What in Merlin's Beard . . .?! (Term 13) A bit confused about the plot? Housemates talking about a mysterious something going bump in the night? Here's where you can catch up on happenings around the Castle, Diagon Alley, and Hogsmeade -- Out of Character of course. That means that unless your student character heard this stuff from other students, your student character doesn't know about it. Oh, and a reminder to all to only post updates on the school plot here. Chat goes in the school chat thread. Have fun! _________________________________ The school term has barely ended and the events from the past term continue to unfold as the summer holiday inches to a close. Diagon Alley *The Wedding: Professors Doyle Branxton and Cassandra Rae are finally married over the summer holiday and have a public wedding reception at the Leaky Cauldron. However, their happiness is rudely interrupted by an article in the Daily Prophet that contains distressing news. There is a mixed reaction in the room to the article. *An Unexpected Encounter: Anjelica Lainey unexpectedly bumps into an old foe - Voldemortist. A lengthy conversation between the two happens, with Voldemortist (who last term was disguised as a Slytherin student named Matt) who compliments Lainey on her History of Magic lessons. Lainey emerges a bit shaken from the encounter. Hogwarts Express *Another Year Begins: Students and a few staff enjoyed a relatively uneventful trip to the school. New friends were made, old friends reunited, and new rivalries were born. Sorting Feast *Welcome to another year at Hogwarts!: Headmistress Rae welcomed everyone to a new term and introduced new members of the staff. However, she could not avoid the burning question that was in everyone's mind - is the school safe? Term 13 *A Repeat of Last Term?: Students from all houses can't seem to grasp the concept of earning and not losing points. Brawls, bickering, and hexing each other and the professors is not the way to win the House Cup! *Mysterious Notes Return: After two terms of silence, another note has been found by the ever-elusive Colonel Mustard and Miss Scarlett. The notes were left in the hallways and at the House tables in the Great Hall. *"Wear Shoes": Say it isn't so, Headmistress! Samea strikes an enticing deal with Professor Rae (sole haunting priviledges of the Third Floor corridor for the remainder of the school term) in return for doing the Headmistress's biding. The pesky poltegeist was quick to visit every professor and delivered the notice of a secret meeting in the staff lounge. Samea couldn't help but remind the professors to "wear shoes." *"When 7 ate 9" - The Meeting: Staff members debate over the fate of the Book of Mysteria. Verbal jabs are tossed back and forth between a few, and even one professor finds everyone suspicious. Too bad there is only one perfect 7 in the bunch. But all eccentricities aside, the fate of the book lies in their hands. *Cast Your Vote!: Samea has set up an impromptu polling booth on the Third Floor corridor and is yelling at the students to vote on the fate of the Book of Mysteria. When the pesky poltergeist's motives are questioned by Kay Harrison of Ravenclaw, it's answers are cryptic regarding the possible fate of Deputy Headmistress, Angelica Lainey. |
Diagon Alley has opened and events are already beginning to unfold. Quote:

Sorting Feast Speech The Headmistress's speech: Quote:

There was a fight in the Halls between a Slytherin named Raeden and a gryffindor named Ebony and a hufflepuff named Vruk and james.They were all left off with a warning..The Slytherins lost points because a girl snuck into the boy's dorms.Ryan of hufflepuff and James of ravenclaw got Detention for being in the staffroom.I don't think they lost any points yet.Professor Mao-MacDougal got the letter from Vannacutt.Is it from a lover? |
Seems that Huffie prefect Lee misunderstood what Huffie Prefect Nik told him, and went to Professor Macdougal's office to ask her about the supposed relationship between her and Nik's father. After updating Nik about his conversation, an argument between the two boys broke out. It probably would have ended with just verbal yelling, had several Slytherins not decided to get involved by making their spying obvious, then Rave (Raider) came along and she and Lee exchanged words about the attack of last term and Fran (dracoscutie) attacked another Slytherin. Why try for interhouse unity when even people sharing a house can't get along? Sheesh. Ending of my personal comments, Professor Macdougal (I am so sorry Peony if I am not spelling her name right >.<), upon hearing the commotion, stormed out screaming. Professor Opteryx (umm...Backy, same thing), also entered the mess though just simply waved everyone away. MacDougal screamed for Nik to get to her office. *sums up a couple hours of RPing* |
After two terms of silence, another note has been found by Colonel Mustard and Miss Scarlett. It was left in the hallways, and several tables in the Great Hall. Lua(mad-eye04) of Gryffindor and Fran(dracocutie89) of Slytherin have found two of them. Quote:
|
Kalaya (gumdrop480) of Hufflepuff and Jordana (BrightestWitch) of Ravenclaw have also found the note. In addition, I was wondering if the library was going to be open this term? |
Quote:
The library itself is open, the threads that need Madame Rowena's attention are closed until she herself is able to get on line. :) |

I just looked at the house points and Gryffindor is way in the black! Does anyone know how that happened? |

Summary of Charm's class events, straight from the murderous acromantula/smiling serpent/ etc etc's mouth: Charms class was about the photography charms that allow photos to move. Lee Andrez, Hufflepuff prefect, apparently decided this was too dull and decided to liven up the class by charming a piece of chalk to write: Andi Mao-Macdougal Zizhen and Andrei Vannacutt Forever (or something along those lines). Chaos, chaos, AMMZ found out with the use of prior incantatem and accio'ed his wand to her. More chaos. Lua, blaming Nik for cheating on her with Fran, attempted to blame a fur hex on Nik after shooting it at the professor (loss of hundred points). All in all, an eventful class. Hufflepuff hasn't had it's points cut off yet. |
To keep everyone updated on the points Gryffindor lost in Charms, apart from the ones already mentioned, I’ve decided to do a bit of writing. *cough-cough* Tia Ray [a.k.a SenoritaMaxie :P] lost Gryffindor – how many was it again? – oh yeah, ten points for sheer cheek. Her knocking on the Charms Professor's office door being resolutely ignored by the Professor, she proceeded to throw caution to the wands and pass on certain "cheeky" comments. Quote:

But the most exciting event in class was probably the fact that the Professor laughed. While turning a still photograph into a moving one, she actually laughed. It must have awfully Quote:

KK, back to school plot.. Samea the school poltergeist have visited every professor's office demanding them to attend a secret meeting which the headmistress will host later on that day, {the day samea's on O-o} |
This is probably a silly question and there may not be a significant answer, but how did Slytherin lose 40-some points in one day? We were in the lead in the House Cup competition the last time I checked (yesterday afternoon, I believe), and now we're in the negatives. Did one event happen to cause us to lose all those points, or were they the result of several incidents? |
Glinda (rupertsgirl2) lost 15 in the Hospital Waiting Room for fighting with another student. Quote:

Go to Tracking House Points. Update your fellow classmates about any point deduction or any extra points you earned. |
The locker rooms are now open and students can sign up for Quidditch tryouts. The other 3 houses have new team captains (the list has been updated). The staff are still in their "secret" meeting and are discussing what to do with the Book of Mysteria. It's the first Hogsmeade weekend and students are taking the opportunity to visit the village. |
The staff members are still engaged in a discussion / meeting in the staff room concerning the fate of the Book of Mysteria. Before the staff meeting could go very far, there was incident with a few students (Raeden Riddle and rupertsgirl2)and the dark mark down by the Lake, which Nurse Numel and Professor Mao-MacDougal took care of. The two students receive detention. Meanwhile, Samea your friendly neighborhood poltergeist, has set up a polling booth in the Third Floor Corridor, in order to allow the students to give their input on what to do with the Book of Mysteria. Ravenclaws Kay Harrison (demented_death_eater) and Julia Agoobwah (Grangerfn1) questioned Samea about the booth. Quote:
Samea’s response was rather cryptic: Quote:

Do not forget about her odd message about Professor Lainey, either. Quote:
|
The door burst open and someone who looked like the professor bounced into the room. It couldn't possibly have been Andi. For one thing, she didn't bounce like a kid high on cuteness. And for God's sake - she didn't smile - -- and she didn't hand out cookies -- --- but that was what she was doing anyway --- Andi shot the class a bright cheery smile. There was something twanging in the air all around her, a sort of sustained aura - and if you could see it, it would have been the brightest pink, and the cheeriest yellow. Even her clothes today were different - instead of the dark colors she normall wore, her dress today was a pale, soft powder blue. It was quite nice - but she had only worn it because she hadn't managed to find anything... more... cheerful. "Good morning, students!" she trilled. "Have a cookie?" __________________ Woah..what is up with Professor Mao?...Has someone put a powerful cheering charm on one of Hogwarts most loathed professor or is it something else..*shifty look* Most loathed? You're cruisin' for a bruisin' XD lmao...sorry..she isnt the friendliest of em |
Lainey has confessed to Headmistress Rae about her encounter with Lord Voledmortist this past summer. She's suggested they bargain with him, give him what he wants in exchange for no one being hurt. Rae doesn't seem so certain about this. Will be edited as more information reveals. |
And it seems Lainey has been caught up to no good in The Owlry. After storming out on Headmistress Rae she went and sent this: It had felt like it took Lainey ages to finally arrive at the owlery. The walk from the Headmistress's office to here had never seemed so long. But, Lainey supposed it was the task she was about to do that made the trip seem so long. She stopped off in an old classroom on the way to write the letter. Lainey opened it up and proof read it one more time... Quote: Dear T. D. I'm using your real initials. I figured it would be less suspicious if this were to fall in the wrong hands. Not many people know your real name, after all. I'm writing you to ask a favor. I must be crazy to expect you to answer me or that you'll ever even receive this, but here I am. Crazy ole Lainey up to her usual. I need to know about the Book. There is talk of destroying it and talk of moving it and talk of giving it over to others. Regardless of what happens, I'd like to know why the Book is so important to you. I might be able to get what you need from the Book - if you'll do something for me. I don't want you to think you trick me or pull a shade down over my eyes and get what you want for nothing. Consider yourself warned. Anjelica Lainey Lainey had debated and debated on asking the last part. She felt like she was betraying Rae with it. But, right before sending the owl... Lainey had stuck the extra piece of parchment inside the envelope. Quote: I know you know about the BoM. And I also know you know I came from it. If it is destroyed, what is my fate? Lainey watched the owl off, regretted doing it at all, and headed back to her office. and Lord Voldemortist has replied to her :O Originally Posted by The letter Dear Professor Lainey, The Book is reputed to contain powerful spells of various natures. As you are aware, among those spells are spells to resurrect the dead. If such a spell exists, I can only imagine what other treasures the Book contains. I wish to obtain the Book in order to peruse its pages. I'm sure you can already guess that I crave power and immersing myself in such a book would provide some of that. I am not certain I understand what sort of deal you are trying to make with me. My interest is in the Book in general, though I suppose I could settle for something a little less depending upon what payment you want in return. As to your question, I have my thoughts but would prefer to keep them to myself until such a time as I see fit to reveal them. Perhaps you would like to discuss things a bit further in person. T.D. Is Lainey going to go visit Lord V? We can only hope noooo! |
