AGENTS OF CHAOS

[Otis Barberis]

As much as Otis wanted to go outside in the cold winter, Otis was going to pass today. Totally being sarcastic, Otis had left the Rouerie common room after just sending a letter. This said letter had been sent out to one of the few males Otis could call his best mate and was a bloke. Otis had tons of friends that were girls and don't get him wrong, he loved them to bits and pieces. It was just nice having a guy for a friend. He didn't have to hear about emotions or feelings about guys and Mattie was cool. He did all sorts of crazy things with that bloke. Otis could still remember when they first met. Otis was just as weird as ever as he tried to explain to someone who didn't have the ability to See the future. It all worked out in the end didn't it? Just as Otis had predicted of course. It was hard not to be wrong when he saw the future.

In the letter that he had sent to Matthew, he told him to meet him by the Room of Requirement. He felt like doing something fun with him as a way of celebrating Otis coming back. He knew he should probably go do something with Kabriel and Lily as well, but he needed some bromance right now. He planned on thinking up of something pretty epic with Matthew. Otis was definitely going to include trampolines since Otis had a mild obsession with those things. They were so odd and made Otis feel like he could fly. He always wondered what form his animagus would take. He knew that his Patronus was a cheetah, but he didn't think he was a Cheetah in an Animagus form. The form a person's animagus would take would relate to their personality. Patronuses were just what the person perceived as protecting them. Otis assumed that his took the form of a cheetah because they were fast and couldn't be caught. Well, sort of. Cheetahs could be caught by animals that had more cardiovascular endurance. Still, Otis thought it was cool and majestic looking whenever he practiced them. He didn't have a cause to use them yet.

Otis probably should have included that he should come soon since Otis found out that he was already here. "Huh." Otis shrugged. The inside of Beauxbatons was engrained into his muscle memory. And here he thought he would forget where everything was. Otis chuckled shortly at his overestimation. He should have known that after being here so long and with him being Head Boy he would know every crack in the school. He could probably walk the corridors with his eyes closed if he tried hard enough. Otis always had a knack for his photographic memory. It never worked too well when trying to memorize school facts, but places and people's faces were just so clear when he closed his eyes. Otis shoved his hands into his pocket and leaned against the opposite wall of where the door to the Room of Requirement was.

notes; knock yourself out with crazy creativeness!

The moment that a note had been slipped under his dorm room dorm, he bolted from his position strewn across the queen sized bed. His fur coated Viking bed was the only one of many, many perks of being a boy attending Beauxbatons. There were not enough of them in most houses to have to share a room unless they really wanted to. The other great part about the boy-girl ratio was the beautiful fact that some of the boy dorms had been converted for use as a girl’s dorm. This made sneaking in and out of each others room so much easier in the long run. All the sneaking about was just a giant waste of time. This way he was in and out in record time. Ahhh… The many wonderful aspects of being a part of the under populated male generation at the academy.

After tossing Otis’s note, among other ripped pieces of parchment, on his desk, he began his extremely short prep time. He had a habit of not dressing completely when he was hanging out in his own room. Or other peoples rooms for that matter. He threw on a soft faded baby blue Beauxbatons long sleeved t-shirt that had the academy’s name sprawled across his brawny chest and a pair of ripped ‘vintage’ jeans that were broken down in all the right places. He was not one for concealing his deadly weapon appendages; however, he was not too enthusiastic on Otis discovering his little Rachele related secret quite yet.

The young Cossu tousled his long chestnut locks into their normal haphazardness and with that he escape speedily from the commons. He was not too keen on being caught by a first year girl pleading for a conversation or a whiny Kabriel asking when they are going to talk. Not today chickadees. Today was man day. He had a man date and he was proud of it.

The towers of the Cossu habitat was not far from their meeting place yet, as always, Otis had beaten him to the location. He picked up his melancholy pace and swiftly jogged the last little distance to where his friend was awaiting his arrival. ”What? No corsage?” he joked playfully. Mathew mimicked his companion’s pose by leaning against the wall opposite the room. Crossing his arms, Mathew cocked his head at what he was staring at. ”You do realize to make that work you have to walk in front of it… right?” Mathew had many a time used the disappearing room for many an activity. Both honorable and not so honorable. And if he knew Beauxbatons, and he knew Beauxbatons, typically the first key step to get into room was to open the door.

”So, my liege. why have you called this meeting of the brethren?” Mathew pondered before turning his only head to face his comrade.

Ah yes, he could always count on Matthew to have an interesting time. He always felt like a mischievous boy ready to pull some fantastic prank on some poor soul. It was nice to be a bit carefree now that he didn't have to enforce any rules. Of course, he was like that anyways before resigning from Head Boy. Otis had always wondered what it was like not following the rules. Was it exhilarating and made your blood pump with adrenaline? It was exactly that and Otis couldn't stay away from that feeling.

He heard quick footsteps as Matthew grew closer, Otis turned his head and beamed at him. He snickered at Matthew's comment. "Sorry sir, I left it in my dorm." Otis joked back. Matthew joined him on the wall that faced the entrance to the Room of Requirements and there was a brief silence as both of them just stared at the opposite wall. "No, I'm just going mentally tell it to open. Of course I know that!" Otis said sarcastically and pushed away from the wall.

Keeping up the act of civilized men of authority, Otis rubbed his cleanly shaved chin. "I have called this meeting of the brethren to enact a day of pure shenanigans. The first step is to come up with something incredibly ridiculous which then proceeds with going through that door." Otis instructed. He did after all ask Matthew to come to him and not the other way around. He let down his little act and was himself for a few comments. "But I'm throwing in trampolines since those things are bloody fantastic and purely magical objects." Otis added with a boyish smile. He had been on trampolines only a few times and loved the feeling of jumping for hours and flipping about. It wasn't like being on a broom since the ground wasn't going to splatter you to bits.

”Don’t let it happen again,” he replied dryly to his forgetfulness. Mathew chuckled to himself as his friend ran on about the brethren and their proposed tasks for the day. Otis had been Mathew’s friend for the longest of time. They entered school together and were so similar in their ideas that they just clicked. Their bromance was one to be rivaled by many other students. It was almost as if they coveted their duoship. They constantly were wondering who could be the third side to their unfinished triangle. They needed that one other person to finish them. Over the years there had been many applicants for the position however; it was a tough spot to fill and no one was up to the challenge.

The young Cossu saluted him after his orders but his stiff stance quickly slumped against the wall again. Trampolines? Otis had always been one for childish tendencies and there was no one thing wrong with that. Mathew, though he had mischievous habits, was never able to capture that naïve habit, despite his best effort to mimic Otis. ”Trampoline floor are in order,” Mathew interjected while Otis conjured up his idea for the room.

Mathew had only once before opened the room before on his own. Many times he had discovered students in the mysterious room but, they had never created anything as spectacular as these two boys were about to create. Mathew pushed himself off the cobblestone to join Otis, staring at the bare wall. ”I guess we better start thinking hard and pacing, no?” he suggested to the Rouerie.

Otis could already see it now. Most of the floor would be a trampoline and as for the rest...Otis had yet to figure that out. He did have his idea for a trampoline floor, so maybe all that was left was for Matthew to think of something and then they'd be done. It would just have to do for now since Otis had one idea fixated in his imagination right now. Matthew was the Cossu here; he was supposed to be the creative one of the two since Otis was a Rouerie. Otis could execute the plans created by Matthew. He'd be willing to give credit to Matthew for most of their mischief ways.

Otis looked over to Matthew and nodded at his statement for them to begin. "Agreed. You think of your plan and I'll think of my trampolines. And other stuff." Otis said and made sure to add the last bit so it wasn't just entirely trampolines. As much as Otis loved those things, he figured it would be hard to stay steady if the entire floor was a trampoline. Although, it would make for an interesting day.

So Otis began to pace back and forth and thought about his trampoline floors with a high ceiling room. For all Otis knew, the trampoline could be magical and make them go extra high whenever the made contact with the trampoline. Ah, screw trying to think of anything else, Otis thought. Matthew was sure to come up with something and if he didn't, they would be doing a lot of jumping and doing back flips. Maybe this would be the start of their ninja skills. They start out working on the trampoline with their crazy flips and then move to an actual ground. After pacing three times in front of the Room of Requirement, Otis stopped and saw a door. Looking to Matthew with glee in his eyes, Otis went to grab the handle and opened the door for Matthew to enter first. "After you." Otis said and swept his arm towards the entrance.
