Slug Club Party! Open to Everyone
Rebecca smiled tightly as Professor Slughorn finally left her grasp, and she wiped at her eyes. Oh, this was terrible! Professor Slughorn had been her absolute favorite, and as a head of house, you couldn't ask for more! Rebecca had constantly gone to him for career advice, life advice, and just to talk, and yes--he was a bit stuck in his ways, but it wasn't a bad thing to want to make good connections. He knew how to truly be a Slytherin, and she was sad that he was leaving his post.

She should be happy that he was leaving the same year she finished her education at Hogwarts, but knowing that the Potions Master was not going to be in the dungeons come September constantly reminded Rebecca that she would not be in the school after June. It was a terrifying thought, being a Hogwarts graduate. Rebecca was sure she was ready for her internship, but for the rest of the real world? She wasn't so sure.

There had been whisperings at the last family dinner, about proper suitors and all that..

She sighed greatly and lingered by the drinks, her eyes casting over the various punch bowls. Everyone looked lovely, and she would normally be in a twitter about the celebrities that roamed the Great Hall, but at the moment she could only be melancholy.

She was miserable at this. Honestly, for a Slytherin, Mackenzie had found she could rarely been cunning and deceptive when she wanted to be; only a certain times did she seem able to deceive anyone, and even then it would come and go. She supposed she could blame the lack of practice on that fact, but. It wasn't exactly that she strived to be a good liar, in the past or now.

Well, now a silver tongue would have been much appreciated.

Mackenzie let out a quiet sigh, distracted slightly for a moment as she eased her own thoughts. So, it came as a surprise to her when Sebastian stood up quickly and swept her out of her chair as well. "I don't---" she started as he headed toward the center of the room, where most people were standing. Talking to people really wasn't on her list of things to do that very moment. While she usually did enjoy it, yes, but not right now. This was a bit too much for her.

But much to her surprise, Sebastian pushed past the people, heading in a direct line toward the door. Once she finally caught on to what he was intending to do, a small smile appeared on Mackenzie's face, and she moved closer to him as they walked. Yes, of course he knew that walking around their old school would make her feel better: she had always felt most at home here, a place where she could just be herself.

"Are we going to do our old rounds?" she asked in a quiet tone once they were finally alone. Mackenzie shook her wrist out of Sebastian's grasp only to latch her arm around his.
