Ravenclaw I feel so awesome with a starting post!
Firestarter

Nate walked rather purposefully to the center of his and Jez's version of the Room of Requirement, different ways to spice up their duels already coming to mind. Checking back over his shoulder to make sure he had left the door cracked for Jez, Nate stopped in the middle of the room and looked around at the stacks of now-dead dummies. Oh, what fun were they to destroy!

Although Jez wasn't present yet, Nate decided to start his plotting right away. He closed his eyes and thought hard about a large desk of carved marble, it's top adorned with a granite chessboard with gold and silver pieces. When his eyes opened, that same desk of his imagination was growing from the ground. "I'm never going to get tired of that..." he said, a smile crossing his face. This room was probably one of his favorites in the entire castle. This, and Schirmer's class. Charms was awesome. Nate hoisted himself up to sit on top of the stone table, facing the door. Again, to wait for Jezabel Black.

Again, to wait for Jezabel Black.
Jez had noticed the slightly ajar door, and knew that Nate was already in their favourite room. She came in, pulling the door closed behind her, expecting to see him already duelling dummies. Instead, she found him sitting on a chess table. "So we're going brains over brawn today?" she said with a smile, walking over to him. She cast an eye over the pieces. Solid gold and silver, if she wasn't mistaken. That would be worth a pretty Galleon ... as a Black, Jez couldn't help that gold impulse. "Just to warn you, I'm good. Hadrian taught me well." For once it wasn't Keegan or a tutor who'd given Jez information she actually retained. Hadrian had been convinced that Jez would be as good a wizard chess player as he was. True, she'd often made reckless moves just to have the pleasure of seeing her players destroy his, but she'd still managed to win a few.
Jez tapped a knight on the head with her index finger, and it took a swing at her with its little sword. She grinned. "Oh, you're feisty. I like you." Never mind that it just tried to take her finger off ...

Nate hopped off the table and spun around, looking down at the chessboard. "Well, there's one problem with this chessboard, but I hadn't thought of it originally. Give me a second," he said, closing his eyes and imagining the pieces with wands instead of weapons. Sure enough, when he opened his eyes the players were all armed with their very own wands, colored to the opposite team. "Wow, I like the silver wands on the gold players," Nate said as he admired the chessboard. He stayed there, chin down to the table, just adoring his work for a moment before shooting up and clapping his hands together once. He gave Jez a smile and a small nod before he started to explain. "Well, when we duel in here we're always using very deadly spells. For example, Bombarda, Incendio, Reducto, and even Everte Statum can all kill a person rather easily. This chessboard, if I've conjured it right, will teach us a new spell to use on people, one that isn't deadly. The catch is that we have to capture one of the opponent's pieces so the two can demonstrate the spell. What do you think?" Nate finished off enthusiastically, proud of his idea. He made his way around to to the gilded chess pieces and quickly added, "I call gold, by the way."

Jez gave Nate an approving look. "Very Ravenclaw, Nate. I'm assuming that piece we want to capture is the king? Or is it another one?" She smiled when he called gold. "Silver looks better on me anyway," she joked, flicking her hair back and sitting down into thin air behind the silver pieces. A squashy blue armchair appeared before she could fall. "Would gold like the first move?" she asked, leaning back ad waving her hand invitingly at the chessboard. Game on.

Nate himself took a seat into an identical chair behind the marble table. "Well, of course the first person to capture the king wins, but we're going to learn a new spell for every single capture. Granted, we probably will already know a few. Bear with me..." he said as he moved his first knight. Game on.

Jez moved a pawn next, her mind already planning ways to win the game. A few minutes later, she'd captured one of Nate's pieces. "Ha!" she said triumphantly as the silver turned its wand on the gold. The silver piece waved it's wand and said in a tinny voice, "Colloshoo!" Nothing happened.
Jez sighed. "Okey dokey, let's try that again another time." She tried to pick up the gold piece to put it out of the way, but found she couldn't. The piece was stuck to the board. A grin came over Jez's face. "It's a Sticking Charm! Looks like you'll be there for a while, little guy." The gold piece looked up at her sadly as she took its wand to prevent it helping its teammates. Wizard chess pieces didn't always play by the rules.

The gold piece looked up at her sadly as she took its wand to prevent it helping its teammates. Wizard chess pieces didn't always play by the rules.
Nate watched intently as the pieces demonstrated, taking mental notes on the pronunciation of the incantation and the wand movement. Colloshoo: Sticking Charm he thought. He had only repeated that in his head a few times before he noticed the engraved list of spells they had already encountered, one of them being the oh-so-original Expelliarmus. "My turn," he said as they delved back into the game.

With pieces dwindling, Nate himself losing the chess game, more and more captures were beginning to happen. This time, though, he got lucky. As his rook moved in to take one of Jez's knights, it raised its wand and aimed carefully at the silver's face. "Densaugeo!" it yelled intensely, firing the spell from the top of his small tower. The silver knight's teeth suddenly began to grow exponentially, going all the way down to his shiny little belly button. "Den-SAU-ge-o," Nate repeated as the table engraved itself, "Tooth-Enlargement hex."

Jez grinned, pouring over the chessboard. "Don't you dare try that one on me," she warned as her bishop moved in on Nate's rook with a shriek. "Incantation, please," she reminded her chess piece, who promptly stopped shrieking and looked sullen, crossing its arms and pouting. "Are you sulking?" asked Jez with a giggle, poking the bishop's head. "If you stop sulking, I'll let you be near when I win."
The bishop's face brightened, and it pointed its wand at the rook. "Ventus!" A strong gust of air blew at the rook, causing it to fall off the table and into Jez's waiting hand.
"Ventus," muttered Jez, placing the rook into a deep box she'd wished for to stop the gold chess pieces from escaping. They were already trying to climb the smooth sides. "I'll have to remember that ..."

Where was Jez keeping all those pieces? Oh, the same type of box he was keeping his PoWs in. No wonder they both had one. "Alright, let's see..." Nate mused, looking over the board. He was losing, by a lot. His king was actually cowering in fear over in it's spot, surrounded by two pawns, a bishop, a knight, and his queen. Those were all the pieces Nate had left.

He carefully moved his own bishop over to take Jez's. The silver piece looked forlorn at its misfortune. Nate's golden bishop didn't seem to care, flicking it's silver wand at Jez's piece and yelling out in a small voice, "Fodio!" The silver bishop dropped its wand as it clutched its wrist in pain. Unsure how to classify the hex, or what it really did, Nate leaned over to read the calligraphy on the engraved table. Fodio: the Stinging Hex, it read. "Stinging hex," Nate said as he flicked the silver bishop into his bucket. "Your turn," he said.

But the pieces had a different idea. Two pawns ended up locked in an all-out duel, after some brutal taunting on the part of Nate's piece. The table kept track of the spells used, but Nate wasn't watching that. He was busy pulling out his own wand. "Immobulus!" he said, aiming at his own pawn. The pawn froze mid-strike, its eyes flicking nervously between Jez and her unfrozen silver pawn. Luckily, Nate was quick enough to stop the duel that only two spells got out: Anteoculatia: grows antlers on the victim, which was obvious on Nate's pawn, and Locomotor Wibbly: the Jelly-legs curse, with which Nate's pawn had taken down Jez's. Though the silver piece's legs were still unusable, it took advantage of Nate's pawn being frozen to get out one more retaliation spell. "Entomorphis!" it squeaked. Nate's pawn looked scared when the spell was cast, but couldn't brace itself because it was still frozen.

So, still frozen, Nate's pawn morphed into an insectoid creature for around a minute, then back to its original shape. On that one, Nate double-checked the table's recording, just to get it in his head. Entomorphis: temporarily turns the victim into an insect. That one seemed useful...

Jez cheered for her little pawn, giving it a well-deserved pat on the head. "If I could knight you, I would," she told the piece. The thing seemed to glow with pride.
The silver queen moved forward, coming around for the kill. She came up and tried to take the gold queen. "Tarantallegra!" The gold queen began to dance uncontrollably, but it still had a grip on her wand.
"Steleus!" she cried, and the silver queen started to sneeze violently.
"E-ex-pell-i-re-amus!" roared Jez's queen in between sneezes. Needless to say, the spell both went wrong and misfired. It bounced off the chessboard and back up at Jez, who ducked. It ended up hitting the box of gold pieces, which ignited, the pieces inside screaming in terror.
"Aquamenti!" cried Jez in alarm, dousing the flames in water. The box hissed as it cooled, the pieces inside cowering like misbehaving house-elves. Most were half melted. "Sorry about that," she said, both to the pieces and Nate. She waved her wand at the queens. "Finite Incantatum." The gold stopped dancing and the silver stopped sneezing. "Let's try that again," she said firmly.
The silver queen wasted no time, pouncing on the gold one instead of bothering with her wand. Eventually Jez had to prise her queen off Nate's, since the little piece was giving its opposition such a hard beating.

Well, admittedly that was a little weird. Nate couldn't say he hadn't expected something like it to happen at one point, though. "Erm... My turn, I guess," he said, pondering what to do in his current predicament. He was in check, and at first glance the only think he could do was sacrifice his knight. As he was about to make this move, though, he noticed a large mistake Jez had made and took advantage of it. "Pawn, take her queen."

The tiny golden minion whipped out its wand eagerly and flicked it at the silver queen. "Descendo!" it yelled, watching as the queen sank through the tabletop, prying around as though in quicksand.

"Merlin's baggiest ..." muttered Jez, cursing herself for not looking where she was putting her piece. She had some consolation from taking the offending pawn, her own pawn finishing it with a quick Expelliarmus. Her pawn was taken, of course, but she didn't really mind. It had avenged her queen.
Within a few moves, she said, "Check!" again with a smirk. Her knight was facing off the king, and she'd carefully checked for pawns this time. She wasn't going to make another ignorant mistaken.

Nate peered over the chessboard as his king pulled out its wand and snapped it in half. "I think that's checkmate..." he said as Jez' knight cast a final "Stupefy!" to take his king out of commission. "Good game, Jez!" Nate said, reaching out to shake his opponent's hand through the disappearing table.

As the table vanished, the floor they were on rose up into a long, narrow platform. "I think I know what this means!" Nate said, whipping out his wand and posing theatrically.

Jez grinned at Nate, shaking his hand. "We should do this again sometime," she remarked. With real wizard chess pieces that do the bashing thing.

Jez laughed, adopting a similar pose. "Tsk. Another thing to beat you at," she teased, before twirling her wand, her cheerful expression replaced by one of concentration. "Ventus!" A gust of wind blew out of her wand, and again she felt the wonderful surge of power she experienced when using the Aqua Eructo charm. She felt like she was conquering nature or something.

A gust of wind blew out of her wand, and again she felt the wonderful surge of power she experienced when using the Aqua Eructo charm. She felt like she was conquering nature or something.
Nate did a dive-roll forward, underneath the gust of wind, and came to rest on one knee with his wand trained on Jez. "Anteoculatia!" he yelled, springing to his feet. The burst of light that came from the tip of his wand shot towards Jez, threatening to embue her with a nice, shiny set of antlers.

*Everything I Know I Learned* *Adding Silently To The Noise*

Vlimia looked around in awe, staring at the mounds of hidden junk. The few closest to her were; a crystal ball Spellotaped back together, three Muggle postcards, a quill charmed to write upside-down and a small couch that looked ordinary enough. Vlim walked quickly to a place softly pulsing with a green light. There she found a silver box. In that silver box, she found a Slytherin uniform and scarf. She also found a silver necklace. Perfect, they were just where her brother had said they would be. Closing the box, she vowed to save them for the end of the year, when her parents would pick her up from the station.

Dancing Through Life

Presley needed the room of requirement. But oddly this year it seemed more difficult to enter. But as a true Ravenclaw (no matter what her father said) she'd managed it. She stepped into the room that looked like an exact replica of her bedroom at Leo's house, and flopped down on her bed. The only thing that gave away the fake was that it contained all of the things she'd already taken to Hogwarts. That was the only reason she could tell that she wasn't in her brother's beautiful home in London. But...there! That's what she was looking for. The book she'd left. Presley gathered up "Great Expectations" in her arms, delightedly sitting right on the floor to continue reading. She wasn't entirely sure if she could take it from the room, so she decided not to risk it, but to just continue to visit the room until she'd finished the book.

You do that to me, buddy, and you die. Jez did the only thing she could think of and leant backwards into a 'bridge', both hands resting on the floor. She saw the light pass over her, but it didn't hit her. She pushed off with her feet and went into a handstand for a moment before coming down to standing. She mock curtsied, grinning. Show-off? Maybe.
"Fodio!" Jez couldn't remember what the spell did, but it was the first that came to mind, and her impulsive nature told her to use it.

Once he heard Jez start saying the incantation, Nate cast a Protego in front of him, which bought him time to measure his next move. Granted, Jez could cast Finite to take down his shield, but Nate thought quickly enough.

She just used a stinging hex, so she won't be showing any mercy. Why should I? he thought. He shot up, around his shield charm, and aimed at Jez's legs with a "Tarrantalegra!". He wasn't done, though. Immediately after that burst of light left his wand, he leveled with Jez's chest. "Entomorphis!"

Jez suddenly found herself with a few more legs than she was used to. She glared at Nate, her little bug feet dancing wildly. She scurried -well, fast danced - over to him, crawled up his shoe and bit him on the ankle. Ha. Jez leapt away from Nate just before she transformed back into herself, pointing her wand squarely at him. "Locomotor Wibbly!" She then pointed her wand at herself. "Finite!" The dancing stopped, thank Merlin.

The bite from Jez was irritating enough to distract Nate while she transfigured back into herself a few feet from him. This time, Nate wasn't fast enough to dodge or deflect her curse. He went down, and he fell hard. No wonder that's the jelly-legs curse. he thought, crawling back behind his shield. His legs were immobile, useless, and he could only think of one move. He had to end this duel. So, to come up with the signature combo of all signature combos, Nate rolled out from behind his shield charm and cast in quick succession two spells he could have used a long time before, but which would have drained the fun from the duel. "Expelliarmus! Stupefy!" Only once the two bolts of red light were flying at Jez did Nate cast Finite on his legs to get them back to working order. He stood up and walked over to where Jez lay sprawled, unsure as to whether he had actually hit her or if she was faking it.

Jez's wand flew out of her hand a split second before she was hit by Nate's powerful Stupefy. She collapsed immediately, blacking out for a few seconds. When she came to, she was looking up at Nate, and her head was throbbing from where she'd hit it on the floor. "You win," she admitted, sitting up and pressing her hand to her head, wincing. "That's going to leave a mark." Another duel, another scar ... heh, that could be a good motto. "Well done," she added, smiling. "The chess pieces have taught you well."
