Stepping outside into the school grounds the night is dark and the wind whistling is the only sound you hear. The cold breeze does not help much either, better keep warm and close as you walk along a path lighten dimly with fire torches. It is likely you may feel spooked, but fear not, soon you will reach your destination. After walking for a few minutes, you begin to see more than just the forest borders and the surrounding grass. Even though the light is to a minimum, you are still able to see what is before you.
To your right there are round tables with numerous chairs at each. There is a buffet table that unlike the rest of the tables is long and rectangle as well as filled with various baked goods to choose from which includes scary looking foods such as mud cups, assortedcreepy cupcakes, finger biscuits and jello brains. Eat them if you dare, but do remember this food comes at a price. If you do not pay the jar in the center table 5 sickles, you cannot retrieve any food as it will literally be as if it has been glued to the table. So please pay, we do not ask of too much. Right beside these tables you see an open area of grass that has been filled with sitting stands. This is for you to observe the obstacle participants as they attempt their fearlessness at various stations. You are welcome to grab a seat and cheer your mates on.
The obstacle course, that is on the left across from the seating and viewing area, has four different stations; The Bertie Botts Challenge, The Cockroach Cluster Race, The Chocolate Frog Surprise Pie and The Glue-on-Goo. Each just as exciting as the other and they will each test your fear in various different ways. Of course these too are not for free. At each station there is a turnstile that charges you 2 sickles to play, but if you are wise you will notice that there is a fifth turnstile at the entrance to the obstacle course that is for the course as a whole, as well as it charges 7 sickles for all four obstacles rather than 2 per station.
Are you brave enough to take the challenge or are you here to just watch? Whatever you choose, stay fearless and do enjoy.
"Sure! Games games games yayayay," she said. She was more than a little hyper for no reason at all and soon started jumping. She didn't care if people were staring, she was having fun.
Kace loved seeing Mairgold hyper because Kace was hyper too. They shared something in common as well. He didn't care if people were judging them they were gonna have fun. Kace held out his hand and said, "Ready to go Miss. Marigold? I mean i am pretty good at Slime Races." Nothing to brag about or anything.

Marigold took his hand. Promptly to raise her eyebrows. Miss Marigold?
"Now you're a gentleman, eh?" Smirk. Two could play at that game. "Let us race with an addition of slime." Curtsy. She led him out of the room to the slime race.

Awar nodded, "I'd love to!" She waved to the other firstie, "Hello, Marigold! Good to see you!" She looked up at her brother, "I'll be over at the games if you need me, okay?"
Manolo nodding, smirking at the mature tone his sister was putting up. "Be careful, kids." He waved goodbye to the others and immediately proceeded to the buffet table. Finally.

"But I don't think anything here fits that. So may as well go for the sugar." Which was everything, pretty much. But wait, what was that?! Penelope rephrased the question back at her?
"Always," Fina said simply, a small twinkle in her eye. "Always."
Heh. Who was gawking now, hm? Penelope grinned at her professor. And then she seemed to recover, so the fourth year nodded. High protein items, yeah. Like meat and stuff? That would be good, if only there was some of that here. But all that was here cupcakes and biscuits and chocolate and gummy worms and other stuff like that. Not that that was bad either. Just didn't really add a lot of variety to it, so choosing was harder. "So...go for everything basically?" Because everything here was sugar. Heh.
Oh? Hadley was always up to something? She grinned again. "Wanna tell me what you're up to now then?" Or was she just up to looking for food like she was?

Oh hey, and there was Kendall. Seemed like awhile since Penelope had last talked to her. "Hey, Kendall." She smiled. Reaching for the mud cups too, huh? That was a good choice. Those were definitely on Penelope's list of things to eat, along with those jello brains.

She had promised a few friends that she would be here, so Kurumi had managed to pull herself together enough to get dressed and leave the flat for the evening. Studying for finals, writing her thesis, Lewis, living near Selina and Vivi, everything had been an at least semi decent distraction to...what else had been going on. Loss was never something that was easy to handle and the almost university graduate had been dealing with an onslaught of them for what seemed like forever now.
But things were better. They were getting better.
She had left Lewis back at their flat because he had an alchemy study group coming over, which she baked snacks for, and had now arrived at the prefect event. Really though? Did it have to be scary things? Maybe as long as there were no spiders or chocolate frogs near her she would be alright. After giving a small donation - because she would not be participating in any of the events but still wanted to give back - Kurumi made her way towards the seating area on the lookout for some specific people.
Considering her station was a little dead, the red head decided she'd grab a snack. It bummed her out just a little, but hey, the rest of the stations were busy and there were still many people attending which was what she wanted. Hogwarts needed the money more than anything and that was her main hope of succession was.
Blinking a little due to the red contacts in her eyes, the Hufflepuff cautiously made her way to the seating area. Clumsiness was a no, no and these contacts were not entirely comfortable on her eyes which was why she took a little longer than she usually would have. But eventually she got there and she scanned around the long table, already knowing what was there, but looking for one thing in particular and that was mud cups. Having found them, she placed her money in the jar and took one for herself turning around to look at the people there.
Hmmmm...interesting bunch of people, she knew most of them though. But the outsiders she paid extra attention to them, because there were certain people she hoped would be here like maybe Treyen, Mia and....Kurumi...which she had just spotted.
Beam! It had been long.
"Love, love, love your skirt." She nudged the former Gryffindor and smiled.

"Love, love, love your skirt." She nudged the former Gryffindor and smiled.
Kurumi recognized that voice and it brought a smile to her face as she turned around and "KYAAAAAAAA!" she shrieked when she met Nessie eye-to eye. There was a bit of stumbling there as well, but she did not end up tripping over her own feet or anything. Just some light screaming and staring and gawking at Nessie and her RED eyes.
Kurumi's hair maaaaaaaaaaay have turned white as snow from fright, but she was not aware of this either.
Hand on her chest, she took a few deep breaths and could feel her heart pounding against her chest. "S-S-Sorry, Nessie, you just...you just startled me with your, um, your costume." Was she supposed to have dressed up for this? She had sort of missed that memo. Not that she would have had time to change into anything after her internship had ended. She had barely had enough time to head home and have dinner with Lewis before heading back out here.
Calmed down now, Kurumi opened her arms wide a bit. "Come here and give me a hug, Head Girl."

o____________________O? Eh. Did Juliet say something that left him.... speechless and yet only a grin was stuck on his face? Juliet tried recalling, unless if the grin meant about him being busy then that's just about it. However, Juliet just smiled back. Why is she even over thinking this in the first place? Juliet then tug some of her hair and looked at the place. It's the first time that she had to enjoy this at night. The designs are really nice too and the cupcake that she had just finished eating is delightful. The money spent was worth it. Is it possible for her to take one more? She'll pay.
False alarm.
Juliet pouted as Daichi said that he just wanted some. "For a second there, I thought they served ice cream. It would have been nice to have some. I've been wanting to eat since last week" odd thought how she can't stop but want to eat ice cream. "We should have ice cream some other time" she grinned at him.
The signature blush, Juliet smiled even more. Only because it is true. Juliet rarely sees him in anything black so this is quite the change. Just when she was about to respond, Daichi went on rambling over words and then more words. Juliet couldn't help but giggle. Not that she found them funny, it's cute actually. It's just that, she has never heard him like that...... "Thank you" she said gleefully while nudging his shoulder. "It's okay, Prefect" she said saluting to him. Well, kind of just joking around.
do you think i can win a duel?
Juliet blankly stared at him. "With who? I mean...... right now?" her eyebrow raised in confusion. What's going to happen? Is it part of this activity? Or someone has asked to duel with him that will take part next time? Her eyes narrowed as she went closer to Daichi, eyeing him. Is he serious? he sounded serious anyway. As she backed away, Juliet fixed her shirt. "I think any student who reaches the seventh year can win a duel. For starters, people your age can freely use magic any time. And second, it's surprising that you are bringing this up. Who are you going to duel with?" of course, Juliet will always be as curious as ever.

He flashed the woman a BIG TOOTHY GRIN.
"Oh so you're a health nut too. My dad only eats healthy food as well." Something he insisted that his son do also. And while Michael was pretty good at eating properly, he never said no to something sweet or fatty."He says my insides would thank me for it later. Not really sure what that means, but he's my dad..." Mikey shrugged his shoulders.
Parents always thought they knew best.
"Well...er...if I can't get you anything then I guess I'll join the festivities." Unless she wanted him to stay and talk to her.
Health nut? She didn't like being called a nut, but she let it pass as this kid continued to talk about his dad. He was a babbler, wasn't he? Ivy glanced around for a moment, slightly distracted, maybe looking for someone. "Well, he sounds like a smart man." She could give a whole year's worth of classes to talk about organic food, but she wouldn't.
Despite knocking her over, this kid actually seemed pretty decent, she had to admit. Most kids probably would have just ran away. "No, thank you." Ivy made a face that sort of resembled a smile and waved her hand at the kid. "Go have fun."
Mika had been facing towards Forrest - so she noticed the smile. And flailed a bit but, she was in an awkward situation you know - with her friends that didn't exactly get along together talking to her...at the same time.
So she made a point to send Forrest a smile.
"You know, the spider is so good, I'm glad I saw you eating it Forrest - have a nice Fright Fest" she beamed at him and waaaaved before he headed to the games and she turned her attention back to Kaiden and Nash.
He liked her shoes? She raised an eyebrow at him before she glanced down at her mix-matched shoes. ”Thanks, I thought they were kind of funny…and you know something er…cute? To stare at if I got to scared…I didn’t I ugh didn’t know if I’d actually run into you here” she admitted with a big eyed smile.
She was a claw, she prepared herself for being scared today – but not scared with company. She did kind of jump at the way he had said no…okay apparently she wouldn’t eat pie with Kaiden and Nash…but Nash was the school’s pie-guy. He made good pie. And she did want to try it.
Before she could think what was happening he was taking her hand and holding it, but not really holding it. He was moving it, and pressing it into the icing of her cupcake. And licking it…what? Did he really just eat icing off of her finger? And from her cupcake.
”oh, okay…so no pie then” she frowned, mouthed Sorry to Nash and smiled again. And then she shuddered again. ”I can’t believe I’m eating it to be honest,” she admitted as she took her finger and stared at it. Frosting on it. Kind of gross…sure she’d kissed the guy but she wasn’t about to clean it off. Instead what she did was grab a bit of tablecloth (it might have been the back of a passerby’s shirt she didn’t know) and whipped off the spit on it. Much better.
”um…Kaiden, you want to play a game with me?” she asked beaming, “Nash you can join too…but er…I kind of want to try the goo-game…and you know, I don’t know if you would like being tied to Kaiden and I…and I know I wouldn’t want to be caught between a fight. Because I would not let the two of you stand next to each other if my life depended on it.” she admitted sheepishly and smiled, an awkward smile…but she wasn’t going to be rude and not invite the guy standing next to her. Even if she knew things between him and her best mate were troubled at best.
Looking down at the mangled cupcake she just whimpered. Even though she had been eating it – the likeness was too great for her own comfort. Turning her head away and tucking it against her friend’s shoulder she just stood there, sort of half hugging him. Her eyes widening as she saw who was there, standing with a somewhat familiar redhead. “Oh merlin Kaiden…I was going to give you a…um, cheek kiss” she whispered into his ear, “b-but lets wait…because my brother is here….with some former Hufflepuff girl that I never actually met” she whispered out quickly before casually hugging him in a way that made it so she could drop a quick kiss on his cheek. A simple one her brother wouldn't notice. It just looked like a big hug.
Okay, this girl probably thought he was insane. Because he was just standing there staring at some blond girl and her friends like he knew them – which he did…but it wasn’t like Emmaleigh knew this. He chuckled and ruffled his hair a bit as he looked over at her and smiled.
She was cute, and really the eerie lighting worked well with her hair color. But he wouldn’t say that right yet – you look pretty in creepy lighting was something that he imagined the creepy killers of the world used as creep-up lines. He did ruffle his hair some more and shrug glancing back at his sister – who was wide-eyed glancing at him now.
Oh so she had seen him…in a move to not be a creep he waved to her and smiled at Emmaleigh. ”Its my sister,” he admitted with a broad smile, and a slight laugh. ”apparently her friend hadn’t paid for the food and well…he licked her finger…just threw me for a loop” he admitted with a laugh.
Chuckling some more he turned to Emmaleigh and smiled. ”Fancy running into you here,” he chuckled and smiled to her. A bright twinkle to his eye as he laughed a bit ”so I must ask when you were here at Hogwarts did they always have this eerie of lighting?” he asked as he looked around at the eerie torchlight. ”you want some food?” he asked and glanced at the food that was there – none of it looked as pleasingly amazing as say…well anything that honestly didn’t look this creepy. For all he knew it could have been the most delicious food in the entire world. It was just irritably eerie looking.
“They’renotwhat’scute.” He mumbled, the tips of his ears reddening. ”Why would you be scared? So far, he hadn’t seen anything that was actually scary. Just food that looked gross, but that did taste kinda good. And she wouldn’t be scared because he was here right? ”AndIthoughtweweresupposedtobemeeting.” Hadn’t he said he’d meet her at the thing? What other thing did she think he meant?
Kaiden just continued to frown when she said no pie. He hadn’t meant that she couldn’t eat pie with that stupid-face, he just meant he wouldn’t be eating it. He didn’t trust him. But he wasn’t going to tell her those things right now, in front of him. He would just wait till they were alone, or well, not with Nash. “You are strange, you know that? For someone who doesn’t like spiders…. You eating one is strange.” As he eyes the thing, he was sure it had moved just a bit. Could they have been magicked to move?
“A game?” the boy asked, looking around. Oh. They had things over there. “Yeah, sure” he said, giving her hand a small squeeze, because hand, he was holding it, and he liked it. Hand. What he did not like was Miks inviting Nash to come, but he didn’t want to make her angry… So he was just sort of going to ignore that then. “Goo game? Er… sure we can do that I guess.”
Noticing the slight whimper, the fourth year let go of the girl’s hand and put his arm around her shoulder, which made it even easier for him to hug her when she turned towards her. Feeling her stiffen slightly, he asked, “Everything aright?” and then gave a hoarse “Oh,” when she said she wouldn’t kiss him, and that her brother was here. “Which one? The one from the car or thereallyscaryone?” because it was important. But then she hugged him tight, and he returned the hug, pleasantly surprised with the kiss. And worried too, that he had seen it. “You said something about a game? he asked, meaning, lets go now, please.
“Hello.” the red head said smiling at the guy as he ruffled his hair. That staring thing, it was kinda creepy. But the good news was, if this guy did turn out to be a creep, atleast she was somewhere familiar. It was Hogwarts, and even though it no longer felt like home, it was safe. It was always safe… well, except the year there were man eating plants… and the time… okay yeah, but it was safe now.
“That’s your sister?” she asked looking at the little blonde girl. She was tiny, and looked incredibly young. And there didn’t seem to be any family resemblance either, but she wasn’t sure if siblings usually looked alike or not, and the lighting wasn’t helping either. “He licked her finger?” Em asked, looking at the kid who now had his arm around the girl. “He must like her.” Because that sounded like something she would do. She would have no qualms about licking Max’s finger… that thought made her frown, and it made her tummy hurt. She bit her lip, as she gazed in the direction of the quidditch pitch, unable to see anything past the far torches.
“Yeah, fancy.” She said still gazing off into the distance. “Wait!” she said turning back to the guy beside her. “We planned to meet here.” She smiled and gave him a punch in the arm. “That’s for being a flobber worm.” The girl shook her head at the question. “No, not really… Maybe at the death day party but I don’t remember. Its usually really pretty though. And, food sounds okay I guess.” she said moving closer towards the buffet table. Seeing the spider cupcakes she shuddered. ” Or, no, I think I’m good. Not hungry. We should go. From here.” Why? Why would someone make those things?

Sure it was a little odd that this whole thing was really Halloweenish but that was okay with her! The fourteen year old loved Halloween anyway, so it all worked out. Well, maybe she should say that she loved fall, since she could really do without the super creepy stories and things like that - she really just liked the decorations and the snacks. And the leaves turning colors...
Anyway, Eliza was here now, and she was ready to have some fun! Now hopefully she could find something to participate in, or better yet, someone to talk to. She wasn't sure if Ethan or Min would be able to come or not, since she'd heard they'd gotten detention earlier. She especially hoped Ethan could come since he was a prefect and likely helped out with all of this, but she wasn't sure. She was pretty sure she could spot a very energetic Lex running around at the activities, so maybe she'd catch up with her a minute or two, after she scoped out the whole scene here before her.
So for now, her hazel eyes drifted along the crowd, observing all of the people, some of which she'd never seen before. Intriguing...
Health nut? She didn't like being called a nut, but she let it pass as this kid continued to talk about his dad. He was a babbler, wasn't he? glanced around for a moment, slightly distracted, maybe looking for someone. "Well, he sounds like a smart man." She could give a whole year's worth of classes to talk about organic food, but she wouldn't.
Despite knocking her over, this kid actually seed pretty decent, she had to admit. Most kids probably would have just ran away. "No, thank you." made a face that sort of resbled a smile and waved her hand at the kid. "Go have fun."
Yep, his dad was a very smart man. He had his own potion making business and he was sure that he owned other businesses as well, but Mikey wasn't sure what they were because he would rather go and play then listen to the importance of setting yourself up for the future. But he was sure that the Professor did not want o hear all about that.
"Okay then." He said starting off and giving the woman a wave. "It was nice talking to you Professor." Now where was that food? His hunger had returned.
Kurumi recognized that voice and it brought a smile to her face as she turned around and "KYAAAAAAAA!" she shrieked when she met Nessie eye-to eye. There was a bit of stumbling there as well, but she did not end up tripping over her own feet or anything. Just some light screaming and staring and gawking at Nessie and her RED eyes.
Kurumi's hair maaaaaaaaaaay have turned white as snow from fright, but she was not aware of this either.
Hand on her chest, she took a few deep breaths and could feel her heart pounding against her chest. "S-S-Sorry, Nessie, you just...you just startled me with your, um, your costume." Was she supposed to have dressed up for this? She had sort of missed that memo. Not that she would have had time to change into anything after her internship had ended. She had barely had enough time to head home and have dinner with Lewis before heading back out here.
Calmed down now, Kurumi opened her arms wide a bit. "Come here and give me a hug, Head Girl."
With a very, very confused look, the red head just watched her older friend. She couldn't exactly understand what the commotion was all about and for that moment had completely forgotten about the contacts in her eyes. Maybe it was something behind her or who knew? But Kurumi's hair out of nowhere began turning white and all Ness could do was stare even more, this time her eyes widening. Seriously what was going on? Nessie opened her mouth to speak, but before she could Kurumi beat her to it.
Costume, now? Um...okay...more confusion for the badger. Whatever it was, she never really meant to startle Kurumi. "It's okay. Um...I'm not wearing a costume though?" WAIT WAIT. It was the contacts. Right. "You mean my eyes?" She asked with a small pout forming on her cherry-pink lips.
Smile. Kurumi was calm and back to normal, which meant Nessie stopped her wide eyed staring. The Head Girl bit really wasn't necessary, but Ness gave Kurumi a tight squish. She missed her tons. Missed seeing her at Hogwarts most, but life was life. "I'm glad you came, you know? Miss seeing you around on these grounds." Yes. Kurumi needed to know she was missed.

Manolo was thrown aback with this other Puff. Who was this boy calling his sister cute names and giving her loving hugs?? Glare. "Hey..."
His eyes widened. He has found his weakness. Food. He eyed the plate, contemplating whether it was okay or not to take food from a younger person. "No, thanks. I'll get some on my own."
Awar was feeling like Manolo was catching the wrong idea of something, so she stepped closer to Alec, "This is Alec. He's like my older brother away from home. Alec, this my actual brother, Manolo."
His protective older brother bravado disappeared and a giant grin replaced it. OHHHHHHHH. Good, good. He extended his hand, "Nice to meet you, dude. Thanks for taking care of my little sister. Just don't steal her away." Cool Bro wink.
Hugs. Hugs were awesome, weren't they? Alec wrapped his arms around his pseudo-sister and hugged her back, squeezing her a little. "A-okay doesn't sound bad..." he said, letting go of her, "Everything's great with me! Studying's boring but there's always Quidditch and Ells and friends and you!" With that, he reached over and gave her a gentle poke on the nose.
And... dude. Dude person. Alec didn't really know what the look on the older guy's face meant but he was sure that it wasn't exactly a good one. "Oh! Erm... well... I'd recommend the cupcakes, they're really nice!" he said, reaching up a hand to ruffle his hair. Scary dude seemed scary.
... Oh. OH! BLINK. Wait... did the dude think... him and Awar... O_O
Probably not. But it was sort of in the rule of a big brother to be wary of any boy being around his sister, yeah? Alec let out a small sigh of relief at the grin on the older guy's face before grinning back. "Nice to meet you too, Manolo!" he said, shaking the guy's hand, "Oh, it's my pleasure!" Nodnod. ... Chuckle. "It sounds like she's really fond of you so... I don't think I would be able to even if I tried." Not that he really had. GRIN.

Plus he never been to a magical festival before so maybe he was TOO critical.
"But this is my first magical festival though so i wont go SO critical on it." he told Alec.
Wait a minute they had something called the Shrieking Shack? He NEVER heard of it. "Wait what is the shreiking shack?" Kace asked Alec hoping he wasn't too lame for asking.
Alec asked if he was enjoying the brain. Kace took a bite and nodded with jello coming out of his mouth. It looked quite cute as a matter of fact.
Alec took hold of an eyeball cupcake and bit down into it as Kace looked around the area. This wasn't bad, actually. The cupcake. And it reminded him a lot of Halloween. If only he had thought about his clothing choice and decided to dress-- ... Oh? Appreciate. Prefects. Nodnod. "Yeah, they've done a really great job, haven't they?" he said, looking down at the cupcake with an impressed look on his face. They really were nice. Really. How many was he allowed to have?
"Really?" he asked, looking back at Kace, "Well... you're going to have a lot more to come, I hope. The Prefects do this every year!" Yeah? Didn't they?
The Shrieking Shack? How do you explain it to a firstie who could get scared? ... "Well... it's a haunted house in Hogsmeade, the village near the school," That didn't sound scary, right? "I've never been in there though," And... he probably wasn't going to try. He definitely wasn't going to let Kace go in there; what would Belle say?!
Alec shook his head and looked over at Kace, just in time to see jelly pouring out of the first year's mouth. "I'll take that as a yes, then?" he said, letting out a small chuckle. And for good measure, he reached over and ruffled the boy's hair, too.

With that, he reached over and gave her a gentle poke on the nose.
And... dude. Dude person. Alec didn't really know what the look on the older guy's face meant but he was sure that it wasn't exactly a good one. "Oh! Erm... well... I'd recommend the cupcakes, they're really nice!" he said, reaching up a hand to ruffle his hair. Scary dude seemed scary.
... Oh. OH! BLINK. Wait... did the dude think... him and Awar... O_O
Probably not. But it was sort of in the rule of a big brother to be wary of any boy being around his sister, yeah? Alec let out a small sigh of relief at the grin on the older guy's face before grinning back. "Nice to meet you too, Manolo!" he said, shaking the guy's hand, "Oh, it's my pleasure!" Nodnod. ... Chuckle. "It sounds like she's really fond of you so... I don't think I would be able to even if I tried." Not that he really had. GRIN.
Alec took hold of an eyeball cupcake and bit down into it as Kace looked around the area. This wasn't bad, actually. The cupcake. And it reminded him a lot of Halloween. If only he had thought about his clothing choice and decided to dress-- ... Oh? Appreciate. Prefects. Nodnod. "Yeah, they've done a really great job, haven't they?" he said, looking down at the cupcake with an impressed look on his face. They really were nice. Really. How many was he allowed to have?
"Really?" he asked, looking back at Kace, "Well... you're going to have a lot more to come, I hope. The Prefects do this every year!" Yeah? Didn't they?
The Shrieking Shack? How do you explain it to a firstie who could get scared? ... "Well... it's a haunted house in Hogsmeade, the village near the school," That didn't sound scary, right? "I've never been in there though," And... he probably wasn't going to try. He definitely wasn't going to let Kace go in there; what would Belle say?!

"Yes, well, we're all we have to each other," Awar, along with her brother, reached for a cupcake after having paid.
Manolo inhaled bit into his cupcake. FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD. "This cupcake is indeed nice. MORE LIKE AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS." Oh, he lost his cool there. Oh well. He'd have to make a note of taking a dozen of these home.
Awar nodded, "This are really good!" She looked over at Alec and smirked maliciously. Taking a good finger scoop, she assaulted Alec's nose with the cupcake's icing. You poke me, I'll paint you with delicious topping!

When Kace heard he was going to have a lot more to come, he perked up and even a little jello fell off his face. Woops....that was embarrassing. He hoped Alec didn't think he was a slob. But hey he was young. Plus the jello was really good! He nodded when Alec figured he enjoyed the jello.
He even asked Alec about the prefect events. "Really they have events like this every year? Woah that is so cool! Now i wonder what the winter one will be like."
When Alec was explaining the shrieking shack, Kace's adventure personality peaked. He was curious to explore. "Awww i am sure it is not THAT scary but i am curious to go in there. I mean haven't you been curious what is inside." He smiled to Alec with his eyes widened with the prospect of exploring the shrieking shack.
Erik had not planned to make an appearance at this event, sick as he was of fundraisers, but as he strolled along toward the forest, a certain someone caught his eye.

She could give a whole year's worth of classes to talk about organic food, but she wouldn't.
Despite knocking her over, this kid actually seemed pretty decent, she had to admit. Most kids probably would have just ran away. "No, thank you." Ivy made a face that sort of resembled a smile and waved her hand at the kid. "Go have fun."
"Ms. Knox," he called out as he strolled over to her, one hand in his suit pocket. Erik watched as some boy she was talking to scrambled off. Good timing, lad. "Lovely weather this evening." He flicked his blue gaze up toward the sky and then back to her.

So. This event seemed anything but pleasant. But. Anya was dating a Prefect. Thus, she was going to be supportive of things he was involved in. She browsed the buffet. She made faces and shuddered slightly at things.
She then decided the mud cups looked relatively safe. Assuming, of course, it wasn't actually mud. She dropped 10 sickles into a jar (because she was grabbing one for Jake and wasn't exactly sure if she had to pay twice).
Grabbing the two cups, she looked around before spotting her boyfriend.
Okay. Supportive. She could be supportive. She could do it. Even if everything was... gross. He was worth it.

Lovely. Just lovely. For now.
Ivy watched the young student run off to join his classmates. And not a moment later, she heard her name uttered by a familiar face. Pleased as she was to see him, Ivy kept her smiling to a minimum.
"Mr. Vinteren," she replied with a nod and a glance his way. Then she looked up at the sky. "It's alright." Still a bit too chilly for her preference, but it would do.
After a moment, she looked back over at Erik, suddenly discovering the need to stop her smile from growing. "How are you?"

Just alright? Ivy must not have liked that slight chill in the air that Erik was too accustomed to to notice.
"I'm doing fine," Erik shrugged non-committally. "Haff you tried any of vhe prefect's events today?" He was curious to see his fellow governor at this silly little event for children. But he was also sure she had her reasons for being here, as did he.
His gaze trailed toward the forest with that thought before returning to Ivy.

Hah. Ivy almost laughed. Hah. "No," she replied simply, returning her gaze to the little events that the students were participating in on the grounds. There was no way she was trying any of those.
"Will you be trying any?" she asked a moment later, catching Erik look over at the forest. Ivy blinked and looked over at the large, dark cluster of trees before looking back at Erik... She was suspicious, she was. More so than usual.

No? "Are you sure? A cockroach cluster race sounds like it vas designed vith you in mind." Erik was only joking, to be sure, but his deadpan expression didn't show any trace of a smile. Only his twinkling blue eyes gave away that he was laughing on the inside.
Erik shook his head. "I'm just here to watch." Watch what...he didn't say.

Erik shook his head. "I'm just here to watch." Watch what...he didn't say.
He thought he was so funny... Ivy's eyes flickered over to Erik's to see that they were indeed twinkling, as they did when he cracked a joke. Ivy's expression looked mildly amused as she shook her head. She didn't even have a good comeback for that one. So she just elbowed his rib cage. Heh.
"Same here," she responded, glancing toward the forest again quickly. She had a feeling they weren't watching the same things.

"Ow. Vhat really hurt, Professor," Erik remarked dryly, pretending to rub at the spot on his side where she had elbowed him. Really though, he was stepping closer to her and grabbing her arm, slyly wrapping his own around hers and giving her a tug forward on her hand.
"Don't look that way," he leaned in and whispered in her ear. "Subtly is the game I'm here to play, okay?" Subtly and harmless observation. Nothing bad ever came of observation and a little hand-holding.

Ivy smirked, even though she was about 99% sure that her elbow jab hadn't hurt at all. But before she could say anything, Erik's arm was snaking around hers. She looked up at his blue eyes to see what he was up to.
Subtlety, eh? "You're not doing a very good job," she whispered back, disguising it with a small smile, linking her fingers with his. He was the one who had looked over there to begin with. But she reluctantly followed his instruction and directed her attention elsewhere. It only added to her suspicion, though.

"No?" A little smile graced Erik's lips as he led her over to a table filled with food. She didn't think he was doing a good job of being subtle...well, he'd just distract her with food then. Or he'd distract himself.
..."Vhat are these things?" he asked curiously, picking up something that was either a very pale finger or a cookie coated in white chocolate. Should he eat it? Was it edible?
