Chapter 3: Late Parties

Written: September 1st 2022

Y/N and Ada sat in their claimed rooms for this year, unpacking as Ada was telling about her family. Y/N was paying full attention to what Ada had to say, even if she didn't have a big family anymore. She was smiling at Ada, nodding once in a while to show that she was still listening.

As Y/N was looking where to stack some of her clothes, Garmr made his way in swiftly. "Oh there you are! I thought you left me you stupid dog." Y/N joked as her dog jumped up the bed. Y/N her gaze shifted to Ada, who was smiling kindly. "So, Ada, don't you have a pet with you? I can't imagine a life where I wouldn't have one by my side."

Ada grinned widely at her comment, "I have one! Wait, you will be amazed." She whistled loudly, making a pitch black crow fly in. Y/N gasped at the sight of the bird. "That is just amazing." Y/N dropped the remaining clothes on the bed, walking up to Ada her bird. "Can I pet him? Or is it a her?" Y/N her hand was already about to make contact with the feathers, but she waited patiently till she had consent in touching Ada her pet.

"Its a him, of course you can met him. I think he loves the attention." Ada nodded, folding a small stack of blouses. As Y/N her hand touched the crow, the bird happily moved his head. "What is your name gorgeous?" Y/N smiled, turning around when she heard a small growl evade Garmr his mouth.

"Oh shut up Garmr, like you don't get a lot of attention from me." She saw the beast roll his eyes, as she shook her head returning her gaze back to the bird. "You are going to laugh when I tell you his name." Ada looked at Y/N, a grin showing on her features. "It can't be bad? Come one tell me, I want to address him when I must."

"Alright alright, but promise me you won't laugh, I'm not that amazing with finding names like you did." Y/N wanted to tell her that she didn't chose out the name for her dog, he already had it for so long. But she choose to remain silent once more. "I promise."

"His name is Crowly, on some occasions it is even mister Crowly." Ada scratched the back of her neck, making Y/N smile. "Well then, it is my pleasure to meet you, mister Crowly." Y/N bowed her head at the bird, making the crow show its gratitude. "I don't get why you aren't laughing. Garmr sounds pretty bad ass, and Crowly is just-"

"Every name has its own meaning, Ada. No matter what it is or what it means, it is something important and shouldn't be something to be disrespected." Y/N smiled at her, showing the sincereness in her voice. Ada felt understood by Y/N, like actually making a friend who listened and cared about everything she had to say, unlike her other friends.

"I'm actually amazed by you Y/N, most people ask me why I have a crow, and not an owl." Y/N removed herself from the bird, returning to her uncategorized clothing. "Owls are magnificent birds, but honestly, crows? They are so much more than they showcasing." Y/N explained as she placed the last pieces of her attire in the wardrobe.

"I'm really asking myself why you aren't a Ravenclaw, you speak like you have so much knowledge. And then you are here with me, in Slytherin." Ada wondered as she sat down on her bed, which was at Y/N her left.

"I think if I was a Ravenclaw, I would be a cheater. The sorting hat defiantly didn't want me to be a Hufflepuff." Y/N laughed, but when she thought about it, her smile disappeared, remembering what happened previously.

"I mean, I can see why, no offense but Garmr is as black as the night, and really once more, no offense Garmr-" she looked at the dog who was narrowing eyes at her, "He has some pretty nasty teeth sitting there. I mean, is it even natural for a dog to have such razors in his mouth?"

Y/N tapped her bed, making Garmr to climb up and sit beside her. "He is a real different bread, but it is his natural beauty that I really like. The scary looking outside is probably for everyones own good." Y/N hugged her dog from the side, making Garmr lick her face. "I love you too Garmr." Y/N smiled at him as she scratched behind his ears.
