Hazbin Hotel/Harry Potter : Ava goes to Hogwarts!!

The perfect prank!

It took a lot of planning. After thinking it over, Ava had decided that the best time would be during dinner. She was going to put it into effect today. She had decided to prank the entire Hogwarts staff, instead of just the headmaster. The interaction with Snape was a nice reminder that all the teachers needed to be punished. While Dumbledore was the worst offender as adults, the fact that Snape's behavior is allowed to continue at its current state is clear negligence on the entire faculty's part.

Ava and Sirius had planned this down to the finest detail. Ava had told him her ideas and Sirius had helped her refine them. Now after a week, she was ready to put it into motion. It would be a performance to remember!

Harry and the others were worried that she was going to get caught. Ava assured them that it wouldn't be an issue. The trick itself would be unexpected and it falls on those affected to obtain the burden of proof. Ava can at least trust that teachers can do nothing so long as she isn't caught. Even if they knew it was her there is very little that can be done because she isn't under their care. They were never given permission to punish her.

Her first step was convincing the House elves to place the potion that she had begged Hermione to create in the goblets of the teachers. The elves had been easy to convince. She had told them how much fun the students would have with the potion. How much everyone would appreciate their work. And it wasn't a lie. She was telling the truth. Who doesn't love their teachers being made fools of themselves?

The elves were happy to help and had been quick to carry out her request. If she and Orion left the kitchens with extra snacks then that is her business. Ava is not rude enough to deny gifts, especially at the sender's insistence.

Her second step was to make sure the potion worked exactly as planned. Ava wasn't about to leave anything to chance. She and Sirius had tested a small batch of it the previous night on themselves, just to see how the effects played out. The potion was harmless, of course, but it did have the potential for causing a hilarious amount of chaos.

Despite Ava's anger she doesn't want to hurt the teachers. The jury is still out with Dumbledore and Snape but Ava is nothing but a girl of her word. Not to mention it would be troublesome if they went on her case about mauling authority figures.

Her second step was ensuring that every teacher received the exact amount for the effects to take hold at the same time. A mistimed prank wouldn't have the same impact. She had specifically asked the elves to spike the goblets once the main course was served, knowing that the staff would be too engrossed in conversation to notice anything unusual. With the elves on board and her plan set, Ava felt a mixture of excitement and nerves.

When the day finally came, the anticipation had her practically buzzing but she kept it all hidden. Her eyes stayed glued to the professors, watching their every move as she waited for the right moment. Though a frown graced her face for a brief moment when she noticed that Moody was nowhere to be seen. Where was he?

But she quickly pushed that thought aside. She could always get him next time. Tonight was the perfect opportunity to pull something like this. Everyone would be in the Great Hall. There would be so many people there that no one would be able to track the potion's origins.

She had spent the entire day preparing, going over the plan again and again in her head. She had even practiced her reaction, wanting to be perfectly ready for the inevitable. Not to say that there would be any doubt to her reaction. Ava is an actress after all.

When the time finally came, it was as if everything happened in slow motion. She watched as they drank from their magically filled goblets, not noticing the tint change or the odd smell. Ava couldn't help but put her hands over her mouth to hide the smile growing on her face.
