Study Area
|
As a token of Congratulations for his dear Gryffindors in winning the Gobstones Cup, Art had levitated up the stairs some cookies and butterbeer for all to share and enjoy. He placed them in the middle of one of the tables and took a few sips of a butterbeer himself. |
GOBSTONES CHAMPIONS. She'd helped with that. So, feeling as though it were appropriate, Olivia dressed down in her pajamas, as was her usual style (poop emoji bedroom slippers included), and be-bopped down to the common room, or more importantly, the study tables. Any excuse to enjoy snacks, she thought. Dancing over to grab a butterbeer bottle and some cookies, the blonde beamed. "Aye, Professor!" It was a good day, wasn't it? Liv thought so. |
Dora had not helped with the Gobstones win, but when she smelt cookies she peered over the back of the sofa she was currently stretched out on. Her nose could sense sweets from a kilometer away... Okay, maybe not that far, but she was much like a blood hound when it came to confectionery delights. Hmmm... Watching Olivia dance (?) Over, the older blonde eyed her HoH and rolled off the sofa. Literally, okay? Rolling onto her feet, Dora stretched before beginning to inch her way forward. Newton was the only professor she trusted to take food and drink from, after all... Inch... iiiinnnncchhhhhh... INCH! Was he willing to share with those not of the gobstone playing variety? HMMMM? |
"Hello there Miss Phillips," Art said with a big grin. "Mighty good work on the Gobstones pitch, there. Well done!" He was happy to see her taking some butterbeer and cookies, so that he wouldn't be the only one eating and drinking. Miss Umbridge was there, too. Art looked her way as he saw someone uniquely getting off the couch, and waved a hand. "Hello there Miss Umbridge. We're celebrating!" He was happy, he liked celebrating. "Cookies and butterbeer, if you fancy?" |
They won Gobstones! HUZZAH!! He helped win that he did.... ok well not exactly win it but he pitched in. Got some delectable gobstones slime to prove it too. Which is why he padded into the study area in a bathrobe and a towel draped over his head. Obviously someone has hit the showers. Gobstones isnt a fragrance that suited him. Cookies though? Oh yeah that aroma suited him very well. Tenacius has already managed to munch through a handful by the time he got his greeting out "Hey there Professor. Heyy everybodeh!!" he cheered at those present with that nice frothy glass of butterbeer. |
Dora ADORED her Head of House, she did! Smiling at him, she moved closer now. "Oh! We won? Excellent! And I'd love some cookies, sir! " she said before giving the old man a swift hug. Yep. She HUGGED Newton before moving to snatch up some cookies. One in each hand, you see! Hehe. Liv got a quick smile before the older Lion shoved half of one of those cookies in her mouth and began to chew. Hmmm. Maybe she would wander back toward the fireplace now. |
Work is NOT SS!friendly, sometimes. Olivia preened beneath the weight of her Head of House's praise. Of course, it wasn't all on her. Their very handsome Head Boy had been mostly responsible, as well as Lance. It was definitely a team effort! And honestly, that made it so much more enjoyable for her. Liv thoroughly enjoyed being on a team. "Thanks, sir. For a moment there, I thought Hufflepuff might lick us, but Frankie and Lance really pulled it off." She was all sorts of animated and excited over the victory. Oh, and there was a wild Dora...AND Ace. "Hey guys!" Of course, she was cut off from saying anything further as she had a mouth full of cookie, but snacks were very important, you see? Food before conversation was a personal motto of hers. Chew, chew, chew..... Swallow. Sip her butterbeer. Repeat. Eventually, the blonde came up for air. "Do you guys have any exciting summer plans?" It was asked in general to their small group. |
"Hello Mr Salander, good game playing there." Art was a proud man right now, and the grin on his face proved it. "How long have you been playing Gobstones?" "We certainly did," Art boomed. Next minute, the young lioness was HUGGING him. He wasn't used to hugs, not whilst at Hogwarts anyway. But he was in a good mood, and he gave her a gentle pat!hug back. He let out a chuckle at her double cookie grab, but there were plenty there and he was more than happy for them to pig out. They were celebrating, after all. "Oh, yes they did," Art said, making a fist and pushing it through the air, mindful to do so away from Miss Phillips's head. "But we pulled through." As lions do, of course. Art was also interested in all of their summer plans and made no effort to give them privacy to talk. |
Noelle entered the Common Room, about to retreat to her little section by the fire she had been claiming as her own for the last few weeks until she noticed something different. Heading over to the study area, Noelle looked around curiously. As soon as she stepped in, she noticed the quiet from the rest of the common room. Oh. My. Merlin. This was a little spot of heaven. Especially since the end of term was coming and Noelle was trying to cram every last bit of studying time she could get in. She was sure Professor Newton and Professor Hirsch were about through with her constant questions. Speaking of Professor Newton, she saw him talking to a few students. She gave a little wave to Liv and Dora as she took a seat and started unpacking her sack to begin studying. |
"Thanks Professah!" the Gryffindor Ace beamed back. He felt like he could've really nailed his turn on the gobstones, but hey, he was out-Henry'd. Not that he felt bad about it as Henry was a good buddy. "Oh been playing a while Sir, since I was real small and knew enough not to swallow them.... the boy laughed "...but yeah nothing really competitive, just funsies with friends." Oh summer plans? He took a few sips more of his butterbeer as he tried to recall anything his parents may have said "Uh... not really I think? My sister was just born a coupla months ago so I think we're staying home mostly. Our house is new too so theres some parts of it that still needs to be worked on , like decorated or something." Basically make the house look lived in. "What about you guys what are your summer plans?" |
Bowing out Dora smiled at Liv and as she opened her mouth to speak... someone else had started chiming in. No big deal... and it gave Dora a moment to let her eyes wander over the room. And there was Noelle. Hmph. Still being upset with her Dora turned her head as she waved. Nope. It was bad enough they shared a dorm at the moment. Really it hurt Dora's heart more than anything. BUT at this moment, the blonde was going to use everyone's distraction to slip away from the small crowd and into the common room proper. Back to her sofa. Back to the fireplace. Away from people. |
