He grabbed Jaina's hand and left the Gryffie there. |
As Ben pulled Jaina down the corridor, she waved and smiled at Sabel. "Thank you again and tell Arya I said hi and thank you too!" |

Albeit a very, very strange meeting. Shaking his head and stuffing his hands in his pockets, he turned and started down the hallway in the opposite direction. |

Neptune kept Lexi Denver close the entire trip to the dungeons, then closer STILL when they arrived to the gloomy and glum area some people had to inhabit. Neptune pinched her nose with her free hand. "I'm not sure I'm up for offering them improvement tips. It almost seems irreparable at this point. I mean, even Slytherin left. Slytherin! Even he knew better! He knew when to throw the towel in." Well. He did. Just saying. Neptune giggled and buried her face into Lexi. SHE was allowed. Lexi was the known bold and brave one. |
Quote:
Her giggling was keeping her from REALLY concentrating on much else than the fact that she was having a blast with her FRIEND. Yes. They were CLEARLY friends now. Which was odd in and of itself, but hey... stranger things have happened, yeah? Of course. "Do YOU know where their common room is? Hehe. I bet it IS rather COMMON don't you? Nothing like OUR common rooms, I bet," she said with a SNORT. |

Neptune sighed. "Alexandra Denver. You cannot set everything on fire." It was NOT the first time the Gryffindor had suggested death by fire. "We live ABOVE, so no fires below. Besides, Jacob the Quidditch Captain set the couch on fire in our Common Room once and it STILL smells. Last thing the Slytherins needs are more smells." Neptune pinched her nose harder, making the last bit REALLY nasally. ...she thought it hilarious and giggled appropriately as they wandered somewhat aimlessly in search of the Slytherins. "Oh of course. It would have to be. Why would they put the good furniture down here? No, I bet all the old stuff ends up here to rot and return to the earth. Waste not, you know?" Giggle. Neptune reached a bold toe out to move a tapestry and secretly prayed that slime or rats didn't ATTACK her toes. ..And Slytherins behind the tapestry...? No....? |
Quote:
Oh. Right. If she set fire to the dungeons it would rise. Feh. Note to self: Only set fire to things on the grounds. GIGGLES errupted Lexi's little lips at Tuney's words. "You know, I bet nothing in there even MATCHES. How terrible for them," she said seriously. Eww a whole common room full of things that were old and rotty and MISMATCHED. The horror. She stopped and watched Neptune closely as she shoved a tapestry about with her toe. "You know... I bet there are like... hidden entrances and stuff down here. But I wouldn't touch anything if I were you. You might catch something down here. I am sure it breeds bacteria in this dank mess," she said in a warning tone. Yeah. Hands and feet inside the cart at all times. |

Oh. So Lexi's mother told her not to set fires? That made TOTAL sense then, why Lexi WAS always setting fires. Usually when Neptune's mother told her to NOT doing something, it made her want to do it all the more. It was probably true about the matching. But surely there was at least ONE fashion-aware Slytherin that had some skills with a wand. Maybe they took care of themselves and made their room habitable. Maybe. Slytherins WERE the resourceful type, as they say. GASP. Neptune jerked her toe back and moved BEHIND Lexi. "Bacteria?!?!" EEEEEEEP!SQUEAL. "I'll need an antibiotic shot! I don't want Slytheritis! This was a bad, bad, bad idea! SALANDER." .. "SALANDER... what's his last name? SALANDER." EMERGENCY. Neptune Bott had BACTERIA on her TOE. |
Quote:
Wait... oh dear Merlin! "His last name IS Salander," she said with a sigh as she turned to PET Neptune. Calllllm down, Neptune. "We can take you up to the Healer when we get done," she said... Then she had to wonder if Neptune could HEAR her through the charm bubble thingy. PETS. |
Quote:
Neptune, instead, vengefully started casting at the offensive slimy wall. SCOURGIFY. Be clean! And TAKE THAT. Stupid Slytherins. Neptune didn't like any of them at the moment. And come to think of it, since Raiden had graduated, DID she like any of them? SCOURGIFY. "I'm not going to the Hospital Wing! No way." The last horrifying trip there was enough to haunt Neptune for forever. "The Healer should come to ME if I'm in need. It's just silly that she thinks the injured should come to her. Some would call that lazy, you know." Just saying. Or, maybe, Neptune was just mad at the wall for infecting her shoes with Slytherin bacillus. "Then what's his first name? That is strange, Lex." For real. Did she know? WAS HE GOING TO COME RESCUE HER? |
Quote:
Then she nodded her head at the talk of the Healer coming to THEM. She had a point. That other Healer would come out of the wing and come to them. YEAH. Moretti should come treat injured and sickly peoples wherever they are. "His first name is... if you EVER call him this or tell him I told you... His name is Stradivarius. Like the violin," she said with a goofy grin. She didn't understand WHY he didn't like it! Clearing he throat and taking a deep breath she shouted, "SALANDER!! COME SAVE US!" As loud as she could. He better COME to their rescue. This place was gross. |
It was such a lovely day... ... for sleeping in. Woken up by the incessant flicking and chirping of his enchanted scroll, Salander scrambled to get dressed when Lexi said there was an emergency. Right by the corridor dungeons. Panicked that there might've been a fire or some other disaster coming from the Potions classroom he took two steps at a time up from the boys dorms and sprinted across the common room and sprang out from the threshold just to hear voices screaming. One he was pretty sure was his Lexi. He rounded the end of the corridor from the hidden Slytherin entrance to be greeted by the sight of two wood nymphs. *blink* No wait... "Lexi!" he called out, anxiety clear on his face. "Whats wrong?" *blink again* Hey is that.... "Neptune? What brings the Eagle Princess down these parts?" Because if she was looking for Jake she missed him by a whole floor. |
Lexi spun when she heard him calling her name. YAY! Her saviour had arrived at long last. She had not thought about the fact that water was still spraying from her wand when she turned. OOOPS! Her facial expression changed to one of sheer relief though. "MERLIN AND MORGANA! I think Neptune CAUGHT something down here. I feel SICK," she exclaimed as she held her free arm out to Salander for HUGS. Please. There was dungeon gunk everywhere and it scared her. |
Neptune's head tilted as Lexi announced Mr. Salander's name. She would have commented further, but the man of the hour appeared shortly thereafter. It was a little off putting that the savior didn't run to HER for snuggles and hugs. Ruined the romance of the moment, for her, at least. BUT the healing power of compliments soon started to do its job. The Eagle Princess rallied. Probably showed on her all-too-pleased expression, too. "You do, Stra...Salander. What else could lure us to these dreadful depths?" She curtsied to him. Then easily fell back into the Eagle Princess that has an AILMENT role. Oh tragedy. Neptune raised her "injured" foot to back up Lex's cry for their saving. "It's infected." Cue doomsday overture. |
