| | |  Dungeon Five Entrance
 You arrive in the dungeons, ready to serve your detention. You approach a desk situated in front of several doors and can hear strange noises coming from behind each of them. Suddenly, there is an ear-piercing scream and the staff member behind the desk smiles with pleasure. Time for you to sign your soul over in!
OOC:
Welcome to Detention!
Here is where students come to be punished. Please RP your arrival and signing in in this thread. From here, the staff member administering your detention will assign you a detention room. Once you have been assigned a detention room, post your arrival in that detention room thread and a staff member will be there to instruct you momentarily.
Please keep in mind the following special rules for detention:
Quote: Rule number one: Do NOT complain about being in detention. You are here for good reason and if you don't know why you are here, you obviously need to learn the rules and the proper way to behave at school (RP school or REAL school). This is the perfect place to do that.
Rule number two: Please refrain from making OOC comments if at all possible.
Rule number three: Do not pester us to take you out of detention or complain when your detention is up and we haven't had a chance to take you out. Maybe you'll think twice next time. It is not our fault if you miss classes or Quidditch or can't post in the rest of the school!!
Rule number four: You must post in your assigned detention room a couple times a day throughout the course of your detention to prove to us that you have actually shown up. (We understand there are circumstance where you may not be able to get online, but sometimes, the length of your detention is dependant on how many days you have actually posted. For example, if you are given two days of detention and you only post once a week, your detention will actually be for the two weeks it took you to post.) A professor will give you instructions as to what you will be doing while here.
Rule number five: You must ONLY post in the detention rooms assigned to you in this thread. If you are caught posting in detention rooms you were not assigned to, your detention length will be increased.
Failure to abide by any of these rules may result in the professor extending your detention period. | |

Daxton was curious to see just what a detention in the dungeons would entail. He had earned a couple of detentions before, of course, but they had taken place in other settings; the Charms practice room, the old Defence Against the Dark Arts obstacle course, and he supposed he could count Airey Flamsteed's office too. But never the dungeons, so it was with an air of curiosity - but still as blank an expression as ever - that the second year all but strolled into the entrance to Dungeon Five, hands in his pockets as he went.
Pausing in the doorway, Daxton cast a cursory glance around the room, at all the doors and into every dingy corner, the hairs on the back of his neck giving an unpleasant prickling sensation as they stood up on end. He wanted nothing more than to pull his earmuffs up from where they dangled around his neck, clamp them down over his ears, but the desire to keep all his senses unimpeded easily won out.
After he had committed the layout of the room to memory, Daxton headed for the sign-in book and printed his name down, glancing back at the other recorded names when he was done, and recognising all of them. Then he paused again, thinking. How far back did this book go? It seemed a bit much to expect that twenty years worth of detention records might be in this very sign-in book, but it was difficult to judge just how many students were sent to the dungeons on a yearly basis. Not knowing when he might get another chance to check, Daxton just went ahead and flipped back the pages of the book, scanning through them as he listened out for the footsteps that would signal the arrival of the Transfiguration professor.

Nana hated the dungeons. Cold, damp, lacking of any color and all charm. She was very glad her office and set of rooms was no where near this level of the castle. Still, it was a fitting place for a detention... Albeit, slightly heavy handed. Her heels clicked with each step, but the rhythm only brought her confidence, and assurance that she was a capable, strong witch who knew what she was doing. She had given detention before, quite a few of them in the past, but this would be her first Hogwarts detention and the subject himself was... an intimidating one.
Yes, she was not so proud that she could not admit that Daxton Price with his inscrutable stare was an intimidating charge. There was something to him, something that Nana could not pinpoint or understand yet, but that she was determined to. She could not teach a student who's mind was so closed off and it was not in her to simply let someone squander their time or natural born abilities.
This detention would be interesting. "Mister Prince." Nana greeted, hands loosely folded together before her as she reached the young man. She had almost wondered if he would come at all. "We will begin shortly with your detention. We are, at present, waiting on a colleague." She was expecting the Astronomer anytime now. He had shown an interest in the boy and after consideration and a consultation Nana had decided that Airey should be present during all this.

There were the footsteps Daxton had been anticipating, but he continued flipping back through the pages of the detention sign-up book, scanning through years of near illegible handwriting from the scores of students that had found themselves here. It was only when Ichihara spoke to announce her presence that he looked up, unwilling to have his attention focused on something other than the other occupant of the room.
Daxton had expected to be directed immediately to wherever the detention was to take place, or perhaps to receive some form of lecture even though this professor had made it quite clear that she was not one to waste time dithering about. But no... waiting on a colleague. Who?
The Headmistress? Possibly, but then 'colleague' implied someone who was moderately equal to Ichihara, and it seemed unlikely that the Headmistress would be referred to as such. If Moxley was to show up here, Daxton thought it more likely that Ichihara would have mentioned that; it seemed like the kind of thing a professor might do to try and scare or intimidate him. Perhaps Kitridge then? She had mentioned speaking to his Head of House, and it was fitting that the man in said role might want to speak to him. Or it could be Airey Flamsteed. Daxton did not know why he would be involved - logically, without knowing all the details, coming to that conclusion made no sense - but he thought that just maybe he would hear the Astronomer's footsteps next. He turned his unforgiving stare towards the door, daring to hope that Airey Flamsteed might appear, that he might get a chance to provoke a reaction out of him today.

Dare to dream, Mr. Prince.
Arriving neither early nor late, but precisely when he meant to, the Astronomy professor made his way through the dank dungeon corridors until he spotted the unfortunate pairing. Having gotten all of neck rubbing, bridge of the nose pinching, and vein bulging mostly out of the way, the professor approached the two with a somewhat stoic appearance. There was, as was to be expected, an air of disappointment about his person. Disappointment again but not entirely without the expectation that things would end up here.
It was more likely that the grinding of stone upon stone announced his arrival rather than his footsteps, however. Pebbles always had a natural knack for making stealthy appearances difficult.
"Professor," he greeted, offering his colleague a polite nod of the head. "Shall we then?" He gestured towards the door to the dungeon Nana had prepared for this.

It wasn't long before the Astronomy Professor and his *pet (must he bring Peebles with him everywhere? Nana had so many questions) had entered their ranks. She offered him a familiar nod. "Professor." She echoed. It would do good to have him by. He would keep things even, and logical. For despite his sillier tendencies (revisit paragraph a, sentence one for an example) Nana had seen in his teaching techniques and principles a certain cool reasoning that was needed with a case like Daxton Prince.
Speaking of.
"After you, Mister Prince." Nana coolly said, gesturing for the young man to make his way in. She would follow in after him and Flamsteed.

Smugness and satisfaction were concepts that were perhaps far too positive for Daxton to be able to feel in his current stage of life, but he very much recognised the feeling of right, and he focused on that as Airey Flamsteed was preceded into the room by the sound of infernal clunking and crunching of that stupid rock. It was a horrible, grating sound, one that seemed to scream directly at Daxton's ear drums, making him shudder ever so slightly. When the man himself came into view, Daxton merely afforded him a passing, impassive glance, before casting the 'pet' rock a lingering stare. Oh, how he wanted to throw the stupid thing into the lake, send it into the Forbidden Forest with a Hippogriff, or simply just smash it with a hammer. He was so absorbed in his plans for rock-murder that he completely and utterly missed any disappointment or coolness radiating from either of his captors, though it would be fair to say that such vibes would invariably be wasted on him, no matter the circumstance.
Looking back up from the rock, Daxton turned to look at where both professors had gestured for him to go; one of those doors. He hesitated. Closed doors provided something of an unpleasant challenge for him, though he could not explain why. Knocking on doors was worse, which was why he never did it, but simply opening a closed door could be managed from time to time.
Except that he had an audience now, and one which expected him to turn his back on them, too. It was that - not the detention, not the two-to-one ratio in favour of the authority figures, not the dungeons - that made Daxton nervous. In the end he walked to the door in a very specific way, each footstep calculated, in a manner than he never once turned his back or lost sight of the two professors, before heaving the door open and darting inside. Maybe it made him look stupid, but better to look stupid than to act stupid, and turn his back on anyone who could easily get the better of him.
