| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ He watched the woman frowning at her fist and bit back a laugh; apparently she had been hitting things wrong. At least now if she ever had to hit something (hopefully not someone), she wouldn't hurt herself?
Good prefect, he was. Teaching women how to punch things properly.
"Nice to meet you, Celestina." That was... an interesting name. Her parents liked stars, he guessed. Or... they had randomly picked it. Either way. "You're... an alumni, right?"
Heh. Apologising for the spit again. He shrugged it off. "It's not the worst thing I've been hit with this year, it's no big deal."
She wasn't throwing some random creature's dung at him like the potions professor had done to them. A small amount of spit was far superior to that.
Nice to know that she wasn't frustrated about him, though. Heh.
"What are you frustrated about?" Wait. Manners. "If you don't mind my asking."
Surely it wasn't heights, because she was still standing on the bench. |

But he wasn't rational at the moment. He wanted to go over and yell. He wanted... he wanted to do anything... but he was rooted to the spot.
Finally he looked over to Mina. "I'm sorry." he said apologizing again. "I've just errr... just can't be here." he stammered. "You did a great job decorating and you look lovely." he said before heading in the direction opposite of where Evan and Marie were. He needed a minute to calm down before he did something stupid. Quote:

Tearing her eyes away from her dress and back to Evan and Marie, she got that feeling in the pit of her stomach again. It was like she was going through everything from the summer again but she wasn't as fully removed from it. It wasn't like she was watching it from afar and no one knew she was seeing it. It was right in her face and they would know that she saw it. It wasn't like a secret, no it was out there for her and everyone to see.
Looking back to Carter, she tilted her head. He was just going to leave her there? He spilt his punch on her and all he could saw was sorry. What in the world was happening tonight. It really had started perfectly. She was at a ball on the arm of an handsome boy who thought she was rather pretty, or so he told her and now she was standing alone as her date is with his ex and her bestie has left her once again.
She hardly even registered the words Carter had even said to her as she balled her fists slightly and took a breath. She knew she should have just not come to the ball at all, but no, she had to come and try to have a good time with someone she considered a friend and that she could have liked. Apparently, nothing ever went as planned for her and all that stuff from her divination readings were just lies.
Picking up her cup, she made her way over. If Carter wasn't about to get to the bottom of this, she sure was. Seriously, she had enough of it and was almost at her wits end. Reaching the couple, she managed to place her free hand on Evan's chest and push in back slightly. She only hoped that would knock them both into reality.
Looking over her shoulder, she shook her head. She needed to tell Marie to go look for her boyfriend, but she was having a hard time sonsidering Marie wasn't one of her favourite people at the moment. But Carter probably needed Marie more than her at the moment, which still hurt a lot. Taking a deep breathe, she calmly as she could addressed the Slytherin. "You probably should go find Carter.....right now."
Mina needed to talk to Evan and it was probably best it was just the two of them. Marie was still standing there in shock waiting to hear Evan's explanation when suddenly he was pushed away from her. Snapping out of it and looking up she seen Mina standing there. Oh great, this was just the thing she wanted to avoid, a confrontation with Mina. How could her perfect night turn out like this?
Wait...
What did she mean she should go find Carter? She knew where he was. He was getting drinks to bring out...
NO!
Please say he didn't just see what happened! Looking around she seen Carter walking... in the other direction. Feeling like a Hippogriff was standing on her chest she turned back to Mina and Evan. "I..I've got to go." she said as she took off after Carter.
Running to catch him she started to trip from her heals getting stuck in the ground. Kicking off her shoes she left them wherever they landed. She would come back later to get them... or not. Finally catching up to him she reached out and grabbed his arm. "Carter, please, don't go. It's NOT what you think." Not that she knew what he was thinking, she just knew it couldn't be good if he was willing to walk away without talking to her.

In her process of climbing down, Celestina might have done some flailing and some wobbling but soon enough she was back on the ground--now shorter than this Raiden boy.
"You can ask," she said quickly, with big eyes. "But it's a lot of things. A huge long list of 'em. Most of them not nice things about dairy." And other subjects. |

She gave a shiver and scooted a little closer to Sabel. "Would it be terrible for me to ask for your cloak... jacket... whatever. I don't think my skill with the warming charm is as good as it used to be. No practice, ya know," she said shyly. Sabel smelled really nice tonight. Should he remind her of why she had stormed off? Probably not. With a sigh he decided it was best just to let things go. "Sure. Good plan."
Then she was scooting closer and asking for his jacket. With a small nod, he shifted a little so he could take his coat off and wrapped it gently about her shoulders. "Should have brought a cardigan or something...always be prepared, as my mother would say." He muttered, moving his hands back into his lap. Then again, the weather wasn't quite so spontaneous here as it was back in Canada.

Instead she sighed and slid her arms through the sleeves of his jacket and sniffed it, hoping he didn't see that. Heehee.
" To be honest I didn't expect to stay long at the Ball... I expected to make an appearance, freak out and go hide in the common room, but I succeeded in not doing that. As you can see," she said with a smile. She idly wondered why Sabel was so... awkward. Funy boy, he was.
Very slowly so he could see her movements, not wanting to scare him away like a frightened bunny or something, she reached over and lay her hand on top of his and gave it a little squeeze.... But left it there. How would he react? She didn't know, but she sure hoped he'd hold her hand and not shake her off and run away. Silly boys.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ "When did you graduate?" Ahhh, she was wobbling. Raiden held up a hand hesitantly, ready to grab her if she suddenly pitched herself over because of her shoes of death, but she managed to make it down without falling or kicking anyone or spitting in peoples faces again. Good job, Celestina! "I don't think many people would like being that much taller than me. Doorways aren't high enough in normal buildings for that."
She reminded him a bit of Daphne, just then. A big long list of things that bothered her. He was sure Daphne's wouldn't be mostly about dairy though. Dirt, maybe. The decline of Gryffindor. Younger boys who couldn't keep their hands off her hair. People who had no sense of hygiene or personal space.
...uhm.
What had he been thinking about before he'd started listing off Daphne's pet peeves?
"Are you allergic to dairy stuff? I thought one of my friends was, for a bit..." He'd been wrong, though. Not allergic to it. Nope. "If I were allergic to it, I think I'd be frustrated by it too." |

Good, Evan wasn't in his view. "What do you think I think?" he asked her trying his hardest to keep his voice even.

A small smile touched his lips at her admittance, and he gave her hand a small squeeze of reassurance in return. "I'm glad you didn't. Freak out or leave...or a combination. It's good, to see you smiling again." It was good to see everyone starting to smile again.

Payton J. McNiven | Ameh!Raiden Ama!Nabs IS NAMED MINHO & Is SO Black Panther Right Now Why were people so tall? Was there a purpose to it? Did it make them feel better to tower over the less fortunate? For a brief moment, Celestina pouted at her thoughts until conversation distracted her.
"2065," she answered in a soft voice. "You're not going to run away now because you know I'm really old, are you?" Bucky wouldn't blame him though. She tended to run away from very old people too. Mostly because they tended to pinch her bones and make comments about her dietary habits and ask her when she was going to get married.
And have children. Shudder.
"Yeah, lactose intolerant," informed the red-head simply. "If I ever so much have anything with dairy in it, I get the worst cramps ever! And I start..." Tooting. She was not going to bring that up.
Yet.
"It's...um...a gas issue. Whatever. You know what annoys me too? Women! And men!" That pretty much summed up the world's population.
Old people. Women. Men. And Dairy. Don't forget the children. |

OMG... she felt like fainting or something stupid that girls did when they acted stupid around guys. But she totally wouldn't... she wasn't that kind of girl, nope.
Smiling wider still she said, " I'm glad I didn't either. I am really glad." Looking out over the enchanted pond she giggled and unholstered her wand... yeah the holster wasn't exactly fashion forward, but she never went anywhere without it anymore... and nonverbally cast Papillio causing cute little red and gold butterflies to go off into the scenery. " There, now it looks beautiful out here for sure."

It had been a constant source of smiles, laughter and comfort last year, and now, all rolled together, it was beauty. It suited. "Wonder if the butterflies will remain when the enchantment is gone..." Because, those would be some long lasting butterflies, and having a few fluttering about the Great Hall early in the morning would be a nice way to wake up fully before class.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ 2065... so Raiden had been like nine when she'd graduated? Right? Ish? Close?
"You're not old," he said flatly, looking down at her and tilting his head. She definitely didn't look old, and she didn't act old, what with her benchcapades. She wasn't old. "My grandparents are old. You're just older than me."
He could not remember the last time he'd ran away from someone. Had he ever? He'd... excused himself from conversations. But that was usually for different reasons.
Ah-ha. Lactose intolerant. And... gas. Poor Celestina the Bench Woman. That really had to suck.
"I'm allergic to pumpkin," he said, as if this were the appropriate answer to her allergy. "When I eat it, or drink it, it makes me throw up. A lot."
Totally a normal discussion to be having with someone you'd just met. Then again, she'd been standing on a bench spitting on his face, so... normal. Normal could go right out the window, down seven stories, and into the sea.
Errrr.
"I'm... seventeen. Do I count in any of the categories that annoy you?" Because by society standards, he qualified as a man, because he was of-age, but he was also still considered young, and a child, by a lot of the same people. Depended on what he was doing at the time, really. |

Watching her creations flutter around she smiled and leaned into Sabel and placed her head on his shoulder. " I think they will. At least I hope so. Little Gryffindor butterflies fluttering about would sure brighten my day a bit, you know," she said happily.
She kind of felt like she was stealing a day from someone else's life just then... it was odd. To be happy and feel like this was not something she had enjoyed in a LONG time it seemed. " Sabel, are you happy it's me you're here with? Or would you rather I let you go back in?" she asked quietly, hoping he'd say he'd rather stay with her.

If I needed or wanted to go somewhere else I would let you know."

Payton J. McNiven | Ama!Nabs IS NAMED MINHO & Is SO Black Panther Right Now Older than...him. Celestina was even older than her date. She was older than people GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING CHILDREN. WHERE WAS HER LIFE GOING?! Making a little frustrated sounded, she sucked up her bottom lip and just kept it there while Raiden talked about his allergy.
She was sort of listening but mostly she was distracted by her SELF-PITY and some random butterflies that came out of nowhere. From where she stood, Bucky gave them the evil eye. Yes, evil eye--while her bottom lip was still in her mouth.
"I'd say you're right in between," declared Celestina, digging her shoe into the ground. "You're safe from my spit...er, well...you know what I mean. Unless you start getting confusing and contradict yourself. Then you'll be getting some more spit." |

Suddenly she was on her feet and as she looked down at Sabel she pouted a little. " Oh bloody hell, what's the point?" she asked more to herself than to him. " Well, don't let me stop your wandering, Sabel," she said in a hurt tone and turned to march off.
Of course her storming off in high heels was a TERRIBLE idea considering how much she fell down on a typical day. Yep... down she went. Hitting the ground beside the bench she busted her knee and cut her hand trying to break her fall. Muttering under her breath she attempted to get up before Sabel the Savior could come to help her.
He just didn't get it... she really really liked him and he was blinkin CLUELESS and it HURT.

Good, Evan wasn't in his view. "What do you think I think?" he asked her trying his hardest to keep his voice even. Noticing the clenched fists and the look of anger on his face Marie knew whatever he was thinking was NOT good. She had a strong feeling that he had seen her standing there with Evan... holding her hand. "I... dont know what you are thinking," that's only because she didn't know what exactly he had seen. Then again, she didn't do anything for him to be mad at her about. She shoudn't have to defend herself here. If he should be mad ay anyone it should be Evan.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ Well. He'd made her... mad? Upset? She was doing that 'suck my lip into my mouth and destroy it accordingly' thing. The prefect bit the corner of his own lip and tried to not stare at her as he wondered exactly what it had been that had set her off.
He probably shouldn't have told her she was older. But really, it was obvious that she was older than him! And older didn't mean old...
Why were there butterflies out now?
"So I won't make you spit, I'll just get in the way of it," he said with a wry smile, tucking his hands into his pockets. She wasn't on the bench anymore, so he didn't have to worry about her falling off it or anything like that, right? "Only liars contradict themselves, Miss Celestina. I don't lie. Least not to most people. I lie to my Head of House, but that's for a good reason."
He'd rather not have ended up in detention again, after all.
"Did you like going to Hogwarts?" She'd been here... before he had been. Had there been many different professors? Had there always been psychotic people trying to break into the school? Surely it had been quiet at some point, right? |

This happened last time. For some reason, you take what I say as an insult against you, when it is not intended in that way what-so-ever."
Kneeling in front of her, he pressed his sleeve against her cut knee. "I don't get it Alexa. You can say whatever you like, storm off however you like, and it's okay. I say one little thing, that is not meant as an insult to you, that I was just wandering and am having a good time talking and spending time with you, and you flip out." He kept his voice calm and level, not letting agitation or any anger lace it.

Kneeling in front of her, he pressed his sleeve against her cut knee. "I don't get it Alexa. You can say whatever you like, storm off however you like, and it's okay. I say one little thing, that is not meant as an insult to you, that I was just wandering and am having a good time talking and spending time with you, and you flip out." He kept his voice calm and level, not letting agitation or any anger lace it. Lexi didn't struggle with him as he helped her to the bench and pressed his sleeve to her knee but she did however cross her arms across her chest and sull up. She didn't know what to tell him... The truth? Nah that was not a good idea... or was it?
" Don't you get it, Sabel? I LIKE you. Why do you think I kissed you however many times I did... why do you think you are the only person besides my brother that I even try to be around. YOu are so utterly clueless about it that it makes me angry," she finally said in a low mutter. She could feel the heat in her cheeks and she refused to look at him because she was afraid he would see the tears that had sprung up in her eyes... they were not because of the fall either.
She held her breath and waited... he would probably mutter and ramble or run away... she was mentally preparing herself for the inevitable. She was about to ruin their friendship... she could feel it. He probably thought she was a nutter like everyone else. Oh Merlin... she felt like she was going to be sick.

Payton J. McNiven | For Raiden. Who Isn't Bleeding. Ama!Nabs IS NAMED MINHO & Is SO Black Panther Right Now Celestina grumbled under her breath as she walked back towards the bench. This time, to keep Raiden from looking at her like she was going to break her neck, she sat on the bench. Then, proceeded to take off her shoes.
"Miss Celestina," she repeated making a face in the process. "Please don't call me that. It brings unpleasant memories!"
Shoes off, Bucky kicked back and tried to relax; tried. "Did I like it? It was better than home, I'll tell you that much. Having to fend off three brothers off your plate of sausages every morning makes you wanna stuff their nostrils with mashed while they're sleeping."
She hadn't noticed how painful her feet were until she took them off. Now Celestina's toes sort of throbbed. Afraid for their well being, she started wiggling them.
"Hogwarts was alright, if you ignore the crazy staff shoving their heads into the lake, students stalking each other or trying to cut off their own fingers, common rooms being mysteriously destroyed, curtains going up in flames, your pets disappearing or showing up DEAD, and you know, there's always the risk that Voldemortist can show up and SPOOK YA."
Yeah. Good times. |

She was about to ruin their friendship... she could feel it. He probably thought she was a nutter like everyone else. Oh Merlin... she felt like she was going to be sick. For a long moment he stared at the cuts on her knee, listening to her words, letting them process. It was something he wasn't used to hearing, that he wasn't used to noticing. His friends were just...his friends...it was the way his mind worked. There were very few he liked the way Alexa was suggesting. Last year, he had developed that rare liking for her but....he adjusted his sleeve to a clean section of cloth. A lot had happened between then and now.
Gently, he pressed the fabric back to her knee to stop the bleeding, for once taking his time with his words and care with his tone. "I...am honored Alexa...that...is a huge compliment. I...apologize for my platonic eyesight, but it's just the way I am." He let out a slow breath, gradually letting his eyes trail up to look at her face, a face on the brink of breaking down. "Alexa, I cannot be anything but completely honest when I speak, please understand that. I love you, as a friend, as a person, as another soul. I do. I would not be around if I didn't. In a relationship way, if that is what you are suggesting, in all honesty Alexa, I don't believe I am ready for that...I...know you, but at the same time, I don't think we know each other as well as we could. Please understand, I do care for you, very deeply, and I do not say these things to hurt you." He didn't even know if that would make sense to her.

| ♥Dunkin | Pixie's Precious Pea | kpop goddess | sneaky sounder | forever slytherin♥ SEE? Raiden knew that girls wearing those shoes was a bad idea. He watched her stretching and wiggling toes with a feeling of vindication. He'd been talking to Nia about how terribly painful they looked, and it seemed as if he was right. Heh.
"Did... oh. Sorry. It's a habit." He hadn't even realised he'd called her 'Miss'. He did realise, however, that with her sitting on the bench, he kinda towered even more. It was a weird unbalance, so he sat down next to her. And continued watching her toes.
Brothers? Three of them? Cela had three brothers, didn't she. Raiden only had one... whom he hadn't seen in years. He kinda wondered what it was like, to have present siblings.
Wait. What?
"It's never quiet here, is it then," he murmured, a slightly incredulous look on his face. "It's a hazard to everyone's health... we just had professors getting mentally de-aged, kids sliding down staircases on glisseo'd cushions, mer-people invading, werewolves, mysterious deaths, unpleasant professors with gas problems, and a psycho who attacked the school to get at a professor, which... resulted in rather painful injuries. Oh, and my Head of House likes to light students on fire in class."
Yup. It really was a Hogwarts thing, psychotic happenings.
"My cat's still alive though, luckily." |

| Atypical Ravenclaw Bookworm // Hair Flipper Pro / / the edgy starbuckian // Hot Messie Mina barely recognized the fact that Marie had left. She figured that the Slytherin would run after Carter. She knew if it was her, she would have too, but it was clear to her now that her role in Carter's life wasn't that. She had run after him enough for one lifetime. She had allowed herself to feel things she shouldn't have for her friend. No, she was through with that now.
Standing before Evan, she looked up at him and shook her head. Seriously, what was he thinking. Better yet, what was she thinking even allowing herself to think this was even a good idea to come with him. Yes, they were friends and they did have fun and all, but a small part of her figured he still had feelings for Marie. All the guys around her always seemed to have feelings for the Slytherin girls. It was just her luck.
Setting her cup down on the near bench, she tilted her head and looked right at him. Lifting her hand, she held it up and took a breath. She wasn't even sure why she was feeling the way she was at the moment. The familiar feeling in the pit of her stomach was back again and then she had mild flashback of the emotions she felt at the end of summer and the beginning of the term.
Wait, was she actually starting to like Evan like that? Seriously, that was rather unexpected for her. She didn't want to go down that road with anyone again, she didn't want to have to fight for any kind of affection. No, she couldn't possible like him like that. She was just upset Carter spilt his drink on her dress. A dress, she loved and made her feel a least a bit pretty.
Bitting her lip softly, she shook her head again. The tears that were once welling in her eyes were all but gone, but the slight tingle of pain was still there. Evan had made her smile and made her feel moderately pretty, yet she had just caught him flirting with her best friend's girlfriend. "I only want to know one thing," she said slowly as to stop her voice from creaking. She was truly affected and she knew it now. "Why?" |

Payton J. McNiven | Sorry. >.> She's.........um. Yeah. Ama!Nabs IS NAMED MINHO & Is SO Black Panther Right Now Reaching down, Celestina grabbed one foot with both of her hands. Making sure she wasn't going to need an amputation, she got to massaging it. In the meantime, she turned her face while it rested on her lap to gaze over at Raiden.
"Yeah? Did you have love potion crisis? I think, at one point, a student and a professor wanted to marry," declared Bucky. That was totally disturbing and life changing. "Then, one time, the Hufflepuff prefect got turned into a goat. I suppose you can't say you went to Hogwarts unless a student or two got turned into some kind of animal and started running rampant down the hallways."
Or trying to eat Professor's robes.
"Yeah? Fire, huh? I guess they stopped trying to shove veritaserum down student's throats. Happened to me." It was horrible. You know what was more horrible that veritaserum?
Love Confessions. Celestina couldn't exactly hear what was going on but the butterflies had come from that place and she could tell by the gestures and the face expression what was happening.
Ew. Young love. Quietly as possible, Celestina blew a raspberry in their direction.
