"This looks great!" Now they just had to make sure the other groups were in sync. This is sooo exciting!

"Excellent! I do believe almost everything you'd need to pull that sort of decoration together can be found over there."
He pointed to the never ending boxes of supplies. He'd, perhaps gone overboard and purchased enough to cover all the possibilities. He'd return whatever wasn't used.
"You should get to setting up, then." He gave them a quick nod before heading over to the others.
It was good enough?
Looking back to the professor and then to Ellie, Evelyn smiled before putting her pencil down next to the notebook and looking over to the piles and piles of boxes. They had to sort through all of that? And, decorate by themselves? EESH!
And what were they supposed to do when they were done with one season and wanted to go on to decorating the next season?

"Sorry I am late, lots track of time whilst i was sketching!" He tapped the diary he had in his hand, but before showing his ideas, he spied a girl, that had been vocal in Classroom Eleven, but whom he had never met before. Juggling to re-arrange his things, he extended his hand,
"Nice to meet you, Patroclus Hudson!"
Seeing the notebook Evelyn had, Patroclus smiled, there were definitely on the same brain wave.
"Here are so sketches i dreamt up whilst thinking on the seasons!" Opening his book, he explained his first one, "Ok, Spring! when i think spring I think fields, new life, Woods! so this is what i came up with, the idea that the Great Hall is a clearing in the centre of a forest, Trees so tall they reach into the sky." Flipping his notebook open from them to see, Patroclus' page showed his idea.
"Next we have Fall! One word, Leaves! I say we make the the walls look like a wind storm of falls leaves, rich browns, flame reds and burning yellows." Turning the page he showed his Fall sketch.
"Winter, I say Ice, and lots of It! We should transport the Ball to the frozen icelands of the Arctic! The floors, sheets of ice, the walls great looming glaciers and the sky...snowing of course!" Turning the page his next image was on display!
"I didn't get to summer, but i see we already have some Ideas!" However, she wasn't able to ask her question when a voice interrupted her. Looking behind her to see who it was, a small smirk appeared on her lips as she saw who it was.
"Well well...look who finally arrived." she snickered before sitting down on one of the seats. At least one other person arrive in their group. Three was good enough right?
And he had ideas!! Good ones at that too. Looking at each of the sketches he had created, trying not to be envious of his obvious artist skills (since she was pretty good herself too), the smirk slowly turned down to a smile as the ideas would go well with their own they made up.
"I like the one you made up for Spring." she said with a nod before grabbing her notebook.
"We had decided before you came on some garden theme or something for it, but I do like your idea better. We can have it a bit sunny in the clearing, with some flowers around. And we had decided on a few animals to look as if they're there too, like bunnies and deer..." The two of them would fit perfectly together, right? Evelyn thought so.
"Perhaps make it a little more enchanting looking as well." Sparkly air! That was the only way she could describe it.
Turning he page back to Fall, Evelyn stared at it for a moment before including comments of her own.
"I never really thought of using a wind storm for Fall. I usually pictured it as a gentle breeze, making the leaves fall off a little at a time....but how 'bout this? We can switch from the wind storm to a gentle wind every now and then. It would make it a little more realistic too." Not having any thoughts on the colors of the leaves since they already agreed on the fact that the leaves would be brown, red, and yellow, Evelyn turned the page back to the Winter section and smiled a little more, before turning back to the Fall page.
"And we had thought that pumpkins placed around here and there as well would be a good idea. Since Halloween is in fact during the Fall season, pumpkins would remind you of that right? Plus since...pumpkin pie...Thanksgiving..." Yea, he would get the idea.
"Of course we'll be having ice for winter and snow from the ceiling." she chuckled quietly before putting her full attention on the page.
"Ellie wants a few things like snowman and igloos and such in the Winter theme too. We could make the icelands, but we can also have a few fun things around here and there as well."
Flipping the pages back to the Spring picture, Evelyn glanced up at Patroclus before looking at her own notebook.
"We don't have much for the Summer season really. We figured we have a pretty sunny view of the lake on the walls, and on the ceiling, have the sun shining. Not too brightly of course. Don't want the guests and people to be blinded." Taking a deep breathe and letting it out slowly, Evelyn shrugged her shoulders before looking back to Patroclus.
"So, thoughts on everything?"
