But, back to Beth... All covered in laundry she was.. Good grief.. " No change of address needed.. Here.. I'll help ya up.. " , Reese offered as he held out his hand for her.. A genuine smile on his face..
And then a house elf popped into being before them all and asked if they needed any help... Of course.. .. I'm fine.. Just out for a walk and found my way in here is all.. Thanks, Pip"
Just as things started to die down an older girl came into the laundry room with a sack of clothes and she looked like she had a huge chip on her shoulder too.. " We don't need a sitter thanks.. Betty Boop just fell into the pile.. Thanks.. ", the copper mop-topped badger baby quipped to the lady snake.
Not just one chip kiddo... Her marble was varigated at this point with how many fine line fractures it had. "Repeating thanks is tactless not-even-snark Oompa Loompa. Get a new line if you want out of the sandbox copper mop." What was it about badgers? Really...most irritating house ever. It wasn't surprising since her sister had been one but still, worst house ever. SPOILER!!: Betty Snake Quote:

Beth then turned her attention as she wiggled in the hamper (honestly possibly stuck) ”thanks, and you don’t have to do that…clean, I can help” she smiled as she started to reach toward Daehyun’s hand. That was of course, when she noticed the offered hand from Reese as well. this wasn’t personal she didn’t want to hurt anyone so she simply stuck her hands out to both of them. This would have been odd if Ewan had reached out too…really, this move probably made her look overly confident and full of herself – but she wasn’t…not always that is. ”…thanks…lion-man and Reese” she smiled before glancing toward Ewan. ”oh please the dad jokes aren’t needed…and you spooked me earlier…unexpected eye contact isn’t…always the most fun” she mainly felt that way because of all of the horrible things she had read in those myths she loved.
Pips got a kind smile before Beth turned to look at grumpzilla – okay maybe she secretly loved the girl. ”Hey Lovecraft, didn’t mean to ruin your zen-laundry area” Beth, now standing again after pulling herself up with her friends hands turned to face the burnette. ”don’t worry, I was doing laundry…some total whack job of a person left their dryer sheets laying around…really, revenge should happen” she was only trying to speak the girls language – darker than her normal friendly tone. Turning to look at the boys again she smiled "this is Eria, you don't want to mess with her...she's cool" and maybe secretly under the tiny blonde's protection.
Dryer sheets.....well, the kid might have a future as a fiction writer but the older snake certainly didn't consider for a moment it was the real story. "I can tell you how to fix that in the dorms tonight. Might have a new book to show you..." She wasn't the friendliest girl that was for dead certain...but she didn't mind the tiny blonde. She wasn't an irritating child, just had alot to learn about telling stories. After all, Eria was born from an author, she might know a thing or two as the little blonde had managed to piece together. It was part of why she showed some potential and was worth tutoring.

Really, they were such a peculiar group of friends, he thought. Surely things must never be boring around them. Then, finally, Beth was back up on her feet, and-
... lion man?
"Daniel," he offered, because in all honesty, lion man was the least accurate description for him, being the scaredy cat that he was. A year had passed and he still wondered what the Sorting Hat had been thinking - still wondered if he was a late bloomer and if he'd ever show any Gryffindor traits.
Just as he'd finally allowed himself to laugh lightly at everyone's antics, this Slytherin girl showed up and rudely hinted that the laundry room was no place for kids - he was a few days short of thirteen, thank you very much. But he would surely follow Beth's you-don't-want-to-mess-with-her advice, so he remained silent, until Pips caught his attention.
... of course the house elf had already run off to finish doing their laundry. Not wanting to upset Pips, he smiled gratefully at the creature. "Thank you for your hard work, Pips." Now that his laundry was taken care of, and their damsel in distress appeared alright, he should probably make himself invisible and sneak out when no one was looking. It was this kind of situation that made him antsy, being around so many people he did not know, and even more so when they seemed to be the best of friends.
Well, it seemed the bigger toddler might make it to adulthood. He caught the hint and was wise enough not to retort. Maybe he'd actually make something of himself in the future...who knew? Either way, she wouldn't have to teach him things the hard way so he was fine by her. SPOILER!!: Bad form Quote:
Originally Posted by GD2204 Dad jokes? Beth may know a lot of movie trivia but she needed to learn a thing or two about jokes. Rolling his eyes, stopped leaning on the barrel, turning as another student entered. *Sigh* He wasn't even surprised. I mean, why not? Lets have a party. Beth could sing... of she ever recovered from her trip. Despite the tone of the new Slytherin, he had to admit, he agreed with her. Deciding to leave and come back later, he grinned at them all. Grabbing his bag of washing, he strode to the door, calling back over his shoulder "Had a race to see who could hang out the washing quickest"... Pausing for a moment, he strode towards the door. Finally, after opening it, he turned, a huge monkey like grin on his face "It was level pegging!!!!". Chuckling, he left without a second glance back. He didn't need to know if they were laughing. He knew they were.
Alright...this one needed to not quit his schooling because it was clear he'd never survive stand up. Toddlers these days just got worse and worse...seriously was that just poorly worded or an actual attempt at inappropriate humor? All he was getting was an eyeroll because he cleared the room after he stunk it up. SPOILER!!: Betty Snake x2 Quote:

He was kind, the gryffindors she had met so far were kind – Edmund and Chase…or wait, right…there must have been other not nice lion-pride people but so far she liked them. ”Its nice to meet you Daniel,” she smiled over to him as she glanced from him, to Pips, and to the rest of their ragtag group…Eria, of course got a little wink again because for some reason the little blonde rather liked her. ”Hey Pips, if you don’t mind I’d like to help with this – I made a bit of a mess” she gave the house elf a concerned smile as clearly she felt bad. She’d made a mess of the laundry – luckily nothing had overfilled.
Right?
Winking now baby snake? That one was going to crush boys hearts one day....and actually it made the brunette more inclined to her. She could teach her a trick or two to crushing souls and egos. It was a skill set a proper lady snake had to know to survive in this forsaken pit of ill fortune and she'd casually assist through the year. Only fledging she didn't find disparaging so far, so she should do her part to help her bloom after all.
