Hogwarts RPG Name: Michael Alexander DeLarge (a.k.a. Mick) Fifth Year | SPOILER!!: Ethan Quote:

Ethan managed the Let's gather 'round the campfire to sing our 'Campfire Song'! OUR C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E-S-O-N-G SONG! quite well.. yes, he was quite proud of his spelling skills.. and he hummed along to the rest being unsure of the words. Maybe he'd get it on the next go. He chuckled lightly at the end.. it was a kind of fun and silly song but it seemed to lighten the mood a bit.. and that was exactly what they needed. Especially to put the younger ones at ease. "Do you know any more?" he asked Mick. Or maybe they could just sing that one again..
He smiled warmly at Eliza as she came to sit by him. The boy felt compelled to look out for the younger girl and figured if she sat near him, she might feel a little less distressed about the situation. Not that he was very confident about it himself.. but he thought he hid it well. Ethan thought for a moment about her question. He really had no idea what was going on and the thought that this was just the latest string in a series of bizarre occurrences was rather unsettling. Still, he didn't want the younger kids any more worried than they were. "I'm sure it's just like the prefect said.. The castle is playing some sort of joke on us." And he wouldn't be surprised given the odd sort of things he had seen happen the past few months.. but he had a funny feeling that wasn't it.
He glanced around the area looking for any of the Claws he knew somewhat well - Cora, Elliot, Taylor. No sign of any of them.. he figured they weren't in the common room when it happened. He turned back to Eliza and gave her a reassuring smile. "Once Professor V gets here, I'm sure he'll sort everything out." Yes, adults usually had the answers. Mick stopped singing after repeating the spelling part 2 times, because that's all there was to the song and people looked like they weren't in the mood for a song. He didn't know any other camping songs anyway He liked how Ethan went along with it, so it wasn't like he was the only goofball singing a song originally sung by a talking sponge named Bob.
He sat there, cross-legged, staring at the fire. His mind went to other places. He thought about his mother and father, considered writing to the both of them when the madness is over. He thought about the question the younger girl, sitting next to Ethan, asked. "This is weird, even for Hogwarts," he whispered to himself. "What is going on?" He assured himself that everything was going to be okay, hoping to be back in his bed very soon. SPOILER!!: Elise Quote:

OUCH. That hurt. And totally woke her up. Muttering under her breath, she hugged her pillow closer and shuffled towards Spike. "What's going on?" she asked, yawning. The castle seemed to be really mean to her this term. And the train.
Her arm hurt too. Mick turned his attention to the girl in pjs that had asked the same question that's been going around. Eh, it's a running gag, he had thought privately. She looked more confused than the others, maybe she was asleep when it happened. "Are you all right, little missy?" he asked kindly. "Would you like to sit down?"
