This tree has stood on the grounds of Hogwarts for centuries. Beneath, it hides the Shrieking Shack and if you're feeling lucky enough you can try your luck finding and knocking the little knot that makes the tree still. Otherwise, be careful, this tree will whomp without prejudice and has been known to take on anything that has gotten too close to its branches and base.
It should be perfectly fine if you stand at a safe enough distance while admiring the beauty of the half dead looking tree just see to it that you don't throw stones as it has been known to hit back. Around the tree is a nice little area one might come to study in the relative piece and quiet or even catch up on some sleep.
Chyeeeah, she was probably right that there wouldn’t be any modelling scouts near a tree. Especially a tree that hit everything that came near it. “I think the butterfly garden is perfect for my fine features” he smiled as he looked at the whomping willow swishing around. Was someone trying to get close to it? “But it’s not just modelling that I want to try when leaving this place, I also want to learn about wandlore” it fascinated him.
Yoongi beamed positively when Melek said that his name was cute but then a frown appeared on his face. “Why is she your ex best friend?” or was that rude to ask? He only just met her…but he was curious! Curious Yoongi
Wait wait wait, she thought his name was cute AND that the meaning of his name fitted him? Was she for real or just being polite? But before he could whine she suddenly squealed out loud and the Gryffindor jumped a little bit. He was never prepared when someone else did that other than him. “No one ever got that?” he asked in surprise. “I…thought it was pretty obvious.. guess I have some Ravenclaw in me as well” heh. “What year are you in by the way?”
She had a point that the sorting hat saw hidden qualities in each person that was sorted in their houses. And he didn’t think that the Hat was wrong by sorting him in Gryffindor, he had simply been surprised because he always only thought of Hufflepuff. “Adi the Prefect told me that it’s rare hearing a Gryffindor say they had hoped for Hufflepuff” he laughed shortly at the memory. “But I asked the Hat to put me in Hufflepuff but it still chose Gryffindor in the end “ Maybe he was destined to save the world one day and be humble about it?
“Eh…” Yoongi scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment as a small blush appeared on his face. “True, I’m not really a history buff. Even at Charms School, because I live in the future” meaning that he was constantly thinking ahead and was already busy with his future plans to be prepared. After listening to the story, Yoongi looked from the Tree to Melek and back to the Tree again. “And people actually try to get near it not knowing how to calm it?” he shook his head. “Idiots…” he might be a Gryffindor but he wasn’t the foolishly reckless type. “You ever tried it?” he asked just out of curiousity. Curious Yoongi~
She looked at him and analyzed his features before slowly nodding. "Yeah... I can see that." Mel smiled at him, "I would be happy to take photos or sketch you if you need head-shots or something to pass out to modeling agencies..." Melek shrugged. She turned her head slightly to watch the moving Whomping Willow. The movements were memorizing. Mel got lost in the movements, relaxing before the boy started to talk again. Melek blinked and looked at him. "Wandlore? That would definitely be interesting and challenging..." Mel nodded, "I either want to do something with history or potions..." She debated before the boy started to talk again.
She shrugged, "We got into a fight a few years back because she would not shut up about some boy that she was crushing on or stop lecturing me about how i should be grateful that I wasnt living in an orphanage when i complained how my parents didnt even pay attention to me all summer because they just sent me away to live with a random relative for all of it when I didnt even know the relative." Melek took a huge breath after saying all that then glanced down. "Too be honest... I miss her a lot..." A sigh escaped and she looked at the boy.
Melek giggled as the boy seemed to jump a little. "No one got it and i keep hearing 'like the bird?' whenever I tell them I am from Turkey." Mel grumbled and sighed, putting her chin in her hands and her elbows on her knees. She watched the boy, finding him really interesting. "I think that everyone has some of each of the houses in them..." Her hair blew into her eyes and she shook her head to get it back out of her face. "I am a seventh year and you?" The boy seemed to be a little younger than her but she was not going to go about assuming anything else... she had only gotten lucky about his house.
"I think it is rare for anyone to want to be a Hufflepuff... I mean what is the quality of Hufflepuff?" She pondered the question, "Ravenclaw is intelligence. Gryffindor is courage. Slytherin is cunning... and Hufflepuff is... the odd one out?" Melek shrugged and thought about it, "I suppose they have kindness and loyalty... which are good qualities I hear but I always hear about how everyone wants Gryffindor and no other house just because of the famous history of the house..." Mel rolled her eyes, "I dont get it but then again I wanted to be in Ravenclaw because of my parents... I was hoping it would make them proud of me... I guess not though..." She sighed and rest her chin back in her hands. "I suppose the sorting hat knew that you would fit in and be better in Gryffindor despite your wishes to be in Hufflepuff..." Melek didnt know what else to say to that.
"Living in the future just causes stress... constant worry and stuff... I rather live in the present personally..." Mel thought about it. "Though history repeats itself which is why I like to study it... figure out what is happening and what will happen. It will also teach us how to avoid the mistakes of our ancestors." Melek shifted into being cross-legged now and started to braid her hair absentmindedly. "Oh yeah... stupid people who claim to be courageous make a game out of who can get closest without getting hit... I find it incredbily dumb though whatever floats their boats, ya know?" Mel finished the braid and tied her hair in a knot so that it would hold the braid before looking at the guy again. "No... I never tried it... and if I was going to try it, I would do my research and figure out how to calm it before even thinking of attempting it..." Melek tilted her head, "Have you?"
The voice, he was there…Puck grinned up at him and gave him a bit of a face, a purposeful pout to her lips and a perfectly placed sigh would have given him a good sign to her mood right? She was sure of it. But this wasn’t a mood she was used to so she wasn’t sure of anything she didn’t even know what she was talking about or thinking or really doing? Was this life?
“Oh really? You were across the tree?” She laughed, “I guess I was too lazy to move from my spot,” she laughed and grinned over to him. “Kace…I have a question” she practically whined, unintentionally but still she was whining and that was nothing like the cool prefect she had made everyone think she was. She wasn’t cool. She was pathetic.
“I need your advice…and because aparecium keeps calling you Puffanova…maybe you’re a good person to ask?” She asked and grinned over to him only a dash of her usual sass flavored her words.
“And I guess you could say something is the matter…I’ve been thinking and we know how bad that can be,” she grinned over to him before taking a deep breath… “sometimes…” she paused and turned her attention to the tree. It was easier to address the tree than it was to address him really. “I’ve just…I’ve been weird lately…weird for me? Normal for well, you probably?” She shrugged and leaned back on the ground.
“You’ve got it easy…you know that right? Puffanova…you know I’m going to call you that for life now,” she grinned over to him half heartedly as she sat up again and gave him a destroyed looking face. “I’m trying to change things in my life…I know I act and walk like there’s nothing wrong all the time, but there is.” She grinned and sighed. “I just, you know me? I’ve been all afraid of emotions and recently I’ve been thinking that I need to stop all the stupid things that I’ve been doing? And just you know…actually walk like there’s nothing wrong and stop pretending? I need to, I want to be stable.” She groaned and chewed on her lip.
“Even….even if that means having f-” she couldn’t even say it really. “feelings for people or accepting it when I do and not trying to ruin things when feelings happen because you know me” she sighed. “I’m a ruiner.”
Kace shrugged and said, "Well you know I probably would have done it if I was that lazy.." He admitted it no shame there. He heard her whine and he knew this was gonna be good. "Well what do you need help with?" he whined back and mimicked her. Aahh jeez this might be interesting if she referred to him being a Puffanova. "I guess I am a good person to ask then huh?" He heard Puck begin to vent about what was going on inside her head. He rolled his eyes and he knew Puck would never let the Puffanova name be let down. "I figured you would.." he grinned and playfully bumped into her.
After he heard Puck vent he got the gist. "You are not a ruiner trust me on that one.." he said and gave her an one armed hug. "You just gotta own up to your emotions is all. You just gotta tell the person you like how you feel. I mean I did it for Emmy.." he said like it was nothing. "You can do it Puck. Use your bravery, use your inner lion." he grinned and playfully bumped her yet again.
Simon started playing around with the grass, pulling it out one strand at a time as he listened to her. He chuckled. "I'm wrapping my mind around many things but the most important one is figuring how to help my best mate out with a girl. See, he has a huge crush on this one girl.. And she likes him but when they're together, they never talk," he said. Pausing, he glanced up at her and smiled. "Any ideas about how to deal with that case? I'm not the most experienced in that department." Girls were just confusing to him.
He too blushed ever so slightly and turned away to gaze at the Whomping Willow. It was so magnificent and tall. He watched the branches dance slowly in the wind. He looked at her again when she asked him that question. In love with her? He gulped. His palms became sort of sweaty. Ahh... Well.... Ahem. "Perhaps I am.. What would you do about it?" he asked, taking a chance. And then she winked. Erm... Well.. He supposed that she was just teasing. He smiled awkwardly. Heh.
"[b]I'm really glad to hear it." Simon laughed at her comment. He shook his head. "Nah, not winning over any girls with the guitar. I'll have to start using the ukulele," he said, giving her a wink.
She picked up her camera from the ground beside her and took a bite out of the bread person in her other hand. As she listened to him talk about his issue, Bianca raised the camera up towards the tree to take a picture of it. "Honestly, Watson, I thought you'd figure out a solution to this problem seeing as it's so simple," she replied, amused. Bianca had a mischievous smile on her face when she looked over at him. "Like I said, I do have a consulting fee. If you want some help, you'll have to pay."
If Bianca had been looking over at him instead of through her camera lens, she might've seen him blush but she didn't so she just snapped another picture of the Whomping Willow. She wasn't exactly expecting him to say what he did in response to her query about him being in love with her. Honestly, that was something she never thought about. "Well..." Bianca started before pausing to think about it. "I'd let you know that I'm honored to be your love interest, but I don't know how we'd work out, with you being Watson and me being Adler. I simply don't think it was meant to be." Even if he really cute and smart. Except maybe... no. Bianca could simply not view him in that way. That was absurd.
"I think you should stick with the guitar. Haven't you heard? Girls love a boy who knows how to play a guitar," she replied, winking right back at him.

Oh yeah! Ilia was TOTALLY into creatures as much as he was. Adi LOVED meeting persons who shared his interests and this term, he was rather lucky to be meeting so many of them. This would come in VERY handy for when he had established his Griff dreams. Already he had was working to accomplish his goals... he had so far managed to save a generous amount of money for his future. "They are. Their differences are what make them so interesting,'' he replied, thinking fondly of fire crabs and Nifflers. Hehe.
"You should though I suppose you can see Hades anytime in the Snake common room.'' Adi had thought that Ilia would have known the third year but it didn't seem that way. As for AJ... ''Just look for the prettiest girl in the Castle and that's my girlfriend,'' he told Ilia with a grin. "In face and ways.'' Even though AJ shared a face with Angel, she was more than just a pretty face to him. "It sure does! Who better to have help from than your friends?'' Adi seriously doubted anyone of them would be rude to the Griffs. "Sounds like Henny will be travelling a lot.'' Did Ilia hear the hint of disappointment in his voice? That was because he wouldn't get to see the other guy as much after Hogwarts.
Adi's face registered surprise. and Ilia were alike in the area of favourite subjects. "It is?'' He was SUPER pleased to hear this. "We could both put some research into it then!'' Yeah! He liked this idea!
Catching onto her quick? Yup, you could say that! Oh hey! Ilia had already taken off. "Wait for me!'' Adi hurried to catch up with her. "I want to find that knot I've heard so much about. But be careful, Ilia. Remember about the branches.'' Maybe it would be a good idea to have their wands out? Not to hurt the Tree but to rather protect themselves from potential attacks.
"It is one of the beautiful things about them." She smiled earnestly, very happy that her friend shared the sort of feelings for other beings that she did. So Hady was a Slytherin.....the girl supposed she really didn't spend much time in her own common room so that might have attributed to her lack of knowing who he was speaking of. "I suppose I don't spend enough time in our common room." She smiled a bit sheepishly at the thought. As for his girlfriends description........"Isn't that something a boy friend is supposed to say? Are you sure that is how I will find her?" She liked teasing her friends. It was fun and if she was comfortable enough to joke it was a sign she liked someone.
It sounded like Henric would travel a lot? She frowned a little as she heard the disappointment softly in Adi's tone. "I suppose that depends on what he truly wants to do. My one uncle doesn't travel much...." She wasn't the only one in her family that loved the creatures.......
Wait......those were Adi's favorite subjects and in that order too!? When he said that he would research it as well, she grinned happily. "That would be awesome! We can be study buddies." She laughed a little thinking about the fun they might have together. It wasn't every day you met a friend with the same sort of passion as you.
--------------------
She couldn't help herself, having started to explore around the tree. If she walked up real nice like maybe the tree wouldn't be so angry? Adi called after her and warned her again about the branches. She had her wand ready to defend herself, but she would never know unless she gave it a chance right? "Maybe we can find the knot easier if she stays calm? We can always try right?" She approached just barely out of whomping radius. Now to test her theory.......Taking a deep breath, she walked up slowly to the tree to give it a big hug.
Kace shrugged and said, "Well you know I probably would have done it if I was that lazy.." He admitted it no shame there. He heard her whine and he knew this was gonna be good. "Well what do you need help with?" he whined back and mimicked her. Aahh jeez this might be interesting if she referred to him being a Puffanova. "I guess I am a good person to ask then huh?"

Use your bravery, use your inner lion." he grinned and playfully bumped her yet again.
Puck picked up her can and shrugged, “shouldn’t we well…connect them?” She asked and glanced over to him. “I mean, geez…if we don’t attach them it’ll be a little hard to hear things.” She laughed and grinned over to him.
Picking up her can phone she lifted it toward her mouth….”hello…is anybody in there?” she asked a slight grin tugging at her lips. “just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?”
Oh yes. This was going to be fun and who knew if Kace would catch it.

"I think you should stick with the guitar. Haven't you heard? Girls love a boy who knows how to play a guitar," she replied, winking right back at him.
"Well there are some things that I don't catch on to quite quickly," he explained with a wide grin. He was utterly clueless when it came to girls. They would like him and he wouldn't realise that until after they started dating someone else. Simon raised an eyebrow at her. Wow, wasn't she the business "What's the consulting fee? Help on homework? Beating up a guy for you? Grabbing you coffee?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. He could probably match that price.
Simon waited for her response with anticipation which was very odd because a few months ago, he wouldn't have. He had been head over heels for Agatha but since they hadn't spoken, he really wasn't anymore. When he had met her back in fourth year and if someone asked him about her, he would have rolled his eyes and called or a handful. However, now he would say that she was a very nice handful and that she was his handful of a friend. "Yeah, that's what I expected..." he said, taking a deep breath. He didn't know how to react to it or what to say. "Adler and Holmes are supposed to end up together. Watson ends up with Mary.. And who knows? I get to write my own story."
"Yeah, that's true. I thought my endearing adorable looks, smarts, and charms would get a girl," he teased, laughing at himself. He shook his head. "You're silly, B."

"Yeah, that's true. I thought my endearing adorable looks, smarts, and charms would get a girl," he teased, laughing at himself. He shook his head. "You're silly, B."
Bianca let out a little laugh. She had always thought that Simon was particularly intelligent but it was a little more than obvious he didn't have much experience with girls. He was what she'd consider more book smart. "You just need some experience, then you'll be set," Bianca said with a slight nod of her head. Wasn't that really all anyone ever needed? Some practice? As for the consulting fee... "A favor. I might need something later on." Like if she accidentally killed someone and needed someone to help hide the body, she'd simply ask him. At this point, he probably owed her a few favors for solving all of his cases and all.
Adler and Holmes. Yeah... she was so not into the Sherlock Holmes to his John Watson. If anything, she liked Watson more. "Well, I'd prefer Watson over Holmes anyday," she said with a smile. "After all, Watson doesn't get nearly as much credit as Holmes does. Who wants to be the center of attention all the time?" Oh wait - she did. But to be fair, everyone loved being the center of attention.
"Yes, but every girl loves getting serenaded by their musically talented boyfriend," she joked. "Mister Watson, have you been pining for a girl?"
That was the only reason she could come up with bringing up girls like that.

That was the only reason she could come up with bringing up girls like that.
"Experience?" he repeated raising BOTH eyebrows now. Simon didn't even know where to begin with that. Yes, he had hung out with girls before. Did she mean ask them out? Well then... He just had to find the right girl. "What should I say though? Hey! Want to go to Hogsmeade together?" he asked as he flung his hands up into the air. Girls were very confusing. Too confusing at times. He nodded. "Sure, anything." Perhaps, he'd forget that later. However, he didn't think that Bianca would end up needing that favour. She was, after all, pretty self reliant.
Blue eyes as wide as saucers, he turned his head to the side briefly. Wait. What? Had she said? He blinked. "Thanks, that's rather kind of you, Adler," he said with a grin. He smiled even more at her sentence. Whoever wanted to be the centre of the attention all the time? Simon looked down and then glanced up at her. "Really? Adler? You? Saying that who always wants to be the centre of attention?" he teased.
Simon pulled out his notebook and began taking notes. "See? I'm taking notes now," he said. He began jotting down ideas about serenading girls. Simon would have to ask Grayson for some more ideas too. His mouth dropped when he heard her next question and he turned a bright red. "I... I... I don't know.. I had liked someone but I haven't heard from her recently. I always catch on to the girls that like me when its too late."

I had liked someone but I haven't heard from her recently. I always catch on to the girls that like me when its too late."
He looked adorably confused, didn't he? Amused, Bianca watched him, look adorably confused and was that a hint of frustration? Probably. "That sounds like the perfect way to ask a girl out on a date." It sounded simple and easy and no one ever thought to just go that way apparently. A girl didn't need roses and chocolates to go on a date. "Just find out what the girl likes to do and ask if she wants to go do that with you. If she says no, chances are she's probably not interested in you at all," she said, nodding her head and eating her bread person.
Bianca smiled back at him. She considered him a good friend at this point and he had a nice smile. But was he making fun of her? Laughing she playfully hit him on the arm. "Hey, don't you know that's why I became a model?" she asked. That and because she loved clothes. But hey, in the future she'd be more than just a model. She'd be a healer and a top model or just model, she'd settle if she became a healer.
"Also take note of how beautiful I look while educating you on this subject," she said, peering over at his notebook, "and mention how I'm going to solve all open cases in that notebook of yours." This time Bianca did see him blush and it was amusing to see his face as red a fresh strawberry. "You just need to keep your eyes open a little bit more; use your deduction skills, Mister Watson. Sometimes it's incredibly obvious and right in front of your face."
But not in front of his face like right now because she was in front of his face. But like... in front of his face some other time because he was cute and there were girls who were into that whole intelligent thing mixed with his boyish charm. Because Bianca would fall for it too since he was so adorable and all.

Puck picked up her can and shrugged, “shouldn’t we well…connect them?” She asked and glanced over to him. “I mean, geez…if we don’t attach them it’ll be a little hard to hear things.” She laughed and grinned over to him.
Picking up her can phone she lifted it toward her mouth….”hello…is anybody in there?” she asked a slight grin tugging at her lips. “just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?”
Oh yes. This was going to be fun and who knew if Kace would catch it.
He noticed Puck didn't want to talk anymore and Kace was cool with it. I mean sometimes some topics are too sensitive. She would talk some more when she was ready. Kace saw Puck pick up the can telephone they used in Muggle Studies. He laughed and asked, "You still kept that?" But hey he would play along. "Don't worry though, they are already connected." he said referring to the string. He got up from his seat and walked a little ways so he couldn't know what Puck was saying sitting right next to her. Kace saw Puck pick up the can and trying to talk to him. "SPEAK LONG SENTENCES!" he said to her. Then he put the can up to his ear and heard her speak. He only hear the vibrations though.
He looked up and nodded that he could hear something. He tried to answer back. "Hello Puckester...can you hear meee?? Over and out. Say Roger if you read me.." he said trying to sound like a solider. Man this was fun. He wondered why he stopped doing it.

"Maybe you spend too much time with Princess and Henric.'' Which wasn't a bad thing. A toad and a good friend made one of the best company. Adi laughed now. He knew Ilia was teasing and he must say, he liked her sense of humour. Mhmmm. "Maybeee but it's the truth.'' There wasn't any girl can could compare to his AJ. "Yes, that's just how you will find her.'' He winked. Surely Ilia must know AJ just by at least seeing her because the couple hung out a lot together.
"I guess so. He'll made a great dragon researcher.'' So, it seemed Ilia came from a family that loved creatures. "You get it from your family,'' he observed. "Any of them into Hippogriffs?'' Because he'd love to meet them sometime and get some tips for handling the creatures! "Study buddies it is! While we're at it, we can think up of more potions for creatures. Did I tell you I already created one that would help creatures stay calm?'' Adi doubted he had told Ilia that. It wasn't like he went around boasting of his accomplishments.
The Hufflepuff kept following Ilia, keeping his eyes fixed on those branches. "Yep! That's true.'' She was so positive, wasn't she? Ilia was Adi's kind of person. Yay for positive vibes! What... O_O She was hugging the Tree! "You're mighty brave,'' he told her and flung his own arms around the other side of the Willow. Hugs... who didn't love a nice squishy hug? "We're tree hugging buddies.'' Hehe.
He noticed Puck didn't want to talk anymore and Kace was cool with it. I mean sometimes some topics are too sensitive. She would talk some more when she was ready. Kace saw Puck pick up the can telephone they used in Muggle Studies. He laughed and asked, "You still kept that?" But hey he would play along. "Don't worry though, they are already connected." he said referring to the string. He got up from his seat and walked a little ways so he couldn't know what Puck was saying sitting right next to her. Kace saw Puck pick up the can and trying to talk to him. "SPEAK LONG SENTENCES!" he said to her. Then he put the can up to his ear and heard her speak. He only hear the vibrations though.
He looked up and nodded that he could hear something. He tried to answer back. "Hello Puckester...can you hear meee?? Over and out. Say Roger if you read me.." he said trying to sound like a solider. Man this was fun. He wondered why he stopped doing it.
Puck just grinned over to him. “Of course I kept it…but we don’t have to use it really” she grinned, “I think it was my fear going ‘no don’t talk about emotions’ cause you know me” she laughed, “I get all nervous and babble when I don’t force myself to stop?” She shrugged and pulled her knees closer to her so that she was hugging them.
“But about what you said earlier…” and sighed. “I need help well…ending things?” she shrugged and chuckled, “well even if you aren’t a good person to ask I’d still ask you because you are my friend.” She grinned.
“well…it’s only fair since you and LonelyPuff have been calling me Duck,” she grinned over to him and shrugged. “Why should I trust you about not being a ruiner? I’ve ruined things. Plenty of things…” she nodded and returned his one armed hug because it was nice, and needed.
“The thing is…I don’t know if I like anyone,” she admitted and grinned. “I just need to end things so I can find I do,…because I’m weird like that I guess?”

“The thing is…I don’t know if I like anyone,” she admitted and grinned. “I just need to end things so I can find I do,…because I’m weird like that I guess?”
"Yeah to be honest I don't even know if it will work.." he shrugged and put a damper on their parade. I mean their childhood using these things was pointless. They didn't really work. "Oh yeah I do know that trust me.." he nudged her. "It is fine it is what makes you...you? I guess but it is good talk about emotions you know Puckster especially with me." he told her honestly. He raised an eyebrow when she said she wanted to end things? What kind of things? "What things do you need to end?" he asked. He needed a general idea.
Why was Puck so down on herself. "You are not a ruiner. Hell you have made my life so much more interesting. I mean that in a nice way obviously just don't be soo down on yourself. You got this.." he smiled and tried to cheer her up but giving her a one armed hug and then a squeeze. Well now he knew what the one thing was. "Puck it is fine if you don't like anyone. I mean it doesn't happen to everyone. You just need more time. Sure we don't have luck with other people but does that mean we should give up?" He asked. This is the part where you said nooo Puck but Kace was waiting for her answer.
Puck just looked at Kace when he spoke, even finding herself shaking her head and snorting at some of the comments. “Kace, you my friend are a greetingcard.” She sighed and rolled her eyes at him…”oh come on Kace stop being such a hufflepuff,” she joked with him and nudged him. “actually don’t,….its your redeeming quality.” She sassed and sent him a friendly smirk.
Yes she was sassing him…but it made it easier to open up when she could sass him. “Oh really? Is that with my unmatched charm and wit?” She was kidding of course, but really, her bravado was what people usually liked about her….or didn’t like it depended on the person.
“Oh you know…there are” she shifted and brushed a bit of hair out of her face before continuing. “I need to stop looking well not looking cause I don’t usually look for them…but I need to find a ‘healthy’ relationship…” she chewed her lip slightly and grinned whens he heard Kace saying it was okay if she didn’t like someone. When he hugged her she just gave him a quick squeeze back.
“I’m even thinking of asking friends…maybe even people that don’t know me too well like Noel cause…he’s cool or you but you do know me so yeah…” she shrugged and grinned, “to set me up on a blind date thing…but I mean I wouldn’t have to resort to that if you know I actually liked someone? Or well…had the guts to flirt with people and make it sound like it wasn’t me joking around?” She pulled a face and groaned.
“So…puffanovoa? Wanna set a friend up with someone?” She nudged, “or well…give her pointers on how and why things are failing?” She asked nervously.

It was December already and Noel was now starting to struggle with warm socks. He did not get cold, he really did not. It was just weird and just unpleasant.
OWLS were still a thing apparently. Noel had been doing his best though. So after spending most of the morning studying, the sixteen year old had a fried brain and was in need of a walk. Making his way to the grounds, he looked around wondered where Hayley and Benzi were. He hadn't seen them in a while, one in particular.
It sucked, basically.
They had had a GREAT night at the rave and then everything had been back to whatever.
When he noticed a certain gryffindor prefect near by, Noel smiled. He needed company. And oh look, there was Kace too. Walking toward them, the boy greeted: "Sup guys?"

Puck was about to pester Kace some more when she heard the voice – oh heeeeeey she had just talked about him. A minute ago….did he have some kind of homing beacon that made him appear when he was called? Like a bat single? Obviously Noel was well…not Batman but maybe BaderBoy?
“Sup BadgerBoy” she grinned giving him a new nickname because of his unheard of appearing skills. “Actually…I was just talking about you” she grinned, at him and patted the cold ground near them. “Come sit with us…we were talking about the dating prospects at this school…so far most interest I’ve had were from House Elves, and I’m not even kidding” she admitted with a laugh. “I was actually asking Kace here for dating advice” she admitted and sighed.
“Because I’m trying to be ‘stable’ and be a good role model for the kids in my house? You know…the whole ‘have flings’ and not have stable relationship thing isn’t good for little kids I don’t think…not really at least,”

"We're tree hugging buddies.'' Hehe.
"I'm not sure that there is such a thing." She smiled a bit sheepishly at the accusation. He seemed certain of his answer, more than just being dutiful. She laughed a little and smiled at her friend. "I am sure I will know her when I see her then." She doubted she would agree with his assessment but she was pretty sure that she had seen the girl around the school with him before. She was pretty , she would give him that.
"I really think that he will." In truth , she thought he would be amazing at it. "Well some of my family.....my mother not so much. A few of my uncles are in the creatures field and my dad loves them." She would leave her dad's profession out because it didn't deal with animals and he worked for a different ministry than the one that governed here. "I do think that my Uncle Tyr raises them as well, maybe sometime during summer you could visit." She wanted Henric to anyways, she was sure that they would be alright with Adi too. "No, you haven't told me that yet Study Buddy. That sounds wonderful!" It really did, it was probably a good thing to have when wanting to deal with hippogryffs and having friends that wanted to work with dragons.
She was surprised when the tree didn't just right out try to whomp her. Pleasantly surprised! " I don't know if I'd call myself brave." When Adi came and hugged it too, she felt the tree tremble. Maybe she was unsure? She giggled at his comment but tried to reassure the tree."Its okay big girl." She remained hugging the tree and laughed incredulously, was this really happening? She wondered if it would decide it was upset and try to whomp them......that trembling might not have been a good sign.

Javier had woken up a little earlier today, not that it was necessary. But still, given the average length of time mapping usually took it was better to be prepared like him. He had all the materials in the bag, now was just waiting on the others to arrive. A safe distance from that Willow of course before it could treat him as a tether ball.

The cold winter weather didn't prevent Jackson to go out from castle and taking break from studying OWLs. He decided to stay at Hogwarts on winter break because he wanted to focus on study. But too much study make his brain tired and cramping, he needed a break from all of the OWL madness. Seeing the notice board at common room, he saw a notice about cartographer club and it sound interesting. He'd never heard about this club before, maybe he should come down there.
Grabbing his coat, the Korean boy left the common room to the ground. The whomping willow, that's where the meeting was held. His chocolate brown eyes spotted the Care of Magical Creatures professor was already there and it seemed like he was the first student that attended the meeting. Oops, maybe he was too excited. Nah, actually he just needed to get away from study. "Hello, sir." He greeted Professor Thompson and smiled.

AT THE HOGWARTS YULE BALL, YOU'LL BE HANGING OUT WITH....__________________
It's a fairytale evening, and you want the entire event to be totally dazzling and
a real experience with the friendliest people around you.
Cartographer's Club had been exciting enough last term that of course she would be joining them on their adventures again this term. It was an extra bonus that Javy was there, and Sophie griiiinned at the big man as she approached the area by the Whomping Willow where he and a Gryffindor were already waiting.
"Hi, sir," Sophie greeted the Creatures professor, offering a friendly smile to the boy who was already there with him. There were a few things she considered saying to Javy - like you're looking ravishing today and sorry you got stuck leading us around today, but she didn't think it was right to do that in front of another person.
But she was thinking all those things.
Instead, she just stood beside Javy, facing the same direction as him, and crossed her arms, trying to look tough and intimidating standing next to the professor. Just chillin'.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
The Cartographer's Club Meeting!
Adi could NOT forget about it because he had been looking forward to it ever since he saw the notice. Last term's meetings had been epic and no doubt the ones this term would be the same. He arrived at the Whomping Willow and was pleased to see he was not the only one there.
Of course there was a Professor- Thompson... and there were Sophie Jackson! Adi hopped and skipped over to the trio, coming to a stop next to the Gryffindor. "Hi, Professor! Hi, dongsaeng! Hi, Sophie!'' Mighty proud Hufflepuff here for using Korean.
Now. WHEREEE were the others so they could get this show on the road?
All the way out onto the grounds, Toby had been relentlessly tugging the zip on his jacket up and down. It was a good way to fidget, something to focus on, and he enjoyed the noise immensely. Even by the time he reached the Whomping Willow it still hadn't lost its appeal.
It was surprising, really, that he'd even managed to get here, seeing as he'd not been watching where he was going. But despite eyes and attention being totally focused on his zip antics, it seemed his feet had automatically taken him where he needed to go. Once he'd arrived and stopped beside Javy, Toby glanced up, looked around at those gathered, and gave them all a single nod in greeting before his head went back down and he went right back to his fidgeting.
Cosgrach was ready for today! The weather wasn't awful and he did enjoy the cartographer's things last term, so he was glad he was leading this with Javy today. Just as he was leaving the dungeons, Toby was going out of the Entrance Hall too and the sound of his zip intrigued Cosgrach, so he decided to follow the boy without calling him. Zip-ziiip-zip was a hypnotising sound and the man was happy to see that Toby was, indeed, going to join them in their discovery of the grounds.
"Hello everyone!" he greeted the small group - Sophie, Toby, Adi and... Jackson, huh? Good.

Yaaaay!! Cartography Club meeting!!
Lux was so looking forward to whatever adventure they would be having today, since something ALWAYS happened while mapping Hogwarts. Plus they were outside with nature even if it was cold. Times like this called for extra layers.
Arriving right behind Professor Culloden, Lux waved at everyone who was assembled. "Hello!" It was nice to see her friends. Everyone must be as curious as she was. "Hello, Professors." They were going to start soon, yes?

Cartographers Club meetings had been fun last term...when they weren't flooded out.
So Ben had made the decision to come see what the first of this term would be all about. However as he approached the Whomping Willow, which was their meeting point, he couldn't help but be filled with mixed feelings. Surely Adi would be there too, the Hufflepuff just as much a fan of the activity they had done together. Plus the violent tree reminded him of too many gatherings of him and his bestie, including the fight involving Angel.
"Hello professors," he greeted to Professors Thompson and Culloden as he joined the group. The boy picking a spot away from Adi...outside most everyone for that matter but just close enough to pay attention when they started.
