━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ 11th january 2026
AH JANUARY. THE START OF A new year already! Ares hadn't even expected to live throughout 2025, but with more twists and turns...Here he was. Father of two and even...Somewhat settled down now. The Lestrange was even surprised Sutton had such a tight grasp on him, but his eyes barely wandered anymore. Ares knew whenever they did...Sutton would somehow figure it out and...Well. Leave the rest to imagination. But with a new year coming and passing, Ares also knew that meant more mischief to get up to within the Purifiers. He just didn't know what to expect as of yet.
Entering through the mirror portal, Ares nodded in the direction of other members, before hopping over to Rue's lab. The crafty witch usually spent most of her time working on potions or whatever her mentor had advised upon yet...It was a surprise that Rue was actually no where to be found. Lifting his brows and shrugging, Ares remembered his reason for being at the base. Something about a potential meeting or some sort. He couldn't remember the details.
Turning the corner, away from Rue's lab, Ares didn't expect to bump into someone and while he was quick to apologise, he didn't want the figure to leave so quickly. As he got a closer look at her, the Lestrange was already intrigued by her appearance. Not because she was attractive, because she was, but more so for the features that changed so quickly. "My apologies." Ares began, smiling at her.

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone Diana crossed one foot over the other on the table while she flipped through her notes. There had been business to attend to later in the evening, but she’d heard something about a meeting and figured she would stay nearby. Plus, it was hardly urgent. Enchanting a sneakoscope to have the opposite effect was child’s play and incredibly ironic as her sister was a live version. But, her thoughts didn’t linger on Kinsey long nor any of her family really—not her twin Cara or the triplets or even her brother. They were simply people that existed in her world now though Diana was conscious enough to know it was just better that way. She closed her small notebook with a sigh and stood up, flipping her light blue hair over her shoulder. She had been in a good mood, hence the brighter color, and it had been her choice for today.
Other members must have heard about this meeting as the base was more crowded than usual, but she didn’t mind. Most minded their business and asked questions when they needed to. As far as her work was concerned, if she could blend in here, she could blend in anywhere. The side business of updating artifacts doubled as a network of information, plus many hardly knew she was the same vendor due to her appearance changes, and going from point A to point B was easy enough. Swinging her backpack over her shoulder by a single strap, she walked down a hallway to the larger common area but stopped when a figure turned the corner and almost ran right into her.
It was a face she had seen around, or she thought—but a name didn’t come to mind. But she had been startled at the moment, and her hair reverted to a darker color, her blond streak making its appearance once more. And since her brain decided she would be at her default state, her nose also decided to change, not that she minded. A smile slowly came to his features, and Diana’s eyes looked him up and down, he was good-looking, and she didn’t have anywhere else to be. ”No apology needed.” She reassured him in a calm tone. If Diana had been in this position not three years ago, she would have blushed red, her hair turning red as well, and she would have scurried away. But, she supposed the walls she had built also served as a foundation for confidence in ways. ”And who might you be?”

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ NOTING ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THAT SHE was a Metamorphmagus, Ares watched fairly amused as her hair changed colour and even the shape of her nose changed also. His smile rose to a small smirk as the Lestrange also watched as she looked him up and down. In his slight younger days, Ares would've been first to jump the gun, flirting with whoever walked by him. But now he had settled down with Sutton, shackled by her wildness and beauty, the Lestrange simply looked at attractive people from afar. "Still..No harm in apologising for something I almost caused."
At her question of who he was, Ares' smirk remained. He hadn't given his name before to other purifier members, and instead used fake aliases or even the first letter of his name. "A." He answered simply, rocking back on his heels. "I'd say more, but that would ruin the fun of getting to know you." His flirtatious side was expected out of him, but the Lestrange knew he wouldn't do anything that would ruin his relationship with Sutton. "And who might...You be?"

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone He was calm, insisting on the apology, and who was Diana to deny him? ”If you insist.” Few people knew who she was. Some didn’t pay attention enough to notice that she was the same girl but with different hair or nose was larger than the last time they saw her. It helped and also meant there were fewer questions. She supposed that most people were part of this group voluntarily with their own agenda and mission in mind—Diana was a different story. The choice had not been hers in the long run. Her initial choice so long ago lead to where she stood now in front of a handsome stranger.
A small smirk appeared on her face at his response. It was never her intention to find these types of connections in her life, let alone at the home base. But if the past year and a half had taught her anything, was that shutting down and just acting felt much better than how she used to be. ”I’m sure you give everyone that line.” He sounded seasoned in that sense. ”Well, A, walk with me, and maybe I’ll tell you.” She scooted the strap of her backup back up her shoulder where it had slipped a little, and she began to stroll, wondering if he would follow.

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ SMILING AS THE METAMORPHMAGUS REPLIED to him, Ares nodded - knowing that his reasoning would always win over someone in a conversation. But as she smirked up at him, the Lestrange couldn't help but match her, his smirk only rising and widening into a slight grin.
"Me?..Pfft. No way." He objected in an argument, his words filled with sarcasm. "I don't flirt with just anyone you know." He began, folding his arms across his chest to feign that he was offended. "Just the prettiest people around." He added before nodding. As she began to stroll off, Ares soon followed behind, getting a quick look-over at her before catching up to her side. "So what should I call you?...Miss...?"

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone The mystery man ‘A’ was tall and handsome, there was a charming aspect to him, but she supposed that was expected of anyone in this little gang. Even Diana hardly recognized herself at times. One couldn’t be calm and sweet when working for the dark side against their will—not that she could openly discuss that. As he denied her claim and then returned with yet another line, she glanced up at him with a side-eye. ”Hm…you must be very popular.” It was harmless flirting, and again she surprised herself at times, but it was easy to have such confidence when you wore a mask to survive.
Plus, in the nature of her illegal work, she couldn’t show that soft side—it was dangerous. Again he asked about her name and she often alternated using her first and middle name. Many of Elaine’s group knew her name, and really she didn’t overthink about that implication since she didn’t want to deal with the anxiety. ”Eoina.” She responded. They were strolling down the hall, and she could hear people speaking in various rooms but paying no mind to anything else. ”So, A—what do you do?”

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ SMIRKING AT THE MYSTERY WOMAN'S response, Ares kept his pace alongside her, thinking about how Sutton would have definitely said something similar to him - if she hadn't done already in their younger years. "Very popular?..We're not in school you know." He grinned, looking over at her briefly before moving over to the other side of the hallway as there were more Purifier members walking their way.
As the Lestrange returned by her side and continued to walk, he found himself briefly nodding at the mention of her name. A cover-up he guessed, similar to his own - except his was definitely less than creative. "Front-line I suppose. I'm always the one to offer any kind of manpower whenever the missions undergo. But I also don't mind a good torturing or two." He grinned, before repeating her same question. "What do you do...Eoina?" He parroted, trying to pronounce her name the same way she had done so.

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone It was surprising how many people she still didn’t have in the Purifiers, and for some, she knew faces but not names. There was the handful she knew by names, such as Asher Burke or Ondina Weasley. Though only by necessity. Burke had taught her Occlumency, and Diana had learned that her training had become easier if she focused on her hatred of this man and his piercing blue eyes. Ondina she had known almost her whole life since the Potters were her neighbors. Frankly, after Elaine's involuntary recruitment, Diana had been surprised that Ondina had paid so much attention to her.
Shutting down, putting on a façade, and making her way in the world like this was far easier than the alternative. That vague memory of that shy girl in Ravenclaw was just that sometimes—a memory. Diana smirked back at him. He was the type of guy that Diana would have noticed from afar in school but never actually spoken to. A was one of Elaine’s enforcers, she guessed. And it made sense with his physical build. It wasn’t a job she’d ever volunteer to do. Despite the constraints of her Vow and veiled threats against her loved ones, she still tried her best to minimize her involvement if possible. ”The muscle.” She confirmed, looking at him once again. But he, in return, he’d asked her what she did. Instead of responding immediately, Diana looked at him and let her hair change from light blue to light blonde. ”Take a guess.”

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ WHILE ARES WAS THE TYPICAL type to communicate and converse with even a rock, it felt more difficult doing so with any or every member of the Purifiers. Maybe because ninety percent of the members were trying to conceal their true identities from everyone. It was somewhat amusing to the Lestrange though, considering how many familiar faces he discovered the longer he remained a member, especially when he first discovered that Rue and even Sutton were members too. There were other members that he had worked alongside, discovered their true identities and kept his life going. He had no reason to rat out anyone, especially when he got up to enough chaos as the next person.
"The muscle." He repeated with a chuckle, nodding along. "It's an enjoyable role though. Drive yourself up with enough adrenaline and keep yourself going for a few hours." That was the enjoyable part of being a Purifier, alongside with every other small benefit added towards it. As Ares tried to guess Eoina's role within the Purifiers, the Lestrange's lips turned upwards at her sudden change in appearance. "You're a Metamorphmagus.." He noted with a small grin. "Love people like you. Especially by the Black Market area's. So...You're like an infiltrator?.."

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone Diana hated to admit that the main benefit of her cold new reality had been that calming of her mind. Not wondering what she would say to a person and preparing herself in her mind or wondering if her latest rambling about the uses of Acromantula venom would bore somebody. It was liberating. Every time she thought about that, she felt immediately guilty because of the cost. Was it worth the peace of mind and not being as quiet? Was it worth not seeing her family? For now, she shelved the thought, focusing on the man who accompanied her. Elaine didn’t always call meetings, and when she did not, all members attended, typically the ones closest to her, but she’d not seen this man’s face before.
Typically it was Elaine. Diana was there by virtue of her magical imprisonment and occasionally faces such as Ondina or Asher Burke. It was strange to see some like Ondina in such a setting. Diana’s family had grown up alongside the Potters and Weasleys. Ondina wasn’t that sickly little girl anymore whining on the sidelines. But he admitted he was part of the ‘muscle’ of the group, and she could see why plus he seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. ”Don’t mind getting your hands dirty, do you?” But the attention quickly shifted as she forced her hair color to change. Like her siblings, Blonde then changed it to a rich black. ”I can blend in where I’m needed.” Typically, black market activities or surveillance, being Elaine’s eyes where she subtly needed them.

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ AT EOINA'S QUESTION, ARES' LIPS couldn't help but turn upward. Not minding getting his hands dirty was far from the truth. Ares absolutely loved it. He loved the thrill of violence, the consequences it brought and the potential results that ended in failure. While he hated failing in missions and what not, it also made him a better person. It helped him figure out the issues and how one could improve, which not everyone enjoyed seeing or analysing. "More like love it." He shrugged, trying to play it off but the grin that swept across his lips were giving off more than he revealed.
As he noted that Eoina was a Metamorphmagus, the Lestrange found himself smiling once more as the colour of her hair shifted once more. "Amazing...I always envied people like you, especially while growing up." Being able to conceal your identity or show your emotions through subtle changes was seemingly fascinating to the Lestrange. "Maybe my next generation will have a chance." He added with a smirk. "Does...That mean you were on the recent mission then?..I don't think I saw you out on the lines anyway.."

Show up when I’m stuck in this zone When I'm all alone Fake names and secret meetings, on rare occasions, there was a little bit of a thrill to it. The longer this all went on, the less of a thrill anything felt. The numbness Diana had brought upon herself helped her get by as she daydreamed about the possibility of ever being free. It was a fantasy, but at least it was a goal, however unattainable it felt. Her work required much more finesse than anything the muscle might be required to do, and keeping her identity a secret was really for her own safety at this point. Even if she was arrested and brought in for illegally modifying a potion or encasing a hex in a pocket watch—she couldn’t talk if she wanted to. And her family did not need to know these details of her life.
Diana changed her hair once more back to blonde, which was her natural hair color. The irony is that her new friend here would never realize it. At times, the anonymity was jarring, but disassociation was an easy response to her life. She raised an eyebrow slightly at ‘next generation’, but she didn’t ask for elaboration. They walked a bit further and stopped where the hallway could either continue forward or go either left or right. Diana needed to turn right, but she didn’t know where he was going. ”Maybe. Maybe not.” It was her turn to smirk. ”I’m down this way.” She added. Since Diana had never seen ‘A’ at a meeting before, she doubted they were in the same one now, but maybe she’d see him around again.

━ wasted on sunday, erase you on monday ━ WATCHING AS 'EOINA'S' HAIR CHANGED, Ares felt his brows raise in interest. He hadn't known many metamorphmagi in his lifetime, but meeting one or even passing one was enough for the Lestrange's short attention span. This time, the woman's hair was blonde, and to be honest - Ares believed the colour suited her a lot. He had once heard that different hair colours had different meanings, but the Lestrange assumed it differed from person to person. Then again, he had only just met Eoina.
As the two walked further, stopping where the hallway began to split, Ares knew he needed to turn left in order to go bother Rue and whatever sidekick they were working alongside. "What a pity. I'm going left." He replied, sporting a fake pout. "It was lovely to meet you...Who knows. We might see one another in the future." And without bothering to listen for a reply, Ares walked on, lifting his arm to wave without turning back.
[END!]
