"No you haven't overwhelmed me with all the talk...I've been reading up on it in the library but reading up and actually playing and thinking yo uknow what to do, or what you know, are two different worlds...Wow Since 3 , so you must be excellant at all the parts, if you ever needed to play them?Wanna walk and talk?"He asked her, before actually moving.

Rubiey smiled. "Sure." She replied, gesturing for him to lead the way. "Well, on and off since I was 3, my dad used to be Quidditch correspondent for the Daily Prophet, so I went to all the games with him. Its been harder since I was about 5; he died, you see, so I didn't have anyone to practice with; my mums a muggle. She sent me to a boarding school when I was 7, but I'd sneak out at night and practice flying in the orchard." She grinned; she was proud she had never been caught.

These statues never really lost their unusuallness.

No matter how many times Trixie had seen them in her time at Hogwarts, they were still unusual and incredibly random. But she passed them a lot, when walking around the classrooms and heading towards classes from the Common Room. It was often that the Slytherin would have to walk from the dungeons to the 7th floor.

Today just happened to be one of those days when she had to walk up to the top levels of the school. Luckily she had set off early so she had plenty of time to waste. Plus it was incredibly cold outside considering it was in fact winter time now. The Blonde decided to stop once she had reached the statues to take a well earned break. Climbing took a lot out of you. Why couldn't they just ride brooms through the school?

Emma walked slowly down the hallway, her eyes were a tad red from crying. She needed to think after she had run away from the Lake. How could he say that? Why did he say that? Why would he play with her feelings? She wiped her eye and looked at the statue for a few minutes, before noticing someone was next to her.

She turned around and saw Trixie. She tried to grin a one hundred percent smile but she was so confused. "Trixie!" she exclaimed happily. "How are you?"

Sorry. I've been busy. :(
 

Jimbo frowned as he looked at the boy's fake mustache. "It looks really good actually. Too good..." He stared at the boy's mustache for a while, before holding out the marker to Preston. "Make mine cooler like yours."

Huwhattt? How could he not know anyone his age? The place was always crawling with firsties. "How is that even possible? There are soooo many kids your age that it's sickening." Seriously. All the firsties he had seen or met were...icky. Except for Preston, it seems. He seemed alright.

He took a bit of candy for himself and looked back up at the statue. The candy that was stuck on there seemed to be less stuck. He reached out with his hand and took it off easily. Smiling, he ate that too. No candy should ever go to waste. That goes for cupcakes too.

It's alright. -huggles- Kind of a crappy post.
 

Preston took the marker from him carefully. Not sure if Jim was serious about this or not..."H-h-how d-d-do I d-d-do th-that?" He asked, he didn't want to make it look awful and make Jim mad at him...

Preston bit his lip, why couldn't Jim just make Preston's worse...problem solved. Preston didn't mind if his wasn't as awesome as Jim's. He just thought it was cool to have a mustache drawn on his face.

He turned back to the statue and eyed the candy. Now all Preston wanted was candy...and more candy. Though the mustaches were cool he just want to eat some candy. He hadn't had any since the train. And that was far too long ago.

Ella stood with a lollypop in her mouth, gaping at the statue of those famous ginger twins who owned that joke shop. Hm, this was an interesting part of the castle, and it was kewl.
After a moment or two of glancing around like a fool, Ella sat down on the ground and stretched her feet out, still with the strawberry lollypop in her mouth.

Nommyyyy!

Emilyy and Lissyy <33
 

Aiden had passed by the statues of Fred and George Weasley so many times that he barely even took note of them anymore. Poor fellows. And they were Gryffs, too. He walked on by, like usual, casting a lazy glance their way, only to look back ahead of him without a second thought.

Actually... scratch that second thought part.

He stopped in his tracks when it registered in his mind that the girl studying the statues was in fact, Ella. After hesitating for a split second, Aiden walked over to her. They were 'best friends' now, yeah? No awkwardness.. "Swapped lollipops for Chocolate Frogs now?"

As someone walked past her, Ella stood very still. She wasn't entirely sure whether students were allowed to randomly eat lollipops in the middle of the castle, and it may have been a teacher... Phew, they seemed to have disappeared. Nom nom nom.

....! Or not.
Hearing that same person speak, the lollipop fell out of her mouth and onto the ground, but she could really kick herself now. 'Cause it was only Aiden, and no teacher. She rummaged into her pocket to find another lollipop.
"Pffffft, don't be silly. I just need a change in sweety goodness. Chocolate's bad for you, y'know." That's riiiight. Not that lollipops were much healthier...

Taylor sat down on a bench near one of the statues. She pulled down her sunglasses- even though it wasn't really that sunny. She pulled out her lipgloss and applied another layer- which she always did when she was stressed. Ummm.

Fee was walking past the statues on her way.
Happily dancing through the floors she giggled.
But then she noticed Taylor sitting on a bench.
"Uhm... hi", she said feeling slightly awkward.

"Hey." Taylor replied with a smile to Fee, awkwardly. She shuffles on the seat and takes off her sunglasses- she shoves them in her bag. She barely had any make up on today- she just couldn't be bothered- and that is not like Tay! She sits awkwardly, wondering if Fee would sit down or not.

"Mind if i sit down",Fee asked.
As Taylor took of her sunglasses Fee noticed she wasnt wearing much make-up.
Wow,this was sooo un-taylor-like.

"Yeah, sure." Taylor replies, moving her bag. She folded her arms and looked at the statues around her. They had a few statues in the gardens at home too. But not as garish as these ones. She looked around and smiled at Fee. "Umm... do you trust me?" she asked her, she decided to ask her straight- she needed to know, i mean trust works both ways.

Fee smiled a little at her.She really didnt want to have fights with anyone. But she already thought of her as a non-perfect person sometimes. No need to be telled that by other people,too.

"Uhmm.. i dunno anymore", she whispered,"why are you asking?"

Taylor nodded slightly. "Umm... i just... wanted to know." she replied, forcing a smiled. Taylor was so tempted to slip into mean Tay right now- but she just couldn't, she wouldn't. It's just the way she'd been brought up, i suppose. She looked down at her hands in her lap and pulled her bag up to her lap- right, she was putting some make up on- she got out her electro pink blush and applied some, whilst ruffling up her hair. "You do know, i haven't lied to you about anything right? I mean, that thing is- well, it's mine, but i wouldn't use it. My, my father gave it to me, as a kind of protection- he prefers it to normal charms, says it works better... i know it sounds weird, but... it's just the way things work." Taylor know she'd been indoctrined by her parents- about most things, muggleborns being bad, dark magic is the way to go... but, she just didn't believe that any more- well...

"Do you trust me?", she asked back.
There was a time when she had trusted Taylor...
She looked at her kinda surprised, she've never heard her talking so much.
"Its not about that whatever in your bag",Fee tried to explain.
She really didnt care what Taylor did with it, non of her business.
"I just advise you to not use it."

"Yes." Taylor was always wary of people- but she did trust Fee. "I won't." Taylor stands up to stretch out a bit- she really needed to do some dancing soon. She could tell Fee didn't really trust her- which was quite disapointing to be honest. Taylor could forgive and forget, why couldn't other people? She frowned slightly and sat back down. "Anyways, i'm thinking about going for that tournament when i'm older. It would be awesome." Taylor says randomly to lift the mood- people thought she was a bimbo- but she was so much more.

"Thats good", she smiled a tiny smile. But meaning it.
Fee trusted Taylor with not using any dark magical things,but only with that.
At least for now.
"Oh i would love to be a champion", she told her", but i would also be really afraid of the tournament if i was one. Wouldnt you be scared?"

"Hmm, a little bit. It would be... exhilrating. My cousin Damon did it one year." She rolls up her skirt slightly to make it shorter. That's better. "I love... danger." Taylor said with a wink.

Fee's eyes widend.
"He did? What did he tell about it?"
This was exciting.
"Dont get me wrong", she said,"i love danger,too. But just not in overdose."
Fee laughed at herself.Sometimes she was just complicated.
Pff, she was a girl, she was allowed to be.

"Yeah. He enjoyed it- but i think he got scared at some points, i mean, it is pretty dangerous- he met his girlfriend through it though." she said with a laugh. "Damon is a bit of a... daredevil anyway." She pulled out her muggle phone to see if Annaliese had texted her- she frowned slightly. She shouldn't be talking to her, she knew that, but, she was her cousin after all! She smiled at Fee and shoved the blackberry away.

Aiden's eyes followed the lollipop as it fell, then hit the floor and chipped a piece or two off of the top in the process. FAIL. heheh. "Didn't mean to scare you," he added, traces of a smile playing around his lips. The dropped lollipop was now of little consequence, as she simply pulled another right from her pocket. Sheesh, this girl had stashes of chocolate froggies, and lollies too.

Change in sweety goodness? He opened his mouth to say something cheeky, something along the lines of 'What? Gaspar isn't sweet enough for you already?' but he closed it again, thinking better of it. He wasn't gonna bring up that subject unless Ella did. "Not completely bad for you. Probably better than the lump of sugar you're sucking on now." Not that either were particularly good..

" I can imagine", she said,"thats all supern exciting even if you're not a champion."

Fee really loved watching the tournament.Especially with Edmond around.

"Awww he met his girlfriend that way?", she beamed,"thats really special."

She looked over at Taylor, as the girl took something out of her designer bag.
"You have a muggle phone", Fee asked surprised.

"Yeah. And yeah i do- my Dad doesn't know. Tom charmed if for me though, so it always gets signal!" she says with a laugh. "It's rather handy though."
