She hadn't yet noticed her own reaction but along with the increased heartbeat, her breathing had quickened. Okay was he joking? Did they torture children here? Evie was now becoming terrified of the place. GREAT.


Okay....so they went from grins to some kind of internal panic attack in a relatively short amount of time.....

Was it something he said? Maddox might have dismissed it until the girl spoke of being burned and the man finally understood. "Burned? Heavens no. These are bluebell flames." He paused, realizing that if she didn't know they don't burn, she wouldn't know what bluebell flames were in the first place. That being the case, Maddox gestured to the one in his hand, tossing it from one hand to the next.

"See? Perfectly safe. It's a charm that does it. So long as you keep it off your clothes you should be fine." Was she absolutely sure she didn't want to have a go at one?


SPOILER!!: Lance and dat lyyyin' ghost

That is...


...until he was caught REDHANDED by the other professor.

Keep cool, Lance. Keep cool. Stop sweating.

"Oh, ummm uh... my cloak," he said, staring at the material in his hands before his gaze turned innocently back to the man, cheeks puffing out after a moment. The familiar burning along his neck and ears was beginning, but he was ignoring it. It was just warm in here, was all.

"Professor!" his voice boomed as he quickly glided his way over towards the two. "I do hope you won't find it an inconvenience if I took the young one aside and had a word with him?"

And it was very admirable that Sir Lancelot had not proceeded immediately to tell turns of the truth. Sir Nicholas puffed his chest out in pride.


Between the blushing boy and the babbling ghost, Maddox could smell a conspiracy, a possibly delicious one at that. Were he another person he might have been offended at not being let in immediately but the man simply couldn't muster enough care in the world for that sort of thing. It was neither here nor there for him and the Charms Professor had always made a brilliant devil's advocate.

"Your cloak, eh? I can see that." He said circling him once more for emphasis before coming to a stop by the ghost.

"I don't mind at all, in fact the fireplace looks a little empty." Such a good sport he was too as he plucked the cloak from the boy, holding it carefully because he WAS sure there was something in it but wasn't sure anyone else needed to know that yet. Maddox grinned a wide toothy grin, displaying his unusually large canines. "I'll take good care of this for you, lion's honour." Of which he had very little left....

Ahem.


SPOILER!!: Zaaander baby

.... Welp.

"Certain matters?" Zander was doing a horrible job of hiding the sudden nerves that just hit. Welp. He was also hoping that maybe Professor Quigley would give him a briefing on what to expect? Maybe? Knowing the guy... Probably not. He seemed like the type to play with his prey. Zander was the prey. Obviously. "Yes, sir. I'll be there." Did he want to see Puck too? Or was it just him?

How come they couldn't Professor Moxley to be the new Gryffindor House assistant? She loved him. Zander had made sure of that. There was no hope for Professor Q. That ship had sailed. A while ago apparently. Merlin.


"I didn't stutter, Adair." He said, taken a bit of his now acquired apple. Bless that house else. "Certain matters, certain matters that shouldn't need discussing but obviously do and so will be." Didn't get anymore cryptic than that but he wouldn't be giving anymore hints.

"Didn't I tell you to go enjoy the party? Why are you still stuck on this?"

Couldn't even follow instructions. Tsk tsk tsk.


SPOILER!!: Cinna

Aloha! It was a luau. Sandy sand, beach towels, tiki's and FIRE! The sky, THE SKY WAS ON THE CEILING! KInd of like it was in the great hall. Flamsteed was jiggling fire balls. Cool! She wanted to try that."Good job there Flamsteed." And there was Maddox too. "Hey, Professor Maddox. Nice job on decorating." She was speaking to both of them.


He was starting to think the students spent too much time with Airey, now they were even calling him by his first name. If the man could be bothered he might have said something but as it was, this was the first night back, a party of all things and he just...didn't think it was that serious.

"Thank you, Miss Bayless. Just trying to relish the last bit of summer before it's fully gone." Which it would be tomorrow when he was back to teaching and they were back to learning. It was actually a little sad to be honest.


SPOILER!!: Zeke XD

Eyebrows raised slightly, Zeke listened with great interest.

Was this legit?

Was Quigley admitting to ... murder? foul play? or was that initial CUTTING OF THE ROPE PLANS THING just a metaphor? Metaphor? Meh. The poor caretaker though... that would suck. What was his name? Mr. Fin? Flan?

"That's a shame, he looked like a nice guy..." from the distance that he saw him from - which was a rarity in itself. And it really was a shame they'd not be bungeeing either.

OOOHHHHH! WAS HE A GHOST NOW?!


"Oh he was, he really was. It shouldn't have happened--as is the case with all tragedies. We should have known something was wrong from the way he screamed but Airey simply assumed the man was as put off by heights as some people can get." It didn't take too much figuring to know Zeke had bought into the story. Now it was only a matter of seeing how far the story would spread. That was always the fun part.

"I shouldn't be saying this to you but I feel you're a trustworthy boy; this beach theme is almost like a cover up. To avoid suspicion if you will and I think we've done a good job so far."

Maddox vanished the core of the apple he'd been eating and plucked another from the barrel. "So for now we crave your indulgence while we move against bungees for just a little while longer." Crunch.
