Hogwarts RPG Name: Folake Otedola Slytherin First Year | Jaimine stepped out the girls bathroom running her hands through her hair. She walked out to the third floor corridor looking around the hall the disappearing up the stairs.

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie Juno turned the corner only to find an empty corridor. How quaint! How refreshing? No fristies clinging to him asking dumb questions. No 3rd years tossing dung bombs down each others pants. No 6 years giving googily eyes. No 7th years playing tonsil hockey. It was a blessing to be people free if only for a few seconds. He hadn't realized how time consuming and annoying being a Prefect could be. And given the opportunity, he's probably have turned it down. But alas, here he was. The reluctant prefect.
He rubbed his forehead a bit wishing he could go back to the Ravenclaw common room and sit and read his new pyro explosions book that Kemma had gotten him. But no. He had to go back and do homework and study. Ahh...the life of a 5th year student!

Alexandra Lee Department of Mysteries | Alexandra turned into what she thought was an empty hallway, so she kept her head down. Not paying attention as she tripped over a Ravenclaw who was sitting in the corridor. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Faye wasn't running anymore, but she was still pacing like a deranged penguoin. She knew she shouldn't go back to the Common Room yet. She wasn't good with rooms; she liked to be active, to move around, to pace when something was eating at her. She loved her art most of all, but she felt stiffled in her dormitory. Especially where there was no one to talk to. Well you wouldn't have that problem if you would just suck it up and make a friend, would you? The critical little voice in her head pointed out. "Shut up," she said outloud with out realizing it. I don't know how; I've never had to make friends before, I just had them.
Rioppelle followed Fabienne as she paced, meowing; he was sure his human had lost her mind.

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie Juno stopped his his tracks hearing some noise behind him. He turned in a slow circle sure it was the resident polterguist. It wasn't. It was some Gryffindor girl pacing. He watched her for a moment. "You know. If you keep pacing like that, you'll wear a path in the stone."

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Faye squeaked and jumped a foot into the air. Rioppelle valiantly leapt ahead of her to guard her from the... student? who scared the living daylights of her. She tried to think of a smart retort... "Maybe." None found obviously. She blushed red to match the streaks in her hair and wished she didn't sound like such a moron. "But then we can say I actually accomplished something today." she added weakly.

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie "Oh yes. What an accomplishment that would be!" He held his hands out in front of his face, then spread them apart as he talked. "Today I wore a track in the cobblestones!" He dropped his hands, bumping his mustard yellow satchel hanging from his left shoulder. "Brilliant. Simply Brilliant." He found very hard not to roll his eyes. Girls! they were crazy. All of them! Kemma included. And his sister- no his sister was insane.

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Faye's temper immediately flared. Couldn't this snotty little boy see she was having a BAD day? Her nerves were stretched thin and he was provoking her? "I see you didn't make prefect because of your people-skills," Faye sniped, placing her hands on her hips and drawing herself up to a not so impressive full height of 5'4". "I suppose you must be one of those academic achievers. Why would you take patrol duty if you can't handle it?"
Okay, it wasn't the strongest comeback, but it made her feel a little better.

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie "Patrol duty? Academic achievers? HA!" He laughed, although he noted that she could tell he was a prefect even at the distance she was at. "Despite the stereotype, I'd rather be working on my own personal experiments then writing essays or studying theories. But it seems to me that you could use some sort of hobby yourself. Pacing doesn't count as one."

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker "I hardly think I need to defend myself to you, you nasty little-" Faye made a strangled noise and stamped her foot. "Not that it's any of your business, but I happen to be an artist. So I do have a hobby. Thank you very much. I just don't like being couped up. I don't call pacing a hobby, I call it something to do with my energy other than argue with nose-in-the-air prefects!"
Faye finished her tirade, chest heaving, and felt much better.

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie "Ah well, then of you don't like being cooped up, then perhaps you should take a pad or a tarp or a pile of mud and go outside and do your artistry thing?" He wiggled his hand in the air a bit. "I mean - then you wouldn't be cooped up now would you?" Youngin's and their tempers. "I mean, that would make sense..." he stopped himself before making a comment about how Gryffindor didn't do things that made sense.

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker It was an unfortunate situation. Faye clearly misunderstood the question. She advanced upon the offensive boy like a locomotive. "Is that some sort of dig at my heritage?" Faye demanded wildly, not stopping to consider what else he could have meant. "Do you think it's easy being the only Native Canadian person in your school in your own country, and then to come here? Where you're even MORE alone? Just to have someone like you make fun of me? Well let me tell you something: I may have rough days, and rotten little boys like you might say mean things and make me want to run back home crying, but I'm proud of every drop of blood in my veins. So just go get stuffed, or blow yourself up with your experiments or whatever it is you do!"

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie What the bloody heck was this girl going on about? Canadians? Blood? What? "What is your bloody problem!? I didn't say anything about blood - or you ruddy French wanna be's over in the frozen tundra of wherever." He stood his ground, arms crossed over his chest, half -covering his prefects badge. This girl was either extremely brave of extremly stupid to pick a fight with a prefect.

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker Faye's eyes went as large as dinner plates. "WANNABE'S? Oh, you have NO IDEA what you're talking about! French culture and language is a HUGE bone of contention in Canadian society and politics, when did I ever say I was French anyway? And I can promise you that to be French-Canadian and to be French, are two VERY different things! First of all -" Faye paused and suddenly deflated. "You know what? This is ridiculous. We've gone from a light hearted comment about wearing a hole in the floor to the politcal and social climate of Canada for the last two hundred years, and while I love History, language laws, and human rights disputes aren't what most people call scintilating conversation. I still think you have an attitude problem that makes me look something akin to well-adjusted, but this argument is stupid. Can we just call it a draw and go back to our corners?"

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie "15." He snorted and then shoved his hands into his pockets. "And it's just what I am. So deal with it or move onto brighter and warmer climates." His mustard yellow bag had slid down his arm. He shrugged his shoulders a bunch of times but it didn't do anything. Finally he pulled it back up. "Why are you - acting like a 6 year old throwing a tantrum?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker "I'm also 15. Thanks, you're so kind." Faye forced a smile. "Let me put it this way: I don't need your nasty criticisms. I have my own nasty critisms. The ones you come up with, you seem to turn on everyone else, mine are reserved strictly for me. So I'm pacing in a corridor telling myself off for being shy, for not being like everyone else, for leaving home, for not being able to handle it, for having a temper, for existing, and then you come along and start critisicing me too and that's just a little more criticism than I can take. Largely this was a case of wrong place, wrong time. And I guess I'm sorry I gave you trouble, but you're not exactly the type that handles with care, if you know what I mean. Not that it's your job but. And I'm rambling and I'll stop now, and yes I'm probably insane, it's probably because of the whole art thing there are studies that show connections between creativity and insanity, and wow I'm still talking - sorry."

Shawn Parias | ::squawks:: Rhinestone Ravvie Juno stood there mouth open a little as the girl in front of him babbled and rambled and poured her ickle bitty Gryffindor heart out. She had called him kind. Was she nuts? She had to be. At one point, he remembered to blink. First his blue eye, then his green. He wrinkled his nose and then scrunched up his forehead in an attempt to follow her rambling. Is that even English? Or did she slip into French? No no…Kemma sounds like that every once in a while. It must be a girl thing. Womanese or something. He pulled his satchel strap over his head, letting it rest against his left hip as it hung across his chest. It took him a moment to realize the girl had stopped talking. He was speechless, but only for a moment. Did she really think he cared about anything that spewed out of her mouth? And she thought he was criticizing. Boy did she have a lot to learn. “That wasn’t criticism. It was an observation and a suggestion. And however you want to take it, take it. Use it. Tear the piece of advice up into tiny little bits and eat it for all I care. Just don’t go screaming and yelling and putting words in people’s mouths. And jumping down their throats for things they didn’t say.”

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker "For the love of -" Faye broke off before uttering what would have been a long string of of French curses. Was this normal British behaviour? She certainly didn't remember it from her last visit to Hogwarts. If it was then what they said about Canadian's being friendlier was certainly true. "WHY are you like this? Are you always this way? You have this aura of petulance that extends ten feet in any direction! And you aren't taking any criticism or observations I've made with any particular grace either, you know."

Ivan Callistus Accidents & Catastrophes | Kemma shifted her satchel - overladen as usual with books for school and pleasure. The strap dug uncomfortably into her shoulder and caused her to lean like a hunchback as she carted it around. So involved in making it to her next class under the duress of so much weight was Kemma that she didn't see who was doing all the yelling in the hall until she nearly ran them over.
"Juno?" Kemma blinked. And some girl. A French girl. They eat snails! was Kemma's first horrified thought.

Hogwarts RPG Name: *whistle* | Fabienne Guidry NeeNee Omniscient Omnipotent Pie Maker The boy never came up with an answer - another voice joined into the mix instead. Faye blinked and stared around the corridor until her gaze came to rest upon a smallish girl struggling under the weight of entirely too many books and a heavy bag. "Who's Juno? I'm Faye." She asked dimly, the only Juno that she knew of was the ancient Roman goddess of childbirth, someone she didn't expect to see at Hogwarts.

Ivan Callistus Accidents & Catastrophes | "I'm going to class," Kemma remarked, surprised. Clearly this was a school. Clearly she was a student. Where else would she be going? What else would she be doing? Through her small glasses Kemma peered further at the French girl. Interesting in a ghoulish sort of way. But then, French people rather alarmed Kemma. The waiters always made fun of her and called her petite. Made her feel like a pixie.
"What are you two doing?"
