Default The Gaming Corner

The Gaming Corner

Thank you to Pixie for the graphics.

Located a little to the left of the Bowling Lanes is a gaming corner, combining both magical and Muggle games to create a fun alternative to bowling. All games only work in exchange for money which you have to put directly into the respective slot on the object you're playing the game on. The standard price for all games are 4 Sickles.

Among smaller games like Darts you can find a number of Pool Tables as well as several sets of Table Football. Similar to this is the enchanted Table Quidditch where you and your friends have to play all positions on your team, trying to keep control of the enchanted balls zooming around the miniature Quidditch pitch.

Reminder: Do NOT wear your bowling shoes here.

OOC: This is a self-sustaining area meaning you don't need anybody's permission to come here and play. However, that doesn't mean the shopkeeper isn't watching so do NOT break any site rules. Also, as always, do NOT RP for the shopkeeper (Felixir)

The eye rolling didn't phase him one bit. Frankie, being the Aries that he was, always knew that he did things to deserve being the recipient of those rolling eyes, whether it was all in play or not. He knew deep down that Hady was crazy for him, considering only certain type of person could put up with him. And awwwwwwwwwww. She was going to get everything that he had mentioned. So sweet. For a moment, he had almost decided to go get the food for them all himself, but fatherly duties called him.

Once the little girl was swooped up into his arms, the blond carefully placed her on his shoulders and started making his way toward the machine that she was so entranced by. A claw machine? Was that a hint that she wanted one of the plushies inside?

"Which one do you want, princess?" he asked Nova, reaching into his pocket for some sickles.

Hadleigh enjoyed being able to still joke around and tease Frankie whenever possible. It had always been that way between them since day one. Even their first true meeting in Hogwarts they had joked about it. When she had turned around and they slammed into one another in the corridor and she landed on her bum. At the time it had been super embarrassing but now it was laughable.

At the food counter she ordered all that was mentioned by her husband, which he would be sharing with her of course. Something for their daughter since the fries would be way to hot for the little girl and something for herself as well.


Up on her daddy's shoulders she could see EVERYTHING! Nova giggled. Right away she face pressed up to the glass of the machine and she laid her hands on it peering inside. "Pretty pretty! Flutter!" She wanted that butterfly plushie with the bright colorful sparkly wings that matched the pair she had at home!

"Why am I not surprised?" he asked with a grin after Nova had exclaimed 'flutter.' He should have known. Of course the little girl obsessed with butterflies would want a butterfly plushie.

In the sickles went with a clink, clink, clink, clink. Soon enough the machine started to make a series of whizzing noises, meant to be a distraction from the numbers that were counting down. But the blond was focused, even with all the noises and there being a tiny human on his shoulders. He had been trained very well to stay focused and alert.

Plus Frankie was just awesome at winning stuff from claw machines. It was a worthy talent of his.

The claw soon moved, almost hovering over the butterfly plush. With a minor movement to the left and the pressing of a button, down the claw went. It latched itself onto the toy, lifted it, and dropped it into the hole.

"Tada!" he said, bending over slightly and reaching into the retrieval box. Seconds later the butterfly plush was in his hand. Best dad ever, right?

Nova Leigh pressed her hands against the smooth glass of the machine, her bright blue eyes trained on the butterfly plushie. The only thing making her look away from it was the funny clinking sound the coins made that her daddy had put into the machine.

The small toddler giggled at all the different sounds. "Wook it dat!" She pointed in surprise at the claw that began to move towards the plush. It was big, shiny and nosy! It was almost scary but it had hold of her butterfly in it's big huge claws and it was carrying it towards a hole!

For a second she almost cried her lip wibbling when the butterfly plush dropping into the retrieval box out of her sight. Only then daddy saved the plush! Nova squealed in pure delight her eyes lighting up in excitement. "Flutter!" she exclaimed reaching out with both hands for it.


With two trays worth of food and drinks, Hady first chose to select an empty table to set it all down at. Turning around on the spot she spotted her husband and daughter right away. Who could miss that blonde hair of his and light brown locks of the little girls.

Waving her hand at them she beckoned Frankie over so they could eat.

A big ol' grin was on his face. The little girl's reaction to the machine was priceless, and her exclamation once the butterfly was pulled out of the machine was one for the pensieve.

"Here you go, princess," Frankie said, holding the plush up near his head for Nova to grab.

In his peripheral, he saw someone waving at them. With a slight turn of his head, he took in the sight of Hady carrying two trays. His eyes then honed in on the trays, which had drinks and a pile of food on them. He didn't need to be told to move over there. The motion and the promise of food was enough.

"Let's pause from the games for a little bit and eat," he told the little girl, not that she really had much of a say in the matter. She had a toy butterfly to keep her preoccupied, and there was nothing that was going to keep filling his stomach with food.

The smile on little Nova's face was bright enough to match her fathers as she took the butterfly plushie into her arms, clutching it to her chest. "Hi, Flutter!" She giggled hugging it tightly with one arm so she could remain holding onto Frankie with her other hand. "Tank you, daddy!"

Nova was more than content to got sit and eat for awhile now that she had her new plushie to keep her company. Upon reaching the table where Hady was, Nova held out the butterfly plush making it flap it's wings. "Mummy, wook it what daddy gots me! Flutter flutter!" she exclaimed loudly with the brightly smile on her young face.



Hady smiled watching her husband and daughter make their way over, her smile turning to laughter. "Wow, I see it. Flutter is very pretty. Let's get you down so you can eat now, hm?" Reaching for Nova she helped the toddler off her fathers shoulder and set her down on one of the benches with her toy.

"I think you just made father of the year in her eyes," she laughed kissing him lightly on the cheek. "Let's sit down and have some dinner." Hady took her seat beside Nova in order to help her if she needed it.

"Come onnnnnnnn, Daddy. We'll bowl SOON. I want to play GAMES FIRST." Come on, come on, come on. It wasn't like he had a choice, honestly. Jorgie had a tight hold on his hand (as she always did) and was tugging him instantly in that direction when they entered the bowling alley. QUAD-D (daddy daughter date day) meant that she was in charge of what happened and today it was BOWLING and lunch day. And serious talk about her getting a pony for Christmas that he had to look after when she was at school. Because she WAS still going. No matter what her Mum thought. Jorgie Stemp was GOING to Hogwarts because everyone else had gotten to go and it wasn't FAIR.

"Can we play them all? You have to let me win. Remember the RULES." Duh duh duh duh duh.

"Did you know that I'm going to be better than you at all of them?" So. Growed. UP.

"Okay, okay, Jorgie! Games first!"

Like it had taken much convincing: if people thought Lorelai Stemp had Adam wrapped around her finger, they'd yet to meet their youngest daughter. Jorgie Munroe was daddy's little princess and he would have done anything for her, including being dragged across the bowling alley, her little hand clasped tight in his.

And losing games. "I have never won at anything ever. Not against you, Porgie. And you know I never let you win, you're just better than me!" Indulgence much? He really was going to miss her terribly come September, and after everything that had happened the previous term he wasn't sure he wanted her to go. But Jorgie did, and he knew that she had Lilah there looking out for her, so he relented. Anything to make her happy.

Apart from a pony, of course.

"What game first?"

"What game first?"
"I knowwwwww you let me win, Daddy. I seeeeen you play the same stuff with the BOYS and beat them." Especially at goal shoot outs! Daddy always scored against the boys, but he always missed the goal net by a MILE when she was in goal. And he saved all of the boys balls, but every single one of hers went in. Which was why her Daddy was the BEST. BEST BEST BEST. Jorgie loved him sooooooooooooo much. She gave her old man a squeezy hug from the side. "I won't tell them that you love me mostest." Everyone knew already, but she wouldn't brAG about it. Much.

Stemp favourite right here!

"Um. Um. Ummmmmmmmmm..." This was going to be a difficult decision. What did she really want to play and win at? Jorgie took her hand away from Daddy's and tapped her thinking finger on her face. Tap tap think think. Tap tap. Thinky thinky.

"You choose! What do you want to lose at?"

Patrick had skirted away from his parents for a bit in order to get some gaming done at the Bowling Alley. He didn't often want to go out and do odd things but today he did. He Really wanted to bowl a round, but it didn't look like any of his friends were there. He wondered if a few of them might roll through the door so he could go bowling.

He wandered through the games looking at all of the other kids playing the games wondering if he should even be there. He finally found table football which sounded like a fun time for the current time being to see if he could find a few friends shortly. He loved table football and could easily entertain himself that way.

"You choose! What do you want to lose at?"
She didn't miss a trick, his little girl - far too clever for anyone's good, to go along with her absolute heart of gold. Was it any wonder the others always had to bring up her being his favourite? As much as Adam denied it, the whole family knew it was true. "Porgie, that's because you're better than all of the boys," he managed, even though he knew she would see right through that as well. It was all part of the little act of indulgence.

He chuckled at her offer to keep it a secret, but he also knew that she would be telling everyone about it for the rest of the summer, at least. Until she went away to school.

What was he going to do?! "I want letters every day when you go to Hogwarts, okay?"

Now, for the game choice. He 'ummed' and 'ahhed' about it for a moment, looking around at all of the options, before turning back to his little girl. "How about Table Quidditch?"

Better than the boys? Awwwwwwwwwwww!!! Jorgie grabbed at Daddy to pull him down close enough so she could kiss his cheek. "I'm better than the girls TOO." Just so he knew and ever thought that one of her sisters was as CUTE as she was or as WONDERFUL as she was. Friendly reminders coming from your favourite child was VERY clearly the best part of Adam Stemp's life.

Letters? Writing? Every day? "Only if you make my pocket money go up by fifty thousand percent!" She was so crafty. Such a bargain hunter. Give her more money, c'mooooon. She'd probably just add her name to the letter that one of her siblings sent home. That could be their responsibility whilst she was being cute and exploring the castle that was going to be so new to her.

"OK. I'm going to beat you!"

Anna came almost flying through the door. Not literally, because she had left her broom at home, but she did come in rather fast. Too fast, maybe.

She had heard they had little Quidditch table games at that arcade... thing, so she wanted to check it out. Sounded pretty fun!

The Gryffindor looked around trying to spot the game, but she ended up spotting her VERY tall friend first. Of course she did. It was hard to miss Patrick standing there, with all of that HEIGHT.

The rising fourth year chuckled and made a beeline towards her friend, stopping right behind him. "HEY!" She greeted loudly, hoping to make him jump a LITTLE. Just a little.

Heehee.

Getting pulled down to Jorgie's level was a bit of a stretch for the tall man, and in a few years his knees would probably start creaking - and by a few years, he hoped more than ten. "Better than everyone," Adam said with a grin, kissing the top of his daughters head and then ruffling her hair as he stood back up.

"I can make it go up by..." He paused for a dramatically long time, looking up into the distance as if he was doing some calculations in his head (which, obviously he wasn't, because anyone and everyone, including his youngest daughter, knew he was absolutely useless at numbers). "Nothing, but I'll think about getting you a pony for Christmas?"

Obviously he was desperate to get his daughter to write letters everyday, because there was NO. WAY. Adam was ever buying her a pony.

He chuckled a little as they reached the table. "Yes, you are. Which team do you want to be?"

Jorgie STARED up at her Daddy and let her bottom lip wibble and her eyes fill with water and she started to CRY very, very, very loudly. Her little fists balled up and she sat herself down on the floor and wAILED.

"I wannnnnntttt mOOOre, Dadddddyyyyyyyyyy"

Oh.

Dear.

Merlin's.

Beard.

.............................. His eleven year old was having a tantrum. A full on crying-fest in the middle of the gaming area. With a heavy sigh, Adam knelt down next to the little blonde and stroked her hair, making (what he thought were) comforting shushing noises. "Now, now, Jorgie. No need for tears. You get plenty of pocket money as it is," he said, a tone of desperation to his voice.

SHE WAS ACTUALLY CRYING REAL ACTUAL TEARS.

And he was lost, as he always was when she cried. Adam felt as though his heart was breaking and if she was this upset over a pocket money adjustment (or lack thereof) then maybe... "Jorgie, if you're this emotional, behaving like this... Maybe it's best if you don't go to Hogwarts. You just don't seem grown up enough."

Was he going to have to pick his eleven year old up?
