It was working.
Yes, you gorgeous little nymph, of course it's working. Because you made a plan, and you're brilliant.
Henri's ego purred, as did the evil seed inside her that so craved the nutrition of chaos. The flowering bud had been restless - the occupants of Hogwarts were terribly boring. So far, she had convinced two curious girls to pursue their curiosity together, she had helped the break up of a long standing relationship, and she had pierced three ears and a belly button. But nothing seemed to keep her mind challenged, there was no standing distraction. Tonight, however, had promise.
She smiled at Alice. "You're right. You know best for him, huh? You guys are like... super close, right?"
Andrei addressed Alice, and Henri leaned towards Shadow. "Aren't they just the cutest couple you've ever seen?" she whispered, giggling. That was sure to confuse all parties.
Andrei announced his readiness, but another person burst in, rendering the spinning bottle null. Ah, Keith. Henri liked the kid. He was snide, he tried really hard to be a bad boy, and he was the local drug dealer. She could tell, however, beneath that smirk was a typical, sexually-charged, inexperienced young boy way more eager than he cared to show. She was sure if he stayed, she could see some of that embarrassing enthusiasm that came with inexperience. She smiled.
"We were going to do some spin the bottle. I'm sure, with your reputation, you've done it so many times that it's child's play to you. We could always upgrade to some heavier duty stuff. We're all adults here, right? I bet Andrei and Shadow wouldn't mind?" She grinned at them, before looking at Keith. "And with your reputation, anything sillier would probably be shameful. What about you, Alice?" she turned her eyes on the Hufflepuff, singling her out as the only one potentially lame enough to not want to upgrade the game. "What do you think?"
