| | The Tapestry
Once referred to as "The Mysterious Tapestry", this wall hanging first came to notice during Draconia's tenure as Headmistress. The passageway which existed behind the tapestry has long since been sealed but, the tapestry continues to be a site of great interest to those familiar with its story or appreciate such textile arts. It also makes a convenient meeting place as there is no other tapestry as grand as this in the castle. |

| I've tried posting this three times, UGH. And I wonder if a Prof is gonna come here? ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ Quote:

It was really unfortunate how this whole thing had played out, and part of him even wished that Bontecou and Lupa had never even arranged for that little demonstration. If they hadn't done it, none of this would have happened. People wouldn't even know Lupa was a werewolf and things would be calm and peaceful--by Hogwarts standards, at least.
"Exactly, as long as they handle it and keep it under control, they're completely harmless!" he exclaimed in agreement. "Lupa went a whole year before that incident without a single accident and no one even knew she was a werewolf. They're still their normal selves, they just have...a little problem they need to take care of each month."
Hmm, a girl with red hair? Jack wasn't exactly sure...all the people that kept popping into his head just had normal red hair.
"No, but there was some Ravvie who had purple hair," he said. "OH WAIT! I think she just dyed it...it might be red. I can't really remember," he said with a small frown. Curse that blasted memory of his!
Raiden winced, visibly. His eyes squeezed shut, his nose wrinkled up slightly and he let out a groan of annoyance. Jack had just mentioned the same person he had thought about.
"That's exactly who I was thinking of. And I think that's the person who stuck these up." Sigh. "I can't be sure because I didn't see her face or anything, but I did see really really red hair, and not like... a normal red that you'd see on everyone, you know?"
He didn't know of that many red-haired girls in the school, especially younger ones. Ugh. Why would she do this? Why were people being so mean lately, it was ridiculous! Idly he wondered if somehow the murders of two students now were connected to... this whole anti-werewolf thing. Could it be? Was someone getting really really serious about being anti-werewolf or something? It was a far-fetched idea, but... still. |

| curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog "Right," Jack said with a head nod. "Even if we're wrong and it WASN'T her, that still doesn't make the pool of suspects very large," he pointed out. He didn't think they were wrong though, he was very certain there was only ONE girl in the school with hair like that. "I can't believe the used they word FREAK," he said with a sigh, shaking his head as he looked at the poster again. "I wonder how many students are actually involved in this," he wondered aloud. This was the first he had heard of it, which could either be a good or a bad thing--if it was good, that meant that the word hadn't spread about this organization to a lot of people. If it was bad--well, that proved that SOMEONE somewhere knew Jack's opinion on werewolves, and had left him out of the planning for obvious reasons. Perhaps that was why this was all new to Raiden too? Hmmmmm.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ "I doubt there's even a dozen people in Hogwarts with red hair, and I doubt even more that many of them are female," Raiden said softly, folding the poster in his hands in half. He didn't want to look at the stupid thing anymore, it was just going to get him upset and unhappy and there had already been a murder! He didn't want to deal with stupid posters about how much people hated others as well. "Do you reckon we should hand these over to a Professor? I don't know how inclined they'll be to ask the girl about it, seeing as I didn't see her face."
He didn't know for sure that it had been her, so would telling a professor that he was fairly sure it was really fair? What if it had been a girl wearing a wig or someone who had done a spell to disguise themselves? He looked at Jack, biting his lower lip. Should they tell the professors they thought it was that girl? Or would it be better to kinda... try and find out more? If there was one, there was bound to be more. After all, the poster advertised it as wizardS. As in more than one.
"I really dislike that word a lot." His fingers played at the edge of the poster. "It... labelling people with that word could hurt them for a really long time." |

"I really dislike that word a lot." His fingers played at the edge of the poster. "It... labelling people with that word could hurt them for a really long time." Jack nodded. "Yeah, maybe handing this over to a professor would be a good idea except...which professor would we go to? Some of them probably agree with the poster, and going to Bontecou or Lupa might hurt their feelings," he said. He didn't want to offend either of them by showing them the poster with the word FREAK written across it. "Maybe if you explain that you THINK you know who it is, they'll question her...depending on serious they take it, that is..." his voice trailed off with a sigh. "Maybe for now...we can just keep it here until someone comes back," he said. Would Masterson be coming back? And when would it be ok for them to leave the area? It was starting to feel a little eerie to him as they continued to linger at the scene of that horrible crime. "I hate it too," Jack said with a sigh, shaking his head. It was NEVER cool to call someone freak--he knew that back in the day when he was a dorky little first year, he did NOT like it when people called him that. Not at ALL. |

Raiden stared at the folded up poster in his hands. Jack had raised a good point. Which professors would agree with the group? It was probable that there was at least one, let alone more... and Professor Lupa and Headmaster Bontecou would probably be really upset if they saw these, yes.
"Well, I'm sure they'll take it seriously if... they see these. I mean, calling your professors 'freaks' surely isn't something that's allowed, right?" He frowned. Who could they go to? If not Professor Lupa...
There was really only one professor that Raiden really trusted and knew would take him seriously.
"Maybe Professor Truebridge?" he said softly, looking toward the tapestry as if the man would appear there because his name had been spoken. "He would take it seriously, I'm sure. And I don't think he's really biased against werewolves. Actually I don't think he's much biased against anything."
He was a good guy, that professor. |

Though if Reese came and fell again he wouldn't feel responsible this time. It would be her fault for being blind.
Currently, he was reading a huge book that he had picked up in the library on Magical Creatures. It was hard to even hold the thing on his lap, it was so heavy.
He really needed Alex to help him memorize all this or his head was going to explode. |

He didn't know who it was, not really. He had been gone for months and had just returned, and anyway, it was a large school to begin with. "My, that is an enormous book," he remarked, unable to refrain from making a comment. |

He looked up as he heard a voice call out to him. Well, more like state the obvious. But seeing as he didn't know the kid he didn't want to be rude. If it was Reese he would have really been mean. Oh well. Looked like he couldn't have any fun with this, so he would just have to live with being polite. "Yes, it's an enormous book. It's for Care of Magical Creatures." |

It wasn't that the class was bad, but it wasn't terribly interesting. Not to him, anyway. He raised an eyebrow, his hands in his robes' pockets as he repressed a smirk, his face the look of utter repose... Sort of. There was a slightly amused look in his eye that he couldn't hide. "Intriguing," he replied, and then, "Is this what you do on your days off?"
"Damon Rimstone, by the way," he said, offering out a hand. |

"Damon Rimstone, by the way," he said, offering out a hand. Well, this guy seemed a bit aloof. No, there was a hint of amusement in his eyes. So maybe he was laid back like Torin was most of the time. He laughed at the comment about his choice in reading. "Hardly. But I don't want to fail the OWLs. Especially since my girlfriend wants to help me pass."
He took the boys hand when it was offered. "Torin Kane." |

He took the boys hand when it was offered. "Torin Kane." When Damon heard that it was Torin, he almost immediately withdrew his hand. However, that wouldn't be a wise move. Being purposely rude to Alex's boyfriend, for one, would surely make her feel even worse. He forced himself to smile. "Oh?" he finally said, probably shaking Torin's hand a little too long at this point. With that thought in mind, he quickly released his hand.
"I'm a friend of Alex's, actually," he said at last. "Glad to meet you." Hardly. |

Things had definitely gotten awkward within a matter of seconds. Not that he would mention any of this to someone that he had just met. Though the fake smile and painfully long handshake didn't help. He would be lying if he said that he wasn't relieved when the boy let go of his hand. "Oh really? That's cool. I'm glad to meet you too." Sorta.. |

He kept trying to think of things to say, casual, friendly small talk, but none of it could seem to form. The situation was practically devised for extreme awkwardness. Not to mention, he didn't even know how he felt about this guy. He certainly didn't seem like a fan-girl magnet, so maybe Alex was just paranoid. "Right...," he finally said, but it would probably seem really unkind to just walk away now. And it would probably raise some suspicions.
"I haven't done any studying for the OWLs yet," he finally said. "It would probably benefit me to pass those as well. Do you have any idea what career you're aiming for?" There. That was something. |

Okay, something was up here. "Would it be too forward of me to ask if there is something wrong here?" He had the feeling that this boy wasn't really wanting to be in his presence and it was starting to unnerve him a little. "You haven't studied yet?" Well, that was an interesting approach to things to say the least seeing as it was now June. "I want to open a bakery," he added as he glanced down at his book again. "You?" |

He shrugged, offering a friendly smile. "No, it was nothing. It's just, uh, that Alex expressed some concern about fan girls. I mean, she's not suspicious of you, but you don't really seem like it. I mean, studying over here." That was... bad, to say the least. He hadn't meant to say that, per se, but it was a little easier off the tongue than, 'I'm in love with your girlfriend.' Especially considering he was currently convincing himself that it wasn't true.
Then he brushed his hand through his hair, smirking as he averted eye contact. "Yeah, well, I was away for awhile and intended to study, but it never happened. I'll cram or something," he finally added, though he meant he'd find some way to cheat. He nodded. "I'm going to take over the world, actually," he joked, but what Torin wouldn't know was that he wasn't joking. He fully intended on taking over the world. "So, a bakery?" he inquired, trying to keep some sort of conversation, just so that he could manage to get out of here in a less awkward fashion than he entered. |

"Yeah, I'm a good baker. I love making things for people." |

"To know that you really care about her. I'd hate to see my friend upset is all." It shouldn't have come out like a warning, but there was an edge beneath his friendly tone. He couldn't help it.
Then he was all too ready to get away from Betty Homemaker over here, more because he was just so great for Alex. Great, terrific, dandy. He had a good heart and loved her, and Damon had half a mind to ask the Whomping Willow for a handshake over it. "Thanks," he replied with half a smile. "You're not a bad guy, you know," he added, irritated to say it because it was true. He didn't let that irritation show, though if he stood here much longer, his eye would surely start twitching. |

For one thing he wasn't going to be a jerk for her. And for another he wasn't swarmed with fangirls.
But since he seemed to be getting approval from this friend of hers he couldn't really hold anything against him in the long run. "Thanks. You're not so bad yourself." |

But since he seemed to be getting approval from this friend of hers he couldn't really hold anything against him in the long run. "Thanks. You're not so bad yourself." He grinned as he crossed his arms. "Good to know," he replied. Sure, he might not have liked Torin on principle since he was the one dating Alex, but that didn't mean he necessarily had to dislike him, right? He could try to not let his principles and prejudgments get in the way here. After all, he seemed like a cool guy.
"I'm not?" he replied, realizing it was probably bad to sound shocked. "Oh, well, I guess that's good to know too." He had to remind himself that such a thing was typically meant as a compliment and not an insult. He smirked as he looked up, having a tendency to do that whenever searching for something to say. "So how'd you two meet?"
He brought his eyes back down to meet the other's, his expression amiable even though he wasn't sure if he wanted to know. Why'd he ask? Why? |

"I'm not?" he replied, realizing it was probably bad to sound shocked. "Oh, well, I guess that's good to know too."

For once it seemed that he was sorta genuinely okay with talking with him. And that put him a bit more at ease. He was starting to see why Alex had been so uncomfortable at the party. The friend test could be brutal. "You're not bad, no." He wasn't sure why the boy seemed shocked to hear it. But that wasn't really his concern. "How did we meet? I'll never forget. I was standing in the corn maze and she was running. Almost crashed right into me. Then we started talking about.. everything." Their families, where they lived, what their parents did... |

Damon had to refrain from fidgeting, and he felt as though his eye might start twitching or a look of horror might appear on his face. What is wrong with me? he thought to himself, and managed to soften himself up enough to smile. And to be honest, it was more at the thought of Alex running square into Torin. "What a way to meet someone," he replied, almost chuckling to himself through his words.
When Damon had met her she had been upset about something. Then they had talked about a lot of the same things, but it had ended differently with them. They had started talking about taking over the world. What an ending. |
