"I'M HERE" Merlin. Blue wanted to win this thing.. "Let's win this thing." Quidditch players' did want to win after all. Whatever it was. He looked over to see who was in charge. Alice. Okay. Who was going to go up against them? |
"'SUP BLUE. And Nigel." Alice paused in her non-laughter at the runners to wave and beam back at the two Ravenclaws approaching her station. "You guys partners? You just have to tie your legs together and then you can start. Or I can stick you together with a charm, either way." Look at her, being a GOOD monitor and helping out people and stuff. Headmistress would be proud. Also, didn't Oakey look funny? This beet stuff actually wasn't horrible. |
"Nigel? It's super important you don't let me down because I have a bat that gave a girl a concussion." She said very sweetly and innocently. With wide brown eyes and everything. Just some food for thought, Nigel. Blue raised her left hand for a high-five, grinning. "You ready? Then let's do this thiiiing." It'd be simple. Why Theo and Cassia were having so much trouble Blue had absolutely no clue whatsoever. Blue grinned and did that cool thing where she pushed up her sleeves and raised her chin up, almost like a backwards nod, at Alice in a second greeting. "Will you charm us? I don't want to have to worry about the tie falling off or anything." Like getting tempted to run away and steal victory for herself. Cough. |
Quote:
SPLOOSCH! SLIP! SPLASH! Goo went in every direction and Oakey fell backwards on his back, laughing. |
Was Blue threatening Nigel with a bat? Alice stifled a snicker and tugged her wand out of her back pocket, adjusting their positions first. "Stand still and don't move your legs unless you want something other than them stuck," she instructed before casting the sticking charm on them. Had that worked? Pulling their legs apart seemed to be like a good way to test it, so she attempted without result. Excellent. Look at that, see? First try. She tied a cloth around them anyway, just in case it was weak or wore off or something. "Okay. Ready? .. 'kay, GO." They could start now. |
Sigh, What was it the beaters threatening people with their bats. Though Nigel did take it to heart he did not want to lose as much as Blue did. Plus he had the incentive of try not to get hit with a bludger bat. "I do not want to get hit with a Bludger's Bat." Nigel said nodding Nigel brought his left leg so it was touching Blue's right. Now for the charm. Nigel waited until Alice finished casting the charm. Hmm. Feels weird. Then the cloth wrapped around their legs. Now they were ready. Once Alice said the word go. He turned to Blue and said. "Let's take this slow at first. Since it is pretty dark." Ravenclaws did have to use some logic. Nigel took a couple steps toward with Blue and felt something on his feet. "Blue. Do You Feel That on your feet also?" It did not feel very nice. |

Oh! Oakey had a suggestion! Yep! hopping across sounded epic and the idea had her bouncing and positively distracted. So distracted that she missed his signal and therefore the HOP. It didn't occur to her until his falling caused her to lose balance and she fell right over with a SPLOOOOSH!. Now this stuff was in her hair and on her clothes. "COOOOOL--this stuff comes up right?" It had to. Everything came off with something. No need to worry. She was there wiggling in the slime until she got to her feet at which point she tried pulling up the laughing Headboy. "Come on! Come on! Come on!!! Hopping!! We're hopping to the end , let's gooooo!!!!" She gave another tug but lost balance and fell right back down. This called for poking. She jabbed him in the side with her finger. "Help me up pleeeease?" |
Quote:
The fourth year tapped her toe as Alice cast the charm and tied the cloth around their legs. The event was cool. First time this term Blue was actually happy to spend money. Because it was actually worth it, surprisingly enough. "Okay. You move our leg first and then the separate one." Going slow was for the weak but clearly Nigel wanted to get a whack so she'd take her time and then pick up her pace towards the end. She took the step and squelch. "EUGH. What IS that?" And then she did the incredibly non-Ravenclaw-slash-non-smart thing to do and lifted up her right foot, which also happened to be the foot she was sharing with Nigel. |
SPOILER!!: Gooey Lexi Oakey slowly kneeled down onto one knee careful not to slip and took his wand out. Giving it the wand movements he attached his and Alexa's legs together a little better. The knot she made with the clothe seemed to be loosening with the goo. "Yes M'Lady" Oakey saluted Alexa leaving a nice smear of goo on the bangs of his hair, and took her hand. Trying his best not to let it slip through his grip he clenched onto the sleeve of her shirt and hoisted her up. "yeah this stuff will come off, give it two days though just to be safe." Oakey was going to take a quick leave then come back in a different outfit after this run with Alexa, maybe go grab Daichi by the collar of his shirt and drag him to the station too. "Alright okay. We'll hop, why don't you start the count this time, so we stay in unisen. I'll pay attention." This was some GOOd old fashioned fun right here. |
Quote:
Nigel was just about to say forget about it and move on. But Blue did something Nigel would never have expected and raised the shared foot. "NO, NO, NO, NO." Nigel had lost is balance. SPLOOSH Ugh, He had fallen right into the stuff. It was disgusting. Great. Now he was making a habit of falling into thing. First getting pushed into the fountain and now this. Now he was definitely getting hit with Blue's bat. |
Quote:
Slowly she began smiling again. Very slowly. She was still getting over the initial shock but now she supposed she could add him to her list of safe casters. It consisted only of people she was confident wouldn't get her blown up trying to perform a simple spell. There weren't many people on that list. Now she was distracted by the talk of leaving her clothes for a few days. No problem. She was in no rush to try that had washing thing again. No thanks. SO, hopping!! "OKIE DOKES!!!" She got to lead the count. It was better than following it. Nodnodnod. "On three. One...two...three!" Hop. Hop. Hop. You can do it Oakey!!! |
Quote:
And hopping he went with Alexa.. SPLOOSH! Oakey almost lost his balance on the first jump but had to regain it quickly as Alexa was still hopping along SPLASH the Goo went up and behind them right in the direction of both NIGEL and BLUE. That totally wasn't intentional at all. In the amusment of sending Goo back towards the Claws Oakey missed Alexa's third jump and slipped face first into the goo, taking the Gryffindor with him. |
He's here , he's here. Don't bit his head off please. He had been caught up talking to a friend. Yes he still had friends here shush! back at the seating area buuuut he was here now. Did he want to be here? No, because he had far more important things to do like going back to the forest and give the place hugs and ice cream. The forest needed him more than this event! When he reached his destination he noticed that they had already begun and he froze a little. HE HAD HIS GOOD BLAZER ON! Juliet even called it DASHING! Could he refuse if someone wanted to be his partner? "Hey all, sorry i'm late" Well, he could always take off the blazer right? |

SPOILER!!: Cassiaaaa Theo really wasn't enjoying this. And sure, the event didn't say anything about fun, it was called the 'fright fest' and Theo did NOT like being frightened, so... why was he here again? He guessed that it would look kinda wimpy if he just locked himself in the dorms on a Saturday evening when STUFF was happening. He didn't need Oakey to have another reason to call him Wimpy Theo, so he WOULD leave this race alive and very much not crying. Was she gonna just stand there all day?! The Slytherin looked over his shoulder only to find her GRINNING at him. He was shocked, he really was. "Hey! I hope you're not looking at my butt." Cos butts were kinda funny... and awkward. Anyway, he hoped she wasn't looking at his butt. And he wasn't GREEN. He had this totally under control..... but seriously, help right now would be appreciated. Theo nodded, "Okay okay... do it quickly." Because his arms were getting weaker and weaker, and they were starting to wobble! Finally she was pulling... or falling backwards, and Theo managed to push his hands off the ground until he was standing. He grabbed hold of Cassia before she went toppling over, too. Good friend here. And it was also nice to wipe some of the goo onto Cassia's shirt without being too obvious. Nothing to see here, nooooope. "This isn't as easy as I thought it would be." No kidding. Once they were standing properly again, Theo lifted his free foot until it was completely out of the goo, then placed it gently in front of him. That was the only way this was going to work. Slowly and one foot at a time. SQUEEEEEEEEEELCH. |
Text Cut: Theo xD More people were joining. Cassia saw Blue and Nigel. She wanted to flail and wave and shout over for them TO NOT come! That it was a trap! Goo! It's goo everywhere. Ooops. Too late. The Ravenclaws were already in. She couldn't feel guilty now, could she? Since she had Theo to help.Speaking of..whaaat! "Umm..No I'm not." She wrinkled her nose but held her tongue because she didn't want to insult him especially being in that position. And Alice watching with such an amused expression. No, she was a good friend so she was going to ignore. Theo's butt. Seriously. How'd she look Dora in the eye then? Fortunately, the procedure in which Theo was able to stand straight had been a success. Though, Cassia was about to flop back herself, but Theo was fast to grab her and help her stand still. "..Th-anks," She said out of breath feeling her heart in her throat. She wasn't afraid of the goo. She was afraid of the public embarrassment. Especially that more people were gathering. But it was good now. She should push the negative thoughts away. "You telling me," She shook her head. They were supposed to have fun. She still was waiting for the fun part, you know? Cassia, paused enjoying the feeling of being standing still not swaying or flailing in midair. She glanced down at her shirt and frowned. "How did my shirt get goo all over it?!" Does it FLY! Then her eyes fell on Theo's hands. Oh, yeah he grabbed her before she fell. Well, that was better than being covered in goo from head to toe. Though she did mutter under her breath something about washing this shirt and all. No time for bickering. As Theo lifted his foot, Cassia followed suit clutching Theo's shirt for balance. The snake looked ahead of them and the corner of her lips curled up a biiiiiiiiiiit. "Not much left...and like we're still alive, good, right?" This was a joke but did her voice sound a little bit pathetic. And only now did she notice Lex and Oakey...? Were they enjoying splashing the goo? Better stay away from them. "Ok, our tied feet on the count of three," She announced. "One...Two...Three," And she lifted her foot slowly. |
Pita Bread! ^_^ So... he wasn't late. Nope. Just really early for the next round, yeah? Yeah, he was going to go with that. Having paid his seven sickles, Alec came to a stop by the starting point of the next fundraiser and stood there awkwardly, looking at the people trying to complete the task. Except... goo! Lots and lots of goo! And it seemed to be coming out of nowhere! ... Sort of. And even if it was coming from something or someone, Alec really couldn't see it so... ... Okay, he wanted a partner too! He wanted to participate too! Bouncing a little on his toes, the sixteen year old looked around, trying to see if there was anyone nearby who looked like they wanted to take part. And... it'd have to be someone near his heigh too, yeah? Because if it was an ickle firstie, he would have a hard time resisting the urge to pick the firstie up and carry him/her to the finish line. ... That was just cheati- MESSY. ... Oh. BIG OH. They could work through things, yeah? Even if all of the problems were in Alec's head right now and he was being very Alec about things. Really, what was wrong with him? ... Oh, yeah... let's not go there. ... But... Messy! They could work together, right? And build bridges or something. "HEY MESSY! I'LL CLEAN THE DORM FOR A MONTH IF YOU PARTNER UP WITH ME!" ... Did that sound too needy? |

Well? Quote:
Mean. Quote:
"You two partners? I can help you guys tie your legs together or stick them together for you with a charm if you haven't got wands." Helpful, she was being it. They probably had wands, though, right? "Also, Superman, d'you know if Oakster's veggie drinks are poisonous?" Seeing as she was drinking one right now and didn't want to die young and stuff. That would be bad. Alice took another sip and just watched him and Messer. Station manning was getting really boring. |
Quote:
Messer was planning to spend the rest of his day in the dorm sleeping or just sitting in the comfy couch in their common room but then he heard people were talking about the Fright Feast. So here he was. The fifth year wondered around the Fright Feast while thinking where to go first but when he passed one of the obstacle, he heard someone was calling his name. Wait. No. Not his name. His nickname and without looking he already knew who called him. Alec. What? What did he say? Clean the dorm for a month? Hmm. Him, Alec and Goo combine together sounds not a good idea but he couldn't resist Alec the Maid for a month. "Sure. Let's partner up." Smirks. Quote:
His attention went from Alice to his roommate "You sure Ella won't mind we tie our legs together?" Grin. Grin. Grin. |
Quote:
Cough. Okay, he was a little excited, which was apparent in the way he grinned widely at his roommate. But... he wasn't going to tell Messy that he was excited about this race. No no no! "Thanks for this, mate!" It had come at quite a price too! The boy's dorm was always really messy. Also, that smirk? Really, Messy? Quote:
"Yeah, we are!" And he hoped that this wouldn't end up pear shaped for them. "You'd do that? Thanks, Hulk!" Since... she was offering and all. Apparently, you don't tell a lady 'no' unless it was for good enough reasons. Or did the Bro Code say something else? ... Alec shook his head and placed his leg right near Messy's. There. Superman! GRIN. "Poisonous?" he asked, letting out a small chuckle. He glanced over at Oakey quickly before looking back at the Gryffindor Captain, still grinning. "Well... Ells has recommended them to us once or twice before a match and we haven't had any symptoms so..." "Is it nice?" he asked, nodding down at the drink she was sipping on. Quote:
If Tag was the Sass King, Messy had to be the Troll King. Really now. Fighting the urge to laugh -- it was a funny comment... maybe -- Alec simply raised his eyebrows at the guy before answering, "I'm sure she'd be okay with the leg tying and the goo. Besides, we haven't worked together in a long time!" |
Quote:
As soon as Nigel was down, Blue followed him. She made a sound that was similar to something like a hiss as she lifted up her hand and shook off the goo. "Eeeeeew." Gag. The more she wriggled and tried to get up the grosser it felt. "ugh what kind of sick weirdo came up with thi --" And then she got a face full of more goo. Right when her mouth was wide open too. Oh. My. Merlin. She spat it out and narrowed her eyes looking for a culprit. It was hard to find because of the stupid torch light but Oakey looked just so damn pleased with himself. Fear the wrath of the bat, Oakey. Fear it. "C'mooon." She rose unsteadily and yanked Nigel up, super serious now. |
Quote:
He could not even think about it. Okay, now he had to stand back up. Which was a lot easier with Blue yanking him to his feet. "Woah". Once on his feet, he felt some goo hit him in the chest. Nigel looked around to see who threw it. But is was still pretty dark. So he must have flick some up at himself. Yeah. "I'm Ready." Nigel was determined not to fall into the goo again. "On the Count of Three.....One..Two..THREE" |
Quote:
"Hi Alice!" BEAM. "We brought you a cupcake." And a THEM, so Alice was super lucky. |
Quote:
Quote:
Second try and counting. She tied a cloth around their calves anyway, just in case it was weak or wore off on them, too. The drinks weren't poisonous? Okay, good. "I dunno. It tastes beet-y." And it was pink. Alice glanced inside her cup again before taking another sip and sticking her wand back in her pocket again. "I can call go for you guys, too, when you're ready." Were they? She watched and waited until they seemed to be. ".. one.. two.. THREEGO." Quote:
Cupcakes were so good. |
Quote:
Quote:
Those were the rules of common decency. Only. "How is this game played?" |
Quote:
"Come on, Cactus, don't bully small people, I'm going to die of starvation any minute." He got Alice's best pathetic hopeful feed me looks as she started jumping some, grabbing for the cupcake again. "You stick one of your legs to Cat's, with a charm or with ties, and run to the finish line. Three-legged race. Cupcake now." He could continue talking to his kissing buddy about tongue colors after she got food, okay? Cupcake. Cupcaaake. |
