Aubrey blinked a few times before shaking her head, "I'm sorry, what? Not relevant, not what we should be talking about right now!"

Fred shrugged, a gesture which Aubrey wasn't too fond of: it wounded her to see her shoulders being moved so nonchalantly, "Sorry, if you knew Harry it would be funny."

She narrowed her eyes at him, "You seem awfully casual about this... You DID this!"

"What?" Fred said, arching an eyebrow at her.

"Yeah, you because I pissed you off by letting you make me puke... doesn't make much sense but YOU DID THIS!" She roared, her voice now a lot less echoey than before which was vaguely upsetting. Her's travelled for miles if she really bellowed and Fred wasn't even using it properly.

"Well... you've probably got little pills and you gave me one then took another and BOOM we swapped," She yelled, flapping her arms in a very un-Fred like way (and for that matter, very un-Aubrey like too), "You did this, I can tell by your evil eye - you and George both have it!"

"Are you done?" Fred asked, suppressing a laugh.

"Not really."

"Well, I think I'll talk anyway because it's important. It wasn't me."

"Girl, don't lie to me," She replied dryly, folding her arms.

"I'm not, this is just so pointless, why would I want to swap with you?" He asked, giving her a confused look, "You're hair's already got in my mouth like twenty times - "

"Stop putting my hair in your mouth!"

"Not my fault!" Fred replied defensively, "There's just so much of it! How do you deal with it?"

"If you figure it out can you tell me please?" Aubrey replied dryly.

"Wow, helpful, thanks," He snapped, finally using the power of her voice, "Anyway, wasn't me, why would I want to be you: a girl that I literally made vomit?"

"I don't know. To get into the Triwizard tournament?" She asked, "I'm pretty great, you know, lots of people want to be me, just saying. I set realistic goals for a start and people say I'm fun."

"You're underage too, why would that help me get in?"

"Maybe you didn't know I was underage..."

"Considering you and Kenny literally came to me asking to be made older, I had some idea of your age," He replied with a laugh.

The memory of that whole day brought anger bubbling back up to the surface but she subdued it, "I still think you did this."

"I didn't."

"Well, really it doesn't matter who did it, just how we undo it," She said firmly, "Come on, let's go to the library and see if there's anything there."

Fred kissed his teeth, shaking his head slightly, "Yeah, I don't know about that, I don't really go to the library much."

"Well, I don't want to be stuck like this forever and I doubt you do either! You can put away your pride for just a bit if it means getting into your own body," She replied, pursing her lips at him. Fred collapsed into laughter which only made her do it even more.

"Merlin's beard, stop, you'll make me piss myself," He said between laughs, "You look like bloody McGonagall or something... anyway, I don't think it's worth it."

At this, Aubrey couldn't help but scoff; the idea that Fred would rather not ruin his street cred than go to library was ridiculous. Plus, if he went, they'd think it was Aubrey, no street cred would be lost as she had none to start with. The library was also home to the comfiest chairs in the whole of Hogwarts, possibly the whole country, it was great.
