Good cooking and light dusting aren't the only things Hogwarts' house elves used to do for free. You'll be missing them more than ever now that you have to do your own laundry! The laundry room is a stone little chamber just off the kitchen, with high ceilings and great big basins and tubs for washing clothes. There are scrub racks you can use to agitate your dirty robes, dryingracks hanging on the walls (they come off, don't be shy), and lines and lines of crisscrossing clothesline overhead. Obviously the house elves used to use their special magic to get things clean and dry, but you'll just have to make do with what's left.
Come on down to the laundry center on your House's assigned day, and don't forget to bring your dirty clothes with you. The school has generously provided plenty of wizarding detergent and fabric softener for you, as well use of the drying racks and lines to hang out your wet clothes. If you know a few spells to speed up the process, you may do so at your own risk and at your supervising professor's discretion.
Remember to sort your colors before you wash them! And don't make fun of each other's dirty undies, mmkay? We all wear them.
OOC: Here's info on how to wash clothes by hand. Also, remember to keep descriptions of what you're washing SS appropriate. Ya don't have to be TOO literal about washing your charrie's underthings. =P
Slytherins & Hufflepuffs will be washing July 10-13; Gryffindors & Ravenclaws will have use of this room July 14-17. Enjoy!
Calista had been looking forward to this for a little while now because...well, a girl only had so many peasant skirts and flowing clothes. The blonde had levitated her clothes hamper from the Divination Tower to this little dungeon-like room to do her laundry alongside the Ravenclaws and Slytherins she had volunteered to help supervise.
When she entered she nodded at the few students who were there already. They seemed to be doing well. It was nice to see the young people doing things on their own--not being so dependent on magic was a good thing really even if they had to do it under such crumby circumstances.
"If anyone needs any help, don't worry. I've done laundry the Muggle-way before." SHe grinned brightly as she turned around to begin on her own laundry machine.
....
Where were the nice, shiny laundry contraptions with the light, spin cycles and little slots for detergent, or the quick dryers? This was no fair. Siiiigh.

Grumbling a bit about not be able to take them to the muggle dry cleaners, Airey set his hamper down and grabbed on the supplies he needed. Right....so he was supposed to fill one of these with water first, yeah? "Good day, Miss Johanson," he greeted before removing one of his ties from the hamper.
He would start with one of these. It was small. Not his favorite. Replaceable. UNLIKE his Carolina blue silk tie that was still missing. Nothing could replace his lucky tie.
Trying not to look too obvious, he peered at the Ravenclaw out of her peripheral vision to see how she was doing things. Oh...so it was THAT thing that they filled with water. Wand out, he pointed at it and cast a silent Aguamenti to fill it. Right....now he needed to use...what?
Yes. The man could practically build a rocket but he had never once done his own laundry.
Wait, Airey was here too? The blonde carried her stuff over to the tub next to the Astronomy Professor's and then sat it down. "Hi Airey, nice pajamas." She giggled before adding. "It must be nice on your skin after your recent...condition." Yes, she had heard things.

Airey continued to stand there looking like a lost child in the middle of Diagon Alley during the summer busy season with his tie in his right hand and the bucket-basin-thing fill with water at his feet. So....did he drop it in there and just...let it soak? What was all this other liquid stuff for? Soap obviously, but why were there two of them?
Smiling awkwardly at the young Ravenclaw, Airey just so happened to turn his back to the antics of a certain other Ravenclaw throwing bubbles at a certain Slytherin. He was far too wrapped up in his own concerns on how on earth to do any of this to realize what was going on around him.
But then he heard a very distinct voice and he slowly turned his head to look at her. Wasn't it rather ironic that she was here considering her habitat?
"Not pajamas. Suitjamas," he corrected with a small smile. Pause. This was rather humiliating. "Hey...Calista....think you could........teachmehowtodothelaundry?"

Suitjamas? That didn't make any sense, regular pajamas didn't look like 'pas'....
But she wasn't going to rain on his parade any more than it already seemed to have happened. The poor man looked miserable. She pulled out her wand and began to fill her tub with water when the man began to talk to her and say her name all weird. What was wrong with him?
Ohhhhh. "Uh, sure, Airey. It's nothing to be ashamed of." It would be if he had Muggle parents but something about her eccentric friend told her he didn't. "Right so it looks like you already filled the tub with water. What you will want to do now is separate your clothes into two piles: whites and darks. We do this so the colors don't bleed onto your white shirts and things."

Ashamed of? Nope. He was not ashamed of anything. Well, at least not when it came to not doing laundry the muggle way. Disappointed would be the more appropriate term. Then again he really did like using the muggle cleaners, so there was even more disappointment on his face now. He missed the nice old lady that ran the place. She always included a peppermint candy with the receipt.
"DONE!" he beamed while turning his hamper around for her to see. See? White and darks already separated. "I should make piles too, right? Of ties and shirts and pants and jackets, yeah? So that....they don't blend into one jump suit or something."

She thought this was a complete joke when she brought her dirty things down to the laundry center. Were they actually serious? She had to wash these things by hand? At home they at least had those muggle washer and dryer thingy's that she was very proud to be able to say she knew how to use. Carrying her load of clothing and such she entered the room and looked around pulling a face as she did so. Merlin they hadn't been joking!
Now, the paying a knut to get into the common room was one thing and paying money to enter the great hall was ridiculous. Not to mention having to go and find her trunk that first night and clean her bed area just so she could sleep now this was ridiculous!
Plopping her clothing by one of the empty wash tubs. Could she just pay someone to do this disgusting job? Picking up her clothing one at a time she sorted the whites from the colours with a look of disgust on her face.

The blonde decided to sort her own laundry as she waited for Ariey to do his. She was just reaching for a white shirt of her's from the top of the pile in her hamper when he exclaimed that he was finished behind her.
"What are you talk--" He actually was finished. "Oh. Well give me one second to finish mine." She turned back around and quickly and skillfully sorted the rest of her dirty clothes being sure not to let anything she didn't want the room full of students and Airey see make an appearance. When she was finished she was able to address his next concern.
"Nooo..." she began to chuckle. It soon became a full fledged laugh and she had to stop talking for a minute to catch her breath. "I'm s-sorry. Aww I really am. I'm not making fun I swear. It's just that question. But no, you will be okay washing them all together. The fabrics will not morph together into some monster suit." Frankstein-style. Hehe. "So what we will do now," she wiped a small tear from under her eye from the laughter and contiued. "is take about a cap full of this detergent and dump it in the water." She did it. "We can use almost a full cap full because you have a large pile of clothes there." Both his darks and lights seemed to have piled up.

Theo scrubbed his white undies, not that they were particularly skiddy dirty, but because he was just excessive like that. He wanted to get it all done before anyone he knew arrived, so he wouldn't look like a boring fart. Because he really wasn't in the mood for chatting. So when he got pelted with bubbles, his face pretty much turned to stone in a glare.
He turned slowly to see who had just attacked him, and it was Nigel. Or Nige-man, which was how Theo remembered him for some reason.
"What're you..." He picked up a handful of his own bubbles, "Doing?" And threw them back. This really wasn't Theo's idea of fun, but throwing them was a little bit satisfying. He cast a quick look over to the two professors and wondered if they would be the killjoy types, or maybe they'd join in?
What was he saying?
His UNDIES were hanging out here? Going red, Theo pushed them back into his basin and carried on scrubbing, especially when Mika stopped and said hi.
MEEP. Girl. And. His undies.
"Hi." He croaked.

Amelia was glad that the stain was starting to go, she looked round at the other students she wished she had more friends at school maybe someone to love her. She went back to her robes, she put some fabric softener into the basin.
By now Nigel's laundry was more looking like a tower of bubbles then clothing. Which was basically what Nigel wanted and it looked pretty awesome.
Nigel was now ready and waiting for Theo to react to getting pelted with bubbles. So when Theo did react it and ask him what he was doing he replied with two words. "Bubble Fight" . Then he started laughing. This was fun for Nigel. Even thought he was a fourth year. But this was a bubble fight and it was awesome.
It did seem that after getting hit with bubbles that Theo was having a little fun or that he was a little less miserable. But that was why Nigel was having a bubble fight and the only way to make this more fun was to bring more people into it.
So while laughing and not even caring if Elwood was helping Flamsteed with laundry or not. He threw some bubbles back at Theo from his tower of bubbles and just to make this more awesome he threw some at Mika to see what she would do.
Maybe The Professors would join in? It was wishful thinking. But who knows.

Chuckling to himself a bit - did she really expect anything different from him? Not like he would sort his things in front of students. That could only result in awkwardness and having things seen that ought not be seen. Things like....
Tugging on his suitjamas' tie, he quickly turned away from Calista and all her process. He was actually rather surprised that she sorted anything, considering her habitat and all.
Just going to stand here and poke at his socks a bit....
"Ah, I see," he replied. That was both a relief and a disappointment. It also gave him ideas. Heh. "Cap full of detergent, right." He reached for what he thought was detergent when he saw something foamy go sailing by his face, causing him to fall backwards and IN to his basin of water. Water went all over the place - potentially splashing those nearby - and the man just sunk into a seating position with arms and legs hanging over the rim.

Mika heard Theo’s voice croak and just felt her eyebrow rise up a bit. “Er, Theo…I didn’t see anything” she added in a hushed voice so hopefully only he could hear. She had no idea bout the bubble fight going on behind her nope. None what so ever.
She reached in to her basin and began to scrape and ring out the clothing again. And then it hit her. Something wet had just hit her back. “hey, you” she eyed Theo and Nigel as she reached into her basin and pulled out a bit of foam. As she tossed some at both of them not knowing who had thrown it at her in the first place.
It was satisfying…she liked the bubble throwing thing. That was fun. She glanced over her shoulder and saw Professor Flamsteed sitting in his basin. “Er, Professor wh-whats wrong?” She asked as washed off her things and wrung them out again. “You need any help drying things?” She asked a concerned voice.

As if being demoted to working only part time wasn't bad enough, Cece now had to do laundry duty when she was at the school. She was really starting to wonder why she left her post in S.A.M. to work at the school. At least back in Sweden she would actually be doing what she had been trained for, which was healing people, NOT helping them do their laundry.
As she walked into the laundry room what is the first thing she sees? Why none other that Professor Flamsteed...

Sitting in the wash tub, with Professor Elwood laughing.
She looked at the two professors with a look of disappointment. "And I thought I was on laundry patrol to make sure the students behaved themselves, NOT the professors."
She was definitely not getting paid enough to babysit the professors.

When Callie was giving him the directions of how to add the detergent she was a tad confused as to what he was looking at behind her and why he was pulling on his pajama tie. Was he warm?
"Yep, just a cap full!" The blonde opened up her own thing of soap and was pouring the cap full of liquid into her own tub when she heard a grunt and then was splashed with water. Airey had fallen into his tub and was now soaked. "Airey! Oh are you alright?" But the laughing started again, she was somewhat wet but seeing her friend in wet suit-pajamas was just too much.
The soap-fighting and other things going on would have to wait. But as she was bent over laughing, yet still trying to not make the man feel bad about himself, another Staff member entered the room and was looking at them and speaking crossly. Oops. "I'm sorry Header Tillstorm, it's just Professor Flamsteed here," she pointed at him, trying to get her laughter under control. "He...had an accident."
Yes, he wet himself. Snort.
"Here Airey let me help you." She reached out to pull him from the tub.

Airey just sat there. Sat there and soaked in his basin. He was still somewhat ironically holding the container of detergent in his hand and had not spilled a single drop of it despite the fall. Might as well just wash himself while he was down there yeah?
Oh, had students seen that? He had rather hoped that they all had gone momentarily blind.
"No no, I'm fine. Worry about your own laundry," he said while waving off the Ravenclaw. No offense to her, but no students were going to do any spellwork on his suits.
He could hear Calista laughing and would have said some sort of snarky reply had it not been for Cece arriving on the scene. Oh, right, yeah....he had sort of forgotten that she had been assigned to laundry duty today. He probably should have come when Leobald and Ali were here. Male bonding or something like that.
"But we ARE behaving ourselves," he grumbled like a first year. Honestly, he was not in this basin playing pirate by choice. Even Airey Flamsteed had his limits.
"I'm alright, Calista, I can get up myself" he said while pushing himself out of the basin and it getting stuck to his bum for just a moment before crashing to the ground. He then proceeded to drip all over the floor. He would get to those puddles in a moment. Padding his soaked silk suitjamas, he began to search for his wand and, upon doing so, began to administer a Hot Air Charm to himself to dry off.

Healer Tillstorm glared at Professor Elwood. "An accident that most likely could have been avoided I'm sure." She then glared over at Airey. No doubt one of his stupid pranks backfiring on him. "Really professor? This," she said waving her hand at the both of them, "is behaving yourself? I'd say it's more like you're up.......................... to something" Something like trying to impress the female professor by making her feel sorry for him maybe?
She then looked over at the boys throwing bubbles. "You boys have about thirty seconds to clean up your mess. You're here to wash your laundry, not throw bubbles and act like... them." She said looking back at Professor's Flamsteed and Elwood.
That's right Airey and Calista. She was calling you out for your foolishness and lack of leadership.
Nigel was already laughing before Flamsteed fell into the bucket and had just stopped when Healer Tillstorm entered the laundry center. Nigel waited and watched to see what was going to happen. Well this could have been a lot worse for Nigel and Theo.
"Sorry Healer Tillstorm and sorry Professors". Nigel felt he should apologize since he started it. Once Nigel finished apologizing he went over to Theo, did a complicated wave, and cast the hot-air charm on him. "My Bad". Nigel sad to him. Once he was dry. He went over to Mika and did the same thing.
Well Nigel did have a lot of free time on his hands over the summer and thought he should learn something useful. Such as the hot-air charm.
Once he finished using the charm he went back to his laundry and cast the charm on his tower of bubbles and continued to try and do his laundry. Having no clue on how to hand wash anything.

Airey just sat there. Sat there and soaked in his basin. He was still somewhat ironically holding the container of detergent in his hand and had not spilled a single drop of it despite the fall. Might as well just wash himself while he was down there yeah?
Oh, had students seen that? He had rather hoped that they all had gone momentarily blind.
"No no, I'm fine. Worry about your own laundry," he said while waving off the Ravenclaw. No offense to her, but no students were going to do any spellwork on his suits.
He could hear Calista laughing and would have said some sort of snarky reply had it not been for Cece arriving on the scene. Oh, right, yeah....he had sort of forgotten that she had been assigned to laundry duty today. He probably should have come when Leobald and Ali were here. Male bonding or something like that.
"But we ARE behaving ourselves," he grumbled like a first year. Honestly, he was not in this basin playing pirate by choice. Even Airey Flamsteed had his limits.
"I'm alright, Calista, I can get up myself" he said while pushing himself out of the basin and it getting stuck to his bum for just a moment before crashing to the ground. He then proceeded to drip all over the floor. He would get to those puddles in a moment. Padding his soaked silk suitjamas, he began to search for his wand and, upon doing so, began to administer a Hot Air Charm to himself to dry off.

"Really professor? This," she said waving her hand at the both of them, "is behaving yourself? I'd say it's more like you're up.......................... to something" Something like trying to impress the female professor by making her feel sorry for him maybe?
She then looked over at the boys throwing bubbles. "You boys have about thirty seconds to clean up your mess. You're here to wash your laundry, not throw bubbles and act like... them." She said looking back at Professor's Flamsteed and Elwood.
That's right Airey and Calista. She was calling you out for your foolishness and lack of leadership.
Was she sure? Callie calmed herself after the initial scolding they had received from the blonde Healer. She watched as Airey struggled to remove himself from the water tub and had even went to reach for the thing when it got stuck on his backside. She supressed a giggle then but now he was okay?
"There you go, all dry and back to normal." She wiped a bit of bubbles from his sleeve from the bubble-warriors nearby.
They could continue now, right? No...Cece was still upset. Elwood had always liked the woman but she knew she had a temper, it just had never been unleashed on her just set. She had seen it so on Oliver, William, and Waylon but never imagined it would be directed to her so easily. "It really was an accident Healer Tillstorm." Callie piped up, sounding a student, much like Airey had. "He lost his balance. We were just working on laundry. It's as much my fault as his."
She looked at the Astronomy Professor and then back to Cece. "We're sorry." Her eyes flicked between the students and the real boss here and then back to her tub. "Alright, Professor Flamsteed, let's add the detergent and then your first load of laundry." She winked at him.

Bubble fight?
But there were professors present? Theo opened his mouth to speak but the healer had already come marching in making a fuss. Clean it up? I think you'll find Theo only threw one bubble, which was totally in self defence. The Slytherin held his head down low towards his basin and pretended that he didn't even know Nigel and Mika.
He put his now-scrubbed white undies back in his bag to hide, then moved on to his colours.

Asher arrived bright and early to the laundry room. He had a giant pile of laundry to work on and wanted to get done so he could play outside. "Wash wash wash wash, scrub scrub scrub, I like to wash and scrub" he sang as he put his pile in the appropriate spot.
Asher continued to sing as he sorted his laundry and waited for more students to arrive. Doing laundry with others would be a lot more fun than doing it alone.
