AFTER BOTHERING RUE WEISS FOR the the last few months on their opinion on what Mina Oliveira thought about him, Ares simply thought it would be best to visit - to be upfront and direct with the one he let get away. Sure, he might have had an accidental baby with Mina's older sister but that wasn't exactly his fault. He didn't know the woman, it was an odd hookup in a grimy bathroom and well..he was young. Stupid.

Ares knew what he wanted now. And that was simply Mina's attention. During their time in Hogwarts, Ares pulled the same thing, the same method of getting her attraction. But of course, like all young men, his eyes wondered. It's not that he was begging for a relationship out of the Oliveira, but he just..wanted to be in there one way or another. To be seen on the same level that Rue or even Gehry Ollivander was on. The bestest of friends. With potential benefits of course.

Ares chose a day he absolutely knew Callisto would not be around, especially since their shared custody met that Sebastian still spent some of his time in the week at the Oliveira household. So as he waltzed up to the apartment, Ares knocked three odd times, hoping that it would give the impression that it was him. After all, bothering Mina was what he done best.

Mina was hungover as fuck.

The pounding headache that had plagued her all morning was not going away with magical or muggle means, and she was starting to think that it was a side effect of age rather than anything else in particular. With slowing down on her staying out late and drinking over the last few years, she had noticed a decreased tolerance as well. She found so much more enjoyment out of eating edibles and chilling all night when she had the following day off than she did in going to muggle house parties and getting absolutely trashed. Hugging the toilet had happened with far more frequency lately than it ever had before. And hair of the dog was bullshit. The only dog hair she was willing to deal with today was the kind that came off her own dog. Even thinking of putting more booze into her body made her stomach lurch.

”I’m never drinking again,” she groaned to her dog, who had managed to be an actual pleasant companion for once in her life. Callisto had taken Sebastian to their parents, as it was easier to have him there than hearing Aunt Mina vomiting all morning. Just when she thought she was starting to become some kind of picture of responsibility, and she went and got shitfaced to the nth degree.

The sudden pounding on the door to her apartment woke her up from the momentary sleep she had slipped into halfway through petting Titania. The loud yips that followed from her cloud-in-dog-form drew a sharp ’shhh’ from Mina, to no avail. Who was knocking on her door today of all days? Callisto would never forget her keys, so it definitely wasn’t her. And Sarah would at least text that she was coming over, despite her flaws. Mina secretly hoped it was just Evy, but knew it probably wasn’t.

Wobbling off of the couch and towards the door, she stuck her eye up to the peephole. It was Ares. Why did it have to be him today? Groaning down at her dog, who seemed to read the mood, Mina unlocked the door and pulled it open only a bit. She definitely looked like shit because she felt like shit. ”Callisto took Seb to our parents. So he should be there, I guess,” she forced out.

LEANING AGAINST THE OLIVEIRA DOORFRAME as he waited for someone to open the door, the Lestrange couldn't help but give Mina his best smirk as he saw her wonderful, hungover expression. He noticed how she had only cracked the door open a tiny bit, and the thought of her not wanting guests - even as someone as glorious as himself - made him rather sad.

"Who said I'm here for Seb?" He began, leaning more against her door. "So who were you with last night?..Or where? Muggle? Magic?" Ares had heard from the grapevine bothering Rue, that Mina was becoming more of a homebody on a regular basis, so seeing her outside was more of a rare sight. "And where was my invite? Aren't I the bartender here?"
