Thankfully, this new aged gunk was made with better stuff that wouldn't set the common room on fire.
"WAIT! I NEED MY ALUMINIUM FOIL HELMET!" he flailed - what, she said to prepare for the worst! - as he was covered in blue string!gunk. Looked awful with his red suit, by the way, but oh well.
He was getting ready to retaliate - grabbing more cans of the stuff and popping the caps off and allowing them to fall to the ground - when Gryffindors began arriving from the feast. He threw Medea a quick glance just to let her know that it was SO still on, but turned his attention to the students that were slowly trickling in and unleashed RAINBOW STREAMS OF GUNK upon EVERYONE.
"WELCOME HOME, GRYFFINDORS!" he greeted. "Not to worry. This stuff is harmless." He set down all of his cans, save for the one he had been originally holding, and turned to one of the newer Gryffindors (AlwaysSnapesGirl). "It is indeed. Familiar with it?" he asked while handing the boy a can with a lime green lid.
Waving and spraying addition gunk on others who walked past and said hello, he soon found himself pushing down on air as the Head Girl had taken his can. "You're welcome to keep that, Miss Cambridge," he nodded, grabbing an orange lid can instead. "And help yourself to more for ammo once you complete your fort."
Which reminded him that he ought to make an announcement to, er, sort of organize things. Ish.
"Alright, Gryffindors, listen up! If you want to head to your dorms real quick to change out of uniform and in pajamas you are more than welcome to do so. There are snacks and drinks for those who didn't get their fill at the feast and the area in front of the fireplace has been designated as a 'quiet zone'," he explained, complete with air quotes because he did not expect there to be much quiet in the common room this evening. "There are some handouts over there on the table showing how best to make blanket and sofa forts, so grab a friend and get constructing if you wish and get ready for a silly string battle until we get too exhausted to move or bored with it. You may choose to sleep in your blanket and sofa forts with friends if you wish rather than the dorms. But let me make it ABSOLUTELY clear there is to be NO co-ed sleeping this evening." He had seen MORE than enough of that sort of STUFF this evening.
"Other than that, just kick back and enjoy your first night in the common room !"
And he was now going to get up off his imaginary soap box and make himself a delicious hot schmo before starting construction on his own blanket fort.
"Woah," Sapphire couldn't help saying out loud after witnessing everything that was happening before her. She felt even more excited than before and laughed as streams of rainbow stuff fell over her. She continued to laugh as she removed some of the gunk that landed in her mouth.
"Cool."
She turned around when she heard an adult start speaking. Sapphire listened intently, glancing at each place the professor mentioned.
"String battle?" she wondered aloud, playing with the rainbow stuff that seemed to be everywhere in the room.

HA, it was so good to be a Gryffindor thats for sure. Spotting his new head of house he made his way over to Professor Flamsteed. "sorry Sir… that I'm late.. I got on a staircase that totally went the wrong way and I had to figure my way back…" he laughed as he ran his hand through his hair.
"This is just amazing! do you mind if I try one of those silly strings?" asking because he has seen them around sure, but he hasn't physically tried them out for himself before. Looking around the room while waiting for the Professor's response he watched some of the other kids play with it.. ughhhhh it just made him want to do it so much more now.
"I don't even know what I'm doing!" Sapphire said, as she heard someone somewhere behind her ask about the strings. She got tangled in them somehow. Trying to remove a particularly angry knot of rainbow string around her left ankle, she tripped on her own foot and landed on the floor.
"I'm going to love it here," The little first year said as she laughed at herself.

He was only late because he spent extra time looking for Professor Bentley after the feast. Beautiful Bentley where was she?! But yes back to the point, after telling the portrait THE RIGHT password that he REMEMBERED he walked into a very.... wild Common Room and before he could say anything else he was covered in rainbow gunk????
And then before he could do anything else, he spotted O________O ROMANOS?! Could someone please explain what was going on here? (Also, it was a fact that Romanos had been called a Cold One in the yearbook so clearly she was one still and even though his liquid luck induced self apologized for that he was still very suspicious okay). And he had been staring at her, mouth agape for like three minutes now?
And then back to the common room. Why were there so many people he didn't know? And why was there rainbow gunk flying everywhere? AND WHERE WAS BEAUTIFUL BENTLEY!?
Sapphire noticed an older student just come in and pass by.
"Uh, hello," this first year greeted. All the party activity in the room made her feel at home with everyone, whether she knew them already or not. Yay Gryffindors!
"You look surprised. I know it's not Gryffindor colours exactly, but don't you think all this rainbow stuff is awesome?!"
