A set of paths link the courtyard to various areas of the grounds. It’s nice to walk along either on your own or with a friend. The trees on either side of the path help to create a light atmosphere. So go on, take your time and soak up the fresh air, heaven knows students need it.

It was a good day.

Legend slowed his pace as he caught sight of the familiar brown curls up ahead. "Hello Katie." He said with a nod as he walked past her slowly. His eyes fell to her palm which she was holding it out, as if she were in pain. "There's nothing there."

As if automatically, her head turned to the side as she heard the unforgettable voice of Legend Chosen. Or maybe it was just out of habit. Katie resisted a sigh at his unusually formal greeting, the 'hello' was so unlike the boy she had known for so long. It wasn't without reason, she knew that much too. "Do you have to say it that way?" It was formal. And.. cold. And.. "Nova!" Katie called after the rabbit loudly, dark brown eyes having caught sight of the fox. "Nova, stop. Nova, get back here." Nova, you dumb-dumb. The words were on the tip of her tongue but she bit them back along with another huff, eyes narrowing a bit on her pet as she was ignored in favor of some yummy grass. Her pet that was potientally lunch for Legend's pet. She wasn't sure she cared at the moment.

Her attention turned back to the slight stingy pain in her hand, holding her hand at eye level. There's nothing there? The Hufflepuff raised her eyebrows, her feet slowly moving again as she used her other hand to rub and scratch at her palm. "Yes there is, and it hurts."

After a moment of consideration, a looked back at the girl. "What about middle-aged? I think I would be middle-aged for a kid."

"Middle-aged sounds good." For a kid. Personally, Hateya still thought Arya was old, but she could see why Arya didn't want to be. She tried to copy what Arya was doing, but only got about an inch before wimping out and sitting up straight again. It was a lot higher for her than for Arya, she decided.

Hateya hopped down from the railing, brushing a few pieces of dirt off her clothes, "I think I'm going to keep walking. Maybe I'll go look for Vindictus."

"Good." It was agreed then, she wasn't old. And all she had to show for it was a slightly amused grin as she leaned back a bit further before she saw the younger girl attempting what she was doing. Arya did not want to visit the healer anytime soon.

Maybe she'd stop being all gymnastic-y when out and about?

"There's a fork in the pathways up that way." She rose on the railing and pointed down the path. "If you take the trail on the left, it should lead you to all the huts on the ground." As for Arya, she was gonna head for the lake. "I'll see you around Hateya."

Okay, so she was looking for a fork. Why someone would stick it in the pathway, she didn't know, but this was Hogwarts and it was probably best not to question it. Hateya headed off, waving as she went, "Bye Arya!"

Arya waved in return, watching the girl prance off with a grin before she went back to her 'patrolling' and 'rail safety checking', being sure no other younger students were around to imitate her.

Legend didn't know why he had stopped. He should have kept walking. After all Katie didn't deserve his attention. "What way?" He asked slowly. All he had said was hello. Would she have rather he said nothing at all?

Legend watched as the lazy and fat rabbit- er...Katie's pet, began to ignore her. Well it was a rabbit. Did they actually listen to commands? As Katie moved forward Legend had the urge to move back. Or to walk away. Move something. But instead he just stood. He sighed looking at her outstretched hand. It was there when he saw it. A small thin piece of wood stuck right in the middle of her palm. Legend's wand was out before Katie could say anything to protest. "Accio splinter." He said in a dull bored voice. "You are such a baby sometimes."

demented_death_eater · 05-10-2011, 02:50 AM

Professor Vindictus was ignoring those on the pathway as he left his office which was nearby. Truthfully, if there weren't any students on the grounds, he'd run to his final destination.

He puckered up his lips and began whistling a happy tune, and there was a definite bounce to his step as he made his way on the pathway leading to the Lake.

Though, Amy did feel quite proud that she was the FIRST Puff. Not a pioneer exactly..no wait, not a pioneer at all...

OOC: Have to go bed, will reply tomorow after school

Amy seemed confused. "Yeah... I have no idea who Matty is," she said as she lowered her head.

"Well anyways it's nice to meet you Amy!" Jade said smiling at Amy.

Oh. AWWWKWWAARRRDDD TUUUUURRRTTTLLLLLLLE. Major turtle time. Oh its okay Amy grinned, he's a third year who has excessive house spirit Amy grinned, and you..oh. The name had gone. Damn. Um..precious jewel. Ruby? No. Uhhhh, JADE. Yeah Jade, and you Jade Amy grinned away

Zara turned her back to them, hoping they didn't hear her shout, then began to walk straight back to where she came from, crossing her fingers, still hoping they didn't see her or follow her. She tried to walk as casually as possible, to blend in with the other students walking and not be all conspicuous, because they'd obviously see her retreating figure.

He didn't do well in social situations anyway, let alone ones like this. Was he supposed to hug her? (AHHHHHHHHHHH.*cough*) Or was he supposed to give some speech on how "it was all going to be alright" (which he could not do. He'd probably end up talking about cheese).

He rubbed his chin, finally meeting her gaze.

"...I'm sorry." he said quietly, before placing his hand gingerly on her shoulder, his arm draped around her neck.

Nessie thought she had heard Zara, but she wasn't sure. "Matt was that Zara?" asked Nessie picking her head up for a bit to speak and then put it back on his shoulder. She was still crying and she was trying her hardest to stop. She didn't really like people seeing her like this."I'm Sorry!" she said trying to apologise.

Helena nodded, still looking a bit blankly. "My owl," she repeated instantly, but she said it in a slightly weird tone. As in... just HER owl. Hehe. "You've never seen him?" The girl asked, now smiling. Or almost grinning? "Do you have any pets?" Uh... She wasn't sure whether they talked about this before or not, but as far as Helena could remember, they didn't.

"That's good," she smiled, when Viola told her that she had fun. "Shopping. Who doesn't like that?" Aaaand Helena was definitely grinning now. But seriously, who couldn't enjoy shopping? Only... crazy people, most probably. It was like a sport for Helena.

The girl looked very pleased with herself, but Jamie was trying not to flip his tiny lid. Wouldn't of worked, though. She was twice the height of him. D:

W-w-waaaait a minute...

WAY TO JUST NICK HIS SPOT.

Pfft, "you didn't scare me. You just..." what could he say here to sound incredibly cool? "...knocked me off my feet." He attempted the flirty eyes, but it failed miserably. He should stop doing it, because flirty eyes were not made for him, yet he used them on every single girl he met.

"Do you mind if I, uh.." He pointed to the bench multiple times but felt awkward saying, 'CAN I SIT BY YA?' Noooo, no, no.

Aaah, okay. He was expecting unicorns. 'Cause that SURE made a lot more sense! But Brynn smiled and nodded as if understanding completely. This kid looked like he was at that really weird stage for boys, where they're basically..... incredibly weird. "Gotcha, unicorn boy."

He seemed to notice that this whole leaf thing may very well have been simply to get him up so that she could sit down where she wanted. And she waited for him to say something about it, but he didn't. Poor lil fella. Brynn was just in one of those moods where she wanted to tease someone or wind them up a bit, and this boy looked far too gullible to pass up.

Oh, so he wasn't scared? Heh, didn't seem so! She felt a giggle or two bubbling inside her when he inferred that she knocked him off his feet, and once the strange, but very amusing flirty-eyes came out, she couldn't help but laugh. "Sheeeesh, what a charmer. You've got mah heart going pitter patter already."

He began to ask her something. He ended up trailing off, though she caught on, scooted over and patted the seat beside her. "Be my guest."

Unicorn boy? Jamie STAAAAAARED. "I'm not a Unicorn boy. I don't talk to Unicorns. I don't make friends with Unicorns." He didn't even like Unicorns. They were angry creatures who misused their deathly horns. Hopefully, the girl could understand this and not label him as a freak any more. KTHX.

Laughter. Always surrounded by laughing girls, Jamie Keaton was. When she spoke, the third year detected serious sarcasm. "I doubt that." He looked down in self pity for a moment. Yes, he would absolutely love a bit more charm when it came to girls. But he had zero experience in the area, so everything he thought was right, was probably wrong.

"Thanks," oh good. A part of him thought that the girl would not give him his seat back. Even though he was there first. He sat down, making sure that there was a safe distance between himself and the older girl. Not that he was suggesting that she needed extra room, but he was scared of her slightly. Perhaps she was a Slytherin. "My name's Jamie, by the way. Not... Unicorn boy." He tried to make a little bit of humour through his introduction but changed his mind and ended up whispering the end. That was his attempt of putting a bit of normality into the conversation.

Pfft. Normality with Jamie Keaton?

"Never heard of him! Maybe I'll meet him one day..." she replied to Amy. Amy seemed to be forgetting her name... Oh well at least she had remembered it.

"What do you have there?" Jade asked Amy curiously.

Yeah, I'm sure you will, his enthusiasm spreads like wild fire she nodded, grinning. She stood up, before dropping her stuff again. And then promptly bending down and picking it back up, oh yeah, its just my music she nodded, smiling at her. I luffers my music Amy nodded again

Matty sounded like an interesting person to meet. "Oh you like music then?" she asked her. "My boyfriend is crazy about music!" she said with a smile on her face. "Do you play any instrument?" she asked.

Katie sighed this time. Did she really have to explain it to him? Didn't he KNOW how he was talking to her, or was it really just a subconscious resentment of some sort? "That way. I don't remember the last time I heard you say 'hello' to someone who wasn't a stranger or a professor," the Hufflepuff said, giving a slight shrug of her shoulders. Katie knew it wasn't a great idea to bring it up, to have said anything at all, but that didn't stop the words from coming out of her mouth and she didn't regret it. She was tired of not talking to Legend and walking on egg shells around him, sick and tired of how things were now. "It's that.. 'I don't know you' or 'I don't like you enough to greet you normally' thing."

If Legend was suddenly, visibly uncomfortable by her movement that brought them the tiniest bit closer together, an unintentional action from her feet although she was still aimed forward, Katie didn't notice. Nor would she have noticed if Pluto did make a move for Nova, because the rabbit was on it's own as far as it's stubborn owner was concerned at the moment. Her focus was on the sting in her hand, which was relieved after a small, thin piece of wood slid out of her palm. Katie rubbed the place where the splinter had been in sideways, dark eyes shifting up to look at the officially of-age wizard. "I am not. You didn't have to help... but thanks."

Legend shrugged, not really knowing what to say. He didn't want to blow up, because he wasn't mad. He wasn't upset. He wasn't angry. He wasn't sad. He was just disappointed. He said hello on purpose, it was what she deserved.

"I don't know you Katie. At least not anymore."" He shook his head. He didn't It was true. She was different. And so was he. But he didn't know her anymore. She acted different.

Pluto had begun to dig around but Legend wasn't paying him much attention.He was more focused on the girl in front of him. "I didn't have to but I wanted to." The blond gave a stiff nod.

HOLY SHEEP FLUFF ON A TRICYCLE.

"B-bu-buhhhh-b." Matt wasn't really...well, speaking. His dark eyes had grown to the size of saucers, his face as red as a tomato and his arms..oh, his arms. They were held up, stiff, like a scarecrow, flapping every so often, like a mental bird on caffeine suffering from the odd seizure.

Her face was pressed into his shoulder, and the words she said no longer made sense in his head anymore. He didn't know what to do. It was too scary. His mind couldn't physically comprehend the fact that her arms were wrapped round him..A GIRL. WAS HUGGING HIM. A GIRL.

He turned away from the Hufflepuff, and raised his hand. "Hey Zara!" Matt said with a small wave, hoping she'd see the...well, discomfort stained across his expression. She knew him. Hopefully she'd understand.

Zara thought she was off the hook and would be able to escape freely. Then she heard Matt's voice call out, "Hey Zara!" Zara winced, this was one conversation with Matt and Nessie that she was DEFINITELY not looking forward to, EVER. "Really, Zara. You had to open your big mouth. Why not assess the situation before acting next time, shall we?" She mumbled to herself, she wanted to cuss, but she didn't know how to. She never knew any words, all she knew that she wanted to say something like those.

In her mind, she was debating on whether to keep on walking, maybe they'd notice it wasn't her. But her soft brown curls were too obvious, even in a back view. Hesitantly, she turned around. 'Your big mouth got you into this mess, Zara. Use it to get out of it now.' She ordered herself mentally.

As she turned around, she faked a smile. Clearly, she wasn't in the mood for a smile. She just hoped it appeared like a smile, not a grimace. Then she waved her hand high up once and shouted back, "Hi!"

That was all, she just hoped they would let her go now. Maybe her "Hi." would show that she was at loss of words. She looked at them, they sure did appear very awkward. One guy who seemed in pain cause of what just happened, and a girl who was crying her eyes out. Zara wanted to hug Nessie, she needed it. But it seemed that Matt did the job anyway. Nothing left to see there.

Watching her approach them, he couldn't help but feel a great wave of relief. Zara was good at emotional things (not that he knew, he just guessed, considering her feminine-ness and all. Girls loved all that emotional stuff. Where as he..well, he was totally clueless).

He knew she felt just as awkward as he did. He was King of Awkwardness, and he knew his subjects. Zara would kill him for this later, he just knew it. "Hey." he said, more calmly now she was standing beside him. His shouts were no longer needed. Returning her ~~forced~~ smile with a grateful one, he hoped that somehow, in someway, she could...mop up all this weirdness and horror (and an atmosphere that you could cut with a knife) with her awesome.."cleaning skills". "Sorry about this." he muttered to her quietly, under his breath so Ness couldn't hear. And he was. ..A little. They'd look back and laugh, he hoped. Or he'd be murdered. Simple as. The thought made his smile perk up a little, and he turned his gaze to the tear tracks running down Nessie's cheeks. His smile suddenly fell and was once again etched with concern. He squashed the need to push Zara and make her physically hug her himself.

As Zara looked at Matt, she didn't know if she would either smirk or be concerned. His face looked totally washed out for some reason, he probably couldn't handle the awkwardness of hugging a girl. Nessie had probably been his first hug. Now that was something she'd have to remember, and never let Matt forget. But Zara'd save that up for later. Now, she had a person to comfort. Matt's face looked a lot...calmer...once she'd gone to them. Zara intended to rush over to Nessie first, but she decided Matt needed some reassurance first. "What happened?" She whispered. And in a lower voice, she teased Matt but she hope he didn't hear. "Guess you finally decided to tell Nessie you like her and she's crying tears of joy because of your so-called sweetness." And did a little tongues out, which she hoped he didn't see either.

He hoped Nessie didn't mind the sudden addition of Zara. He shot her a quick questioning look. In fact, he thought she'd probably be quite grateful of the female company. He wasn't the best at this sort of stuff, no matter how awesome he thought he was.

"Well, we were talking, and then she was crying, and then we were..hugging." He shuddered, remembering the spasms it'd sent through his body..and they had not been spasms of the good kind. Why the touchy? Why not just a friendly punch in the arm or a sarcastic comment, hmm? Then his mind did a backflip..what if Zara hugged him? Or Ella even? AHHH. AHHH. AHHHHHHHH. Alarm bells started ringing and he took a subtle step away from his fellow first year. "What?" he asked, his ears picking up a slight hum of words coming from under her breath.

Mmhm. Talking to crying to hugging. Zara smirked at Matt. Then put on a smug face. Matt was in deep thought, Zara could tell. Probably imagining all girls surrounding him then crying all at the same time. You know what comes next. Zara watched as Matt took a step backward.

Oh great, what now? This guy must be mental, probably thinking Zara would hug him next and then it's result to a hug attack by every girl who passes by. Slick move, Nessie. Now it'd be an uncomfortable time whenever she'd be with Matt. Zara could hear the electronic voice on her head now saying, "Awkwardness level has reached its maximum potential." Great, a robot existed in her head. Zara raised her eyebrows at Matt, he obviously didn't trust her anymore. 'Wow, that hurt.' Zara thought as she risked a wince while looking to the side.

Recovering quickly, Zara looked up at Matt with a smile. A half-smile. Then she said, "Er, I think I have to go now. See you later Matt," She peered over Matt's shoulder and said to Nessie, "See you later Nessie." Then added more through her thoughts, 'Sorry I couldn't be with you right now. It's hurting me too.'

With a lazy wave, Zara turned her back to them and walked to the path leading to the giant treehouse.
