Gryffindor Reading Room [ map ]
|
Dalia was... a little put out. She knew she'd have to come back to Hogwarts after the holidays, but she hadn't really been ready. She'd only been here for the first couple of weeks before she'd been ill and had to go home, and it hadn't been enough time to make friends. Soooo... here she was. She'd... make friends later. She just wanted to settle in right now. So she grabbed a book from her trunk and explored the common room a little more, looking for the little room she'd remembered. With the books.... Ah. Perfect. It was nicer than she'd remembered actually, and deserted. Dalia walked into the room, patting the boulder gently before settling down in a beanbag chair. "Maybe this in't so bad, Calcifer." she said, picking the little grey and white rat out of her pocket and settling him on her lap. The lazy little creature curled up and fell asleep almost instantly... and Dalia opened her book. |
SPOILER!!: Dalia Alice walked into the reading room and plopped her books down and sat down. She might have been letting her homework build up since coming back from Christmas. Okay. She really had. But She was doing it now and that had to count for something! The redhead opened the book when she spotted the other girl's rat. "He's so cute! Wait is your rat a He? I'd hate to have said the wrong thing." She smiled and was glad for a distraction from her books. School wasn't fun in her opinion. The school was, yes.. but the rest of this yeah, gross. "I'm Alice.. Who are you?" Because that was the best way to greet another person. But Alice hadn't seen this person around just yet.. She needed to meet ALL THE HUMANS. |
Quote:
"'N I'm Dalia." she added. Maybe new friends didn't have to wait. Destiny finds you and all that. Her mum would have something to say about it that's for sure. |
Quote:
"Nice to meet you, Dalia! I don't think i've seen you around before. Did you transfer here?" Her blue eyes looking up from the rat to the girl he belonged to. |
Quote:
"Sort of. From Beauxbatons." Dal tapped her fingers on the cover of her book. "At the beginning of the year, but I got sick so I had to go home for a bit.." She wasn't going to go into it. The exact details were a little... unpleasant. She'd had a tutor to catch her up on everything though, so she hadn't quite escaped school work. "All fine now though." she added, her own eyes still glued to Calcifer's cheeky little tail as it disappeared up Alice's sleeve. |
Quote:
"I'm glad you're all better. Now we can be friends." She smiled and was about to say something when she interrupted herself to BURST into laughter. Feeling Calcifer crawl up her sleeve tickled something fierce. She wiggled and squirmed and tried to find the little guy and pull him out of her robes. "He really does like to explore!" |
Quote:
Friends? It was that easy in England? Sweet. "Me too." And then she saw the little lump that was Calcifer make his way up Alice's sleeve. "Calcifeeerrr.." she cooed, holding her hand out for him to crawl into when he ran back down the sleeve. "Yeah he's a coquin." she said, repeating what her mother always said. Her mum didn't much like Calcifer, but he'd been the only way Dalia would agree to move to Hogwarts.. |
Quote:
Alice giggled and squirmed a little more as Calcifer exited her sleeve. "At least He isn't a boring pet." Because who wanted that? Like a Fish? Lame. "What's Coquin mean?" The redhead was positive she hadn't heard that word before. |
Quote:
Dalia nodded, letting Calcifer run up to her shoulder and sit in her hair. He wasn't boring. Except when he was asleep, which was quite a lot actually. Dal was starting to realise that rats were pretty lazy. "Oh... um... sort of... trouble maker?" She wasn't thaaat sure... "Rascal. I think." Yeah, that sounded right. |
For anyone!! Feel free to grab <3 Noelle had made her a spot in the reading room. She had about three books scattered around her and one in her lap. All thoughts were off the others in the room and completely on the books in front of her. Animagus Noelle was awfully curious about how to become one. She'd talked to her big sister on multiple occasions about it due to her going through the process. But now, she wanted to learn all she could. That way, maybe she could learn as well. How cool would it be to be an auror one day with the ability to transform? |
Spencer been reading up on advance spells, he was curious as to what they did, although being a second year he wasn't able to do much, but no harm in learning early right? Besides if he wanted to be an Auror someday he had to be at the top of his game, not many now thirteen year olds knew what they wanted to be, but Spencer came from a long line of Aurors, so he always wanted to be one. Spencer been reading a lot of books lately on curses, hexes as well as charms and other stuff, he really wanted to make good grades. Although he did make good grades, he did have to do away with causing trouble, something he never was good at. Spencer was very much a troublemaker, and has been since he could remember, but no harm of having a couple of detentions right? Spencer carried his books in his book bag, and headed towards his favorite corner of the reading room, and took a seat before getting out his books. Among him he had four books, a book on advance spells and the other two were on hexes and curses, while the last one was on charms. He had to say, he was learning a lot due to these books, and he was getting better at dueling and muggle fighting and self defense/karate. He wasn't the pruney boy he was, he was more leaner and gotten some muscles on him, which had girls all over him. |

“Hey buttercup…don’t ask I just felt like saying it” she muttered at the end but still grinned at the older girl. “Sooooooo how…um…” and cue the early onset blushing. “how did you know you liked Noah?” She finally just blurted out and couldn’t even make eye contact with her…gosh this was so nerve-wracking. |
Spencer and Mel ^_^ Engrossed in her animagus book, she was surprised to hear footsteps coming into the reading room. It wasn't a very well trafficked spot so Noelle hearing them made her look up. Who she spotted made her wince a bit. Spencer They hadn't ended on good terms from what she remembered. She glanced at him as he sat down. She would wait until he acknowledged her. Then she would wave. She didn't know how to act around him. But she didn't have long to think about that before another set of footsteps came into play. Mel. Noelle grinned at her younger friend. Buttercup? She wasn't going to ask but it sounded like a country term and that was right up her alley since she was a country girl. "How did I know I liked Noah?" Where was this going. Noelle blushes and wiggled in her seat, shutting the animagi book. "Well, I think everyone is different. Like with Sabbie... I grew to like him. With Noah, it was instant but I had pushed it aside because of my feelings for Sabbie. Why? Who do you like?" Because that would be the number one reason she was asking right? |
Spence said hi to Noelle! <3 Quote:
He looked at Noelle and waved at her before smiling sheepishly at her. "Hey Noey long time no see or talk, how are you! "Spencer asked her. He had seen her at the same place he took his karate classes, so he wondered if she took karate, he was curious to find out. Spencer changed alot since they last seen each other, he was more mature and grown up, weird how life makes you grow up. Although he was only a second year, he was now thirteen and a teenager, he was no longer a kid. He went back to reading his book at the sight of a girl who appeared to be her friend talking to her, he didn't want to bug them, not when they were talking. He flipped the page of his book before reading up more on advance spells, which he was very interested in learning more about them, but he loved Defense Against the Dark Arts it was his favorite class. |

“I…my friend also likes him but I don’t want to be pushy about it? B-because well…she really likes Tenacius and he’s my best friend but I’ve well” she shrugged “sort of had a bit of a crush on him since I met him when I was like four or five?” She sighed and sat down there. “And I kind of don’t want to like anyone…but Carl’s so nice and well Tenacius he’s Ace” she was blushing now of course as she always did when she spoke about crushes. |
mentions of spencey SPOILER!!: Mel Oh, he was speaking. Phew. Good. Because Noelle was awful at pretending people didnt exist.She did NOT want to do that. Letting out a breath of relief she waved to him. She smiled and started to speak but then noticed that Mel was going off a mile a minute. okay. She would speak with Spence later. She needed to concentrate on the crsis that was going on with Mel. Boys. Love/hate relationship there. Noelle listened to Mel trying to decipher what she was saying. Was it her or was Mel talking extremely fast? Carl and Tenacious. but Tenacious seemed to e liked by two people? Haddie included. Hmm... "So is there someone you like more or...?" Liking two boys at the same time was a nasty thing. Noelle knew. She had that problem and it haadnt ended well. Well.... /now/ things were good but before.... not so much. |
