This corridor is a simple, airy hallway with openings to allow in as much sunshine as possible and fresh air. It is an excellent transition from the school to the grounds as it exits out into the courtyard.
Once her laughter finally subsided....she looked at him smugly. "Nothing. I just know...who it is...and ..." she started chuckling again. She was clearly enjoying herself..big time. "I mean, I'm fairly certain I have more than one friend crushing on you...but.." she rolled her eyes, still smirking to herself...
"Well, my dear friend Cora has...a crush on you. I'm sure. I'm not that oblivious, you know, and I hope you aren't, either, Ethan," she raised an eyebrow at him...had he noticed?! That everytime Cora got near him...she got all tongue tied, more nervous than usual, and....she noticed Ethan did, too. "And, my dear Ethan, I know that YOU seem to get a bit flustered around HER as welll...so..I must know, you know, for the sake of Cora's..emotions..whether you feel the same way." She had it ALL out in the open, now. There, Ethan..
Happy?
And no, no mention of Hannah was needed.
Ethan resumed the tapping of his fingers and watched Elliot with a mildly amused expression as she continued. MORE than one..? Cue smug smirk.
But what he did want to know was who Elliot was referring to originally. He watched her with raised eyebrow.. Cora? Hmm, he had wondered about that.. she seemed to be one of the girls that was always blushing around him. But she was very sweet, in a very innocent and pure way.. and he had thought about getting to know her better.. for some time.
And.. WHAT?
The smirk faded into a small scowl. "I do NOT get flustered around girls.." He thought about when he was around her.. sure he might give her a smile or wink when he saw her, but that was far from being flustered. Is that what Elliot thought? Nope, he was calm, cool, and collected.. at least most of the time. He raised an eyebrow and once again graced the girl with a smirk. "If I feel the same.. ? I"m not so sure that's your business.." He let those words hang in the air for a moment, still smirking slightly. And not that he really thought who he liked or didn't like was any of her business, but he knew she was just looking out for her friend.. so he didn't mind sharing just a little bit. Besides.. he had an idea in mind and Elliot might prove useful.
Ethan shrugged. He had felt an attraction to Cora, that left him confused about recent events.. but he wanted to at least explore those feelings. "She's a very sweet girl.." he began, certain that Elliot already knew that about her own friend. "Maybe I can take her out sometime.. just to get to know her better. But I'm not making a commitment, so if you think she'll have a problem with that or get hurt.." he trailed off. Elliot would know Cora better if she thought that was a good idea or not. And the last thing he wanted to do was hurt the girl.. but she did seem a little fragile. The fact was, he did like Cora.. and it could possibly be more than just friends.. but he also was not about to commit to the first girl he went out with at Hogwarts. At least not yet.

Waaaatching.
Watching, watching, watching.
She was WATCHING his expression...hmmm..she narrowed her eyes a bit...he seemed to be thinking. About something. And she wanted to know what! But before she could pry any juicy information from him, he was being all 'waaah I do NOT get nervous' blah blah blah. She rolled her eyes. "No, okay, you don't. Congrats, playboy," she snorted, running a hand through her hair.
Oh please, kid.
She cleared her throat. "It IS my business, though. Kind of. Since it involves a friend and such," she shot back, crossing her arms over her chest. Yeah..tell Elliot to butt out? Riiiight. You have a better chance of poking a sleeping dragon in the eye..and NOT getting completely roasted. Elliot was NOSY and IN YOUR FACE. So there, Ethan. Hmph.
Sweet. Elliot nodded.."she is. And..." he continued..."A date? I mean, you should go on a true date before you go out with someone, anyways. I get that. You want to just know her more..." She understand. Completely. She had done that with Maxwell, after all. "As long as you're straight up with her, she'll be fine." Well, Elliot knew that being straight up...was usually the way to go. No dancing around anything. Hmph.

Gideon watched as Selina accepted the pot from his own hands, the gift passing hands from creator to receiver and inadvertadly finishing the assignment for the task force. Make a gift and give it to someone to cheer them up. The redhead apparently wasn't aware of it, he couldn't remember if she was even signed up for it, so what she didn't know, wouldn't bother her...right? Not that the seventh year was really concerned about it at the moment. all that mattered was it had pleased Selina.
"Glad ye do and glad ye like," he said leaning in over the plant to kiss her softly. "Oh...and they're charmed to last a bit longer then normal." No point in them dying on her before the quidditch season ended after all. He had added the charm as an after thought as he stumbled upon it while studying. Knowing how Selina could get and how the team was behaving so far, she would no doubt need the boost whenever the stress level hit the roof so it had made sense to cover it.
Selina was too busy looking at every piece of the plant to even notice when her boyfriend leaned into kiss her. So when she finally did look up he was already there to press his lips softly to her own. When he pulled away her face was now matching the lovely shade of her red hair. He knew just how to get under her skin in the best way possible. Although, she supposed after you dated someone for nearly three years they would know just how to make you feel better. And he was rather good at doing that for her. Sometimes, she was not discrete enough of a person to be able to pull it off for him, but he always smiled right through her silly attempts.
Oh right. He had put a charm on it. Well, that was not the only thing that he had charmed, but that was way too cheesy of a line for her to even verbalize. Besides, he already knew that. Especially because he always got her to blush a few times whenever they hung out together. Which was a lot of the time.... not that she minded, "Thanks, Gideon. Its really sweet. And I really needed this after the disaster that was practice today. They're all going to kill me..." And she was too young to be this stressed.

No dancing around anything. Hmph.
Ethan smirked slightly as he suppressed a snort of amusement. So the girl was a bit touchy.. heh. He was expecting that.. but he had to put that out there.. It was his business unless he chose to share it, which he did. But it amused him to push the girl's buttons just a little.
He nodded in understanding as Elliot continued. Yep, that's what he wanted.. to know her more.. "Good.. I don't want to give her the wrong idea." She seemed very innocent, he wasn't sure she had much experience with boys.. and he didn't want her to think one date meant going steady. And hurting someone so sweet and innocent wasn't an option. He could be straight with Cora.. no problem. A hint of a smile crossed Ethan's lips as he thought for a moment. "Yeah.. I'll ask her out." He looked at Elliot for a minute as he tapped his fingers on the bench. "I might need your help with something though.."

Whaaat?!
What was this?!
He needed...her?
HELP??
SMIIIIIIIRRRKKKKK.
Elliot had a reeaaaally smug look on her face, now. HEHEHE. She chuckled...a bit evilly, at that, but it was just natural. "Oh, really? It's going to cost you. I don't work for free," she said with a roll of her eyes. Joking, kid, joking. Elliot didn't need money..or any other type of payment. "But I must warn you, Ethan...if you do anything to mess with her or anything...I'll break your face. Yeah, that cute face of yours...right," she smirked as she threatened him, but she clearly meant business.
Yep.
Don't EVER mess with a Morganzo. It should be common sense. "Now, what would you like me to do? Hmm? Or do you need ideas?" Which might be a horrible idea in itself..Elliot had not ONE creative bone in her body...

Ethan raised an eyebrow at Elliot and watched her, slightly amused. Cost him? Did she forget their deal? He'd help her with Herbology if she.. oh right, he didn't actually mention that it was a Transfiguration favor.
But then... ohnoshedidn't.
The slightly amused expression slowly faded into a scowl at the girl's next words. Ethan narrowed his eyes as he leveled his gaze. "And you feel the need to threaten me as well? I'll tell you the same thing I told your boyfriend.. I don't answer to you. I will do what I want when I want." Did she really think she was that intimidating to him? He was certainly no frightened first year. No, the boy did not take too kindly to threats. And he was fairly sure what Maxwell's motives for tossing a few in his direction.. but Elliot's? That was a different story.. and he had a feeling he knew what it was - Cora was as fragile and inexperienced as he thought.
"Mess with her.." he repeated. "It's one date, not a marriage proposal." What was with everyone here? They all seemed to want to rush into the boyfriend/girlfriend thing. He was 15 not 50.. what was wrong with having some fun if both sides agreed to it? "As I just got done saying, if she's going to think I'm her boyfriend after one date, then maybe it's not a good idea." The boy was starting to think that talking to Elliot was a mistake.. or maybe it was a good thing to know all this now.
"Oh no.. I had an idea. But I'm beginning to think it's more trouble than it's worth." Although now he sorta wanted to go out with Cora even more.. kinda like when you tell somebody they can't have something and that makes it even more appealing. Ethan straightened the things in his messenger bag and slung the strap over his shoulder. The boy was clearly annoyed.

Elliot had to hold in a laugh...wow. She had really made him..angry? Hehehe. She found it pretty amusing. Also a little....annoying. "I'm just looking out for a friend. Relax, Pretty boy," she rolled her eyes. She shifted her scarf on her head and let her gaze look beyond him, at the snow...waahh. It was cold...she shivered and looked back at Ethan..
She then raised an eyebrow..."Do what you want, Ethan. It's YOUR love life...but.." she smirked, thinking she knew what this was about..."If you're thinking of Minnie..she's...crazy. She dated Maxwell, you know," her smirk faded. Hmph. "But if you want to be interested in a lunatic puffer...that's YOUR problem...not mine," she said, backing off a bit. Just because she didn't want a ticked off Ethan on her hands...
Though it was amusing her. Maybe she would tick him off another day...see what happens.
Poor bloke.

Despite the Cold weather Lex didn't think she could stay inside the castle much longer. There was nothing to do in there and she was getting boooored. Not the best thing to happen considering she was trying to behave.
Yes.
It was kind weird thinking that she would have to start acting a bit less like herself but she had to accept it or go home. When she thought about it it might not be that bad. Tonnes of people had fun while being good...just uh...none she could think of.
This got her thinking. What did people who were being good do? Their lives just seemed so dull without the added mischief. She didn't want a boring life!! Such a scary thought. It was so scary in fact that it distracted her from looking where she was going and before she knew it she had run right into someone.
Oof. "Umm sorry about that..." Whoever it was.

Why was Bliss outside in this weather? WHY? She should really judge her decisions more carefully in the future, she thought to herself bitterly. It wasn't that she didn't like the outside. It was fact she didn't like the cold much. Now then, don't get her wrong, she loved winter and snow and all of that. BUT. Not today, she wasn't in the mood.
OUCHIE! Okay, there Bliss was, minding her own business, walking down the path and boom! someone had smacked into her. As a result of this she landed on her backside. "Owww!" She moaned and looked up at the assaulter. It was..LEX!
She sat up and grinned at the girl, while wincing at the pain in her back. "Lex!" She said and carefully tried to stand up.

When she knocked into the person she really hadn't expected them to just tip over but as the case seemed to be the person wasn't all that good with balance and coordination.
Seriously, she couldn't have knocked into them that hard.
This already being pre-decided in her head she thought to tell the person just how over dramatic there were being but then she heard the voice. Looking down a smile spread across her face. "Bliss!" She couldn't remember the last she saw her! Oh! But now she actually cared that the person had fallen. "Are you alright? I didn't mean to make you faaaaall."
There were, of course, people she wanted to fall but her friend wasn't one of them! When she saw her trying to get up she offered her hand. "You aren't hurt are you?" She asked. "The area isn't spinning is it? Can you hear me clearly? How many socks do I have on?" It was important to make sure she wasn't suffering from a concussion or something.

Bliss shook her head lightly, trying to clear it. Yep. She was a-okay! No dancing zebras or pink sheep in her mind at all. Ok. Now there was, but there wasn't before. She saw Lex's face give clear reignition and she grinned, glad that the girl remembered her. They'd only met twice, from what Bliss could remember. Once in Diagon Alley and once on the train to Hogwarts, before it broke down. "I'm fiiine," Bliss assured Lex with a smile. "I wouldn't normally have fallen over, I just wasn't concentrating I guess." She said with a shrug.
Gratefully, Bliss accepted Lex's hand and let herself be helped up. Once she was firmly back on her feet, she dusted herself off and returned her attention to Lex. "No. I'm fine," Bliss assured Lex, again. She laughed lightly at Alexa, but answered her questions all the same. "No, the area is completely stationary. Yes, I can hear you clearly. Urmm, two..probably." She said, laughing once again. Most people wear two socks, riiiight?

Alexa sighed in relief when the girl assured her that she was fine. "Thank Merlin--and again I really am sorry." She felt like she couldn't apologize enough. This had to be the worst weather to fall on your bum in. She was lucky she didn't get permanently frozen to the ground after such a drop!
How would she have gotten her up then...?
Lex didn't even want to think about it. While Bliss went through the little checklist she had just given her Lex made a note of all the positive answers. "Good. Good. Almost right--but still good!" BEAM and with that she moved her robe aside revealing three different pairs of socks on each foot. It was cold okay? Nobody question it.
"So now that you're officially okay..." Yup because Lex had given her the approval; she wasn't hurt anymore, "what are you doing out here?" Not everyone liked walking in the cold.

Gideon smiled, fighting the urge ot chuckle as he pulled away and noticed the condition of Selina's face. Mission accomplished. She liked the gift AND was blushing in response to his words and actions. Not that he had to try too hard to do one thing or the other. It was just the way they effected each other. And after the years they had known each other, both as friends and as a couple, they knew what buttons to push of each other to get the desired reaction. At least most of the time. That was not to say there werent mysteries that each of them still kept to themselves.
"Yer welcome Selina." Ah yes, 'the disaster that was practice' as Selina said herself had been the reason he had chose today to give her the flowers. Not that he bothered to mention that. "Nae...they're not and not because I wouldn't let them. They just need to mature a bit." Okay perhaps admittedly MORE then a bit. And learn how to better handle relationships, not letting them run their lives completely.

Bliss smiled at Lex as she sighed in relief. The poor girl had seemed really scared and nervous. "It's fine, honestly!" She repeated, looking Lex in the eye to make she got the point. She was fine, really. Maybe she'd hurt her bottom at the time, but it was all fine now. Unless her bottom had gone numb or something.
o___O
Well, at least she'd answered the questions right..almost. Bliss raised her eyebrow slightly, but didn't question her. She herself was only wearing two socks, but now her feet her getting a tad cold, so she could totally understand Lex's decision to wear three pairs of socks.
Now that Lex knew that she wasn't at all hurt, it must be true. Obviously. Anyway, back to the question. "I got bored," she said simply and shrugged. Bliss did silly things when she got bored. "What about you? Why are you out and about?" She asked Lex with a teasing smile.

Now that Lex knew that she wasn't at all hurt, it must be true. Obviously. Anyway, back to the question. "I got bored," she said simply and shrugged. Bliss did silly things when she got bored. "What about you? Why are you out and about?" She asked Lex with a teasing smile.
Boredem.
She could totally understand that! It drove her to do a whole lot of stuff more often than she could remember and usually it ended well...just...not for everyone else. Though in her defense anyone under 12 seemed to like what she did when she was bored and when she thought about it that was really the only age group that matter to her anyway so meh, boredom led to great things sometimes.
"Me? Oh I was just trying to keep out of trouble." Maybe she should have explained that. "I can't find anything fun to do inside that won't get me in trouble so I figured taking a walk would do me some good." She said, giving her own shrug. It made perfect sense when you thought about it.
The Stone Gargoyles were starting to look a bit too familiar to her and she didn't want to make it any worse thank you very much.

Gideon smiled, fighting the urge ot chuckle as he pulled away and noticed the condition of Selina's face. Mission accomplished. She liked the gift AND was blushing in response to his words and actions. Not that he had to try too hard to do one thing or the other. It was just the way they effected each other. And after the years they had known each other, both as friends and as a couple, they knew what buttons to push of each other to get the desired reaction. At least most of the time. That was not to say there werent mysteries that each of them still kept to themselves.
"Yer welcome Selina." Ah yes, 'the disaster that was practice' as Selina said herself had been the reason he had chose today to give her the flowers. Not that he bothered to mention that. "Nae...they're not and not because I wouldn't let them. They just need to mature a bit." Okay perhaps admittedly MORE then a bit. And learn how to better handle relationships, not letting them run their lives completely.
Mature a bit? That was the understatement of the year. Selina felt as if this year so far, the thing that had been fueling her practices were petty romantic notions of young teenagers. She understood that they were all starting to make it to that age, but she always warned everyone to keep it off the Pitch and they had done the opposite of that. They had come parading their problems on the Pitch and it made the redhead's eye twitch.
So she put her head in her hands and ran her finger's through her hair, "They need to mature now. We have a game tomorrow and Slytherin is really good this year. If they don't pull it together we are going to lose. You and I both know that. And I can't have them trying to maime each other on the Pitch. It isn't healthy." Especially Anya and Penelope. Honestly, she had expected more from the pair of them. They had been best friends for two years and they were letting a BOY get in between them. It was really sad. No boy was ever worth a best friendship, especially not at their age.
Part of her really wanted to sit the two girls down and have them talk it out. They needed to talk it out. This was getting bad and now that people were getting hurt, Selina's patience was wearing thin. Also, while she was at it she was going to lock Keller and Tag together in a room so they worked out their problems. She couldn't have this go on anymore. They needed to work together if they were going to play well.
Elliot had to hold in a laugh...wow. She had really made him..angry? Hehehe. She found it pretty amusing. Also a little....annoying. "I'm just looking out for a friend. Relax, Pretty boy," she rolled her eyes. She shifted her scarf on her head and let her gaze look beyond him, at the snow...waahh. It was cold...she shivered and looked back at Ethan..
She then raised an eyebrow..."Do what you want, Ethan. It's YOUR love life...but.." she smirked, thinking she knew what this was about..."If you're thinking of Minnie..she's...crazy. She dated Maxwell, you know," her smirk faded. Hmph. "But if you want to be interested in a lunatic puffer...that's YOUR problem...not mine," she said, backing off a bit. Just because she didn't want a ticked off Ethan on her hands...
Though it was amusing her. Maybe she would tick him off another day...see what happens.
Poor bloke.
Ethan watched Elliot carefully as he took a couple deep breaths. He was starting to calm down a bit.. but he was fairly certain that she was now going to aim a couple hexes his way after his little tirade. The boys eyes traveled from the girl's wand arm to her face.. wait, was she amused? He blinked a few times.. okay, maybe he overreacted. And now he felt bad. But only just a little. "Fair enough.." he started. "But I thought I was your friend too.." Yeah, he got that it was different when it came to girls.. but he was still somewhat hurt that she felt the need to resort to the words that were said.
Shrugging that pesky little feeling away, Ethan tilted his head slightly to look at Elliot as she spoke. Minnie, hm? If the boy was honest with himself, he'd admit that his mind had gone there.. Was that what Elliot was worried about? That if he went out with Cora and someone else caught his eye that she would be hurt? That was the very reason he did not want to jump into anything.. because he wasn't sure. What was the harm in finding out who he wanted to spend time with? Eh.. and now this conversation had left him as confused as ever. He didn't want to have to pick just one.. at least not yet.
Ethan let out a small laugh of derision. "Yeah, I know all about her and Maxwell..." Including his apparent jealousy and he rolled his eyes at the thought. "She's not a lunatic," he said softly as he looked down at a spot on the ground and let out a sigh. "I just wish you two could get along," he added with a look back up at her.
And now he felt all weird.. and awkward.. again. Eh..

The prefect watched as Selina seemed to mull over his words, though as she ran her hands through her hair it appeared more as an indication that the stress was back. So much for trying to cheer her up, it looked like now he was to listen and let his girlfriend air her feelings. The older Gryffindor slipping into his role as sympathetic listener as the redhead speoke once more.
"Aye, I do," Gideon agreed with a nod. "And they could surprise ye and play their best when it matters most." What was that old adage...bad dress rehearsal good show? Or something like that, he wasn't a theater buff. He wished he could offer a promise that it would work just like that, but all he really could do was offer some kind of weak assurance to her fears. And when it came right down to it...would any of them be so willing to let their team and house down for such foolishness as they displayed earlier?
Gideon would like to think he could trust them better then that. That he and Selina and Kurumi and those who came before had instilled a bit more responsibility and house pride into the younger lions. Time would only tell however. "Too bad its a little late for a nice potion to cool them all off...eh minha lua?" There was a touch of jest to try and ease the tension Selina still appeared to hold within herself, his nickname for her added on the end to add his support.

ooc: minha lua = my moon
"They could," Selina smiled. Yeah, Gideon was right. They were really awesome players. They would pull it together at the last minute because, well, that had to. She trusted them to do their duty to their house. It just stunk that they were all fighting right now. The disappointment was a little overwhelming, though.
Rubbing her temples, Selina shook her head at Gideon,"No, they're good kids. The best kids. I adore them all; it just makes me sad that they can't always get along. Especially since they are ALL so talented and such good friends. We've never had a team this close, not since Carter was Captain." And Selina really loved this team. She didn't want to be upset with the way that they were acting because in many ways she was being unfair. They were all so young and were just starting to get involved in relationships. It was a stressful transition and here she was being upset with them. The last thing she wanted to do was have them be mad at her because she loved them all like little brothers and sisters, but she was stressed.

"Relax...I was just teasing," Gideon assured her as Selina shook his head at his idea. The quidditch captain defending her team and hopefully realizing what she herself was saying. Connect what she knew about them to what he was saying and be more at ease about the possible outcoming if the match the following day.
"Such good friends...almost like a family and the occasional family spat is gonna happen." His own home could get interesting at times especially when all 4 adults were in residence along with Kacie. "I'm sure it will blow over soon enough." And if it didn't a certain seventh year was going to have a veeeeery long talk with each and every person involved and make them see how they were effecting not only themselves but others who were more innocent bystanders then participants.
"Come...I think we need to go and do or talk about something completely diffferent. Else ye wont be playing yer best worrying over everything else." He slipped an arm around her and moved to guide her in some sort of absent direction.

His little comment about teasing opened her eyes a tad. He had someone gotten her to realize exactly what he had known all along- that they WERE GOOD kids. What had happened today was not the most mature way to behave to a stressful situation, but they would all get past it because they were friends. Friendship was sort of an eternal thing, especially for Gryffindors. No matter what the other person did, they always found it in their hearts to forgive. Compassion was something that Gryffindors understood and all of her ickle lions would eventually make up because they were LIONS.
She laughed at his brilliance and gave him a quick hug, "Thank you for being you. I really needed someone to knock some sense into me. And you did." He always was there to catch her when she feel into her pit of melodrama. It was as if was always on the look out to be her protector. Huh. The whole knight in shining armor thing made sense now.
But when he asked if they should leave, she nodded. It was getting a tad cold out anyway and they had a game tomorrow, "Yeah, we should go... Common Room maybe?"
Melanie watched as a white mist thingy came out of her mouth when she breathed. She readjusted the hat on her head before sneezing. Yup, it was definitely winter. She had been so excited for winter, but now she could definitely do without it. The Gryffindor didn't even know what inspired to take a walk today... she was tired and wanted a nap but it wasn't exactly fun sleeping in a sleeping bag. At least, not unless you were camping...
Plus, she didn't have her teddy bear so it made things worse.
She was bored too. Maybe she should just turn around go back inside and go get noodles.

All covered up in layers, Renesmee and her pygmy puff, Puffles wondered around Hogwarts in dire need of a break from the Great Hall and the sleeping bags. There was no particular direction as to where she wanted to go, so she just walked and walked following her little fluff ball's lead. He seemed to have liked being in the front, and Nessie didn't mind this as long as he didn't cause any chaos like he did at times.
If only it was a little bit warmer.
The cold, was one of the things Nessie despised most. The only thing she did like about it though was the snow, and maybe a nice cup of hot chocolate too seeing as that was her favorite drink after all. Besides that, there was nothing she liked about the cold weather. She preferred summer over it any day. Still even through the cold she continued through the corridors now almost by the courtyard, when she spotted a younger looking student.
At first she didn't take too much notice, but then Puffles began darting off towards the younger girl and began nibbling on the girls shoe.
Attention seeker he was, in Nessie's opinion. With a small sigh, Ness headed closer towards the girl.

Melanie let out another sneeze. Ach. She hoped she wasn't getting sick or anything... that would be horrible. Melanie hated getting colds and she never got them often either. The girl sneezed again. Crossing her fingers, she really hoped she wasn't-
What was that thing?!
Melanie stopped walking and stared at the ball of fluff in front of her. It was actually really close to her shoes. Or her cousin's shoes. She had borrowed them but forgotten to return them. Really, she ought to do that. Melanie bent down, squatting, and stared at the furry creature. What was it? Why was it so fuzzy? Was it a bunny? She was about to reach out her hand to pet it before she realized what the thingy was.
And it wasn't a bunny.
Standing up quickly, she took a giant step back. Achooooo.
"GET RID OF IT!!" Melanie exclaimed, flailing her arms and moving closer to the wall of the corridor. The pygmy puff would stick its tongue up her nose and eat her snot! And if the the thing belonged to a Slytherin... it would eat her! "PYGMY PUFF ALERT! PYGMY PUFF ALERT!!" Melanie continued to flail, not taking her eyes off of the creature. If she did... it would attack. And she'd be in its tiny stomach!!!

Erm? What happened to people thinking pygmy puffs were harmless?
Renesmee began walking faster towards the Puffles and the younger girl, a little confused as to why she seemed so frightened. He really wouldn't harm the younger girl. He was just a pygmy puff and only so much smaller than her. "He won't hurt you, don't worry."
Now right beside Puffles Nessie leaned down to pick him up, but before she could even touch him he ran off again.
Sniff. Sniff. Sniff.
The indigo fluff ball could smell something gooey and according to him tasty. he wanted to get closer to the smell, and now that he knew it was coming from the older girl he headed her once again, only to realize she was backing away again.
So this girl wanted to play Tag?
Puffles was more than happily in. The purple ball of fluff chased after the girl and finally reached her shoe again. "Meep! Meep! Meep!" In other words, Tag you're it!
