"Thanks" she said as she stood up to go back to the room. "Let's go get this over with then maybe we can go to the headmasters office and see if he knows anything else yet." After all that was found today she really wanted to know what was going on.

Rex even felt bad about Marie. Of course, it was kind of funny what happened to her. Tragic, too at the same time.

Emalyn exited out of room one and went back into the waiting room to see if Rex and Kay were still there. Her expression was lost in thought, going over the answers she had gotten and trying to find something, some way...but to no avail. Maybe it was time to let nature take it's course. She looked up and smiled at the sight of Rex and Kay and waved, coming over to them. "Hey guys. She fixed my nose!" she pointed to her nose, her eyes crossing for a moment. "But it hurt like heck when she did it." That it did. "Thanks for waiting, though."

" Great, she fixed your nose" Rex told Emalyn. "So do not be so nosy next time" Rex teased Emalyn. " Yes it probably did hurt and when HogsMeade opens again, we will take you out to Madame Puddifoots, my treat " Rex told Emalyn. Right Kay?" Rex asked her.

Ema nodded enthusiastically, poking her nose. "I'll try not to be, but noses have no choice but to be nosy sometimes." she smirked, letting her arms fall to the side. Hmm...Hogsmeade, she hadn't been there in a while! "Oh okay. I've never been there, so that'll be cool."

Puddifoot. Teehee! I gots puddy on mah foot!

Immature, Ema...

Kay looked up and saw that Ema was back. She jumped up and hugged her. "I'm so glad your ok. Does it hurt much now?" She asked pulling away from Ema. Trying to get ahold on myself. "Sorry, I was worried. I do alot of that I'm told." She said giggling.

" Oh. getting me back" Rex teased Emalyn about the nose joke." Ok, we have a deal, Madame PuddiFoots" Rex said to Emalyn.


" Yes you do" Rex told Kay about her worrying. " You ready to go to Madame PuddiFoots?" Rex asked Kay.

Ema beamed and hugged Kay back. "Not really, just throbbing a tiny bit, but that will go away." she assured herself, patting Kay on the shoulder when she said she was worried. "Oh it's fine. I was worried too, believe me. At least it was just a nose, right?" Much rather a nose than...a leg or a back or a neck or...yeah. Something way worse.

Ema nodded, grinning. "I try." she commented, when Rex teased her. "Okay," she agreed, stuffing her hands in her pockets and rocking back and forth a little.

Alexa was escorted back into the waiting room. She was still barefoot but at least they were the right size now... her face was all but healed except for her eye and the big gash beneath it. She pulled Mr. Kapoor's blanket tighter around herself and silently had a seat waiting on someone to come help her to the common room.

OOC: From Potions class.


Sarah ran as fast as her legs would take her.She wanted to get to the Hospital Wing before the potion could do anymore damage to her attitude and temper.She was already feeling like she could punch the next person who spoke to her, and for a prefect that wasn't good.And neither was the fact there were several people in the waiting area.

Oh no.

"What has a person got to do to get some service around here?" she shouted at the top of her lungs. "Oh God, I'm sorry...." Horrified with herself, Sarah sat down on the nearest seat and stuffed her fist into her mouth.Please shut up.Please shut up.

Hopefully Healer Ashford wouldn't hold it against her.

Or give her detention.

Grooooaaaaannnnnn.

" You were lucky, you just had a broken nose" Rex told Emalyn. " I had amnesia when I had been here earlier" Rex said to Emalyn " Let's go now, but why do you like your hands in your pockets?" Rex asked Emslyn.

Lorcan poked his head around the door of the waiting room. He was hoping that he could find out about Lexi, if she was alright. He slipped into the room and looked around for somewhere to sit and wait.

Then he saw her. She still had the big gash under her eye,and she was wrapped up in a blanket. He walked over and sat down next to her. "Hi," He said quietly, "Have you been in yet?". He reached out tentatively and stroked the back of her hand gently. He wanted to hug her but he didn't dare.

Seeing as she'd finally gotten the students back in the healing area all healed and ready to return to their normal lives, Gabriella made her way back into the waiting room. No sooner had she entered, though, she heard a Hufflepuff girl---a prefect, nonetheless---yelling about getting some service.

She frowned and made her way over to the girl, ready to dock points and issue a week's worth of detention for the rude behavior she was exhibiting. Gabriella hadn't led a detention yet, but there was a first time for everything, wasn't there?

"Miss---..." Gabriella stopped short when the girl began apologizing for her outburst. It was only then that the healer figured out she'd been the victim of yet another magical malady. She stood still and quiet as she determined what had happened---a potion, she knew.

She held up one finger, indicating to the girl she'd be back in a moment, then disappeared through a set of doors. She returned a few moments later with a phial of potion. "Potions class, hmm? Or the lab, maybe? Either way, drink up, please," she said.

Sarah was rocking back and forth in her seat, almost ready to explode, her fist still shoved in her mouth trying to prevent another outburst.How could she have let this happen? How could she have been stupid enough to stay still when she heard the explosion? Why didn't she run straight away like everyone else? Stupid, stupid, stupid...she kept banging herself on the forehead with her free hand, not wanting to remove the other one just in case.And then the Healer came....

Ohhh she was going to get it, she knew it! But wait....her mumbled apology must have triggered a realisation in the Healer's brain, because she stopped talking and went off through the double doors.Sarah's eye's went wide with disbelief, then her brow furrowed with increasing anger as she watched her help disappear from view.THIS IS RIDICULOUS! AND WHAT IS WITH THE FINGER POINTING BUSINESS?! She screamed it all in her head, no way was she going to do it out loud again.But her teeth were now making some lovely marks in the back of her hand.And it was starting to hurt.

And then the Healer was back.With a phial of something.Something that would help.Grabbing it roughly, Sarah took her hand out of her mouth and quickly downed the whole thing in one.She didn't care if it was meant to be done slowly or not.Flexing her fingers, trying to get the feeling back in her hand, she took some deep breaths and looked up apologetically at Healer Ashford. "Thank you, that feels much better," she nodded emphatically. "I'm sorry about before, ma'am, I'd never usually talk to anyone like that.A student had an accident while brewing Aggrotenia potion, their cauldron exploded and some of the fumes seeped into me...." Sarah looked down into her lap, full of embarrassment and feeling like she could cry. "Do you know how long the green tinge will last? Not that I'm fussed, I can put up with it..." she played around with the sleeve of her robes, rubbing an area of her arm to see if the green-ness would come off.Nope.It didn't.Greeeaaaatttttt.

Ema nodded. "Yeah...luckily I haven't gotten majorly injured at Hogwarts yet." some of the stuff that could happen to you is quite gruesome. "Amnesia, really? That must have stunk." Yikes...amnesia. "Oh, I don't know," Ema pulled her hands out of her pockets and held them on her hips instead. "I never know what to do with them, I guess." she shrugged. "Okay, where to?"

Alexa sniffled a little and looked up at Lorcan with big sad eyes and said, "Yes. She did all that she could. My face is going to have to heal on it's own. Can you help me back to my common room?" She said everything a bit jumbled together due to the drowsiness and well... she was still overwhlemed by the fact that she had turned up in the castle injured and had no clue why or how it had happened.

Lorcan looked at Lexi, wondering what on earth could have caused an injury that the Healer couldn't fix... He wondered if it was because of dark magic.

"Of course I will help you back to your common room." He said quietly. He looked down at her bare feet. "You must be freezing." He took off his boot and socks and then crouched in front of her and put them on her feet. "They're clean, don't worry." He said with a lopsided grin.

Holding out his hand to help her up he said, "Shall we go?"

Alexa didn't argue as Lorcan placed his socks and boots on her feet, she was too tired and too darn cold. She pulled Kapoor's blanket tighter around herself and took Lorcan's hand in one of her own so he could help her up.

After a lot of wincing and slow going she was up and leaning heavily on Lorcan for support. "I need to find Mr. Kapoor... He may want his blanket back... I just hope the house elves can get it clean for him," she babbled as they headed for the door.

Juggling the door and Lexi wasn't easy, but some how Lorcan managed it. He was concerned by how much Lexi seemed to need to lean on him. He wrapped his one arm around her waist as he held open the door with his other hand.

When she started to ramble about Mr Kapoor's blanket, he tried to soothe her. "I'll take it to the house elves in the kitchen and then I'll find Mr Kapoor. The only thing that you should be thinking about is going to bed." Lorcan regretted the fact that they were in separate houses for the first time because he couldn't see her to her dormitory.

"You need rest I reckon, is that what the healer said?"He asked, wondering how he could make sure that she followed instructions for once.

" I know what you could do with your hands, you could put them around a boyfreind's neck or at least one in hand in his hand" Rex laughed teasing Emalyn. "Amnesia had been rough but I am really good now" Rex said to Emalyn. " You have been really lucky not to get too hurt" Rex gave a friendly smile at Emalyn. " Madame Puddiefoots, everyone" Rex called out quietly to Emalyn and Kay.

ooc: The dummy who left her stirrer in her cauldron and caused the calamity

Loud stomps announced the arrival of the very angry first year. Although Ivory was of small stature at about 4'4" she made sure every time her foot hit the dungeon floor there was as much force as possible in each one. How else was she to channel her anger? Even while under the influence of a hatred potion, it was highly doubtful that she'd ever hurt anyone...unless maybe she stepped on a few toes. Never the less, verbal abuse was another issue altogether.

Fortunately she wasn't insulting anyone in the near vicinity, in fact odds were the people she was ranting at weren't even there but nevertheless...

"...stupid creators of the faulty unreliable stirrer! Should have been more resilient I say! Why make a stirrer that will dissolve in not even lukewarm temperatures. A fire wasn't even burning!..."

And on she continued mumbling and cursing at the cheaters that were the people who mass produced them, she made her way into the waiting room and began pacing, while she shook her fists at the heavens.

"...May you never get more than one sheet of toilet paper at a time, you cheating oafs! You are ALL depriving villages of their idiots!"


Mumble. Rant. Grumble.

Ema laughed, purposely sticking her hands in her pockets again. "Well I haven't got one of those now, do I?" she stuck her tongue out at Rex's teasing-ness. Then she recollected herself when he spoke about amnesia again. It was not nice to be sticking one's tongue out at the mention of amnesia...heehee. "Yeah, I imagine it would have been. Do you still forget things sometimes?" she asked, tilting her head at Rex. Did he forget that he had to eat something disgusting if Gryffindor lost and Hufflepuff won? HMMMM...that he couldn't POSSIBLY forget. She wouldn't let him. Ema smiled back, now crossing her arms. Blasted hands! "Oh, okay." she nodded.

" Oh yeah, did we not have a bet for the HufflePuff-Gryffindor Quidditch match?" Rex asked Emalyn. " Of course, you know I am rooting for HufflePuff and that is not because of the bet but because of hard feelings" Rex said to Emalyn. " Well, we will have to get you a boyfreind, he might stop that tongue problem of yours" Rex laughed, teasing Emalyn again." I hardly forget anything" rex explained to Emalyn.

Kay listened to them talking as she looked around the room. So many people hurt and some were even missing. Maybe going to Hogsmeade wasn;t a good idea. "Guys maybe we should get out of here before the Healer gets mad." She said smiling at Ema and pulling on Rex's hand. "We can talk about finding boyfriends some where else." She giggled.

ooc: can we get to hogsmeade??

Lina trudged into the hospital wing for the second time... once again due to one of her potions. She really had to not make a habit of this. What if the nurse started asking questions? Maybe she should leave... But she held the door open for the others, hiding her nervousness. Frakin' Neptune and her whining and crying and acting like a baby. She probably could have calmed Raiden if Neptune hadn't overreacted. One of her ears twitched and her annoyance grew. Oh yeah. That's right. And she managed to sneak herself one of her own potions by eating a bag of candy that she spiked herself.
