| | The Student Garden Your wonderful Professor Bunbury has been extremely careful and tedious in preserving this garden started by Professor Caraccio. She hasn't moved a single plant around nor made any other changes, with the exception of the puffapods and flutterbies the class planted in Term 21 in the southwestern corner of the garden. Oh, and don't overlook that bright, shiny pink shed in that contains tools, buckets and watering cans for the students to use.
A warm pond with giant Victoria amazonica water lilies borders the western edge of the garden and newly painted pink benches have been renovated so hardworking students may take a rest after pulling weeds by the pond. Lining the student gardens are the cherry trees which were grafted in Term 15 and the Northern Planters are occupied by the student hybrids created at the end of Term 16. North-Eastern Planter- Excelsior's White Lily x Tiger Lily (unnamed): a lily which looks much like the tiger lily, though a light yellow color
- Rapunzel's Honking Daffodil x Narcicuss (The Bright Badger): a petite narcicuss that squeaks
Central North Planter- Jasmine's plumeria rubra acutifolia x catharanthus roseus (unnamed): a deep-blue colored Frangipani
- Sho's Silver Rose x Yellow Carnation (Sunrise Carnation): large-petaled carnations which look like a metallic yellow
- Ariana's Pink Rose x Blue Rose (unnamed): roses with red petals that fade to purple
North-Western Planter- Hermy's Sword Leaf Iris x Winter Love Lily (unnamed): slender spread petals, shimmering in purple, blue, and gold
- Ryan's Royal Iris x Easter Lily (Rowena's Knight): lily with frilled petals in blue and purple
- Bess's Dark Mauve Iris x Light Pink Lily (unnamed): dark pink lily with specks of deep violet adorning the center

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Neptune turned so that her bubbles would float Raiden's way and she wasn't point blank cold-shouldering him. She OCCASIONALLY looked his way. From this angle she could see the cherry blossoms he was on about.
And they WERE pretty.
His questions though? Annoying. All rhetorical and meant to clear him for what he'd DONE. It didn't work for Neptune. He'd have to earn it.
"You should use your kitty-claws to climb that three and shake the branches. Let the blossoms rain down on me!" She could TWIRL in them and it'd be WONDERFUL.
Then, MAYBE, Neptune would befriend Raiden again. Maybe. |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ Raiden looked at the young tree and almost flinched. Use his kitty claws to climb the tree, huh? Raiden looked at his very human hands for a moment before shrugging. This tree was nowhere near as tall as that one he had been stuck in, and he wouldn't even actually have to climb, as he could reach the lowest branch...
"It's nice when they fall naturally," he said quietly, one hand reaching up to grasp the branch just above himself. He gave it a gentle shake, watching as a few more petals than would usually fall came loose. "If you just sit and watch them come down... it's really pretty."
The box of candy was still in his other hand, along with the one heart he'd pulled out. Tucking it back into his pocket, he popped the heart into his mouth and chewed it. If she wasn't gonna eat it, well then. He would. He liked sugar.
Even in... chalky form. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year | Slytherin by heart What?! No no no! You're not supposed to eat them! She frowned and sat down with a little huff. She took a bag of candy from her pocket, muttering as she watched them. Darn you, Raiden! She popped a candy in her mouth, hoping that Neptune would eat one soon. At least it took a little while to work...

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Youuuuuuu're pouting!" Neptune sang at Raiden.
Because you know what? HE WAS. HE had been snuggling with Psycho!Lina, NOT Neptune. Though now she was totally thinking about going to snuggle with Kellen Stern. Hmph.
Regardless, Neptune did step up underneath the tree and twirl in the falling cherry blossoms. |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ Huh what hey? Raiden was not pouting! Swallowing the heart (and wishing for water), he gave the branch another gentle shake.
"Are you having fun?" he asked as she twirled around in the falling cherry blossoms. It was actually really cute and if there had been a pout on his face, it was definitely replaced by the small smile that found itself there. He wanted to ask if she was going to be all meh at him for the rest of the day, but... well that would probably make her be all meh at him even if she'd decided to not be. "They're stuck in your hair..." |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "Well get them OUT!" Neptune continued to twirl, pushing up to her toes like a ballerina.
GIGGLE. |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ "You'd have to stop twirling," he pointed out, letting go of the branch and taking a step toward her. "I don't wanna pull your hair or anything."
She'd... probably yell at him. And then she'd definitely be grumpy for the rest of the day. And Raiden did not want her to be grumpy. Because it just made everything totally not fun, and today was supposed to be a nice day. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Neptune HUFFED at Raiden. Gah. Was nothing just simple with him? NO? You have to do THIS and you have to DO THAT. Neptune just wanted to DO what she wanted to DO and not have be TOLD all the time to do THIS and THAT.
Merlin.
But she did stop twirling and waited for him to fish flowers from her hair.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ Okay. Now he pouted. Raiden distinctly felt the corners of his lips take a downward turn as Neptune huffed at him. HUFFED. AT. HIM. Why was she huffing at him, he hadn't done anything wroooooong.
"Why are you mad at me now?" he asked sadly as he picked blossom petals out of her hair. Because... really. Did she want him to pull her hair or something? |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year | Slytherin by heart Lina sat back with a huff, eating another piece of candy. Come on, Raiden! Give her a candy! She was completely oblivious to the fact that her hair seemed to be shifting. It was much more important that Neptune ate some of that candy!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | I dunno. Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Sounding very, very much like her mother, Neptune replied, "You're just always asking. Less asking, more DOING."
Which was true of Raiden, except for that one time.... or actually, every time, he'd kissed her.
EEEEEEEEEEP!
She stood very still, eyes closed, with her face upturned and waiting. |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ If he weren't so used to Neptune and so difficult to frustrate, Raiden probably would've gotten annoyed at her answer. Of course he asked before doing things. That was how it was meant to be. If you didn't ask, then you couldn't really be sure at all if the outcome would be okay.
Case in point...
"Last time I just did something," he started, slipping a hand into his pocket and silently withdrawing one of the hearts from the box. "You got upset and ran away."
He put the little heart on her lips and held it there with one finger. The way she was standing, like that... well, he didn't want another repeat of that incident. Candy hearts for Neptune's lips in place of his. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Neptune DID remember and she giggled slyly in response. Then she BIT the candy and let her tongue pull it into her mouth. "You surprised me. And.. well... I just didn't know what to do," Neptune told him, having a rare serious and sincere moment complete with the BIG EYES. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year | Slytherin by heart Lina went all wide-eyed, mocking Neptune from her hiding point, mouthing, 'Oh, I just didn't know what to do!' With that she pretended to pass out with a bit of a flourish. THUD! ... What was that? She looked over to see a plant got knocked over. Whoops. She picked it back up and peeked over, seeing if they had noticed. Hopefully not. Hey, was Raiden shorter? And his ears were... smaller... She grinned. Yes! It was working! Now it was just a matter of waiting for Neptune to start shrinking.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ ...hmmm?
Raiden suddenly felt... slightly off. The angle that he was used to when looking at Neptune was wrong. Was she wearing those heeled shoes or something? Eh. That had to be it. He just hadn't noticed it before.
He also didn't notice (not that he could) that his eyes were slowly getting darker, the green fading to the natural dark brown colour it was meant to be.
"Well that's why I ask before I do things," he said, withdrawing his hand when she had eaten what it was holding there. "Because if you don't like it or something, then you might run away again."
His hearing was starting to feel all muffled. And his clothes were starting to feel all baggy and looser than normal, too. What... the heck? Raiden frowned slightly and reached to touch one of his ears. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen "And you definitely don't want me to run away again," Neptune sort of asked, sort of assumed. She stuck her tongue out at him with the candy heart still on it, then she CRUNCHED it into a million little pieces. SWALLOW.
"Ew. Raiden. I am disgusted with your taste in candy. It's almost insulting, all things considered." HELLO. BOTT GIRL. She was watching Raiden closely. Hmmm.... He was de-catting! |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ "Of course I don't." Why did his ear feel smaller? Slightly worried, Raiden's other hand moved to touch the other. It was definitely shrunken too, and it... even felt like it was shrinking under his hand. Eyes wide, and now gone completely the colour they were before this kneazle fiasco, Raiden stared at Neptune. She was definitely getting taller. "N-Neptune?"
What was going on here?! |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Neptune had NO IDEA why he was saying her name that way. She was far too startled that he was SHRINKING before her eyes to answer him. "Stop it! Whatever you're doing, stop it. You're scaring me!" That said, she took a BIG step back from him. |

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ "I'm not doing anything!" The voice that spoke the words was signifcantly different from what had been expected. Raiden would have been startled by it had he not realised that his pants were now so baggy they were in danger of falling off and set to worrying about that instead. His shirt seemed ridiculously oversized; one thin little shoulder was soon peeking from the neck of it, as it had slipped sideways on his too-small body as he scrambled after his pants. Even his hair had grown longer as this all happened, a slight fringe intruding onto his forehead and into his eyes as the boy gasped to breathe through his horror.
Neptune was taller than him now. By quite a bit.
"What is going on make it stop make it stop make it stop Merlin this is not funny-" |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year | Slytherin by heart "Sorry Raiden," Lina whispered with a sad smile. "But as soon as Neptune is younger than you again, I'll make sure you're alright." She watched anxiously, knowing that it wouldn't be much longer.

Georgie made her way into the student garden, smiling at all the plants. Prof. Bunbury and those before her had done a fabulous job with this area of the school. She was surprised she hadn't come to see it before. Stupid stupid girl.
But there was a specific reason she was here now. Barry. They decided to not wait for a Hogsmeade weekend and just hang out here in the garden's instead. It was alone, and it didn't seem such a hot spot, so there was no way of them being interrupted. It was perfect! She smiled to herself and kind of meandered around near the front, looking at the flowers as she waited.

She smiled to herself and kind of meandered around near the front, looking at the flowers as she waited. Barry was happy today. Very happy. Barry normally was always quite neutral and only got slightly happy. But today it was different. He was going on a DATE. He approached the gardens and spotted Georgie. He stopped for a second, sure that she couldn`t see him and calmed himself down. He didn`t want to look weird. That would not help anyone.
Then having straightened his face a little, a smile just escaping he walked up to Georgie and gave her a hug. He was into hugs now. Livvy and Cela had got him into the habit. And he was sure that Georgie didn`t mind that much. "Hey" he greeted. " So how are you?" he asked. He didn`t want his girlfriend to feel upset. Love was good. Barry`d only been through two break-ups in his life but he hadn`t really gone out with either of the girls.

No! Well, with any luck they wouldn't notice what was going on. As is, she was probably going to get in trouble for this little stunt.

Only Barry, Kel and Rex could hug her! Cause they were the only males she really knew around her. She opened her mouth before calming down when hearing it was Barry. She gave him a hug back and smiled, "Hey. I'm alright, even better now. Yourself?" she asked, stepping back slightly so she could see his face.
Aww, he looked happy! That was good. Because she was happy as well. Like, cloud nine happy.

Aww, he looked happy! That was good. Because she was happy as well. Like, cloud nine happy. Barry was suprised. Why was she shocked to see him? They had arranged to meet here. But she was happy! So he decided to forget about her being shocked. He didn`t want to ruin a perfect moment like this. "I`m good. Glad to be with you" Barry said. Ehh. That reminded him of the sunshine potion. He really didn`t want to be reminded of that. "So, you want to walk?" he asked looking around at the garden. This had been where he`d first realised he`d liked Cela. Perfect place.
Out of the corner of his eye he noticed a girl looking at something out of his view. She was hiding. He raised an eyebrow at her. Really weird. He looked back at Georgie with a confused look on his face.
