Lavinia didn't want to be in the Hospital Wing. She was fine. But no one believed her. Okay, yeah, she knew her depression was.... well, it was bad right now. She was skipping meals, skipping choir and orchestra practice or feigning inability to participate. She was.... well, she didn't feel much of anything right now. She felt like she was in a thick fog. Nothing felt memorable, or enjoyable, and going out her life as if nothing was wrong was just so exhausting. Everything just felt like such a burden. When she finally hit that point, where any activity felt like too much, her dorm mates realized something was wrong. Because that morning she refused to get out of bed. It was almost like she hadn't even heard them, just totally numb to everything. They figured she was sick, and just needed some extra sleep. Classes started, and they went their separate ways. Lunch rolled around, and there was no change in Liv. She hadn't even moved. By the time dinner hit they knew something was wrong and told the Head Nurse. 

Now, shortly after dinner, Liv was sitting on one of the Hospital wing beds, her legs pulled up tight against her chest and staring blankly at the curtain around the bed. So no one would see her in there and wonder why she was there when she looked 'fine'. Of course the Hogwarts medical staff knew about her 'condition'. Her parents had told them. They were the ones that made sure she took the potion that was supposed to help. And intervene when she fell into bouts of severe depression. Like right now.

Hannah was made aware of Lavinia Creevey not too long ago. The girl had severe depression, as she was told, and Hannah was not sure if she had been taking the medicine given to her, or if it just wasn't working. She had just returned from lunch, and as she walked back into the Hospital Wing, she saw the girl sitting on one of the beds, the curtain shut tight. Hannah has seen her before, but had never really sat and had a heart to heart with Lavinia. Hannah took a deep breath and walked forward, sitting on the bed in front of her and pulled the curtain back.

"Hello, Miss Creevey. How are you?" Hannah knew the answer wasn't going to be great. By the way she was looking at her, she could tell there was something wrong, more than what their usually had been. The head nurse had left Lavinia up to her, which she did not mind, if anything she was glad. Hannah enjoyed getting new things to do, but she also enjoyed helping the students. "Are you thirsty?"

Headmaster Longbottom's wife was the one that walked in. Lavinia remembered spotting her a few times around the school but they'd never really had any conversations. Despite that Liv had never hated the woman. She'd always thought that she sounded sweet. Not only that, anyone that could mother Jayden, a boy in her year, had to be a good person. So, normally she would have jumped at the chance to get to know this woman.

Today wasn't one of those days.

Lavinia didn't move, not even an inch when Hannah Abbott came to sit down and asked how she was doing. Liv's expression was one nothingness, absolutely no emotion registering. "Fine." She managed to force out, despite the word tasting like vinegar. It was such a blatant lie, and it wasn't even slightly believable. Her gaze flickered from the end of the bed to the blonde woman, then back down as she finally moved to pick at one of the loose threads on the sheets. "No." At least that answer was the truth. She wasn't thirsty. She should be, but she wasn't.

Lavinia was exactly how Hannah expected. Very somber and to the point. Just like Andromeda was not too long ago. Hannah had dealt with many friends that had some type of depression, especially as children at Hogwarts themselves. So seeing this young girl, she just felt like she had to help. She had to do something. So, she was fine, and not thirsty. Hannah tilted her head to the side as she looked at Lavinia and smiled. "Have you been taking your medicine?"

Being as blunt as Ms. Creevey was, was incredibly easy for Hannah. Her children spoke her to in that way, she'd reciprocate. They wouldn't get away with disrespect in that way, but with Lavinia, it wasn't disrespect. It was just...her and how she was feeling. "Can you tell me what's going on? What's changed? Is it the tournament?" Hannah's eyebrows went up as she glanced at the blue eyes of this girl.
