Never before had she done anything so manipulative in her recent years. One could say that she'd gotten soft over time. Natalia first came to Hogwarts a selfish, overly driven, prideful person. She was a reflection of the evil her parents had fallen into. Only two person managed to get the niceness out of her then, and they were both dead now. She had been bitter after that time, the death of the one boy she'd ever loved. Since then, she hadn't tried very hard to find love again. She'd come close, but she only ruined it with her absence.
She was good at that, running away. Natalia had mastered the art and made it her own. It was the one reason why she hadn't finished her schooling yet, despite being 20 years in age. Now, she was through with running; she wanted to complete her schooling and perhaps find love along the way--or make it. In her potions class, Natalia had brewed and bottled all sorts of emotions, illnesses, and medicines. However, it wasn't until recently that they conjured up love. Though it didn't substitute for the real thing, she felt that it would be better than not feeling anything at all.
She knew her target: Zachary Holden. Okay, so she didn't know him, but she wanted to. Her first choice would've been Cole Halliwell, but since he's married, she supposed she shouldn't interfere. Zac Holden, she'd seen around once or twice. Attractive? Yes. Natalia just hoped this would work. In her grasp was a small box of chocolates, a few which contained the very potion she'd brewed. Natalia ate one of the chocolates that didn't have the potion in it and made a face. She never cared much for sweets, but she especially hated the chocolate with that stupid orange nugat inside. Even so, she needed to convince Zac that these chocolates were edible.
Not only did she make effort to make the chocolates presentable, she did the same with her own appearance. The effects of amortentia did depend on not only the potion but also the attraction to the individual. She wore a sweet scented perfume, her hair was nicely curled, she wore a nice sundress with leggings underneath. She thought she looked nice, and she hoped that Zac would think so as well. Natalia drew in a breath before entering the office for the TAs and relaxed herself before approaching the TA's desk. "Zac Holden? Might I have a word?"
