Hearing the sound of heavy feet, Josephina turned away from the group of three outside the bathroom and found her gaze on that of the Ravenclaw Captain.

"Is there something you'd like to share with us?" Fina asked, arching a brow at the sixth year. "Perhaps after you've return from the loo?" Because otherwise she feared there might be a puddle on the floor and that would be more embarrassing than the first year accidentally investigating unknown territories.

Speaking of the first year, flicking her gaze back over there, Josephina noticed for the first time how SCARED the girl looked. She looked truly sorry about everything that had happened. Not sure whether it was intimidation or what, Fina felt REALLY bad for her. Because you know, even if she disciplined hard (when she did it), she still had a heart.

"Inference. I can see why the sorting hat put you in Ravenclaw," Hadley noted. "Fair enough, but you should heed this as a strong warning that if you're ever caught here or anyplace in the castle you shouldn't be, then I won't be so forgiving next time." After all, the girl did seem like she was scared enough to not attempt going anyplace anytime soon. No need to further intimidate the girl.

Now that her walk up to the towers was interrupted, it was time to continue. Hopefully.

This was all too fun. Especially the part were Jacob came over saying that he didn't do it.

Whatever oddity they found, he'll be sure to blame the Ravenclaw Captain, just in case. Because he looked suspicious enough. Actually, Treyen wouldn't blame him, chances are that he'd blame the one person he least expected. It was a spur of the moment thing. The blaming.

AHA!

She was telling the truth to Hadley. That was very nice of her.

Treyen could leave now, right?

Presley was amazed at her luck, but beyond that, she was stunned. Hadley had said she could see why Presley was in Ravenclaw. That meant she was the first person at Hogwarts who thought Presley was smart enough for the house! Presley tried not to beam at the praise. She nodded. "Yes ma'am. Thank you."
Presley walked slowly out of the hallway, and as soon as she was out of sight, bolted. She really needed a run.

Everything was sorted out. Things clarified. Finlay spoke up. Hadley spoke up. And the Ravenclaw little girl did the same.

Even Jacob had said something before leaving. And, well, Treyen had his fair share of speech a while ago. But now that the girl was off the corridor, he smiled and nodded at both Hadley and Finn, "I suppose I should be heading off as well," he said, before he started to walk away, "See you around," both of you.

And, instead of heading down, he was heading up. UP. To Bishop, of course.

Hmm. Maybe he was actually going to get a bath today. With a yawn Finlay wandered towards the prefects bathroom, hoping thay nobody was in there. He wanted a nice warm bath, where he didn't have to worry about anyone. Thankfully nobody had seen him as he wandered down to the fifth floor, and he managed to get to the prefects bathroom without anybody stopping in.
He yawned again as he threw his robes, and bag onto one of the sofa, before moving over to the bathtub, and turning on all the taps. Yes. It was going to be lovely and warm and relaxing. Hmm. He pondered for a moment before put some bubble bath in. Well nobody else was going to see him in here, so he may as well enjoy himself...

Was this silly? Probably. Iris had been hiding near the Prefects' Bathroom nearly all day. She knew she'd find him there sooner or later though: None of the prefects used the regular bathrooms if they could help it. On the plus side, she'd gotten a lot of her homework done. On the down side, she was bored out of her mind. It was nearly curfew.

Just as the Head Girl was deciding to pack it in and come to the conclusion that the Head Boy was a tramp who didn't shower, she saw him coming towards the bathroom. Quickly hiding back in the little alcove she'd been sat in all day, the blonde waited until Finlay had closed the bathroom door behind him before she moved. Stuffing her Advanced Transfiguration book into her school bag, Iris stood up and walked over to the door.

Muttering the password, then bid the people in the portrait a good evening. Iris poked her head around the door before walking in, to make sure that Finn was in the bathroom alone. She could see him getting ready to have a bubble bath.

How lovely.

Iris wondered if it was how he always spent his evenings after messing around with the feelings of girls that like him. She wouldn't put it past him.

Slipping into the bathroom, Iris smirked, she walked over to the couches and dropped her bag on top of Finn's things. "Evenin', Carmicheal." Then she leant against the wall, folding her arms across her chest. This Head Girl didn't look happy. Nope, not at all.

Finlay was kind of a bit too distracted by the pretty colours in the bath to realise that the door had opened again. Maybe he ought to pay more attention, it would probably get him less punches. Hmm. He figured that was enough hot water now, and turned those taps off, before turning the cold ones on. He really didn't want to scald himself, that would not look attractive at all. "mmm..." He mused out loud as he pulled his tie off, dropping it onto the floor, before beginning to unbutton his trousers. Yes. He was really looking forward to this bath. It was going to be relaxing.

That was when Iris spoke, and Finlay frowned turning around to face her, not bothering about his shirt, that was hanging open now. Well he was going to have a bath. So that okay. Oh dear. Iris really didn't look happy. At all. And Finlay knew exactly why. Fallon. "Good Evening Iris..." He nodded, glancing back towards the bath. Hmm....he wandered how annoyed Iris would be if he got in?

He didn't even notice her come into the bathroom. Finn's observation skills were second to none. Pfft. Iris focused her eyes on the portrait of the mermaid, so as to avoid having to watch Finlay strip. It was Fallon that seemed to want to watch that, not Iris.

As he noticed her, Iris rolled her eyes. She was still leaning against the wall. Iris smirked as the Head Boy glanced from her to the swimming pool of a bathtub. "I'm not going to stop you from getting in the water, if that's what you're thinking." And just to prove her point, the blonde walked over and sat down cross-legged on the edge of the pool. Her shorts were going to get wet, but Iris didn't mind much. Magic was useful when it came to drying clothes.

Oh she wasn't? "Good.." Finlay mused, dumping his shrit onto the floor, before pulling his trousers off. Good thing he's put the swimming trunks on. He'd had a feeling that he probably wouldn't be the only one in here, so thats why he had worn them. Finlay threw Iris a grin. He knew exactly why she was here, but he wasn't about to ask her. If Iris wanted to shout at him for talking to Fallon then she better get started.

With that he stepped into the bath, feeling relaxed already at the temperature. Oh yes. It was very nice. He sat down amongst the bubbles, leaning against the side. Yes. Even with whatever Iris was going to say to him he was going to enjoy his bath.

Isobel could go in the Prefects Bathroom. She had just figured that out. She hadn't known that before; why not? It was beyond her. But, whatever the reason, she hadn't known before but she did now. Isobel gave the password and walked in to the bathroom. She didn't need to use it or anything, she just wanted to go in there, because she could. When she got in there she saw two older people. She knew the girl was Head Girl, and she assumed the boy was Head Boy. She paled. "H-hi," she said, to be polite. But older people scared her. Much like Jaymie. For two sisters not related they sure had a lot in common.

Iris watched the Head Boy as he got in the water. At least he'd considered the fact that he wouldn't be the only one to use this place. Imagine if he'd NOT bothered to wear those shorts! ... Actually. Scratch that idea. Iris didn't want that image.

She sighed. Dropping her legs into the water, the blonde stared at the portrait of the mermaid for a little while. "Why?" Iris said, finally. "What's your motive, Finn? Why?" Focusing her gaze on the boy in the bath, Iris crossed her arms over her chest. He better have a bloody good excuse for all of this nonsense with Fallon.

STAAAAARE.

Because really. Last term he'd screwed her about, letting her fall for him then going 'Actually, fallon... I got a new girl.' Well Iris wasn't going to let him do it again! Not to her best friend!

The door opened. Iris twisted her body around to see which of the prefects it was. "Oh... hello." Hufflepuff? ... But it wasn't Ayra. The Captain? Hmm. Perfect distraction, eh? Iris glanced back at Finn. Convince the Hufflepuff to leave, then get the truth out of Carmicheal. Sorted.

Now Finlay really had no idea waht to do. He could like just tell her to shut up, that it was none of her business, but he figured that would not do at all. The thing was his motives were all good. He wanted to be friends with Fallon that was all. But of course Iris wasn't going to believe him. He could tell already that Iris wasn't going to buy that, that she was going to hate him being friends with Fallon. "Why?" He repeated, just as someone else came it. Well perfect. Now everyone body was going to know his business.

He smiled at the hufflepuff Captain before turning back to Iris. "My motives for being friends with Fallon?" He began, staring the headgirl down. "I'm being friends with her, because I want to be friends with her." And that was perfectly fine by him. "I apologised for what I did last year, she forgave me, and we've moved on." Which was perfectly fine by him too. "I want to be friends with her, and your not going to stop me Iris. If she wants to talk to me she can do what she wants."

Iris cocked her eyebrow at the boy. She listened to everything he had to say, and didn't interrupt him at all. As he said that she can do what she wants, Iris shook her head and let out an exasperated sigh. This boy really knew nothing. "It's not you being friends with her that I want to stop." She said, plainly. Glaring at him, she completely ignored the Hufflepuff Captain. Fallon was probably going to kill her for saying this.

"Do you have any idea what you put her through last year, Finn? She fell for you, hard, and you disregarded her feelings completely. It was months before she even began to pretend like it didn't hurt her any more." She stood up, and walked over to the couches. "And I think that's why she forgave your apologies... regardless of how much you meant them. Because I don't think she ever moved on. Not properly."

"But... you're right. I can't stop you from being friends with her, and I'm not going to." Iris fiddled with her tie. "But she's my best friend. Fallon's like my sister. We look out for each other, because that's what best friends and sisters do. Be friends with her, I'm fine with that. But if you ever try to make something more of the friendship, you better make damn sure that you don't screw her about like you did last year." The Blonde stood up, and picked her school bag up. "Because if you do, I'll be the first person to know about it. And I will make you regret it if you hurt her again." She wasn't stupid. Just from that conversation with Fallon in the Kitchens the other night told Iris just how much Fallon still did like Finn, and she suspected that it was more than just talking that went on in the Observatory.

"Now I'll leave you to enjoy your bath in peace..." So remember my words, Carmicheal. And with that, the Head Girl left the bathroom, giving a look of "keep what you heard secret, please" to the Hufflepuff Captain on the way out.

Okay, bad place to be. The two people were in the middle of an....argument. Isobel turned around and hurriedly left that place. She hadn't really heard anything either of them she said. Maybe she would come back later, because she still wanted to see the bathroom. That was a weird sentence.

OOC: I have permission from Droo to post in here

Now that Marie had finished making Evan look like a pig in the Great Hall it was time to try and make him/herself a little more presentable. Really, that boy needed to learn how to take better care of himself. Then again, he probably gave her these ratty clothes just to make her look bad, which ultimately made himself look bad since she did look like him.

Finally making her way to the prefects bathroom she gave the password and got right in. Ha, Evan should learn not to keep his passwords laying around... in his bag... for her to find.

Looking around in awe she was tempted to take a nice hot bubble bath but opted not to. It would just be weird taking a bath as Evan. She was already dreading if she had to use the loo.

Walking over to the nearest sink she put his bag up on it. Maybe if she dug through it some more she might at least find a different shirt to wear. No such luck. She did find his stash of chocolate frogs though. Silly boy, should have taken those out when he had the chance. Taking one out she opened it and popped it in her mouth. She then threw away the wrapper... and the card that was inside it. She didn't collect them and she didn't really care if Evan did or not.

Looking back through his bag she couldn't even find a comb in it. Figures. He never looked like he combed his hair anyway so why would she think there would be a comb in his bag. Oh well, she would just have to make do with what she had... her fingers and water.

Turning on the tap she got his/her hair wet, then ran her fingers through it after towel drying it. Eh, it wasn't perfect but at least it didn't look like he had just crawled out of bed. Except for that wrinkly, dingy shirt she was wearing.

Hmm... she did have her wand with her. Maybe she should just use that and change into something more presentable.

Simon had followed Jacob out, wrenching his hand away from...himself and trying to decide the best place to go to help switch things over. His companion had suggested a bathroom so they found themselves headed up to the prefects' bathroom, a good a place as any and it wasn't like they didn't have access to the room after all. Their actions were quick, both not wanting to waste the remaining time on the potion for if they were going to be each other Simon was going to make the most of it at least. Not to mention to helped them avoid any body until they were both ready in their borrowed forms.

"Fast enough for you B--..." he mused as he opened the door after giving the password, quickly correcting the name he was gonna say when he spotted the prefect already in there. "...Bennett?" he asked using a minor cough to cover up anything off. "Evan..." he greeted simply with a nod as he walked further in figuring the younger boy would be still following right behind him.

Jacob followed Simon past the painting into the bathroom. One he had used many times when he didn't feel like climbing a whole other floor. And when he wanted a nice quiet pool sized bath. Usually it came without disruptions.

Jacob scanned the room and was about to answer Simon's question sarcastically, when he spotted the prefect already in there. "Evan." he said with a nod, repeating Simon's motions. He then started to undress, putting articles of clothing on a chair for Simon to take. "Okay lets get this over with so I can go ransack your-" he forced a cough. "I mean, set the tapestries on fi-" he forced yet another cough. "I mean, eat lunch at the great hall." yeah that was it. He was going to eat lunch at the great hall... he wasn't going to set loose all the animals in the nursery!

Marie had just taken out her wand and was about to change this horrid shirt she had on when someone entered the bathroom. Well more like two someones. Quickly she slipped her wand back in its holster. It probably wouldn't look too good for others to see Evan using Marie's wand.

Turning when she, or was it he, heard his name Evan nodded. "Hey." Um, what were their names? Marie recognized the one boy as the guy Mia went to the tea party with, and the other one, she thought was a friend of Carter's.

Yeah, she couldn't remember their names though. Oh well, she was out to make Evan look like a fool anyway so it didn't matter if she knew their names or not.

Seeing the boys start to take their shirts off she chuckled a bit. "Um, do you guys need some privacy?"

She had a feeling they were either already polyjuiced like she was or, they were getting ready to make the change. Either way, she couldn't let them know she wasn't Evan now could she.

Simon followed suit, slipping his robe complete with the Gryffindor captain's badge pinned on it off his shoulders, resting it on the chair as well before moving again to loosen his tie. The answer they got in return to their greeting seemed slightly different then previous encounters with the Slytherin but he didn't have time to dwell on the thought as his partner's words caught his attention more fully.

He raised an eyebrow turning to look at the other boy as he started to talk about his plans, each time breaking off before finishing until Jacob/Simon settled on the answer of lunch. The faux Gryffindor wasn't doing anything to set his mind at ease that this idea on the potions assignment was a good idea. "Ah no..." Simon answered trying better to match his persona's voice as he slipped off his tie adding it to the pile. "Not necessary,"

Right? The faux Ravenclaw swallowed absently hoping they werent in for a surprise.

Though a surprise was what Simon got as he opened his shirt and slipped that off as well, the action revealing that the tattoos went further up his companion's arms then just his elbow. He shook his head to brush off the shock, passing the shirt to Jacob and taking the Ravenclaw clothes back in return and redressing his upper half.

OOC: I got permission from Droo.

Okay...

Patrolling the corridors with those high heels was PAINFUL!!! A torture indeed. Plus he was feeling weird, acting like Iris and doing Head Girl duty all together was too much for his free habit of body so he had to take a break like RIGHT NOW!!! Maybe washing his face with fresh cold water and taking a deep breath or more would help. Yes, that worth trying.

So, the moment he saw the entrance, Josh/Iris entered the Prefects' Bathroom and the moment he did so, he quickly got rid of those heels not really paying attention to the voices around. Getting rid of those shoes was much more imprtant and urgent! When he took the little shoes off, Josh rubbed his tiny girly feet some while helping himsefl with balance by leaning against the wall there. Eh...he felt better now.

And it was only when he felt better that he realised there were others in the place. Ugh! What if they were girls and...ah...nevermind they were only Evan, Simon and this...Ravenclaw Captain. Phew! Letting out a loud sigh of relief, Josh/Iris approached them taking slow steps with Iris' tiny barefeet and greeting them with a kind wave. ''Hi, guys! Party here?''

Eh? That was probably not the way the Head Girl would speak but it seemed like it was not occuring to Josh right now. So, flashing them the pretty smile of Iris Beaumont, he walked to the nearest sink to wash his or her...whatever...face...

Ooooh! The feel of cold water on his face....was good! But that was until he realised the weird colours and stains in his hand

Eeeeeeeeep! He had just ruined the make up....

Ugh!.

Jacob took the Clothes the... Jacob didn't even know what to call him. It was his refection in the mirror, but he was not the source of the reflection. In fact there wasn't a source at all. Simon was Jacob and Jacob was Simon. It was confusing... Jacob didn't like this. And he was running late, all his plans were going to collapse.

Privacy? What for. "Nah we're good." he stated.

But all the sudden Iris entered the bathroom. He'd never seen this place so packed, the most he'd ever seen in here was 2 and that was him and Patroclus. But now there were four. The Room was big, but it was still an unusual sight.

Jacob finished dressing in the Gryffindor robes, he looked at the badge. It was only slightly different, but different enough to feel awkward. He wasn't even going to look in the mirror or he'd scream. This wasn't as interesting as he'd thought it'd be... he wasn't sure the plan was going go as he'd planned it to.

When finished dressing as a Gryffindor, Jacob gave Simon a nod before heading out. Yup. He'd wasted enough time, now he had to hurry to get everything done.

Hearing a voice Simon looked up, inwardly thankful that he was 1/3 of the way through buttoning his shirt when he registered the Head Girl's presence. Bearing barechested in front of the girl might have gotten a flush to his skin...as it was there might have been, but Jacob's skin coloring did better to hide it.

Evan...not a problem. But Iris?

"Seems that way does it," Simon remarked trying his best to act like Jacob might. Geez he was too good to the Ravenclaw, actually behaving at a time he could get the boy in sooo much trouble. Soemthing he had doubts his companion had the same qualms about.

Speaking of which where was he? he mused looking around only to see his double...well himself heading out of the bathroom. About to call out to stop him, he stopped himself with a soft sigh. It wasn't like they could follow each other around for the entire hour and he himself appeared caught at the moment.

Finishing the buttons, he added the Ravenclaw tie, turning towards the mirrors absently to help him out and make sure it was straight. It was then pseudo Jacob got the first chance to see just what he looked like.

Oh man!

Marie stood there watching the other two boys change clothes. She didn't even think that it probably didn't look so good for her to be staring at them since she was in the body of Evan right now. All she could think was 'Wow, look at those tattoos'.

It wasn't until Iris walked in that Marie snapped out of the daze she was in.

WHOA!

Girl in there with them...

Okay, technically she was a girl too but hey, she looked like a guy and no one knew the difference now did they. "Um yeah, one big happy party in here." Yeah right, like she was happy being stuck in this body... and these clothes.

Okay! Maybe the make up was ruined but...it could be fixed, right? It was nothing to freak out over. Yet, there was still a problem; Josh had no idea how to fix messed up make up. So...there was nothing to do but to clean it. Yes, just clean it all. With the joy of finding this great idea, Josh washed the girly face of Iris he had with loads of water until the last bit of fake face colour left his face. Heh. That was way better. It felt way better. Why did girls ever need to change their appearances with make up anyway? If you were pretty, you were always pretty with or without make up. Just like Evelyn was.

After drying his face, the boy eyed his very girly reflection in the mirror. Well...Iris was pretty without make up as well. He had to make up a mental note to mention this to her. Smiling a bit at himself, the smile was pretty too, Josh looked around to remind himself who also were there. Simon, Jacob and Evan. Yet the two of them seemed to be leaving. ''Hey!'' he said all in a sudden wondering where Simon was going to be off with that Ravenclaw. That Ravenclaw!!!!! This was not a very girly was of adressing to them though, was it? So he decided to try to talk a bit girly ''Where do you think you are leaving to then...handsome???!!'' he asked Jacob(Simon) who just had spoken to her. And yeah, it was very hard not to grimace right after he had said that.

Then Josh blinked at Evan when he spoke up. He did not sound too happy, did he? On the other hand he remembered Evan as someone who kept whining and complaining about stuff all the time. This was what Slytherins did all the time, after all and Josh was about to comment about it. Hopefully he had remembered that he was not Iris and Iris was a Slytherin too. Instead he decided to go a bit Head Girlish towards him ''I don't think this is a good place for parties though. This place has a certain purpose and it is not for your own means of entertaintment.''

Marie as Evan looked at Iris with a raised eyebrow. Wasn't she dating Aaron? Why was she talking to Simon like that, or was it Jacob she was talking to? "There something going on there with you two that Aaron needs to know about?" Marie didn't really know Aaron at all other than what she heard from Evelyn and what Evan had told her a few terms ago, but she really didn't think he would be the type to be happy about his girlfriend talking to other boys like that.

What? The loo not a good place to party?

Normally Marie would agree but come on, look at this place. It was HUGE. They could easily have a party in there. OF course she knew Evan wouldn't agree with that so she agreed with Iris. "Yeah, I guess you're right. I need to get out of here anyway. I'm supposed to be patrolling... somewhere... I tihnk." Yeah, that sounded real convincing there now didn't it.

Oh well.

With only about a half hour left of being Evan she headed towards the door. She had other people she wanted to see. Like Mina.

Now where would that girl be?
