Hogwarts RPG Name: Sydney M. L. Masters Slytherin Sixth Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Maddox B. Buchanan Gryffindor Seventh Year | Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ ❄ Showtunes > Everything ❄ ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll Gaston was done with this competition and had been for a while. The events of the third challenge hadn't been forgotten or forgiven, and frankly he didn't want to know what kind of torture this challenge had in store for the students. The only reason he was here at all was for Levi and Brent. He didn't want the boys to think he didn't care about them, and if this challenged was anything like the last one, they would need all the emotional support they could get! He was here, but he would not be participating in the revelry.
Just like at the pep rally, he wore a black outfit that showed no outward sign of support for any particular competitor. If anyone asked, the wardrobe choice was because he didn't want to show bias, but it was really a subtle act of defiance against this barbaric competition.
He weaved through the crowd, greeting the people he saw as he went.
He spotted Miss Spinnet with one of the Ilvermorny girls (Louise) and,
sensing danger, kept a watchful eye on the pair for a moment. Good, it looked like this girl was being nice so far... unlike that other Ilvermorny champion. "Hello, Miss Spinnet, Miss Hamilton," he greeted them. The other Ilvermorny champions who showed up (Lachlan, Jesus, Irene, and Aurora) also received hellos from the professor, as did Miss Carden, Miss McNally, Miss Botros, and Miss Valentine.
Gaston wasn't sure whether to laugh or scoff when he saw Miss Summer's red and yellow striped hair, but the display of support got a slight smile from him. "Hello, Miss Summers," he said. "Nice hair." And Miss Burton was there too! She received a smile as well. "Hello, Miss Burton."
"Hello, Headmistresses," Gaston greeted the two heads of their respective schools as he joined his colleagues, giving each one a polite nod in acknowledgement. "Roderik, Kalen..." The DADA professor's outfit got a double take. That was certainly an interesting color combination... He took a seat, balancing a coffee in one hand and a bag of popcorn in the other... though he doubted he'd be eating much. He was too worried! He kept his eyes glued to the screens. Stay safe, boys! he thought. THIS WAS IT!!! The final challenge was here at last,
and Emma was practically bouncing off the walls with excitement. Instead of the thinderbird shirt she'd been wearing, today she was wore her school's colors, and she still had the blue and cranberry pom poms she'd made to match. A part of her still wished it was Louise or Jesus or both competing today, but she was going to support her school no matter what! And speaking of which...
She saw her housemates with the other Ilvermorny champions and waved to the group. "Hey, guys!" she greeted them. Was she allowed to join them? She was a little shy around the older students, especially the champions. She waved hello to the other people as her eyes scanned the crowd. Hi, Headmistresses! Hi, professors! Hi, Hogwarts people! Now where were her friends?
She spotted a familiar face and went to join the nice Hogwarts girl from the paintball game (Kitty). "Hi, Kitty!" she said with a friendly smile. "Can I join you?"
