| | The Maze 
“Drink one” The sign over the small shelf of miniature potion bottles intrigues you almost as much as the small tent set up next to the marquee does. You’re tempted to take one, and as you take a sip a tingling spreads throughout your limbs. The entrance to the tent looms over you as your body begins to shrink. Looking around at your surroundings, which are even bigger now, for everything is still in its normal size, you step forward into the tent and find walls of tall hedges before you: The entrance to the maze.
As you make your way in, your path is frequently adorned with funny animal topiary, be it flamingos, toads, or even turtles. Butterflies flutter here and there and every once in a while your path will lead to a dead end clearing. You can either back track or sit down on the provided benches and enjoy the view of a small pond complete with water lilies. You’ll find as you make your way through the maze that the time of day runs on an enchanted loop. At first, the sun rises, dew sparkling prettily on the leaves and hedges, flowers opening up to drink the morning sunlight. Walk a little further and it becomes a lazy afternoon. Butterflies float around as some of the enchanted flowers being to sing and hum. Eventually, the sun begins to set. A romantic hue accents the pathways as you weave your way deeper into the maze. While the enchanted sky darkens, you reach out a hand and catch a snowflake. The moon rises, reflecting off the now snow covered hedges, a perfectly peaceful setting.
So come on in, get a little lost, find your way to the end of the maze where you’ll find yet another basket, this one brimming with small blue potion bottles. Feel like returning to normal size? Then go ahead and drink one, which will cause the tingling to start again now to turn you back to normal size. Should you ever get lost, don’t you panic! Here and there throughout the maze you’ll find baskets filled with maps for those who prefer knowing where they’re going.
OOC: You can only be so small, specifically 15cm's. So no matter how many shrinking potions you drink you will still be the appropriate size for the maze and no smaller. Same with getting normal sized. Drinking multiple potions won’t leave you a giant. Also, the maps are conveniently spelled to show the holder a “you are here” dot. |

"I'm fine," Kyle answered, her wand held strongly, "Lumos" she called out her wand lighting, the spot infront of her, which wasn't that much that she couldn't see. The nice part was her wand lit the same rate as it did regular size, so it felt like she could see for yards and yards. "Good," Selina called back. It had become a force of habit for Selina to take charge in situations. Her mother had called it the Harry-Potter-complex, but she called it looking out for her friends. Being this small only meant that normal sized things could potentially kill them. It was weird to think that a small animal could walk by and crush them all.
"So Kyle, why did you drink the potion?" Seilna was really regretting her choice at this point.

So she just smiled a little and patted him on the back. "I'm sure there will be another time when you can wear the Superman outfit. The last day of term? Plus if they get mad, it's not like they can kick you out, it's the last day anyway." She suggested with a laugh. And then Ellie could crack out her Superwoman outfit and they could take over the world with their awesomeness!
Party? What par- Oh. The one she was at. "It's actually pretty cool! It's kinda fun dressing up. I haven't gotten tea or anything yet. The "Drink One" sign caught my eye first." She shrugged. Good thing she wasn't hungry. Plus she'd take shrinking herself and traveling through a giant maze full of bunnies over eating any day. "You enjoying yourself?" She asked looking at him with a smile.
Other than okay? Terrible. "It was fine." She lied. "I saw an old friend for a day. Christmas came around and it was... good spending time with mum and, er, stuff." She was terrible at lying. Normally, she wouldn't lie about anything, but she didn't think Alex wanted to hear about all her family problems since her father passed. She didn't want to bore him. She moved on to his Christmas. Alex's hesitance on his "friend" didn't phase Ellie. "Oh really? A friend from school or...?" She wondered with a smile.
They kept on walking and Ellie noticed the random bunnies scurrying around and the birds tweeting... She wondered what it was. It being the relationship between her and Alex. She knew they were friends obviously, but did friends link arms? She normally didn't unless she was really close to someone. She felt close to Alex. Or at least she really liked him. But she couldn't help but wonder if he felt the same. Alex glanced to his side to look at the pretty girl next to him. He shrugged and flashed her a grin. "I like the way you think, miss. But unfortunately that won't happen." he said. "I don't think that outfit would fit anymore..." he mused. Oh wells. He could be cool without his Superman outfit. Right? Gulp. "Well, let's see I'm currently 15 cm's tall, I'm walking around in a never ending maze in a costume that itches but I'm also with Ellie Johanson so yeah I'm enjoying myself." he chuckled and winked at her. "Things like these don't happen every day." Just stating the obvious...
Alright, she was so totally lying to him! Liar, liar pants on fire! Alhtough her pants weren't actually on fire, actually she didn't wear pants at all. It was a dress... Yep. And she looked snazzy in it. Oh right back to the lying. "It was... Fine?" he asked and raised one eye skeptically at her. "What was it that didn't make it good?" Now tell Mr. Reed.
He nodded his head slowly. "Yeah a friend from school." he flashed her a smile and tugged on her arm. "Nevermind, come on. I want to get out of this maze before I un-shrink. Or whatever it's called." he chuckled. Off the subject of Emma. Phew. Like.. Please? ooc: I love how Ellie is thinking of their relationship and Alex is thinking of bunnies and pink underwear! bahah

Please? ooc: I love how Ellie is thinking of their relationship and Alex is thinking of bunnies and pink underwear! bahah Ellie smiled at his grin. He said his costume probably wouldn't fit anymore. "Nothing a little 'Engorgio' charm can't fix." She said with a shrug. She then had the mental image of Alex in a 5 year olds superman costume. Er... Oddly hilarious.
Heat rose to Ellie's cheeks. He was enjoying himself with her? "Gah, stop, you're making me blush, Alex." She said with a grin, looking the other way, trying to hide her face. Whyyy did that cute boy always make him blush? Not that she really minded... She looked up at him just as he winked. "Well it just so happens that I'm enjoying myself too." She said, pulling herself a little closer to his side as they walked.
Yeah, he saw right through that lie. Ellie had never been good at lying. In fact, she was terrible. Ellie sighed. "It's just... My mum." She paused, a frown on her face. She didn't want to spill her whole life story on Alex. "To make a long story short, my mum doesn't want me at Hogwarts. She doesn't want me to have anything to do with witches and wizards. She blames us, the "magically inclined"," She used her fingers as air-quotes. "For... for my father's death.... In truth, I almost didn't come back after the holiday break." She said quietly. There was a lot more behind it, but... That could wait for a different time.
Ellie looked at Alex as he mentioned the "friend from school". The way he said it was odd, and then he changed the subject so abruptly. Ellie didn't know why he acted that why, it seemed like he didn't want Ellie to know... "Uhm, yeah. Right." She said, back to reality. "Yeah, let's get out of here." She said with a half smile. OOC: bahah, what a dork. |

Arriving at the Maze, Patroclus turned to Destiny, his hand still in hers; however now that they had stopped, he thought it best to let it fall, if he blushed anymore he would faint from a rush of blood to the head. "The Maze!" He grinned, presenting the maze he and his prefects had laboured over to get right, "It is incredbile!"
Moving over to the potions the Lion selected two, and returned to the side of his date....... "All we have to do is drink these, and then we are small enough to enter the maze!" It would be so much fun, "However I think we may need to eat all the chocolate first, as It won't shrink with us!"
He wasn't complaining, and he doubted Destiny would either. Destiny wasn't quite sure when her heart beat faster; when Evelyn made her run those million runs during the summer or when she was with Patroclus.
But then again, he did kind of run them through the whole marquee to get to the maze.
The maze! The place they were going. All the staring at the Perfect Prefect chocolate on the tables jumbled her brain and she had forgotten where they were headed. Giggling slightly once they arrived, she hadn't expected him to drop her hand so quickly and the smile that was on her face slowly disappeared. "Incredible." she repeated, glancing at the maze briefly before watching Patroclus move over to the potions. Oh no! Destiny had meddled with too many potions for her to be drinking any, but she couldn't possibly say no to him.
Hmm.
Taking one of the potions off of him, her smile returned as she had the most BRILLIANT idea ever. Why did they have to eat now!? "So, this potion will shrink us, right? And I have this WHOLE tray of chocolate things, right?"
Did he get where she was going with this? "We could shrink ourselves first and then eat the chocolate. It would be like..chocolate bigger than us!"
So. Much. Chocolate!

OOC: bahah, what a dork. Alex grinned widely and nodded his head deep in thought. He could of course do some magic on the costume, or he could just grow up and face facts; He was too old for a superman costume. "Er, yeah... Or you know I can just cut out the big 'S' and sew it on all my clothes." he chuckled and wiggled his eyebrows. Now that was classy right there.
He made her blush? Okay, he took that as a good sign. A very good sign indeed. He looked her way and smirked a little. "Oh I am, am I?" he mused. "I would apologize but I don't want to." he grinned to himself. Why would he apologize for something that made him so happy? Didn't make sense at all. "I'm glad you are." he smiled genuinly. So they were both enjoying themselves... Interesting.
Whaaaat? Alex stopped walking for a second before the shock faded and he started walking next to her again. "Oh wow, I... I didn't know that." he murmured. Well, yeah duuuh obviously he didn't know that. What if she hadn't come back after the holidays? That wasn't a thought he wanted to dwell on. "I'm sorry, El." he said and hugged her tighter to him through their hooked arms. "I'm glad you came back anyways." he said and tried on a smile. "Otherwise there would have been a maa-aad Alex Reed roaming the corridors at Hogwarts." he winked.
Relieved that Ellie hadn't picked up on anything Alex looked around them curiously. Now, how exactly would they get out of that? "Um, is getting out even possible?" he chuckled. Perhaps that was why it was called a maze, because it was a-maze-ingly hard to get out of. Geez, really he had to stop with the maze-jokes. But they were so a-maaze!ing.

"Geez, really he had to stop with the maze-jokes. But they were so a-maaze!ing." <<-- *double facepaaalm*
Ellie laughed lightly at his idea. "Now there's and idea." She replied. Super Alex. The Super Wizard of Super Hogwarts. Excellent. She laughed again as Alex did his signature eyebrow wiggle. It felt good to laugh again..
She really needed to get used to all this blushing madness. But then again, it seemed like Alex enjoyed it, so maybe not. Ellie always blushed around Alex. That was like, her thing. Ellie was glad. Because Alex was glad. So Ellie was glad that Alex was glad that Ellie was enjoying herself because Alex was enjoying himself. Got it? Got it. Good. Yep.
Looking off to the side, she frowned. "Yeah, no one knew." She said quietly. She didn't want to tell anyone that she might not come back. Ellie had a feeling that they'd go crazy and beg her to stay. That would just make thing harder for everyone. Ellie felt Alex pull her in tighter and she hugged him back, resting her head on his shoulder. "Thanks." She whispered and smiled softly when he called her El again. She loved it when he called her that. She laughed at his next comment. She could picture Alex storming through the halls with an angry look on his face. "Yes, and nobody would want that... I'm glad I came back too." She said. "I would have missed you too much." She added honestly.
Right, how would they get out? Ellie looked around, then remembered the sign at the beginning. Althouuughh, she didn't really mind being stuck in the maze foreeeever with Alex... "The sign said there would be tables set up throughout the maze with growth potions... Now we just have to find one." She said with a shrug.

Before the night was out, she'd most-likely have Jayce or Thiago carrying her around like the rich young lady she was dressed as. Beauty came with a price, didn't it? It had always come so damn natural to Eiri that she had forgotten it.
If only there was someone to be pretty for now... Oh well. As usual, she had come to this party without a man on her arm. Jayce never liked them all that much, and Thiago was rather antisocial as well. It would have been too cute if she had taken Cass, but it was far too late to be thinking about that now. However, if he showed up in a Beetlejuice jacket that matched her dress, she'd have to reconsider. Vashti had been eyeing the maze ever since she'd first entered this whole tea party thing but only now was she finally going to go through it - or try to at least. As she approached the entrance, she noticed someone simply standing there, perhaps struggling with whether or not to go into the maze. Or perhaps waiting for someone? She didn't know, but simply standing there all alone couldn't be that much fun.
It was only when she was right beside the girl that Vashti realized she recognized her. "Hey Eirian," she greeted with a smile. Then, with a brief glance at the maze entrance and the "Drink Me" sign above the shelves, she asked, "You planning on going in?"

When had she gotten so big? Awwwww... That made Eirian feel old. Although, she was seventeen... Old. So old. "Ola," she greeted, smiling weakly. "I am not sure... I am so lost already. I am not sure a maze is the best idea for me..."
Sigh. Lost indeed... Life had spun her around and set her loose on the world, and Eirian hadn't quite been able to catch herself since. Then again, with her grandmother dead, even now, Eirian didn't know what to do with herself. How did people care for themselves just after they realized how much freedom they could truly have with someone else pulling the strings?

Kurumi leaned against one of the hedges utterly exhausted. She had accidentally made her way into the maze when she had been coming back from the Tea Cup ride and now she had no idea where she was. Sighing, she attempted to couch down and momentarily forgot that she was wearing a giant puffy white ball gown and nearly lost her balance. At least she had worn flat shoes and not heels, right?
Walnut meowed and rubbed his head against the fabric of her dress. “I know,” Kurumi sighed. “We are lost.”

Sigh. Lost indeed... Life had spun her around and set her loose on the world, and Eirian hadn't quite been able to catch herself since. Then again, with her grandmother dead, even now, Eirian didn't know what to do with herself. How did people care for themselves just after they realized how much freedom they could truly have with someone else pulling the strings? So lost already? But she wasn't even in the maze yet- Oh. "Metaphorically speaking, you mean?" Vashti clarified. She was pretty sure Eirian meant metaphorically, emotionally lost...that sort of thing. Because she obviously wasn't literally lost. Or was she? Did she have short term memory loss and no longer know how to get back to the castle? Nah, probably not. "Care to talk about it?" she asked, concerned. "Perhaps while also getting lost in a maze?" Because the best way to talk about being emotionally lost was to get physically lost as well.
That made sense in Vashti's mind at least. "You never know, maybe by getting lost in a maze, the two lost feelings might cancel each other out and then you won't be lost." That probably only made sense in her mind too. Still, she scooped up two of the "Drink Me" bottles and offered one to Eirian.

"It is a long story I would not burden you with, I should think." But why not get lost?
With a laugh, Eiri took the bottle from Vashti. "Brigada, minha filha," she thanked her. "Do not worry... I understand what you said. Mostly. Philosophy is quite tricky to produce off the tongue."

Vashti smiled. "I think it's neat," she replied, "how you can speak another language so naturally like that. I wish I could speak more than one language." She was sadly lacking in the multilingual department, English being her one and only language. Perhaps not very good in the long run, especially if she eventually wanted to travel to different countries.
A long story, was it? Well Vashti liked long stories. "What are friends for?" she answered with another smile.
Heh. Philosophy. "I wasn't really trying to go all philosophical on you. Sorry about that." She hadn't even known that it was phiosophical in the first place. "Anyway. Ready to try it?" she asked, lifting up the little bottle. "Here goes nothing." And she took a gulp.

Jacob got up quickly and offered his hand to help Mia... See Jacob could be a polite gentleman. He might not like being polite or formal, but he Can.
Well she certainly hadn't been expecting that. And it would be rude of her not to accept his offered hand. Mia gave him an appreciative smile and placed her hand into his and eased her way out from the table.
When they began to move outside, Mia moved her hand from his and instead linked arms with him because that's how they did it back in the day and because she felt a little weird holding someone's hand that wasn't her boyfriend.
As the maze came into view, she looked at Jacob with a little grin. "So shall we take a sip of potion and shrink ourselves?"

"It is a bit overrated. I know a bunch of languages, and I still cannot communicate with anyone these days." Not Jayce, not Thiago, not anyone else around her... She was alone. She could know every language in the world and yet no one would understand a word she said, a feeling she felt, a thought she vocalized. "I may have a way with languages, but I am no good with words."
"Long stories?" she asked, laughing. "Fine, fine. But let us go into the maze first? I do not want to be overheard..." Eiri would be the gossip of the school! And Merlin, that would be bad. No one knew the full truth, and she honestly didn't want anyone involved to...
With a roll of her eyes, the Brasileira scoffed. "It is no problem, filha. Trust me." Staring at the bottle, Eirian sighed anf raised it. "To your health, Vashti!" she exclaimed, raising the little glass neck to her lips and taking a small sip that didn't match her dramatic flourishes. "Huh... Tastes funny."

Vashti looked up at Eirian, raising an eyebrow. "How so?" And who was going philosophical on whom now? Hehe. She then nodded, agreeing to going into the maze before getting into long stories. Especially if she didn't want to be overheard? So it was a really secretive long story. Iiiinteresting.
But wait. When had Eirian gotten that tall? Vashti was certain she was not that short. She was actually pretty average, or maybe just a little on the tall side. And she was also certain she hadn't had to look up to Eirian this much just a few minutes ago.
Waiiiiit a minute! Everything had suddenly gotten taller, not just Eirian. That meant...OH MERLIN! She was super small all of a sudden! And now she understood why that whole "Drink Me" thing had seemed vaguely familiar. This was exactly what happened when Alice in that book/movie Alice in Wonderland drank a bottle that said "Drink Me."
Oh, wonderful.

Kyle smiled, "Don't worry we'll be fine." She reassured.

Oh, wonderful. Eirian watched Vashti with sad eyes. She didn't even know how to answer that. So, with a weak smile, she shrugged it off and turned to the maze, brushing a loose curl behind her diamond-studded ear. The hedges seemed to be stretching towards the sky, now that she was paying attention to them. Were they enchanted? She could have sworn before that they had bee stationary... Though, that was back when she hadn't been close to tears.
... And it was before they drank the potion...
Oh! Shrinking potion? Okay. She could deal with that... Honestly, Eiri didn't understand why they had it here, but, as she looked back at Vashti, she motioned for the both of them to move into the maze and walked ahead to the best of her ability, grunting as her heels dug into the ground and her skirt tried to trip her up. She had made such a bad wardrobe choice...

"Hey if you two want to join us over here you can, the more the merrier eh?" She asked smiling. Her smile so big as it always was, but seemed bigger as she was so small.

Wait, What? They had to shrink? Jacob eyed the potion, He didn't like the thought of drinking a potion that he didn't get right away. Someone could have tampered with it.
But has that ever stopped Jacob before... He unhooked his arm for Mia's and took a potion for her and himself. "after you." he said, this time more concern for his own health than being a gentleman

But then again, he did kind of run them through the whole marquee to get to the maze.
The maze! The place they were going. All the staring at the Perfect Prefect chocolate on the tables jumbled her brain and she had forgotten where they were headed. Giggling slightly once they arrived, she hadn't expected him to drop her hand so quickly and the smile that was on her face slowly disappeared. "Incredible." she repeated, glancing at the maze briefly before watching Patroclus move over to the potions. Oh no! Destiny had meddled with too many potions for her to be drinking any, but she couldn't possibly say no to him.
Hmm.
Taking one of the potions off of him, her smile returned as she had the most BRILLIANT idea ever. Why did they have to eat now!? "So, this potion will shrink us, right? And I have this WHOLE tray of chocolate things, right?"
Did he get where she was going with this? "We could shrink ourselves first and then eat the chocolate. It would be like..chocolate bigger than us!"
So. Much. Chocolate! A smile erupted onto Patroclus’ face, Trust Destiny to want to be able to eat Giant Profiteroles! “When we shrink, we will be about 15 centimetres tall, so the Profiteroles will be about the size of a beach ball!” Dang that would be a lot of chocolate! “We can give it a go if you want!”
Uncorking the potion bottle wrapped his arm around Destiny’s and Skulled the liquid.
The sensation that began instantly was beyond anything the boy had felt before, as the liquid rolled down his throat , his body began to tingle every limb felt like it was being sucked back into his body, but in fact he was shrinking, and fast! The lovely Destiny loomed above him, and in a voice that to her would have sounded like a pip-squeak mouse he called out, “Come on!” |

Mia was a little nervous about taking a potion that was going to shrink her down in size. But the excitement definitely outweighed the nervousness. It would be an adventure and if there was one thing she liked. It was stepping into the unknown.
She eyed Jacob warily as he held out the bottle to her. "You're not going to hightail it out of here, the moment I become a tiny person?" She asked as she took the potion. Mia raised the bottle to her lips and hesitated only a split second before downing the entire contents.
Her body began to tingle and she almost giggled as the sensations flooded her and then before she knew it, everything around her was big. She looked up at Jacob and waved her tiny hands at him. "Come on Jacob."

Eiri looked up, smiling endearingly - albeit a bit forcedly - as her attention was called for. Kyle? They didn't know each other too well, but she was always so nice... And she liked nice people. Perhaps she'd tell Vashti the long, taxing story later? It wasn't as if she didn't trust Kye, but... She didn't want many people to know. Yeah, she'd tell Vashti later. This way, Eirian could get out of messing up her makeup with the tears of guilt she knew would come if she told the tale.
"That sounds great," Eirian said, smiling and looping her arm around Vashti as she walked towards Kyle. "That's fine, right Vashti?" Wait... We? "Who else...?

"Anyways just thought we'd all probably have a better and less treacherous time walking together than apart." She turned to Vashti and smile, "Hi, I'm Kyle Manning" introduced herself with a happy smile.

Sometimes living in the one world gave her a disadvantage. But she loved her childhood none-the-less.

Uncorking the potion bottle wrapped his arm around Destiny’s and Skulled the liquid.
The sensation that began instantly was beyond anything the boy had felt before, as the liquid rolled down his throat , his body began to tingle every limb felt like it was being sucked back into his body, but in fact he was shrinking, and fast! The lovely Destiny loomed above him, and in a voice that to her would have sounded like a pip-squeak mouse he called out, “Come on!” Destiny had absolutely no idea how big fifteen centimeters were, but the way Patroclus' said it, made it sound really small. And if she was going to be really small and those Profiteroles were going to be the size of a beach ball, well, she was going to be in chocolate heaven, wasn't she?
Placing the tray down on the ground by her feet, so no one could STEAL it, her smile only grew as he wrapped her arm around hers. Hehe, she saw that on the muggle box before..ahem. Placing the phial to her lips, she didn't even have a chance to drink the potion before Patroclus started to shrink..and shrink fast! She had to giggle at his size and that squeaky voice and before she had a chance to even think about picking him up and putting him in her pocket, because she would have done it, she tilted the phial back, downing the potion.
Her body tingled and before she knew it, she was the same height as the Prefect again. Doing a quick check of herself to make she she didn't have a foot larger than the other, she grabbed Patroclus' hand and pulled him to the Profiteroles. "Sweet Merlin! I love it."
