Hogwarts Walk of Fame Are you ready to take a trip down Hogwarts history? |
For whoever wants to play! ^^ How he got stuck manning this position, he had no idea. Merlin. It had to be the most BORING one there was. If he had gotten his first choice, he would've jumped straight on to the dunk tank with Sophie Brown. But of course Newell had to claim that position first. Then of course the second choice would've been food. It always was food. Honestly, food would've been the first had Sophie Brown not been a part of the Dunk Tank package. Third choice was the bounce house. At least bounce houses were fun. But somehow he got stuck in the LAST position he wanted. And he also felt utterly ridiculous with the lion ears on his head. And the tail. Yes, as the Head Boy it was his job to encourage everyone else to dress up... But was this super necessary? He looked like a fool. This was stupid. It was borderline educational and wasn't the whole point of this event to take a break from-- Ooooh was that Professor Flamsteed back in the day?? LOOOOOOOL Ahem. He wandered off from the Walk of Fame entrance, leading himself further inside the maze like walls. Eh, Puck was stuck working here too. Hopefully she wouldn't mind greeting people by the entrance. Because Zander was going to enjoy this thing. Okay, he took it all back. He had TOTALLY gotten the best station. Look at that tiny Airey Flamsteed!!! He looked THE EXACT SAME!! And yes, Zander was staring. And laughing. And ahem. Totally working hard over here, people. |
Snags you SPOILER!!: Zander So this was the festival that Adi had been hinting about. The prefects' plans that the boyfriend had been behaving and not spilling the entire beans about. Not that Benny had pressed his prefect other half for details and made it harder. No, he had been good and kept his curiousity at bay and finally the announcement had gone out that it was time. He had also noticed the encouragement to show school spirit so he braved actually wearing at least part of a costume. It wasn't like he minded wearing his house colors. Making sure his mane and ears were on straight and with his tail swinging behind him, the seventh year made his way in one direction. He came across the hall of fame, reconizing the transported trophies and awards from its usual home. Benny also noticed a certain roommate/headboy who seemed to have been on the same page as he had been about their school spirits. "Seems like great lions think alike..." he mused with a chuckle. |
SPOILER!!: Benny! The Head Boy was still smiling like an idiot looking back at photos of old Professors. Huh. He didn't know that many of them went to Hogwarts. It was kind of weird imagining them as students... Y'know, since they were Professors now. It was kind of unthinkable? But reckon they used to have lives too at some point. "Huh?" He turned his head at the sound of a familiar-- What the heck was Benny wearing on his head? He looked ridiculous and-- Oh wait. Zander looked ridiculous too. Touché. "Oh yeah," he joined in with a chuckle too, but ahem. "I feel like such a fool," except he had to do it to encourage everyone else to show spirit. What was Benny's excuse? "Adi didn't make you wear them, did he?" He wouldn't put it past the Hufflepuff. Plus there was no way Benny actually decided to wear the ears on his own accord, right? RIGHT? Someone here had to be sane. |
It seemed Zander wasn't quite as relaxed as he was about wearing the lion ears that marked their house pride. "So do I...somewhat," he agreed with a shrug. "But might be our last time to do so, so I'll brave it." So many feels over the last term being more than half over already. Time had sure flown by fast. But then today was supposed to be a fun happy day so Benny would be pushing aside those feelings for more relaxed ones. Hopefully they would stick. Hmm did the boyfriend put him up to it? It did sound like something he would do. But it wasn't totally true. "Maybe not physically...but I'd take fake ones over real ones." And with Adi's level of spellwork and his prankster soul, there was no telling if he would have wound up with the latter. Or you know, dosed with Culloden's potion and become a full on lion for a few hours. |

The next thing Benny said gave Zander an actual laugh though, ha. He was right. Zander would take the fake ones over real ones any day too. Speaking of laughing, "Do you recognize this guy, Benny?" Zander pointed over at the picture he had been looking at before the other Gryffindor arrived. LOL. The one with young Flamsteed. HEHEHE. Too good, too good. Speaking of which, Zander was gonna leave his shift in a little bit just to pay the man a visit at the dunk tank. HA. |
It seemed he had gotten through to his fellow lion about the idea to be going along with the house pride aspect of this event. Though Benny didn't think on how Adi might have Affected his willingness to do so. Well other than the fact that over the years they had known each other, the badger had helped him be more open and less shy. So maybe Adi did have some push to it. "I know..." he agreed, "it feels so weird to think on it. Though maybe I'm a bit more anxious about moving on." The future did have bright things in his path. And that remark about Adi had gotten Zander to actually laugh so it was all good. Better to dwell on the more positive aspects. At the latest question, he moved closer to the picture in question to get a better look. "Is that...our dear head of house?" he asked after a few moments. There certainly was the look of Flamsteed about him. |

Though, he decided not to focus on those pictures. Didn't want to think about that right now. The pictures he did want to focus on though... Were the pictures of their Professors. HEHE. And DING DING DING, we have a WINNER. The Gryffindor SMILED big when Benny decided on his guess. "YUP! Errr... At least I think so?" He scratched his head, moving closer to the photo in mention. "I mean... Look at him, still the same Flamsteed." He grinned. "I'm trying to find the other Professors though, I know Professor Dakest and Moxley went here as students... But... Do y'know if Culloden ever went to Hogwarts?" Because this was Zander's mission today. To laugh at all the Professors when they were kids. Did Benny want to join? It'd be loads of fun and very laugh inducing. Zander would promise that for sure. |
Anyone? Angel was all dressed up in her house colours, she totally wanted to show her Gryffindor pride, she saw Benny with the head boy and so she decided that she would look at the other side first, she wanted to see what there was and she hoped that she could learn more about the history of Hogwarts, like who had won the house cup the most or who was the best at gobstones because well you just had to know these things right. Angel was hoping that she might bump into someone whilst she was looking at all the trophies and stuff on display. She started to look at a couple, she just couldn't believe how much history there was at Hogwarts. |

So of course he was going to take a stroll down the Walk of Fame! He was certain he would see his mum and his dad down this hall, since they had both taught here and LOOK AT THAT! A young Airey Flamsteed! David let out a loud cackle at one of his favorite professors--- the boy was a shrimp!--- and took off his glasses to clean them briefly and get closer to the portrait. Unfortunately without his glasses on, Davie couldn't see properly and accidentally stepped on the heels of a Gryffindor girl right in front of him. "Oops, sorry, sorry, oops." He quickly shoved his smudgy glasses on his nose, then determined they were too dirty to wear, and took them off to clean them again. |

Angel looked at the guy in front of her, she was still trying to figure out where she knew that face from. "Hi, I'm Angel Valentine." Angel thought that she might as well introduce herself to the guy, it would be rude to stand there and not introduce yourself. "How are you today?" Angel hoped that the guy was having a great day. "You searching for someone in particular?" Angel asked. "Or are you like me, just seeing what you can find?" |

"I'm looking for my parents, I guess," Davie admitted. "They both used to teach here." |
Yes she was excited for this. Who wouldn’t be excited for this? They had supplied great food for the day and well, c’mon? There were awesome interactive portraits in the walk of fame. It wasn’t like she was that late after grabbing food, nope. Yeah so of course she hadn’t been that actively present during the year but it wasn’t like people hadn’t noticed the giant and her tower of books. Yes, studying had been the one thing she had kept doing all term. Walking over to the walk of fame she just grinned at all the students in the area talking. Whens he saw Angel she just gave the younger Lion a nod of the head. “Hey Angel,” oh…Angel was talking to a little kid…he didn’t look like a Lion…and well, the Ravenclaw stuff kind of helped right? She did hear the kid saying his name and grinned…looking for his parents. “Can I help you guys find some portraits?” She asked grinning at them. After all she had rearranged some of the portraits. |

"Oh your parents taught here?" Angel was still trying to place the face, she was sure that she had seen it before but when. "Where they here recently?" Angel was sure she recognised it and she was sure that it was a Professor, but which Professor was it? |
Jet wasn't particularly fond of crowds. However, she didn't want to be locked in the Common Room while the entire school was celebrating Hogwarts Spirit, so she made an effort and went to check the event out. On her way there, she considered the different things the prefects might have organised that were related to 'Hogwarts Spirit'. Ah. A Walk of Fame. Very nice. The Slytherin immediately walked that way, partially ignoring the students being rather loud in the bouncy castle. She did glance at the professors being dunked in a tank and almost let out a soft chuckle as she shook her head. One could easily mistake Hogwarts for anything but a school. The Walk of Fame should be the most interesting area there, she thought as she finally got close enough to be able to see the faces of the people in the photographs. Maybe she could find her father there? |

Ravenclaw say what now? Puck’s eyebrow flicked upward before she plastered her smile into place. “Oh so…you mean Headmistress Anastasia Truebridge?” She asked smiling. She wasn’t going to say to David that she thought his mom probably hated him…after all it was at one of her first Prefects events that wine ended up on the list. And rumors spread like colds at Hogwarts. Rumor had it she was responsible. Even if she had had nothing to do with the food at that particular event. “I think your mum hired me” she grinned, “that is if your mum is who I think you are talking about” she smiled. |
Eeek!! Sorry about the delay! It was so terribly overwhelming, to be honest. Years of Hogwartian history. That's what kept echoing in the older Ravenclaw's mind as she took in the carefully composed displays; memorabilia so artfully arranged for their consumption that Reagan couldn't help but feel unadulterated admiration at the Prefect team. The Gryffindor class photos held her attention for the longest time, of course. She wondered if her grandmother's class had been featured...2041? Hmmmm. OH! There! Eyes zeroed in on the moving photograph, she instantly found Gramma Scout. Even all those years ago, the tell-tale glasses glittered on the then!young girl's face. Reagan felt herself tear up a little. It had been almost eight months since she's seen her. She missed her grandmother very much. SPOILER!!: Jet! Having all sorts of feelings, Rea turned to a girl nearby, (a Slytherin)...face bright, shining, and opened. "It's so wonderful, isn't it?" Yes, her voice was thick with emotion. |
Angel smiled and gave Puck a wave, how awesome was this... she was wondering if she would get to see the Gryffindor Girl prefect before the end of the term and now she was. "Hi Puck!" Angel just listened as her fellow Gryffindor went about talking about the headmistress that had left last term, she was still in shock about that. She had thought that she would be here all the time she was but well that wasn't to be the case. Angel smiled at David. "I take it like Puck said Headmistress Truebridge was your mother, I know her... she was nice." Angel smiled as she thought about when she had seen the headmistress. "So when your older do you want to go into teaching?" Angel had no idea why she was asking but she thought it was a good question because well both his parents apparently taught here. |
