Text Cut: People

Seeing as no one else came, Cosgrach turned to the group there and clapped his hand once to draw their attention.

"Alright everyone, first, thank you for coming. I'll make sure to tell our groundskeeper your names so that he'll know who to thank to." Ehehe. His voice was slightly raised for everyone to hear. "So, I thought that we can divide into three groups: first one: the stone carriers and fire-pit makers, second one: wooden plank carriers and third one: porch builders." How did that sound? Did anyone else have a better idea? He was all ears.

"I have a plan of how to build it," he went on after a short pause, "and I'll assist you during the process. Those who haven't drank their potions yet - do now. Those that have already done that - pick your group and start building. I think we can build the porch here," he showed the general area at the back of the hut, "and the fire pit here." He showed the area at the right side of the hut. "I think the bags there have all the equipment you might need. If anyone has any questions, I'm here. Let's get this started!"

OOC: As I've already said, you need three posts doing building stuff (so drinking and RPing the effects of the potion does not count) for full credit. There is no maximum limit of posting, but there can only be so many stones and planks to be carried, so please keep IC reality in mind with post number too.

You can switch groups, you don't have to stick to just one.

The carriers don't really need my directions, but it'd be nice if the porch builders followed Cosgrach as he has a... radical design in mind.

It'd be helpful for everyone if you titled your post with the group.

You can join on the last day too - basically, anytime that suits you until 3rd of June, 23.59 GMT+1/19.59 EST+1.

The grading will be based on creativity. You are allowed to 'prank' your friends and stuff (*insert cool ideas here*) so that it's not a dull RP. But severe pranks IC will have IC consequences.

I'll update the first post of this thread with the progress of the groups.

Lastly, I will post again tomorrow around this time. As it'll take me a day to post again, the builders may also begin 'building' as they wish.

If you have any questions, PM away!

SPOILER!!: Kyroh

He hoped? Of course it will be super cool! The Slytherin hoped that the Groundskeeper would love their surprise. What if the big guy got disappointed and started eating them for lunch? Yikes.

The Slytherin got the small jar containing his Strength Potion out of his pocket and drank it in one go. He stayed on his skateboard as he listened to the professors instruction and took mental notes on what to do. The first step's easy...choosing a group. Hmm. Plank Group sounds good.

Ethan stood up from his skateboard as soon as he felt refreshed, picked up his toy and boarded it up on the nearest wall and made his way towards another small Ravenclaw. A boy this time. Smiles and a wave for this cool dude! And just like what the professor said... "I'll let you try it out after we're done here, okay?" Ethan's not the stingy type. He's cool with sharing his stuff, since he doesn't get to do it all the time back home.

Now for the activity. Planks! Yes. He'll join that group. Ethan waved at another Ravenclaw girl who was already carrying a plank. The Slytherin gave her a thumbs up and carried on towards the pile of wood and got himself a piece. He lifted it without difficulty and returned to the group with a goofy kind of smug smile on his face. Ethan lifted the plank up with right, twirled it with his hand, tossed it in the air, and caught it again with his left hand this time. "This...is so cool." Pleased with himself, he balanced the plank with his finger as he made his toward the Builders Group. "Here you go, guys!" Well away from the group and from anyone, Ethan let the plank tilt and eventually fall from his finger. "Timberrrrrrrrr..." Plonk.

Grinning, Ethan gave the group a salute and got back to the pile of wood for another piece.

Text Cut: People Ethan! "Hello, son!" Beam. And - awww, he thought this was going to be soooo cool! *"Well, I hope."* The professor laughed dramatically. "Is he? How cool! And luckily, I have a floor plan, but we will be glad for any help you can offer." Hehe. Cosgrach nodded to everyone that arrived and smiled. "Hello, welcome." Hi. Thanks for coming. Heh. "Hello, sweet first year." Ooops he didn't know her name sorry. But - what she said next - Cosgrach frowned, then nodded. Although he was sure Orsino made it sound like he was joking, it was probably true - he... well, he wasn't the brightest man, and those muscles had always seemed a bit suspicious to Cosgrach. "I appreciate your bravery, kid," he said in a serious tone, "and we'll build the fire pit so that he actually eats some proper meat." Ooooh, the brilliant girl was Jasmine Guidry, a French, probably. "I'm glad you've enjoyed it and are excited for this Miss Guidry." Ehehe, as he was! *"I think you're from France?"* Pronouncing that in a perfect Parisien accent - ehehe. "Glad to see you here." Oh! Hey new boy! "Hi! Perfect!" They needed lots of help today. This sounded great. Hehe. ...what was this one doing here? Cosgrach eyed him suspiciously and his expression didn't change even when the boy greeted him. He only muttered a "Hello," back and listened to what he had to say. ...oh... was that a 'thank you'? "You're, ahem, welcome." He didn't SMILE, but he wasn't hostile either. "How can't I be?" he replied with a small chuckle, *"it's a beautiful day and I'm sure* Orsino will love it." "Kyroh, son! Hello!" Exciiiiteeeed, yessss! Could he try? Before Ethan answered, Cosgrach interfered: "Later. We will begin shortly." Well? Wouldn't she speak? Oh well. Cosgrach didn't insist, as they had to begin soon anyway. "The famous Cassia I've heard so much about, hello!" he greeted the girl a bit dramatically, but hey! She deserved it. "It's good to see you." And he meant it. Not everyone was Alexa's best friend, after all. Seeing as no one else came, Cosgrach turned to the group there and clapped his hand once to draw their attention.

Running over to the group of kids, Kyroh flashed a smile at the Professor. "Hi Sir!" And look others! Boddie and Candice and HIIIII! Kyroh waved! There were others too. Hi other kids! ..Skateboard?
