Celandine was minding her own business, really, she was. And HEY she knew that kid! What was he doing? Performance art? She watched him for a few moments, waiting to see if he'd do anything but apparently he was just... standing there.

It was a very itchy black beret and he did not approve of it at ALL. He was looking for a way to get rid of the hat without anyone really noticing.
Looking around he saw a statue of someone just standing there in the middle of the corridor. Odd place to put a statue, but it would work for ditching this itchy hat on his head. He could get back into the hat he was most comfortable in. Taking his hat off, he placed it on the head of the statue and grinned. "Perfect. Now I can put MY hat back on. Stupid beret!" Pie took his fedora out of his bag and smiled as the fabric of it touched his head. It was almost like his hair was rejoicing.
OH. Oh wait! Was she supposed to..? Celandine looked at Pietro and unravelled the scarf that she just happened to be wearing and wrapped it around Divad's neck. There! Now at least, while he was just standing there, he'd be warm AND fashionable!
"I like your Fedora." Celandine observed casually to Pie before cocking her head to one side and examining Divad and his new threads.
Pity she didn't have a coat or earmuffs or something to donate.
Corridors at Hogwarts could get mighty drafty.

The manly man pillow fight in the Huffie Boys' Dormitory
Fletcher RUEEEEENED it because of his pyromaniac tendencies.

That was kind of sad, but not enough to keep away Fletcher's happy mood. "I LOVE THIS PLACE!" he shouted, practically dancing over to his bed and tearing off his tie as he strutted.
Yeah, it had been a good feast. Yeah, some of the new staff choices were weird. But yeah, Fletcher was too stuffed to care.
He collapsed onto his bed with a several happy noises and spread his arms out like he was making a snow angel. "Ahhhh. Now this is the life."
Wait, wait, what was he sitting on? Or was there was a lump in his pocket...?! The boy half-froze and took a second to dig the object out of his pants pocket before nestling the chocolate-frog shaped gold in the crook of his neck. All settled in for now, Fletcher contentedly closed his eyes.
"Theeeeeere." HOORAH FOR BEING HOME!

Fletcher was looking far too happy and content, though, so Jake wrenched a pillow from under his face and launched it straight at the boy.
Take that, Happy.

"HEY DUDE," he bolted up from his bed, "THAT'S NOT COOL." Whoever did that was going to get a Hufflejock fist to the face if he didn't find his precious wherever it had rolled to.

Jake kept quiet even though he was the only other person actually inside the room and with a pillow missing.
Flicking his wand into his hand, Jake wordlessly sent another pillow across the room from another bed. Using magic of course.
"Is the happiness gone yet?" he called to Fletcher, the words muffled as he was talking into his remaining pillow.

"WHAT THE HELL?" Fletcher spat, grabbing a pillow in either hand as he glared wildly around the room. He noticed that, out of the many empty beds there, only that weird Jake kid's was missing a pillow.
All right, one other bed was missing a pillow too but only Jake had the guts to talk to Fletcher.
Standing up from the bed with pillows in tow, Fletcher strided across the room and didn't even stop when his foot kicked something solid under his bed. "No, Jake Upwhatever," he slammed one pillow down on top of the other seventh year's head, "you can't squash my happiness! So HA!"
Down went the other pillow with a soft extinguishing of feathers. Yeah, Fletcher was mildly peeved, but he was still happy overall.
And this wasn't a pillow fight, noooo. Just a little.... Hufflepuff Man Bonding!

Awesome.
But those visions were, of course, hit away by a pillow hit from Jake's fellow 'puff. He gave a strangled yelp, not unlike a puppy who's just woken himself up by his own fart, and flailed off the bed.
On purpose of course... totally.
Scrambling to some pillows that had fallen on the floor, Jake soon found himself swinging one at Fletcher's legs before backing underneath the other boy's bed.
He wasn't interested in vanquishing fun anymore... this was bloody hilarious.
Jake drew his wand again and sent another pillow from his bed flying at Fletcher.
Baha.
"Victory is mine!"
Fletcher may be the Triwizard Champion, not that Jake knew that, but Jake was Champion of pillow fights.

With a pillow attacking his long legs, Fletcher almost lost his balance and only managed to stay upright by grabbing onto the bed's comforter. It wasn't his fault he was so busy laughing at how Jake had fallen off his own bed that he could hardly stand up straight anymore!
"Who said we could use mag---" Jake's latest assault could have knocked loose one of the Glitterpuff's teeth. As it were, some feathers escaped.. but hey, they didn't taste so bad ya know. Not as good as fresh-from-floor sandwiches, but not bad.
Feathers were kinda... crunchy. Huh. Whodathunkit?
But back to the battle. Fletcher regained his balance by actually allowing himself to tip onto the bed and squirm over its other side, so that there was a mattress and comforter between himself and Jake. "Surrender now or forever... er... regret your choice!"
He whipped his own wand out of his pocket and pointed it at the other 'Puff, causing all of his own pillows, blankets and sheets to dump from his bed and onto/in front of Jake's hiding spot.
And just for good measure, Fletcher whipped the topmost layer off the bed closest to him and tied it around his neck like a cape.
SUPERGlitterPuff style. Check it.

And then...
Well... somewhat trapped. Jake bellowed out a "NEVARRRRHHH!" as he cast a spell on the bed-ware which affected it almost like a giant gust of wind, blowing it away so that Jake could dash out and leap over his own bed, pulling the mattress and stuff with him, leaning it up against the wall like half a tent.
THAT was some good cover, right there.
Eyeing a sheet on the floor nearby, Jake pointed his wand at it and cast a spell which made it twist itself into the form of a giant butterfly (or moth, whichever was scarier) which then flapped towards Fletcher, whilst Jake snicker-giggled from inside his half-mattress!tent protection, holding a pillow ready to launch at Fletcher.
He vaguely remembered there being another kid outside the door.
Yes, small child. This is what being a seventh year is all about.

And Fletcher thought it was awesome. He had never really met a crazy person before, unless one counted crazy girls who liked to slap his face, and he had NEVER met a person like Jake.
"Niiiiiiice," he actually complimented his fellow Puff, peeking over his bed to watch his sheets blow away. He was a little rusty when it came to thinking on his feet but Jake, apparently, was not. "Can you get it to make itself too?"
He sucked at those housekeeping spells. Just ask Rae. He also sucked at... catching butterflies, or whatever that thing flapping towards him was supposed to be.
"YOUR CHOICE!" the Glitterpuff hollered back, popping up dramatically from behind the bed and pointing his wand toward the sheet!moth. A stream of real, live, hot fire burst forth from the tip and ignited just the fancily-folded sheet.
Heh. That worked. Good thing there were no Muggle fire alarms here.

Sniff.
Sniffsniff.
SNIIIIIIIIIIIIIFF.
Was that FIRE?! Since when was this a battle of the elements?!
Jake, of course, was one to freak out at bizzare moments, but this was far from one of those times. There was now a flying moth... butterfly... freak thing which was on FIYAH!
"AGUAMENTI!" Jake yelled, pointing his want out of the gap of his cover and let forth a burst of water not unlike a firehose... which miiiiight have caught Fletcher.
Hey, HE could be on fire!
Using that as somewhat of a distraction, Jake let the now soaked sheet fly straight at Fletcher, whilst at the same time bursting from his hiding place, leaping over the bare bed and bringing the pillow around at the other seventh year as he LEAPT through the air.
... wet feathers did not smell pleasant.

...and to top it all off, he had also accidentally-on-purpose DRENCHED the Glitterpuff! The water was too much for Fletcher; he was so shocked by the icy blast that Jake's pummeling pillow-rolling-whatever in the air wasn't even felt.
"C'mon now," he grumped, batting the other boy off with his left hand as he lazily cast a disintegrating charm on the charred, still-floating, sheet. "The flying buttfirefly was cool, and you had to go and ruin it all with your stupid water."
Plus now he'd have to go dry his hair or something before he ever got a nap in. THANKS, JAKERS.

"Fire is a leeeeettle too deadly for me. What with all the mattresses, curtains, pillows, blankets and WOOD in here," Jake pointed out.
Plus, Fletcher would be better drying off than un-charring and stuff. Plus his hair would be ruined.
Speaking of which, Jake raised his wand and super duper helpfully cast a simple little spell which sent a blast of warm arm at Fletcher to dry him off.
Not looking to see if it had worked, Jake looked around the room.
Oh.
"Oh."
Then he just burst into slightly amused laughter.

Then Jake decided to rectify his water spell with some sort of hot air charm and Fletcher got a nice taste of the sheet!cape as a result. "Thanks. Really. We've traded moods now. I think you're good."
He made a hmmph-ing sound as he got to his feet and slowly stared from the madly-laughing Jake to the source of the laughter.
"Hehhh." Grumpy Glitterpuff cracked a half-grin at the sight of the mess they had made. "We should go fetch ourselves some house-elves, dude."

He grinned at the remark. Well duhhhhh... of course he was good.
"Yeeeahhhh... let's do that," Jake agreed. He wanted to sleep and house elves good fix this stuff super quickly. The young man couldn't stop a teeeeeeny tiny smirk, however. "I totally won that, though."
But yeah... best clean up before some square reported the noise to Moretti.

Taking a seat Indian-style against the wall, Melanie took a deep breath through her nose (yes... through her nose. Twas rather hard to breath through her mouth with all that gum in it). Then, she blew a bubble.
The girl went slightly crossed eye as she watched the big, pink, mass grow...
And then pop.
All. Over. Her.
It took a moment to register that she was covered in the pink gooey stuff and then, "Whaa!"

Because there was only so much giggling one guy could take.
I simply HAD to share this here! What started as a midnight snack with Salander and Lex turned... ugly. Poor little birdies.
Text Cut: Pogrebins, flaming birdies, cookie dough.. and ANGST!

He saw her go through dessert even faster than the main course. And perhaps a new pastime has started for him-- watch Lexi eat. No he wasnt grossed out, not at all. He just found it fascinating to see a girl like her make the entire spread disappear. It had the same draw as Princess Leia pushing various goons off and watching them disappear into the Sarlacc Pitt.
And he had to grin at the burping "You know in some cultures burping is a good thing, even expected. Its like complementing the Chef for an awesome meal." he nodded. Yeah random trivia of the day brought to you by your friendly neighborhood Slytherin.
Salander searched the table for a non-existent napkin as Lexi began to wipe herself off, silently grumbling about the Elves missing a few essentials. "Hey you missed something...", he said as he motioned to the stray whip cream off her cheek. Hesitating for a moment, he took her face gingerly in his hands and flicked it off lightly. There were a few more, stray strawberry droplets around the sides of her mouth. He attempted to brush them off gently with his thumb, unconscious that he was leaning in. He looked into her eyes and could feel the strength and passion burning within them. She was far from perfect, but then again, who is?
And with that he closed the gap and kissed her.

She met his eyes as he took her face in his hands. She felt her cheeks begin to burn as he leaned in. She knew what was coming. She didn't move. Didn't fight it. His eyes were locked on hers and she knew that she wanted to kiss him again. He was amazing in her book. Ivan was popping up in her head and she knew it was wrong, but she couldn't stop it.
When his lips touched hers she let her eyes close and softly kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his neck. After a few moments she broke the kiss and rested her forehead against his. Giggling as she opened her eyes she said, "Did you get it all, then? Or is there more that you need to get off for me." Her smile was blinding and she felt... beautiful there in that moment.

OH dear! Salander was in trouble! There was a girl sucking the life out of him. At least, that is why it looked like from the goofy and not to mention expression on his face. She just had to do something! She knew something was up at Hogwarts! On no! POGREBINS! They had learned how to shape shift! She would have to let Eino know about this, but, first she had to protect her Slytherin Prince from danger.
Glancing around for some sort of weapon, Kurumi noticed her cookies and decided to take a page from her Patroclus' book as she had observed in Defense Against the Dark Arts last year. Grabbing her wand, Kurumi quickly cast Avis and had the birds each pick up a giant glop of left over cookie dough each before pointing her wand at the couple. "Oppugno!" she squeaked as the birds took off with cookie dough in their claws.

Humming to himself some nameless tune he walked into the kitchen and headed to the fridge not paying attention to anyone there until he got about half way there and spotted someone veeeeeeeeeeery familiar with her arms around someone not him. Clenching his jaw he stopped and eyed the two of them carefully. Maybe he was a good friend and he was just letting his imagination wander. Yup that was it. "Hey sweetie...." His eyes going between the two of them again he stood rooted in place. "Um...what are you doing..." With your arms around someone NOT him being unsaid. His need for food forgotten as he waited for, oh this is blah blah a friend and he was sad. Or...I almost fell and the only thing I could grab was his neck?
He hadn't even noticed someone else there until he saw birds flying and a wand being pointed. "HEY!" Okay well he might not know what's going on but spell casting at his girlfriend was soooooooo not acceptable. Grabbing his own wand he pointed it at the girl.

Until the sky fell.
Or rather a whole bunch of cookie dough rained on their heads.
He bolted upright as more cookie dough pelted him "Hey! What the??? Go away birdies SHOO SHOO!! " he yelled, swiping at them blindly with his arms. He stood up, tripped and fell to the floor. Looking up, he saw Ivan, pointing a wand at someone.
"Ivan!" he recognized the lad instantly from Jake's party. Is he gonna get rid of those birds? Salander trained his eyes at where he was pointing at-- and saw Kurumi with her salvo of feathered friends.
"No! Put that away!" He yelled at the Ravenclaw boy, thinking he was gonna hit the young Gryff. "The heck's the matter with you?"

"ARGH! Incendio!" she shouted after she flexed her wrist and released her wand and immediately pointed it at the rebel birds with the cookie dough. COOKIE DOUGH! Lexi's head whipped around and oh my.
...
"Ivan! Don't! You'll scare her to death!" Lexi said in a high pitched voice. She tried to disentangle herself from Sal and fell off of the bench and toppled over into the floor. Groaning slightly she looked up at her boyfriend... the boy she had just been kissing... and the obviously crazy girl with the cookie dough and a flock of crazy birds. "There is a reason birds are called fowl you know." Muttering to herself she lay in the floor a bit longer even as the house elves scuttled about.
Oh man... what was she going to do now? Curl up and die? Pretend that she wasn't there. Perhaps if she closed her eyes they wouldn't see HER. Testing this theory she closed her eyes tight and wished she was somewhere else. Anywhere else in that moment.

...
OOPS...
Next thing she knew, the boy had pointed his wand directly at her and she felt her knees begin shaking and her entire body trembled. Kurumi was bright, perhaps the brightest second year, but there was no way that she was going to win a duel with an older student, especially not when her hands were still a little gooey from all the cookie dough. "I-I-I-I-I didn't m-m-m-mean..." Kurumi stammered with her arms held high in the air.
Then, there was a thud as Salander fell to the ground covered in cookie goo. As if things couldn't get worse, her little bird friends were now going down in flames. Kurumi frowned as she watched them fall to the ground in little piles of burning feathers and cookie dough. The girl didn't have to go and blow them up. Birds, even of the charmed variety, had feelings too."

"I didn't mean to scare her she was pointing her wand at you..." he said to Lexi. He hadn't been about to do anything...really. Well unless she did something then he'd protect Lexi. But noooooo he was the bad guy.
Bending down he reached for Lexi's hand to help her up, "Come on sweetie. You okay? Anything broken?" he asked with a smirk completely forgetting the scene he had walked in on. "I'll drag you to the healer if I have to." And unlike her he'd succeed this time. Looking around at the cookie dough mess he shook his head, "Why did you do that?" he asked the young girl. Seriously....what a mess. NOOOOOOOOOOO and on his clothes too! His clothes were coated in the stuff and a frown came to his face. Now he'd lost two sets in a matter of days. Faaaaaaaaantastic.

However upon his entry into the kitchen, it seemed his hunger was going to have to wait, as the Kitchen was a mess. Singed feathers, glumps of dough, and exposed wands. "Wow." Patroclus breathed, "what happened here?" he asked, staring around at the mess and the students that were amoungst it.

Salander looked on, its like the plague of Egypt rolled into the kitchen, cookie dough and roasted birds falling all around him. If it wasnt such a mess this would actually look like another good meal...
Stop thinking about food.
He scrambled to get up, and took a quick glance at Kurumi. Oh no she looks like she was gonna lose it. "Kurumi are you ok?" Confused he was but now he was slowly realizing it. The cookie dough and the birds came from the young Gryffindor girl. "Why Kurumi?" he uttered quietly, trying to keep his voice steady. Another moment with Lexi ruined....
And out of the corner of his eye he saw Ivan putting his wand away and helping Lexi up. And calling her "sweetie"
His head spun towards them face totally perplexed. Huh? Did he miss something here?
Then he heard someone else speak. Someone with a shiny red badge on his shirt.
Oh this just keeps getting better and better.

"What did you not mean? Did you not mean to set a flock of dough carrying birds on us, then? Because that looked pretty intentional to me," she said loudly as she opened her eyes and saw that Ivan was standing over her with his hand extended. Sweetie.
He called her sweetie and it seemed that all of them were perplexed. Sighing she took his hand and hoisted herself up. Not even ATTEMPTING to brush the bits of feather and dough off of her she looked at Ivan and said, "I k-k-kissed him. It was all my fault and I would have kissed him again. I AM SO SORRY!" Her pretty brown eyes began to brim with tears.
Turning her head to look at Salander she said, "I am so sorry... Ivan's my boyfriend, Salander. I was going to tell you... I was just so confused. I really... I like you, Sal." Her throat felt like it was going to close up. She blinked several times to keep from crying and looked up as...
Really? A Prefect. And not just any Prefect HER Prefect. The Lion badge boy. Great. She sighed and looked at Patroclus. "It was my fault, Patroclus. I set the birds on fire..." she said in a small voice. It was true. It was ALL her fault.

"I-I-I-I j-ju-just thought that she m-m-m-m-might be sucking....thelifeoutofyouandIgotscared." If Kurumi hadn't been so flustered right now, she would have realized how silly her story sounded. "I-I-I-I thought she-m-m-m-ight be a transfigured pogrebin." Eino would have done something similiar, she was sure. He had just thrown his pet cactus off the top of the Owlery because he was trying to teach it how to fly.
Then, little hot droplets began forming in the corners of Kurumi's violet eyes as the older Gryffindor girl let her have it. It was then that she recognized the girl as the same Gryffindor she had been smiling at during the opening feast. The same girl who had taken one of her cookies, eaten it, and given her the sweetest smile of the night...and Kurumi had attacked her with cookie dough wielding birds because the thought the girl was a crazy rock demon sucking the life out of Salander like a dementor. "I-I-I-I-I'm s-s-s-s-s-sorry," Kurumi said crashing to the ground with her knees tucked under and her hands pressed against the floor in the deepest bow she had ever done. She had really made a mess of the kitchen.
Peeking up, Kurumi saw Patroclus standing over her looking in absolute shock at the chaos. "P-P-P-Please d-d-d-d-d-on't b-b-b-b-blame them," well, the girl had been cheating on her boyfriend, so maybe she deserved some of the blame. After all, had she not been kissing Kurumi's Slytherin Prince and making him look like a sappy puppy, she wouldn't have summoned the birds in the first place. "I-I-I-I-I s-s-ss-sta-started it." And her face was back in the ground.

Swallowing he looked at the Slytherin and then back at Lexi he didn't even care anymore that his clothes were dirty as his world right then was completely falling apart. His throat going raw he couldn't hide the pain in his eyes at what she'd said.
Gathering himself together he hardened his expression trying his best not to show how much she'd just hurt him. She liked him.... "Funny I thought you cared more about me than 'like'," he said harshly. Ignoring the Gryffindor prefect that had come in he pulled his eyes from Lexi's so she couldn't see how hurt he was, "I think I need to go," he said swiftly. Yup go that's what he needed to do. And talk to James and...clean himself up. He'll deal with this later. Much later. He turned and brushed past the Prefect not even stopping and out the door. As soon as it closed behind him he took off running to his dormitory a small voice in his head laughing at his stupidity all the way up the stairs.

"Lexi and Kurumi, it seems you both see that you are at fault so that's a good thing, so let's hug it out Lions!" Patroclus joked with a laugh, "You don't really have to hug." This was not at all waht Patroclus had been expecting when he had decided to come to kitchens.
However the two other boys were silent, and Patroclus went to speak to them, when the Ravenclaw one pushed past him and hurried off. "Okay..." the fifth year muttered, slightly shocked, "I am going to guess that it was more than Cookies and Birds that have upset him, so I wont get involved with that. But the rest of us, is everyone cool?"
The elves however didn't look so cool, perhaps he should offer to help clean.

We had that in a glass case in DADA last term." It was part of the finals, didnt she remember? He spared a look at Lexi, momentarily distracted by what she would look like with a head of a boulder.....
Until Kurumi crashed to the ground bowing and crying.
Oh no. No tears. Salander cant handle a girls' tears. "No Kurumi uh....." he said wanting to just walk over and comfort the poor girl. But he couldnt even move a inch when Lexi began to speak.
There has got to be something wrong with his ears tonight. First Kurumi said Lexi was a Pogrebin and now Lexi says that Ivan is her boyfriend.
He stared at the blonde, completely immobile. He waited for her-- for all of them-- to crack up laughing and call out that the joke's on him.
But Lexi started to weep. And in his shell shock he could vaguely make out what Ivan was saying before stomping off. But he kept his eyes on Lexi. That beautiful moment they had earlier was now replaced by the ugly reality of this.
He wanted to reach out and wipe her tears away, tell her its gonna be ok.... and at the same time he didnt want to see her at all.
And like a thunderclap someone said something about Lions. And hugging.
He blinked, shifting his eyes towards the Prefect, what was he saying? He was punishing them by hugging carnivorous beasts?
He needed to leave. Stat.
"I'm sorry about the mess." he mumbled half-haphazardly. "I'll clean it up in the morning." his usual excuse at home, completely forgetting where he was or that elves are scuttling about. Without looking at any of them, he made for the door and walked quickly towards the dungeons.

"Iv..." she began. She watched his back as he left the kitchen and her heart sank. Not as much as it did when Salander's face came into view when she turned to face him. The tears came faster and she choked out, "I'm so sorry Salander. Please..." Then he was gone too. Without acknowledging Patroclus she turned, in a daze and began to walk through the mess that they had made and went out the door. Her heart was torn to pieces. She wanted to go after Ivan, but she also wanted to go after Salander. She had successfully hurt two people she cared about. Yay for her. :/

She had only been trying to protect Salander, who probably hated her now. Kurumi sniffled a bit and used the sleeve of her robe to wipe her nose and her tears away. Was there anything she could do? The only thing she knew how to do was bake.
Resting her head on her knees, Kurumi looked around at the panic stricken house elves that was running around trying to clean up the mess that she had started. She turned to her favorite house elf, Twinkle. "No, you guys leave it," she whispered swallowing back another wave of tears. Tears that had been caused by her own innocence and stupidity. "I'll clean it up. After all, I started it." She took the rag from the elf and began scrubbing the floor. No sense in using magic. She didn't deserve an easy way out of this one.
As Kurumi scrubbed and scrubbed, she knew she was going to have to make it up to all of them...somehow. This was going to require cookies...lots and lots of them. Even with class the next day, Kurumi vowed to not sleep until she had baked herself an apology.

"Can I add Nauthiz, Professor? Because runes... runes are frustrating."
Like some other THINGS in the room.

"Raidho for reconnecting when... when you lose your way, when you're trying to figure things out."
Err. hand up.

Neptune's face crumpled, all her features, her posture. She didn't want to lose, or give up, or show that she... wanted to .. figure the desk out...
It just didn't work that way. Desks were dumb.
"For your communication and signals and lack of wise decisions. "
She threw a hand up... to cover that whole bit.
SIGH. No kidding. "And we haven't even started carving yet..."

His hand went up too, slowly.
"Professor... may I be excused?"
Yeah. You win, Neptune Bott.

"I think you two have defective desks."

Looking back and forth between them she had a sinking feeling there was more than a class discussion going on there with those two. This was more on a personal matter it seemed to her. Or maybe she was just reading too much into it... or not.
Her desk... he had carved it up before? What in the name of Merlin was that supposed to mean? And now he wanted to leave class. A class she KNEW he excelled at... since he had told her himself.
O__O
Now Neptune is saying she would go instead? Okay now Marie knew there was something going on there.
Raising her hand but looking at Jimmy instead of the professor she said, "I think my desk will need Perthro because I am totally confused here and have no clue what the meaning of all this is."
Oh she would have questions fro Jimmy later, that was for sure.

Jimmy stared at the professor.
He could think of one reason already like 'no wonder everyone actually thought you murdered people'. The guy was... well, there was just something about him that made Jim think that he was for SERIOUS.
He glanced apologetically at Lexi. Yeah. Sorry. She understood, right? He needed to... go blow things up or something.
"Yeah. Essay. On your desk. Tomorrow." He muttered in reply to Truebridge. He just had to get out. "She didn't do anything wrong." He added quieter, about Neptune, and then scooped his things up, immediately heading for the door, head down and not looking at anyone.

It'd be wet carving, wet teary stupid carving if she didn't excuse herself.
"I'm sorry. I'll ... write your essay. And I'm sorry." Neptune left most of her stuff and left quietly, too.

She looked back over at Jim only to feel her heart drop. He was actually leaving and the only person he looked at was Lexi. Right, obviously the girlfriend was the invisible one here. Why should she know anything that was going on?
She watched as he walked out the door. She was tempted herself to follow him and make sure he was alright but knew she couldn't. She was already behind in the class and she needed to learn all she could if she was going to pass that blasted OWL.
Turning back she seen Neptune leaving too. Great, she was probably going to follow Jimmy and continue whatever it was they had going on here.
Sinking back into her seat and closing her book Marie didn't even bother answering the question Truebs had asked. Then again, she didn't even remember what it was. She really didn't care much now, she just wanted class to be over so she could find Jimmy.
Yeah, she was gonna be pretty useless in this class now.

Eino, you all just got to love him
Text Cut: all under here

Eino was running down the hall with his robe flying behind him, his hood on, while holding a stick on his hand right hand, and a book on his left. "Come, Toby." He whispered to his friend to follow closely behind them. He ran down the stairs, but LO AND BEHOLD-- a mountain. A trap-- No,an obstacle! By the most horrifying and nastiest witch of them all, Morgan Le fay! "Toby, we must jump over the mountain!" Enormous and monstrous, bigger than Mt. Everest! Eino took a step back, readying himself for the biggest leap to have ever been leaped in the history of leaps! He bend his knees slightly and pushed his body upwards into the air and jumped two steps down. Toby followed behind him. Toby wasn't wearing his school uniform though, he was wearing a great armor, helmet, and carrying shield. The weight of all of his equipment slowed them down, so Eino had to be extra careful not to leave him behind.
Now that was done, but what other obstacles would Morgan Le Fay have for them on their journey to... To find, uh... "Toby, what do you suppose we are looking for?" He paused and waited for a reply. "And what do you suppose are we going to do there?" He paused again and listened attentively. "No, Toby we are not on a quest to find the ghosts anymore." Toby seemed to have forgotten too, but there was a turn of luck! "You're right!" Finally, that was figured out, but where would they find this great beastly and monstrous creature that had been sent by Morgan Le Fay to destroy Camelot this time? "You suppose we should ask the portraits, don't you?" He opened his copy of The Great Book of all Things That Were, That Weren't, That Had Been, and That Were To Become. He flipped through the pages and shouted, "Aha!" This frightened Toby, but only slightly, Toby should learn how to behave more like a knight, Eino thought. "Yes, we must ask the Great Teller of all Things, but first he must learn all things from the Great Knowledger of all Things, for he won't tell us anything. Now, don't disturb me while I conjure him, I should mess up if you do." Eino cleared his throat and waving his stick in a clockwise motion he chanted. "Hwæt! Primordial illumination, the fount of knowledge for all things, roar forth this once, and reveal thyself to us!" Flick. Flick. Flick. Eino walked a little closer to the portrait and poked it.
"Hey!" reprimanded the portrait. An old man with a fancy English styled mustache, very long with ribbons on the ends. "Mind ya!" The man said grumpily motioning for Eino to leave.
"Pardon me, O Great Teller, but we are on our way to find the great beast that has taken habitat within these castle walls! We must defeat it and bring peace to Camelot." He said kneeling and urging Toby to do the same.
"What rubbish is this! But you will leave me alone or I will drop this portrait right on top of that empty head of yours!" The man said adjusting the ribbons on his mustache and returning to his business.
"But if only you would take part in this quest, then you shall be glorified upon its completion and all the world will recognize you as the one who helped restore peace to the kingdom." Eino explained imploringly for the man's help.
"Oh, they would, wouldn't they?" He man said suspiciously, suddenly taking an interested in the quest. "The whole world, you mean to say? They would do so much as to recognize me as such. Yes, yes. A great beast you ask for?" He said attempting to recall anything in particular that could face such description, but 'a great beast' wouldn't do. "Nay, nay." The portrait object. "Do elaborate on this beast, go on, squire!"
"You see, this beast is gigantic. Yes, bigger than any men on earth! He has long fangs and claws. One should suppose that is breathes fire--"
"Well, does One suppose so?" The portrait interrupted.
"Suppose so what?"
"Does One suppose that it breathes fire?" He portrait barked impatiently.
"One does suppose sir. I suppose so, at least. As I was saying, as I suppose it does, besides supposing that it breathes fire it should also bear the strength of a hundred men... No, more than that!"
"Aha! I know this beast, I've seen it!" The man gave a single loud clap and he rejoined and drew closer to Eino (which didn't make a difference because he was still inside the portrait and no closer to Eino). "Yes, this beast walks within these walls..." He man said shivering. "It does indeed it does." He looked both sides to make sure no one was listening. "That Ministry man" He whispered.
"Calm down, Toby!" Eino said trying to control Toby's excitement. Now this was a very important bit of information, not to mention a terrible accusation. "Are you certain of this?" Eino didn't doubt it, he just wanted a confirmation.
"As sure as there are two ribbons decorating my mustache, and as sure as I am the most handsome man in the entire world because of them!"
Nothing could be more reassuring to Eino. "Thank you so much!" He said kneeling, and gesturing for Toby to mimic him. "Let's go, Toby."
"Don't forget about my world recogniztion, all those other promises, you hear. I shall remember you I've seen you walk around here before with a cactus on your hands!" Called the man as Eino and Toby walked away.
"How do you suppose we go about this, Toby?" Eino asked taking a seat on the corner of the hall with Toby beside him.

Perhaps he should have been paying more attention to the expressive cues the pony was displaying. Maybe then he would have put up more of a fight in keeping the beginning of the bouquet. As it was a startled yelp left him and his body jerked before stumbling forward, arms flailing as he tried to snatch it back. "Oyi! That's no way to say thank you! Ungrateful." Swipe. "Pony" Swipe and miss.

To snowball or not to snowball.

Kellen completed a circuit of the paddock and headed back in Sabel's direction, whapping the boy in the side of the head with the branch before frisking away again. As for Nelson, the calf noted the few pine needles that had remained in Sabel's hair and proceeded to goober-lick.

Between the pony and the cow he had no idea what to do. Except for flail a bit, dump the marshmallows as an alternative distraction for the slobbering tongue and bolt after the pony. He had worked hard on getting that branch, he wasn't about to just give it up to a strange pony. Not that he had any idea what to do when he caught up, but that was besides the point.
Quote:

He picked up his feet and lengthened his strides, matching Sabel's pace and keeping the branch juuuuuust out of reach of those fingers. Sure, Sabel was now running beside him, but he had more worry of Sabel stepping on his feet than the other way around.

He didn't really bother questioning the logic of why he was doing all this for a pine branch he could easily find another of, but he wasn't about to give up now.
In all the old westerns he had seen, mounting a horse was made to look easy. A horse that was bareback always provided some problems. But this was a pony and it was right beside him. There was always the chance it would work.
One moment of pure, Gryffindor stupidity on the move. Instead of swiping for the branch again, he latched his hand closest to the pony's head onto a thick part of its mane that wouldn't hurt it if he pulled and threw his other arm over the creature's midriff. Then it was a heave-ho and he was lying on his belly across the back of the horse, hanging on for dear life. Definitely not John Wayne.

Why was this one so special? Then again, this was the boy who'd named a school broom and tried to buy it at the end of his fourth year, so some things just had to be taken at face-value and not looked into too closely.
At the sudden grip to the mane and weight on his back, Kellen half-turned his head and eyed Sabel. Then he traded speed for bounce, performing an on-the-spot trot that popped his rider a good foot off his back before gravity thumped him back down again.

Thankfully less air somehow equaled locked muscles which meant a grip that wasn't about to let go. It did however mean he was rendered immobile for a moment and unable to move from his draped position over the creature's back.
And then there was that slight flicker of intelligent realization. Was it going to start bucking?
Quote:

Of course instant reaction was to snap his hand holding the mane up and try to swat or grab at the branch. And as that was his only point of leverage and security, gravity had the next laugh and dropped him hard onto his back into the relatively packed snow. Getting trampled apparently didn't occur to him as a possibility as he remained sprawled on his back, staring at the sky. "You are a deranged pony. Deranged you hear me?" And he might have tossed a handful of powdery snow at the legs of the creature alongside the statement.

With a groan, he rolled onto his side, preparing to get back to his feet to start the process over again. "Bloody ---STERN!?" Everything froze mid movement. Or rather it did before the instability of the awkward pause had him dropping back onto his back. And then he was scampering to his feet, half-surprised his eyes weren't left behind in the snow with how much they were bulging and staring at his friend. His friend where the pony was supposed to be.
"How are you -- what are you -- where's the pony?!" A couple quick turns on the spot had him confirming it; the pony was gone. Just gone. "Where?!"
This was it. He had snapped. Gone bonkers. Flipped the lid. Rolled over twice. Cracked his noggin. Entered the land of the strange. All for a pine branch.
I think it's safe to say Pony-Stern won that one..

And on top of that her hands were building to heat up very rapidly.

"What were you thinking? She was hurting me you annoying little, ugh. I'm a get you, you little SNAKE!!"

The last thing to form on Violet was a beak, the complete alter-ego of Miss Violet Le Veela!

"RUT ROW!" Selina screamed. What were they going to do?

The fire around her hands grew bigger and she lifted her arm and threw a fireball at them. Then soon after multiple fireballs began shooting out of Violet's hands and shooting right for them.

It was like an old cartoon, they both could not move from the spot they were Selina was holding Elektra. Selina kept running but she seemed to just move in place. Then finally getting some momentum Selina ran with Elektra still in arms around the tower, "JINKIES!"

Come to think of it...this was almost too much like Shaggy and Scooby. "Fire. She's got fire!! RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!" Elektra shouted in Selina's ear as she watched Violet shooting her fire at them and just watching the ground from Selina getting the momentum of running while still holding Elektra. Wow this girl is strong!

She took after them swiftly darting around them repeatedly. Violet continuously kept throwing fireballs at them, another screech to let them know that she was still after them. Seeing that little fireballs weren't working, she threw her arms up above her and she made a HUGE fireball, then she launched it at the both of them!

For the love of all things-" Elektra looked up at the huge fireball and ELektra began to stutter and quickly army-rolled her way away from the launched fire ball the size of the moon coming at Selina and Elektra. She heard Selina scream off the top of her lungs and she raises her eyebrow. "What does that even mean Selina?!"

Then her wings folded in and disappeared, the fire around her hands distinguished themselves and her bird head was gone and Violet's blonde locks reappeared. After that whole thing, it completely took a lot out of Violet and that had never EVER happened to her before..until now...thanks to Selina and Elektra. From then on people around her would really need to be careful not to upset her or anger her.

The suddenly Violet fell to the ground. In moments she seemed to transfigure back to her normal self. She was still laying on the ground in what looked like a sleeping state.
"Merlin!" Selina ran over to Violet and tried to awake her, "Come on Violet, be okay. Please be okay."

"Selina, wait. Should we really be near her? I mean did you not see what just happened a few seconds ago? What if she is trying to trick us? Maybe we should poke her."

She is the Devil's child and I am not going to touch that-that thing!" Elektra said whimpering as she looked at Violet. Elektra began to think then takes out her wand and slowly walked towards Violet and then began to poke Violet's face with her wand. "Vi? Are you alive and demon free?"

Characters:
Sierra Greingoth (Anna Banana)
Lola Jones (dingDong)
Summary: Lola (who appears to be CRAZY), approaches Sierra wanting to be BFFs. Only, she's under the impression that "Hufflepuff" is another word for BFF and keeps yelling out, "I am YOUR Hufflepuff!" Sierra, not wanting to reveal her real name, comes up with a fake name to tell Lola. The problem is, the first name that comes to her mind and out her mouth is Hecate Lafay.
Text Cut: I am YOUR Hufflepuff!

Like an animal catching its prey, Lola eyed how the girl was a bit freaked out by her sudden interest. She looked a bit hurt, like, why jerk away from a new best friend?! Maybe this girl didn't even have friends. Maybe she was just a bit mean to new people. But no, the second she showed her fiery temper, it was Lola's SOOOOOLE mission to befriend this girl. But her eyes were in utter confusion when she mentioned Hufflepuff.
"Huffley-puffley? What are you talking about?" she questioned. WAIT.
Hold up.
Maybe this "Hufflepuff" in her own slang term meant "NEW BEST FRIEND" and so, with this thought forming in her mind, Lola nodded. "Yes, I am YOUR Hufflepuff, of course!" She grinned and then sighed that she didn't have a hold of this girl anymore. What if she just decided to run away? Would she ever meet her again? NO! Lola had the UUUUURGE to cling to this girl--to cage her and to make sure she stays with her all the time. AND BE HER NEWEST FRIEND!
"Hogwarts?" Why yes that school... "I will be! Are you?" And without giving her the time for an answer, she said, "MERLIN'S BEARD YOU ARE! We're going to be the bestest of friends. So hi, my name is," ENUNCIATION, "Lo-la Jo-o-o-o-nes! Who are you, BFF?"

Well, she would definitely being a Puffer Child if it was Hogwarts she went to, which she so obviously didn't. "It's a--ohh, nevermind. Don't even bother worrying about it," she said. The less conversation she made with this girl, the easier it would be to just walk away in a few seconds.
Hopefully...
Sierra paused and blinked her eyes. Then with the blankest look she could possibly give, she just stared at the girl confusion. "Wait a second. Did you just say you're my Hufflepuff?" she finally asked. With a sarcastic laugh, she added, "No thanks. I don't need anymore Puffers in my life than I already have."
Sierra groaned when the girl mentioned she was an up and coming Hogwarts student. Fantastic. She made a note to remember the girl's face and stay as far away from her as humanly possible. ...and now she was asking for her name?! She couldn't possibly tell her that she was Sierra Greingoth--the girl would never ever leave her alone!!! Then, without another second's thought, Sierra suddenly spit out the first name that came to her mind.
"My name is---Hecate Lafay."
As soon as the words were out of her mouth, Sierra winced. Why--WHHHYYYY--had that name come out?! She could have made up some random name, but no--on the spur of the moment, she just had to blurt out her Potion professor's name.
Great.

Lola held her hands clasped together, so they wouldn't dash out and grab for the girl on the first step of escape--she wouldn't leave Lola right? She had her doubts and so she just kept a straight gaze at her, very focused. Yes, well if she were to leave without knowing her name even... she would definitely reach out, grab her, cage her, and then force it all out of her and become this girl's BEST friend. There was great emphasis on best. "But--wha? Uhh," had she disappointed this girl because she didn't know what a Hooflepoofley was?! Oh no!
"Wait--" she stopped herself when the girl began speaking again, a bit worried, and slightly nodded when she asked if she did call her her Hufflepuff. Yes, Lola was quite PROUUUUD to be this little girl's Hufflepuff. B-F-F, oh my, the words just forming right from her mind.
Griiiiiiin.
Her grin DIEEEEED. "No thanks?! PLEASE! I CAN DO IT! I can be your Hufflepuff! I can be your Hufflepuff, forever, darling! Trust me!" Creepy? No. NO! And her hands started to twitch, wanting to hooooold and to huuuuug this girl--a certification of BEST FRIENDSHIP!
Hecate? Hecate Lafay?
"HECATE?" She questioned, her eyes widening from the name. "What a BEAUTIFUL name, Hecate, so beautiful indeed! Lafaaaaay! LOVELY! HECATEEEEEE LAFAAAAAAAY," she sang (a bit loud, actually) and then she couldn't help it anymore. Her arms immediately grabbed this girl's arms and then she did the most dramatic thing she'd ever done in public. In an excited manner, Lola Jones took her arms and then jumped up an down, turning the girl, DAAAANCING with the girl. "Oh, I promise I'll be your Hufflepuff, FOREVER, Hecate! Forever!"
She meant it with all her undying passionate heart.

Well, it was named after a person, but that's beside the point. When you get to Hogwarts, Hufflepuff is one of the four houses you can be sorted into." So, please, in the name of all things good and magical, stop saying you'll be my Hufflepuff!
Sierra's eyes grew extra, extra wide when the girl started yelling out Professor Lafay's name. Flailing her arms a little, Sierra quickly looked around to double-check...then triple-check...that no one had been listening in. The last thing she needed was for the actual Hecate Lafay to overhear. "Okay, you know what? Don't call me that," she said. "Forget I even told you my name. Please. Don't yell it out again either."
Sierra jerked her hands away from the girl. Was she trying to dance with her?!"Okay, what do you want?!" she sternly asked.

Calmed down, taking inhales and exhales.
"I'm sorry, Hecate!" She did feel a bit offended. But her eyes then studied her in truth, for her real reason was to see what kind of reaction she'd done. And with a few scribbles in her head, she quickly reverted back to reality and then let the girl jerk away from her arms. "Oh so it doesn't mean--..." BEST FRIEND?! She could have fallen back and then be moved to tears by her sentences but no, her passion was strong and this girl would simply not cooperate!
"Wait what? A house?! OH! Hogwarts, Hogwarts..." she hummed the word under her breath, a bit distracted, and then returned, "Are you in Hufflepuff, Hecate?! And what kind of house is this? Like a complex? A small house? Big one? You know because my aunt has an apartment and she considers it as a house! And there's only four houses for the entire school?! My my my, Hecate, they must be HUMONGOUS houses! My house," she started to explain, "is very large as well, and we have all sorts of things, like a chimney, and well we have a kitchen! And in the kitchen, we've got a wicked oven and a stove, and then there's the living room... Does it sound Hufflepuffley too you? I hope it does, because I'm your--" Oh right. It didn't mean best friend. Hmm.
Her explanation went on and on, only stopping to get a few breaths inbetween.
"Don't call you what?" She was CONFUSED. "Hecate? But it's your name, isn't it? Hecate Lafay. It's pretty lovely. It's so pretty! Way better than mine," she paused, "I'm only Lola Jones!" She posed in front of this girl--hoping that whenever she heard the name Lola Jone, her image would etch into her mind as a beautiful lady--BECAUSE SHE WAS! Errrr.
She eyed this Hecate... wondering what she was trying to do. What did she want? It was so simple. Wasn't it obvious from the beginning.
And then in a creepy, yet happy tone, she stated, "I want to become your very best friend. Why can't you just let it happen, Hecate?"JUST LET THE THING HAPPEN.

Jimbo Farley, people. The 17 year old who is probably never going to give up acting like a 9 year old.
I've made the text of the relevant post huuuuge. The other two are just included for context.
SPOILER!!: Quotes

True, he'd lost some of his fourth year flair but that didn't mean he couldn't do similar things. He wasn't completely...normal. Yet.
...
At least, he hoped he wasn't and wouldn't ever be.
Normal people were...weird.
With that confusing thought, he sat himself right in the middle of the room, on the ground with his legs crossed. If people wanted to get by they would just have to walk around him. As usual, he took some candy out of his pocket - a chocolate frog - and began to eat it, staring at the fireplace a bit farther ahead of him. He felt his turtle, Pebbles, crawl out of his pocket, still munching on a licorice wand.
He'd probably end up tripping someone where he was sitting.
Oh well.

"Hey!" Savannah called out form her seat. She couldn't stand a person like that, doing whatever he wants. "If you want to sit or eat somewhere, why don't you go to a place where you won't block someone's way!" Savannah tried not to sound mean. Let's just say that it looks.

Then he proceeded to lay in it, all his limbs spread wide and taking up as much space as possible.
How did she like THAT?
Talking to him that way. Hmph. He was in seventh year, much, much older than her. And she had the nerve...hmph.

Legend's speech in the Gyffindor common room all about why he lost points in the Great Hall. SO FUNNY!
SPOILER!!: Legend's Speech

Without any thought Legend jumped up onto the coffee table and began to wave his hands around like mad. "ALRIGHT LISTEN UP! I WANT EVERYONE'S ATTENTION FOR A FEW MINUTES!" His voice boomed loudly through the room without even a charm. Looking around to make sure at least some people were paying attention he began to speak. "Hello. Good evening. Now many of you may know me by my name- Legend Chosen. While others might know me as 'that guy who lost of 15 points at the opening feast.' And that's pretty true. I AM that guy who lost 15 points at the feast. HOWEVER, to be really honest with you I think I did you all I favor. I did not lose points for speaking back, or pulling pranks, or flirting with Professors." Flirting with Professors. That was just mad. "I lost points for something that there was no rule agaisnt. I lost points because I sat down with the staff on the other side of the staff table. So in all honesty I did you lot a favor. Now you know it's agaisnt the rules, whereas it was in that uncertain gray area before. So BE HAPPY and stop acting like a bunch of whiny brats." And that was all. He jumped down from the table, hoping that, that was the end of everything.
After all it was so easy to earn 15 points back.

Like being able to stand for what you believe right. Like being able to protect friends. Like being able to speak your true mind and show your true personality. If one is unable to do those but he has all the cups, do you think he'd be a worthy man? Not at all. Even Ravenclaw birdies do not care about points that much. I do pretty much understand you and one's honour and true personality is always more important than all the stupid cups in the world.''
Yea, that was his point. Plus 15 points were like a knut next to a bag of Galleons when compared to the points he had lost last term. Hehehhe.

Ravenclaw, which was synonymous with intelligence, creativity, and curiosity all in one. Now, three more words. THREE MORE WORDS. He began drumming the desk with his fingers impatiently until it came to him: spaz! That was another obvious one that he should have grasped quickly. He thought up the last two on the spot (cat for his new pet, Bree, and lion for his friend, Brae) and began to get to work.
SPOILER!!: Calculations
CURLY=3+3+9+3+7=25

CAT=3+1+2=6

As Kurumi Hollingberry's work was displayed to the class, Theodore peered over the shoulders of a few students to take a look at her. She was quite the smart cookie; he almost wondered why she hadn't been placed into Ravenclaw. But alas, there was no time for thinking of the new teacher's pet at the moment. Now, they were onto sentences! Dipping his quill into his ink pot anew, he began to write once more. What would be the perfect sentence for him to use? Then, it hit him: I am an eccentric. Easy enough, right?
SPOILER!!: Calculations
I am an eccentric.
I = 9
AM = 1+4 = 5
AN = 1+5 = 6
ECCENTRIC = 5+3+3+5+5+2+9+9+3 = 44
9+5+6+44 = 64

Kurumi heard the faint call of Selina...coming from somewhere above her...
O___________o
MERLIN'S WOOL SOCKS!
"Selina! Don't you dare go towards the light!" she squeaked shaking her finger in the direction she thought Selina was in. Sadly, she was shaking her finger at an empty seat in the stands instead of behind and slightly above her.
Shaken, not stirred. That was certainly how she felt. More like she had been through the spin cycle in a washing machine for several hours.
It was then that she noticed Selina sitting on the back of Simon's broom. "Oh no! Not you too!?" she squeaked loudly as her eyes spun around in her head as she attempted to regain some focus.
When the number of Simons went to 4, then to 3, then to 2, and eventually back to 1, Kurumi's cheeks flushed and she tried to climb over the mess of benches and fabric to reach the two. "Thank Merlin! You are both alive!"
This made me ROFL so much when I read it, i so LOVED the Bond quote.

So Zara talks about how much she wants a chainsaw and now Nika is convinced that Shaw is raising a student chainsaw army.

It seemed strong enough to ruin the gate of her mansion. That way she'd be able to go out, and probably end up somewhere random. Yeap, that evil look on her face was visible now. Then she noticed that she'd been lost in her thoughts too much.
"Oops. Hope I didn't scare you there." Then she giggled.

"Oh." Nika replied with a bit of worry attached to it. "That's pleasant." She shuddered as she had an image of Zara with a chainsaw. Maybe Shaw was planing to raise a student chainsaw army!?! Was Nika to be recruited next?!?! O.O NOOOOO! Never. Nika will not be a chainsaw drone. NO! Nika will never join.

WAIT.
Chainsaw?
Ask Chainshaw for a chainsaw!?!
AHA! So shaw is starting up an evil chainsaw army.
Knew it.
But wait!?! Does this mean that both Zara AND Tayla are apart of it? So it's worse than she thought.
IT'S SPREADING!!!
And now they are trying to recruit Nika?!
Oh, Mr. "just" Chainshaw Nika is onto you and your evil schemes of chainshaw armies.
She just starred at Zara with her eyes wide open. Chainsaw bad. Bad Zara. Chainsaw no good. Chainsaw evil. Chainsaw not good for you. Chainsaw not good for me. CHAINSAW NOT GOOD FOR NO ONE!
"So you admit it? You're on his evil chainsaw army?" Nika looked around her just to make sure that the rest of 'em weren't going to surround her. "Please don't join it Zara! You're too good for them."

*Ahem. Cough.*
Then she managed to put on a serious face. "Nika, if you don't do it, your sister will pay the consequences." HAHAHAHAHA, Zara was all laughs inside of her and was trying to stop the smug slowly appearing on her face. To do so, her lips are now pursed, so no one could really tell.

"Zara. This is no laughing matter!" She looked at the firstie who seemed to be "humored" by the urgent situation.
Nika didn't know how else to convey the message to Zara. She grabbed onto her fellow Gryffindor's shoulder and began to shake her back and forth softly. "Zara snap out of it! You're not evil I know your not! You're only brainwashed." She looked into her eyes for a hint of the "real Zara". "Zara I know you're in there somewhere. Behind the brainwashed evil army minion you're there I know it!"
She looked at Zara a bit appalled that she was threatening Nika with her sister. "What? Zara no! You know how much she means to me!"
Nika was starting to freak out a bit. But things weren't that bad were they? "Okay, 1. Chainsaw Army is real
2. Zara is on chainsaw army
3. Chainsaw army leader is the "chainshaw" himself
4. Chainsaw minions are brainwashed
5. They're recruiting people
6. They're recruiting ME!!
7. If I don't join they'll take my sister" She thought. Okay so maybe they were that bad. "Think Nika think... You've seen plenty of zombie taking over movies..." She started thinking out loud not aware of what she was doing. At this point she was pacing back and forth with her hands on her head.
"Oh no. In all of those Zombie movies someone's brain gets eaten right?""What if they're planning to eat my brain?!" She turned back to Zara, "Please don't eat my brain!"

SPOILER!!: Legend teaching Orlando how to be a MAN

"I am not scared! I just don't like being wet at 5 in the morning." he retorted, going for the 'hmpf and crossing your arms across your chest' thing but realizing he was in the water again, he decided against it in order to survive and not drown.
He stared, a little skeptical, at the boy in front of him. "Swimming makes you a man?" he asked. "Seriously, Legend? Isn't the arrival of chest hair and chin beard suppose to do that?"
The Gyffindor almost felt offended really. DID Legend mean, Orlando wasn't a man already?

"That's nice! It's probably not 5am anymore though. Probably like 5:20am. Soooo QUIT wasting time! We could have already been halfway across." Legend sighed. How was he going to teach Lando stuff if the boy refused to listen? What kind of mentor would he be then? A bad one?
He really didn't want to be a bad mentor.
"Overcoming your fears makes you a man." Legend gave Lando a look as he began to speak about chest hair and all of that. He opened his mouth wide, as if warning Lando about the volume that was going to come out. "WELL THAT STUFF USUALLY DOESN'T MAKE YOU A MAN WHEN YOU'RE BLOND LIKE ME AND THEY ARE HARD TO SEE!" He yelled loudly. YEAH. Soo swimming. Overcoming your fears. All that stuff. "So just listen! Getting hair, is getting hair! Who cares. Doing something that no one else has the guts to? That is what makes you awesome."

Orlando felt bad for a second, Legend was trying hard to get him to swim and be super ultra hero-like but Orlando kept on being a sissy. Come to think of it, all super-hero-like people went through stuff which were harder than this - so much harder.
But the cold water .. at 5 .. well not 5 anymore. DID THEY GO THROUGH THAT?
And then Legend started talking; about blond chest hair and guts and being a man. Orlando Renaldi was in awe. AWE at the awesomeness of the man that was Legend FREAKIN Chosen! He was a true mentor! TRUE, EPIC COOL MAN - that Orlando looked up to. If he wasn't shivering to possible hypothermia, the boy would have tears in his eyes -
- The boy brought his hand up and saluted the older Gryffindor in front of him. "Legend, YOU ARE EPIC. You are the pants that everyone talks about. THE MERLIN PANTS, LEGEND! You are the epicpants that Merlin wears, YO! YES YOU ARE THOSE AMAZING PANTS!"The boy enthusiastically appreciated Legend, in his own crazy language. Resisting the urge to hug him, the boy said announced: "Lets SWIM!" with a firm nod and started swimming forward.

SPOILER!!: Josh & Simon Pre-Suprise Simon's B-day Party

Hopefully the lion boy was a good enough actor for that. ''But i do warn you, captain, don't try to go all rawr on me about the possibilities of trouble. I guarantee you no one is going to catch me with it.'' Then stopping in front of the very spot where the door to the Room of Requirement supposed to be, he looked back at his friend, the familiar smirk, which always appeared on his face when up to something, glued on his face. ''And you are to tell no one about what are you going to experince now. No one. Not even to the precious future girlfriend. Understood, captain?''
Probably these were enough and maybe more than enough to create an air of mystery above them. Yup, it should be. So deciding that way, Josh indicated his best friend to follow right before pushing the door open. ''Silence and vigilance.'' he whispered pretending to get a hold of his wand while stepping inside. And once he was inside the room, he waited for Simon to follow rather impatiently. ''C'mon you tortoise snail. Do you always need a broom to act fast? Mooooove your bottom. Girls don't like guys who walk slowly.''

"Understood," he assured his companion though he did raise his eyebrow at the mention of future girlfriend which stopped him in his tracks long enough for Josh to get impatient.
"I'm coming ...I'm coming," he replied with a shake of the head as he followed his friend into the room not seeing what could possibly be the rush. Whatever Josh had found would keep...wouldn't it? Simon wasn't sure but he certainly couldn't tell anything at the moment as the room was pitch black with the only light coming from the corridor but soon vanishing again at the door closed.
"Josh...what's going on?" he asked with a sigh just as a familiar voice cast Lumos bathing the whole room in light again and causing the seventh year to raise an arm as if to shield as he blinked in surprise.
I just couldn't resist - especially because I just LOVED the reaction that Simon gave when Josh said "future girlfriend" since that isn't an obviously hinted statement...saying something like "i know you like her" or anything like that. sarcasm

Simon looked at the Professor and raised his hand before saying. "Professor a Charm is something that comes out of your wand." Simon smiled. "Though sometimes if your angry you can make a charm happen without using your wand." Simon then thought of something. "Or do you mean Charm as in the way you smile because people say you charmed them and that's why they fell in love with you."
