The Purple Sleeping Bag Thread

[Cassirin]

Rae hurried into the Great Hall and eyed the milling students. She hopped up on the dias and held up her hands. "Alright, students... if I could have your attention, please. I'm sure you're aware that something has occured in the Common Rooms. We're currently investigating the disruption and trying to figure out exactly what happened and what we need to do to get you back in there. For now, we'll ask that you sleep here in the Great Hall. Prefects and professors are on duty to make sure that you're safe and following the rules. Any professors who wish to assist in investigating may join me at the staff table."

She clapped her hands and a pile of plush purple sleeping bags appeared.

Lo saw Falas was already in... well..."bed" when she had finally gotten in. She squinted when she saw a head close by disappear. Cree? she thought to herself. She shrugged, too tired to see if it was him and too afraid to find out it wasn't. Mort, however, had no problem and as soon as she had settled in her sleeping bag, she found her furry friend was missing. "Oh no!" she whispered, and looked up to find Mort had curled up on Cree's chest.

Cree jerked when he felt a furry figure rest on top of his chest. He opened his eyes, slightly afraid of what he might see, and laughed quietly when he saw two big eyes staring back at him. "Hey Mort," he said, still laughing. "I bet you're in trouble. Where's Leila?" he said as he pet Mort and he sat up, looking around, particularly in the area Falas was in, seeing as they were best friends. "Leila?" he whispered towards a familiar looking girl.

Lo sighed with relief when she heard Cree's voice. Slowly, she sat up. "I'm so glad that was you and not someone else," she whispered. She looked to Mort. "What did I tell you about doing that!" she scolded him quietly, then turned back to Cree. "Sorry, I guess he just likes you, that's all. I don't really blame him," she said smiling, but her smile quickly faded. Did I just say that? she asked herself. "Sorry, I didn't mean that. Well I did, but like a friend. No offense I mean you're very likeable I just-" she stopped and huffed, finding herself at a loss of words.

Cree smiled. "I know Leila. Will..." he said, his smile sort of going fake at the thought of Will. "When do I get to meet him by the way?" he whispered, almost beginning to think that this Will guy wasn't real, though Falas had mentioned him so he must be. Cree clenched his teeth at the fact that Leila was so into Will and yet Will hadn't written her or made at least any effort to see her. He would if he was in that position...

[HaefaLasweN]

Falas looked over Zekk's shoulder and spotted Lo talking with Cree. Grinning slightly she thought about what might have happened between those two if Lo wasnt going out with Will. Cree, was a nice guy, she could totally understand why Lo liked him. She just hoped that Will wont end up heart broken. Sighing quietly, she looked back at Zekk still with an innocent look on her face as if she didnt have anything to do with Plum finding himself on Zekk's face.

[DecemberGirl]

Lo could tell that Will was a sore subject, so she avoided the question. "Uhm...I'm not sure. It's late though, we should get some sleep. I'd offer taking Mort back but I'm almost positive he'll just scuttle back to you so..." she smiled. "Sweet dreams!"

[Hermowninny]

Cree frowned, but let the conversation go. "Goodnight Leila," he said softly, almost to himself, as he looked down at her sleepy figure. He lowered his head and kissed Leila lightly on the forehead before lowering his head completely onto his pillow, falling asleep almost instantly.

Nevertheless she continued to play along, "By the time i am done, you'll feel much much better" she added as she induced slight pressure to both ends of his forehead and initiated muscle circulation changing her fingers position around his head making sure she doesn't miss a spot.

Nik gave up the act, but only slightly and opened his eyes to look up at Lua. He watched her for a while as she looked elsewhere and smiled when he noticed her glasses slipping down the bridge of her nose as she bent over him. "I think I can get used to this...maybe I should bring you around with me everywhere I go."

When he reached the boy he messed up his hair and grinned. "Hi there Tabby. How you doin' this wonderfull evening?" he asked the boy and then looked at Rave. "Hello to you too miss"..

Lori rolled her eyes at the sound of Transt's voice. She then let out a giggle and said, "Shut up! C'mon over here before I change my mind and give this bag to someone else," She then patted the sleeping bag beside her and cuddled up in her own.

Lua not noticing that Nik was watching her for a while, couldn't help but grin on Nik's comment, she imagined herself as a handbag being carried by Nik everywhere he went. Giggling slightly at the thought, she pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose and whispered in Nik's ears "Mr. Vancoutt, you are a very naughty naughty boy, so which part can you get used to, the massage or me protecting you from your fangirls", Lua pinched his right cheek softly as she pulled away.

Nik's cheeks pinkened slightly from her words and then from her fingers pinching him. He reached up and grab the offending hand before she could move it out of his reach and held it captive in his own. "Well, Miss Stone...they are both very...attractive aspects that I wouldn't mind having around. Although..." he said as an after-thought, "who would protect me from you?"

[paranoia]

Sol woke up and sat up. She looked over to Nik and Lua and can't belive it. They were flirting! "Hey you two lovebirds" she said and took another choco frog out of her bag (OOC no worry Nabs it will not jump on you ) and then she added on the protection note "nobody can protect you from Lua" she bit in the choco frog " once she had decided to get something, you have no chance to escape." She grinned over to Lua and blinked.

Turning towards Tina, he arched an eyebrow, as he entered the room almost fed up with the mass of purple. "Would this be a place to your suiting?" Evan grinned, scanning the many faces nearby. He knew the entire school should've been there, but then again he couldn't think of a better place to talk at the moment, with the idea of the impending danger roaming the school. Taking her hand, so they wouldn't get separated in all the commotion, he led her in-between sleeping bags and dozing faces, his mind faraway.

Tina followed him in somewhat of a good mood. Something about him always seemed right, so maybe there wouldn’t be any trouble…Maybe this won’t turn out to be bad at all… As they finally stopped, she was a bit surprised at his choice of setting. What’d you expect? He’s into prefects…Following rules probably comes natural, she thought a bit annoyed at the idea. “Erm, yeah I guess. A professor would’ve probably forced us to come in here anyway,” she said hiding what she really had been thinking. Smiling and following him as he took her hand, she wondered how many people were really sleeping.

"Uh-huh." Evan concurred, zig-zagging amid sleepy faces, and leading Tina to the left corner of the room, where he had spotted more than one free sleeping bag. Perfect setting... less chances of making a scene... Evan thought to himself, not particularly sure of who would make a scene on who, but smiling nonetheless at this particularly intriguing prospect. Coming to a stop at the far corner of the Great Hall, he bent over, smiling, as if in invitation of settling down. He realized just how unconventional this conversation would turn out to be, but then again, everything about the two of them together had been far from normal. Slomping down on his own sleeping bag, and glancing at the bewitched ceiling, he dreamily added: "Quite comfy, eh?"

[lala_favehp]

Lala enters the great Hall for the first time. Since the common rooms are not available at the moment.. they were told to stay here instead. Great. This happened before.. she thought. She was sure of that when Emma told her about it after reading the Hogwarts, A History.. Lala looked around, she can see sleeping bags, and all of them are purple. Okay.. so where are my fellow Gryffindors? she asked herself. Now a bit tired.. at last she found a spot to occupy..

“Um, sure…I guess,” she said as she scanned the room for familiar faces. Slouching down on a nearby sleeping bag as well, she turned to him as random thoughts began to grab ahold of her attention. “Before we talk about anything you have planned, Can I ask you one question?” she asked watching him closely.

“Why have you stayed so hidden all these years? I mean, I just don’t get it. How have you changed from Mr-Behind-the-Curtains to Mr. Big-Shot? And, from that how can you deal with all the changes?” she asked going off in her own world. She blinked and continued to keep her gaze on him, hoping he wouldn't take anything offensively.

Rolling on one side and resting his head on his elbow, so that he could watch her better, Evan stifled a yawn. He wasn't exactly sleepy, but the atmosphere and the ceiling above induced a sort of cosy state. "Sure. Ask ahead." he acknowledged, taking his free hand to his hair and smoothening it, in a random way. Once Tina had finished her question, he laughed heartily, allowing any traces of sleep to go away. "Mr. Big-Shot? Far from it, I'd say." he recovered from the swift glee which had taken over him, and seemed to weigh her statement more thoroughly. "But I see what you mean. And let's just say I've always found it much more pleasant behind the scenes..." Evan said broodingly. He wondered if they were going to be fully honest this time round; something inside of him still doubted that. "Yet I don't think I can answer your question. Don't think I know how, to be honest..." he figured out that what he was saying was true. He had no idea how it had all turned out the way it did, or why he was getting all the attention - most of it uncalled for - that he was receiving. He looked past Tina, lost in reverie.

Watching him get comfortable, Tina shrugged and stayed in the same position. “But, I mean you have…Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against it, but I guess I’m in somewhat of a similar position. Except, with me…it’s the other way around,” she added openly.

“Last year, I was probably everything you assume I am right now. But, I’m just… not the same anymore, I guess. But, for some reason, it doesn't seem right,” she said as she let out a stifled laugh. Annoyed at her own babble, she tore her gaze from him and looked back up at the ceiling.

“But, anyway…enough of that…What exactly were your intentions in asking me to join you? That is, aside from hearing my on-going babble about nothing sensible,” she said still staring at the ceiling.

Quote:

Lua began day dreaming after Nik posed that threatening question, not to come to her senses until her leg got stammered on by either Amber or Nik, or even both. Moaning at the pain she rubbed her legs slightly "Amber you almost broke my legs" she hissed at her.

"Well, I'm sorry... she said a little confused. Why was she being so snarky, all of a sudden? She didn't dig much deeper for she felt she had an idea.

Quote:

"Nik you alright" Lua asked crawling towards Nik, pushing amber's hand out of the way. Once she reached Nik she gave him a faint smile and brushed his bangs away from his forehead softly.

Amber stood for a second and blinked. Yep, her idea was right. Why had Lua taken her politeness in wanting to make up for the situation as anything more? Oh well, it didn't matter. She just rolled her eye's at Lua's obvious lure to Nik.

Quote:

Nik was still embarrassed at having Amber fall on top of him, but quickly pushed the emotion away, and instead laughed at the events. "It's okay, Amber, I'm not mortally wounded, in fact, it was exciting" he said with a wink in her direction, smirking at Lua's reaction.

Compared to the current situation, this was highly funny. Amber laughed. She turned to Lua, "Again, sorry about your legs, but it seems they're well enough to support his head..." she teased, as she went and sat next to Sol.

Quote:

Nik's cheeks pinkened slightly from her words and then from her fingers pinching him. He reached up and grab the offending hand before she could move it out of his reach and held it captive in his own. "Well, Miss Stone...they are both very...attractive aspects that I wouldn't mind having around. Although..." he said as an after-thought, "who would protect me from you?"

Amber tried her best to keep the flirtatious dialogue out of her head. It was enough to drive her crazy. She wished she hand a dung-bomb at the moment, but Lua was her friend, and Nik was nice enough...Oh well, I'll just to take out my annoyance on someone else... she thought as she looked around the Great Hall.

But then, Nik made a remark so casually...and yet it seemed so true...

Quote:

Although..." he said as an after-thought, "who would protect me from you?"

Amber laughed so hard, her stomach hurt. She didn't want to wake any sleeping students, so quickly threw her hand to cover her mouth and fell down to the sleeping bag beneath her. She looked up at Sol, with tears in her eyes from laughter.

Evan's eyes narrowed as he heard her utter a confession of sorts... in any case, the most sincere thing he thought he had heard her say to him. He didn't quite know what to feel, nor how to act around her. "What made you change? And since we're talking about change, what was it with the make-over since our meeting in Diagon Alley?" he asked with a smile. He recalled that day as if it were yesterday, and sort of missed her brownish hair. Not that he was going to let her know of that particular aspect. As Tina turned towards the ceiling, he took the time to glance around them, but found nothing and no one of interest. He pondered well her last question. "Oh, my intentions were good, that's a certain. I wanted us to have a decent conversation, seeing as though we keep our social interaction quite interrupted. Plus you never told me why you were so interested in me and my... family connections." Evan mentioned the last part, a bit too insinuatingly, his eyes not yet torn from the dark ceiling.

[Symphora]

Symphora and Ebony walked back into the purple sleeping bag area again.She was glad they managed to fing her grandfather's locket.They walked to the corner of the hall where Symphora was sleeping there tonight.They sat comfortably onto her sleeping bag.
''Thanks, Ebony for helping me...finding this locket...'' said Symphora as she thank Ebony.

[paranoia]

Sol and Amber couldn't stop laughing. They were sitting on their sleeping bags and Sol saw that a few students around them are looking over to her and Amber. Sol took a deep breath to calm down and whiped her tears away. "O.k. ..." she was still gasping for breah and pointed to Nik and Lua "should we bring you two antidote for love potion or is this serious?"

[Lady Marmalade]

"No problem." Ebony said with a smile. "So how have you been?"
