"Ya, it was an amazing match. The Ravenclaw seeker got the first Snitch, but our seeker Jake came back and got three in a row to win it!!!!" he said, reminicently.

Ziva bit her lip, she was starting to miss Asher again. And Chloe. She sighed walking into the Hufflepuff common room. She smiled when she saw...the-girl-with-kitten.

"Hey there!" Ziva greeted the first year plopping down on a chair near where the girl was at. "What's going on?" she asked pulling a book out of her bag.

"Sounds fun, I might go to the next match." She said with a smile. Leaning back in in her chair she stroked Smore. "What else do you like to do for fun?"

At the sound of someone plopping down in a chair Arya turned around smiling. "Hey! Nothin much, got a new pet. What about you?"She held up her purple pygmy puff as she spoke to show the girl. Perseus hopped off the chaor and over to --what was her name Tia, Nina?--his new friend to cuddle. Arya giggled. "Looks like somebody remembers you."

He...she...what? Yes, Captains were made to be busy, right? Could you imagine a Quidditch team without a Captain? Oooooh, that could be so much fun!

Huh?

Treyen tilted his head to one side and...blinked. "I have no preference, really, but I do like Beaters, my sister was one, though my father was a Chaser, and I don't necessarily like Chasers, but yeah, I like Beaters" even if that wasn't why he'd chosen Drake Warren as favorite, nope, he'd chose him because...have you seen him play?! Bludgers run away from the guy!

Grin. "Apparently not! Since you have to ask if I'm famous or not" but he WAS a celebrity, wasn't he? And he was the one to help Aaron in his quest to rule the world. Because celebrities have to support a cause, yes?

Herbology was...interesting? "I think more than interesting! There are some plants that can kill you, you know? That has to be beyond interesting" because not a single muggle thinks a little plant can be the death of you...and they're waaaay wrong.

Flying...perfection. Sure, why not? Treyen simply nodded, because it was Mr. Marbles time! Or, yeah, not to so much.

Aaron here we come!

"Yes! Later! I'll be waiting to meet Mr. Marbles....and, sure, I'll say you say 'Hello', or 'Hi'" or just simply greeting Aaron in her behalf. "I'll see you around Emalyn!" he waved goodbye and exited the Common Room.

"Well....." Nymphy said thinkning. "I do Quidditch, and practice charms, and collect chocolate frog cards, and support Hufflepuff!" he said with a outburst of pride. "What do you do for fun/" he asked, know hat there may be even more fun to be had here at Hoqwartz that was yet undiscovered by him.

Ema nodded. "I like both positions, chaser and beater. I used to only like chaser, but I started to reeeeally like being a beater a couple terms ago." she smiled. And she could whap people with her bat. Or...well, she couldn't really. But...if she had to, she was ready.

"Oh. Right. Well, you are a Lockhart. And there was that...oh, Gilderoy, right. But not the owl. Though I bet you know all about him." she grinned. He acted like the things she had read about Gilderoy. "And uhh...well, you're probably really famous around Hufflepuff, cause of Kaika." mmhmm!

More than interesting? Yes, but it was interesting, TOO. Ema waved her hand in the air, kind of excusing the situation. Yes, plants could kill you, and no that was NOT fun. But whatever. Herbology was herbology and it was, in fact, interesting. With a tad bit of danger mixed in. "Right." she nodded.

"He'll be waiting to meet you too..." Ema smiled. Though, in honesty, Mr. Marbles had no clue what was going on in the world, not really. "Okay! Catch ya later." she waved, straightening herself in her seat to give him one last smile.

Ziva smiled as the cat snuggled into her. She brought a hand up and stroked the cat's back. "What did you name it?" Ziva asked, actually wondering what she had named this new pet.

"Oh, nothing much. Trying to get ready for OWLs, I just was studying a while ago and needed a break." Ziva told her with a yawn following her statement. The studying for OWLs was draining her of energy.

"Welll, I like to swim and climb the trees or play on the playground. I take care of a kneazle kitten at the sanctuary and lots of other things. There so much to do here I love it!" She gave Smore a few strokes as she smiled at Nymphy.

"I named him Smore cause I looove smores!!" She looked down at her new furry friend as she stroked his head, looking back up when the older girl continued to talk."OWls....sounds hard." Tilting her head to the side she thought about her own exams that would be coming up soon. "How many are you taking?"

Ziva sighed and sunk down even farther in her chair. "I don't remember how many. I lost track at the begginning of the school year." Ziva told her. "I know that herbology one is going to kick my butt though!" she exclaimed in a groan.

Delanie walked into the common room, her laptop tucked underneath her arm. Torin had said he wanted to PARTY!So they were gonna party. She had told him over Twitter that she'd meet him down here. Dee curled up on the couch, waiting for her brother/man of many nicknames.

Torin practically jumped down the stairs as he went to meet Dee. She had told him that they would have a little party here, and he was excited to get down to it. He needed something fun after everything that had been going on this Term.

"So what you wanna do?"

All the sudden BAM!Torin was there. Woot! The party could start now that the Oompa Loompas had come out to play. It was like magic! Snort.

"I was thinking we could watch some Gossip Girl on my laptop and eat junk food and talk. I kinda wanna take it easy with my hurt head and all," Dee answered. She whipped off her backpack and dumped all the junk food out onto the table: it was a fat kid's heaven. But of course TORIN WAS NOT FAT.

Oooh, this sounded like a lot of fun. He really liked these little meetings where they were lazy and watched TV.

"Yeah, let's do that!" he said as he sat on the couch. He reached out and grabbed some of the candy. YUMMY.

Delanie kicked her red-colored sock-covered feet up on the table: Her attire was rather different, for once. Not a lick of pink or glitter in sight. She was snuggled up in black pajamas with images of Bumblebee and Optimus Prime from Transformers all over them. She was dressed like a boy. Her long hair was pulled back into a messy bun at the nape of her neck. Yes, very unusual attire. But she loved her Transformers pjs!

Clicking the laptop on, she pulled up all the seasons of Gossip Girl. Turning to Torin she asked, "Oh dear brother, where on Earth do we start?" She took a bag of cookies off the table, popped open a can of soda and readied herself for an evening of laziness.

Esmerelda entered the common room, tired. She sat down on a couch and pulled out her favorite muggle book to read. A bright light caught her eyes and she looked up to see a girl using a muggle laptop. That's strange, she thought, I thought muggle electronics didn't work in Hogwarts.

Arya studied the girl who seemed overwelmed with studying for her OWLS. Seeing how much it was stressing her she decided for a change in subjects. "So did you go to the sleepover?" Yup, great topic. Sure there were a few bad moments but it was mostly enjoyable.

Ziva thought back to the sleepover, she hadn't done much but sit with Pierre and Cadence and the others by the fire and roast s'more. "Yeah. I looked for you, but I never did find you." Ziva told her, it was half true, she thought about looking for...Arya?...but had never made the actual effort in doing so.

"I was everywhere but not for long, I finally settled at the bedtime story. Lady Lawson did my hair and then we did her's it was fun!"She beamed at the girl remembering the nights events. That had been the highlight of her night.

Ziva nodded her head as the girl talked. "I spent most of the night by the fire with Cadence and Pierre and some of the others." Ziva told her, though she probably had no idea who she was talking about.

Ziva sighed and scratched the kitten behind the ears again. "I'm ready for summer to be here." Ziva concluded out of mid-air. She wanted to be back home in Denmark. And not to forget about that Florida trip with Pierre to the newly bought beach house.

Cadence giggled as Nate carried her into the Common Room. She had been laughing all the way from the Lake, and her side was starting to hurt a bit. Once they were on the inside, she squirmed in his arms. "Okay, okay, let me down..." she said still giggling up at him.

"Fine, fine." he said setting her down on their love seat. "Remember when I sat on the floor and you sat up there the first day we met?" Nate remembered that day like it was yesterday.

Cadence bit her lip and giggled. "Yeah, I remember. I was trying soooo hard to flirt with you. Perhaps I was trying a little too hard?" she asked with another giggle playing with his hand.

"Maybe just a little." he said with a laugh. He remembered thinking she was very... different. Then he got mean and assertive and she ran away. "Then you ran away from me to the lake and told me your life story? But that's what I love about you. Your so open to strangers."

"I ran away?" she asked, trying to remember. She couldn't seem to recall wondering away, but if Nate said she had, then it was probably true. Cadence look away from him and down at her own hands. "I've... changed a lot since then..."

Nate took her hands into his and smiled at her. "Yes. Yes you have. And I'm proud to say I was with you the whole time." he said rubbing his thumb over her knuckle. He was so proud of her changing from her old ways and not listening to people talk trash about her.
