Slytherin House Table
 

Eat, drink, and be merry, O Snakes, for tomorrow we go home.

<33
 

Trixie was depressed. Majorly. But next term would be even harder for the Snake. Rigt now she just had to deal with her favourite prefect leaving. Next term it was a whole different story. Seriously. Her 7th year would be heart breaking. But just to focus on the feast right now yes? Because they would be going home tomorrow and she needed to socialize with as many people as was possible. Siiiiiigh

So the Blonde was sat there, staring blankly at the Middle of the Table, listening to the conversations that were soon to envelop the space around her. Who else was leaving this term? Oh Patrick. And of course Vanessa, and Torin. But that was all she knew right? Well she hoped anyway.

O_O


Okay happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts Trix. Think of who you will still have. Your family is still here. And a lot of your friends. At least she'd be able to make a few more happy memories and it wasn't her turn to say goodbye yet. That would be toughest of all. Her last year at Hogwarts.

Emma entered the Great Hall, not many people were in here yet. She looked over at the Slythie table to see if Sel was there. But she wasn't. She pouted slowly. But then.. Emma saw her cousin, Trixie, sitting at the table. She grinned. Trixie looked... depressed. Had something happened between Trix and her boyfriend??

Emma took a seat by her. "Why the long face?" she asked her cousin. She gave her a hug. Emma sighed and couldn't believe the year had ended so quickly. She wished that it could have been longer. She turned to Trixie. "I can't believe the year is over! We'll be back in no time!" she exclaimed, trying to get the sad look off Trixie's face.

Hum Dee Dum. Where was everyone? It was unusual for the Great Hall to be practically empty. She was the first one at the Slytherin table. Weird.

Trixie turned and looked as a new face approached her at the table. Thankful that it was someone who would indeed be staying until Trixie herself Graduated. At least her family was still there. Because they were the ones that provided all the support. "Hey emma" she smiled softly before returning her gaze back to the centre of the table.

Siiiiigh

Why the long face? Err because it was the end of term? "I dunno. It's just sad to see some people go isn't it?" she asked softly. No need to depress the younger cousin. Think Happy! She smiled a little more at her next comment. "Yeah we will. Not long. And I'm sure we'll see each other anyway" she said with a wink. Family reunions and what not. "But some others aren't ever coming back."

*Sniff*

Emma smiled at her cousin. "Yeah it is. But you'll be able to keep in touch with them, right?" she reminded her cousin. "Oh yes at the Family reunions! Fun!" She laughed and returned Trixie's wink.

She then paused and sighed. She pouted a bit. Sel wasn't coming back next year. She frowned. "Yeah sadly Sel isn't coming back next year. But we'll keep in touch. So going to try out for Quidditch again next year?" she asked her cousin changing the subject, to make her cousin a bit happier.. She knew that Trixie and her shared the same passion for Quidditch.

Trixie decided that she'd better consume something otherwise all this staring blankly would just make her even more hungry and being Vegan, she needed a lot to replace anything vital in a non vegan diet. So picking up a glass that was strategically placed on the table, Trixie muttered "Agumenti" and the glass refilled itself with water. That would do for now. So she took a gentle sip and placed the water back down in front of her on the table. Okay this was meant to be fun right? Now was the time to celebrate seeing as they didn't get a Quidditch party or anything. They'd all survived a year at Hogwarts without being attacked or anything.

Teehee

The fifth year, took in a big breath and moved her gaze back to the younger Slytherin. "Of course I will... I'm not letting them get out of contact with me" she said with a sly expression. There was no escaping Trixie that easily. "Oh come on, it will be fun. You and me could go riding down on the farm" she suggested. Sounded like a good plan to her. She loved her horses.

Trixie looked and smiled sympathetically at her cousin. Sel? She was sure she'd met her but her memory wasn't as it used to be. "Oh I'm sorry Em" she said putting an arm around her cousins shoulder. Because family always stuck together. "You've got other friends right? And you can ALWAYS come to me if you need anything" she reassured her. Trix would be a sixth year next term. Rather shocking to behold. And her cousin a second year. She was so proud. They'd got through it all. The good, the bad and the ugly.

Quidditch. Now there was a subject that cheered Trixie up a lot. "Of course I will. Especially if.....As" she corrected herself because she purely hoped he still was captain, "Oliver is still our captain" she grinned mischievously. She may Knock him out with a cricket ball and make sarcastic retorts but there was no denying the two weren't friends. Trix thought them especially close. "As long as they let me back on. I swear it wasn't my fault I punched that firstie in the Championship" she said biting her lip.

Emma grinned at her cousin and took a sip of her own water. She was glad that nothing bad had happened. Emma nodded. "yes I know you won't! You'll probably send two owls a week!" teased Emma. Emma nodded. "Yes that will be fun! But... the family dinner will be.. lets saying interesting!" she exclaimed, laughing.

Emma gave a small smile. "It's okay! Yeah I have other friends. In Ravenclaw and Gryffindor! Yes, I'll always have you! And you can always come to me too!" she added. Wow, she'd be twelve soon, her birthday was in a few days.

Emma laughed when she brought up Oliver. "You aren't going to go throw something at him again.. are you??" she asked her cousin, laughing. Trixie would accidently. She remembered something about Oliver getting hit this year.. was that Trixie.. yep, must have been. "Me too! He's a great captain!" she exclaimed. "Well you didn't cause any more problems right? So you'll be on the team without a doubt! I bet that firstie was asking for it." she said teasingly.

Trixie relaxed a little now, still confused as to why the Slytherin was emptier then it should be. She'd of thought it would be full of people wanting to say their goodbyes. She knew a few Professors were leaving as well. Too many people leaving led to a bad atmosphere. That wasn't good for Trixie at all. But the Blonde now managed a proper smile. One that wasn't weak and full of sympathy like they often were. Well apart from her evil smirk, that appeared quite often when she was in the mood. But now she was rambling in her head and she should be focused on who she was talking to and what about.

Trixie rolled her eyes, jokingly of course. "I'm not that desperate for attention" she laughed, adding on a wink to show she was joking. Knowing her she'd have someone new around every single day, whether it be a family member or friend. "Your welcome around mine whenever you like anyway" she grinned softly, sure that Emma knew that anyway. Her mother would love to see her again. "You bet" she replied about the family dinner. Commotion more like. But at least there were people there Trix appreciated.

Glad that her cousin had a lot more friends in other houses too, Trixie smiled and nodded. "Same goes for lessons. If you need help with them as well, homework, anything" Yeah because Trix was a swot apparently. *Rolls eyes*. Aww see. The Malfoy family were so close. "Yeah I know that. Expect to see me a lot next term" she giggled. Might need some emotional support come the end of it.

Trixie rolled her eyes again. Man news travelled fast in this place. Then again, maybe the fact that she and the prefect Sarah, were levitating Unconscious Oliver trough the school might have been just a little bit of a giveaway. "Oh you know about that eh?" she asked, the sly glint returning to her Hazel eye. "That was an amazing shot, it was just his head was in the way. Besides he shouldn't have offended my aim" because THAT was Trix's excuse. "And I scored twice in the Championships so no complaining." Cue a little giggled. Melissa asking for it? She was sure the Hufflepuff was fairly innocent but she was rather threatening with a beaters bat being swung towards Trixie. "No fouls and two goal." Griiiin.

Emma laughed. "Thanks Trix. My parents would love to see you. And so would my brother, Draco. He's actually written me letters. He says that he misses me." she explained, laughing. Ah family dinner at the Malfoys so much fun! Sometimes it was a battle but other times it was quiet and peaceful.

Emma nodded. "Okay then I'll come for Herbology help!!" she exclaimed happily. She still didn't like Herbology. Her and Trixie were pretty tight. She could go to Trixie about anything! It was like Trixie was a twin but much older. They looked a lot alike, except for that Emma had grey eyes. "All right! I will!" she exclaimed laughing, knowing that Trixie always kept her word.

Emma laughed again. "Yeah I did. Yeah you have a perfect aim, Oliver was just in the wrong place at the wrong time!" she said teasingly. She gave her a wink to tell her that she was joking. "Well that's amazing! I'm so proud of you! That's good. Next year you'll get ten goals and one foul!" she exclaimed, giving her cousin another wink.

OOC: g2g but I'll be back on later!! :)

It seemed like time had just rushed by from the start of term, Raven felt like she had just wasted time away doing nonsense when in fact she was spending time with her friends, hanging around with boys and of course working on music. She walked into the Great Hall and noticed some of her friends were at their house tables so she figured it was best to speak with her housemates one last time before leaving Hogwarts.

Walking over to the Slytherin table, she took a seat and then stared off into space; at least she could distract herself from the fact that pretty soon she was going to be a graduated student.

Fallon was finally able to drag herself from the craziness that was the Hufflepuff table. She was going to miss Torin, but she didn't know half of the people that had surrounded him. She wanted to spend some time with her housemates. She picked a nice semi-empty spot at the end of the table. She looked down at the food. It still didn't look that appealing to her.

Simon found Fallon, which was a good thing, he had awhile back received a letter from his dad telling him about an event and that he wanted to meet a friend of Simons, so Simon had chose Fallon, that was if she wanted to go to a ball with him, well he would have to ask her, but first he would have to chat too her.

Simon walked up to Fallon, he was glad that she had been easy to find. "Hi Fallon, how was your year?" Simon smiled as he looked straight at her. "Have you had a good time?" Simon looked around the room before turning back to Fallon, he decided to let her say something before continuing.

Fallon smiled as she heard a familiar voice. It was her little firstie friend Simon, who wouldn't be a firstie for much longer. Term went by way too fast. She could still remember the first day she met Simon. It was an interesting day.

Fallon smiled at the boy. "It was pretty good. I met a lot of new people." She smiled again. "Of course I did! Hogwarts is always fun!" She did a quick look around the room to see if she saw anyone else. She then turned back to Simon. "Did you enjoy your first year here?"

Simon smiled at Fallon. "This term has gone by way too fast, it seems like only yesterday, I was here getting sorted into Hufflepuff, but that was at the beginning of the term." Simon laughed.

Simon looked at Fallon. "I am glad that you have made loads of new friends." Simon said truthfully, though he wished she had spend more time with him, he had hardly seen her. "I did enjoy it, I made a lot of new friends too." Simon smiled. "I also enjoyed the lessons." Simon looked straight at Fallon. "Do you want to go to a ball this summer?" He had finally decided it was the right moment.

Fallon let out a sigh. She definately agreed with him on that one. "This term went by way to fast. Way WAY too fast." She so did not want the term to end. She really wished it was nowhere near the end of the term.

Fallon nodded. "They're all pretty interesting too." There was definately a couple that she couldn't even describe in words. "That's great! You can never have enough friends!" She nodded her head as he said he enjoyed the lesson. "The lessons are always great. Especially Muggle Studies." She hoped they would still be like that next term.

Fallon was a little taken aback by his question. Did she want to go to a ball?! "Um...sure. I'd have to ask my dad of course." She was so not sure that he would let her.

End of term feast... Something Rae had not really been looking forward to, it meant the end of the year. The end of her and Xylon at school. Though she knew the summer would hold great stuff for them as well as the rest of the future. She sat down and took her place at the dinner table. Waiting for more people to sit down, she was a bit early anyways.

She was going to wait till almost the food was presented at the opening feast, not really wanting to attend it in the first place, but her nerves and antsy attitude was starting to get to her. So here she was, staring at the Slytherin table, looking for a place to sit.

Not many people but well, oh, well there was Rae. That was good. She didn't know why that was good but, it was good. Nodding to herself, Evelyn glanced around at the other tables, mostly towards the Gryffindor table to see if she was able to spot Patroclus or Josh before sitting down next to the older Slytherin. "Hey." she said quietly, tapping her fingers on the table as if impatient for something.

Perhaps she was. Or perhaps she wasn't...she didn't even know herself.

Glancing over until she saw Evelyn sitting with her, she muttered back "Hi." Maybe it didn't sound like the most friendly greeting, but Evelyn didn't look too excited either, well.... They will both be doing something different this summer. Guess it's kinda typical... Right?

Simon looked at Fallon. "Well when you know, can you please tell me, that way I can sort things out." Simon smiled at her, "It would be great if you do come you can meet people." Simon winked at her before looking around too see if there was anyone else he knew but there wasn't. "What you doing?"

He had been trying to get to see Rae alone for a while now. Couple of days. Maybe more. Which was why when he spotted her at the Snake Table, Xylon headed over. Only to see Evelyn join her before he could. He paused by the table and then decided he might as well go there.

"Hi," his voice was quiet. "What am I disturbing?" No need to bother with the 'am I disturbing anything?' when he knew he was.

His eyes flicked from Rae to Evelyn.

Nodding slightly to show that she had heard Rae, the third year's black eyes flickered over to the Gryffindor table once more, hoping to see any sign of the...two...boys but...

She got distracted again. For one, there was Rae's Gryffie standing right there, and he asked something. Something that she did not hear. Shrugging her shoulders, and opting that she should be nice, Evelyn scooted slightly away from Rae in case they had any lovey moments. He was a seventh year wasn't he? Which meant he was leaving. Which also meant there was no doubt...going to be lovey moments. And BEFORE the feast too! Bleh.

And another thing that distracted her was that it looked like everyone was hugging and circling Truebridge. Psssh! Of course she wasn't jealous or anything. Was she?

....

Yes. Yes she was. Pffft.

Rae looked up not really understanding the question, "Hm?" Then with the gears turning in her head she realized what Xylon had asked.. "OH! Oh, nothing. Here, sit." Rae motioned a seat next to her. Then put a smile on to indicate that there was nothing wrong. Which there really wasn't anything wrong...

This was sort of bittersweet for Dillon. It had been his best year ever. He had made a lot of house points, helped Slytherin make it to the Quidditch championships for the first time in years and he had even gotten a girlfriend. A pretty darn good one at that. He smiled as he walked into the Greaqt Hall. And Slytherin had won the House Cup. Again for the first time in years. He looked around and saw some of hs friends and he waved at them.

He sat down at the table waiting for Selena, he was saving her a seat.

Oh. It looked like Evelyn was getting..... ideas. Xylon raised an eyebrow as she scooted away. She didn't look like she wanted to make conversation but he guessed it might have something to do with the fact that it was the end of the term. That could mean a lot more than it looked like it could. He knew what it meant for him.

Rae didn't look her usual self either. Or perhaps she did. He needed to stop over-analyzing everything today. He sat down next to her, quiet for a while. Then he looked up.

"You alright?"

gonna take a shower and do laundry.. be back in a bit.
 

Rae was in the middle of the two of them. Looking back and forth between them she saw Evelyn's expression, and mentally rolled her eyes. Then looked at Xylon when he asked her if everything was alright. "Yeah... yeah I'm fine." Was the food ready yet? She was ready for the food so this awkwardness could be broken
