"What'd you guys do in that class?" His class had consisted of learning. Basically, cookies, napes and playing duck duck goose. Yeah, real productive. "As long as its not a bad different way." He said happily. Anything bad, was well, bad and not good.

Aww, was she jealous of how people remembered his name? "Well, we'll come up with some fun way to come up with your name. I promise. I hope they like the game-its a fun game." But it usually involved a lot of running. He wasn't a runner. Tag, as some people knew, was a jumper. Much different.

Now, he wasn't sure if a duck could be a pet but there could be alternatives. "Maybe you can adopt one-like in a zoo or something-and they can take of it there and you just go visit it. Yeah?" Tag asked her.

Angelina laughed and nodded, "Oh I did..." She then zoned out thinking. Giving up she looked back at Sophie and said, "Yes, Spain was amazing."

Angelina listened while Sophie told her about where she went. Smiling she said, "Sounds so fun! I've never been to Canada." SHe wondered what it was like there. Was it cold there like here, they are around the same height as England. Angelina smiled wide and said, "I live down in London. What about you?" She hoped Sophie lived somewhat close.

Looking at the ducks with Sophie she started to laugh, "Yeah they are. I'm more into little duck not the older ones. THey seem weird." She looked around the pond for a 'do not feed sign'. So far she didn't see any. Nodding, Angelina looked at Sophie and said, "I think you can."

Where in Merlin's name was all that quacking coming from?! Ducks, presumably. But at a school? That was just ridiculous. This was supposed to be a school, not a zoo. Though, maybe it was actually a zoo to begin with. It sure seemed like one, taking a look at all the mental students that attended this school. Not including Milton who was at Hogwarts against his will.

Oh, look. There it was. A duck pond. Milton came to it and stopped several feet away from the water's edge. It smelled like... pond water. And he didn't like it. He didn't like a lot of things, actually.

The giggle.

It was really an Indy thing to giggle wasn't it? Or maybe it wasn't but Daichi was just simply paying attention to her giggles. It was cute he had to admit..WAIT WHAT?!

Eww..eww Daichi! she's a friend and where in merlin's beard do those thoughts come from?!

Having a O__o expression as Indy sat down beside him, he faked a cough. He watched between the two girls as they said hi to each other and he took this time to look at the duck pond itself. Even if he did not like ducks, he would have thought the place was beautiful. "Yeah, me too" he smiled genuinely at her before looking back at Floppy with a big grin.

"Want a piece?" he asked after pulling out a half melted chocolate bar out of his pocket.

Of course Mr.Duckles was EPIC. No doubt about that cause he always knew that, but hearing this from another person was epic it self. He grinned but then his grin fell and he looked confused. What on earth is a club? could he eat it? oooh wait, it was a party. Well Daichi knew birthday parties...did that count?

"ehm...i-i don't know what a french club is..." ok this was awkward! Better give her a a piece of chocolate too. "Here" he said as he broke off another piece of chocolate bar.

Ameliah bounced a little. "It's a muggle thing Bella showed me. It's like a huge party house, except you don't really know anyone there. Like a public party." Yea. That covered it....

CHOCOLATE!!!

She accepted the chocolate happily. "Thanks!! I don't care what Lafay said, chocolate is AWESOME!"

Ronnie found herself returning to the Duck Pond yet again. She really liked it, that Duck Pond. Especially the duckies in it. They were all so cute, and she wanted to take all fifteen home with her. Buuut, she probably wasn't allowed to do that. No duckies for Ronnie.

Ronnie made her way to the spot she normally always went to. HER spot. RONNIE'S spot. No body elses. It was all hers! Mwa hahaahaa!
As Ronnie sat, she noticed a boy standing by himself a bit ways away from the duck pond. What was he doing all the way other there? All the duckies were right here!

Feeling that he might need some company, she stood up and made her way over to him. "Hello!" she said. "I'm Ronnie! What's your name?"

He was coughing. Was he getting sick? That was not good at all. He couldn't get sick. They'd only just started school. "Are you okay...?" She mused, hoping that Daichi would get that she was referring to fact that he had just cough. "I hope you're not getting a cold..." Because then they couldn't hang out. And that would make Indy sad. She liked hanging out with Daichi. He was cool. And made her smile. That was a good quality for a friend. All of her friends made her smile.

"I bet you are...." Indy giggled with a bigg smile. She loved all the areas of the ground though, and would be spending lots of her time out here. "I'm thinking of coming out here to study and stuff....it's so peaceful." And she got that she sounded so much like a nerd. But she liked reading. "It's pretty. too." It was just a very good area in general.

Ooh. He was offering her chocolate. "Yum..." She smiled. Indy loved chocolate so much. "Yes please." He was a good friend. Sharing his chocolate with her.

Oh. Yeah. The other girl. "So...." Hmm. Wait what was her name again. "What year are you in..." Amy? No. Amie. No. Ameli...oh that was it "Ameliah"

"You're welcome! I'm a proud Hufflepuff, so every new addition to our family is great!" Well, there probably were some students who weren't happy with their placement, but she didn't appear to be one of them. And good thing, too. "But hey, at least yellow doesn't clash with your hair nearly as bad as it does with mine!" He pointed unnecessarily to his flaming red locks. WHY am I pointing out how ridiculous I look??? To cover it, he hastily began speaking again. "I'm glad you're enjoying it. It must be hard to come into a new place for your last year, not really knowing anyone or how things are done around here." Yes, he could be sensitive. So what?

Every time Kate moved her head, Keefer was momentarily distracted by the fascinating way the sun made it look like silver. He caught himself staring looking again and forced his gaze back to her face.

"I will? Yes, I suppose I will. It will be good to have some fresh blood trying out." He didn't want to only see his old team returning and everyone else getting scared off. After all, there could be some hidden talent lurking behind someone's robes. It was his job to spot it under the surface. "I bet you're fantastic," he said, complimenting her without any real basis for doing so. "If nothing else, you hair would distract the other team."

That had slipped out before he realized what he was saying. "No! That didn't.. I was only... Shoot!" he sighed, lifting his gaze to the sky. "You make me get my words all jumbled up!" he complained, though not without some merriment behind his eyes. He composed his thoughts and brought his head back to a normal level. "I only meant that there's something about your hair... it tends to reflect the light back at you and shine more than with most girls." He suddenly realized how vulnerable he was and retreated within himself. "Anyways, I'm excited to see what happens this term, since we won the Cup last term, and all.." LAME.

He felt a shock wave course through his body as she took some bread. Fortunately, she had become preoccupied momentarily with the ducks. The color in his cheeks was rising, though it could have been due to the bright September sun. "Er, my favorite place?" he repeated, wondering why that felt like such a threatening question. And she already took the pitch and the stands..? His brain wasn't working, he was at a loss. He blurted out the first thing that came to mind. "The kitchens!" he said a bit too loudly. Hopefully she would interpret it as enthusiasm. "I, uh.. I love those elves, you know?" he plowed on gallantly. "There's this little one, Toddles. Just born last year. He was at the Feast." Although, he hadn't seen her there. So maybe she didn't know.

Theo starrrrrrrrred. It was true. Maybe he should put on a little show and pass out for dramatic effect. If she continued with her slight sarcasm, he so would. And THEN she'd feel bad. MUAHAHAHA.

"YES, why do you sound so shocked?" This girl was MEAN for a Hufflepuff. He could feel his fake-unconsciousness coming.

He'd give her one more chance.

Theodore grabbed the packet, pulled out the card, then tossed the rubbish on the floor. Such a rebel, you see. fDSJfdsfdsfsdf. "Salazar Slytherin. For the billionth time." Theodore was very upset by this.

"Do you want it?"

She walked down to the duck pond and sat in a place away from other people and looked into the pond quietly. She always loved coming down to the duck pond, it was so peaceful and wonderful

Ameliah smiled. "Second, though I feel like I should be graduated!"

Well, ducks weren't very exciting, were they? Nope. Milton was just about to leave when a girl approached him looking FAR too happy. Oh dear. What was with all these students? They all seemed so cheerful. ALL the time. And he didn't mind happiness, really. But it sometimes got a little annoying.

Milton stared at her for a second. "Wilson," he lied. Why? He had no idea. He just wasn't feeling friendly towards happy people at the moment.

Sophie was starting to think she should do something like her parents did after they graduated at Hogwarts. They traveled the world studying! Well, maybe she could find something to study too and travel around the world. That would be fun!

"I had never been to Canada either! It's really green!" Well, at least Carigan's house was in the middle of the woods and it had plants ALL OVER! That made Sophie come to the conclusion that the whole country was like that. "I live in Newcastle!" Another green place. Her mum was the one who had chosen to live there, obviously.

Any kind of ducks seemed weird in Sophie's opinion. In a funny way, of course. Not that she would want one as a pet or anything. Speaking of pets... "Do you have a pet, Angelina?"

She looked around to find something they could feed the ducks. Not grass, of course! But there wasn't anything else there. No Chocolate Frogs in her bag either. "Do you have anything we can feed them?"

"Wilson." Ronnie repeated. "Okay, nice to meet you, Wilson!" she said. She rocked on her heels, thinking of something to say. "So, what year are ya in?" she asked.

Text Cut: Keefer XD

That's right! Houses were like families. Keeping that in mind, then she was glad she'd ended up in the yellow one, they had some very nice people in there, starting with Keefer. It was a shame, though, that West went to the green one, but at least they were closer to them than up there in one of the towers. She smiled, and listened as he spoke about...wow, really? 'Nearly as bad'? Thanks for pointing out that yellow wasn't her color, Captain, but she had to agree with him, after all, she'd thought about that herself. "I agree," she finally said, and couldn't help but divert her gaze from his eyes to his hair. So yellow suited her more than it suited him? Yeah, obviously.

As far as how hard this could turn out to be for her..., "I miss it," all of it, "But this place isn't half bad," her smile wasn't as wide as before, thanks to Keefer mentioning this, but she was one who tended to adapt well to changes. And this was only for a few months, if she wanted to be back in Sweden once school was done, then she definitely could.

For now...her expression turn to one of amusement. Yes, Captain, you will see her name because she signed up. "It always is," fresh blood, always good, another nod came to her head...and then...

...she froze.

Er, well, yes, she was pretty good but...hearing him say that caught her off guard, to say the least, even more so when he mentioned her hair being a distraction? Blink. She didn't know what to think of it, or what did he mean, so her mouth opened up slightly to ask...questions that were never asked, since now he was...going to explain? Hopefully? She didn't look concerned at all, she still looked amused by his reaction, especially the part in which he said she was the cause of it.

Kate wanted to let him know that it was okay, before he actually said something he'll regret, but she decided on giving him time to gather his thoughts. Her eyes couldn't leave him, though.

Alright. She knew that. She had her father's hair. Plus, West did mention her hair was pretty. THAT is the kind of thing you mention to girls. "I think that's a compliment? That I'm not like most girls?" yes, that's all she said about Keefer's jumbled up speech. "I hope you win it again this year," her tone and expression were kept sweet, even if she wasn't oblivious to the topic change Keefer had brought up, so she went along with it.

Also, the kitchens was his favorite place? Besides the Pitch, for sure. She smiled at this, "We should go some time, I haven't been there yet," when it was cold enough for hot chocolate, of course, not right now in the middle of the day. "Oh, yes, I saw," the little one going from table to table? Probably looking for fun? "And you only have house elves in there?" they had Wizards and Witches focused on cooking back in Sweden, though.

Ella walked down to the duck pond with a book in her hands, eager to visit the spot. It was one of her favorite places at Hogwarts and she felt at ease there. Walking over to the rocky ledge of the water, Ella removed her shoes and rolled up her pant legs, sticking her feet in the water. It wasn't exactly warm but Ella still had a smile on her face, it was good to be back. Opening her book, Ella began to read, letting the sun shine down on her face. What a beautiful day.

Minerva sat down on the grass and let bouncers down. "No running off do you hear me." she smiled.

She got up from where she was and ran over to Minnie and ran beside her,"Hello Minnie!" She said cheerfully,

Minerva smiled "Hey Butterfly, how are you? Did you like your classes today?"

Harvey walked out to the duck pond to see the ducks when he saw her... Minnie..he walked upto her and sat down next to her "Hey Mins.. how are you? Hey Bouncers.. how are you too?" he smiled as he greeted them both.. before someone else ran over to them "Hey Butterfly... how are you?" he asked still smiling

She giggled,"I missed two of the classes, only when to the divi- whatever it's called. I'm hyper, how are you?" SHe had been eating chocolate frogs so she was really wired today.

Minerva smiled "Hello Harvs, how are you?" she then turned back to Butterfly "Well you will make them up. Can I have a frog?" she put her hand on the ground and bouncers began to jump over it.

"Maybe, but all the classes were at one tim." She hand an @.@ face.,"Here you go." She handed her a chocolate frog.

Minerva smiled "Thank you. So what else have you been doing today?"

Harvey chuckled when he saw Butterfly "I can see that you are hyper today.. I am good." he asked as he turned to Minnie "I am good Mins.. how about you?" he asked as she asked for a frog.. she seemed different someohow as Butterfly gave a chocolate frog and talked about classes.. uh oh Minnie and Butterfly with him were not a good combination.. he thought as he remembered their fits of laughter at the feast.. he heard Minnie thank Butterfly for the frog and ask her what she had been upto.. uh oh here we go .. thought Harvey
