have left? Potions is taken!" she snarled, rather annoyed at the fact that her sister had offered it to someone else when she was pretty good at Potions herself.

Evan sighed as he walked towards Lizzie's office. He was here to apologize for his actions earlier when she and Jack had been talking. It wasn't a true apology, but something he had to do if he wanted to stay on her good side. He went past through the gargoyle and reached her door. And Evan knocked. Because that's how you make your entrance in RPs. You knock.

Lizzie rolled her eyes at her sister, and turned around upon hearing a knock. "Come in." she said to the door, she was turned on her seat as her sister was sitting in her original seat.
"AND someone took head of Slytherin too. Plus he took Defence against Dark Arts, so what am I going to do?" she asked rather irritated, she was too busy talking so she didn't hear the knock on the door.

Evan stepped in to hear this and was about to mouth something angrily when he saw it was Deity talking. A true smile broke out on his face as he spoke, "I thought you wouldn't mind since it was me and not some random bloke tha took it." It was relieving for him to see someone he truly liked at Hogwarts.

Deity glanced up at the door, gaped at him for a moment, glanced down at the sheet again to see if his name had been on it. She kept glancing up and down in shock, "Evan-" she smiled at him, "No, I didn't think you'd teach here." she said grinning, with a slight hint of curiousity in her voice as she knew Evan not to be one for teaching. But then again, she wasn't one for settling for a job, and she was doing just that.
Lizzie frowned slightly at their reunion, hoping that Deity hadn't come as she clearly say the trueness in Evan around Deity but not around her. She didn't bother to say anything though and remained in silence during the little moment of theirs.
Deity jumped up off her seat, well technically Lizzie's seat, and embraced Evan. Slowly letting go, she indicated to an empty chair and returned to her own seat behind the desk. "Well I take back what I said then." she said refering to her snarling voice previously.

"I'm relieved," replied Evan as he walked over to the chair and sat down comfortably. He noticed Lizzie's silence and smirked a bit at it; finding the headmistress feeling awkward amused him. Whenever he was with some of his real friends, his old ways returned. He'd have to watch that while Lizzie was in their company.
"Since I took the positions that seem to interest you, what are you going to do?" Evan questioned, raising his eyebrows curiously. "I never really thought teaching was your thing. Of course, I'm not one to talk..." He was pretty sure that Deity didn't know of his assignment with Voldemort and he hoped she wouldn't press the matter of his teaching. He'd have to explain it to her later.

Deity's lip curled itself upwards, in what that could be called a smirk, "True, true. Err..." she said scanning down the list, "I guess I'll just think of something later." she said throwing the list to one side.
Lizzie jumped off her seat and attempted to grab the pile of letters that Deity have thrown the clipboard at. She sighed as it knocked them over and fell on the floor. Glancing at Deity, it was clear that she wasn't going to pick it up so Lizzie rolled her eyes. She grabbed the dozens of letters that were scattered on the floor and stuffed them into an empty drawer. Shooting her sister a glare, she continued to clear the desk away.

Evan picked up a fallen piece of paper and handed it back to Lizzie. This single act of kindness was actually quite monumental; Evan was never polite like that. He turned to Deity again and said, "Well just don't scare the students away from here; that's all I ask of you."
((Very braindead...))

Deity arched an eyebrow that was hidden by the fridge that fell infront of her face as she waited for Evan to pick up the paper. She rolled her eyes to herself at her sister's reaction and ignored it, disregarding it as just working together, "Me? Scare the children away?" she asked innocently. Laughing, she added, "I attract them," she said in vain as she flicked her blonde hair over her shoulder, "Hardly scare them away, can't say the same for you though." she added jokingly.
A shy smile broke out on Lizzie's face as she took the paper, muttering a word of thanks. See? He's not evil! Jack's such a vile crude liar! she thought to herself, but kept her thoughts blocked from the rest of them as she knew her sister would be able to read it otherwise.

"Ah, well that was sweet," said Evan sarcastically with a grin. "Anyway... I came here to see Elizabeth, but since she's busy with you, I guess I'll have to leave and come back later." He gave a look to Deity that expressed a need to talk to her as well but made sure this wasn't readable by Lizzie.

Deity laughed softly, "I am sweet, that's why I attract them." she said jokingly, rolling her eyes at her sister's clear expression of jealously and anger that currently shone through Lizzie's face. Deity blinked her eyes in a way that sent a message back to him, comfirming that she understood it. "Busy with me? I'm not that annoying." she added defiantly, just breaking the silence as not to alarm or bring suspicion to Lizzie.
Lizzie smiled, "Yeah, she's a handful. You can stay though," then she quickly added, "If you want to, that is." clearly showing a sign of nerves and unsurity. She didn't notice the looks between the two so she carried on, "What did you want to see me about anyway?" she asked, secretly glad that he did want to see her.
Rolling her eyes, Deity added, "Oh yeah, and I'll have to supervise one of your lessons." she said with a roll of her eyes, "Gurv's orders." she added, referring to her job as a School Governer and she'd still have to remotely suck up to Lizzie.

((Lol, I've got Jack supervising Evan's second one on boggarts. Maybe Deity could do the third?))
"Seems like the Ministry is quite wary of what I'm doing in class. That's strange," spoke Evan as he placed a slightly bewildered look on his face while hiding his amusement. "I suppose you can watch over my third lesson then," he spoke.
What did you want to see me about anyway?
Evan paused and said simply, "I just wanted to apologize for what happened earlier in your office with Jack. Didn't mean for that to happen," he said. For anyone that knew him well, he was clearly lying but this would sound like an honest apology to someone like Lizzie.
