Staff and students alike can agree that the last few days have been...rough.
With the gates locked and the outside world nowhere to be seen, one may begin to despair that they were in for a miserable Christmas. No fear on that one. Your Professors have organized a little something for this December 24th. The Great Hall has had all the tables removed and boxes of decorations lay about. To the side, you'll find smaller tables filled with cookies and candy for the holiday.
Boxes containing blankets and pillows can be found to the corners. They're for the massive sleepover to be had later on. The...non-negotiable...sleepover....that happens to be.....non-negotiable.
So come on over. Help the Professors decorate the Great Hall. Have some cookies. Are you dressed in your PJs like you were asked? If not, get that sorted and hurry back! There will be carols, hot chocolate and a jolly good time for all!

What fun they were having. Cassie continued on with decorating the bottom half of the tree. She had gotten some bulbs on and ribbons. With the music changing to another fun Christmas song Cassie began humming along to it as she bopped around the tree. Charlotte , could you grab that ornament and bring it over here."[/b] She could use some more help on this tree and seeing the girl come in she took the opportunity to get her attention.
Hearing Noah agree for a dance off made the blonde professor excited. "This will be great. We will make sure there are some good fast songs. I got one person, anyone else?" Yes she was looking at ALL the Professors. "Headmasterwant to be a judge for this?" It could be something fun to get everyone involved. "What about you Mr. Raine would you like to help judge or even be a dancer?" There was no reason to make him feel unwelcome here. He was clearly stuck with them through Christmas.
Looking around the room she caught Aboli again in her sight, "What about you Aboli, want to dance a little?" The more people she could get the better. Kimberly seemed up to the task of dancing, "Brilliant, anyone else?"
What was wrong with wanting a good story any how? A good story was his only form of life support at the moment, so he didn't appreciate the way the young girl [Anna Banana] spoke about his livelihood. "Tell you what's going on!?" Sunny laughed hard and when he realized it wasn't a joke, he laughed even harder. "I've said all I know. Storms like these are truly an enigma. Exciting we get to live through one, isn't it?" He eyes sparkled with genuine curiosity. His had done his research, of course, but there was only so much you could read up on an anomaly that came around once every century.
He was about to elaborate on some of his suspicions when he heard his name called by the nicest woman [Bazinga] in the castle by far. "Sounds like fun. I'd be happy to judge." Nearly done with his cookie, he walked over.
She had changed into PJs as requested, feeling even less holiday-ish since she was fairly certain they would have gotten new holiday PJs back at home. So it was just regular wintery PJs for the time being as she’d headed into the Great Hall with Gwydion trailing behind. Her cat could help decorating, somehow, and at least she had her sister there with her. Seeing as she’d seen Carsyn had gotten there before her, as well as Cole and several others she knew.

He made her happy. So they would make the best of this Hogwarts holiday. Naya continued to nibble on her cookie as she pondered Cole’s question. “I don’t know how they learned, but they are definitely good bakers. These cookies are really good.” Looking up, she noticed her other dormie (Carsyn) glancing their way. After giving a wave and a smile to her Prefect, Naya turned her attention back to her group of three.
Now, it was time to decorate. Naya looked at Islay and said, “Ready?”. She held on to Cole’s hand, as they headed toward one of the Christmas trees. She knew she would have to let go eventually, but she was going to delay that moment as long as possible. Taking Cole’s suggestion, Naya went for the candles. Knowing this was a two handed job, she reluctantly let go of Cole’s hand. Then addressing her two decorating partners, she said, “Let’s do this.”
Could she keep her hand in his forever? Maybe not, but Cole was super happy that Naya didn’t withdraw her hand from his right away. She kept it there even as they headed over to the large tree that they had picked out to decorate. Eating up the last of his cookie he commented. "We could ask an elf sometime if it wouldn’t be considered rude of us." He wasn’t sure how house elves ethics worked. Maybe there was things like baking skills that you didn’t ask or talk about?
As they stopped in front of the tree Naya let go of Cole’s hand. He hoped just a little bit that she reluctantly let go and not with willingness because his hand was sweaty. With as much cheer as he could muster Cole agreed with a wide smile. "Yes, let’s get started! If you two start with setting up the lights on the lower branches then i can get started on the lights near the top." Seeing Carys looking alone and a little lost Cole waved and called over "Hi Carys! Want to come over and help us?" They were already three so the more the merrier. Fetching a chain of lights Cole raised his head to take in the tree. Now how best to get the lights up?

Heath stood off to the side, watching the scene unfold around him. He saw the thumbs up Kimmie gave him and returned it with a small smile. The thought crossed his mind to join her, but he saw she was with several older students that he didn’t know very well. If they were anything like his older sister, they probably wouldn’t like him intruding, so he stayed where he was. Speaking of whom, where was Ariel anyway? His eyes scanned the room for the familiar blue-eyed brunette, but he didn’t see her anywhere. She must be off with her Gryffindor friends, not that it mattered. Wherever his sister was, he doubted she’d want to talk to him.
He was lost in thought when a loud voice startled him; he instantly recognized that voice, even before he looked up and saw Rainwater and the plant trolley. Great, now both of the professors who scared him were here! Heath looked around, desperately searching for someone to join before he drew too much attention to himself by standing alone. He was glad when Ivy spoke to him. He smiled slightly, giving her a look of gratitude. For a moment, he wondered if she recognized his jacket, but he didn’t ask. For once in his life, he didn’t much feel like talking about Star Wars! “Thanks,” he replied. “My brother gave it to me for my birthday.” His smile faded as his thoughts once again turned to his family. He looked down to hide the sad look in his eyes, and as he did, he noticed Ivy’s Christmas tree socks. “I, er… like your socks. Very festive.”
Wow, Heath! Could you possibly be any more awkward?! He inwardly berated himself. Before he could embarrass himself any further, he saw Claudine approaching. His mood instantly brightened. “Hi,” he said, smiling.. He blinked, slightly taken aback by her invitation to decorate, but the initial shock didn’t last long. “Okay, sure,” he said, nodding.
Then he looked back at Ivy. As eager as Heath was to go and decorate with Claudine, it seemed rude to leave her by herself, especially when she’d been nice enough to talk to him. “You’re coming too, right?” he asked. After all, she was invited too!

Islay gave them a kind smile, she hadn’t of course heard any of what Naya and Cole were speaking of...if she had she would have likely sighed at the adorableness of it before just decorating things. Truly, it wasn’t that she was cheerful. It was that the sixth year wanted to at least give the younger students feel like being here and...turning translucent at times was, well, not something they needed to panic about.
Stay calm. Pretend nothing is wrong...and smile, that had been her entire plan for the sleepover. She jus smiled as she looked around and saw he rother friends there as well – giving them waves she returned her attention to Cole, Carsy, and Naya. “I’m good, - do we need a ladder or anything?” Islay asked as she looked around at the supplies they had for decorations.

Listen, Claudine recognised Heath as an introvert like herself. This was perhaps why she felt like she understood him; it could also explain why she eventually warmed up to Schmoe for he was one of them too. Also, no one needed to tell her that Heath was feeling totally out of place at the moment. She was so pleased to see that he didn’t mind her invitation. Looking over at Carsyn, Claudine thought that the older girl had abandoned her for friends her own age. Whatever. It wasn’t as though this third year cared.
Instead, Claudine turned her attention back to Heath and Ivy and beckoned them. “Come on,’’ she told them, already taking a step towards the tree Trent had assigned her. She could hardly wait to get started on rooting out the decorations hidden in the box.

And here was ABOLI hugging him. Oh hey! The boy failed to notice how tightly she hugged him and the small smile that his girlfriend offered. Yes, Noah just thought his Slytherin friend was just being enthusiastic in her own Aboli-Calico way. "Calico! Happy Christmas," he returned her hug before taking a step back to see Minjae placing a ladder down.
Minjae was so cool and his sense of style was always on point. "They're awesome. Love the color," he smiled. Seriously the color suited Minjae and was very festive. "How's your Christmas so far?" He tried to keep the conversation upbeat and focused on the now instead of what would have been. It was difficult to do so cause every moment of the day reminded him that he ought to be at home.
Kimmie's question on where to put the thistle grabbed his attention. "Doorway?" he suggested and was about to reach out to lend a hand when Professor K was talking. OOH. So she was stoked too! Sweet. He offered Professor K a smile when she got all excited. Seeing her get excited just made the boy more excited himself. Yes, very excited! Wide smile now, Noah felt his spirits uplifted. "Kimmie? Wanna join the dance off?" he asked, making his way over to her. He felt the need to pull her into a hug. He didn't know why.
His eyes scanned the room and he saw the Hufflepuff Prefect (Carys, wasn't it?) join the room and he waved to her. "Happy Christmas!" he grinned. He hadn't gotten a chance to talk to her but if she was anything like his house Prefect, he was sure that she was nice.

As for Blake… could he stay with his prim, proper and perfect girlfriend instead? Claudine moved over to the box to get started as the music echoed through the Hall. Oh, she knew this one and found herself humming along to it as the cookie was polished off.
You know what? One cookie never was enough. “I’ll be back,’’ she told Carsyn. At the refreshment table once more, Claudine snagged a tissue, piled cookies onto it then crammed it into the pocket of her pajama top. All set for decorating she was. But would Carsyn mind if Claudine took a few more minutes to observe the others? Aboli was looking sick, Schmoe looking rather unique, Eris doing a good job with his own decorating, Kitridge was looking even more bouncy, the house elf helpful as always, Heath decked out in the Star Wars things {of course}, Cole and Naya being all lovey dovey {gag}, that suspicious Raine man no doubt was going to target other students for stupid quotes like he had done to her in the Barn.
Seeing prim, proper and perfect Bellchant head her way, towards the table, Claudine quickly slipped away and beelined for Heath. She hung back a bit until Ivy had done speaking to him. “Hi, Ivy. Hi, Heath. Either one of you want to help me decorate a tree? Trent assigned Carsyn and I to one.’’
Hey, it was the Holidays and that must have put her in a slightly social mood.

Oh, it had been a birthday present from his brother? "That's pretty cool." Looked like a pretty nice gift! She would've asked when his birthday was, out of curiosity, but then he noticed her socks. Ivy's grin grew. "Thanks! I didn't have a Christmas jumper so I thought the socks would be fitting."
And now Claudine was here! And...inviting them to help decorate one of the trees! She LOVED decorating! It was her favorite part of the holiday, truth be told. She had a lot of favorites, technically, but this one was definitely a big one.
"Yeah, definitely!" she said, nodding at Heath and moving to follow Claudine over to the tree.

Willy's eyes widened for just a second at mention of Nem's ears bleeding (literally, were they bleeding?! Should someone get Gabi?!), but then he got it. HAH. The singing. "Really makes you miss silencio, huh?" He smirked and spun the third-year around again, his hand still on their shoulder as he steered Nem back into the Great Hall.
"Anyway, I've got something you can help me with. And it doesn't involve decorations OR sing-songs." Yada yada yada, spreading Christmas cheer for all to hear. This season was the WORST, didn't the kids learn that yet? He'd been expecting less cheer and more THE HOLIDAYS SUCK campers here. He was the leader of that camp, honestly. Hand still on shoulder, WWW directed Nem toward the smaller side-tables that contained cookies, candy, and hot chocolate.
Then he paused to make sure no one was nearby to eavesdrop. "The thing is, Nem, you're a clever kid. A great problem solver. I've got a... a small furry problem," he tapped his jacket pocket gently, because heck to the no was WWW going to wear pajamas between the castle and his hut and a double heck-no if anyone thought he was going to sleep in here ON THE FLOOR when he had a perfectly sizeable bed outside. "My furry problem needs some food. I forgot it was in my pocket when I walked here." HONESTLY, he had been developing memory problems all school year. It was a TERRIBLE sign of aging or something else.
"So if you'll just take thisssssss," he cupped the sleeping baby knarl in his free hand, and held it out to deposit into Nem's instead, "I'll just get me some sncaks and be on my way and we'll call it a day." Jolly good, cheerio, pip pip, Happy Christmas, and all those other stupid expressions. Right-o, WWW smirked at Nem and let go of the Slytherin's shoulder, moving instead to start piling his pockets with candy and cookies.
Really, Williamson could say that again. Except it would be better if he didn't, so they could avoid adding unnecessary repetitive statements to the general din of the Hall.
Despite being none too happy about being shepherded back into the Great Hall and the celebrations, Nem didn't make a comment on the matter, or any great fuss at all, because... "I can be very helpful when I want to be." Which, maybe they would. Maybe not. Nem only knew that they didn't want any part of this 'decorating and singing' business, and that their curiosity might have been piqued. Slightly.
Stopping by the table of refreshments, Nem looked up at Williamson - he didn't have a nickname yet, but there was plenty of time for that, no point forcing these things - with a shrewd sort of look. Because that was definitely flattery, and he was definitely acting a little shifty - take it from a professional.
... What was this?
"Huh." Nem held out their hand to accept delivery of the creature, then casually cupped it to their chest in case of nosy neighbours in the vicinity, all the while eyeing Williamson, who was already sidling off to fill his boots. "Don't worry, sir. I won't tell anyone you're giving gifts to your favourite students." Because this baby knarl? Nem was happy to claim it. It was theirs now. One person's furry problem was another's spiky gain. They slipped the little creature into the front pocket of their hoodie, still with a hand cradled around it, and made as if to inspect the food on offer as well.
Wow. Rainbow (aka Smiles (aka the artist formerly known as Sunny Raine)) got just about everywhere, didn't he? Nem cast him a glance, an eye roll, and turned back to the table to grab a candy cane or three. Providing for the siblings. Sure.

She as also grateful to be there for Hope so that Nessa wouldn't worry as much knowing she was watching over her.
This wasn't about her and her feelings though, no, she had a job to do and she had children to watch over. All the students were her kids now she always felt that way when she taught, so the five foot professor put on her red robes and a Santa hat and entered the Great Hall. "HELLLLLLLO, HELLOOOO." A big smile on her face as she heard the singing, "I love this song!"
"What a bright time its the right time to rock the night away. Jingle bell time is a swell time to go riding in a one-horse sleigh."
She began to dance around her smile just as big as it always was. Though she was beginning to notice that some of the students and professors didn't seem so happy, which she knew just the right thing for that. Hugs, hugs made things better. She started with William and moved to Aboli.
"Happy Christmas to all"

All the elves were wanting to please the misses and misters, but they were behind now that things had to be made slower.
"Beezley has more cookies, Beezley hopes you like them."
WWW had almost forgotten all about the knarl handoff. Not because he was all that forgetful on an ordinary day okay, maybe that wasn't true but because Nem had so seamlessly slipped it into their hoodie.
Huh. WAS the kid one of his favorites? Had he said that too? "Right, thanks, appreciate it," he replied lightly, stuffing an entire cookie in his mouth anyway and grinning around it. What was the harm in handing out a few animals now and then, huh? Maybe he had also forgotten the Headmaster's strict pre-term warning about no pets in the castle, too... ahaha oh well.
WWW was just finishing up stuffing his jacket pockets full of cookies wrapped in napkins when a small but very bright blonde person sing-danced-HUGGED him. He froze in place, almost saying something that would have certainly spewed crumbs all over Cassie's head. But fortunately, he realized who was hugging him, and since he didn't mind her, he managed to not be TERRIBLY awkward as he pat-patted her back.
Also, it was a blessedly short hug, because no one really wanted to see William turn the color of holly berries, amiright?
He was nearly finished raiding the treat table and was preparing to depart when lo and behold... Beezley the house elf appeared. Ah. Well. He had to snag a few of THESE cookies, right? Fresh cookies?!
"Thanks, Beezlebub, you're the best," Willy greeted the house elf, absent-mindedly butchering her name as he now stuffed his trouser pockets and his mouth with fresh cookies. Once he was fully loaded, for the umpteenth time, he smiled amicably at anyone watching him, filled up a cup with hot chocolate, and departed the great hall.
He REALLY didn't want to witness a dance-off, and the more Christmas carols he heard, the more hard of hearing he was convinced he became. So. Off to his hut he went, leaving the knarl baby in Nem's care, and all the rest of these Christmas shenanigans in someone else's capable hands. Not his kids, not his problem, right? Right.

Just when Isla thought it was safe to apologize to Sunny Raine and give him a second chance for sneaking into the school and bringing his shenanigans along with him, he decided to change his attitude altogether. "You're bound to know something we don't know," she said, trying to be polite, even though she felt like rolling her eyes. "You came all the way to our school, which is apparently the exact and only location of the storm, snuck on to the grounds, and even camped out here."
...and after that, he had the nerve to laugh at her when she wanted more details? WEIRDO. But just like that, he was gone. Whatever. He could go off and enjoy whatever the professor had planned for him. "I think I'm heading back to the common room, Blake. I just don't feel like being holly and jolly," she said, giving him an apologetic look. "Try to have a fun night, mmkay?" With that, she left the Great Hall. Was it safe to say this was the most miserable Christmas ever?

It was time to get to work, so Naya got some lights and began to string them around the bottom of the tree. Looking at Islay, she said, “I think a ladder would be a good idea.” Since magic was out of the question, a ladder would help in reaching the top part of the tree. Did they even have a ladder around? Magic would make decorating so much easier, but not as much fun.
Naya kept taking peeks at Cole. Watching him just made her feel better. “Hey Cole?”, she said with a smile. “How are you doing up there?”. Just checking. At this point, Naya was determined to make the best of the situation. She was going to enjoy this party.......or else.
