WHAM!
POOF!
That was the sound that was made as Jake slammed into Varius. Into him... not through him, and became engulfed by the resulting cloud of flour. So thiiiiiiis was what the guy had been up to in the kitchens.
"Varius," Jake spluttered, coughing the flour out of his lungs, blinking as he did so. "Why are you covered in-" he stopped, a familiar face catching his eye. "Myrtle!" Jake cried out, face breaking into a grin. Now he was covered in flour too... would Myrtle recognise him? Had she even seen him run into Varius?
More and more people kept coming!
EEK! Myrtle liked people coming to visit her but she could only handle so many at a time!
The ghosty started to float back to the wall shared with her loo but stopped when she realized that it was none other than her Knight in Shining.....Shining...? He wasn't shining! He was trying to walk through her ghosty friend who was a boy!
"Jaaaaakey Wakey?" the girlie ghost squeaked. "Why are you...are you
dusty?"
Yes, he was surely covered in dust, not...well....funny how he seemed to look just like Tipsy Tipps when he was so dusty. Hmm.....
Myrtle started twirling one of her pigtails thoughtfully as she became uncharacteristically silent, staring from Varius to JakeyWakey and EEEK! A Ravenclaw! EEK! Too many people!

Glancing at Dru, he shrugged. "I'm out of here," he muttered to her. To Myrtle, who was obviously busy with this Varius kid, and now the other one, who was now covered in flour, and soon the Ravenclaw girl making her way down the corridor, he shook his head.
"Alright, Myrtle. I'm not one for crowds, but I'm out of here. I'll be around the school, if you ever want to come visit me instead of the other way around," he shouted to her. Shaking his head, he recrossed his arms over his chest and began walking down the corridor.
He hated crowds. He was so glad he was a loner.
"Waaaaaaaaaait Irial!" Myrtle whined, floating after him down the corridor, then pausing, and just waiting for him to turn around and see her lip wibble. She was a loner too, didn't he
know!
*le siiiiiiiigh*

She then began to talk about a previous knight in shining armour? Last term? Oh boy! Did Varius have competition? Well, apparently not as she began to cry which meant it was Varius cue to be caring. "Oh Myrtle, any person willing to give you up is not worth shedding tears over!" he extended his arms, motioning his hands in a way that indicated for her to come for a BIGGGGGGG HUFFIE HUG!
"ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Varius screamed as he was knocked floated off his feet. The flour poofed everywhere and now covered the culprit, which so happened to be none other than Jake. Now they both were covered in flour and both looked like ghosts! What rubbish timing the boy had - he didn't have time to play and turn cats pink! He was confessing his love! Sheeeeeeesh. "Jake," Varius greeted through gritted teeth - he hadn't even bothered to rub his head, "How nice to see you again... can we talk some other time? Me and Myrtle are having a bit of a conversation here..."
Oh. No.
Fine. If Irial wasn't going to give Myrtle the attention she so righteously deserved, she could still
woo make friends with ghosty boy.
Something wasn't quite right about him, but he was still sooooo peaaaarly.
"Thank you..hehee...heheeh..heeeeeee," Myrtle cooed and giggled, pulling her pigtail in front of her face like she was being bashful and hiding from him. As if.
She would have floated forward to hug him, too, only...that Hufflepuff....
waiiiiiit a minute.....
waaaaaaait just one minute! "JAKEY!" Myrtle gasped as she suddenly got it. "Why didn't you
tell me ANOTHER Hufflepuff had died?! Isn't
Vaaaaaarius here in your House? You've been neglecting to share the school gossip with me!"
She sniffled *SUPER* loud now and started using her pigtail like a hanky. "Jaaaaakey's been neglecting
meeeee, Variusssss, he...heee doesn't
liiiiiike me anymoreeeeeee....only a ffffellow ghosty would
underssstaaaand...."
Poor, innocent, moaning, moping Myrtle. She didn't even understand the flour thing. Not. One. Bit. That is what not eating for a very long time will do to you...you will cease to remember standard kitchen ingredients.
