Hogwarts Pep Rally
When Thursday, 27 September @ 8pm EST
to
Sunday, 30 September @ 11:59pm EST
Where Hogwarts Stadium
Electricity filled the air as the gates to Hogwarts Stadium magically opened themselves to the staff and students of the school. Set against the backdrop of Hogwarts Castle, the stadium seemed to have a life of its own - the exquisite tapestries that covered the stadium's skeleton shone brightly in the autumn sun. The blues, bronzes, crimson, gold, black, emerald and silver shades appeared brighter than usual. A light breeze wafted through the stadium, ruffling the tapestries and causing an illusion of the embroidered mascots coming to life.
Come in and have a seat in the sections that are decorated with your Hogwarts house colors. Unfurl your banners and get ready for the fun to begin!
Pep rallies. One of the events where Beatrice Castell would put basically her all. Next to Quidditch and classes, it's where she could show her pride for her House.
And that is why she was in a cheerleading costume as she she made her way into the stadium, a bunch of balloons in one hand and a megaphone on the other. Sending excuses, smiles and nods to other Houses as she passed, she finally got to where her fellow eagles were assembled. CHESIRE GRIN TO EVERYONE. Then she handed out a balloon to each that the number she brought with her could accommodate. Oh, and hello there fluffy dragon! "I didn't Ravenclaws were raising a dragon," Beezus said with a giggle as she eyed the mascot.
They were so ready to roll. Bringing the megaphone to her lips, the Chaser began, "Ravenclaws, are you reeeeeaaaaaaaaaaadddyyyyyyyyyy?!" LET US HEAR YOU EAGLES! Oh of course they were. They've been cheering way before she arrived. Yeah, they were just that awesome.
She wanted to add more to the noise they were making, so, "WE'VE GOT THE RHYTHM,
WE'VE GOT THE BEAT,
COME ON RAVENCLAWS,
TURN UP THE HEAT...
AND LET'S DEFEAT!"

The funny thing about an anonymous costume was that it allowed you to be different. Kinda...not you. And that is why, for the first time in a while, Spike found himself talking to her.
"In secret," Spike said with a nod. "I'm a very special Ravenclaw dragon." A particularly huggable one, in fact. "Brought out for special occasions."

Seeing Beezus, she waved and smiled. Balloons! She should have thought of balloons! That was another thing she would have to remember for next time.
Oh yeah, more cheering.

Blue skipped down through the stands to all her AWESOME and MOST FAVOURITE PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. She BEAMed at them all, yes, including the dragon, despite her fear. Gah. They were all older then her. Where were all the ickle eagles at?! Seriously. But she skipped over to Beezus, anyway, and smiled at her cheerleader outfit.
"You look really pretty!"
BEAM BEAM BEAM.
Oh. They were cheering. Right. She hadn't exactly come up with one so...
"GOOOO RAVENCLAAAAAAW."
That'd do.

Nigel wondered why there were no cheerleaders for Quidditch. It was a question to ask Professor Vinidictus whenever he had time.
"Nice outfits Blue and Beezus" Nigel said putting some more blue pain on his face. He was loving all the blue and bronze.
Now it was time for a megaphone. Nigel brought his megaphone from under his robes and shouted into
YEAH CLAWS. GO RAVENCLAW!!!!

"Ha! I don't dress up. For anything. Except for Halloween..." but even then Elliot didn't like dressing up in obnoxious costumes or anything...She would have grabbed his hand, or something, but some of her fellow claws were chanting really...awesome chants.
Elliot admired their creativity...
SPOILER!!: Bee and Lana
SHe couldn't help but grin....at Lana(was that her name? Stupid Laura's twin?!) and Beezus...because those were really cool cheers. She decided she might as well join in...you know, show those snakes that hey, Ravenclaws can dominate, too. Because Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors aren't much competition, are they? (No offense, Maxwell. )
"WE'VE GOT THE RHYTHM,
WE'VE GOT THE BEAT,
COME ON RAVENCLAWS,
TURN UP THE HEAT...
AND LET'S DEFEAT!" she cheered along with Beezus...That was kind of fun. Though she wasn't nearly as loud....
And then she cheered along with Lana, because her cheer was awesome, tooooo!
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles
Do what we say
And get out the way"
She kind of swayed to the beat...there was no way she was jumping around or anything..nuh uuuuh!
It was just like her second year.. or third. Louisa was more nostalgic about this than excited for cheering for a sport she doesn't really like. BUT the fact that the whole school has Quidditch addiction, and her house has probably the most fierce team (despite the roaring of the Gryffindors in the stadium), and they deserved to be cheered for. Besides, her co-Prefect was a Quidditch enthusiast so no harm in supporting him with this...
... but she never really thought there will come the time where she would see him like that. Louisa blinked, her mouth forming a big O as she stared at the boy from where she stood down the stadium. Laughing and shaking her head, she jogged up to where Spikey and the others gathered. The Head Girl just dressed in blue and had two eagles drawn on each of her cheeks. She did have ideas of trying to conjure an eagle from her wand but that was just a thought so far. Not sure if professor Vee would approve of this or not. But DRAGON costume? She was grinning from ear to ear when she caught up to the group. "Heeey! Nice costume, buddy." she playfully punched Spike on the arm. "Nice tail, too." Louisa poked it, chuckling.
When the other younger 'claws started cheering suddenly, her attention was drawn over to them and instantly she joined,
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles
Do what we say
And get out the way!!"
She turned around to them, gave them the thumps up and started again...
maybe they all should sit as a group and do the wave? Or flap their hands like an almighty eagle?
Yeah! Elliot smiled..."Yeah! I'm not the best at Potions either, Max, don't worry..." well...she was decent. Just not naturally talented at it..."It could be...if we tried." But trying took sooooo much energy, didn't it?
"Ha! I don't dress up. For anything. Except for Halloween..." but even then Elliot didn't like dressing up in obnoxious costumes or anything...She would have grabbed his hand, or something, but some of her fellow claws were chanting really...awesome chants.

Maxwell was regretting coming to the pep rally, he was utterly bored. What was the point of this? To see who could yell the loudest? which house was the most annoying? He'd found himself bored lately with things that normally held his interest.
"Well, we can help each other with potions." He said smiling. He was happy to be around Elliot, even if it was loud. "I don't really do anything for Halloween..." He said with a shrug.
He didn't know what else to say....should he cheer for his house? what would he say? Gryffindor? Lions?...awkward.

Lana smiled brightly as she heard more of her fellow 'Claws cheering. The Head Girl was even cheering too and that made it even cooler. Now that was how it needed to be done! This was really going to be their year and they were not going to let anything stop them.
Setting her pennant down, she rummaged through her bag quickly and pulled her scarf out. They weren't proper pom-poms, but it would work for the moment. Scrunching her house scarf in one hand and waving her pennant in the other, she started her cheering a bit louder.
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles!
Do what we say!
And get out the way!!"
Shaking her scarf and pennant again, she thought of other things to cheer and smiled as something came to her mind.
"Eagles, it's time to fight!
Everybody yell
Blue and Bronze!
Blue and Bronze!
Eagles, let's do it again!
Everybody yell
Go Fight Win!
Go Fight Win!"

Pep Rally!
Granted Vickers wasnt the type to scream and yell and and do any sorts of crazy stunts whilst completely sober. Didnt mean he had any less school spirit. And so goes the Ravernerd into the stadium, tugging and controlling a rather large EAGLE KITE to rally some House Pride. Sure he may not be as witty with the cheers, but what he lacks for hyperness he makes up for creativity. Its the Ravenclaw way yeah?
He spotted his lovely ginger girlfriend cheering to her heart's content. "Hey Lou--!" he called out over the din as he navigated himself and the tethered floating eagle beside the Head Girl. He brings out what looks to be really long wand until he squeezes the end-- and out comes FIREWORKS shooting up and exploding all around the Ravenclaw side of the stadium, of which he does manage to yell out "GOOOOO RAVENCLAWWWWWW!!!!"
Yeah thats what crazy is, when its broken you say theres nothing to fix++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++And you pray that everything will be okay, while you're making all the same mistakes
Kennedy Escalante was more than ready to do THIS! In times like these, the ones where Slytherin pride could be expressed as loud as possible, a huge amount of excitement took over the Head Boy. He climbed the steps in two and threes until he got to the snake section.
YEAAAAAAAAAAH!
He raked the crowed, his eyes searching for Sierra and a few others. He hoped she'd come down here. It was good to at least get distracted for a while.
The cheers reached his ears and a massive smile spread on his face. SLYTHERIN TIME!
"I can't hear YOU!" he said, loud and clear. "Who are WE?" And his snakes better all shout this very loud and, of course, with lots of pride. Not that they weren't doing that, but they HAD to be the loudest of all the houses.

Aurora had been sat in the common room trying to do this hair thing for AGES and she had MANAGED it!!! So she grabbed her jacket and ran up to the stadium with a big grin on her face. SLYTHERIN PRIIIIIIDE!!!
So she'd put on as much Slytherin stuff as she could, brought her flag, plaited some ribbons into bracelets and... CHARMED HER HAIR GREEEEEEEEEN!!!! And the ends were silver! All that practice had paid off! She snuck up behind Kennedy and as he shouted...
"SLYTHERIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she yelled, waving her flag and using her spare hand to tuck her GREEN hair behind her ear. GREEEEEN!!!!!!!!! SHE WAS SO PROUD OF HERSELF FOR THIIIIIS!

At long last he finally caught eyes with a bright red head asking why there weren't any bare chest lion mascot. "There's a naked mascot?" Tag asked as he came face to face with Selina.
There hadn't been any pep rally last term, right? Oh well, if there was Tag was probably pigging out in the kitchen. But this seemed like fun though. An receiving cookies was an extra too.

Yes. Jake was pumped. He was excited. He was PEPPY. He was so full of house-pride it was a miracle he wasn't spouting off cheers and waving pom poms. He did, however, paint his torso in his house colors. Half gold, half red. In place of a shirt. Ya know, since he didn't have a Gryffindor or Gryffindor-like shirt. Paint was the only acceptable replacement.
"WOOOOO!" he cheered again as he ran up the stands to the group of red-and-gold clad students. "YEAH!"
He could so be a cheerleader. If this Quidditch thing didn't work out for him...

Penelope made her way quickly down to the stands for the pep rally. Shame it wasn't for a match yet, but pep rallies sounded cool too, especially since she'd never really been to one before. So this would be interesting.
Entering the stands, she quickly spotted Selina and Tag, so she walked over to them...and heard something about a bare chested/naked mascot? And THAT was when she spotted Jake. "Found him," she said, smirking.

Andddd... of course there was a crazy shirtless guy. That seemed more like a pep rally that she was expecting.
... That was her half dressed man. "You know... you could have just transfigured a shirt a different color if you didn't have red." But nope. He had to be a guy. Unless... he did it on purpose... in which case... Anya needed to rethink some things.
She casually stepped in front of him, because, you know, eyes to yourselves ladies.
Oh. And there were other people too. "Capt'n. Gideon. Taggie. Penne." she said with a smile nodding to each of them.

Sarah decked out in Red and gold screamed over the din "lions"
"GRRR . . . GRRR . . . GRYFFINDOR!" Sarah yelled.
Then she went: "In Hogwarts, mighty Hogwarts, the lions roar tonight"

She laid out one before her... the back looked really nice..
SPOILER!!: back of tshirt
. She looked down at the front of it.. it was OKAY:
SPOILER!!: front of tshirt
"Lions... do you want a TSHIRT?" she said. Not waiting for a reply she gave one to Gideon, Selina, Anya, Ira, Penelope, Jake (Sarah had never formally met him), Tag, and another boy and a girl (IbeJen and Landon)

Nope, the carefully iced red and gold cookies were in a box that she had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on so she could fit them all in.
As for the other, erm, cookie...
*THUD THUD THUD THUD*
Kurumi wobbled in her yellow boots as she made her way over to the rest of her house followed by a larger than life size lion cookie. Selina HAD said big... and this lion cookie put some of those balloons you saw in nonmagical parades to shame. The charms on the cookie were nothing special really. Kurumi had witnessed them as a first year when Cam had performed them at the opening feast on her normal sized lion cookies. Waving her wand a bit to help the giant beast along as it continued to stomp its way, Kurumi wished she had had time to make he be able to roar properly. As it was now, it just pawed at the air occasionally and was able to walk around on command.
*STOMP STOMP STOMP*
By the time Kurumi had arrived her giant cookie's roaring wasn't really needed as the rest of her house was roaring away - not that the added effect wouldn't be appreciated.
Weaving her way through everyone, Kurumi managed to find her way beside Selina and handed her the box of cookies. "Alright, captain...I'm here...and I brought a friend."
Cue a MASSIVE pawing at the air from the giant cookie.

All she could think about was yelling at all the Gryffindor boys to show their pride in a similar fashion as a few years ago when Carter was Captain. That was an AWESOME Pep Rally. She missed a lot of the people on that team. Especially since, back in the day, it was mostly boys on the team, which always made for a fun time.
So brushing aside what he said, she merely chuckled, "November or not... house pride is forever." In her crazed state of mind, she supposed that her logic made sense. To the average person what she was suggesting was downright ludicrous. The sixth year was just not the most stable person in the world, especially when it came to house support. Selina really was the unofficial mascot for Gryffindor. And it was something that she was rather proud of to be honest.
Then she saw all of her little lions make their way onto the field. She grinned and nodded to each of them as they showed up, "Hey Taggle, Alice, Jake, Penelope, Anya, Ira." That seemed like MOST of the little lions. Although, out of the corner of her eye, she did see Landon and Melanie talking. She waved at them as well, "Hey Melanie, Landon." It seemed like a majority of her team was here, which made her happy. The only one she saw who was missing was Dylan, the ickle first year. Where was he?
Then, she heard all of the ickle lions talking about a shirtless mascot. She smiled at the memory and paused to explain, "Back when Anya's brother was Captain, we had a pep rally. All of the boys on the team, per me and Kurumi's request, went to the pep rally shirtless and we painted their chests red and gold. It was awesome. But me and Kurumi dressed up Gideon in a tail and some cub ears. So he was the shirtless mascot." Just so all of them knew why she was talking about that. It was sort of a random thing to be a continuous part of conversation, so she was just setting the record straight now.
However, she started to hear a very loud thud as all of the Gryffindors, including the adorable one who was handing out the t-shirts, started to mingle amongst themselves. But Selina blatantly ignored ALL of them because Kurumi had arrived. And as much as she loved her best friend, she was more interested in WHAT her best friend had arrived with. It was magical, it was huge, it was A COOKIE!!!!
AHHHHHHHH IT WAS A LIFE SIZED GIANT LION COOKIE THAT MOVED. HOW DID SHE BLOODY DO THAT?!
Selina ran at Kurumi and excitedly embraced the cookie. As she hugged it, she lifted her head away and smiled at Kurumi, "It's perfect. It's so, so, so very perfect." As she snuggled her head back into the cookie, she, in a muffled voice, muttered, "By the way, hi there."
After a few moments, Selina finally pulled away from the huge cookie and gave it one more smile. It was perfect. Just so perfect.
But she had work to do. She ran up the steps so she was overlooking all of the Gryffindors. The redhead pulled out her wand and waved it so a LOUD SONG PUMPED THROUGH THE STADIUM!
She pumped her fist in the air and yelled, "WHO ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?" WHO WERE THEY FIGHTING FOR, LIONS????

Yay KURUMI-WAS-HERE! Sarah grinned and was about to hand a t-shirt when she realized that... Kurumi had brought a YUM friend.. and it moved... Sarah hoped it did not crumble... "Hello - Howdya do that?" Sarah asked the older girl in awe... she always knew her prefect was AWESOME!!
Anyway Sarah was still handing out Tshirt and handed one to Kurumi, "you can wear it if you want..." and she got another one, "does the mascot want one too? He can have one with pleasure!" not waking for an answer, Sarah gave noth of them to Kurumi. Anyway Sarah had lots more...

Then Selina told them what had happened a all those years ago... that was hilarious. Yet it was so ukurumi ike to do such a thing anyway. Sarah got
into the vibe. Was it a trick question or what? obviously lions.. they were the top of the food chain after all! She she yelled "GRYFFINDOR -ROAR,ROAR,ROAR!" And she waved her arms in the air... she was on a mission...

And then, "Hey, Anya," he said automatically as his girlfriend joined them. "Um." Transfigured a shirt color? "I... don't know how." He had learned how to transfigure a shirt in class... but change the color? No. Jake watched as Anya stepped in front of him, clearly trying to cover up his masterfully painted abs. Psh. "I'm perfectly decent, ya know," he said, putting his hands on her shoulders and stepping slightly to the side so she wasn't in front of him, and crossing his arms. Decent, yes. Warm? Definitely not. He hadn't thought about how cold it would be to go without a shirt. But... oh well. There were plenty of things to keep his mind off the cold.
Such as a giant lion... cookie.
Jake just stared at the thing as he watched the Prefect walk over. That was a cookie."Did you make that?" Sweet Merlin, that was amazing. Could they eat it? It was probably enough cookie to feed the whole of Gryffindor house...
Selina could say what she wanted, that wasn't going to get Gideon to take off his shirt. He was already being outside his usual quieter self he couldn't push it. Besides he had been wrangled the last time around, gouded by friend, girlfriend and finally captain alike. Not to mention the peer pressure from the older boys.
Gideon hadn't seen Tag approach, but he surely turned when the second year spoke up announcing his presence. Of course he had to have heard Selina's comment. Cue a certain prefect having to fight the urge to blush at the memory. "Nae...there isn't," he remarked, shooting a look at Selina when she explained the story.
Probably a good thing certain people weren't around to hear and tease him to no end about it.
However who was around was Jake aka Anya's boyfriend. Not a totally comfortable subject with Gideon. It reminded him too much that Kacie was of that same age and he really wasn't in the mood to beat off boys from her OR Carter's sister as he felt somewhat protective of her as well. The younger boy in question was doing a reproduction of the previous pep rally...chest painted and all.
Aye...let the younger lions have their fun.
First Penelope and Anya later arrived adding to their mix. "Hey Guys," Gideon greeted having finally recovered his voice...and his relative dignity. What? The older lion was far more dignified nowadays and would rather not be put in that situation at the moment. He smiled as Sarah was heard yelling over the din. Taking the offered shirt with a polite but quiet "Thank you," the prefect looked it over, spotting his great aunt amongst the names and couldn't help put chuckle at the last line. "Very nice."
Then there was stomping to be heard and one might have thought it was a whole bunch of students simply making noise. However as his fellow prefect made her appearance in the Gryffindor stands all nearby learned where the sound was coming from. One very large...very moving lion COOKIE!!
"Well I think ye may have outdid yerself this time, Kurumi," he remarked chuckling at his friend. Selina had to be in her element. Speaking of which one moment he had heard her react to her best friend and the next minute she seemed to have disappeared. It was when loud music sounded that he found her, obviously the instigator of the Gryffindor cry.

Minerva bounced around in her badger laughing as she heard some of her house friends cheering with her. Looking at the prefect she went over and did a little dance clapping her hands cheering with Belle

As Minerva danced around the professors and tried to get them to their feet in her badger costume she heard someone yell and looked to see Oakey. She couldn't help it but stopped dancing for a second and felt her cheeks get super red. MINERVA.. she screamed in her head.. You are in a badger costume NO ONE knows who you are... He doesn't know it's you stop being dumb. She began dancing again feeling a bit self conscious knowing Oakey was headed her way.
Then Oakey was doing what?? He....was..dancing with her. Giggle... She felt excited, but awkward even in the costume, but she reminded herself that he had no clue it was her and that he was probably over dancing because it was in front of the professors with a Badger. So she kept dancing and trying to get the Charms and DADA Professors as well as the Librarian up.
Mika made her way over to Beezus, Blue, and Nigel and waving over to them she couldn't help but smile. She stood up on her tippy-toes and waved over to both Blue, Beezus, and Nigel. She'd never actually spoken really with Beezus or Nigel but they were Ravenclaws they were pretty cool.
"Go RAVENCLAW Wavvy Ravy Ravenclaw." Yeah maybe that didn't work but she'd chant ANYTHING. Anything at all.

Minerva bounced around in her badger laughing as she heard some of her house friends cheering with her. Looking at the prefect she went over and did a little dance clapping her hands cheering with Belle
"GO PUFFS.... GO PUFFS.. WE ARE HUFFLEPUFF"
Belle's voice was hoarse she couldn't cheer that loud. She had to mouth the words.
HULLFEPUFF! HUFFLEPUFF! Stomping her feet and clapping her hands till they were numb. She actually brought a blow horn in her bag from home. She decided to use it
Mr. Unicorn: Kim's daughter: Jenn's sister : MILKSHAKES: Lita Daley: The Sun: Its so Fluffy!
SPOILER!!: Penelope
Pep rally! This looked fun!
Penelope made her way quickly down to the stands for the pep rally. Shame it wasn't for a match yet, but pep rallies sounded cool too, especially since she'd never really been to one before. So this would be interesting.
Entering the stands, she quickly spotted Selina and Tag, so she walked over to them...and heard something about a bare chested/naked mascot? And THAT was when she spotted Jake. "Found him," she said, smirking.
Tag turned around to see who was near him and he found Penelope had arrived. And she looked pretty, really pretty. Hey Penelope. You look really really pretty today. " He greeted her with a warm smile.More than most days. She knew he called her pretty right whenever he got the chance. "But you look pretty every day." Tag added with a nod just so she wouldn't misunderstand him.
SPOILER!!: Anya
Anya headed to the pep rally. As a muggle born, she expected there to be... cheerleaders and... stuff. But there... wasn't. Of course, had there been a cheerleading squad, her name would have been on that list instead of the quidditch one.
Andddd... of course there was a crazy shirtless guy. That seemed more like a pep rally that she was expecting.
... That was her half dressed man. "You know... you could have just transfigured a shirt a different color if you didn't have red." But nope. He had to be a guy. Unless... he did it on purpose... in which case... Anya needed to rethink some things.
She casually stepped in front of him, because, you know, eyes to yourselves ladies.
Oh. And there were other people too. "Capt'n. Gideon. Taggie. Penne." she said with a smile nodding to each of them.
Tag made a disgusted face when he saw Anya's 'boyfriend' came shirtless. He didn't even have a good body so he found it pointless. Tag, on the other hand, believed he had a pretty good body but he didn't want to blind his girls. Besides, he was too young to show off.
"Hey Anya!" Tag said happily to her. Maybe they needed the Gryffindor crowd to draw some attention. Get all the other houses jealous of their attractivness and spirit to the school. So he casually asked with a smirk on his face, "Wanna have a dance off?" Cue two eyebrow arches.
SPOILER!!: Gideon
Gideon hadn't seen Tag approach, but he surely turned when the second year spoke up announcing his presence. Of course he had to have heard Selina's comment. Cue a certain prefect having to fight the urge to blush at the memory. "Nae...there isn't," he remarked, shooting a look at Selina when she explained the story.
"There isn't? That's a shame. Maybe they'll have auditions for some next term? I think I'd be good at that. I'm really hyper and can make people laugh." Please tell Tag that there were talks of mascots for next term, Gideon. Tag put his two hands together and looked up at the sky in hopes that this could be a possibitily.
SPOILER!!: Selina
Then she saw all of her little lions make their way onto the field. She grinned and nodded to each of them as they showed up, "Hey Taggle, Alice, Jake, Penelope, Anya, Ira." That seemed like MOST of the little lions. Although, out of the corner of her eye, she did see Landon and Melanie talking. She waved at them as well, "Hey Melanie, Landon." It seemed like a majority of her team was here, which made her happy. The only one she saw who was missing was Dylan, the ickle first year. Where was he?
Tag smiled when Selina called him Taggle. He didn't really remember how his name came to be Taggle but he liked it. It was his special nickname from Selina. It was slightly more different than the others."ELLLO!" Wait, he already said that.
When Selina screamed Tag leaned back a bit. The girl had the lungs of an air ballon and he had been completely startled by her reaction, and spirit.With a slightly amused expression Tag looked all around him and did in his best voice "GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR! C'MON GUYS! JOIN IN! GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR!"
SPOILER!!: Kurumi
Kurumi was not running late. Not in the traditional sense of the word anyway. Selina had given the seventh year very specific instructions: BRING COOKIES. Not that Kurumi hadn't been planning on it before...but Selina had mentioned big. So...she had had to start over with her initial plans. Not that she had tossed her first batch out. Nope, the carefully iced red and gold cookies were in a box that she had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on so she could fit them all in.
As for the other, erm, cookie...
AWWWW YES! Kurumi was here. An what was Kurumi's trademark? Cookies. Or anything baked. Tag smiled from both ends of his face when he saw her making her way along. "KURUMI! KURUMI! Selina said if I came down here I'd get the first cookie! Can I get one?!" He said rather excitedly forgetting to say hi to her. Oh well, she could probably tell from his excitement that this was also for her.
Laura decided it was time for the best song for Hufflepuff to be played, she started singing the song and she made sure she had the music blaring as she sung the song. The Song Laura was good at this. "YEAH HUFFLEPUFF ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!" Laura shouted.

... Oakey?!
Alec blinked at the boy. That was a LOT of Hufflepuff Pride! GRIN. How awesome was this?! The hoodie, the trousers and, most importantly, the face paint! GRIN. He looked like a real badger, he did! Maybe... maybe all the Hufflepuffs can wear the same face paint and... well... scare the others? You know, in a friendly way. That would be awesome!
And the older boy had MORE good news! Alec watched as he took out... was that a megaphone?! MORE GRINNING. Why? Because Oakey's chant was AWESOME! And it wasn't hard to remember, really. They could all just hear it once and then sing along. And... dance?
... No. He, Alec, wasn't good at dancing.
"Sounds great, Oakey!" GRIN! ... And... someone else came along as well. "Jory! Hey!" ... Alec didn't know when the last time the two had hung out was. Really. They had met before, he was certain about that, but... they hadn't hung out recently, had they? No. That was not good. "Nice outfit, mate," he said, grinning some more.
And then... came two people Alec had never met before. And they, the girl and the boy, looked a lot older than him. But... not Professor-like. Just older. He smiled and waved at them. Hopefully, they'd join in on the cheer, yeah? Yeah! That would be awesome! The more the merrier.
This badger person's voice sounded really familiar! Who was in that badger suit? Who would come to a pep rally dressed as a badger, apart from Aaron Roberts? Yeah... he didn't really know. Unless... had Messy taken his badger costume and decided to show up in it? ... Maybe not. But he really was going to find out soon enough! They couldn't leave without knowing who was in that costume.
And this badger person... they knew the song! Alec grinned widely. "I know that song! The Black and Yellow one?" he said, bouncing slightly, "It's an awesome song and... and... it's perfect for us!" And it was a nice song... some of it, anyways. Like the chorus. They could just sing the chorus and change a few of the other lyrics right? Right! "Awesome cartwheels badger!"
He turned away from the cartwheeling badger only to find... that someone... had come as a cheerleader? Alec grinned at the girl. See, this is what he liked about pep rallies. Everyone just went all out for them! "Awesome cheerleading, Laura!" GRIN. Yeah... they should all join in and cheer together soon. Nod.
MESSY BROUGHT HIS POM POMS!
Alec grinned widely at his roommate. This was a good choice on Messy's part. Really. And to show his appreciation, Alec did what he never usually did and hugged his roommate. "I'm proud of you mate," he said, letting go and patting the guy on his back. There.
... And then the boy had to ruin things by asking that question. "But... mate, there can't be two people in badger costumes here!" he said, nodding over towards the person in the badger costume, "And I really like this hoodie!" He did! It was a really nice hoodie! GRIN. "Good call on bringing the pom poms!"
NESSIE! Alec GRINNED at the Captain. It was a good thing she was here, considering this was a Quidditch event and... well... she was the Quidditch Captain for Hufflepuff. She kind of needed to be here, right? Yeah! Although, if she wasn't here, they would have probably given her some sweets or chocolates or something back in the common room. You know, if she was sick. Then she wouldn't have missed a thing!
And she was singing that song! HOW AWESOME WAS THIS?
"YEAAAAAAH! UH HUH, YOU KNOW WHAT IS IT... BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW!"
... Could they all join in on that and sing it as one big happy house? GRIN.
... And Oakey was cheering again! Alec looked at him and grinning, bouncing along to the cheer. Although... he really needed to ask this now otherwise it'll be a bit too late, right? Yeah. "Hey Oakey?" he asked, tapping the guy on the shoulder, "Have you got any face paint?" GRIN!
Oh Lewis was here! When... had he come? Alec didn't see him coming in... not really. Unless he had somehow snuck in? Yeah, maybe. But he was here so... that was good. Awesome, in fact. "Hey Lewis!" he said, grinning at waving at the cool, older guy.
The fourteen year old turned back to his fellow third year as she started talking. "Pom pom trouble," he said, nodding seriously at Ella, "Yeah! He doesn't go to these things without those!" Although, they hadn't had a lot of these events before, had they? Not really, no. But Messy had brought then once before. Alec was pretty sure of that.
Erm... she was asking him to sing? Actually, correction: she was asking him to rap?! "Erm... I... well..." He cleared his throat before starting to bounce. "Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is... BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW!" GRIN! It was awesome! ... And gummy worms? "Thanks Ells!" he said, taking a few and plopping them in his mouth. The girl was really nice when it came to her gummy worms and her ice cream. Alec liked that.
Belle really was happy about a lot of things, wasn't she? It was awesome! And because of that, Alec was usually happy around her as well. How could anyone not be when Belle was around? Yeah... more people should meet the girl because she really was that awesome.
"Oh... I thought that lots of people would come to this," he said, shrugging his shoulders. It was kind of a given, wasn't it? Lots of people turned up to Quidditch matches... right? So a pep rally... people would turn up, wouldn't they? ... "Maybe!" he said, chuckling lightly, "That makes us really cool, right? Because we came here?" GRIN.
Laura was enjoying herself and now it was time to go and sing one of the best songs ever, and it was going to show the spirit of the Hufflepuff. YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE!!!!!!!!!! Laura loved this song and it so sure the spirit of a HUFFLEPUFF, when one is down they are all down and they will fight and defend each other. "GO GO HUFFLEPUFF, GO GO!" Laura smiled as she continued to cheer.
Presley was a little late, but it was excusable because she'd been using the time to get all decked out in her Ravenclaw pride outfit! She scanned the stadium to be pleased when she noticed her house cheering the loudest. She beamed and clambered into the mess of students. She couldn't see anything but a giant Eagle kite in all of the chaos. Until she noticed Elliot cheering loudly.
With a boy. A Gryffindor boy. This had to be her Maxwell kid. With the mentally disabled step-sister. Presley pushed through the crowd until she was near them. "Elliot!" she exclaimed. "I didn't think you were going to come!" What was up with Elliot lately? Honestly? She pretended not to notice Maxwell. They hadn't been introduced yet and since she knew he was a pureblood she knew that he and Elliot both knew the polite customs that had to be followed. Elliot would have to introduce them before they could acknowledge each other. She nudged Elliot "Introduce us," the fifth year murmured. She really did want to meet this kid who was apparently so nice.
Presley turned to to front for a moment. Long enough to shout "Go CLAWS!!!!" See, pep rallies were her thing. Not really Elliot's, but definitely Presley's.

Beezus giggled some more, still unaware of the mascot's identity. But what did she care? At least he was cheering for Ravenclaw.
"Glad to have you here then! Do breathe fire on the other houses." Yeah, she was kidding. With a laugh, she quickly hugged the dragon and resumed her cheering.

Enthusiastic waving for you too Lana! HAAAAAAIIIIIII!! She must look really funny right now, grinning from ear to ear, doing some jumping stunts and waving to almost every Ravenclaw she could see.
And they should get on cheering! HUZZAH!!

Oh. They were cheering. Right. She hadn't exactly come up with one so...
"GOOOO RAVENCLAAAAAAW."
That'd do.
Hello Blue, darling!
Beezus tilted her head side to side as she pulled the younger 'claw in a for a hug. HEHE. "Thank you..You look good too." Wink.
And yes, yes. Do help with the cheering. And maybe she wanted pom poms too?

Now it was time for a megaphone. Nigel brought his megaphone from under his robes and shouted into
YEAH CLAWS. GO RAVENCLAW!!!!
So Nigel was also there. "Haaaaaiiiii Nigel!" More waves. "..thank you!" she replied. "Oh, oh! Face paint!"
With the megaphone, "GUYS! WE HAVE PAINT FOR YOUR LOVELY FACES HERE!!" she announces over the Ravencaw crowd. Come one eagles, you need genuine Ravenclaw make up!

She decided she might as well join in...you know, show those snakes that hey, Ravenclaws can dominate, too. Because Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors aren't much competition, are they? (No offense, Maxwell. )
"WE'VE GOT THE RHYTHM,
WE'VE GOT THE BEAT,
COME ON RAVENCLAWS,
TURN UP THE HEAT...
AND LET'S DEFEAT!" she cheered along with Beezus...That was kind of fun. Though she wasn't nearly as loud....
And then she cheered along with Lana, because her cheer was awesome, tooooo!
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles
Do what we say
And get out the way"
She kind of swayed to the beat...there was no way she was jumping around or anything..nuh uuuuh!
GOOD ELLIOT.
"You should've worn a costume Elliot! You could be our House muse or something.." Well, she was pretty and alluring. *BROWS* Beezus gave her a thumbs up before getting on with the cheering and chanting.
SPOILER!!: Looooou

When the other younger 'claws started cheering suddenly, her attention was drawn over to them and instantly she joined,
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles
Do what we say
And get out the way!!"
She turned around to them, gave them the thumps up and started again...
maybe they all should sit as a group and do the wave? Or flap their hands like an almighty eagle?
Louisa knew who the dragon was? "Hey Louisa!" Beezus greeted the Head Girl, and at the same time handing her some blue and bronze pom poms. "You know who our mascot is?" She sent a look to the mascot then back to her.
TELL HER WHO IT WAS? 'Coz Beezus didn't have a clue. Hehe.
SPOILER!!: more Lana

Setting her pennant down, she rummaged through her bag quickly and pulled her scarf out. They weren't proper pom-poms, but it would work for the moment. Scrunching her house scarf in one hand and waving her pennant in the other, she started her cheering a bit louder.
"We are the Eagles!
The Mighty Mighty Eagles!
Do what we say!
And get out the way!!"
Shaking her scarf and pennant again, she thought of other things to cheer and smiled as something came to her mind.
"Eagles, it's time to fight!
Everybody yell
Blue and Bronze!
Blue and Bronze!
Eagles, let's do it again!
Everybody yell
Go Fight Win!
Go Fight Win!"
Lana was so into it! The girl was right, there should be a cheering squad for their House!
Beezus immediately got into joining in with the cheer,
"EVERYBODY YELL! BLUE AND BROZE! BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!"

And there goes Vickers. WHOA. JUST WHOA!
After the older 'Claw had caught up to his girlfriend, Beezus waded over to where he was, clapping him on the back, giggling. "That is just amazing!" the brunette looked up in awe at the large kite and fireworks. "YOU are amazing!"
..and could she hug him? Yeah, NO. Louisa probably won't like that. Hehe. So she just thrust some pom poms his way.

Look, a girl was waving at her! Beezus waved back even if she didn't who it was. "Hulloooooo!" Then she thrust some pom poms her way.
Maxwell was regretting coming to the pep rally, he was utterly bored. What was the point of this? To see who could yell the loudest? which house was the most annoying? He'd found himself bored lately with things that normally held his interest.
"Well, we can help each other with potions." He said smiling. He was happy to be around Elliot, even if it was loud. "I don't really do anything for Halloween..." He said with a shrug.
He didn't know what else to say....should he cheer for his house? what would he say? Gryffindor? Lions?...awkward.
Yeah..."GOod idea..." Elliot had a sneeeeakeh suspicion she was better at potions than poor Maxwell...
Snort.
"Don't feel like you have to cheer, Max." she said, seeing that he was quite uncomfortable...Elliot was, too, though!

"Real smooth, Black," she said with an eyeroll...and she turned to Maxwell..."Max, this is one of my best friends, Presley Black." She felt really cool right now...making connections between two very prestigious people...a Lupin AND a Black...prominent names, they were. "Presley, this is Maxwell." or Max. whichever you felt like caling him.

Why didn't they get a banner to run through or something? West wasn't sure why there was a pep rally if it wasn't to show off their awesome team.
And probably the other houses okay teams.
But mostly Slytherin's AWESOME team.
He had, in fact, come in his Quidditch uniform. The number '1' emblazoned on his back along with his name 'ODESSA'.
He wasn't sure what the other houses were trying to prove, and he was only here on account of he was sure that the Captain would give him disappointed looks if he didn't show. Where were his friends?
THERE THEY WERE! He waved at his friends and then his team mates. Yeah! WEST ODESSA IN THE HOUSE! NUMBER ONE according to his Quidditch number.
... he could get into this pep thing if it was cheering about him, maybe.

Oh..PRESLEY! Elliot whipped around, shooting her friend a smirk. "Of course I came...I had to show that we have the best house ever...though, I don;t cheer much..." yeah...just the cool chant things. ANd she wasn't even that loud!
"Real smooth, Black," she said with an eyeroll...and she turned to Maxwell..."Max, this is one of my best friends, Presley Black." She felt really cool right now...making connections between two very prestigious people...a Lupin AND a Black...prominent names, they were. "Presley, this is Maxwell." or Max. whichever you felt like caling him.
Presley gave Elliot a face when she mentioned being smooth. It's not like the boy could hear them with all the noise going on around them. Plus, Elliot had just called him "Max" this was the second time Presley had heard Elliot use a nickname for a boy, and the third time she'd ever heard Elliot use a nickname at all. (She'd once called Presley "Pres" and had gotten a little weird about it.) "It's nice to meet you, Maxwell." Presley said with her voice slightly raised, so he could hear her over the screaming students.
"I've already met your step-sister." poor disabled girl that she was. Presley wondered idly if Elliot would bring Maxwell as her plus one to the Christmas Soiree that was happening at Black Manor this holidays. Because that would be fine with Presley. And it would almost make up for Elliot having to wear baby blue. "So, you're in Gryffindor?" she asked for the sake of conversation. But...why was he in the Ravvie section if he was a Gryff? Whatever.

Alex wasn't really a peppy person by nature, but Hufflepuff was struggling hardcore to get on their feet this semester and he wasn't really helping much...whoops! so he needed to bring out the Huffie spirit in his peers! He was wearing a Hufflepuff t-shirt and had painted streaks of yellow and black on his face. He was carrying a Hufflepuff badger pennant and had even changed the laces in his Converse to yellow for the occasion. Take a picture folks--this was about as much school spirit as you were going to get out of Alex Greingoth.
He stepped in to the stands and pushed his way towards the Hufflepuff section. He made his way alllllll the way to the back, so he wouldn't block people with his stupid height, and turned around to face the stadium. "WOOOOOOOOOOT! GO HUFFLEPUFF!!!!!" he cried. Umm...what else should he yell?

Sutton wasn't entirely sure how she felt about this pep rally thing. She'd been to a lot of high school football games with her older sisters, and the students always got REALLY crazy... it kinda scared her sometimes. She could only imagine what sort of shenanigans would be going on when you added magic to that.
Before she had even made it all the way into the stadium, she could HEAR how insane it was. Smiling, Sutton sported her Hufflepuff House Spirit Proudly and ran through the stadium to where the other Hufflepuffs were yelling and screaming loudly. Football had cheerleaders to lead cheers, that made it a bit a bit more organized. Sutton had been a cheerleader once upon a time... for little league football.
Yeah..."GOod idea..." Elliot had a sneeeeakeh suspicion she was better at potions than poor Maxwell...
Snort.
"Don't feel like you have to cheer, Max." she said, seeing that he was quite uncomfortable...Elliot was, too, though!
Oh..PRESLEY! Elliot whipped around, shooting her friend a smirk. "Of course I came...I had to show that we have the best house ever...though, I don;t cheer much..." yeah...just the cool chant things. ANd she wasn't even that loud!
"Real smooth, Black," she said with an eyeroll...and she turned to Maxwell..."Max, this is one of my best friends, Presley Black." She felt really cool right now...making connections between two very prestigious people...a Lupin AND a Black...prominent names, they were. "Presley, this is Maxwell." or Max. whichever you felt like caling him.

(She'd once called Presley "Pres" and had gotten a little weird about it.) "It's nice to meet you, Maxwell." Presley said with her voice slightly raised, so he could hear her over the screaming students.
"I've already met your step-sister." poor disabled girl that she was. Presley wondered idly if Elliot would bring Maxwell as her plus one to the Christmas Soiree that was happening at Black Manor this holidays. Because that would be fine with Presley. And it would almost make up for Elliot having to wear baby blue. "So, you're in Gryffindor?" she asked for the sake of conversation. But...why was he in the Ravvie section if he was a Gryff? Whatever.
Maxwell was about to say something before he was introduced to a 'Presley'. "Hello, Nice to meet you too, Presley...huh? Ohh Taylor? Yeah..." He wasn't sure why this girl meeting his sister was important. "Yeah...You're a Ravenclaw? Sorry for invading your section but all this house pride crap isn't really my thing..." He said with a shrug.
"Ell, maybe we could get out of here in a little bit...you know unless you're getting into all this, shouting and cheering..."

Huh? Who was tapping him? Dragon!Spike turned to the 'Claw. "Huggable?" Spike repeated with a smile, stopping his bouncing for a moment. "Of course I am." What else would a blue fluffy dragon be here for? Well, except to encourage Ravenclaw spirit... Hugs were totally a part of that though. House unity and friendship was important above all else.
"You want one?" he asked, opening his arms wide, ready to engulf her in a big fluffy hug if she did. "I'm a big friendly dragon, and I give pretty good hugs, even if I do say so myself." He nodded seriously. "Just...watch the wings. They're a little temperamental.."
Well, he HAD charmed them himself. Maybe he should have got Indy to do them, as well as his face paint.
"R-A-V-E-N-C-L-A-DOUBLE-YOU!" she cheered, along with her housemates. Ravenclaws weren't always antisocial bookworms. Nope. They were Ravenclawsome.
Elise kinda almost jumped when the huggable!Dragon turned around to face her. He was just so blue and fluffy and squishable. And tall. Elise definitely was not tall. "That's good." It was. Because Elise liked hugs. And hugs from giant blue dragon plushies were even better!
"Mmhmm!" she grinned, nodding. Big fluffy hugs were the best kind of hugs. Especially when they were Big Blue Fluffy Hugs from a Big Blue Fluffy Dragon. "I've never hugged a big friendly dragon before," she said bluntly. So she wouldn't know, would she? "I like the wings. They're very cute. And Ravenclawsome." Well, they were!
And Ravenclawsome was very much welcome at these pep rallies. Just because.

Minerva was dancing.. well more like jumping around the stands where the professors were sitting still having no luck getting them up. She was really enjoying the help from Oakey, they still made a pretty good team even if he didn't know it was her under the costume. That's when she heard it, the song she suggested to Alec he was yelling it out well singing it loudly. She began singing it through her costume;
Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is
Everything I do, I do it big
Yeah, uh huh screaming that's nothing
BLACK AND YELLOW, BLACK, AND YELLOW, BLACK AND YELLOW
Minerva started using the song to dance with a beat hoping the beat could inspire some adults **wink wink** to come dance as well...

Dylan entered finally after trying to navigate his way through the school in this costume! It wasnt easy when the head was so big and you were a little.. little. But he finally managed it and went to the Gryffindors section "ROAR!!!" he yelled out so that everyone would see that he was here, in a costume.. as they all should have been! He was excited to be here soon he would be playing out on that pitch now that he had made the team, he just hoped that he could make his team proud.. if not he would just keep trying until he did. It was then that he noticed a... badger? well that badger was going to some lion treatment, cause that badger needed to know who was boss.. the lions were and he was dressed as one so it was his duty to show that.
He went over to the badger as it was doing some funny... dance.... thing.. with a hufflepuff and singing an awful.. awful song. Dylan raised his eyebrows under his costume... were all hufflepuffs this .... crazy?... weird? well there were two so... that meant they were all like that right? he looked over at the others.. as if he was expecting them all to get up and do this.... funny dance thing and sing that song... but no-one was. So he decided to show them he was there... the coolest lion of all.. going to scare a hufflepuff out of their costume.. Lol! He took a deep breath and let it out "ROAR!!!!" he then ran a few steps back so that the hufflepuff in the costume wouldn't be able to catch him or even fall over on top of him. So maybe this was going to be fun afterall!
