Standing before are two very strong and impassible metal doors that form an obstacle that separates you from the outer world. Meant to keep the unruly students (no offense) in and any unwanted strangers out, the gates always remain locked, except for in the cases of Hogsmeade weekends. | |

Quidditch Yes, that always made the both of them smile. "I actually scored at the last try-out." she smiled. At least she scored once, if that was enough for her to make the team or not, she wasn't sure. At least she tried out. Carter just ignored the statement about times changing deciding to stick with the quidditch topic.
"You did? That's awesome." he said excitedly. "I wish I could have seen it."

Mina smiled. Yes, stick to Quidditch. No need for awkwardness. She was sure her one score wouldn't be enough to secure her a position, but she could at least owl her family about it. "Any word on your house team?" she asked. | |

"No, not yet. The last tryout is this weekend... so, we'll see what happens. Keep your fingers crossed... or whatever wizards do..."

"Really, well maybe I'll have to stop by and watch. You know show my support for you and Ella."
Which so reminded her, she had have some pom-poms to make still. | |

She could dress her bear up and maybe even make tiny pom-poms for it as well.
She could probably start on that after her homework. | |

He wondered if Mina was planning on carrying that little bear with her everywhere. That would be cute. Wait, Carter, what are you thinking about? Snap out of it man.
"So how have you enjoyed classes so far?"

"So how have you enjoyed classes so far?" Mina laughed. "I'm willing to take the blame then." she smiled. She was only planning on watching for a little bit to see if she could think of anything new cheers. Which really wasn't her thing, but for some reason it stuck her as fun.
"Of course, you know how I like lessons and homework." she beamed. She was too much of the over-achiever still. "History of Magic was interesting. I really didn't know how I would like it with Professor Truebridge gone and all but maybe it might still remain near the top of my favourite lessons list." | |

Carter smiled at her and then entertained himself by tearing apart a blade of nearby grass. "I think transfiguration is my new favorite class. I'm not too bad at it either." he said looking over to their little gardens a few feet away. He wondered how long they'd be there. "Charms was fun too. I need to practice though. I don't know what I'm going to duplicate."

Constantine put his stuff down onto the ground. He had already sanctioned off a patch of grass and tilled the area so that it was prime for a small garden. He figured the grounds needed some colour.
Trowels. Check.
Plants. Check.
Students to do the majority of the work? He looked around. Eh, work in progress.
He then turned to survey the area.

Neptune was out conjuring butterflies and then skipping through them. She had a little butterfly following. And it was all just SO VERY FUNNY, as could be heard by her incessant GIGGLES.
She happened across the Groundskeeper - that let her just add - looked nothing like any Groundskeeper she'd ever seen.
Neptune Bott approved.
"Hellooooooooo Sir. How do you do?" Neptune giggled, curtsied, and giggled some more. | |

His head turned to the sound of consistent giggles. Dear heavens, what child could be that happy that happy? WHILE at school? Merlin, the times must have changed.
He turned and found the source. "Oh, hello, Miss. I do well. How do you do, Miss...?"

Sigh.
And just like that, his approving rating went waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down. With a very, very serious no nonsense look, Neptune planted her hands on her hips. "Bott. Sir. Bott. Neptune Bott." DERRRRRR!
She took a step towards him and his small mess that he'd created on the grounds. Hmm. "What are you doing?" | |

He raised an eyebrow. The way the child said her name, it almost made him feel like he should have KNOWN her name. You know. A child he'd never met and he didn't know her name? How absurd (apparently).
"I'm going to put a garden together. Because...you know...the plants..the trowels...and the soil."

"OooooooOOO!!!!!!" Neptune squealed a little. OOOO INDEED! "A garden! I LOVE gardens! I know how to conjure flowers! And, I have a sense of style. Men typically don't, no offense, since you ARE one and all. But it's true. SO. I'll help you!" It was ALL decided and stuff! YAY! Neptune wiggled her fingers at Mr. Groundskeeper like she might just walk up and TICKLE him for having such a good idea. A GARDEN! | |

Neo scrunched his nose up a little as the little NEPTUNE BOTT squealed. Like really, was that necessary? WAIT. No sense of style. "I have style," he whined a little, and then looked down at himself. Okay, so maybe dirty blue jeans and a white t-shirt wasn't exactly appealing...but it did the job.
"You'll help? ...eh, Okay. Do you know how to...plant real plants? Not just conjure them?"

Neptune gave this man a look. "Sir. Don't be silly!" GIGGLE. "If you teach me, then surely I'll know. My butler used to plant flowers in our atrium and I would watch. It doesn't seem that complicated."
She circled around him once, eyeing him up and down. As for his style, she giggled, "Hmmmm SURE you do, Sir. Absolutely. Style just running out of your ears." Whatever helps you sleep at night. | |

Well, that made him feel better. He thought. "Ehh...thank you?" He shook his head a little and then took a seat on the ground. "Well then, pull up a patch of grass and I'll show you."

Neptune's smile faded a little. Pull up a patch of grass?
With her hands?
"Perhaps a little demonstration first?" And then he'd just do it and Neptune would watch and be SO IMPRESSED with his skills. | |

Neo grinned. "Pull up a patch of a grass is an expression. I meant: sit down. On the grass?" He patted a spot. "Do you still need me to show you?"

"Ohhhhhh," Neptune's big blue eyes widened. "Well that just makes no sense at all. Pulling up grass to sit on." Perhaps the Groundskeeper was a bit cuckoo?
She didn't NEED a demonstration on how to sit on the grass, but she'd take one. "Oh please, do show me how it's done! And remember, I'm in a skirt, so YOU have to pretend you're in one too to make sure I do it lady-like and proper." MMHMMMM!
GIGGLES! | |

Simone walked out to the front gates. She tossed her bag on the top of a pillar, and climbed up it. Once she got to the top, she sat her self down. It was large enough to be a table. 'Good, I'll have enough room to work.' She thought to herself. She then pulled out her wand, her favorite pair of jimmy choo's, and her notes from charm's.
She was to duplicate an object using the Geminio charm. She read over her notes...
'Wand movement is a single tap on the object, coinciding with the incantation.'
That shouldn't be too hard. She was supposed to be working on her non-verbal spells this year. But she decided that since this was a new charm she would work on it as a verbal first. Though she would try to get it down as a non-verbal.
She concentrated very hard, closing her eyes, and picturing the shoe's in her mind. When she was ready, she took a deep breath, tapped on the shoes once and said, "Geminio!" She waited for something to happen...then a heel appeared. She sighed, and shook her head. This was going to take a lot of practice, and practice she did. She did the charm over and over and each time a little more of the shoes came.
Finally, she tapped the shoes and shouted "GEMINIO!" Right infront of her, appeared a beautiful duplicate of her favorite shoes. She smiled victoriusly. "Well. I guess its now or never." She sighed. She was going to attempt to do the charm non-verbally.
It took a few tries to finally get it down. On her last attempt however, she tapped the shoes, and yelled a mental 'Geminio!' The shoes appeared again, beautifully in front of her.
Grinning, she quickly got rid of the duplicates, with a flick of her wand, and packed up her bag. She jumped down from the pillar, almost like a cat; Which reminded her she was supposed to get animagi lessons from her aunt this year. She shook the thought off, and slowly walked back up to the castle, grinning happily.

Was there a dog behind her or something? Neptune actually turned around, ALL the way around in a full circle to see.
...
Her eyes zoomed back to the Groundskeeper man, while cool points BOTTOMED OUT. No one told a BOTT to SIT on COMMAND! Particularly not when Neptune had just offered to HELP!
She simply stood there, giving him the opportunity to apologize and re-word his request. And give that demonstration! | |

She kind of wish she still had her muggle camera from last term to get a picture of the gardens. "You are actually really good at it." she said with a nod. She had been struggling with it for most of the week and had finally gotten it. " I liked charms a lot, I just didn't like the pink unicorn. I'd rather have a duplicate bear any day." she laughed. She wasn't a huge fan of the unicorn and the moment she left that lesson, she sent her duplicate unicorn away to her younger sisters. They could fight over it. "I need to practice too, but I did manage to get it right eariler." she smiled as she thought about it. She just needed to learn how to change the colour of something and she would be set. | |
