On the outskirts of the grounds a giant purple tent has been pitched up in the knee deep snow by the groundskeeper to host Professor Roslund’s latest fun incentive. Pack up your telescope and put on your night clothes and come out to the grounds for a fun time with balloon gazing, some food and candy, music and the joyful company of your peers and professors. Remember to dress sensibly since it will most definitely be a cold night. In the center of the festive tent Professor Roslund can be found in his navy blue night robes putting up decorations with the help of his helpers Kurumi Hollingberry and Beatrice Castell who came up with the sleepover idea originally.
Along the walls of the roomy tent a number of pots which give off heat are put up to keep the cold at bay. Around the tent Professor Roslund has enchanted lamps to light up the tent. On the floor a sufficient amount of bean bags, sleeping bags, tables and benches are scattered out over the center of the ground which is covered with warm rugs. Feel free to strike up some light conversation about astronomy or whatever could tickle your fancy on a magical night like this as you eat and be merry together or use your telescopes to spot some balloons. The whole right side of the tent has been cleared to allow for students as well as visiting professors to put up their telescopes and spot some balloons still floating about or maybe an elusive constellation.
Along the left wall you’ll find the food and drink section which mainly consists of sandwiches, salads, candy, hot coca and tea. You shouldn’t have skipped the food in the great hall but if for some reason you skipped dinner there is enough to quench even a starving 7th year boy.
OCC: All SS & School rules apply. This is a party not a lesson. Have fun, meet and interact with new or old users. You will not receive any house points for any balloons you may spot, but a sense of pride and accomplishment for succeeding in what you do.

Minerva walked in to the party. She was excited to be there. She had her Cleveland Browns blanket wrapped around her already to keep warm. "Hey everyone" she said as she walked around. "Hello Professor, this is a really neat idea. How are you this evening?"

Logan heard a familiar voice and grinned as soon as he saw Cardigan. "Well well well if it isn't the awesome dancer!" he said smiling and hugging her. "Glad to see you!" he said, glancing at the candy again. He was tempted to go and just DIG IN but you know...he had some people to talk to. And where were the boys?! It seemed like there were only girls here. But of course there wasn't a problem with that.
"Oh ya awesome dancer,"Cardigan said,giggling quite a lot from all the hyperness.That was another side affect as well.So don't offer her candy anyone!!!"As am I,"she replied back,stifling yet another giggle.The Slytherin stole another glance at all the candy and snacks.Must...resist...the... urge,she thought as her hands twitched,reaching out by habit.She's had too much candy over the past two days!

Ella raised her eyebrows "Oh yeah? I'll have to think of another way to trick you then." She laughed, drumming her fingers mischievously. She then gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "I can't wait either. The Professor said it was going to be the perfect night to find stars!" She looked around at the other girls Logan was talking with, smiling. She was excited to spend time with classmates outside of lessons. It would give her a chance to get to know more people.
"No...,"Cardigan said,wearing an expression that said 'this is only the beginning of my hyperness'.Just looking at candy made her hyper!Especially Chocolate,one of the best inventions in the world!Scientifically proven,I must add.Hopefully Selena Zabini-Riddle didn't feed her Cruppy Chocolate!Did they get sick from it just like muggle dogs?The world may never know...
Presley wasn't too sure about this whole "outdoor-sleepover" thing. It was December after all, and so cold outside. But she went, figuring that Professor Rosalund wouldn't let them freeze to death. She'd have some sort of charm around the sleeping area to keep them warm. Regardless of that, she brought three of her thickest blankets, and her pillow. Because Presley would be cold at night even if it was summer. She set up her things in an empty spot, not paying attention to who it was next to.
Then she stepped around other people's bedding over to the drinks table, getting herself a nice glass of apple juice. It was her favorite drink, and she was glad they had it. She hadn't particularly wanted to take a trip down to the kitchens.
She looked around at the students who had showed up. Pres had never been to such a huge sleepover party before. When she was little, once her father (after much persuasion from her mother) had allowed her to go to a sleepover with a huge group of other kids that ran in their same social circle, but there hadn't been as many there as there were here by half. She was simply amazed at the atmosphere. It was going to be so much fun.

Hmmm? Why was Daichi looking so down in the dumps? Granted, Kurumi's spirits were crushed too...but nothing made you forget your own problems like trying to comfort others, right? It was worth a try anyway.
Kurumi poured a nice big mug of hot chocolate and knelt over him to offer it to him. "Here you go, Daichi," she said with a small smile.
If Kurumi hadn't heard Selena's greeting...she certainly heard the LOUD clang that came from her bag hitting the ground. Oh...Merlin... "Selena...was that...what I think it was?" she asked, pointing to the bag and hoping that she had something else in there besides her telescope like...a dozen Remembralls?
Tired? Kurumi had been so sure that the aura she had been putting off was anything BUT tired. She needed to wear a better mask. No offense to the Hufflepuff, but Kurumi hadn't even discussed things with Selina, her best friend, so there was no way she was going into details with the girl in front of her. "Me? Just keeping busy with everything," she chirped. "There was a lot to set up for this party on top of everything else." Yep...lots and lots of things on her plate to keep her distracted. "Just, um, be sure not to swallow the stick..." She hadn't already, had she? Alyssa had sort of swallowed her first cookie whole... they were lollipop cookies after all.
Alyssa proudly stuck out her tongue to show the stick lying on it. "Nope I have it here on my tongue,"she told Kurumi as she removed the stick from her tongue. "Well I have to say that, as usual, you did a great job organizing this event. This is definitely a great idea. Hopefully we'll have more of these kinds of slumber parties. It's rare that we get to sleep side by side with a Gryffindor, let alone a Slytherin. I think it's kinda cool." Alyssa told her, reaching out for another cookie.
SPOILER!!: Nate

"Oh wow! Really? It's that dangerous? I live in a pretty safe part of Los Angeles, but it's just 10 miles from the scary part of Los Angeles. But when we're in Salem, my family would go up to the mountains in New Hampshire and go camping. I love sleeping under the stars. You should try it sometime...oh wait, we're going to get to do it tonight."Alyssa laughed when she remembered why they were out here tonight.

Alyssa looked over to see Minerva greeting the Professor. She then started waving at her. "Hey there Minerva. It's good to see you here too. I can't wait for this slumber party to get started. Is Justin coming too? Aaron said that it was too cold for him, so he won't be joining us. His loss, I say."Alyssa laughed.

Maybe Mister Fancy Pants should sit on top of the bag, just in cast anyone tried to STEAL her chocolate and stuff inside.
Well, yes...but that hadn't really been what Kurumi had been going for, but it was still true. Slightly distracted by all the chocolate on Selena's face and in her hands, Kurumi turned her gaze back towards the bag on the floor. "Um, I mean...was your telescope in your bag? It...sort of made a not-so-happy sound just now." Like...that the instrument had jut broken and the lens was now in pieces inside her bag.

"I'm...fine," she said with a smile. It wasn't a lie, not really. She WAS fine. "If you...guys," she said as she nodded to everyone in the general area since there was now a small crowd. "...need anything just let me know. I've organized the sleeping bags over there, so be sure to grab one if you get too cold."

Kurumi smiled and giggled...until she turned bright pink when Alyssa mentioned sleeping side-by-side with people from other houses. She...hadn't thought about that. Chances were that Jonathan wouldn't be coming to the party considering how much of a fan of the great outdoors he was not and how he preferred to sleep in his own bed, but the thought still made her cheeks flush and hair turn pick.
Erm...right...awkward...
Kurumi quickly threw her hood over her head. "Sure is...cold," she said with a very forced smile. Nice recovery Hollingberry, not. "Well, Professor Roslund and Beezus helped, so it wasn't all me." Sure, she had suggested it to the Astronomy professor at the end of the lesson, but she hated to see so many balloons go to waste.

Olivia took a sip of hot chocolate, on her way over to the sleeping bags. Then she heard someone say hello, she turned and looked. "Hi Sky" Olivia smiled back, even though sky had probly heard that pun a billion gagillion times!

There was another Slytherin in the same year who Olivia had yet to meet! "Hello" the girl said as she walked over to sleeping bag area, Olivia had broght her own pillow too, and blanket.
She noticed the professer was there as well "Hi Professer, is there anything else that needs to be done? Although everything did look layed out pretty nicely. Olivia could earn points setting up too, as well as looking for baloons with her telescope.

Jory headed over to the Astronomy Sleepover- dressed in white pajamas and yellow sweater over it and his bag pack in his hand. He was impressed with all the decorations and so.There were quite a few students milling around already.
Jory loved the cold weather. He knew he was going to enjoy this. He found the tent and got inside. It was warm in spite of the cold outside. He decided on a sleeping back near a pot that gave heat. Sitting down, Jory warmed himself up a bit before getting up to get some sandwiches.
"Hello, Professor,'' Jory acknowledged the Professor whom he'd not noticed before. "Great idea you have here.''

Zhenya beamed at Cardigan, her chaser friend. Then she laughed, "No, not a vampire... or though - no, no not a vampire!" she said. "But I do like black and red. Not so much together, but individually yes. My mum hates them though so... I chose them. Rather red and black than bright pink!" she said, seeing pink around. She just didn't like pink on her.

"HEY RAVEN!?" Zhenya yelled, almost jumping on her best friend. She put her bag down, which was only a small backpack. It was charmed though to fit whatever she needed. She had her essentials in there, ready for sleep.

Looking up as Professor Roslund walked over he smiled until he mentioned the quidditch match. Then he winced a little. "Uh, thank ye." he didn't think he had, and really hadn't liked the initiation process when he'd failed to catch the snitch. Being sent flying across the snow on his back hadn't been his idea of fun...
Nodding the smile appeared back on his face "Yeh, indeed I am. Me mum taught me lots about the stars and constellations especially when we were in Egypt with the clear open sky above us."
Maybe Slytherin hadn’t turned out as the winner of the match but Professor Roslund still thought that they had all played well Isaac included. Listening intently to the boy as he spoke about stargazing Edvard beamed "Do you have your telescope with you Isaac? It’s a perfect night for stargazing or some balloon spotting." He added sheepishly. "Go grab a spot next to Ella before the good spots gets taken." He gestured towards the Hufflepuff girl who already had her telescope up and ready.

He was definitely one of her most creative Professors, which was always exciting and fun.
Grinning as he heard Zhenya’s comment he turned to the Slytherin girl "Thanks for the compliment dear. I hope you’re dressed sensibly for the night I don’t want to get Healer Tillstorm on my case later for causing a cold outbreak." Professor Roslund gestured to the tent around "Go enjoy yourself Zhenya but make use of the light if you want to spot something with your telescope tonight."

Ah another party enthusiast! "Good evening Violet. I like your enthusiasm. Did you find any balloons last lesson? It’s a good night tonight for spotting things. If you want to see a particular constellation or maybe a balloon.." Edvard said hinting that she should make use of the light.

The next student to greet him was a covered in pink from head to toe. Flashing her a smile he said "Good evening Cardigan. Thanks for the vote of confidence. Tell me if you still think it’s the best party tomorrow morning when you wake up after a night on the grounds."

Gideon looked around for any familiar faces, however the only one he certainly knew was the professor himself.
Guess he was the first one to arrive. Though hopefully Selina might be interested seeing as she had certainly seemed to have a new-found liking of the subject. "Good Evening Professor," he greeted as he came near the man.
"Good evening Gideon.." Professor Roslund greeted warmly “All set for the sleepover?” The fifth year looked bundled up and warm. "Anything special you’d hope to spot as you stargaze tonight?"

"Good evening Taylor!" Professor Roslund greeted a rather cold looking and visibly shivering Ravenclaw girl. "Go over and warm yourself next to one of the heat pots and maybe drink some tea dear." He ordered her not wanting her to get sick after staying out on the grounds for one night.

"Very thoughtful of you Alyssa, no I’m good. Keep the extra blanket for someone who really needs it." He responded smiling. “Drink as much coca as you want." There was no shortage of it since he had made sure the pot would restock itself.

"Professor Roslund," Kurumi called, giant box of lollipop cookies in her arms. "The sleeping bags are all organized over there in the corner based on color." The prefect had created a full spectrum from darks to lights. "I'll just go set the cookies down at the food table and then let me know if there is anything else that needs to be done."
Professor Roslund was about to set up his telescope and do some of his own stargazing when he heard Kurumi’s distinctive voice behind his back. Turning he smiled "Good job Kurumi. Can you check that there is plenty of food for everyone and also put on some music." Gesturing to wireless stereo to the left of the food section he added in a hushed voice "I’m no good with music and what kids are into these days. Maybe you can choose something nice and soft that doesn’t disturb the buzzing conversation?"

You were supposed to stay up there," Selena sighed, placing the purple pygmy puff on top of her head and unzipping her bag to take out her chocolate. Psht. Who needed SLEEP when they could be eating chocolate?!
Taking a note of the pygmy puff on the Slytherin prefect’s head Professor Roslund called over to Selena. "Good evening Selena. I see you’ve brought along an extra guest. Is your pygmy puff an eager astronomer too?" One pet was in the tent already. Would there be more creatures sticking their heads in to stalk the party?

How are you on this clear, but chilly night?" Lily gave the professor a big grin as she waited for a reply. She thought it would be a very good night for stargazing because the sky was clear.
"Good evening Lily! I’m very good dear. I chose the perfect night for stargazing." He added with a grin. "You go stalk some balloon or stars for that matter before the light disappears on us." Professor Roslund insisted as he remembered that the first year had bumped her head last term.

This would be his first at a sleepover too. Even though being at hogwarts is like one big giant sleepover but with school. And alot of people. So it would be two new things he would be doing tonight.
"Good evening Nate!" Professor Roslund greeted warmly. "Got your telescope with you for some stargazing?"

"I’m pleased. Have fun dear!" Professor Roslund replied before hurrying off to save a candle from igniting a fire in the tent. Kids needed to be watched since most of them didn’t know what their limbs where doing.

"Good evening Jory. Thank you for saying so. It wasn’t entirely my idea. You should thank Kurumi and Beatrice for coming up with the idea in the first place." Professor Roslund said as he gestured towards his two helpers.
Clearing his throat he used his wand to make himself heard as held his little speech. "Good evening everyone, thank you all for coming out and braving the cold with me and my helpers." He glanced briefly over at Beatrice and Kurumi.
"Let’s get the party started! There is plenty of food and drink to go around. Enjoy yourself, talk with someone you’ve never met before and most importantly find some balloons before Peeves come and snatch them all up."
That was his way of telling them to set their telescope up and get balloon spotting. Taking out his own specialized telescope and putting it firmly in the ground he started to gaze at the sky and grounds.

There was a girl who greeted her but Raven didn't know who she was since she didn't have much friends here. Maybe just a stranger who wanted to look nice in her eyes. Raven was not a friendly person as Zhenya.
"Hi." said her short and gave the girl a smile.

"I hope so, Professor." she smiled. She'd already brought an extra-fluffy blanket to cover herself. Oh, she remembered that Professor Roslund had served the food and beverages. She took a hot cocoa to warmth herself. Hmmmm...

Zhenya had to withhold from hugging Professor Roslund. She thought to herself that he was perhaps one of her favourite Professors here, if not her favourite. But she did have an equal fondness towards Professor Bentley. "Hey, Professor, do you think you and Professor Bentley will have another joint lesson? That was SO GOOD! And it was a real highlight from my entire time here!" she said, hoping he would say yes.
Cold? Oh - right! She pulled out a very long, very fluffy green and grey scarf that she had stolen from her brother before she came. He wasn't home so why would he need it? It was so warm! She also pulled out her telescope and showed him that she had it. Then her stomach rumbled!

"Did you bring your telescope?" she asked, taking a bug gulp of her drink, and eating whatever was in her hands. She was so hungry she didn't know exactly what it was, but the point was it smelled nice.
"Hey, let's go set up our stuff," she said, walking towards an area near the food table, but where there was a big enough gap for them to move around without bumping into other peoples set ups.

Beatrice quickly placed on her cozy knit heart slippers, grabbed her telescope from her backpack and dashed out of the tent. She went there after helping the Gryffindor female Prefect and their Astronomy Professor prepare for the Party because she also had to get ready with something that they'd showcase to her fellow Hogwartians later.
"Professor!" she exclaimed upon reaching the spot where the Professor was currently standing after making the formal start of the party. "I'm not late for the Balloon Spotting, am I?" she chuckled a bit as she looked around. That was such a party and there were many students who attended. Wasn't that just something to be delighted about? And the weather that night was also on their side, stars were out brightly and the moon was glimmering happily as if it wanted to join in on the fun. Beezus then saw Kurumi, offering cookies to everyone out there. "Errr--Professor, I'd leave my telescope with you for a while, if that's alright?" And without waiting for any reply, she placed the instrument on the table beside the Professor and hopped to where the Prefect was. As she passed by some crowd, she noticed some familiar faces. "Good evening Isaac!" she greeted the Slytherin Keeper. "Hi Ella..oh, and Lyssie!" her Herbology partners. "Daichi, I knew you won't let this party pass without attending." she joked as she ruffled the hair of the snake. "Hello Prefect Z.." she smiled towards her and her pygmy puff. "Oi. Nate!" Beezus nodded towards the young badger who dueled with her once. "Sky! Raven! Are you guys enjoying the night? " she called out to the two familiar she-snakes. "Minnie, how are you?" she then asked her badger friend. As for the other ones she didn't know, she gave them a nod and smile.
At last, she arrived at where the Prefect was, "Lovely night, eh? Can I get some of that?" she asked, pointing the cute and adorable looking cookies. She took a star-shaped one and took a bite from it. "Oh! Delicious.." It truly was. "D'you need help with giving out the treats?" Beezus asked as she still munched on her cookie.

It's rare that we get to sleep side by side with a Gryffindor, let alone a Slytherin. I think it's kinda cool." Alyssa told her, reaching out for another cookie.
"Oh wow! Really? It's that dangerous? I live in a pretty safe part of Los Angeles, but it's just 10 miles from the scary part of Los Angeles. But when we're in Salem, my family would go up to the mountains in New Hampshire and go camping. I love sleeping under the stars. You should try it sometime...oh wait, we're going to get to do it tonight."Alyssa laughed when she remembered why they were out here tonight.
Alyssa looked over to see Minerva greeting the Professor. She then started waving at her. "Hey there Minerva. It's good to see you here too. I can't wait for this slumber party to get started. Is Justin coming too? Aaron said that it was too cold for him, so he won't be joining us. His loss, I say."Alyssa laughed.
Minerva heard Alyssa "Hey, thanks it sounded fun so why not come." then she thought for a second "I don't know really we never talked about it. Maybe he will show up. Tell Aaron to suck it up." Minerva smiled, she hoped Justin might show up, but if he didn't it wouldn't be a big deal. "So how are you this evening Alyssa?"

Listening intently to the boy as he spoke about stargazing Edvard beamed "Do you have your telescope with you Isaac? It’s a perfect night for stargazing or some balloon spotting." He added sheepishly. "Go grab a spot next to Ella before the good spots gets taken." He gestured towards the Hufflepuff girl who already had her telescope up and ready.
Grinning as he heard Zhenya’s comment he turned to the Slytherin girl "Thanks for the compliment dear. I hope you’re dressed sensibly for the night I don’t want to get Healer Tillstorm on my case later for causing a cold outbreak." Professor Roslund gestured to the tent around "Go enjoy yourself Zhenya but make use of the light if you want to spot something with your telescope tonight."
Ah another party enthusiast! "Good evening Violet. I like your enthusiasm. Did you find any balloons last lesson? It’s a good night tonight for spotting things. If you want to see a particular constellation or maybe a balloon.." Edvard said hinting that she should make use of the light.
The next student to greet him was a covered in pink from head to toe. Flashing her a smile he said "Good evening Cardigan. Thanks for the vote of confidence. Tell me if you still think it’s the best party tomorrow morning when you wake up after a night on the grounds."
"Good evening Gideon.." Professor Roslund greeted warmly “All set for the sleepover?” The fifth year looked bundled up and warm. "Anything special you’d hope to spot as you stargaze tonight?"
"Good evening Taylor!" Professor Roslund greeted a rather cold looking and visibly shivering Ravenclaw girl. "Go over and warm yourself next to one of the heat pots and maybe drink some tea dear." He ordered her not wanting her to get sick after staying out on the grounds for one night.
"Very thoughtful of you Alyssa, no I’m good. Keep the extra blanket for someone who really needs it." He responded smiling. “Drink as much coca as you want." There was no shortage of it since he had made sure the pot would restock itself.
Professor Roslund was about to set up his telescope and do some of his own stargazing when he heard Kurumi’s distinctive voice behind his back. Turning he smiled "Good job Kurumi. Can you check that there is plenty of food for everyone and also put on some music." Gesturing to wireless stereo to the left of the food section he added in a hushed voice "I’m no good with music and what kids are into these days. Maybe you can choose something nice and soft that doesn’t disturb the buzzing conversation?"
Taking a note of the pygmy puff on the Slytherin prefect’s head Professor Roslund called over to Selena. "Good evening Selena. I see you’ve brought along an extra guest. Is your pygmy puff an eager astronomer too?" One pet was in the tent already. Would there be more creatures sticking their heads in to stalk the party?
"Good evening Lily! I’m very good dear. I chose the perfect night for stargazing." He added with a grin. "You go stalk some balloon or stars for that matter before the light disappears on us." Professor Roslund insisted as he remembered that the first year had bumped her head last term.
"Good evening Nate!" Professor Roslund greeted warmly. "Got your telescope with you for some stargazing?"
"Good evening Raven.. Thank you. I hope it won’t get too chilly tonight since I knew it is a risk to hold a party outside in winter time." He said with a giant beam flashing over his face.
"I’m pleased. Have fun dear!" Professor Roslund replied before hurrying off to save a candle from igniting a fire in the tent. Kids needed to be watched since most of them didn’t know what their limbs where doing.
Putting out the light and giving a boy a short lecture he turned to be eye to eye with Minvera. "Good evening Minerva. I’m good a little distracted but good. How are you, excited to sleep outside?"
Professor Roslund turned right to greet Olivia. "Good evening Olivia." He thought for a moment and then responded as he got an idea. #When we go to bed later tonight you can be in charge of making sure that everyone gets a sleeping bag. Think you can do that?"
"Good evening Jory. Thank you for saying so. It wasn’t entirely my idea. You should thank Kurumi and Beatrice for coming up with the idea in the first place." Professor Roslund said as he gestured towards his two helpers.
Clearing his throat he used his wand to make himself heard as held his little speech. "Good evening everyone, thank you all for coming out and braving the cold with me and my helpers." He glanced briefly over at Beatrice and Kurumi.
"Let’s get the party started! There is plenty of food and drink to go around. Enjoy yourself, talk with someone you’ve never met before and most importantly find some balloons before Peeves come and snatch them all up."
That was his way of telling them to set their telescope up and get balloon spotting. Taking out his own specialized telescope and putting it firmly in the ground he started to gaze at the sky and grounds.
Minerva smiled "Yes I am excited to be sleeping outside I have never done it before." she then turned to get her telescope ready to start looking for some balloons. Once her telescope was ready she decided to point it over to the gardens and look around. She had fun looking for the balloons in class and the excitement had come back this time as well. It didn't take long for her to find her first balloon she smiled to herself.

Making his way from said hut that he liked so much, it was amazing how he could see EVERYTHING from it, Waylon didn't bother to take notice of who else was in the garden, he stopped right in front of the giraffe the girl was..riding.
Not weird at all.
He tilted his head back some, so he could see her, and his finger went up to point at her. "You! What do you think you are doing up there?" Maybe he should put a sign somewhere.
A sign that said not to ride the giraffe. His neck was hurting from having to look up.
She heard other students eating which made her stomach make noises. So Minerva decided to go and get some refreshments before returning to her telescope. When she turned she heard a familiar voice.
Beezus:
SPOILER!!:
Beatrice quickly placed on her cozy knit heart slippers, grabbed her telescope from her backpack and dashed out of the tent. She went there after helping the Gryffindor female Prefect and their Astronomy Professor prepare for the Party because she also had to get ready with something that they'd showcase to her fellow Hogwartians later.
"Professor!" she exclaimed upon reaching the spot where the Professor was currently standing after making the formal start of the party. "I'm not late for the Balloon Spotting, am I?" she chuckled a bit as she looked around. That was such a party and there were many students who attended. Wasn't that just something to be delighted about? And the weather that night was also on their side, stars were out brightly and the moon was glimmering happily as if it wanted to join in on the fun. Beezus then saw Kurumi, offering cookies to everyone out there. "Errr--Professor, I'd leave my telescope with you for a while, if that's alright?" And without waiting for any reply, she placed the instrument on the table beside the Professor and hopped to where the Prefect was. As she passed by some crowd, she noticed some familiar faces.

Minerva smiled "Hey Beatrice I haven't seen you in awhile. How are you?" Minerva reached the table and put some chips and cookies on her plate. Grabbing something warm to drink she went back to where her telescope was and sat down wrapped in her blanket she began to munch on her snacks.

As the professor turned to greet a few more students, Silvia looked around and spotted one of her friends coming in. She walked over to the refreshments table to grab herself some hot cocoa and then made her way over to her friend.
"Hi Alex," she said. "This is very exciting isn't it? A night out on the grounds and beneath the wonderful stars." Silvia loved stars. "I only wish the weather was a little warmer....mmmm, this cocoa is really good," she said after taking a sip.
Alex was feeling a little reluctant to approach the other partygoers and strike up a conversation. They all seemed to be broken up into little groups. With relief, she saw her friend approaching. "Hi Silvia", she said. "This party is great. I'm just glad to see a familiar face. Have you spotted any balloons yet?", she asked.
Can't quote on phone... for Kurumi, Beezus and for anyone who wants to join him
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Hearing a loud clattering sound, Daichi snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the bag that Pygmy Girl had dropped on the floor. He shook his head and opened his own bag, grabbing the duck feet he had worn in Astronomy class. Putting on the fuzzy duck feet, Daichi then looked back at the night sky. His mind when back to his little trip to the forbidden forest and he wondered if it had been true what his friends had told him....
He sighed again and cursed himself for being so down. It was not like him but his experience earlier had made him thinking. Daichi jumped a little when he saw a cup of hot chocolate in front of him. Looking up, he saw Kurumi standing before him and he took the hot chocolate in his hands. "Thanks" he smiled although the smile couldn't been seen in his eyes. He looked back at the sky without drinking from his favorite drink.... "Kurumi? Can i ask..." he sighed and shook his head. "ah, no nevermind" he didn't want to keep her to listen since she was busy enough at the moment.
He was about to stand up and grab a fruitbowl from one the tables the Professor had set up when his hair was being ruffled. Honestly! What was with people ruffling his hair? First Jonathan, Eris and Aurora. Now Beezus and even Professor Williamson had ruffled his hair when he had visited him. He tried to style his hair back as he laughed at Beezus statement. "of course i wouldn't want to miss this" he said and now took a sip from his hot chocolate that was surprisingly still hot.
Daichi.listened to Professor Roslund and at the words he made a mental note to enjoy the night so he got his own telescope from his bag, intending to join the balloon searching thingy.
Alyssa proudly stuck out her tongue to show the stick lying on it. "Nope I have it here on my tongue,"she told Kurumi as she removed the stick from her tongue. "Well I have to say that, as usual, you did a great job organizing this event. This is definitely a great idea. Hopefully we'll have more of these kinds of slumber parties. It's rare that we get to sleep side by side with a Gryffindor, let alone a Slytherin. I think it's kinda cool." Alyssa told her, reaching out for another cookie.
"Oh wow! Really? It's that dangerous? I live in a pretty safe part of Los Angeles, but it's just 10 miles from the scary part of Los Angeles.

Is Justin coming too? Aaron said that it was too cold for him, so he won't be joining us. His loss, I say."Alyssa laughed.
"Yeh it's pretty dangerous around my house. And when you have to take care of a chimeara, don't even get me started with that. Oh and look over a giant labrynth full of stuff you still don't know about that's even worse. On top of that we live a one mile south of knockturn alley.That's my normal home life. How is it like over in America?"

Kurumi nodded. Music...that was...almost a sensitive subject for the Gryffindor considering that the piano had been something forced upon her by... Kurumi stopped herself. She was not going to think about that right now. The whole organizing and being at the party was a blessing in disguise as it provided her with a distraction. Nope, she would just be avoiding anything piano related. "Sure thing, professor," Kurumi chirped, her expression remaining unchanged as she headed off to check out the music selection.
He said he had wanted something soft...but anything too soft and people would just start falling asleep on the spot, and that would make the whole event pointless. "Aha...perfect," she nodded as she tapped the stereo with her wand to turn it on. Immediately, some music began to play. Nodding, Kurumi then made her way back over to the food table, rearranging a few things so that they were more accessible for people to grab, and then continue to walk around a bit.
Mingling with people was good. Made things seem normal.

Kurumi spun around when she heard a voice. Truth be told, it had taken her a bit off guard as she had been looking up at the stares without the aid of her telescope and thinking...well...about nothing in particular. "Beezus, hey," she smiled. "Aren't you cold?" Kurumi couldn't imagine wearing a t-shirt only in January. She would really hate for the Ravenclaw to catch a cold because then Kurumi would sort of have to avoid her so that she didn't get sick too. Kurumi then looked at the table. "I'm not really handing anything out, just setting the box down," she replied. Although...handing things out would keep her busy...tempting...very tempting.
Kurumi glanced around the area again at everyone looking through their telescopes and enjoying themselves. "Almost feels like we all should be telling ghost stories, doesn't it," she laughed nervously. Kurumi hated ghost stories...she almost always got nightmares from them. "You know, there is a story that Hogwarts is cursed by two spirits that used to be lovers. They return to the school every thousand years seeking revenge..." Which would make it...this year. Oops.

She glanced at Daichi. "You'll protect me from any vengeful spirits, right?" she winked. "At least when Jonathan isn't around." She giggled softly and decided to pour herself a cup of hot chocolate as well before taking a seat next to Daichi.
Yeah, she had seen those eyes Mr. Daichi Duck-a-lot. His lips said one thing, but eyes never lie. "What did you want to ask me?" she asked, sipping on her hot drink slowly.

"Oi. Oi.." she chuckled. "You just asked me the same question I asked you Minnie." Well..the girl really did. "I'm doing good. As always." she gave her a warm smile. She still doesn't approve of young students being in a relationship such as Minnie yet the girl was a good friend of hers so she was much of an exception.
"You turn to answer my question. How are you? Are you and William still together?"

"I'd have to agree with that." Of course, of course yes. No one would want to miss such a festivity. It only happened once in a while. She grinned as he styled his hair from her ruffling. "Heeeyyy..just let it be." she said, pointing to his head. "It's much nice to look at when its all untidy."

Oh hi Kurumi! Beezus gave her a wide smile. Something seemed a bit odd about the Prefect though, she wasn't her usual cheery self. But she quickly shoved the idea when she smiled at her. Maybe the change was a figment of her cookie-invaded imagination? "Me? Cold? Well..not really. At least not yet." But if ever she did get cold, her sweater was back at her backpack inside the tent. All she needed to do was get it. Ehhhh? She was not handing out the treats? Her bad for not seeing clearly what she was doing then. "Then I'll just hand out the treats," she offered and grabbed a tray and with the use of a tissue took some cookies from the boxes.
She was about to hand out the cookies when suddenly.. GHOST STORIES?!
"I--errr.." Okay, so she was kinda scared of those kind of things. And because of that, her supposed to be handing out of treats to her fellow schoolmates resulted in her taking a large cloth from somewhere, settled it on the grassy ground, sat down on it and faced Kurumi as she began her story-telling. And it started...EEEEEPPPPPP! Two ghosts that used to be lovers and returns every thousand years. "T-thaat..can't be true.." she mumbled nervously. "And if it was, then the ghosts shouldn't be that scary right?" Considering, they had their own House Ghosts and they're not that scary at all.

Kurumi laughed. "You must have a higher tolerance for the cold than me." True story. Kurumi did pretty terrible with the cold and her brothers were always making fun of her for it. Once her mother had knit her a big hat to keep her warm on the way to school...Kurumi froze all thoughts there and refused to allow herself to think about that subject any further. "Go right ahead. I don't mind at all. Professor Roslund asked me to take care of music..."
o______________O
That look on Beezus' face, that eager one that wanted her to go on with the story was...erm...going to have to wait because Kurumi didn't fancy giving herself nightmares right now. "I....um...erm...just a rumor..." she mumbled. "But...um...not all ghosts are nice you know..." She was digging herself deeper and deeper into a hole right now. "Your guess for why they want revenge is as good as mine. Maybe some foul play was involved in the building of the school...who knows." So...Beezus could, you know, go and converse with some of her fellow Ravenclaws in the common room later or something...just not right now. Kurumi was already regretting bring it up.

Wasn't that just something to be delighted about? And the weather that night was also on their side, stars were out brightly and the moon was glimmering happily as if it wanted to join in on the fun. Beezus then saw Kurumi, offering cookies to everyone out there. "Errr--Professor, I'd leave my telescope with you for a while, if that's alright?" And without waiting for any reply, she placed the instrument on the table beside the Professor and hopped to where the Prefect was. As she passed by some crowd, she noticed some familiar faces. "Good evening Isaac!" she greeted the Slytherin Keeper. "Hi Ella..oh, and Lyssie!" her Herbology partners. "Daichi, I knew you won't let this party pass without attending." she joked as she ruffled the hair of the snake. "Hello Prefect Z.." she smiled towards her and her pygmy puff. "Oi. Nate!" Beezus nodded towards the young badger who dueled with her once. "Sky! Raven! Are you guys enjoying the night? " she called out to the two familiar she-snakes. "Minnie, how are you?" she then asked her badger friend. As for the other ones she didn't know, she gave them a nod and smile.
At last, she arrived at where the Prefect was, "Lovely night, eh? Can I get some of that?" she asked, pointing the cute and adorable looking cookies. She took a star-shaped one and took a bite from it. "Oh! Delicious.." It truly was. "D'you need help with giving out the treats?" Beezus asked as she still munched on her cookie.
Nate heard a familiar voice. He looked over and saw it was one of the people he dueled with during the fandango. He said "Hi." Nate was then staring into his telescope he wanted to find a balloon. He searched every where. He couldn't find one For now at least. He was determined to find at least 5 balloons before the night ends.

Ella saw Minnie enter the tent and smiled. "Hey Minnie!" she called, waving at her fellow hufflepuff.

Ella looked at Cardigan with wide eyes. Wait, she hadn't even had any candy yet? That was crazy considering how hyper she already was. Oh well, I guess that's what parties did to people. She laughed at Cardigan's facial expression. "Oh okay!"
SPOILER!!: Logan

Ella nodded at Logan, smiling. She then turned her attention to the Professor who was speaking to the entire group now. She was excited to get started and couldn't help but bounce a bit as he spoke.
SPOILER!!: Professor

"Let’s get the party started! There is plenty of food and drink to go around. Enjoy yourself, talk with someone you’ve never met before and most importantly find some balloons before Peeves come and snatch them all up."
That was his way of telling them to set their telescope up and get balloon spotting. Taking out his own specialized telescope and putting it firmly in the ground he started to gaze at the sky and grounds.
Ella smiled, itching to go set up her telescope. She looked at the people she was standing with, giving them a *well, what are we waiting for?* look. When no one moved, she smiled. "Well, I'm going to go set up my telescope. Anyone want to join me?"
SPOILER!!: Beezus

As Ella headed towards her telescope she heard a familiar voice. Where did she know that voice from? Oh right, it was Beatrice! Her group member from Herbology. She smiled and waved in her direction. "Hi Beatrice! Nice night, huh?"
Jezzabelle pulled out her telescope and set it up for balloon spotting. She was in some comfortable sweatpants and a long sleeve thermal shirt. Her hooded jacket was still in her bag and her slippers kept her toes warm. If anything she'd survive a night of cold. She smiled and she looked into the telescope but noticed nothing.
A small chill danced over her arms and she decided it would be best to dress in her jacket now. Grabbing it she smiled at the people around her. "I love sleepovers."

After having set up her telescope, Ella looked through it, in search of a balloon. She spotted her first in the Topiary Garden. "Found one!" She called out, happily.

Jack was Willy's favorite new friend, his adorable cruppy that he had adopted at the end of summer and trained up already. The pup was so well behaved that most days, Will didn't even keep him on a leash as they roamed about in the mornings. It wasn't like there were going to be any students up this ear---
"YIP YIP!" the little dog barked excitedly, running off into the topiary gardens as he apparently picked up some scent. Will shrugged it off and didn't bother chasing after him, choosing instead to tilt his head at a garden... sculpture...? that seemed to be a giraffe made of leaves eating... more leaves.... Odd choice, Waylon, odd choice. But that was his Hufflepuff friend for ya.
Jack, meanwhile, busied himself with sniffing all around the shoes of a HUMAN!BOY who was patting a fake horse. Silly boy, didn't he know the horse was FAKE?!
It was cold. Selina knew that the party was going to be taking place because Kurumi had been going on about it for a few weeks, but honestly when Selina had fallen asleep that night she had completely forgotten about the party. The only reason why she was making her way down to the party now was because she had woken up in the middle of the night with a cookie on her night stand with a note from Kurumi saying Hey sleepyhead. When you wake up come down to the party.. Thank Merlin for Kurumi. She always kept the redhead on task. Without her... Well Selina would still be sleeping.
She walked into the party pulling up her socks as she entered. She was a tad cold but only because she had, well, worn shorts. But hey she was in a rush. She entered and said, "Sorry I'm late... did someone say ghost stories?"
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
Small Telescope laying on his lap, Daichi was about to stand up when Kurumi sat down beside him. It was rude to walk away now and the Slytherin slapped his forehead mentally for being so stupid. Of course she would notice something was wrong.
He had missed Kurumi's and Beezus's conversation about ghost stories when he had been lost in thought , so when Kurumi asked if he could protect her from vengeful spirits he gave a a O_______o look. "There are vengeful spirits in the castle?" he asked, honestly believing what she was telling and his expression was a mixture of fear and fascinated curiousity."Cool!" The boy liked horror stories though most of the time after someone was done telling, he would be awake for a few hours....
Daichi rolled his eyes as Beezus told him she liked his hair untidy. It seemed like most people liked it untidy and this made him think if he should never comb or style it anymore. Turning back to Kurumi, he felt his cheeks blushing as she asked what he wanted to say. Looking down at his lap, he placed the telescope next to him and bit his lip. "I...i don't really want to ruin the fun.." he finally mumbled after a moment of silence. "But.. you know alot and i was wondering if..if..you could help answer a question?"
Yes, it was true he could look it up in one of the text books , but somehow he was nervous to look it up. And he knew Kurumi was smart... atleast her answers in class were always so detailed that it had left Daichi speechless sometimes as he listened. Looking up at the sky, he kept watching as he finally asked what had been on his mind since a few days. "Is..is it true that..that uhm... some people can see thestrals and some not?" there, he had asked but never made eye contact with the Prefect for he felt embarrassed. "Hades and Jezz told me but...i thought they were kidding and pretended not to..you know... see the creature." He blushed and quickly tried to change the subject and said...
"You have weird music taste" and laughed his high pitched laugh to cover up his real feelings right now.
