Post 1 Notes! So much notes to make! Adi wrote furiously, his left hand darting back and forth on his notebook. This incident was a very interesting one though. He looked up when the Professor said they were going to re-enact the event. Cool! She did know how to make this boring class exciting. Adi grinned over at Benny. Was he going to be a dragon? The Hufflepuff eyed the costumes. He liked the wizarding robes. They were old fashioned but okay looking. He decided he'd be a wizard so he grabbed one and pulled it over his uniform. True to the words of the Professor, they adjusted comfortably over it. "I'd like to be Thomas if that's okay, Professor.'' |
Post 1 SPOILER!!: Professor Glendower Wait. They were going to be putting on costumes and actually physically acting it out? That sounded kind of like fun. Simon didn't mind the stage. He didn't have to be himself. He could be anyone else. He found that being someone else was much easier than being himself. As students had begun raising their hands to ask which character they could be, Simon thought about the remaining characters left over. He would've rather been a muggle or the dragon, but then, he saw that he could be the Minister. OOH! Yes. Yes. All of a sudden, he raised his hand high into the air. "Could I please be the Minister of Magic?" Then he picked up the old wizarding robes and put them on. Before he could worry about adjusting them to himself, they had already done the job themselves. Merlin. Magic was awesome. What was the next thing they had to do? Right- breathing exercises were next. |
Text Cut: Jeremiah Text Cut: Glendower #2 The Ilfacromble Incident. She KNEW that one. It involved a DRAGON, of course she'd know about that one. The simple discussion about that certain event was enough to bring Beverly's full attention back. Having read about this incident plenty of times before, Beverly settled for taking notes and underlining things she thought would come in handy. Text Cut: Glendower #3 They seemed to have some sort of script down. Beverly held in a groan. Acting, she only did that when she was in the pursue of something she wanted. Like giving Kennedy The Eyes that made him surrender his will to her. Or when she pretended to be extremely sad and her dad would cave in to whatever she wished. That was excellent acting, but this...she didn't was too enthused about it. While she'd normally want to be the dragon, Beverly figured the attention would be on that character the most and she didn't like attention. So she decided to got for one of the Toke family members. She raised her hand. "I'll take Virginia." Yeah? |
Post 1: Cris was glad when Professor Glendower took charge of the first year situation. It was saddening to hear the Kyroh didn't feel at home on Ravenclaw. Cris occasionally still felt that way sometimes. But it was time for him to pay attention to the lesson proper. They were going to reenact the events that happened at the beach? Cris immediately cheered up. Initially, he wanted to volunteer for the dragon's role, but eventually decided to stick with being a human. Raising his hand, he told their History of Magic a Professor who he would portray. "Professor, I would like to play one of the Toke family members. I'll take Ellis." Cris volunteered silently wondering whether they would also be allowed to cast the memory charm. The scene that had enfolded earlier during question and answer time was something he was willing to have erased from his memories. |

Text Cut: professor Glendower So it has to do with Muggles in a beach. Interesting. The stupid dragon should have blown them all. The muggles and the wizarding family. Yeah! opening the barbecue season!! Non, non, non. The dragon found it funny leaving traces. And now I have to wear these ridiculous costumes. - Anna thought while taking a beach outfit. She put on the costume and looked at herself. She looked ridiculous, definitively. "Hey, dragon! Kill me, please!" she whispered. |
Post 2 There didn't seem to be any objections--not that she would have listened if anyone else had wanted the loony guy (first come first serve, yeah?) so Lex went to get herself into costume. Seeing as the man was muggle she'd need one of the old bathing suits...that had her wrinkling her nose. Did people really used to dress like this at the beach? Merlin with all this fabric how didn't they drown???? Questions for a sane mind. As it stood, she was playing a nut so it wasn't something she could question until after she'd gotten back out of character. For now, it was slipping into one of these. The Professor wasn't kidding when she said they fit over your uniforms. This was almost snug but then by design it wasn't really. Weird old dead people and their funny way of dressing. After changing Lex got back to her desk and tried the exercise the Professor had mentioned. Eyes closed and slow breathing....trying to interpret the charrie's reasons... Maybe....maybe he wasn't a determined nut job, maybe he just didn't know it was called a dragon....which would make him stupid? Was that it? Merlin, muggles were odd. |
Post 1 WELP. Maddie was still confused about what had gone down and still thinking things over as Professor Glendower began giving them instructions. One thing was for sure, the small brunette didn't WANT TO or FEEL LIKE acting Taking one of the muggle swimsuits, the twelve year old EYED it curiously. People actually wore this on the beach? She GUESSED it was better than those skimpy bikini things but STILL. Talk about awkward tan-lines. ANYWAY. Slipping on the rather large costume, she was surprised when it shrunk to fit her tiny frame. "Cool." Magic was SO cool. Unlike the breathing exercise thing happening. Yeah, that didn't look so cool. |
Post 2 Simon closed his eyes and started to take several deep breaths in. Inhale. And exhale. Inhaaaale and exhaaale. He tried his hard to picture the kind of man the Minister would be. He imagined that the Minister would've been someone in their late fifties who had started greying ever so slightly. His Minister would be awesome. He'd be cunning and very savvy when it came to dealing with people. As the minister, he'd also have to be very serious and play by the rules.. Well... seem to play by the rules. On a side note, Simon would have to lower his voice for the role.. He got the sudden urge to yawn.. Oh no! This time when he inhaled, his exhale turned into a yawn. He couldn't resist it. All of a sudden, he heard a voice in his head. Can't fall asleep on the job, man! You're the Ministry of Magic! Have to stay awake. You have awards to give out. Pull yourself together, man! he told himself as he took another breath in. Anyway. Refocusing now... The Minister must've been very grateful to the Toke's for protecting the muggles from the dragon. No one had lost their lives and they had managed to fix the memories of the majority of muggles that had been present at the beach. He straightened his posture, readying himself for the next exercise. |

"Well, of course you do! That's how we are going to experience history!" And they were all doing it, so no need to feel shy or embarrassed. No one would actually be watching. "If you'd like a smaller part, consider being one of the Muggle sunbathers." There wasn't much speaking and he could be part of an ensemble.. maybe less daunting. "Of course.. of course.." she said to all of the students asking for one part or another. Quote:

Post 1 "Sure" Like he had another choice. Though that was a pretty easy task. They were the craziest house. All this information was pretty interesting and her reaction to the drama was very amusing. Up to the point where he got involved. Still fun. Now this was the easiest choice to have to make. He would rock that muggle swimwear and look good going to. Hair or not. "Muggle Sunbather, Please" Nigel said as he went up to get one and put it on. He looked fantastic and totally looked amazing in 1900's muggle swimwear. This was the most fun part out of this theater thing. |
Post 1 Angel looked at the Professor as she said about the items. "Okay, Professor, so if I want to be a beach going person, I have to get into a costume right?" Angel was a bit confused as to what the Professor meant, she wanted to be a beach person but she didn't know what they were supposed to do and she didn't want to get into trouble. Angel was also wondering what the Professor was doing, she also wondered what the Professor is doing because the professor had asked about a Peter but then ignored her which wasn't very good because she had tried to tell her she had no idea. |
Post #1 :: putting on costume So she got the part. Okay. Now time to suit up and get it over with. Honestly, Bevelry was only doing this because house points. She wanted them all, and if it took some acting to get them, then act she would. Standing up and heading to grab wizarding robes that seemed like the ones her ancestors used, she took some plum-looking ones. They fit once she put them on. Not bad. Lifting her hair from under the robes, she let it fall around her shoulders. She was ready for the breathing activity, but...was it really necessary? |
#1 Oh, a FAKE dragon. That was better. Agatha wanted to be one of the COOL people, so she raised her hand before claiming a character. "I'll be Virg--" She EYED Beverly as she spoke up before she did. Hm. "I'm Tilly then." She got up and went to retrieve a costume before anyone else took that one. |
Post 2 and Professor? Not really knowing who was who in the Toke family, Cris raises his hand to ask the Professor. "Professor, who is Thomas, Tilly, Ellis and Virginia. What is their role in the family?" Cris asked wanting to know more about the character he would be playing, even as he walked over to pick out his Wizarding folk costume. It smelt a little of mothballs and Cris wondered to whom these belonged to before concluding that the Professor most likely had procured them from the Wizarding Academy of Dramatic Arts. Quickly slipping the costume over his school robes, Cris smiled appreciatively when the costume immediately adjusted itself over his form. Neat trick. Walking back to where the Professor was waiting with the rest of the class, Cris found a spot where he could prepare himself for the role. Sitting down, he stretched out his legs. Closing his eyes, he began the relaxing process. He slowly breathed in and out, and as he did so, he allowed his body to relax. He relaxed the muscles on his face...no more frowning...then he allowed his head to slowly drop to his chest, relaxing his neck and shoulder muscles, feeling the tension slowly dissipate. Next were his arms and hands, allowing them to fall relaxed on his lap. As Cris continued to slowly breath in and out, he could the rest of his body relax with each breath he took. When he was finally in a place of total relaxation, Crus began to think about the character he would be portraying. Ellis Toke. |
Post 2 Oh look, Prefect Nigel was going to be a sunbather TOO. He got a head nod and a small smile cause he was cool, she'd decided. It was a VERY big deal to be on her list of COOL people. UH-HUH. So time to do the deep breathing nonsense, yeah? The small brunette closed her eyes and took a deep breath in, letting it out slowly. So her character was a muggle. Probably a really cool one who was stuck vacationing with her family. And she was struggling to get a good tan while rocking her swimsuit AND avoiding her annoying brothers who insisted on bothering her. Deep breath in, let it out slowly. And she was just at the wrong place at the wrong time, essentially. And she was smart so she probably would have tried to hide or dive into the water when the dragon appeared cause dragons meant fire and the water would protect her, yeah? Only her brothers were dumb-- Deep breath in, let it out slowly. -so she'd stuck around the beach just to make sure they didn't get eaten by this creature who she'd only read about in books. Peeking one eye open, Maddie looked around and then decided she'd had enough time to prepare. She was relaxed as she needed to be to sit there looking pretty so yeah, she was good. Were they going to "act" now or what? ...Was Kyroh okay? |
#2 and haaaai Simon minister of Magic :3 Agatha had the costume in NO TIME because she wanted to be one the ones playing the awesome family but whoa, those robes were odd. She'd seen worse, though, so she quickly put them on and didn't think they looked that strange on her then it looked when she first got it. Cool. She was cool. She looked around and saw that Simon had chosen to be Minister of Magic! Coooooool. That was an important role as well. Agatha looked around and saw where he was standing and walked over there. Now Agatha was one of the important characters AND was standing next to the Minister of Magic. No need to say she was smiling smugly and all that. People were doing odd stuff, though. Oh yeah, the teacher had said something about that. She closed her eyes - partially, because she wanted to keep watching everybody else - and breeeathed. Still watching everyone. |
Post 1 The ickles were being naughty, and Mo was glad that the Professor was looking to Nigel and Dora to take it up with them. It had been ages since they'd had acting out in class the way Gryffindors did regularly, and yet the firsties this term were all over it. Mo raised his hand after his classmates had been given quite a while to claim characters. It was obvious which one he wanted, and so he'd ask for it. "Professor, can I play the dragon? Maybe another student can help me by being the tail?" Teamwork, y'know? |
Post 2 Nigel nodded back at Maddie. His fellow sunbathing claw. It was the best part to pick after all. Besides the dragon and Mo got that. Now the easy part. Prof said to be zen and Nigel was already zen. When wasn't he, was a better question to ask. So now he had to think about his motivations. Which was again easy as eating a slice of cake. He wanted to get a tan and have people watch him and his amazing looks. Why else sunbath on a beach. Surely people in 1900's had the same thought process. Just imagine his hair was a lot shorter. Like when he was an ickle. Yeah, imagine that. |
Post 2 So now that Adi had secured the role of Thomas, he was ready to start the warm up exercises. He pictured what the Professor had done. First things first. Close the yes. The third year did just that. Deep breaths followed. No problems there for him. What he did have problem with was relaxing. How was he supposed to relax when he was excited about the acting thing? Adi continued to take deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. After several moments, he felt he had done this. He continued to focus on relaxing his entire body. Now to focus on his character- Thomas. Thomas's motivation? A dragon. |
Post 1 Oooh, they were going to play parts in a play thing? That was rather exciting because Lux had never acted in anything before. For a total extrovert like her, this was a fun and new experience and hopefully she would do a good job of it. About to volunteer to be the dragon. An older student beat her to the punch. But that was okay, because he was totally willing to have someone play the tail. Flailing her hands in the air, she said, "I want to be the tail. I want to be a dragon part." Maybe she was just a tail, but she would STILL be part of a DRAGON. How cool was that? |

And she nodded at the follow-up question. "Certainly.. if you could use some assistance, we could use someone for the tail.." Dragons were awfully large after all. Her eyes flickered over to a voice requesting that very part. "You got it!" |
As she was just stainding there, waiting for the time to go 'on stage', Agatha heard the professor explaining who her character was. And that she had a husband. Ohhh, eww. She tried to see who had claimed the character that was her character's husband and saw a Hufflepuff. A Hufflepuff. She had never interacted with one of those and didn't know what to expect of him. At least he wasn't a Ravenclaw. |
Post 1 Muggle sunbather Jasmine couldn't believe the verbal altercation between her Ravenclaw housemates. She was very surprised at Penelope's outburst. She had always seemed rather quiet and nonconfrontational. Jasmine hoped that the involved parties would be able to work things out among themselves. Anyway, the Professor seemed to have things under control. So they would be reenacting the Ilfracombe Incident. Jasmine decided that she would like to be a beach-going Muggle. It was a good thing that she wanted that role because all of the major parts were taken anyway. Jasmine got a sunbathing costume and proceeded to put it on. It was amazing how the bathing suit magically transformed so that it fit her perfectly. Looking down at herself in the old timey getup, Jasmine couldn't help but laugh. She looked ridiculous, but she wasn't alone. |
Post 2 if you count the 1st one with the stage fright stuff SPOILER!!: Professor Zander let out a small sigh. Not a rude one, just an "awh-man-i-thought-so" one. He nodded his head as he listened to his professors explanation. BU-BU-BUT HE COULD TOTALLY EXPERIENCE IT BY WATCHING. That's what he did with television! Yeah. Definitely experienced all 6 seasons of that old television show he found online. He EXPERIENCED being trapped on that island AND even the plan crash. MHM. If he hadn't experienced it, then his fear of planes would not be in exsistence. SEE he can totally watch AND experience all at the same time. It's a talent. But either way, he wasn't going to argue. Because he liked Gryffindor House and wanted to stay in the lead. So yep. Being a good kid now. "I-I guess I'll be a sunbather," he was practically a muggle after all, so the acting shouldn't be that bad. He then walked over to grab a costume and SHUDDERED at how ugly they were. EW. Did people actually wear those wretched things. After putting it on, he felt more like a prisoner in jail, than he did a sunbather. The striped suit was practically covering all his skin. There's no way he'd get any sun in this getup. Hmph. |
Post #1; sunbather! What? WHAT?! They were going to be ACTING?! An incredulous look crossed Grayson's face as he forgot ALL about his textbook and the activity in general and stared at the board. Sweet Merlin, they really were going to be acting. Could he act? NO. Not even a tiny sliver. They had had plays in primary school but the part-Frenchie had never taken part in those. He much rather preferred to watch, and maaaaaaybe distract his friends up on the stage. And laugh at the people that fell over. That was always fun. But THIS?! No. Never. And it turned out that if you snoozed, you lose. Look at all the great roles that had been taken away already! MAN. What was he going to be left with? A stinkin' sunbather, that's what. Though, he reminded himself, that was a MUCH better role to play than one of the children. He didn't want those. Nuh uh. "I'll be a Muggle sunbather as well!" he called out, his hand in the air. |
Post 1 Kyroh wasn't crying, tears were just making their way out his eyes okay? He was fine. Just fine with hiding here for the rest of class. Buried in his arms. It sounded good. Until the girl started talking again. He peaking through the gap in his arms he sniffled and blinked at her. If she didn't mean it why did she say it? Kyroh didn't understand. But he couldn't ask her. Because as soon as she said sorry she was gone. Right out the door. ...Was that even allowed? Was she crying? Did he make her cry? He was sorry. Kyroh buried his face again and tried to wipe away the tears, just as the Professor appeared. See? He hadn't done anything wrong right? Right? Then why did he feel so bad? "I know. Ravenclaw's great." Kyroh mumbled into his arms sadly, doubting that the Professor could hear him but it didn't matter anyways. It didn't matter. Class. History time. Under normal circumstances Kyroh would have been the first to ask to play the dragon. But he didn't want to. Instead he lifted his head and slowly made his way to the front of the room and grabbed a Muggle swimsuit. He hesitated before dragging the swim suit over and standing beside Maddie and Nigel who were also Muggle characters. Did people actually wear these things? They were weird. Like pyjamas more than swimsuits. Kyroh wanted to ask. But he wouldn't. Stepping into the large strange looking swimsuit. The first year blinked slightly surprised as the suit shrunk to his size. |

"Come on, partner. Let's go get dressed, then." Quote:
He accepted the potion gratefully from the professor, giving her a small salute. "I've used it before, Professor. Thanks." Not swallowing it was definitely good advice, as Mo remembered just how unpleasant an experience it was when one's stomach was on fire. |
Post 1 Wait...they were going to be acting?! Now this lesson was gonna be interesting! He could act pretty well. He can be comfortable up on stage or in this case acting in front of his classmates. Plus the outfits didn't look too horrible to wear. Now this lesson was getting interesting. So they needed to pick their roles? Kace grinned and joined with Grayson in being a beach-going muggle. He could totally play that role well. "Professor, I will be the muggle sun-bather as well!" he called out raising his hand. That should be fun. He went over to the costumes and began to get his costume. |
Post 2 Awesome, she got to be the dragon's tail!! Jumping up from her seat, Lux decided that the first thing she wanted to do was the breathing exercises. Wearing a tail might make it harder, and surely she wouldn't get in trouble for doing the exercises first? This Professor seemed super NICE and AWESOME. Because how many of their lessons involved pretending to be a dragon??? Breathe innnnnnn and outttttttt. How many times did she have to do this? Probably not too many because this Merpuff didn't really do nervousness. After a few minutes, that was enough of the breathing so on to the costume getting! EEEP, THIS WAS SOO COOL! ^_______^ Beaming and waving at the boy she was partnered with (who was named Mo) Lux skipped over to where all the outfits were. Ewww, why were the beach outfits so gross? Did muggles really wear those things in the 1930s? They were so UGLY. And how could anyone get suntanning done when most of their bodies were covered? BUT ON TO MORE IMPORTANT THINGS. "So how do you want to do this, Mo? Maybe we can put the tail on a stick and I could wave it around like a flag?" Because that might be fun! |
Post #1 WHAT?! Seriously? ... Everything was TAKEN! Well, all the good parts, at least. Sophie frowned. "What's left, Professor? Muggle on the beach?" she asked, raising her hand. "Do I have to be sunbathing? What about beach volleyball? That sounds cool!" Sunbathing sounded cool, too, but Sophie wanted something unique and special. Plus, she could hit people in the head with a volleyball and claim it was an accident. She strolled over to the old-fashioned swimsuits and selected one. What was THIS? Oh, well. At least it worked well with the winter weather. She slipped it on over her robes and watched as it transformed itself to fit her body. She needed a volleyball. |
Post 3: SPOILER!!: Professor Glendower Professor Glendower's reply to his question came just in time. Cris was in the process of channeling himself into the mind of young Ellis...or at least..what he thought Ellis Toke's feelings would be at the time of the incident. 'He'd be excited about the prospect of going to the beach with his family. He'd be nervous at the same time that he would make a mistake and perform magic in front of many muggles. He'd be wondering whether they would meet another wizarding family at the beach. He'd be hoping that there would be a pretty single witch in that family,' Cris thought to himself, even as he continued to close his eyes, allowing the slow breathing technique to relax him even further. 'He'd also be pretty excited if he ended up meeting a pretty muggle girl. He'd then be anxious about meeting any single girl. Would he be all awkward and gawky? Then he'd be feeling apprehensive about getting sun-burned and end up looking like a red lobster' Cris thought to himself, placing himself in the young wizard's shoes. Cris slowly opened his eyes. He was now ready to portray the Ellis Toke, the heroic single son of Virginia Toke. |
Post 1 & slight catch up Ilfacrombe Incident! That sounded like something that she would have to look up, and just like with the first question she just really didn't want to. Considering that the professor told her that she needed to be a bit more specific, AJ flipped the pages in her textbook. DRAGONS! She was just about to open her mouth to say just that when everybody else beat her to it. Oh well, she made notes, so that was kind of the same thing right? ---------------------------------------- More costumes? Was this like a theme at Hogwarts or something. Apparently she had fallen asleep or something because all of the cool parts seemed to be taken. She would have loved to be a dragon, and she would have made a dang good one too. Looking at the board she decided that she would have to be one of the kids. Next time she would have to speak up sooner. "I guess I'll be one of the various kids." They couldn't have been that cool if they were just various... they didn't even have their own names. YAY... not. |
post 3 Simon continued to taking deep breaths in and out as he thought about the Minister's role. He'd have to be super professional. He'd have to carry himself with a certain air. He was a leader. Simon would have to be loud and serious. Maybe make a couple jokes on the side. He opened his eyes briefly and saw Agatha standing quite close to him. Uh, hiya. He continued to listen to the ongoing conversations around him and realized that she was going to be Tilly Toke. He could feel the air around them prickle as Agatha had found out that she had a Hufflepuff husband. He nudged her with his elbow. "Now how come I wasn't invited to the wedding, my friend?" he whispered giving her a wink before he refocused on his own task at hand. How did a leader move? With confidence and style. Mhmm. Yes. |
Post 2 Now it was time to practice the relaxation warm up exercises. Jasmine closed her eyes and began to take slow, deep breaths. She tried to relax her head, face and neck first. Then she followed by relaxing her shoulders and arms. She continued to try to relax the muscles in her body moving down until she reached her legs and feet. All the while, Jasmine continued to breathe slowly and deeply. Finally she let her mind think about her character. She was a young muggle girl out for a day at the beach with her family. Her motivation probably started out as fun, fun and more fun. That was her objective for the day initially. However, after the dragon appeared, she was probably motivated by fear. She would have been concerned with getting away from the beach and the terrifying dragon as quickly as possible. Jasmine pictured the girl in her mind. Then she tried to see herself as the girl. She [/I]was[/I] the girl and Jasmine tried to imagine what she must have felt........put herself in the girl's shoes so to speak. |
Post 2 Now that the silly, could-be-bathing-suit-but-really-a-pyjama was on him Kyroh looked around. He was suppose to do something else...right. Kyroh looked around once more and noticed a bunch of people with their eyes closed. So he did the same. He was suppose to breathe too right? But he was already breathing! Otherwise he'd be dead right now. So instead of breathing even louder he started to make that meditating noise!"Ommmmmmm. OOOOOMMMMM." Good yeah? He even began to wiggle his arms because that showed he was relaxed right? He was a relaxed sunbather who was wearing a silly suit. Ah. And he was on the beach. Beach. Sun. Sitting would probably be better for sunbathing. But... what if he didn't want to be a sunbather? What if he wanted to be one of those guys that always ran on the beach? The thought would have excited him, running and having FUN but....Kyroh just shook his head. He was just a sunbather. That was all. Bathing in the sun. Sun. Maybe he should sit down? As the thought entered his brain the first year dropped to the ground and stretched his arms and feet out. Bathing. In the sun. Sun. Beach. Lots of sun. Heat? THE SUN WAS HOT! AH! Kyrohs eyes opened "I need sunscreen." |
#3 Text Cut: Simon! Agatha was Even though she was watching things around her, Simon was on her other side and she was startled when he nudged her. Her face turned slightly red at his comment/wink and she fully opened her eyes again. She didn't answer her fellow Slytherin, but pursed her lips and looked from him to the Hufflepuff who was supposed to be her husband. She didn't even know that other kid, which made her face turn ever redder. She decided to play it cool though, and stood up straighter and fixed her hair as she tried to not look towards her 'husband'. Merlin, that was going to be awkward. She kind of regreted having chosen that particular character. But not really, because she got to play an important part and she liked that very much. Actually, when were they starting? She was ready! |
Post 1 Caleb didn't want to be one of the BIG characters. He wasn't an actor and honestly, couldn't get excited enough about one of the main characters to actually play the role effectively. So he decided to be one of the muggles, cause they were just like...all over, right? So he just had to point and yell and pretend to be afraid. "I'll be one of the muggles," he said with a shrug. Yup, that was all that was left, right? |
Post #2 Despite herself, Beverly closed her eyes and inhaled and exhaled. She first started by clearing her mind, or at least, tried to. If she didn't think of one thing then she'd thing of another. It was easier when she started focusing on relaxing each part of her body. For a peculiar reason, it was easier to start a her finger tips, then up her arms, then her head, then down to the tip of her toes. Beverly was extremely still and probably resembled someone sleep-standing. While she did that her mind wandered to the role as Virginia that she'd be playing. What were her thoughts? Did she stop and analyze the situation or did she decided to act immediately? Was she excited to see a dragon or did she fear for her life? This was interesting, getting into character. |
Post 1 Arista sighed all the awesome parts were taken so she had to be a muggle or a child. Yay?? Well she would be the best dang child ever! Even if she didn't have the acting experience. But how hard it could be because she just needed to point and scream her head off, right or was it different if she was a kid? "I'll be one of the various children." she said with a small shrug. Since that was all that was left. |
post 1 Wow this lesson is amazing! Lucy said:" I will be a muggle!!" Lucy put on her costume..She started to imagine the beach...She was listening to the sound of the waves and the buzz of the people... |
post 2 Angel quickly put the silly bathing suit on her, serious didn't the people from that time have any fashion sense, this could so easily work as clothing, you wanted to look nice when you were out and about on a Beach not like a clown, which she sort of felt like at the minute, if she had a red nose it would be a perfect match. Angel looked at the Professor and smiled. "I'm ready Professor." Angel thought that it would be polite to tell the professor she was ready, she was still worried about Penelope at the minute and wanted to go and get her back because she was missing all the fun but the Professor had said no and Angel wasn't going to disobey the Professor. |
Post 1 SPOILER!!: kyroh Now Ilfracombe incident sounded like something that could've happened to his grandmother; the old lady had a knack for trouble. Damian wasn't complaining, though, it made for fun storytelling times in his childhood. The boy jotted down notes to the best of his abilities; there was a lot his muggle-brain couldn't understand. Swinging his legs under him, Damian listened to the professor with mild interest. But at the mention of role-playing, his interest piqued sharply. Oh my stars! He sooooo wanted to be a dragon, or a dragon-slaying prince. The tiny first year scrambled his way over to the costumes, fighting his way through an overenthusiastic crowd. Too bad, too late. The dragon costume was gone, and all there was left was.....a bathing suit for the ladies. Damian's lower lip wibbled, eyes stinging. He looked around frantically, hoping to find the male counterpart of the weird swimwear. No such luck. He couldn't walk around the classroom donning ladies swimwear. No, no. Not happening. Buuuuut, he'd miss out on the role-playing bit. Slowly, cautiously, his tiny hand reached for the outfit, wincing upon touching the fabric as if the mere touch of it burned. Inside, he was on the verge of tears. With a surreptitious glance around, Damian began to stuff himself inside the costume, which then magically adjusted itself to fit him, eliciting a jump out of him. He'd never get used to magic. Sigh. Oh, boy. His cheeks were on fire, and he was already sweating. Okay. Deep breaths. Deep breaths. Eyes closed, the first year tried to relax, imagining himself at the beach, wearing women's swimwear, the sun blazing in all its glory. And then, out of nowhere, his grandma popped into his head, and so did an idea. He'd role play as his grandma sunbathing in Ilfracombe! Pure genius. Smiling, he made his way over to a group of muggle sunbathers, and plopped down next to a boy. Oooooh, wasn't he that Ravenclaw . . . never mind. "Here you go, deary." Damian said in sweet, quavering tones, shoving an imaginary tube of sunscreen in the boy's hand. "You don't want a nasty sunburn, now do you?" He patted the Ravenclaw's head, like his own grandma did whenever he watered her cactus. |
Post #2 So the next thing that came in all of this was grabbing his costume.............. .............. which.............. ............................ What? WHAT?! What was THIS?! Grayson held up the costume, a disgusted look crossing his face. This was freaking WEIRD. Did people actually walk around in these back in the day? Oh jeez. Poor ancestors, man. These were HORRIBLE. There was no way anyone could look even a little bit good in these things. Now scowling, the fourteen year old went to put the costume on. Just as he had expected, it was WEIRD. Especially over his uniform. He was immediately starting to regret this decision. Maybe he really should have taken the role of one of the children. He'd have looked like less of a weird one right about now. Uh huh. Not happy, he was. Regardless, he could take a little pride in knowing that he wasn't the only weird looking one out here. Smirking a little, the Slytherin closed his eyes and started taking deep breaths. He was meant to be relaxing and whatnot. Relaxing from the top of his head to the tips of his toes. And he had to think about the character he was trying to portray? Er. Couldn't he just be HIMSELF?! A version of himself back in the 1900s. He was just a background character. He was sure that it didn't MATTER. With his eyes still closed, the fourteen year old took another deep breath before deciding on portraying someone who was just sunbathing and was out to have a chill. That was all. Or play volleyball as Sophie over there had mentioned. He wouldn't be upset if they could do that. And then a giant Common Welsh Green was attacking and he had to be distraught or whatever. Distraught and upset. JEEZ, this was going to be hard. Finally opening his eyes, Grayson took another couple of deep breaths and looked around. He was ready. Uh huh. |
Agatha, Adi, Beverly and Jasmine Cris could wait for the play to get started. As he waited for the others to complete their relaxation exercises, he wandered over to join his fellow 'Wizarding family'. He chuckled at the sight of the young Slytherin who would play his character's sister-in-law and then at Adi. "Congratulations on getting married and having children. How does married life feel?" Cris teased Agatha and Adi. Then he turned to Beverly. "Hello mother," he jokingly addressed the Slytherin. So where was Jasmine? She had opted to play one of the muggle beach goers. Sighting her looking uncomfortable and awkward, he walked over to join her. "You look really nice in that bathing suit. Very...um...attractive indeed" he complimented her. "Ellis will make sure the dragon doesn't get you," he grinned, winking conspiratorially at her |
post 2 Lucy felt relaxed just like a sun-bather .. She looked at her classmates who were drinking the potion .. In the meantime she lay on the ground pretending to get a tan and stretched her legs and arms.. Lucy hoped that the dragons were coming because she could not wait to get into the part of her character! |
post 2 Annabeth looked at the others who were wearing the ridiculous beach outfits. It was boring. She needed to do something to stir things. Maybe a beach ball? She opened her rucksack and found a gobstone. She smiled mischievously, it would work. Secretly, Anna picked the gobstone, and then her wand and pointed it to the gobstone. "Engorgio!" As the small ball wasn't big enough, she cast the spell several times. When it was big enough, she cast another spell, "Pilaefors!" and the gobstone was transfigured into an old fashioned beach ball, similar to one she had seen on a picture. She grinned broadly. "Professor, as I'm a Muggle in the beach, may I play while waiting for an interest thing to happen?" She began to throw the ball up and down, when a disturbing thought popped in her mind 'and if she hadn't cast the transfiguration charm properly? and if the amazing ball burst out like a stinky gobstone?', carefuly, she put the ball on the floor carefully. Perhaps someone else would want to play...:evil: She looked around and joined the others in the beach outfits. |
Post 1 Hazel was excited to participate in this lesson. She quickly picked to be a Muggle. She'd probably never get another chance to be a totally ignorant non-magical folk, so she decided to take it. Her costume was so silly, though! Sunbathing was definitely not her thing. She walked over to the other "sunbathers", pretending to be on a beach in the hot open air. She reached into her bag and grabbed a big, floppy hat and put it on her head. That would really help her get into character! Her costume was already feeling uncomfortable, and she felt bad for the real Muggles who had to wear stuff like this. Hopefully the action starts soon, she thought to herself. That'll help pass the time in this costume. Why couldn't she have picked a different character! |
Post 3 Now then... costumed up and ready for action, which meant that really all Mo had to do was find his motivation and do the breathing activity. It was pretty hard to get into that comfortable zen place, though, when his classmates were buzzing around him. Mo found himself practicing some of his yoga breathing, retreating into that calm centered place where the buzz around him couldn't reach. Motivation? What did he suppose would be the motivation of a large, carnivorous, winged creature? If he was the dragon, why would he be attacking people on the beach? Why would he even be AT the beach? It wasn't the preferred habitat for the creature, and people weren't the preferred food source. Had he escaped from a preserve nearby? Unlikely. Perhaps it was a Gringott's dragon or one being raised well outside of its home and comfort? That was more likely and got them a lot closer to a proper motivation. If that was true, the dragon was lost, desperate, alone, and perhaps frightened. Kyroh had a point after all, and it put the situation into a new light. Mo opened his eyes and raised his hand. "Professor... what happened to the dragon? After the incident?" |
Post 1 Unlike the OTHER first year Ravenclaws, Dima was trying very hard not to look at anyone and stay silent. He felt rather awful for not saying anything when that Penelope girl in their house started scolding Kyroh, but it was hard to figure out if that was even ALLOWED when she was just defending Maddie's answer or something. Did that mean he was a bad friend? He didn't want to be a bad friend. This was... bad. Quietly, he trudged up to the front of the room and grabbed a Muggle swimsuit. Too bad he couldn't be the dragon tail, but Dima didn't mind all that much. The kid climbed into it, barely noticing when it adjusted to his size. And then he went over to where Maddie and Nigel and Kyroh were. Or mostly near Nigel. NIGEL definitely didn't think he was a bad friend, right? |

Nessa looked around the room, beaming proudly at her students. It looked like they had all gotten into costume and were really embracing becoming their characters. "Are we all ready?" she asked, looking around at them. It seemed that way to her. "Let's begin!" Eeep, she was SO excited! Banishing her podium out of the way, she turned to the front, and now empty, part of the room. Normally she would have like to have an actual set and props, but as this was a classroom exercise and not an actual show, a bit of magic would do. Waving her wand, she cast a modified daydream charm at the front of the class, making it appear to be covered in sand with a warm ocean breeze. That should last till the end of class. "Now.." she said, turning back to the class again. "We do not have a script so this will be an improvisational exercise. Act and respond how you think your character would act based on how you interpret your character." One reason why it was important to visualize their characters beforehand. And they all discussed what happened so it really shouldn't be difficult, not to mention she was there to direct if need be. "Muggles.. take the stage, so to speak. That includes you Dodgy Dirk." She gave a nod in Alexa's direction. "And the Toke family as well.. you are all on vacation at the beach. Act your part." Nessa gave them all a big beamy smile and stepped out of the way for them to get started. OOC - Thank you all for being so patient while I had family stuff today! So basically we are going to try to act out this moment in Wizarding History. You should all have your parts, which I have listed below. And if you are just jumping in now, that's ok! Just grab one of the Muggle sunbather spots, there are still plenty. We are going to start with the progressive events of scene one, where everyone is on the beach then the dragon comes to attack, the Toke family fends him off/chases him away, then they perform memory charms (just pretending today, hehe). A few posts from each person is all that's necessary, depending on how many you feel you need to get your character's actions across. To get started most people will be doing beachy things - until the dragon attacks -but remember, it is up to YOUR interpretation of the character. Please have fun with it and I'll be around for any help or questions. SPOILER!!: Cast of Characters Quote:

Post 1 Of course the dragon roles were eaten up right away. No pun intended. So, Schuyler was left to take on the part ooooof......... a muggle sunbather. Gosh, how important! Nah, she actually didn't mind. Here she could just look good in a swim suit and get points for it, yeah? Only not quite because... Because THOSE things were not swim suits. They were..... full body sailor suits! Or something. Not something that displayed the toned bods of some of her very easy-on-the-eyes peers. Or showed off her own, for that matter. Boo. With a sigh, Schuyler found her way to the costumes and pulled it down over her uniform. Rather than imagining her character just yet, she glanced around to see if Olly was wearing one. And to evaluate how good her gluteus maximus looked in the darn thing. |
Post 4: Toke Family Cris figured that the regular family going to the beach would first look for the best spot on the beach, so he started his role doing that first. Acting like he was carrying a cooler with drinks in one hand and a beach umbrella, propped up against his shoulder, he walked like as is he was trudging through sand, lifting his legs up higher as he walked. He made like he was searching for a good spot for the family. He first looked left and then off to the right and before pointing to a spot. Then he faked almost dropping the umbrella since he was pointing with the same hand that was keeping the umbrella up over his one shoulder. "Over there, everyone. I see a good spot," Cris turned to his make believe family, before walking over a little and then stopping. He then put down his fake cooler and waited for someone to put down the blanket. He would prop up the umbrella once they did that. |

Although Anna had thought it was boring to wear those ridiculous beach outfits, the sand and the warmth made her change her mind and she thought it could be fun. The girl picked up the transfigured gobstone into a beach ball and examined it carefully. It wasn't heavy enough to contain any stinky fluid into it. After shaking the ball and not hearing any noise coming from inside, she was sure the Transfiguration had worked. Relieved, she grinned and looked around. "Does somebody want to play? I have a beach ball!" and I'm a defenseless girl waiting for a dragon to attack me, she added in her thoughts. She looked expectantly at Mo and then at the sand under her feet. She wasn't supposed to look at the dragon before it would attack the muggles, right? Anna began bouncing the ball to avoid looking at Mo again. |
Post 1 Acting out history? Um...okay. Benny wasn't much of an actor and wasn't really interested in any of the more exciting parts. If he had even had the chance in grabbing them up as classmates all around him rushed to volunteer for them themselves. So he was down to being one of the random muggle sunbathers that were on the beach that day. The victims of first the dragon and then the the witches and wizards augmenting their memories with memory charms. He trudged to the box where the so-called costuming was, retrieving a swim suit for himself. Thankfully it was something to add over their clothes so he could simply put it on without any fuss. Even if he felt he looked weird in it. Ben tried his best to act normal about it, instead working on figuring out his role. His thoughts interrupted by the professor calling them all to order and setting the scene. Cue one vacationing muggle laying out on the beach reading a book. The thirteen year old moving into place. |
Agatha had decided to stop pretending she had her eyes closed and just watched as everybody else got into costumes. She was ready and didn't want to be waiting much more. Before the teacher gave new instructions, however, a Hufflepuff (Cris) came up to her and congratulated her on getting married. Blushing even more, the third year only frowned at the older boy. Who was he anyway? Why was he talking to her like that? Simon making jokes was one thing, but she didn't even know this bloke. Mother? Oh, he was playing a Toke as well. The other boy of the family. Fine, he could stay close to them. Sort of. Not too close, though. When professor whatever banished the podium and transformed the classroom into a beach, Agatha looked around and even before being impressed by the cool spell, she looked for the stage. She wanted to jump on it and start her amazing act. But oh, for now she wouldn't have to do much, just pretend she was at the beach with her 'family' and 'husband'. Ugh, husband. Always staying a few feet away from the boys she didn't know, Agatha walked to the 'beach' and flipped her hair. Hello sun, hello heat. Hi beach. And HELLO audience, look how great an actress Agatha was, thank you very much. "Right, a GOOD spot to SUNBATHE." The snake said theatrically as she projected her voice amazingly. She wanted to make sure everybody could hear her. "This IS a good spot. This NICE SUN, this very CALM beach. What could POSSIBLY happen to us here ANYWAY?" Merlin, she was good. |
Agatha kinda XD Oh! She was up too? Well of course! She was the Dodgy guy!! Lex happily put aside the breathing activity they'd been made to do earlier. Action was more like it! Lex took big steps over to what was meant to be the beach, figuring the man must have had a really big personality to not be silenced and insist on giant, dirty lizards to the detriment of his reputation with others. Most, even if they were sure what they saw, would have just quieted down about the whole thing, glad to be over it and moving on. This was, persistence at his best. There were props, yes? Good. Alexa grabbed a towel and made one big show of flopping it about a few times before laying it to rest on the 'sand'. Don't mind her, just soaking up some sun while she waited on a dragon attack--not that she was meant to know it would happen, but you got the idea. "OI! Pipe down I'm try'na get a tan over here!" Because Dodgy might have been a grumpy man, very very grumpy. That would explain why he only went to bars to tell his story, to be around other grumpy men who drank too much. Lex began some indistinct grumbling after. Perfectly in character. |
Post 2 So… she just waits here until a dragon comes to eat her? Hazel was skeptical about that. She walked over to the props, her hat rolling off her head. Maybe there would be some games or something. She looked around, but she found nothing but a beach ball. Hazel sighed and walked back over to her spot on the "beach". She laid down on the ground, pretending to sunbath. Was this really what Muggles did? Somehow she found that surprising. She wondered how long it would take for the dragon to come. Dragons could never be more appreciated. |
Post 3 Adi laughed as Cris congratulated him. "Thank you, thank you.'' He grinned at his "wife". The girl playing Tilly was the Groundskeeper's niece or something, right? He'd never spoken to her before. And he couldn't help but notice she didn't seem too happy about him playing the part of her husband. ........................................... Adi followed his "family". Sun bathing? Nooo, he'd want to get into the water.He couldn't help but admire the Professor's spell work though. Very convincing of a beach. Hehe. But why was the Snake girl shouting so much? "We hear you, Tilly,'' he called back just as loudly. Now, where were the children? "Hurry along, kids!'' |
Post #1 of acting activity Oh they were ready to start? Bri-- Look at the BEACH! Oh MAN. Grayson had forgotten all about whatever his character was meant to be like and the costume he had on -- which was still freaking weird, by the way -- as the cool, ocean breeze swept over him. To him, it was a nice day. MUCH better than the cold weather they had been having at Hogwarts because this was cool and not freezing. And he almost forgot that he was still at Hogwarts. Almost. It WAS time to start being the sunbathing Muggle he was meant to be but something had caught his attention. A ball. A ball in the hands of one Sophie Newell and the word 'volleyball'. SMIRK. This sounded like a MUCH better way of spending his time than sunbathing. He didn't particularly fancy the idea of waiting for a dragon to attack and then acting freaked out and THEN pretending that his memory had been wiped. Lame. Soooooo, he went over towards HER. Sophie. "You ready to lose?" 'Course he was inviting himself to the volleyball playing. Uh huh. And there was another girl (Annabeth) with a ball as well. Seriously, where had those come from? "Oi! Victoria!" He was giving her a name, mkay? And it was the first olden-type name to enter the Slytherin's mind. "Come play volleyball!" Expectant looks and a waving over towards the girl. |
Post 3 Cris, bless his heart, was trying to tell Jasmine how nice she looked in her horrible bathing suit. "Thank you Cris. I don't know how you could say that with a straight face." How did people ever survive at the beach in these get-ups? The Professor announced that it was time to begin their play. Jasmine tried to get into character. She was picturing herself as a young muggle girl named Mildred. She didn't know why she came up with that name or why she even needed a name for her character, but it worked for her. So Mildred/Jasmine was at the beach for a day of fun |
Post 1 A muggle. A beach-going muggle. Yep. Sign him up for the role, y’all. After donning his…beach wear, he went over to where the other muggle-beach goers were and laid on the sand…or floor. Getting his sunscreen, he slathered a good amount on his arms, legs, and face. He doesn’t want to get toasty after. Oh and don’t forget the shades. Grinning like an idiot, he whipped his sunglasses, which was too big for his face, and wore it. “Aaaaaaaaaah. Now this is the life.” And also the perfect time to take a legit nap while everyone else is being…muggly and stuff. Mhmm. |
Post #...2? Grayson + Professor Text Cut: Grayson! Ohh...so she COULD be a beach volleyball player?! AWESOME! She didn't exactly have a beach ball to play around with, but this was a skit, so maybe she could just pretend she had one. That sounded like a boring bummer, though, but she'd make do. Then the professor surprised her and conjured the materials she'd need. She even had a volleyball in her hands! "Cool! Thanks, Professor!" she said. Nevermind the fact that she'd be playing this game by herself. UGH. Did she have to pretend that part, too? Bummerrr. ...but then Grayson came up and pretty much volunteered himself to be that opposing player. "Nice way to let me know you'd like to play along," she said. By asking if she was ready to lose? "I wouldn't have expected any other way." She smirked. She got Grayson's humor. "But the answer is no..." Pause. "I'm not ready to LOSE. I'm ready to WIN." So that was her way of saying she was ready to play this game against him. "Who's Victoria?" she asked. Because whoever it was had been invited to play along. With a shrug, Sophie took her position on the opposite side of the net. With that, she served the ball, sending it soaring toward Grayson. |
Lex and Adi xD Agatha FLIPPED her hair. No, she wasn't thinking 'in character' or anything. She just flipped her hair because she was awesome, taht was all. And because of that her character was awesome and flipped her hair as well. Simple as that. The Hufflepuff kid being happy about being her husband? Well, fine then, who wouldn't be happy for playing that part? But still, eek. Then a girl started SHOUTING at her and Agatha shot her a glare. Then she remembered she was in a play and they were just acting. Hmph. Fine. She'd play along. "Well, we are going to tan TOO." She let the other person know. The older girl was playing a Muggle, right? So Agatha shouldn't mention anything about magic to her. Him. Sheesh, that was confusing. The Hufflepuff kid playing her husband let her know he had heard her. "Okay, good to KNOW..." What was his character name again? Uhh..... "...''''''''huusbaand''''''''." She made sure to do the quotation marks with her fingers. She spread a towel on the sand in front of her and then flopped down on it to tan. ...Wait, she wasn't really going to get a sunburn, right? Becaue she didn't have any sunscreen and that wasn't healthy at all. "Is the sun going to burn us for real?" She lifted her head and was suddenly out of character, speaking to her fake-husband. |
Post 2 Alright so he was a beach going muggle. He could handle this. He could act this out. He heard Sophie offer to play beach volleyball, he grinned and thought that was a great activity to do. He got up and dressed up in his costume of a bathing suit. It seemed a little uncomfortable but hey he had to play his part right? As he made his way he noticed Grayson was playing volleyball. He asked him, "Hey dude I wanna play some volleyball! Which team or side should I go on?" he asked him. |
Post #3 :: Toke Family Her character had children, which meant SHE had children. Beverly was coming to terms with this as an older student (Chris) referred to her as his mother. A hand flew to her mouth to cover a snort. It wasn't lady-like, but that sounded SO weird. "Hello, son," she said with her most adult-ish voice. "You've grown quite a bit." LOL. 'Cause he was a giant and she was tiny and...this shouldn't amused her. Suddenly the classroom changed to that of a beach scene. The first thing that popped into Beverly's head was Australia, then she reminded herself she was in class and this had to be the source of a charm. Maybe the Daydream Charm Professor Fuller had talked about last term. Glancing around the Toke family, Beverly followed suit of her 'son.' Merlin. That still sounded so silly. Time to play along! Lifting her robes just above her ankles, pretending her robes were much too expensive to get sand on them, she shaded her face with her hand and squinted in the direction (Chris) suggested. "Are you sure that's a good spot...son?" She was a mother. Mother's said son, soooo...there. Brilliant acting, Wayne! There was Tilly (Agatha). Beverly had to fight another snort. The girl was into this, wasn't she? "You think it's nice?" she asked. "I don't want to get hit with a..." she pretended to shoot a disgusted look in Sophie's direction, which wasn't really acting. She didn't like THAT girl, "beach ball." There was a lot of talking and a man (Lex, though she was acting a male's part, so she was a man for the time being), Beverly dramatically threw her arms up in the air the way her aunts did when their children could decided on something. "Lets just go sit somewhere. I want my tan." Yes, listen to mummy. Now. |
Something is coming Okay. Dragon. Mo was a dragon. Where was his tail person? He took up a spot far to the side of his sunbathing compatriots, jogging in place and otherwise trying to get into the head of his character. That's what this was about, right? He was meant to understand the historical account from those who were there. Including the dragon. Mo opened his mouth to express his thoughts about these motivations before coming up against one of the hardest parts about playing a dragon. Dragons can't talk. He couldn't express how he was feeling. FRUSTRATING. Anyway. ANYWAY, his peers were waiting, so Mo stepped up to the edge of the sand and spread his arm!wings, pretending to balance there precariously. The ground is so hot. What is this unusual place. It isn't my home. Cue the frustrated squawking noises. Sunbathers beware. Something big is coming. |
we have permission. :) and erm post #1 ? Quote:
He should at least have a surfboard and they should have some real waves, then it'd really be a class to reme----- "Whoa!" Thoughts interrupted!!! Jeremiah TRIPPED over some kid who was laying RIGHT where his feet were walking!! Couldn't he WAIT intill they were all over here!? Tumbling to the ground next to the kid he let out a bigger sigh than before. "oh no, i have tripped over a man tanning in the sand." he flailed his arms slightly at his side as he spoke in a low mono toned voice so that the main actors could be heard. ".................." he was not amused. and he was also on the floor already which worked out in his favor as he just laid there still as a board next to his friend here who tripped him. yo. |
Oooh, they were starting now! Seeing the dragon take his place in the production, Lux quickly joined in taking her place behind him. Since there was no stick with a tail on it for her to wave around, some improvise was needed. Grabbing the tail, she started moving it around because why not. Dragons moved their tails around. And since tails couldn't talk, she wasn't required to do any speaking or make any dragon sounds. That was for Mo to do! Moving around with the dragon, she continued to play with his tail. Hehehe, this was fuuuuuuun. DRAGONS WERE AWESOME. |
Toke Family and Dragon "Hey wait a minute? Everybody wants to tan? Then why in Merlin did you all make me bring this umbrella? I could have brought more another basket of healthy food with lots of protein and carbs in it!," Cris chimed up. Yes he was an adult and so he had to eat healthy. He needed to keep his trim, muscular body in shape. And a nice golden tan would go match superbly too. Cris faked tossing the umbrella on the ground before following his family. "Mother (Beverly), this here is a good spot. It's far from the beach balls and the children can play on the sand while Tilly (Agatha) watches over them," Yes you Tilly, the mother who should be more concerned about the safety and amusement of her kids than with sun-tanning. Sisters-in-laws were definitely a handful. "Thomas,(Adi) Can we please decide on a place before the entire beach gets filled up?" Cris turned to his character's 'older brother'. Then Cris hears Mo making his dragon sounds. Wait dragon's squawk? Cris thought as he chuckled to himself. He faked a frown and began looking around him. "Did anyone hear that? It sound like a huge bird!" Cris called out to his family. |
Look at this group of claws being sunbathers. Either they went because their friends were being in the same group or that it was the most awesome role besides the dragon. Well time to get to the acting part. Seems like Anna and Grayson were playing some game or another. fun stuff. But Nigel being the muggle he is for this thing. Decided to sunbath and get a tan. Plus rock the awesome swim suit he was wearing. Yeah check out Nigel sunbathing not caring that soon a dragon named Mo will try to roast him alive or something. Too many details |
Toke Family "Thomas" tossed Agatha a grin. "Yes, dear, but don't go around shouting. Don't you think the other families will get annoyed with you?'' And was she out of character for that last bit about the sun, right? "Uhh, I'm not sure.'' He was out of character there. Adi stifled another laugh as Cris spoke up about the umbrella and food. Merlin, he was doing an awesome job! "Right, Ellis.'' Adi "shaded" his eyes with his hands and pretended to scan the beach. "How about over there?'' he said pointing over to a spot where a few muggles were playing volleyball. But there was plenty of room for the family without disturbing the others or the others disturbing them. "It's a good spot,'' he added firmly. "Let's go.'' Adi turned back at the sound of Cris's voice. "Hear what, Ellis? All I'm hearing are those muggles over there.'' Was Ellis hearing things? |
Zander looked around waiting for his cue. Oh wait... Were they starting already?! But he hadn't even had the chance to get in character! Well, aside from this hideous swimsuit. The Gryffindor looked around and noticed all his other fellow muggles on the beach. He watched as few engaged in a fun game of volleyball and others just sat in the sun. Hmm. What to do what to do? SANDCASTLE! Zander ran over to the, ahem, stage and began building a sandcastle. Whenever he went to the beach sandcastles were his favorite thing to do. Glancing over, he noticed the dragon taking it's position in the corner. And there's Lux as the tail! Still he'd rather just watch than have to actually act this all out... Hmpm. Stupid rules. |
Text Cut: Sophie, Kace and mentions of Annabeth and the dragon! He was someone in the 1900s. Someone. In the. 1990s! Which meant that they wouldn't use such slang. SIGH. This was going to be HARD. "Of course, fair lady," he said, bowing his head slightly, "Needless to say, it's the best way." What were they talking about again? Apparently winning or losing. P S H. WhatEVER, Newell. "It'll be rude to point out to a maiden that she's wrong," LOL. Yeah, right! "so I'm going to let you find out for yourself." WAS this the right way to speak? Who knew. And then came Kace! Who was calling him............ dude. DUDE. Grayson slapped the Hufflepuff on his arm. "That's SIR to you!" Fake!HMPH. "And you can team up with Victoria over there," he said, nodding over towards Annabeth. He probably knew her, anyways, since they were in te same house and whatnot. Meanwhile, sup Sophie, we're joining you. Double the awesome. As for who Victoria was, he was NOT going to answer. Why? Because they were getting started and this was MUCH more important, thank you very much. ................... What was THAT?! BOIIIIIIIING! "OW!" he called, rubbing the back of his head where the BALL HAD RICOCHETED OFF OF. Yeah, that's right. A ball had bounced off of his head! What a blow to his ego. But ANYWAYS. There was no time to think about that because he was SURE that that was the sound of the dragon. There was no BIRD over here. None that he knew of, anyways. But since he couldn't see the dragon and he was SURE that his character wouldn't think that there was a dragon here, he was going to have to brush it aside. No looks of glee because dragons. SIGH. This was HARD. Instead, his character was going to pretend that he had heard things OR that it was nothing major and carry on with the game. Yeah. Collecting up the ball, he looked over at Sophie. "Hey! We're on the same TEAM." Meaning, let's try and WIN. And with that, he served the ball over towards the other side. The Hufflepuff-but-not-really side. |
Post 2 SPOILER!!: Jere What? WHAT??! “Ooof! Hey, watch it!” cue the acting and whatnot. “How can you not see ME in my BOOTIFUL swimwear???” he asked as he removed his pretend sunglasses violently and sat up. “Oi.” He said as he threw his arms up in the air and flopped back down, then rolled to the side. “I’ll forget that you tripped on me if you got any pizza with you, dude.” Because food is the next best thing to naps, you see? Real or not, however, Ethan was oblivious to Dragon Mo. Lying down was soooo much better. |
All you awesome volleyball players Text Cut: hermionesclone "Fair lady?" she asked, confused. Was he saying she needed a tan?! HOW RUDE. "We are NOT the Muggle Sunbathers." Because they were the ones getting a tan, right? Pause. She didn't really need a tan, though, did she? For a split second, Sophie glanced down to check out the tone of her skin. Okay, she was good. Not dark or anything, but not a fair lady. "A maiden?" What had gotten into Grayson all of the sudden? Sophie looked around. This Victoria, whoever she was, was apparently playing volleyball with them. At least she was on Kace's team, because Sophie hadn't the slightest clue who Victoria was. Okay, so she was on Grayson's team. "Scared I was going to beat you after all?" she asked with a smirk. She was NOT following that up with the word 'Sir'. And then... BWAH HAHAHA! Grayson had gotten struck with the volleyball, which pretty much made Sophie's day. It had been HILARIOUS. She tried to stifle a laugh as she watched Grayson collect the ball and serve it to the other side. "Sorry, Grayson," she said with a laugh. "That was funny, though...wasn't it?" Hmm? Hmm? Then there was the dragon. "What's that squawking noise?" she asked to nobody in particular. |
Post 2 SPOILER!!: Grayson! :3 ALRIGHT GAME TIME!! Kace got his direction from Grayson and he went over to see the girl Annabeth. He smiled towards her. She did look familiar and nodded. "I am Kace.." Incase she forgotten his name or they never met before. Who knows? But he was prepared for some volleyball! Then he noticed Grayson was hit in the head. HAHAAHH!! He couldn't' help but chuckle at it. He smiled at Grayson but he seemed ready. He was even versing Sophie. Now this was gonna be fun! He grinned and got in his stance. What they didn't know was he was a great volleyball player. He took some lessons and plus he played with his cousins during the summer. He made sure Annabeth was prepared. "You ready!?" he asked her. But before she could respond, he noticed the ball was going over the net and he bumped it over while he dived at it. |
Mo's tail showed up, and he turned around to give her a broad grin. Hullo, there, tail. Oh. No grinning. No. Focus on staying in character. His grin disappeared and was replaced by that confused!dragon expression he was trying to adopt. Hopefully, his buddy-with-the-tail would understand that they were staying in character here. The sunbathers were still gathering, and Mo didn't want to rush them along... but he was a dragon and dragons didn't wait until everyone was settled. Mo swished a bit of the potion in his mouth, without swallowing it, and breathed a little puff of fire to test. Perfect. Ready, sunbathers? Time for the shock of your old fashioned lives. Oh, character, though. The ground is hot. It's noisy here, and not at all like my peaceful forest. Perhaps I'll fly out and land further down the beach, but if all those little wriggly human things start to scream and run around, it'll scare me and I'll go berzerkers. Ready, tail? Mo lifted his arms again and was suddenly bearing down on the group of sunbathers. LOOKINGFORAPLACETOLANDMAKINGNOISEBREATHINGFIRE. ROOOOOOOOOOOAR. |
Dragon!boy was smiling at her. Dragons weren't SUPPOSED to smile. And she wanted to smile BACK at him, but tails didn't smile EITHER. Pout. Staying in character, Lux kept her movements as in-sync with dragon!boy as possible. BE THE TAIL, LUX. Be the best tail that anyone has ever acted as in a performance. Ooooooh, fire! That was so awesome and had to be the same potion that Professor Culloden had taught them last term. Time for them to swoop in on the unsuspecting sunbathers; Lux eagerly adopted the positions she was sure that a dragon's tail would take while preparing to burn people to a crisp from the sky. RWAAAAAAAAAAAR. |
The Tokes Mother. Beverly blinked in (Chris')direction. RIGHT. She was his MUM. Come're sonny boy "'Tis is a good spot...son. Please be a dear and set up a towel for me." She smiled at him forcefully and batted her eyelashes. That's what mum's did, right? She wouldn't know. Wait, did sonny boy here hear something? Beverly!Virginia raked the skies and-- GASP! "That's not a bird, it's a dragon!" Beverly!Virginia's eyes were wide with surprise and mock fear (she LOVES dragons, it was more like excitement, but shhh!) as she pointed up at the creature. Oh dear. What would they ever do?! |
The Slytherin gave her ''''husband'''' a look. Didn't he know she wasn't shouting, but projecting her voice? Merlin, what an amateur. And he didn't know whether the sun was truly going to burn them or not. That was bad news. But well, Agatha was already lying down tanning, so she didn't know what those other Toke family people were fussing over. And kids? What kids? The snake looked up at the Hufflepuff playing... whoever he was playing, and used her hand to block the sunlight from going STRAIGHT into her pretty eyes. Ouch. What was he talking about anyway? Did Tilly have kids? She didn't know that. Or maybe she did and forgot about it. Agatha looked around, trying to find out who amongst those other people was playing her 'kids' when she heard a very odd squawking noise. .....It wasn't time yet though, was it? The Slytheirn looked around and noticed no one was reacting to the noise yet, so she decided to let it pass too. Though maybe her classmates were just being silly and getting too much into character and were actually thinking about sunbathing and playing volleyball. Silly people. Oh! OH! THE DRAGON WAS COMING. Agatha jumped up at once and... didn't know what to do next. There was a bunch of Muggles around, were they supposed so whip their wand out and start jinxing the dragon or what? ...Alright, those people sunbathing should stop it NOW because there was a DRAGON coming. Agatha theatrically rushed towards them and gestured around. "Watch out!" Geestuuressss. Bee carefullll. The girl kept gesturing away as if to get them out of the way of the dragon. Moooooveeeee, Muggleessss. |
Post 4 Jasmine (alias: Mildred) relaxed and enjoying the lovely ocean breeze. She peered over the top of her pretend book and watched her fellow muggle sunbathers in action. She saw people playing volleyball, one person tripping over another and a few people who were talking rather loudly. Not a lot of interesting action going on if she did say so herself. Jasmine was looking bored because she was beginning to think that nothing exciting would happen on her trip to the beach. At just that moment, Jasmine began to hear a roaring sound and it was not the ocean. The dragon players had started their pre-terrorizing run. The roaring was getting louder and louder and Jasmine looked around in confusion, trying to locate the source of the sound. |

Zander added one final touch to his castle, and TADA! It is beautiful. MHM. It could definitely give Hogwarts a run for it's money. Now, to move on to another beautiful sand creation. Would could he make next? Perhaps he could create a whole sand village! AHH. Before he could even lift up his shovel, he noticed the dragon making it's way overhead. Uh oh. BUT-BUT-BUT HE WASN'T NEARLY DONE WITH HIS SAND CITY! Couldn't they just prolong this bit of the scene for a tad moreeee? Pleaaaaseeee? Wait. Zander didn't care about a sand village. Woah. He was really starting to get into character. Maybe this acting business isn't too bad after all? So uhum, what was a muggle supposed to do in reaction to a dragon? ... Scream? So yes, Zander let out a HUGE SCREAM in terror. There. He had done his part. Can he leave now? |
SPOILER!!: Damian The Professor was saying something but Kyroh didn't hear at all. You know why? Because there WAS no History of Magic Professor on a MUGGLE beach, alright? But what there was, was lack of sunscreen. He was going to burn! Into a crisp! Burrrrrn. Buuuuurrn. Why had his parents thought it had been a good idea to go to the beach. What could be worse. He was even going to start rolling around in the sand because maybe THAT would help but then a boy sat down beside him and held out his hand. Wait- boy. Girl Swimsuit? Kyroh blinked. Shaky voice boy.... in a girl swimsuit? ....Deary? .........Head pat? WAS HE PLAYING AN OLD LADY!? The idea was genius. Why hadn't he thought of that? Suddenly the whole incident from earlier evaporated from Kyrohs brain. "No I do not! Thank you sir!-Ma'am! Ma'am sir!.....Lady." Thanks LADDDY. "Morty Mortimer thanks you!" Because that was his Muggle name. Yup. He had decided right there and then because...well it sounded old and Mugglelike. The first year GRINNED at the other boy and pretended to squeeze the imaginary bottle of sunscreen and rubbed it on his arms and legs. He was JUST about to be finished when he heard a squawking noise? "AH is that my neck?! Is my neck burning up Madam!?" Bad bad bad! He couldn't go home with a sunburnt neck! But then someone yelled watch out. Watch out for wha-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!?!??! WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS THAT!?!? "IT'S A-CREATURE-LIKE-LIZARD-LIKE THINGY MO-BOB!!!!!!! It was uh- what was that creature that Muggles were scared of? Not dragons but that giant lizard. Kyroh paused to think about the name...it was....it was........"IT'S GODZILLA!!!" Kyroh yelled out jumping to his feet and pointing to the sky. Wait....was Godzilla created in the 1930's?....."But if Godzilla isn't a thing yet just ignore me and stuff. AHH FLYING LIZARD THINGY RUN!" Yeah. He covered that up nicely. Annnnnd now it was time for Morty Mortimer to leave! He turned about to go but- OLD LADY! "Ma'am. We might be eaten and stuff. I think we should run. And if you don't want to run....i'm gonna run so thanks for the sun screen." |
and Zander So Leah had to be a muggle sunbather. She would have loved a more important character, but oh well this was fine too. Pulling on the bathing suit, she turned around once and looked down at her appearance before getting into character immediately. Carrying a beach towel, she walked towards the beach and lay down on the sand. It was warm unlike the real temperature and Leah felt like staying here forever. But then the dragon came. The second year pretended to wake up from a nap and looked around lazily. Then she did a double take at the dragon and opened her eyes wide. Cue a scream. "Aaaaaaahhh!" she stood up, fell down once (yes she was a good actress) and spotted a Ravenclaw boy yelling. "It's a GODZILLA! What's a Godzilla?" she yelled. But she ran in the opposite direction anyway, grabbing someone (Zander)'s hand on the way. "Come on, bro, don't just sit there waiting for Godzilla or something to kill you." The girl pulled the boy along with her. |
Angel was just sunbathing, well that was what you did at a beach, it was either that or have a massive party but since the Professor probably wouldn't like her classroom all messed up she decided that she would just do a few girly stuff on the beach, instead of doing all the funny stuff. Angel was sunbathing when suddenly she saw something big in the sky, at first she thought it was a bird but then she realised it was too big to be a bird, okay she could scratch bird of the list, was it a plane, now maybe that was what it was but this plane looked weird if it was, maybe the military was trying out a new type of plane, that was secret but then again the papers were normally all over things like that. Was it a? O_____________________o Had someone said It's a GODZILLA? Now who was being so daft, it couldn't be Godzilla. But hang on. O_______________o "GUY It's a DRAGON!!!!!!" Angel was scared now, "EVERYONE IT'S A DRAGON!!" Angel was now feeling more happy. "NO ONE IS GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!!" Weren't Dragons not real? though some people said they were but she didn't believe them. "I'm dreaming right?" Angel didn't know if to run away or towards the water, Dragons didn't like water right, and there was no way one could out run a dragon right. |
Lucy was lying quiet when she saw the sky darken.. She thought it was a cloud,but she opened her eyes and she remained petrified.. It was not a cloud but a huge animal that looked like a dragon.. In the meantime someone was screaming and Lucy looked around.. She wanted to run away but her legs were blocked by fear.. Lucy began to shout:"HELP!!! THERE IS A DRAGON! A DRAGON IS COMING!! HELP!!!!! Mom, Dad where are you!! SOMEONE HELP ME!!!" |
Post 2 (Toke family) What a wonderful day on the beach! The eight year old ran around the beach without a care in the world. The sand was in between her toes, and she giggled as her hair blew out behind her. The water looked enticing and she wanted so badly to go and splash herself clean in it. Looking around for her siblings and parents, it seemed like the coast was clear. Knowing good and well that her parents would most likely be mad if she ventured too far into the water she decided to keep pretty close to the shore. Cool water washed the sand off of her feet and she immediately threw her whole body in the water and splish splashed. This was the life. |
Post 1 "Acting" So they were getting started, then? Maddie was impressed with the whole beach scene that was going on. She hadn't properly been to the beach since she was small so it was nice to have that background to work with though she WAS curious about how the professor had managed this. Could she learn TOO? Turning their dorm room into a jungle might be fun. Perhaps she'd ask about it at the end of class or something. Yeah. Deciding that what HER character was going to do was RELAX, the small first year took a seat in the "sand" and propped herself up on her elbows, watching the people playing volleyball with mild interest. Well she WAS watching until her buddy, Mo the dragon, came storming the beach in all his dragony glory. WELL, time to panic, she guessed. Standing up, the twelve year old stood frozen to the spot. People froze when they were afraid, yeah? Yeah, so this was totally legit. She made her brown eyes big and she made her chin wobble because there was a BIG THING coming towards her and she'd NEVER seen one of those before EVER but she'd IMAGINED them in her DREAMS and she DIDN'T want to get EATEN but she was TOO afraid to move! Gosh, talk about good acting! Maybe she'd get a dramatic death scene if this kept up. Something worthy of an award, clearly. Was Mo going to stomp her? |
SEAGULL, POST 1 + whatever Claw. Since Zahra couldn't be the dragon, which was the most disappointing thing to happen to her... ever - Zahra chose to be a seagull. NOT A BEACH WITHOUT A SEAGULL. So while everyone jumped at being muggles, Zahra was taping parchment WINGS to her arms. Now that the dragon was on the scene, Zahra FLEW IN. Haha! She made sure to "POOP" on all the Ravenclaws, especially the ones with their MOUTHS OPEN IN SCREAMS. Seagulls weren't afraid of dragons. Seagulls and dragons were friends. "YOU JUST GOT POOPED ON, CAW CAW TWEET TWEET," Zahra told whatever Ravenclaw happened to be nearby. In BIRD, she told the BEACH GOERS that a dragon was coming, "CAWWWWWWWWW CAWWWWWWWW CAAAWWWW HAHAHA CAW CAW TWEETILY TWOOOO." |
Toke Family Cris first heard his 'mother' correct him on that huge bird assumption. "Oh it's a dragon, right. DRAGON!! What? Where??" Cris allowed his character to finally comprehend what his character's mother was telling him. By now he could see what some of the other 'muggles' were seeing. Cris held back a laugh when he saw Mo approaching in his dragon suit, with his 'tail' (Lux) following closely behind waving her stick 'tail'. Okay, this was the time for the Toke family to shine!! Cris immediately leaped up from the 'blanket' he was sitting on. "Tilly, (Agatha), Thomas (Adi) where are the children? Mother, the muggles are in danger. We need to protect them. What should we do?," Cris asked his 'mother' (Beverly)." |
Caleb had so much fun watching everyone act like loons that he almost forgot to do the acting himself! How could it be helped though, with one child crying out about Godzilla and Zahra pretending to poop on people? It was hysterical! Was she filming them with a camera? Oh, he hoped so! But right, he had to get into his part! He quickly scrambled into his costume - which was an absolutely atrocious swimming costume from the 30s, gosh this must have been a PAIN when it got all wet - and then ran into the action. "DRAGON?! HOLY COW, JEEPERS, GREAT SCOTT, IT IS A DRAGON! AND LOOK OUT FOR THE SEAGULL! THEY MIGHT BE WORKING TOGETHER TO CAUSE CHAOS AND DESTRUCTION!" he cried before running and hiding behind Sophie in a dramatic fashion. He was so good at acting. |
Post 3 (Toke family) AJ was enjoying her character. She continued on splashing in the water, and when it was apparent that screams were happening she finally turned her head to see what all the fuss was about. "Ohhh... look a dragon." Where was her family exactly? Did they even realize that she was kind of missing? Well, she knew where she was and the beach wasn't that big, but considering there was a dragon on the loose she figured her parents would be looking for her. More than likely they would be concerned with the whole dragon eating the muggle volleyball players things, but meh this water was nice. |
Thomas heard all of the shouting and frantically searched around for the cause. Seeing everyone looking up at the skies he did so too only to catch sight of...A DRAGON! Merlin! They were in trouble! Not only them but the muggles too. "Tilly! Grab the kids!'' Oh look! One of them was by the water (AJ). Adi/Thomas raced over to her and grabbed her hand. "No time to play in the water.'' Holding her by the hand, he pulled her over to the rest of the family. "Ellis is right. We should help them but someone needs to get the kids to safety.'' Any volunteers? |
Post 4 (Tokes) Quote:
Realizing that a dragon was a big deal, she decided to let her dad pull her up by her arm, and not fight him on it. "What are we going to do? Will he eat us?" Or burn us alive with her fiery dragon breath? |
Agatha, too. Text Cut: Caleb! Sophie was busy watching the volleyball soar over the net and waiting for it to be served back to her side. This part wasn't acting. The part where she was really getting into this volleyball game was real. She almost forgot this was History of Magic class and that she was acting out a skit in which she, a Muggle, was about to get attacked by a random dragon. It was all thanks to her brother that she suddenly remembered. She heard him before she saw him. Then she felt him move behind her in a hiding position. Was her Muggle self meant to know Caleb's Muggle self? She decided to go with no. "Who are YOU?" she asked, turning around to look at him. "What do you mean dragon? There's no such thing as dragons." Somebody had been watching too many Disney movies. Then Muggle Sophie turned out to spot the dragon. WHAAAA. "Dr...Dra...DRA---RUN!" she exclaimed. She flailed around so much that she didn't notice herself randomly punch one of beach balls across the way. It sailed through the air and toward that Agatha girl she'd seen once or twice in classes and in the common room. Oops. She'd apologize later, but for now--DRAGON! |
Post 2 "Acting" and seagull and flailing arms POOPED ON, really? "Seagulls can't talk." Maddison ROLLED her eyes at the seagull that was the Gryffindor girl who'd threatened to give swirlies to Ravenclaws. She was QUICKLY becoming someone the small brunette would very much like to see eaten by a dragon. Could Mo come over and "nom" her or? And okay, Dima had said he was related to this person in some kind of way but STILL. Maddie wasn't a fan. NOT that she showed it. She was going to IGNORE the bird. Weren't seagulls like the rats of the bird world or something? Seemed legit that THAT girl would BE one. YUP. Snapping out of her "frozen shocked state", the first year headed off into the crowd of people running from the "dragon". She waved her arms in the air a bit for dramatic effect and MIGHT have whacked a classmate on accident in the process but there was a DRAGON! This is what happens when the creatures wind up on beaches with muggles. |
At last, the class was all in costume and had begun to take their places on the set. Nessa watched intently as the scene began to unfold - the Muggle vacationers, along with the Wizarding Toke family, all doing beachy things and happily unaware of the danger about to befall them. Oh the suspense! And what amazing little performers she had! All doing such a wonderful job of getting into character.. she could really believe that she was at the beach in 1932. She beamed at and nodded approvingly here and there at the students as they continued acting their parts.. her brown eyes soon snapped to the side of the room as the dragon began to make himself known. This was so exciting! Her hand balled into a fist in front of her mouth, she bit on her knuckle as she watched the action unfold. And then.. a seagull? How inventive! Nessa beamed approvingly at Zahra as she acted out the part, then turned her eyes on the 'Muggles' and the 'Tokes' as they began to react accordingly. Such chaos!! She was so pleased that she wanted to applaud how well they were doing, but she didn't dare just yet, not wanting to snap anyone out of character. OOC - You guys are doing amazing! *squishes you all* We should next be moving into the Toke family fending off the dragon (no real spells of course lol), then taking care of the Muggles.. then we'll move onto the next scene. I do need to close this class tomorrow night, so we have about 34 hours to finish up. Keep up the great work! *loves* |
Angel was laughing. "A dragon, here at a beach?" Angel had decided she was daydreaming and would wake up any minute. "Why would a dragon, go to the one place it didn't want to be, near water." Angel just stood there looking at it. "Seriously everyone a dragon hates water, it's just a new fangled plane that the Military are working on in secret, something to scare everyone to death with." She had said what was on her mind, no way was a dragon at this beach, no sire, no chance what so ever was a dragon at this beach. |
Post #3 Text Cut: Sophie and Kace and Caleb and DRAGON Compliment a girl and they start looking at the finer details of the compliment instead of actually accepting it. JEEZ. Grayson looked over at Sophie and raised his eyebrows. Of course they weren't the sunbathers. He wasn't DUMB. "Sign of respect." Wink. Soooooo there was nothing to take offence from it. None whatsoever. And to show that, the fourth year shot a smile her way before focusing on wherever the ball was. He had this being a 1900s muggle person acting under control. Uh huh. Which was in Kace's hands. After the boy, and Sophie had a good ol' laugh at him. Good to know, guys. He resisted the urge to laugh himself and, instead, shook his head. See? He wasn't even MAD. Mainly because the girl had said SORRY. "Yeah yeah, MAYBE it was funny. Maybe I SHOULD be scared of--" ..................................... DRAGON! FREAKING YE-- Wait. No. Muggle person, remember? Someone who would be SCARED of the awesome creature that the older Ravenclaw and Lux were portraying. SIGH. Right. Freak out? FREAK. OUT. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! DRAGOOOOOOOOON!" Cue some overdramatic flailing and pointing over towards the SCARY MAGICAL CREATURE OVER THERE. "Somebody doooooooooooo something!" Like NOW, thank you, otherwise his character person was going to scream himself hoarse. He hated this. HE wanted to be the one fending off the dragon. And why was the other boy hiding behind Sophie? Could he hide as well? No. Instead, he was going to panic. Uh huh. More frantic flailing or whatever. |
