Gryffindors. They were always amusing. It was one of the few things Aspen would miss at Hogwarts - watching them in large numbers, like herds of monkeys in the jungle.

"Have a nice feast. Maybe I'll see you this summer." And with that, Aspen departed the Gryffindor table.
Alice continued staring unblinkingly at Aspen's sunglass'd face, but didn't bother answering to that. Because they both knew she was terrified, and the fourteen year old didn't want her voice coming out all shaky like those baby Hufflepuffs as proof. So she kept her eyes locked on the Odessa's retreating figure until she was far, far away.

And she might have let out the tiniest of shudders as she pulled herself back on her seat. The next time she had one of these talks with an older sister, could it be Vivi, please?

Text Cut: SELINA. All three of 'em.

Oh food? Yeah, she wasn't really hungry. The feast was more for saying goodbye anyway, so she shrugged it off and said, "That's fine, I'm just kind of getting cozy. I'm in no rush for food." Alice and Penelope could worry for her about the rate that the food came if they were so concerned with eating. And she knew that those two girls could really pack it in.

...

And nice moment GONE. qihwjidhofudighdfipfrhigfbdsnadke;hjfi! FRANK WAS A CHOCOLATE FROG! NO, NO, NO! He could not come! Did she want to kill her? CHOCOLATE FROGS WERE EVIL AND THEY WERE OUT TO GET HER. Yes, even Alice's chocolate frog. Huh. Maybe THAT was why Frank had found Alice. He was trying to get close to Selina so that he could attack her. THAT EVIL, MANIPULATIVE FROG. Oh yes, she was onto him.

Raising her eyebrow with some panic in her eyes, she said, "No. He'll try and hurt me. I know it."

Yeah, good word.

So she just watched out of the corner of her eye and kept her ears open for screams. That would be a good tell that something was wrong, obviously.

That was her Biter and she did not appreciate people touching her Alice. No one needed to touch her... no one needed to look at her... no one needed to even be in her breathing zone. Or else things were going to get very... heated.

So yes, Aspen Odessa. Eyes for you. Let the Biter go and no one had to get hurt. And that was not so much a threat, but a promise.

And just as she was about to lunge for her Biter, Odessa set the girl down and Selina unclenched her fists. As she walked away, Selina narrowed her eyes at the girl. Yep, it was decided. Until Alice was SAFE and off of the train she was not letting the girl out of her sight. Aspen was far too unpredictable for that... honestly... the girl was lethal.


WHERE had the Head Girl been, exactly, while she was being assaulted? Hmm? That was what Alice wanted to know, but she didn't ask, because she was supposed to be not needing Selina from that moment onward. "I'M in a rush for food." Did her voice sound terrified, still? "Can we get a move on it, please?" This was supposed to be a feast. Her tummy would start growling soon, 'cause she'd barely eaten any lunch at all, saving all her room for supper.

"Don't panic. He's a piece of candy, Selina. He's not gonna do anything to you." She wasn't sure exactly what to make of the older girl's irrational fear yet, but she had to get over it SOMETIME. Didn't she?

That was some rumor people made up - she was not believing it for a second. "I'm coming, I'm coming," Melanie called back to Alice, getting up from her seat and walking over and sitting across from Alice. She gave a smile to the other badge holders, Alice was sitting with and readjusted her tie.

Helping Alice pack? Did no one finish packing yet? Was she the only one who did? "Of course I'll help you pack. You can't go home if you don't finish," Melanie pointed out. Well, she probably could go home without packing but then Alice would be missing a lot of things when she did arrive home. That was probably a big no-no or something. "So, excited for summer?" she asked.

Because really, who wasn't?!


And now there was a Melanie in front of her, and that was nice. "It'll be real easy. I've just got to stuff some more things inside my trunk and then sit on them and then close the thing and then go home." She had it all under control. And then some things, the ones that wouldn't fit, would have to be carried. Like boxes that she wasn't letting out of her sight.

"Summer. Right." What about it? "I'm going to live with Selina and Vivi for a month. I'm getting ice cream with Lex. Dora and I are going to do stuff, go to a concert or see a Quidditch match or something." And she was meeting up with some other people, too, but it wasn't necessary to mention. "And you're going to floo over sometime, right? So I can see you?" Because if she was all the way in America for the whole summer, that would be awfully depressing. There were some things owling didn't cover.

"Right...why didn't you stupefy him? It might have made your work easier...that way you could have probably just levitated him down here." That seemed even more legit and would have saved on the energy she'd need to get her through the feast. They both knew it would drag on. "I'm getting hungry too--hey you want a cauldron cake? I think I have two more?" In case the girl didn't want to wait for the food.

She blinked at that method. It actually sounded brilliant. "And you get everything to fit, yes? I should give that a shot...but if it doesn't work can you stuff mine for me?" The girl probably had a full proof method by now. Alice being able to do it was enough, she wouldn't have to do a thing.


"That seems awfully harsh, don't you think? 'Sides, I got him down here without knocking him out or anything, so we're okay." She gave Jake another nudge in the ribs, just to remind him to DO SOMETHING, and then turned back to Lex. "You have food?" Alice glanced over the Headmistress, willing her to give her speech already. Hungry children over here, didn't she know?

Packing. "I can help you with it. It can be my birthday present to you." 'Cause Lex's birthday was soon- 16th of June, to be precise, she KNEW- and everyone would be getting her candy, so this could be her present. Stuffing her trunk. What Alice didn't mention was the fact that she had been planning on helping Lex anyways, so she just got a present out of the way. For free, too.

I'm sure we'll figure out some way to manage." Somehow. Might have to skip second breakfast to make room for the extra food. Maybe. Or her stomach would just have to get bigger. One or the other.[/color]
"I bet we can find another person to help us inhale the kitchens, don't worry." Alice was pretty sure no one in the school, apart from Selina, could eat more than them, so they had everything covered. "The more Quidditch we play, the hungrier we'll be. Extra practice?" Just for them, her and her Seeker. Training, too. 'Cause they were going to be amazing, obviously. Even more awesome than they had been this year. She knew it.
