[googlefont="Open Sans Condensed:300"] SO GATHER ALL THE REBELS NOW [attr="class","next"] DECEMBER 24, 2024 It was Christmas Eve, and already Isabel was having the worst day of her life. That morning she was awoken by a phone call from her boyfriend – or rather ex-boyfriend – who said that it wasn’t working out between them and said they were better off friends. FRIENDS!? Who the fuck calls someone at the wee hours of the morning and breaks up with them. Isabel was not in the mood for it and told him to shove it and to suck his manhood in the process, she then proceeded to hang up and block his number. Since then, she had been locked up in her room, ignoring anyone and everyone that attempted to come in or talk to her through the door. However, as noon rolled around, she started to grow hungry. She had already finished the cup of water she had in her room, as well as the crackers she had hidden in her gym bag – but it wasn’t enough to keep her alive. She knew that she needed to leave her room, and so she did. Slipping down the steps, her eyes red and black, mostly because she forgot to remove her makeup the night before and had cried the mascara away. Her face was also red from anger, but she kept her chin up as she slipped into the kitchen and grabbed the tub of ice cream from the fridge, a bottle of soda, and threw herself down into the seat in the dining room, tucking her feet beneath her and dug into the horrible food for her body. She was going to eat the whole damn thing too before disappearing back to her room and never coming out until it was time to return to Hogwarts and rip her…ex-boyfriend a new one.
NOTES finally a starter for you both! posting order will be figured out by whoever posts next! [newclass=.next::-webkit-scrollbar]width: 5px;[/newclass][newclass=.next::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb]background: #000;[/newclass]

12.24.2024 The plan for Christmas this year (at least for Mina), was to spend it at her parents’ house. The last month had been…difficult for her, and she knew it was showing. She knew that Cal knew she was struggling a lot, and her boss had started giving her more time off from work. Mina supposed this was a way to give her the time and space she needed to get back to one-hundred percent, and with the arrival of Christmas, the re-opening of fresh wounds. Despite this newfound freedom in a few extra days off each week, that hadn’t slowed down her time during the holiday rush, and there were often times where she felt better at work than she did at home. There were enough quick encounters with customers and people she knew coming in to buy books that it was almost like she didn’t even have time to think about Dakoda. She hated that, but living a life of constant sadness and depression was far worse. Forsaking alcohol hadn’t helped her situation either, and the first few weeks off it had made her extremely irritable. That was all going to change after Christmas though. She could feel it.
So, with her dog leashed up and a small bag for herself and her furry friend, she headed to the Oliveira family home, hoping that Christmas wasn’t going to be brought to a full stop just because there was a dead Dakoda and absent Sarah. Her parents would still enjoy having Sebastian with them, even if that meant the poor kid had to have another Christmas without his mother there. Mina was positive that he saw her parents and Callisto more as parental figures in his little toddler mind than he saw Sarah as that. Personally, Mina didn’t really try to be anything other than the aunt she was. There were enough things on her plate as it was, and taking care of herself and her dog came first. Grandma and Grandpa (which she thought was hilarious to call her parents) were better suited for that, even in their own shortcomings with her and the rest of her siblings. Apparently grandkids deserved more effort.
Arriving a few minutes before noon, she had just enough time to drop her bag into her and Cal’s old room and to have a few quick words with her parents about the ‘mood’ Izzy was in, before they left to go pick up food or something. She wasn’t sure what they meant by her younger sister being in a mood, but decided to watch her dog tear around the backyard from the back patio instead of poking the potentially angry bear that had locked herself in her room.
A few cigarettes and a couple of tossed tennis balls later, Mina decided to leave her pooch up to her own devices in the backyard and went back inside, only to see Izzy perched on a chair in the dining room, shoveling ice cream into her mouth. She looked like hell (which explained the ‘mood’ Mina had been warned about), with streaks of makeup down her face and the signs of a lot of crying. The red puffiness in her eyes was something Mina had seen a lot of in the mirror lately, causing her to give her sister a sympathetic smile. “Can I sit with you Iz?” she asked while kicking her shoes off and heading towards the dining room table. “I won’t take any of your ice cream. I swear.”

Isabel and her boyfriend had been together since last Christmas, or around that time when he had asked her to the Yule Ball, and she had agreed. Her crush had lasted longer than their dating, and why did he break up with her? He didn't say. Well fuck him, she didn't care anyway. She didn't love him and probably never would. They had been a little rocky the past few months, him getting annoyed with her "bad-girl phase" as he called it. She swallowed, what pissed her off the most about it all, was that he waited until the holiday and to be able to do so over the phone.
She stabbed her spoon into the ice cream once more and almost took half the container out and started eating it, just as her sister entered the room. She didn't make eye contact, she didn't care to, mostly because she looked like shit. Usually, Izzy looked so put together, and yet, here she was as a mess.
'Can I sit with you Iz? I won’t take any of your ice cream. I swear.' Isabel shrugged her shoulders, "I don't care," she said with a full mouth of ice cream. She hoped her sister wasn't going to make her talk because she might snap.

12.24.2024 The ‘mood’ was certainly in full force with Izzy today. Mina recalled the first breakup she had in school. It wasn’t nearly as catastrophic as her sister was making hers out to be, but there had been a lot of ice cream consumed and crying had certainly happened. Now it seemed so silly and pointless. There were a million other things out there to be worried and upset about, and dumb boys were definitely not part of that equation. Dragging her chair across the floor loudly, Mina tossed herself down at the table and laid her head down in her arms as she stared across at Izzy. “You’ll get over it. You’ll find someone better. You’ll also laugh when he gets his next girlfriend and she isn’t anything remotely close to being as cool as you are.” Mina didn’t know if her words would be encouraging or damaging, but she wanted to be realistic with Izzy. Things weren’t going to go back to the way they were overnight, or even by the time she went back to school. But it also wasn’t the end of the world.
“Or you could seduce one of his friends to get back at him. I did that once,” Mina laughed as she leaned back into her chair and started to look at her nails. “Then I took his girlfriend too. Boys are dumb, Iz. Forget about them and enjoy school and your friends. I liked it more that way.” Though she was also not going to class or doing homework while she was at Hogwarts, but that was a different sort of lesson she didn’t want her little sister to learn from. Being as un-Mina like as possible was probably for the better. Flourish and Blotts could only handle one Oliveira at a time. It got too crowded whenever there was another one in there.

Isabel continued to eat her ice cream, her mood just as dreary as before her sister had arrived. And it grew even more as she dragged a chair over rather loudly, filling her migraine to the brim. She closed her eyes, rubbing at her temples. It was a crying migraine, it would pass with more ice cream consumed - and she had already taken some medication for it.
'You'll get over it. You'll find someone better. You'll also laugh when he gets his next girlfriend, and she isn't anything remotely close to being as cool as you are.' A whisper of a smile appeared on the brunette's face at her sister's words, but she hid it by shoveling more ice cream down her gullet. And then came Mina's next words about seducing his friend or his next girlfriend, and this time she was laughing and couldn't hide it. "I guess...I'm more pissed off than sad. I mean...who breaks up with someone over the phone?!" she exclaimed, setting her ice cream down and throwing the spoon within.

▲ There it was. Finally a smile appeared on Izzy’s face, if only for a split-second. Mina knew how to get to it, probably because she had been on Izzy’s end a number of times. It sort of became easier after each break-up or frustrating life event. They weren’t all the same either. The dead Dakoda bomb had been a million times worse than anything Mina thought she would ever have to go through, and here she was, acting like everything was just as normal as it had been, even though it clearly wasn’t. Izzy continued to eat her ice cream before finishing it off by tossing her spoon into the container, exclaiming her grievances about being broken up via phone. Mina stared at her, scrunching up her face in a guilty expression. “I have,” she said quietly, raising her hand to show that she was indeed guilty of that charge. “But muggles are different, so that sort of thing is expected. And I didn’t have to see him again after that. You have a sort of different case…” Like taking classes with him and seeing him in the halls, or at dinner. That was way worse than her own case and she knew that. “I know it sucks right now, but it does get better. You’ll be laughing about it next week.” Maybe. Mina definitely would be if she was in the same position, but Izzy still had the problem of going back to school. Her friends were going to ask about it. His friends were going to ask too. That was an inevitable part of all of this, and it wasn’t going to go away overnight. If anything, it would probably suck a lot more the second she got back to Hogwarts than it ever did while at home. And Mina wasn’t going to be there with another tub of ice cream to comfort her.

Callisto had arrived, but she was waiting in the other room. She was listening to the end of the conversation between her sisters... but wasn't sure if she wanted to join in. Break ups weren't really her thing. Relationships weren't really her thing. Mina was handling it really well, actually, and Callisto kind of just liked hearing her younger sister be comforting to Izzy. Still, she realized she shouldn't just be eavesdropping... it was Christmas Eve, after all. She walked into the kitchen and nodded in greeting at her two sisters. "Happy Christmas. Is the ice cream all gone?" she asked, trying to make a lighthearted comment. She didn't really care that much for ice cream but... it was right there. isabel alejandra moreno-hughes mina pandora oliveira(I know this is dead shh)
