At long last he finally caught eyes with a bright red head asking why there weren't any bare chest lion mascot. "There's a naked mascot?" Tag asked as he came face to face with Selina.
There hadn't been any pep rally last term, right? Oh well, if there was Tag was probably pigging out in the kitchen. But this seemed like fun though. An receiving cookies was an extra too. Quote:

He did, however, paint his torso in his house colors. Half gold, half red. In place of a shirt. Ya know, since he didn't have a Gryffindor or Gryffindor-like shirt. Paint was the only acceptable replacement.
"WOOOOO!" he cheered again as he ran up the stands to the group of red-and-gold clad students. "YEAH!"
He could so be a cheerleader. If this Quidditch thing didn't work out for him... Quote:

Entering the stands, she quickly spotted Selina and Tag, so she walked over to them...and heard something about a bare chested/naked mascot? And THAT was when she spotted Jake. "Found him," she said, smirking. Quote:

Andddd... of course there was a crazy shirtless guy. That seemed more like a pep rally that she was expecting.
...  That was her half dressed man. "You know... you could have just transfigured a shirt a different color if you didn't have red." But nope. He had to be a guy. Unless... he did it on purpose... in which case... Anya needed to rethink some things.
She casually stepped in front of him, because, you know, eyes to yourselves ladies.
Oh. And there were other people too. "Capt'n. Gideon. Taggie. Penne." she said with a smile nodding to each of them. Quote:

Then she went: "In Hogwarts, mighty Hogwarts, the lions roar tonight" Quote:

She laid out one before her... the back looked really nice.. . She looked down at the front of it.. it was OKAY:
"Lions... do you want a TSHIRT?" she said. Not waiting for a reply she gave one to Gideon, Selina, Anya, Ira, Penelope, Jake (Sarah had never formally met him), Tag, and another boy and a girl (IbeJen and Landon) Quote:

Nope, the carefully iced red and gold cookies were in a box that she had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on so she could fit them all in.
As for the other, erm, cookie... *THUD THUD THUD THUD*
Kurumi wobbled in her yellow boots as she made her way over to the rest of her house followed by a larger than life size lion cookie. Selina HAD said big... and this lion cookie put some of those balloons you saw in nonmagical parades to shame. The charms on the cookie were nothing special really. Kurumi had witnessed them as a first year when Cam had performed them at the opening feast on her normal sized lion cookies. Waving her wand a bit to help the giant beast along as it continued to stomp its way, Kurumi wished she had had time to make he be able to roar properly. As it was now, it just pawed at the air occasionally and was able to walk around on command. *STOMP STOMP STOMP*
By the time Kurumi had arrived her giant cookie's roaring wasn't really needed as the rest of her house was roaring away - not that the added effect wouldn't be appreciated.
Weaving her way through everyone, Kurumi managed to find her way beside Selina and handed her the box of cookies. " Alright, captain...I'm here...and I brought a friend."
Cue a MASSIVE pawing at the air from the giant cookie. Quote:

All she could think about was yelling at all the Gryffindor boys to show their pride in a similar fashion as a few years ago when Carter was Captain. That was an AWESOME Pep Rally. She missed a lot of the people on that team. Especially since, back in the day, it was mostly boys on the team, which always made for a fun time.
So brushing aside what he said, she merely chuckled, "November or not... house pride is forever." In her crazed state of mind, she supposed that her logic made sense. To the average person what she was suggesting was downright ludicrous. The sixth year was just not the most stable person in the world, especially when it came to house support. Selina really was the unofficial mascot for Gryffindor. And it was something that she was rather proud of to be honest.
Then she saw all of her little lions make their way onto the field. She grinned and nodded to each of them as they showed up, "Hey Taggle, Alice, Jake, Penelope, Anya, Ira." That seemed like MOST of the little lions. Although, out of the corner of her eye, she did see Landon and Melanie talking. She waved at them as well, "Hey Melanie, Landon." It seemed like a majority of her team was here, which made her happy. The only one she saw who was missing was Dylan, the ickle first year. Where was he?
Then, she heard all of the ickle lions talking about a shirtless mascot. She smiled at the memory and paused to explain, "Back when Anya's brother was Captain, we had a pep rally. All of the boys on the team, per me and Kurumi's request, went to the pep rally shirtless and we painted their chests red and gold. It was awesome. But me and Kurumi dressed up Gideon in a tail and some cub ears. So he was the shirtless mascot." Just so all of them knew why she was talking about that. It was sort of a random thing to be a continuous part of conversation, so she was just setting the record straight now.
However, she started to hear a very loud thud as all of the Gryffindors, including the adorable one who was handing out the t-shirts, started to mingle amongst themselves. But Selina blatantly ignored ALL of them because Kurumi had arrived. And as much as she loved her best friend, she was more interested in WHAT her best friend had arrived with. It was magical, it was huge, it was A COOKIE!!!!
AHHHHHHHH IT WAS A LIFE SIZED GIANT LION COOKIE THAT MOVED. HOW DID SHE BLOODY DO THAT?!
Selina ran at Kurumi and excitedly embraced the cookie. As she hugged it, she lifted her head away and smiled at Kurumi, "It's perfect. It's so, so, so very perfect." As she snuggled her head back into the cookie, she, in a muffled voice, muttered, "By the way, hi there."
After a few moments, Selina finally pulled away from the huge cookie and gave it one more smile. It was perfect. Just so perfect.
But she had work to do. She ran up the steps so she was overlooking all of the Gryffindors. The redhead pulled out her wand and waved it so a LOUD SONG PUMPED THROUGH THE STADIUM!
She pumped her fist in the air and yelled, "WHO ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?" WHO WERE THEY FIGHTING FOR, LIONS???? Quote:

Yay KURUMI-WAS-HERE! Sarah grinned and was about to hand a t-shirt when she realized that... Kurumi had brought a YUM friend.. and it moved... Sarah hoped it did not crumble... "Hello - Howdya do that?" Sarah asked the older girl in awe... she always knew her prefect was AWESOME!!
Anyway Sarah was still handing out Tshirt and handed one to Kurumi, "you can wear it if you want..." and she got another one, "does the mascot want one too? He can have one with pleasure!" not waking for an answer, Sarah gave noth of them to Kurumi. Anyway Sarah had lots more... SPOILER!!: fanficfanatict

Then Selina told them what had happened a all those years ago... that was hilarious. Yet it was so ukurumi ike to do such a thing anyway. Sarah got
into the vibe. Was it a trick question or what? obviously lions.. they were the top of the food chain after all! She she yelled " GRYFFINDOR -ROAR,ROAR,ROAR!" And she waved her arms in the air... she was on a mission... Quote:

He gave up quickly, though, and just turned to Selina with a grin on his face. "Hey, Captain. How're you?"
And then, "Hey, Anya," he said automatically as his girlfriend joined them. "Um." Transfigured a shirt color? "I... don't know how." He had learned how to transfigure a shirt in class... but change the color? No. Jake watched as Anya stepped in front of him, clearly trying to cover up his masterfully painted abs. Psh. "I'm perfectly decent, ya know," he said, putting his hands on her shoulders and stepping slightly to the side so she wasn't in front of him, and crossing his arms. Decent, yes. Warm? Definitely not. He hadn't thought about how cold it would be to go without a shirt. But... oh well. There were plenty of things to keep his mind off the cold.
Such as a giant lion... cookie.
Jake just stared at the thing as he watched the Prefect walk over. That was a cookie. "Did you make that?" Sweet Merlin, that was amazing. Could they eat it? It was probably enough cookie to feed the whole of Gryffindor house...
Selina could say what she wanted, that wasn't going to get Gideon to take off his shirt. He was already being outside his usual quieter self he couldn't push it. Besides he had been wrangled the last time around, gouded by friend, girlfriend and finally captain alike. Not to mention the peer pressure from the older boys.
Gideon hadn't seen Tag approach, but he surely turned when the second year spoke up announcing his presence. Of course he had to have heard Selina's comment. Cue a certain prefect having to fight the urge to blush at the memory. "Nae...there isn't," he remarked, shooting a look at Selina when she explained the story.
Probably a good thing certain people weren't around to hear and tease him to no end about it.
However who was around was Jake aka Anya's boyfriend. Not a totally comfortable subject with Gideon. It reminded him too much that Kacie was of that same age and he really wasn't in the mood to beat off boys from her OR Carter's sister as he felt somewhat protective of her as well. The younger boy in question was doing a reproduction of the previous pep rally...chest painted and all.
Aye...let the younger lions have their fun.
First Penelope and Anya later arrived adding to their mix. "Hey Guys," Gideon greeted having finally recovered his voice...and his relative dignity. What? The older lion was far more dignified nowadays and would rather not be put in that situation at the moment. He smiled as Sarah was heard yelling over the din. Taking the offered shirt with a polite but quiet "Thank you," the prefect looked it over, spotting his great aunt amongst the names and couldn't help put chuckle at the last line. "Very nice."
Then there was stomping to be heard and one might have thought it was a whole bunch of students simply making noise. However as his fellow prefect made her appearance in the Gryffindor stands all nearby learned where the sound was coming from. One very large...very moving lion COOKIE!!
"Well I think ye may have outdid yerself this time, Kurumi," he remarked chuckling at his friend. Selina had to be in her element. Speaking of which one moment he had heard her react to her best friend and the next minute she seemed to have disappeared. It was when loud music sounded that he found her, obviously the instigator of the Gryffindor cry.
"GRYFFINDOR!!!!"
