SPOILER!!: Jasmine

Then Lex went on to explain the dementor situation. It seemed like Hogwarts had a history of.........unusual happenings and they were right in the middle of another one. When she said that they lost the groundskeeper, Jasmine's eyes got big. She was almost afraid to ask, but she did it anyway. "Did the dementors get the groundskeeper?, Jasmine asked. She was deciding whether he should be horrified or not.

Lex didn't question her too deeply about her whereabouts and for that Jasmine was grateful. She was sure that she did not want to jear the details of her love life or lack thereof. Jasmine almost chuckled when Lex asked if she danced for an audience. "I used to. I took classes and we always had recitals and performances. Lately though, I've pretty much been dancing for myself."

Jasmine could imagine that taking care of a pet could be a full time job. She knew that they could be like children sometimes, at least that's how it was with her dog. Then Lex mentioned nonverbal spells. Now that was something that Jasmine was very interested in. "I've been working on nonverbal spells a bit too. I've had a little success, but my results have been very inconsistent. You definitely have a big advantage if you can pull it off." That reminded Jasmine that she should go back to the dueling arena and go a few rounds with the dummies.

After Jasmine received her letter, Lex asked her about it. "It was a note from Professor Domingo. I gave her a Valentine's Day card and she was thanking me. That was nice of her." Then suddenly wondering, Jasmine asked Lex, "Who did you give your card to?"

Whales? Was that what they called them? Interesting. "A muggle friend of mine went there before, he went on and on about the creatures, showed me pictures too." For all the good that did. The pictures didn't even move. How did one enjoy pictures that didn't move? Surely the moment wasn't still captured. "I dunno if Lottie's ever been though so I'll have to ask her about that too." The trip sounded more exciting with every new thing added!

There was some reluctance in the question Lex could see but Ravenclaws were a curious bunch so she hadn't expected that to be what made Jasmine change her mind about asking. The Gryffindor gave a small nod as she swallowed the piece of her sandwich she'd just done chewing. "Yeah...nearly got us all actually. We'd been having an ice-cream party of sorts in the Great Hall and a whole hoard of them swooped in sucking. The Profossors got us out but Mr. Firth was a bit too Gryffindor and took dive for Professor Knox." Shame too because she was positive the woman wouldn't have done the same.

"Yeah?" Lex asked, concerning her dancing for herself when she was accustomed to audiences and the like. "You mind me coming to watch sometime? Felix and I could go for a show." And a glance down at the feline for his confirmation on the matter. If he would sit still long enough he'd likely enjoy it too.

And here she found herself nodding...a lot. "It's the best advantage when they can't hear it. I'd been working at them for a while but had to give it up last term because of some aging disease that left me tired and I'd only just started back. So far I like what I see though I'll admit my silent Levicorpus could use some work." Or maybe not. It'd knock Louis out cold when she dropped him on his head so maybe it was fine afterall and it wasn't like the Professors present had any protest. They must have thought it was well cast too...or were too shocked that she'd actually done that to her Co-Prefect. Meh.

Lex found her nose wrinkling involuntarily at the mention of the valentine cards. "Oh. That." She gave a nonchalant shrug. "Bellaire. She was the first Professor I ran into so I figured why not." Wasn't like she'd taken the homework seriously. It wasn't REAL.
