5th Bite is freshly in love... and then some
Anywhere
[Rin can't believe his luck. Two weeks ago he was cursing his fate and now he has been rewarded with this joy. With someone to hold, to kiss, to love. It's a complete 180 from two weeks ago and it shows in his mood. He's grinning and laughing everywhere he goes, feeling mischievous and in a good mood. Suddenly he's nice and practically beaming at everyone he talks to, probably leaving not a few people confused. He's almost skipping on his toes and his game is better than it had ever been and he has a newfound motivation in lessons. Except... his grades haven't maybe changed as much, like he doesn't learn as much as before, but anyone who has seen him with a certain white haired Ravenclaw student can probably guess he's got better things to do.]
Dark corner
[Except there's one catch. That whitehaired Ravenclaw was a boy. And though Rin tried not to promote it too much, he isn't hiding it either and answered honestly to everyone who asked. Yes, he and Seth were dating. Usually people were okay with this... But not always. Rin has long ago learned that what other people said, or thought is by no means important, but that didn't mean it couldn't hurt him... or worse. His usual reply to any form of discrimination is a flash of sharp teeth, a warning growl and a seethed 'Get lost', but some people are just really resilient to that. Especially the ones who may not be taller, but had twice as broad a chest as him.]
What you a pansy?
[Is what he would face at least thrice a week, pushed against a wall and surrounded, and that is still the better case. He'd fight back, but usually he's gravely outnumbered.]
Toiletts, yet again
[Since encounters like that begun to happen in quite the frequency, Rin started to carry some make up with himself to be able to cover up the bruises. Taking a trip to the nurse's office each time it happened would be like begging for the teachers to get mixed up in this and he doesn't want that.
Thus, usually after such an encounter, he can be see hurrying to the nearest rest room, covering a part of his face, or keeping his head down, hair falling into his face, concealing it. This heightens the risk of bumping into someone, of course, but if he does, he just hurries further, not wanting to deal with the various looks of pity, or contempt.
Once in front of the mirror he washes his face and dibs the marks gently with powder, staring at his reflection in the mirror with an angry look, tears shining in his eyes. But these tears he doesn't let fall. He keeps telling himself that they're not worth it, that this is the kind of situation that - as a certain friend would tell him - can be solved with punches, no need to loose precious fluids over it. But it still hurts. Hurts to be hated for who you were... Rin wonders what was so wrong about loving someone, but he can't find an answer, or a reason. So he just bites back the hurt and let's the anger contain in, as he quietly sneers at his reflection.]

Dark Corner
[She doesn't see you in a good light if the first thing you do at something you don't know what was said was to yell back and end up in a fight.]
But by the looks of it so far you're all in the wrong. But I'll need to talk to the others first to be sure. However I feel like you are keeping something back. Call it my Auror instinct.
Dark Corner
[He calls out, raising his voice a little, but quieting down at the look she’s giving him and looks away again.]
I can’t just ignore that…
[Damn, but he’s really not gonna be in the best light, is he? Gets into fights… slacks her subject… And wants to be an Auror. There’s no way she’ll ever allow that by the way things are going. He wonders if it makes sense to deny it. He doesn’t think so. And those outside will probably make it crystal clear to her, in all the juicy details, just how ‘depraved’ he is, anyway.]
I can’t tell you… I’m sorry.
[He only nods when she says she’s going outside to question the others and sinks a little in his chair, wondering if he managed to completely screw his life over now.]
Dark Corner
[She crossed her arms over her chest. She didn't want to be stern but she had to and she had to follow the rules.]
It depends on what they answer will determine if this will require a suspension for all of you or not. So if you are keeping something that might keep you from getting this punishment tell me now. I'm not trying to be mean, I am trying to get to the truth.
Dark Corner
[He bites his tongue, when those words leave him, because he feels like he's finding apologies for his actions and a man can't do that. A man has to face the consequences of his actions. Rin doesn't think he did wrong to defend himself, but ultimately, he did end up in a fight and that's what it all comes down to.
But suspension...? Fear bubbles in Rin's chest at the dreaded word. He can't afford that. What does he do now...? On one hand, he doesn't want to tell her, on the other hand... what would his father say to him, if he was still alive Rin told him he is being suspended?]
They called me a pansy.
[The words are so quiet that one would have to strain their ears to hear them, but they're there, finally spoken.]
And other... homophobic shit. [He really doesn't want to repeat all of it.] I told them to stop and they got physical.
[Rin sighs, giving up.]
I have a boyfriend. They don't like that.
Dark Corner
But even so she knew she wouldn't fully let him go scot free. He still got into a fight.]
Thank you for telling me. Once I speak to them I will give everyone there punishment. At this time for you it might be just be a verbal warning and detention for a month, along with your house losing house points.
[She said that as she did believe him. It was something she knew still happened around the school and it was usually the old school Purebloods that were the cause. She hated people who gave purebloods a bad name.]
You can leave the office and call the next one in. When you do you'll be allowed to leave and head straight to your houses commonroom. This is to avoid any other confrontation, do you understand?
Dark Corner
Yes ma'am.
[He says simply, getting up from the chair, feeling loads heavier and heads out, to send another one in.]
