What in Merlin's Beard? Term 32, 2078-2079
 
http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...rlinsbeard.jpg


A bit confused about the plot? Housemates talking about a mysterious something going bump in the night? Here's where you can catch up on happenings around the Castle, Diagon Alley, and Hogsmeade -- out of character, of course.

This means that unless your student character heard this stuff from other students or witnessed the actual event, your student character doesn't know about it.

Also, this is a reminder to everyone to only post updates on the school plot here. Please do not post the happenings of your student character in here - that kind of chat goes in the school chat thread.

Have fun!

It seems that the Board of Governors might be playing a big role this term...? Intriguing.

Article with more details found at the wonderful Daily Prophet


I'm up for anything that involves more Lainey, personally.

EDIT: It seems they are all playing here if ya'll would like to do some stalkin' :shifty:

CABS ARE HERRRRREEEE


I mean trains....

Well.. what's wrong on the train? :blink:

Does the train appear to be losing speed, or is that just your paranoia?

As a follow up to the post above, the train has now come to a complete stop.

And.. Why Armen Recard, Head of Departmet of Magical Transportation appeared suddenly at Outside of the TRAIN? :whaa:

A man became visible in the tall grass beside the stationary Hogwarts Express and when the moonlight shown on his face it was easy to tell that it was none other than Armen Recard, the Department Head of Magical Transportation. The man stode along the train for a second, looking into the dark windows, wondering who would be looking back at him but stopped in search of that firey red hair.

lazykitty 09-01-2012 06:35 AM
And it appears that the students will be headed to Hogwarts via PORTKEY!

Excited once more by that prospect, he disapperated and came back to his location beside the train, a sack of PORTKEYS thrown over his shoulder--a much skinnier form of Father Christmas.

Now where had Truebridge gone?
*feels bad for everyone that's asleep right now*

BanaBatGirl 09-02-2012 04:54 AM
The portkeys led to the Hogsmeade station platform. After the platform, there are boats for the firsties and carriages for the secondies on up.

Once everyone arrives at Hogwarts, the feast can truly begin. ;)

Our dear new headmistress, Anastasia "Bunz" Truebridge, has spoken:

"Greetings, students, professors, and visitors. Welcome to, or back to, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I am your new Headmistress, Anastasia Truebridge." The Headmistress flashed a brilliant smile at all the eyes focused on her.

"This year, as you have surely noticed, brings a great many changes to Hogwarts. We have new staff members in our midst, myself included; new students, and new student leaders as well. Please welcome your peers with open hearts and allow me to take a moment to welcome our esteemed guests back to Hogwarts."

She looked to the Board, who knew to stand when their names were called. "Joining us at the feast tonight is the Hogwarts Board of Governors. Board President and former Headmistress Cassandra Rae-Branxton; Board Vice President and former Professor Anjelica Lainey; Board Secretary and Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magica Ian Amoroso; and Board Treasurer and Three Broomsticks Owner Harold Lagerty. Please welcome these wonderful guests, who make the funding and running of Hogwarts a possibility, with a round of applause."

Anastasia waited for the students to greet the board appropriately and, in the meantime, snagged a drink of water.

Edit...Continuation

Quote:
She would have invited them to sit with the students, but that wouldn't really be proper, having elves at the table and all. So instead, Annie flicked her wand into her hand and quickly levitated the plant away from the elves' tired arms and onto her side of the table. She settled the plant into a spot near her chair, but no so close that it would get knocked off if somebody scooted back, and then continued on with her speech. Better finish it before something ELSE happened this evening.


"Now then, warm welcomes aside, I have a few start-of-term notices to give out. First, I'd like to thank everyone for their cooperation during the... train incident earlier." Anastasia's speech and expression took on a serious, authoritative tone. "Such an abnormality occurs only once a blue moon, and I assure you, students and staff, that no more abnormalities will occur under my watch and tenure as the Head of Hogwarts. I will do my personal best to ensure the safety and education of all students at Hogwarts remains protected at all times. You should all always feel safe and welcome at Hogwarts while you call it your home, and even after you graduate and find yourself a new home.

"Second, I plan to work closely with the Board of Governors in a more symbiotic relationship than prior history dictates, and I also plan to make some changes around Hogwarts that will hopefully benefit all who are effected by this esteemed school of magic." She smiled congenially, confidently at this part and raised her hands in an open arms gesture. "And finally, with all that has been said and done this evening, I would like to invite you to dig in to the feast that has been painstakingly prepared for us by the wonderful Hogwarts House Elves. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns for me, please come to my suite on the second floor after the feast."

There. Now they could eat, for as Headmistress Truebridge lifted her hands, the food Pips, Beezley, Toddles, and the other elves had prepared magically appeared on all five of the Great Hall tables.

Well, the house elves are making their way around the Great Hall with something PINK for the Headmistress

"Is the leaves bothering the elvsies? Pips can readjust the scary plant leave for his fellow elvsies, he can." Pips could touch the scary plant leaves for the elvsies if he needed. "Pips is also proud of Toddles for being a big and good elfsie. He would have to get Nimma to give Toddles that treat for being so well behaved.

He grabbed hold of the heavy pink plant once more and began to heave it towards the table dressed in red. "Elvsies must get to Headmistress with red Hair quickly if they want to deliver pink plant on time. Elvsies must iron their ears extra hard tonight."
and now have finally made their way to the staff table

Now to give the big, scary, leafy plant to Missus Truebridge. Beezley could hear talking, and Beezley didn't want to interrupt. Missus Truebridge seemed as scary as fire, she did. Fire, just like her bright, red hair.

The elf cleared her throat as she stopped in front of the big table.

No one spoke, not Pips, not Nimma, not Beezley, no one. So Toddles did.

"SPECIAL DEWIVERY!!!" There, that was that. Head lady wasn't still talking was she?



Now the plant was getting heavy and giving Toddles a headache so the baby elfsie snuck out from underneath it without the other elfsies seeing him and scurried under the table to look at all the pretty shoes. Toddles was told he couldn't wear shoes but his feet got cold, they did.

One in particular caught his attention they were VERY wet. Yucky. Toddle looked at them and slowly climbed up one tall leg and then the other. Suddenly his baby elf head popped up over the table as he SAT IN PROFESSOR LAINEY'S LAP.

"You're all wet Misses, want Toddles to help?" he slooooowly raied part of his pillowcase and wiped her cheek ever-so-gently-like. Big baby House Elf eyes.

"I is Pips and these is Beezley and Toddles and Nimma and Tippin. The elvsies is late and we is sorry. We is ironing our ears extra hard tonight, we is."

hiccup.

"Is Headmistress with red Hair upset with the elvsies?" He asked, going into a hiccuping fit. He looked up at the big hoomans at the table and hiccuped several more times. "We is very sorry. We hope Headmistress with Red Hair is forgiving us."

.. And where had Toddles gone?! Into a mistress' LAP?!

"Toddles! Toddles mustn't bother the Mistress or Pips and Nimma is taking away Toddles' snack, they is!" he warned sternly. "Pips says toddles must get off Mistress now!"

But anyway, they were still being interruptive. They were naive and unaware of the going-ons of the feast, but.... they couldn't just stay here and listen, could they? Anastasia glanced toward the people at her table and noted that the adorable baby elf had crawled up to Lainey's lap and was currently drying off her face.

Awwwwwwwwwwww. Well why not. They should stay, if only to provide amusement for dinner. "No no, Pips, don't be sorry. Thank you for the plant." Her smile came back and she gestured for the elf to deliver the plant up to the table where Cassandra had indicated it could go.



"Scary plant?" Annie echoed the little pink elf who'd just spoken to Cassandra. "It's not scar--- know what, Beezley, I'll just take that off your hands, mmkay? You and Pips can sit on the edge of the dais, if you'd like, and I'll come visit with you once I finish my speech. Will that be okay?"

Late to the party, but I like to make sure everything is archived :whistle:

The Headmistress and BoG are having a tour starting from HEEERRREEE

Hogsmeade is now open for the weekend!


--------

Please note, OOC, that it will be open for ~a week RL time, and that ALL student, Ministry, DA, and other RP characters are now allowed in the village, so long as they are listed somewhere in your profile.

Have fun! If you have questions, read the Information post first. ;)

She was a Ravenclaw and shouldn't have to answer any stupid riddles to get in anyways!

She floated around the room eavesdropping on the conversations and shaking her head up and down to signal if she approved of the conversation or not. She hovered just above their heads with her arms crossed loosely in front of her.
As talkative as ever.

Hogwarts ghosts apparently got bored of floating around the Common Rooms and have taken to disrupting classes. What's it going to be next? as if worms everywhere are not enough

Zooming out from his spot in the trees he made his presence known.

"FIRE!

THE CRABS ARE ON FIRE! EVERYONE RUN! SAVE YOURSELVES!"

Flying around their heads he spotted a jar of dirt... and worms.

PERFECT!

"HAVE NO FEAR, PEEVES IS HERE! HE'LL PUT OUT THOSE FIRES!" Or maybe just feed the crabs.

Swooping down he snatched up the jar FULL of creepy crawlies and started dumping them all over the place. Worms were everywhere! On the ground, tables... on the students, in their hair, slithering down their backs...

Ascending up through the second floor ceiling his head popped up into the middle of a sandy room full of students rather than through the accustomary wall.

Nicholas rose slowly from the sand and blinked around at the student's that scampered out of the way. He hadn't meant to spook them.

Wonder what makes her rub it so much, especially when she seems upset? :hmm:

From wayyy tooo many years of experience, sometimes themes crop up through lessons etc. that are related to the school plot. With this in mind, we have to consider Divination and Potions' recent lessons.

So, I am conspiring that DREAMS may be an important theme to watch out for...

EDIT - It also seems as if Bunbury is interested in dreams too.

In fact, all of the large, rectangular, wooden tables.... seemed to have disappeared. Completely.

Food would soon appear on the floor, so students would just have to make do without proper seating... at least until the tables are found...

All of the wooden tables in the Great Hall are missing ??!!! :whaa: Where did they go? :hmm:

Leeness 10-03-2012 05:46 PM
Popping some Divination posts in here that may also be relevant. Bunbury has mentioned several times previously about her fear of ghosts in the likes of the Entrance Hall and stuff, so just to point out that consistent theme also.

A ghostly thief who likes to steal furniture and jewelry!

So there is a chance we may be dealing with an ex-Ikea employee. BY JOVE! I think we've GOT it!

Callie was waiting for the Headmistress to continue when none other than Elijah Wilde spoke up, suggesting that she had stolen the brooch--the exact thing she was worried the red head thought.

"Mr. Wilde, I have stolen nothing!" The blonde semi-shouted at him, her face turning pink. She turned to the Headmistress, placing her hands on her chest, pleading that the woman understand her. "I never even knew it was missing until Tinka showed up, I swear. Why would I ever steal from you, Mrs. Truebridge?" She was going to kill that Puff.

She looked at him with narrowed eyes. She would take 300 points from him if he got her fired and then probably do her best to get him expelled but that was to be figured out later. "I assume you are working on your assignment, I want a parchment at the end of class to see that you've been working and not just lolly-gagging around."

The Headmistress didn't seem too worried about the Hufflepuff child at the moment because...she had a dream that she wanted Elwood to interpret? Really? That was odd. "Of course..um, come have a seat--" but before she could offer her the armchair she had been sitting in before, the woman had pulled her off to a corner and began right away whispering the contents of the dream.

Professor Elwood nodded here and there and took notice of the facial expressions that were present as Anastasia related the events. They were all pretty firghtened or worried looking but still. When she was finished, Callie placed a tentative hand on the woman's shoulder. "It will be alright, we will find your brooch. Does it have any specific syntamental meanings?" that could effect the dream too. She just couldn't get over the oddness that the brooch was actually missing when the Headmistress woke up.

"What I can take away from your dream is this talk about the forest being on fire," she paused as she organized her thoughts, "It presents conflicting ideas of pleasure and happiness and then loss and confusion. Perhaps you, subconsiously are happy to be rid of the brooch or someone close to you feels that way?" She knew that that would sound crazy to the woman who had been frantically search the castle with her own private House Elf army but that's what the dream said to her. "The door represents things like secrets and of course locked areas, the brooch may be where it is locked away, somewhere where you cannot reach it." And the last bit, the part that had caught her right off the bat was the eeiry green smoke and flames.

She took a quick breath before continuing. "The green smoke...it um, usually means a spector of some sorts." she let that hang out in the air, and for the woman to reply. That last bit was never good news.

The redhead's mouth popped open just a bit, in something of a gasp as what the Hufflepuff said drifted her way. MERLIN'S BEARD, it could be true! Elwood was half-gypsy anyway, right? And weren't gypsies KNOWN for their thieving and scheming and crystal ball fortune-telling?!?



She shook her head and refocused on the gypsy diviner, listening closely to her interpretation of the dream.

"Nnno...." she shook her red head nervously. "I mean, I... it's sentimental to me. To me, it represents all my work and life in Egypt, wwwith Ethan.... but it's not a f-f-family heirloom or anything...."

Yeah, it wasn't VALUABLE ENOUGH TO STEAL, ELWOOD. In other words. And back to the dream.... Annie didn't like the interpretation she was getting here.

"You're making it sound like the brooch is lost forever!" she pouted, not very quietly, when the woman was finished. "No, I'm NOT glad it's lost. If I were GLAD it was LOST, why would I be searching for it right now?!" And she pointed to poor Tinka, who was still in the room, bless her little elf heart.

The worst part of Elwood's lame explanation was at the end. Annie's eyes grew wide with authentic terror, and clapped her hands on the other woman's shoulders. "A SPECTOR or some sorts? A SPECTOR?" She started trembling as she released Calista, trembling up and down her arms and almost starting to weave like she was going to pass out.

"Lllike a gghost? That kkkind of ss...ssss....sp..." She couldn't even say it. "Ssspeector??!?!"

sweetpinkpixie 10-03-2012 09:45 PM

He picked up chairs and threw them against the wall causing them to splinter on contact. He upended tables and ripped the magazines into tiny little pieces and threw them into the air like confetti. Satisfied with the destruction he had caused, he disappeared through the wall.
