To be honest now that he thought of it that sounded a lot mor confusing then he thought it would be. Oh well. Try, try, and try again that's all you can really say to that.
Ella listened to Nate and nodded her head, understanding completely.
"Yeah...I guess I have mixed feelings about summer as well" Because Hogwarts was home too, yeah? It always felt a bit weird being at one and knowing the other one was so far away.
"Well I'm sure lots of us will be around Diagon Alley this summer, there's lots to do there." And ice cream was there! Helloooooo! What more did you need?
SPOILER!!: Bliss!

That's good," she said and bit her lip, "I know what you mean, I'm going to miss everyone that's leaving for good, like Kurumi," she said, blinking back tears.
WOW, Bliss was a roller-coaster of emotions today. She kept going from super happy to utterly sad in a matter of seconds and it was only because she was affected by everyone else's moods and they changed so often. "I'm alright...I think," she confirmed finally and nodded. She knew that if she needed anyone, Ella was there. Plus, she was there for Ella too!
Oh gosh, this whole mixed emotions thing wasn't so fun. Ella hated being so sad inside and then trying to be happy for the sake of others. It gave the fourteen year old such a massive headache. She returned Bliss's smile though, mostly because the younger badger looked like she was having quite a tough time.
"Yeah I...I'll miss them too. Max? He's the um...the keeper from Ravenclaw...well he's pretty much a brother to me and..." WIBBLE.
"It's going to be okay though, yeah? I...they'll keep in touch." And truthfully she was trying to convince herself of that just as much as she was trying to convince Bliss.
"Yeah? Well...just in case." And Ella leaned forward, giving her friend a hug. Those always seemed to help, hugs. Oh! And Bliss got another smile too cause those seemed to help as well.
SPOILER!!: Uncle Messy!

Disappeared? At least they didn't think he's dead or something. "I'm sorry about that. But I'm here now." GRINS. "And I'm not planning to disappear again anytime soon." Yes, well he'll try not too at least. "I missed you guys too." Like A LOT. "Anything exciting happen to you this term that you want to share with your Uncle Messer?" Because he kinda missed a lot of interesting things this term.
Ella smiled as her favorite Uncle Messy hugged her back, giving him a small squeeze before letting go. Truthfully the girl was just glad to see that he was alive and well!
...Even if he wasn't wearing pink. "It's alright...erm well it's not but...just don't disappear again without telling someone!" Cause really, they'd been quite worried! Ella didn't want to have to go all Ellasaurus Rex on her Uncle!
"You did?" BEAM! It was nice being missed by people, it made Ella feel quite special. Hmm....anything else happen this term? Ella tried not to look at certain people as she thought about lots of confusing things that had gone down this term. Oh! But she could tell Messy about...
"I was fwoopered! I mean...it was quite funny, actually. Sophie and Oakey were too." Heh. And look how that turned out!
SPOILER!!: Hulk!

.. Why was Ella looking at her funny? Had she seen that sly dart that Alice's eyes had made from Ella's face to Alec's? Had she noticed what she was thinking? No? Good. "IT IS. I'm.. I'm all sad.. because.. Kurumi.." She tried to swallow the giant lump that had built up in her throat, and did not succeed. It was too painful to talk about.
"Mhm." Nod. And cue faint proud grin at the Hulk. Oh! And she wanted to her Ella's best insult? Sheesh...no pressure or anything. Detective Dino furrowed her brow and tried to look all meany-ish as she thought up the best most insulting insult she could think of.
"Y-you...oh" And she pointed her finger at her friend for emphasis.
"You slimy...erm stinky...s...sea serpent!" Ohhh yeah! She just said that. Mhm!
"Thanks Hulk, I um...I know you do." And Ellasaurus forgot all about being a meany and pulled her favorite green monster in for a super hug.
Oh....Poor Alice. Ella's chin wobbled a bit at the thought of Kurumi leaving and the small blonde looked at her friend, nodding.
"I know...I'll really m-miss her too." WIBBLE.
"She won't forget us though, Hulk...We're planning her wedding, after all." That was kind of a given, yeah?
SPOILER!!: Belle!

It was true. They were her second family. She loved going into the stable and taking care of them. Belle beamed when Ella said that she would love to come and visit! "Great! I will need your address too to send owl post to you! I wanna keep in contact this summer!"
A farm! Like...how cool was that? At least it seemed extremely cool to Ella.
"That's just...brilliant, Belle! I wish my Gran had a farm!" And that meant Ella would have one too since she lived with Gran...but still!
"Bonding with the animals sounds so awesome! I...which ones are your favorites?" Even though it was probably hard to pick, right? Oh! And she wanted to keep in touch as well? Ella GRINNED at the older girl, nodding.
"I'll write it down for you when we get back to the common room?" She assured her friend, making a note to ask Belle for her information as well.
SPOILER!!: Soph!

Sophie exclaimed, raising her eyebrows and grinning. The third year had no idea what it was about, but it would certainly be fun! "And we can also plan a couple of things to do together!" She added gesturing towards some people that were at the table, including Carigan, Laura and welp, now Oakey! "You can even see if Harvey wants to come to!" That would be greeeat, wouldn't it!! It woould!
"Good, I'm glad!" Ella was always excited to hang with Sophie! The two had a lot of catching up to do in order to make up for last summer's fiasco. Meh. There was no way anything like that was ever happening again.
"Yes! We'll have to get together as a group a couple of times if we can! It's always fun when we'r all hanging out!" And perhaps they could have another pillow fight? Giggle. No hair whipping this time, though. She BEAMED at her friend when she suggested Harvey come along, nodding.
"I...yeah, that'd be great! I think he'd really like that." And so would Ella.
SPOILER!!: Laura!

"Yeah that will be fun, I'm going to get you next term in the dorm with a pillow just you wait and see." Laura giggled. "Well thirty is ancient to me you know." Laura giggled, sixty to her was prehistoric but she wasn't telling Ella that.
Ella turned a bit pink at the compliment and shrugged.
"I'm not that awesome, Laura...but...but thanks." Grin.
"You're awesome too, y'know!" Just in case she was wondering or something. Oh! And a challenge? Ella raised her eyebrows at her friend.
"I don't think so...we both know who the best pillow fighter is." Giggle.
"Is it? Well...for your thirtieth birthday I'll have to get you a cane or something then." Heheh!
SPOILER!!: Pao!

And Pao did love his sweets, he did!
Did she not know his back story? It was possible. He hadn't liked to tell tons of people at the beginning of the year, if only because he wanted people to get to know him first. "Professor Hadley," he said, nodding up toward the staff table, "is my aunt. I'm only here because of her. This Hogwarts thing was originally supposed to be a one-year deal." So there, now another person knew.
Ella frowned a bit when Pao explained his situation back in Sicily. It did sound like he'd be quite lonely and Ella didn't like the thought of that.
"Well...we could owl back and forth, if you wanted!" She offered with a smile.
"Oh...or if you get a chance to come and visit at all during the summer break we could get ice cream!" Though he'd probably be spending all his time in Sicily, yeah?
Oh yeah! Ella had thought she'd heard Pao call Professor Hadley, auntie, before.
"Yeah I...think I might have known that." Shrug. She couldn't really be sure where she'd heard it. Wait...WHAT?! A one year deal? But that meant...and he couldn't...and they needed...BLINK.
"But Pao, you have to come back!" Because he was a badger and they were all family!
"What I mean to say is that we'll all really miss you if you don't and...and you kind of belong here, yeah?" With his friends and housemates and playing Quidditch! At least that's how Ella saw it.
SPOILER!!: Minnie!

Ella and her had become close quickly and Min was so great full for that. She helped so much when Min's parents had passed and with each transition Min has had since then. "You know we have so many more adventures in the next few years, and a few more cups to win." She grinned knowing Ella was so much like her and would want those cups even more now.
"Well that is nice he is giving you space. I have been keeping a close eye on him lately. I think I make him nervous, which I should.. He is not going to step out of line while I'm around." She giggled, Harvey had always been a little fearful of Min and her wand. "I still think he would look good with a pink dress and a pink Mohawk." She looked to the claw table for a moment remembering her first feast how they sat close because they didn't know anyone else. "Well I know he will have to come over sooner or later, he couldn't handle not being with puffs at a feast." Thinking about summer Minerva smiled, "Maybe we could get Oakey and Sophie to hangout as well. We could maybe do ice cream." She knew Ella liked ice cream so that would be a good option for the summer.
Ella smiled at Minnie, nodding her head.
"Yeah, I can't imagine that either, Minnie." Minnie had made Ella feel at home immediately during her first year and she was quite glad they were friends.
"I...you're right! We have a lot to look forward too!" Oh! And the cup talk? And made Ella GRIN at her friend. Minnie was a hard worker and Ella always admired that about the girl.
"I'm up for it if you are." Mhm! Cause they were a team.
"Yeah I...figured he might need some and I do too. I'm just kind of sad about people leaving and he knows I want to say some goodbyes." But she hoped he wouldn't stay away the whole feast cause he could use some Harvey hugs, those always helped. The blonde laughed when Minnie said she thought Harvey was a bit nervous because of her lately.
"I um...I appreciate you looking out for me but I think...well I don't think that'll happen again." And honestly, she really didn't want to think about what happened cause it only made her feel upset.
"I think Harvey could rock the pink mohawk but the dress? ..Not so much." Grin. And an ice cream triple date? Ella smiled at the idea of this.
"I really like that idea! Good thinking." SPOILER!!: Violet!

She smiled softly.
Violet smiled brighter when Ella had said her party was going to be excellent. OH but Ella will be able to see how brilliant this party was going to be, as well as the other people she had sent her invites out to! Violet gasped and giggled eagerly when Ella had reacted the way she thought she would by pulling her into a hug after telling about the tea party that they would be having AGAIN! Then Violet was a little baffled when Ella would even think for a moment that she wouldn't see Violet over the summer! Which was why she answered back, "Of course you're going to see me over the summer! More than once for a tea party I hope Elly Bean!" She smiled at the younger Puff!
Mhm, Ella couldn't really be blamed for her mixed feels. It happened every year around this time and there just wasn't any way around it.
"I...I know it just feels different but they're all great and um...I know they'll be there for me." As for Violet being there for her too, Ella BEAMED at the older girl and gave her a hug.
"Thanks Violet, same goes for me too." She'd always be there for Violet whenever she needed her!
GRINNN! Ella was quite excited about the idea of tea parties over the summer! As in....more than one! BEAM!
"I'm really happy about this, Violet! We'll have the fanciest tea parties anyone has ever seen!" And they could dress up and be fancy and silly and just EEP! The small blonde was eager for this to happen.
SPOILER!!: Harvs!

He didnt care anymore.. he didnt want to stay away from this table in fear just cause they were a little upset with him.. PLUS his girlfriend and best friend were on this table. So he had two big reasons to be here, even those other little reasons of disliking him a little wasnt gonna stop him from coming here now. He arrived at the table and looked around, yup the table hadnt changed one bit!! It was as it always had been since he had started sitting here in his first year.
Harvey? Grin. Ella turned around and smiled at her boyfriend, standing to give him a hug.
"Hey, Minnie and I were just talking about you." She wondered if he'd heard what they'd said about the pink mohawk and dress but decided not to bring it up. Heh.
"Are you enjoying the feast so far? I'm...starving." And still a bit sad but that feeling was coming and going as it had been for the last couple of days.
"Well come on, come sit with us...we can make room." And the fourteen year old planted a kiss on his cheek before pulling him over so he could sit beside her.
