SPOILER!!: Lex

The look in her eyes was all the confirmation Lex needed that she'd gotten Aubrey under her services for next year but you know...her confirmation was good too. "That's the idea. Not sure what I'll do just yet but I've got the whole summer to really think about it." Not that she'd waste away her summer on Hogwarts matters but a few thoughts here and there wouldn't hurt anyone. "Whatever it is, you're right about it being epic." Lex did nothing but that. Had to be epic or it wasn't her style.

Lex supposed she could understand the idea behind being eager to come back, afterall her first year left her dying for September, but that was totally because of the man eating plant. That term had been amazing, and quite the adventure at that. "Nah, not usually unless something goes wrong like that term with the Dementors. Usually we have normal weather and something a bit more dangerous than snow." Snow which totally put her off winters officially might we add. Good thing she'd be of age by the time the next one rolled around, heating charms would be in order.


Oh yeah, oh yeah... next term was going to be epic. "I'll think of some really cool stuff too." She did have all summer to come up with something that would blow everyone's minds. "Maybe take a stroll through the joke shop." That place was downright inspirational. Could something that the lions be anything other than epic? AJ seriously doubted that. "Have no fear Lex, you are going out in style."

A dementor? "What's a dem.." What did she call it again? More dangerous than snow? Well, snow wasn't that dangerous, but AJ was getting the vibe that things always went bump in the night at Hogwarts. "I hope next years event is even cooler." Maybe she could go on a real live adventurous hunt next year. Something that would be more eventful than hunting down a bloody blanket. Oh look, the food was here, and AJ's concentration went out the window.

SPOILER!!: Benny, Adi & Ian

They hadn't even been able to walk outside much less ski.

He raised an eyebrow at the comment about his plans for the summer being cool. If she said so. They would just have to wait to see if either of their plans ultimately turned into something cool...or fun. Either way it was going to be outside of school grounds and hopefully with normal summer weather conditions. That was good enough for the elder lion.

Benjamin had been trying to ignore the other two friends at the table, at least at first but his companion called out to them once more, drawing his attention back. Adi answered neutrally but the glance meant something more. And at AJ's answer to Angel's question on their topic of discussion, he could feel color raise at the tips of his ears. Certainly there could be other topics that might interest the two friends instead of him and Angel.

He didn't catch the invitation to join them because thankfully the headmistress stood up to give her speech. Benny clapped at the mention of Gryffindor's win, but the end of her words had enticed more happiness from the table. Foooood[/COLOR].

He wondered what she would think of him if she ever figured it out. Meh. He would worry about that later. Eh? Something on her face? Uhhh. "No, you don't.'' Adi looked away. Too much staring, buddy.

"I might have,''
Adi said, laughing. "Her subject's rubbish but I think she's cool. Especially when she gave us cookies and hot chocolate.'' Who would have thought oe of his favourite Professors would be the Divination one?

Adi grabbed AJ's elbow after she poked it in his ribs. "See? You are.'' But he was laughing. He squeezed her elbow before releasing it. He turned back to Ian. "So Ian. You a member of Valentine House?'' And did his Puffer buddy look distracted? "What are you thinking?''

The third year watched Benny's ears go red. The Poor Dragon. Would he never get used to all this teasing? Ohhh! Finally, the Head was making her speech! That meant...it was food time!

He shrugged and told Adi. Nothing much. Just thinking about missed opportunities this year. It seems I was trying all year to catch up and I didn't really get the chance to spend with you guys I had hoped to.

He did have a point there. ”Maybe with magical things, but in life, I win.” Because apparently everything was a completion with her. If it wasn’t for Adi, she was sure that she would have been struggling with all of her lessons. AJ would give him that. When it came to their awesome personalities, well that was all AJ. ”You’re going to still help me out next year, right? She assumed that she would a bit better having already had a year under her wing, but magic was legit hard. Oh good, she didn’t have anything on her face. She was beginning to wonder. ”I hope you’d tell me if I ever did.” AJ said as she tried to make light of the situation. She wasn’t sure what, if anything, was going on, but she was sure that she didn’t want anything getting weird.

”Oh yeah, she is totally cool. I like her a lot too.” AJ wasn’t sure if she believe it what she taught, but her lessons were easy and fun, and that was all that really mattered to her in the long run. It was nice to have one class that you didn’t struggle in.

Maybe AJ literally was a pain, she was forever jabbing at him. She laughed with him, and flashed him a smile when he squeezed her elbow. Then AJ turned to see how Ian answered Adi’s question. Her hufflepuff friend was a bit quieter than AJ and Adi, but she was getting vibes that something was a bit off with him too. He got a big grin when he said he was in. ”What’s wrong with Valentine?” AJ was completely oblivious to why that might be a problem. Her last name was Valentine, and it wasn’t something she could help or change. ”What would you wanna call it then?”

Oh no, was it her fault that Benny’s ears were turning red again. He was not her target. AJ was just trying to get back at Angel, but Benny was getting the short end of the stick on that deal. She was just about to say that she was kidding, or that she was sorry when the food arrived. Thank goodness. AJ dug in, all thoughts of apologies were out the window. ”What are you guys waiting for?”
