Brittany had already said as soon as she was able to send a note back home to her parents she would. She was dying to tell her dad about the triwizard competition.

She walked in and saw loads of owls but none were hers. "Keegan" she called. with a soft whistle. He heard her and flew done to her shoulder. "That's a good boy.' she said smiling and giving him a treat.she had remembered what fee had said earlier. "Okay Boy I need you to take this to mom and dad for me. Can you do that?" she asked the owl. He softly nipped her hand, stuck out his leg for the letter and was off before she knew it. She smiled as she watched him soar throught the night

Anais 09-03-2010 01:31 AM

"Vernir ici, Cupid!" Anais called loudly, and her elf owl appeared on her shoulder. She scribbled down a private note to her mother in France and tied it to Cupid's leg, giving him a small kiss on the head and watching him fly away.

It had only been about a day at this new school and she was already missing her freinds at her old school She thought she might as well send them a letter being that she was so not into her family much anymore. Her freinds back home were the only people in her life that she cared to keep in contact with and thus she wrote a letter about her first impression of Hogwarts and tied the parchment to an owls leg. She then watched the bird take bird off on its way and she smiled feeling the happiest she'd been since she got to Hogwarts.

MEh, not even a DAY and Kodes already NEEDED to Owl her two favorite boys; Orlando and Uncle Sean. She missed them. Like a lot, a lot a lot. Oreocakes shoulda come WITH her. Sighhhh. But she understood that he had a big plate alright. So she wasn't mad at him. Nope. She didn't get mad at him a lot anyways.

Drawing her fingers to her lips and giving a sharp whistle, Kodykins waited for Duch to fly down from the rafters.

OWLS. BIG SCARY OWLS.

Okaaaaayyyy....so owls weren't that big but they were still pretty scary to Savannah Conrad. They could like poke you with their nose beak things and POOP on your head! Not cool, not cool. She did need to send a letter to Cody though so she kind of had to get over the whole bird fear thing. Sigh. This proved how much she really did care for Cody. She was willing to get pooped on by owls just to talk to him.

Oh hey, it was the other Russell! Nekoda Russell as in, Savannah's best friend who was kind of mad at her right now! Wait, was she still mad ? Savannah didn't know any more. She wasn't going to act all scared though so she walked up to the girl, smiling.

"Going to write Orlando, hmm ?"Aw, her baby brother. Savannah did love her brother lots.

Pamphylia reallly wanted to send this note to her mother. There was so much to tell her!! The triwizard tournament, her soarting, and her new friends.

"Tahlia!" She called out. Her Tawny owl was almost imidiatly on her shoulder. "Mother." She said as she tied the note to Tahia's leg. Tahlia nibbled her finger, affectionatly, and Pam pet her. She was off, carrying the note to her mother.

Kody spun around hearing a familiar voice, and smiled, nodding happily. "Of course! Oreocakes and Uncle Sean! I miss them already." Giving a slight sigh, before spotting Savannah's letter, Kody fought off a bad mood, turning back to look at Duch who was flying to her. AWhh, Kodes loved her little elfish owl. "I don't even wanna know who your writing do I?" Meh.

Shaking her head, Kody didn't wanna fight again, so she plastered a smile and turned back. "OMG Savannah! Superrrrr cute guy at Hufflepuff table that I just met. Seriously, he's to die for. I might just make him my flirt!buddy."

Uncle Sean and Oreocakes? Yeah, Savannah wasn't exactly surprised. Those two were Nekoda Russell's main men, Savannah was unsure how she was going to survive the term without them. Hehhh."I miss Orlando..."Sav said, honestly. She did love her brother a lot, picking favorite was mean and all but she really did like her brother more than her little sister. Xiomara was such a brat. Hehhhe. Kody knew it perfect. They knew each other well didn't they? "Mhm..."Savannah wasn't going to say anymore cause if she said more Nekoda would get mad and that just wouldn't be fun.

Cute guy ? Huffie ?"Give me DETS, girl!"Savannah said a smile breaking out on her face. Was it weird the fact that Nekoda was totally dating Orlando was flirting with other boys? Not really, well....not to Savannah anyway. Hehh."What's his name? What's he look like ?"Gah, she was so curious.

Nekoda nodded, biting her lip, "Yeah. I miss him too. A lot." Mehh, but it was only a year. And there were owls, and she'd see him during holiday too...right? Of course! Frowning she nodded, Cody. Ew?

But no, they weren't talking about, they were talking about Hufflepuff hottie. Mmm. "Tehe, his name is Beck Salvatore. The smexiest accent you will EVER come across. Amazing hair, and his eyes? to DIE for. Seriously." SO. CUTE.

Savannah chuckled as Nekoda spoke so fondly of her brother. She was just used to it by now, Kody had always had a thing for Orlando even when they were younger."Well, just remember he is suffering along with you..."Savannah said, looking down at the ground as she tried to remind herself BIRDS weren't flying every where! Savannah Conrad realllllllly didn't like birds, nopers. Savvy rolled her eyes as Nekoda frowned. Why did she had to be so mean to Cody ? Cody wasn't that bad, Savannah really liked him. Kody was probably just jealous or something. <_<

......Beck? Oh. Crap. This wasn't good. Why you ask? BECK WAS HER EX AND EXES ARE JUST LIKE OFFLIMITS TO FRIENDS, THATS JUST LIKE THE RULES OF FEMINISM! Savannah smelled drama, like a lot of it. The worst part was? Her and Beck's relationship was a bit of a secret at Hogwarts so kody didn't know. This was going to be hard to explain...


"Ohhh....I know him."
COUGH."I dated him after Aiden and I broke up...."

:erm:

TAKE IT OFF IS ON! :O *dances*

Kody frowned, "I know, but WHY do we have to suffer. I wish your parents woulda allowed you both to come." But they didn't. Oh well, Kody still loved them. Well, at least she still loved Mrs. R. "Justtt a year. That's my new mantra." Tehe, giggle.

Huh? She...knew him? Frowning Kody crossed her arms, "And WHY don't you seem excited for me?" Of course she wouldn't actually DATE him, because she loved Oreo, but she WOULD flirt a little. Erm, a lot? Yeah.

WHOA WHAT!? "You...did...WHAT!? Why the hell was I never informed of this! Jeez Sav! And you get mad at ME for keeping one night a secret. You didn't tell me about an entire RELATIONSHIP." Hmph. Hypocrite.

Calezilla 09-03-2010 05:08 AM

"Mom, not my parents."Savannah correct Nekoda, looking at the ground. Her father actually made no decision in the whole going to school things, he was too busy in Spain or something. It made Savannah frown just thinking about it. She missed being all perfect not this mess of awesomeness. :/ Unfortunately for her though, there was nothing she could do about it!

Wince.

Mal. This was Mal which meant bad, very bad.

"It wasn't like that! We had our reasons for keeping it a secret!"Savannah said, snapping at Nekoda. What was up with her and getting mad at her for EVERYTHING she did? It got kind of annoyed."I think you are just jealous in all honesty."The blonde said, her voice monotone. She shrugged, who wouldn't be jealous of her?

Chelliephone 09-03-2010 05:18 AM

O_O I see Spanish. it makes my head hurt. LOL!

Nekoda winced, biting her lip and nodding, "I'm sorry Savannah. I shouldn't have said that." Because it was MEAN and INSENSTIVE and Kody usually wasn't that to those she actually cared about. Like the Conrad's. "How are you doing with that anyways?"

Wait...what? Nekoda blinked, shaking her head, "Oh? And I didn't have MY reasons for not telling YOU?" Erm, yeah? She had. And they were prettehhhh big. Huge really. Jealous? "Get OVER yourself. I don't NEED to be jealous of you. Wanna know why? Because I have a boyfriend who LOVES me. Not multiples who only want me for my body." Sure, there were guys that DID want her for her body, but she really couldn't blame them.

Calezilla 09-03-2010 05:29 AM

LOL. xD I love how she is saying sorry and then getting all mad.

Savannah shrugged her shoulders, "Okay I guess."Savannah really didn't want to talk about it, it was a touchy and not so happy subject. The blonde bit her lip, looking down at the ground still. Things still weren't going so swell at home. Savannah's head shot up as Nekoda spoke. WOAH.Someone was bitter? Savannah raised an brow, listening to the girl speak. "And I had my reasons for not telling you about Beck..."Savannah said, shaking her head. Really? Really? Really? A fight with her bestie? This was an awful way to start the term, it really was.

"Take that back."Savannah said, looking at her friend. It wasn't the truth, guys actually liked her they weren't using her for snogs or anything."Aiden liked me for more than that, so did Beck as well as Cody."Uh on.She mentioned Cody, she pretty much shot herself in the foot right there.

Emmy rushed into the Owlery, clutching a piece of folded parchment in her hand. Desperately she looked round for her owl, Dapple.
Finally, she spotted her, far above her head in the rafters.
"Come on, Dapple, there's a good girl! Oh, please come down, Dapple! I have to get this letter to mum!" she pleaded with her bird, who eventually consented to descend, and stuck out her leg. Emmy tied the letter on securely, and whispered to Dapple, "Fly as quick as you can, get a reply, and fly back straight away - I have to know how daddy is..." she ran to a window, released the owl, and watched until she became a dot, then a speck, and finally vanished into the evening sky. Turning, Emmy walked slowly and thoughtfully back down.

Nixy! 09-03-2010 01:07 PM

Iris practically skipped all the way to the Owlery. She wanted, no NEEDED to owl her Mum before someone else did.

When she was in the Owlery, she smiled at the people who were already in here, raising her eyebrow slightly as she heard snippets of the conversation. Ah... it wasn't worth butting into. Wands were still away and hair was intact. With a little smirk on her face, feeling quite sure that she'd NEVER need to have THAT argument for herself, Iris skipped up some steps to find the usual owl that she borrowed from the Owlery.

"Heeey there, Roger. C'mere boy." She coo'd a little to get the owl to come to her. "Look, I have an important letter for you to send home for me."

Heh. That works EVERY TIME. Only, this time it actually WAS important. Iris let the owl fly onto her shoulder and then sat down and took the letter out.

She checked over it, to make sure that it was okay, before letting the owl take it. "Don't lose it now, okay? My mum needs to get this letter. I'll get you some owl treats for when you get back, too." Hehe. Roger was awesome. And the reason why she didn't want to get her own owl. He was practically hers.

Lauralicious 09-03-2010 02:57 PM

Fee had to send a owl to her family.
Hogwarts was just awesome and her family should know that.
She waked over to Baily and gave her a cookie.

Chelliephone 09-03-2010 04:14 PM

xD I know right?

Nekoda shook her head, ignoring the statement about her family. Now was not the time to be sympathetic, when what she REALLEH wanted was to like, transfigure Savannah's shoes into UGLY things. HMPH! "You can be such a hypocrite Sav." Oh merlin, what a WONDERFUL way to start the year. Best friends fighting. Lovely.

Crossing her arms, she shook her head, "No. I won't. Because it's entirely TRUE." Cody?! CODY!? "Uhm, EW! And besides, I still think YOUR his rebound hook up after that cow Delanie left him. That doesn't scream 'love' to me. As for Aiden, he DUMPED you." Oh jeez, she was on a roll now. "And Beck? He was probably YOUR little rebound after Aiden. Face it Savannah, you hate being alone so you occupy yourself with little flings that mean NOTHING. Why would I be jealous of that?"

Eye roll. What was up with Kody? Why was she so bitter about everything? It made no sense to Savannah at all. Can't she just be happy for her friend for once and not CARE who she wanted to snog? It was Cody, who wasn't even that bad, she never understood why they fought. "I'm not a hypocrite, you could at least TRY and accept the fact that I like Cody..."Savannah said looking at Nekoda. Of course, she liked Aiden more but there were feelings there for Cody.

:errr:

Savannah stood, mouth hanging open. She was shocked, utterly shocked at what Kody had just said. It stung too, it stung a lot. She wasn't even sure how to respond to that? This wasn't Ella saying this, this was Nekoda her best friend. Savannah shook her head, "Your wrong."The blonde shook her head and started to walk out of the room, tears in her eyes.

Nekoda shook her head, letting out a harsh laugh. "Yeah right. Cause you actually like him? Isn't he just your little fill in for Aiden?" Not that she cared. It'd be cool to see Cody get hurt, but still SNOGGING her cousin was just wayyyyy too gross.

O_____________________________o

Okay, so maybeeee Kody had gone a little too far, but her pride kept her from apologizing. Was she being a cow? Yep. A BIG FAT HUGE ONE. But she wasn't going to admit that in front of Savannah. Kodah watched her friend turn, and start heading out of the Owlery, and Kody bit her lip. Apologize? No. That wasn't an option. "I don't think I am."

Cora stepped into the owlery and looked around for Lily. She finally spotted her near the top of the owlery. She whistled and Lily came flying down and landed on her arm. Cora looked her in the eyes and said "I have a letter for you to deliver to Mum and Dad for me. Have a good flight and take your time. Love you." Cora put the letter in Lily's mouth and she flew off. Cora watch from the window until Lily was out of view. Then, she turned around and headed out of the owlery.

Pam dragged her into the owlry.

"First stop, owlry!!" She turned around, and let go of Liz's wrist. "Whoops, sorry. I just got really excited." She laughed, and blushed a little, in embarrisment. "Tahlia!" She called, turning her attention to the owls. Searching for her brown-tawny owl. Ah! There she was. Tahlia landed on Pam's out-stretched arm, and stuck out her leg. A letter was attached from it.

"That was fast. Geeze my moms talented. This is a letter from her." She stuffed the letter inside her robes, careful not to drop, so she'll read it later. "Here, just tie the letter onto her leg."

Liz felt the blood rush back to her fingertips when Pam let go, but it didn't bother her that she almost lost feeling permanently in them. She was having too much fun! Pam blushed and Liz smiled. She was so happy!

When Pam called out her owl's name, it gracefully landed on Pam's arm. Liz had always thought owls were so beautiful. This owl, Tahlia, already had a letter tied to its leg. Pam took it off and said it was from her mom. Liz watched her tuck it into her robes, and felt a pang of... jealousy. Pam's mom could write letters to her without bursting into tears and blotting the ink.

Liz wondered if her mother would ever be able to write her a letter.

Following Pam's instructions, she tied the letter addressed to her dad to the owl's leg and gave it a stroke on its soft feathers.

"Thanks," Liz turned to Pam, "Where did you get the name 'Tahlia?' It's really pretty."

Pam watched as Liz tied the letter to Tahlia's leg. Tahlia went to peck at Liz's finger, but Pam pulled her arm back.

"Bad Tahlia. Don't do that to others. Just me." Pam held out her finger so Tahlia nibbled it in affection. She rustled her feathers, and with a little push of her arm, Tahlia was off. "Sorry 'bout that. She likes to nibble my finger when a letter is sent, kinda like, 'yes i know where i'm going' kinda thing." She showed Liz her few scratches on her finger. "But that's ok. I need to find like some treats for her." She smiled.

"So who were you sending that to? Your mom?"

Oh no. Pam had asked her the unforgivable question. Well, it wasn't the question directly, but it could lead to it.

Liz sucked in a breath as she prepared her statement, "No, my dad. My mom doesn't really write letters." Now that just sounded stupid. Whose mom didn't write letters?!

"Not that she's illiterate or something," she said quickly, trying to cover herself up, "She just... doesn't. Can't. I guess. Well, not really to me, anyway. Usually she can write letters to me, but just not now. Because I'm at Hogwarts, she can't. Well, she can, but-" Liz stopped there. She was making her mom sound like a complete jerk, which she wasn't. And she had made everything a lot more complicated than it needed to be. Her mom just couldn't write to her right now.

Liz expected Pam to urge her on, so she decided to close the subject, "It's really complicated. I can explain it all some other time. To the lake?" She hoped that her new friend didn't see the glassy tears that were threatening to spill.


ooc: bring on the drama! haha

As soon as Pam had asked her the question, she regretted it. She didn't mean to upset her new friend, she just was curious. Stupid curiosity!!!!

She didn't quite know what to do. But she just gave Liz a hug. "Don't worry about it. When you're ready, just tell me, K? So, to the lake?" She smiled sweetly to Liz. She felt really bad for asking it, but tried not to let it show. As she tried to get her hyper mood back by pulling Liz over to the lake.

ooc: bring it! lol

That made Liz smile. Pam didn't want to rush her, and gave her a hug.

As the warmth escaped her fingers once more, it flooded to her heart.

"To the lake!"

Sapphie walked in to see Cupid flying smack into her.
"Ahh, Cupid!" she said with her french accent and giggling.
She noticed a letter tied to his leg, untied it, and kissed the top of his head.
"Bon chouette." she said happily and he flew off her leg. She read the note:
Quote:

Dear my beautiful Sapphinelle,
I miss you so much back in France and Papie is fussing over me here. We can't wait to see you for Christmas! And don't worry, I'm doing fine over here. Being with the family has really changed my mood and the doctor has prescribed me some new medication that seems to be very effective. Je t'aime, ma chérie!
Maman
Sapphinelle shed a tear and put the note in a safe pocket inside her Juicy Couture purse. She looked out the window to see the beautiful morning sky dawn over Hogwarts, and decided to run to the Library to get some more studying crammed in her brain before classes start.

Ashley walked into the owlery and looked around for Bandit. She couldn't see him amongst all the other owls.
'Bandit?!' She called out. The beautiful snowy owl flew graceful and towards her and landed on her out-stretched arm. Ashley stroked her while asking
'Do you feel like going for a little fly then Bandit?'
Ashley was starting to feel a little homesick and was starting to miss her boyfriend Dale who was back home. She wasn't sure how she'd be able to be away from him for so long if she already missed him after this short amount of time.
'I've got two letters for you to deliver. One's for Dale and the other's for Ross.' She decided it would be a better idea to send a letter to her older brother rather than her parents as they would most likely be too busy to read it.
'And make sure you do not leave Dale until he writes back. Peck him if you have to!' Ashley thought about Dale and how hard he found to say his feelings and imagined him sitting for hours trying to think of what to write back while Bandit kept pecking at him, she let out a little giggle.
'Off you go then,' she said. Bandit took off and Ashley watched him fly off into the distance until she could no longer see him.

Carmela walked up the stairs to the Owlery. " Dora!" She called. Her little owl flew over and landed on her shoulder.
"Hey, girl," Carmela chooed as the owl hooted. "I need you to take this letter to Ms.Helen and to my parents." 'I highly doubt that my parents will even glance at my letter.'
"Now wait to see of Ms.Helen writes back, ok?" The owl hooted and took the two letters and flew off. Carmela watched with sadness. Her parents wouldn't like it that she had to them that she was in Gryffindor over a letter.

I wonder what everyone's doing back home. I hope Bandit makes it there and back okay, she thought.
Ashley was still standing looking out after Bandit when she heard a familiar voice, it was Carmela.
She waited until Carmela had finished talking to her owl then grinned and said 'Your owl's really cute!'

Carmela looked around and saw Ashley! 'Ooppss! I didn't relaize people were actually here...'
"Hey Ashley! Thanks. I would say the same but I didn't see your owl." Carmela smiled and stared after her little owl. She was scared about what her parents would say. 'Would they send a Howler?! Omg that would be so bad.' Carmela's face fell at this thought but quickly remembered she was with someone so she put her smile back on.

It was time. Time to send a message to one of the most important people in her life. Someone she wished was there with her now, to make this not necessary. But no - Miranda was hundreds of miles away with the Harpies, doing her training, and the time until they would see her again seemed longer than ever. Wiping away a tear, Sarah entered the owlery, her parchment, ink and quill in hand. She wasn't going to write it until she got there, she hadn't been able to think what to put before then. But now, she twiddled the quill between her fingers, and then began to write.

Quote:

Things have been pretty eventful since we got here. No quidditch for a start, you know. I had a vision of you in my head protesting at that when Tate told us at the feast, it was funny. We are hosting something called the TriWizard Tournament, and have guests from Beauxbaton and Durmstrang staying with us. Brielle and Nikolai have been posted to Hufflepuff, both are lovely - although Nik seems a little too charming. I've been showing Brielle around, and she seems to like everything so far. We'll have to see how the tournament goes, don't think I'll enter, not brave enough. lol

But anyway I'd best not make this too long, I bet you don't have alot of time to do other things, eh? I hope you're having fun, and that a first team place is yours REALLY soon. I love you, sweetie, and miss you so much. <3333

Love, Sarah xxxx

P.S Oliver is Head Boy! Did you know that?! I think I nearly fainted into crup toys when Trixie told me. lol I'm sure we'll work okay together though.

She just remembered to add that little bit at the end, and blew on the words to help them dry. Rolling up the parchment, she looked around for her owl. "Screeeeech!" Sarah called out, smiling as the snowy owl came fluttering down to the stand in front of her. Tying the letter to his leg, she gave him a kiss on the head. "Make sure Miranda gets this, please."

Taking a deep breath as she watched him fly out the owlery and off into the distance, Sarah wiped yet another tear from her face.

MJ'sheels clacked on the tile floor as she made her way to send a letter. Her mom had asked her to send a letter once she got to Hogwarts, and he she was doing so, if only a few days late. Her mother would just have to deal with it. "Glitter!" she called, her voice quiet but firm. The owl fluttered down from the rafters and landed on her outstretched arm. "Take this to Cleo,"she never called her mother Mom. Never.

Reserved for my Twinnie and Preston's Hogwarts Mummy MJ. :D
 
Preston thought that he'd take this free time in his day to find where the owls were kept so he knew exactly where to go when he needed to find Randall and send him home for whatever reasons. He could hear wings flapping nearby and he knew that he was close. Stepping up the last few steps his foot caught on the very last step and sent him flying into the air and eventually landing back on the floor.

Preston let out a sigh as he pushed himself up with his hands and sat there on the floor of the owlery looking about. He was amazed that even the owlery of Hogwarts was magnificent. Seeing that he wasn't alone Preston hurried himself up from the floor and went in search of Randall his small owl.

MJ glanced up as she heard a thump on the stairs. What in the world...? She moved her arm upward so Glitter would fly off, and then turned to go find the source of the noise. She didn't have to go far, though. Poor Preston was on the floor, gazing around.

MJ gave a quiet chuckle. "Preston?" she asked, noticing he was getting up. "Are you alright dear?"

She paused, maybe he wasn't going to remember that day in Diagon Alley.
"It's me.. MJ." She gave a warm smile. That boy just made her tutter around like a mother hen. And it was adorable.

QueenGinger 09-07-2010 02:18 AM

THE cutest Preston post ever. :)

Preston smiled at MJ. "Y-yes." He smiled showing all teeth before he ran the short distance between them and hugged her tightly around her waist. "I-I-I'm f-f-fine. M-My kn-knees a-are a-a little s-sore, b-b-but n-n-nothing b-b-bad." He told her, thinking back to the summer when he was in Diagon Alley when he tripped and scabbed his knees and hands up badly getting blood everywhere. That was when he met Mr. Torin.

"D-d-did y-you t-t-think I-I'd f-f-for-forget y-you?" He asked, he wouldn't be able to forget MJ and how she had helped him in Diagon. He'd probably still be looking for robes and books if it weren't for her. He hugged her a bit tighter, thankful to have finally found her.

"I-I-I'm h-h-happy I-I f-f-found you!" he exclaimed, still clinging onto MJ.

She inhaled sharply when he hugged her, a bit surprised. MJ then smiled and relaxed, how sweet and beautiful it was just having a little one to look after. She patted his head, occasionally smoothing down a curl or two. "Well, good," she said, "I don't want you to get hurt." How true that was. MJ thought it would pain her too much to see that, especially if she couldn't fix whatever was ailing him.

"You are?" She chuckled a bit, " What, did you think I was just going to disappear?" She smiled warmly at him. "I will never do that, Preston. Ever, I promise."

She knew at that second that she was going to protect this boy. Whenever he tripped, she'd be there. Had a question on homework, she'd be there.

She smiled and gave Preston a squeeze. "What are you up to?" she asked.

He told her, and he did have a little feeling that MJ might have just abandoned him after Diagon. But he had found her after all, and that's all that mattered. :D

Preston suddenly got an odd feeling of strong emotion when she promised she'd never disappear. He looked down at his shoes and fidgeted with the bottom of his button up shirt. He remembered his mum saying she'd never leave him...but she did.

"I-I-I w-was j-just l-looking..." He mumbled softly still looking at his shoes.

MJ kneeled next to him, and looked into his eyes. "What's wrong, dear? Did I say something?" She really hoped she ha-- oh. "My promises aren't empty ones. I don't make promises I can't keep."

She gave him a slight peck on the forehead, and shifted her weight to the other leg. "There's nothing wrong with looking!" she laughed genially. "We could look all day.`Anywhere and everywhere!"

Preston leaned forward and nestled his head into MJ's shoulder. He hadn't realized he was crying now. He tried to speak, but he just couldn't find the effort or energy to stutter out what was wrong. And he was sure that MJ wouldn't understand. He continued to cry as he wrapped his arms around her neck like a little child would their parent; like what he would do at home when he got upset over something and went to his dad. He'd wrap his arms around his neck and crawl into his lap and lie there.

"I-I-I w-w-wan-wanna g-g-go h-h-home." He muffled into MJ's shoulder.

Heather climbed to the owlery and was stunned; there were so many owls she had seen in her life on this place yet and was captivated by it. She began to look around for a school owl and found one. she double-checked her letter first.

Dearest Mommy and Daddy
Hogwarts is amazing! Everything here is so amazing! Cass and I are fine, and I'm housed in Gryffindor! Cass got into Slytherin though.

I met so many new friends mommy, daddy. I thought i never would, but everyone here seems so nice! I have a friend name Kurumi. She's half japanese and amazing! (and she's quite fascinated with magic!) It would be totally nice if you meet her! i also met a really nice prefect! Her name's Cam and she's so nice! there are more people i've also met. There's this one boy named Adam-he's one of kurumi's friends, and girl named Pacifica, she's really nice. There's also Joshua, Sophia, Saphinelle and Katie Star! Saphinelle's from hufflepuff and Katie's from Slytherin. Everyone else is in Gryffindor.

I also wanted to thank you about Mr. Panda! My friends and I are loving him! He's quite as energetic as dad is though. Thanks for enchanting him mommy and daddy!

I'm now practicing myself to not take my usual afternoon naps! I may be small, but i will grow tall and i'm old enough-i'm not a baby anymore! (but i'll still be for you, mom and dad!)

Classes hasn't started yet, but i promise to pay attention. I'll write back my progress as promised, mommy.

one last thing, mommy, daddy, could you send me some books to read and my camera? Kurumi and i plan to use it...don't worry, it's not for trouble-making! Also, can you send me some of grandma olsens' brownies? i miss them already.

I miss you guys so much already! See you on the Holidays!

with a lot of hugs and love,
Heather.

P.S. XOX
Mr. Panda says Hi!


she looked distraught for a moment and tried to remember what else she wanted to say. Oh yes, she forgot to write about that too. taking her quill which she was ready with in her pocket, she scribbled just below what her enchanted panda doll was supposed to have said.

i forgot, the triwizard tournament is also held. i'll keep you guys informed, if you want. Love you!

at this, she tied the letter to an owl's leg and watched it fly away with a smile on her face. She expects some things by the time it comes back.

CharGryffindor 09-07-2010 09:22 PM

Rubiey had been arguing with herself about writing to her mother for the past week. She wasn't sure if she'd want to hear from her; she hated magic, afterall, and Rubiey knew she'd be angry if her new Husband John saw the owl deliever the letter. But Rubiey missed her. Alot. Which was wierd, because they had never been close, and it wasn't as if she hadn't been away from home before; 4 years at a Muggle Boarding School was not easy.

But she had decided that she would write, and get Gabilan to put the letter through the letter box, so it looked as if it had been posted through normally.

SPOILER!!: The Letter
Dear Mum,

Hi. I've arrived at Hogwarts, and it's great. I'm in Gryffindor; the same house dad was in, so thats okay. I've met a few lovely people, and have been invited to stay at one of their houses over Christmas. They're all very helpful here.

I miss you. Send my love to Tommy and Jack.

All my love, Rubiey x

P.S. If you want to reply, The black owl is called Gabilan.


She felt a flutter of wind, and looked up; Gabilan hand landed infront of her and pecked her hand affectionately. "Hey boy." She said softly, stroking his black head. "Take this home, but make sure you post it the normal way, so it doesn't look magicy. Hang around for a bit; if you hear your name, bring back the letter for me." She looked into his big green eyes. He understood. "Have a safe flight." She said, and watched him fly out of the window, until he was out of sight.

Adam smiled as Heather finished the end of her letter."Do you have your own owl?"Adam asked her..."Because I don't ...I don't even know if I should give this to my parents, I'm basically gloating in their faces in here...They probably won't even respond to me...Oh well, what do you think?"

Heather shook her head no. "I don't have my own owl, although we have loads of family owls." She answered. "but, we can use the school owls to send our letters...i think you should still give your parents your letter...even if you're gloating at them...it's better to let them know you're doing fine here in hogwarts."

Time for the monthly letter to Grandmother. Eirian grunted... this was the first of the series. But she had promised she would write once a month if Thiago was to attend Hogwarts with her. Sigh. She'd begrudingly follow this condition, since she was trying to stay within the lines the rest of society fit her in. Why couldn't she try to cooperate with the old hag, too? So, letter in hand, she approached one of the school letters. Her scarlet ibis was home for the school year; she had taken a rather nasty bite to the leg from Eirian's pet snake, Fino, and was still in the process of healing.

Merlin, owls scared her. For some reason, beyond her dislike of them, they would get all huffed up if she approached them. Often, they attacked her. They could smell her fear. They were demons! But Eirian was brave - the daughter and sidekick of an explorer had to be - and so she continued to inch forward, the owl staring at her and her staring back. The gaze was held until they were close. Very close. And then... owl attacked. And Eirian shrieked.

Hayley walked into the owlery, wanting to send an owl to Vanessa and her parents of course. She was going to walk to one of the owls when she heard a shriek right in front of her, and watched an owl attack a girl. Her eyes widened and she ran over, swapping at the air for the owl to calm down. It finally did and sat down back on the ledge, turning it's gaze away from them. Woah, what did this girl do to make the owl so angry?

o______O

"Is that your owl?" She asked the brunette, curiously.

Eirian looked up, ever grateful. Now someone had saved her from an owl. Oh, irony. Well, at least she wasn't being pecked to death now. "No," she murmured, her thick accent slurring the world. "It is a school owl... They do not seem to like me. Most owls do not. In fact, I think all owls hate me." Standing to her full height, Eirian brushed herself off and offered her hand. "Thank you... you just saved me from a very feathery death. I am Eirian Vaughn."

AHHHH IT'S SHORT. :O Sorry, will be longer luff. (:

Hayley laughed as Eirian said that she had saved her from a 'very feathery death'. "Well it's no problem at all. Nice to meet you Eirian, I'm Hayley Moon." She said with a polite smile. "Feel free to contact me when another moment of this happens." She said with an amused expression upon her face.

That's alright xP I'm terrible at lengthy replies

"And you," Eirian replied, smiling. This was what she needed... a new friend. Then, she could forget how she just lost one. On the bright side, her grandmother would love to hear that she was no longer friends with Jayce. How that hag managed to hate everyone but born Brits was beyond her... "I will, of course. These evil little buggers are just too sneaky..." Holding her wrists, Eirian hissed... great. The bird had clipped her, and she was bleeding all over the letter that was meant to go to the hag. Laughing weakly, she shook her head, beginning to be overwhelmed with long-awaited tears. Shaking her head, she held up the letter. "I suppose Grandmother will have to wait, no?"

Hayley smiled and nodded when needed too. She noticed Eirian bleeding and she bit her lip, digging through her purse for some wipes, gauze and whatever that thing was to hold it all together. Uhm, of course she carried this stuff wherever she went, she always got hurt. Always. She took out the wipes and wiped off the blood, and held one on her arm as she quickly put the gauze on her arm, taping it secure. "I guess I could do it the 'wizard' way but I'm not so good with healing spells. Sorry." She said simply and putting the yucky, bloody stuff in a trash can, close to where she stood.

"Hopefully you will be able to rewrite the letter soon though." Hayley said. "So what year are you in? I see that you're in Slytherin however." She said pointing towards the house crest upon her robe. She thought that Eirian would be smart enough to figure out she was in Gryffindor, but that was beyond her to know if she was smart or not...then again she seemed like it. "I'm in my 5th Year." She stated.

In the time it took Eirian to blink, Hayley was tending to her wound, and within a second later, she was finished. Well... alright. That was nice. Maybe she should keep her around! Eirian knew many a times she had need of a walking first aid. "It is okay," she replied, shrugging. "Neither am I. Thank you! I... can honestly say I did not expect that." Not at all... Oh, Hayley.

"It does not matter," Eirian muttered. "I do not like my grandmother all that much, anyway." Chuckle. That was such an understatement... "I am a fifth year as well... and you are a Gryffindor, I see." Yet another reminded of- Great. She was obsessing about him. It. AH! "What school is boarding with you all?"

She doesn't like her grandmother? Hmm, why? But she didn't know this girl well enough to ask, so she wouldn't. "Ooooh really? That's great! You can be one of my new friends! Well if you would like to of course." She said with an excited expression.

UHMM, HELLO. NEW FRIENDS WERE AWESOME.

Uhmm, whhuuuutt? "Excuse me? Sorry I didn't understand your last question." She said confused.

"It is fine," Eirian said, waving it off. "Friendly people are much more interesting. Some of my best friends are like that. Open to anyone... it is refreshing here." Not enough people were like that at Hogwarts. It was nice to meet someone different!

"I love new friends!" she exclaimed, grinning widely. "I need friends... Most people cannot put up with my accent. I can get very... unintelligible?" It was much easier in Brazil. No one questioned her voice... only her abnormal ghostly appearance. "Well, Slytherin has Beauxbatons staying with them, and I have heard about Durmstrang staying with both Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, but I do not know if that is true... Who is staying in Gryffindor?"

"Haha great!" Hayley said with a big smile. She liaked this girl already, she was SUPPPPPPPERRRRRRRRR nice! "Wait, what? I LOVEEEE your accent! It's awesome! Where exactly do you come from?" She asked curiously. She loved people who had accents, then again she sort of envied them because they did have one. Mehh.

"Uhm, I'm not sure, what you mean." Hayley said with a confused expression. What was this girl talking aboutt?

"Brazil," she answered, nodding enthusiastically. How she loved her home... "I lived there since I was eleven... My father wan an explorer, so he let me stay there in an apartment in Rio. I went to school there, but I had to move here last year... So all I have left of Brazil is my accent and my boyfriend, who is attending this year." But, of course, that would be enough for her. Thiago made everything perfect. "I miss it very much, but just having someone to talk in Portuguese to makes it not as bad."

"There are not visitors staying with you?" Eirian asked, surprised. "I have Beauxbatons invading my dormitory... they irk me very much."

Melanie raced up the stairs leading to the owlery, a bounce in her step. Clutched in her hand was a small package, wrapped clumsily in newspaper and tied with a big, bright yellow bow. Attached with spellotape was a folded letter. In big blocky Melanie letters on the front it read "FROM ONE BADGER TO ANOTHER"... and underneath that written smaller was "To Miranda Belcanto of the Holyhead Harpies" Inside, it said...

SPOILER!!: letter
Dear Miranda,

Hey! So... I'm not really sure if you'll get this. I bet you get a lot of fan mail, yeah? Cause' you're like a famous quidditch player now. For the Holyhead Harpies. That's right. I know things. I do. Is it nice? Is it easy? Do you miss us? Wanna come back to Hogwarts?

Only kidding. Wish you were though. I had to bring my own supply of chocolate to school this year since there's no quidditch. Did you know about that? Since the Triwizard Tournament is going on we don't get to play quidditch. It's not fair. I thought about filing a complaint, but I decided against it because... Well, no one's going to listen to me anyway. Hopefully we'll still have Quidditch lessons, though, so I'll get a chance to at least get on a broom. If not I will surely die and waste away from… something. Quidditch deprivation?

The tournament has a high death toll, from what I've heard. I hope no one dies. You don't have to worry about me, since I'm fifteen days to young to enter. You heard me. I missed the deadline by ONLY FIFTEEN DAYS.

Whatever though. I don't think I'd want to be champion anyway... Though it would have been kind of nice to enter, just so I could say I did. If that makes any sense. Anyways I suppose the tournament might be kind of awesome anyway. It’s sure to be exciting… And nerve wracking at the same time. I’m glad they’re holding it while I’m here. It’s something I can ramble about when I’m old and wrinkly to unsuspecting grandchildren. Everyone needs a few of those stories, I think.

I hope you’re doing well… do you have lots of money? Do you have a boyfriend? Are you still the same old Miranda? Do you remember me? How are you? Tell me stuff, please!

Love,
Melanie Lockhart

P.S.- The chocolate is for you, not the owl. Enjoy... And please don't let him have any. It makes him even more hyper active than he already is.

Her owl flew down from his perch when she entered, flying little circles around her head and pulling a few strands of her hair out with his beak. After a few moments, Bugle calmed down and seated himself merrily on the window ledge, with a little hoot! of approval. Clearly, the elf owl was happy to see her. Melanie smiled slightly, patting him fondly on the head. She only hoped the load of the chocolate frogs wouldn't be too much for him to carry.

Gently, she tied the parcel to the foot of her bird. "Take it to Miranda kay', Birdy? And no chocolate on the way." she ordered, waving him off. Bugle fluttered out the window, sinking a little at first, and then climbing determinedly up into the air. She watched until he vanished from her view, and then Melanie turned.

She climbed swiftly down the stairs, smiling to herself.

She said with a big smile upon her face. YUSHH, she found Jayce's best friend that he said helps him with girls. "So let me ask you something." She said, thinking up of the question. "Do you think I'm better for Jayce than Trixie?" She asked curiously.

"Oh you mean visitors!" Hayley said finally understanding it. "I'm not sure actually." She shrugged.

Jainie walked into the owlery, her letter to her parents about her first few days at Hogwarts clutched in her hand. She whistled to Gerry, her owl, who came and perched on Jainie's shoulder, sticking her leg out. Jainie stroked her feathers and tied the envelope to Gerry's leg. She walked over to the window and waited. With a nuzzle and a hoot, Gerry launched herself from Jainie's shoulder and took off into the light sky. Jainie watched as she flew into the distance., envying the ability to fly.

With her wellington boots on, [knee length, to cover her poor legs] Lori trudged her way from the kitchens to the Owlery, in an attempt to send two or three letters. She had two, but she needed to write another one, it was just finding a seat in the Owlery that wasn't covered in poop. Letters in her hand, she sighed as she got to the stairs leading up to the Owlery. It was so noisy up there... what were people doing, having a PARTY?! How.. peculiarly stupid.

Moving to the side a few times, to allow others to come down [she obviously felt she should have gone first, but her badge made her be nice. HMPF.], Lori was getting rather impatient. These letters were very overdue, her brother had been promised one the first day of term, not after nearly two months. But she had been so busy, busy with stuff.

Finally at the top, she attatched the letter for Donnie from her and then the one to his parents from both she and Adam, to her owl Arizona's leg. "You know where you've gotta take them. Do NOT let Donnie's parents take his letter, mmkay? He might not get it, or something. Good girl." Giving her owl a little kiss on the beak, Lori grinned and sat down. Poopless seats FTW.

I'm sorry this letter is so late, I know I promised a weekly update, but I was so not-myself for the first month of school, and Sarah told me she wrote anyway. So I figured you knew what was going on. But if she didn't mention it all, here goes:

No Quidditch.
TriWizard Tournament.
HOT Durmstrang boys. [and Beauxbatons, but I prefer the Durmstrangs.]
OLIVER is Head Boy ... O__O, right?!
The first years are scary, save me?
We're dorming with Brielle, a seventh year Beauxbatons student.
Then we also have Nikolai in the boys dorm, hehe. He's a Durmstrangian.
The Champions got announced:
Miles, Raiden, CAMMY! and some Duncan dude, I have yet to meet.

I wont spend this letter telling you how upset I feel, and lonely, because I want you to be enjoying your time! Are you? Is it fun? Have you met any HOT players? Of course you have. Can you introduce me? Ad doesn't like Quidditch, so I'm good, haha! Are they being nice? Do you need some glitter and stuff? Have you had to use your footspa yet?

I suppose I should probably mention that I do miss you alot, and I've attatched photos of the dorm, and the common room, and the grounds, and other places around the school. There's also one of your bed. Yes your bed, because I claimed a bed for you, beside mine. I sleep in there every few nights, so the House Elves that make them will make it pretty. Like they do all beds. I'm intending to carve our names into the bed posts soon, possibly the floor under a bed ...

I forgot to ask how you were, I think. The fumes of owl poo are probably getting to me, actually.

I miss you, and so does Sarah, she just doesn't like to show it as much as I do. Girl's a tough cookie. I do enjoy her company millions, and she's slowly becoming my best friend. I think of her as it already, but I have too many of them. She's just.. there you know? Like I can go to her whenever I need something, or I'm upset, and she'll just listen and rock me when I cry. She's amazing. I hope one day, I can be just like her. Have her energy, and positivity, and how she deals with the first years, that's just bewildering.

All my love,
[PS. I sent you some chocolate aswell, apologies if my owl eats them.]

Lorelai.

Of course she was more than sad, she was positively heartbroken, and she just wanted to curl up, and wake up a year ago. Where she had all her best friends here, and nothing seemed like it was going to end.

By the time she had finished her letter, her eyes had brimmed over with tears and a few had escaped onto the letter without her knowing, leaving a few little smudges in the pink ink. Blowing quickly on the ink to let it dry, Lorelai got out the pink, yellow and black ribbon strings ready to tie it.

Once the ink was dry, she did exactly that, pairing the yellow and black up into a bow around the rolled up letter, and then the pink on it's own, to signify it was still her here. Still the pinkpuff. "Now, Arizona, I want you to take this to Miranda, okay? Now, go. Be good! AND NO PECKING PEOPLE!" The last bit, she had to shout, for her owl had gone, and was heading into the distance now.

Oh, Miranda.

"It is really beautiful, but for most people from here very hot," she explained. "I am always cold here... my blood is thinner." And then, Eirian froze. Oh, Hell no. This was owl girl. That made sense... Urgh. Why did she have to be a decent person? Why couldn't she just hate her like she did Trixie!? "I did not like Trixie. I am... far too opinionated to say. But yes... you are a person that is nice. I suppose you would be better for him... but I cannot say. Not now."

"Yes," Eirian muttered, still put off by her revelation. A frown settled on her face... This wasn't good. But why not? It just... wasn't.

".. It's just for a few minutes, damn!" Louisa was shouting when she stepped into this 'open' chamber at the top of the tower, holding Enya's hand and literally dragging her. "See? This is my letter, I've written it few days ago and now you stand here eat your plate while instructing me how to choose an owl and direct her."

Louisa took her white envelope out of her pocket and waved it in front of Enya as she frowned. She was really not sure about writing to her mom considering the fact that her mother wasn't so pleased with this whole magic thing. However, Louisa wanted to stay in touch with her family and letters sounded like amazing right now.

She looked around looking for Jenny who was supposed to be in the owlery as well. She was sure that she gave her the right time, she could wait till Jenny show up and then they could go back to the common room.

Many owls were flying around or just standing there pecking their bodies or staying still. Louisa scanned them carefully trying to pick one that looked 'bright' to deliver such a letter to her mother.

SPOILER!!: Louisa's letter
Dear mom,
It's been a few weeks here at Hogwarts and I'm really happy. I didn't think that it'd be better than my old school but it is. I've met some new nice people, and the professors here are quite good too. The food is amazing and I like their cupcakes a lot but not as much as yours of course. I've missed you, Danny, Johnny and Jason. I hope that you're all doing fine. Give them all kisses from me and take care.

Enya tried to free herself from Louisa's grip for like the tenth time since the girl had grabbed her and literlly dragged her off to the Owerly...which was where they were now. But what she was more concerened about - other then the gashing red mark she'll have on her wrist - was trying to keep her food on her plate. A few time's she had almost dropped the whole thing all together, but had gladly managed to hold on.

"Let go of me!" She shouted at Louisa as she was finally dragged through the Owerly doors. Scowl. Finally with a free wrist she grabbed hold of her plate with two hands. She knew it was pointless to try and run for the door, specially carrying her food, so she didn't try.

Enya sat down on the floor - a clean spot! - and glared at Louisa for bringing her here and where was this 'first year' she was suppose to have to meet. Gosh not more excited and annoying people!? She asked herslef before asking her best friend, "So where's this girl then?"

Merlin. There was a stack of letters in Raiden's hands as he made his way up the stairs to the owlery; they were at least seven in number, and more than one was rather thick. He'd written a lot. Only one of them lay flat, as if the envelope were empty.

Turning them over in his hands, he shuffled through the stack, looking at each name on their fronts. His father. Emmalee. Plymouth, because for some reason poor Plymouth always caught letters from Raiden when he was losing his mind and doing stupid things. Celandine. Nico. Daphne Hopton. And a certain former professor.

Poor army of owls that would be delivering this lot. They were likely to become the victims of screaming and shaking at a few of the destinations.

The prefect, one of the newly appointed Hogwarts Triwizard Champions, reached up to where the beams of the ceiling arched down and met the wall and waited for an owl to hop onto his arm. This lot needed to be sent out as soon as possible. So Daphne could come back to Hogwarts and kill him before any of the tasks had the chance.

There was a good reason why Josephina generally avoided the owlery; primary reason was that it smelled, but also it was noisy. Trying hard not to breathe in the aromas, she stopped just outside as she observed one of the Slytherin Prefects, and one of the Triwizard Champions, reaching upward for an owl. He looked . . . frazzled, to say the least.

The brunette stood for a moment, watching, before she remembered she'd trekked up the stairwell for a reason. She needed to send her sister a letter. The older one, whom she just heard of her engagement to her Hogwarts sweetheart, despite the fact that the engagement happened two plus months ago. At least one member of her family still regularly communicated with her which would be her younger sister, Alex. As she didn't have her own owl with her, the school owls would have to suffice.

But before she could send the letter, she reckoned that someone needed a pep talk. "Prefect Kururugi? Is everything alright?" she asked in her concerned voice, despite the fact that she knew everything wasn't. "Well rather . . . i mean . . . peppermint?" Because they made everything better.

He looked . . . frazzled, to say the least.

The brunette stood for a moment, watching, before she remembered she'd trekked up the stairwell for a reason. She needed to send her sister a letter. The older one, whom she just heard of her engagement to her Hogwarts sweetheart, despite the fact that the engagement happened two plus months ago. At least one member of her family still regularly communicated with her which would be her younger sister, Alex. As she didn't have her own owl with her, the school owls would have to suffice.

But before she could send the letter, she reckoned that someone needed a pep talk. "Prefect Kururugi? Is everything alright?" she asked in her concerned voice, despite the fact that she knew everything wasn't. "Well rather . . . i mean . . . peppermint?" Because they made everything better.


At the sound of feet ascending the stairs, Raiden glanced toward the doorway, pausing in his activity of tying a letter to a particularly impatient owl. The thing stomped its foot on his arm in protest.

Ah, a professor. The boy went back to what he was doing, expecting that she'd quietly do her business while he did his. The owl took off, flying out over the grounds of Hogwarts and taking Daphne Hopton's letter with it.

He hadn't expected the professor to approach him or even talk to him, so when she did, he was... er, slightly surprised, to say the least. His arm lowered, preventing an owl from jumping onto him, and he looked at the woman.

"At the moment, Professor?" he asked, mustering half a smile. When she offered peppermint, he nodded, vaguely remembering someone doing the very same thing once before when he'd had a stomach ache. This wasn't a stomach ache, but... well peppermint couldn't hurt. "Just a bit... overwhelmed. Never had so many people tell me not to die within such a small amount of time."

They were only saying what he assumed most everyone was thinking, but... well. It didn't really need to be said, did it. Wasn't like he had control over anything. He couldn't tell them to not use dragons in a task, or anything like that. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the few letters remaining in his hands, wrinkling the edges a little bit.

Josephina had perhaps anticipated he would have wanted the quiet up here. Which is why she didn't speak terribly much, because she had her own business to take care of. And he wanted, no needed the quiet. The piece.

"Amazing, huh?" Fina mused, leaning against the wall of the owlery. "It's like... until your life is maybe at risk. Until something grand happens to you, you didn't even know people noticed you. And then, all of a sudden, it's like BAM! and you're all of a sudden the most popular guy." Rambling lesson from Fina? Totally unexpected. Not that she knew any of that from personal experience, since she generally was on the invisible side of the fence. But she could still relate.

"Look, I don't know what to tell you, except ... if you ever need a place to vent or just breath, my office is an open door."
She paused, looking meaningfully at him. "To you or any of the other champions."

Ameh 09-13-2010 04:52 AM

"You might not want to lean, Professor," Raiden murmured, gesturing toward the wall. "We are in the Owlery."

And the walls weren't exactly safe from the owls' droppings. Which was why Raiden never, ever touched anything up here. Merlin help him if he ever tripped, because it would be a disgusting mess.

"'s more like... nobody seemed particularly bothered about my doing stupid things until the second my name came out?" He managed half a grin. "What with being prefect, a lot of people knew I was around. They just expected me to be intelligent and not do something that could potentially kill me." He paused. "But I guess it's kinda like that. Lots of people who didn't bother talking to me before, suddenly popping up left and right to tell me about my imminent death."

He said it almost with an air of amusement. It was true. His existence was a lot more important to people now that it might actually end sooner rather than later.

"I appreciate that, Professor," he said, inclining his head slightly as thanks. "As it is, I've been sitting around in the dorms more than I probably should have, the last day or two. It... kinda gets boring in there though."

But it was better than being stared at, or warned against dying, or everything else. The silent room had more confidence in him than a hell of a lot of the voices at Hogwarts. He looked down at the letters in his hand, and with a frown, flattened the wrinkled edges. The one on the top of the stack read, in obviously hurried handwriting, 'Professor Truebridge'.

Oh, the poor owl that would have to deliver that one.

That made sense... Urgh. Why did she have to be a decent person? Why couldn't she just hate her like she did Trixie!? "I did not like Trixie. I am... far too opinionated to say. But yes... you are a person that is nice. I suppose you would be better for him... but I cannot say. Not now."

"Yes," Eirian muttered, still put off by her revelation. A frown settled on her face... This wasn't good. But why not? It just... wasn't.

"Oh, well I'm not sure what blood is mine." Hayley laughed. Yeah, she was definitley confused, but she liked Eirian, she was really nice. Andddd the best friend to Jayce. Hehehehehe. Okay, why that laugh?

"Oh okay. Well I just wanted to know your opinion." She said simply. It was always better if the guy you like's best friend approves of you. It always helps. Hayley noticed a frown upon Eirian's face and she arched her eyebrow. "Sorry, was it something that I said?" She asked.

But what she was more concerened about - other then the gashing red mark she'll have on her wrist - was trying to keep her food on her plate. A few time's she had almost dropped the whole thing all together, but had gladly managed to hold on.

"Let go of me!" She shouted at Louisa as she was finally dragged through the Owerly doors. Scowl. Finally with a free wrist she grabbed hold of her plate with two hands. She knew it was pointless to try and run for the door, specially carrying her food, so she didn't try.

Enya sat down on the floor - a clean spot! - and glared at Louisa for bringing her here and where was this 'first year' she was suppose to have to meet. Gosh not more excited and annoying people!? She asked herslef before asking her best friend, "So where's this girl then?"

Louisa let go of Enya as she continued to look at the owls, "Hmm.. Which one do you think I should use?" She said ignoring Enya's shout and bad mood. Well, the girl was partly right for Louisa dragged her out of the kitchen to her when she was starving.

Louisa came across a grey owl with white spots all over her chest. "This one looks cute, doesn't she?" She stroked her gently and smiled. "Would you deliver a letter for me dear?" She said sweetly. The owl didn't react at once but stopped pecking around and unleashed her wings with a wild wave.

The little girl stepped behind a bit, "Wow! That was a confident yes." SHe giggled looking at Enya who was so absorbed in her plate. "I don't know when Jenny would be here. I should just attach the letter to this lovely owl by the leg right?" She turned around to face Enya.

The owl flew and landed on Louisa's head. "Oooh! She's so friendly." Louisa giggled and reached out for the owl to stroke her while on her head. "Aah. What was I thinking when I got Kitty?" She said trying not to shake her head. She didn't want the owl to fly away so soon.

Enya didn't look at Louisa as she shrugged to the younger girl's first question. it was simple and she didn't see a reason to tell the girl what to do, she could find out herself. Enya then looked up when she had an idea, she could at least lend Ziva out to her best friend...show some....uh....kindness? She had just looked up from her plate and opened her mouth when Louisa suddenly picked a bird. Well there goes that idea. Sigh.

Enya stood up. She didn't even bother answering the question about cuteness, one look and she knew the bird wasn't as nice as Ziva was. She loved Ziva, she was the best! And the Prettiest Owl there! Eye roll. The girl was talking to the owl now! Asking it a question. Crazy! She giggled.

Enya looked over at Louisa again, rasing her eye's to the other girl's lateness. Gah! She wouldn't be here all day! She had places to be, people to see ect ect. But before she could say anything on that matter she heard her best friend asking her if it was right to put the letter on the Owl's feet? Well duh! "Where else are you going to put it?" She asked rolling her eyes.

Enya liked Kitty...well a little, and she really wouldn't know what she'd do if Louisa got rid of her and got a Owl. Even though the cat was annoying! And Owl's were better. Sigh...

It had been two weeks since Rubiey had written to her mother, and still no reply. Everyday she had trudged up the stairs to the Owlery, and scanned the katrillions of owls to see if she could find her beautiful black owl, Gabilan, anywhere in the crowd. She knew he would have come and found her if he had returned, but she still searched in vain.

Today was no different. And again, he wasn't here. She hoped he hadn't got lost, or hurt. She stared out of the giant windows, hoping to see a small black dot in the distance...

Eirian returned her smile, though it was slightly taxed now. "Nothing," she sighed. "I like you... I do. If it was my choice, it would be you... especially with the selection I know of so far." Eww. Trixie. "It is only that Jay and I had a fight... partially because of your existence?" Sigh. "For a while now, he and I have been... not well. Trixie came between us, and you know his aversion to owls... I tried to buy him one, but he would not let me. It almost feels as if he is trying to replace me because I now have a boyfriend." Ever since Thiago came to stay, it had been downhill for her relationship with her partner in crime. "I think Thiago told him some things about me that he did not like... You see, Thiago and I were together in Brazil, and before that best friends. He knows... much. A lot I left behind, a lot of what I used to be... what I was before I moved here." Before her depression, before her dad's death, before the humbleness that had been bestowed upon her by her loss, her grandmother, and her lack of knowledge of the English language. "I think he has changed since he found his mother, as well. Maybe, now that he has found her, he is angry that she left him in the first place? Maybe he now misses his father... I do not know. He will not say a thing to me."

Eirian sighed. She had spoken too much again, hadn't she? For once, she almost hoped that her accent had slurred the words into something beyond comprehension, only to leave Hayley confused and wondering why the lopsided smile had left Eirian's face. With her luck, she had probably lost her accent for that moment in time, leaving it all crystal clear and up for judgmental interpretation. "I am sorry... I did not mean to say so much," she murmured. "I only have no one to speak to about such things... Thiago does not like hearing of Jayce, you see, and visa versa."

She tried to catch her breath before standing up straight to talk to Louisa, feeling her pocket to make sure her letter to her father was still there. "Sorry I'm late." Jenny huffed.

"Hello," Jenny said timidly. She just stood there after that...how do you deal with people you shouldn't mess with? Just a single movement and the whole room would explode...

She took hold of the owl and placed her in front of her on the ground. Louisa then crouched and started tie-ing the letter... or tried to. After several failing attempts she gave up, "Would you stop eating for a moment and tie this for me? She keeps moving her leg!" This owl wasn't cute right then!

"Come down here please!" She sounded desperate. She started to jump again while talking to Jenny, "How come you're late?" She said between the hops.

Bonnie needed to send a letter.

Well, why else would she be here? Owl's scared her. She didn't want to be here but poor Vanessa would probably have a heart attack otherwise. She missed her sister. She really didn't like her sister when her sister was here but now that she didn't have Vanilla with her, and that she didn't have her mom to write to, she would write to her Vanilla. Siiigggghhhh. She patted a Hogwarts owl nervously and tied the note to it.

Haiii Vanilla,

I miss youu. You don't know how much. I honestly do. Hows you? Or should I say how's you and Patrick? -I hope you know I wriggled my eyebrows writing that part. Giggle- I'm gewd. Ma new bestie is called The Flirtinatorr (I gave him that nickname) Beck Salvatore. He is really hawt. He's got an ACCENT! But I don't see him like that. I bet you wish you were. You know why? Hogwarts is hosting the TWIWARD TOURNAMENT! And they're hunky forgein boys EVERYWHERE! Uh, you should have seen me yesturday. My friend Luna made me drink coffée. NAWT a gewd idea. You should have seen me. Anyway, that's all for now.

Love you and I'll see you soonish!
Crazed!Girl Bonnie xx


"Take that to Vanessa Campbell puleez." She smiled at the bird and watched it fade into the sky.

BanaBatGirl 09-14-2010 06:48 PM

Ohhhhh Danika.......... ;) ;)
 
Fletcher was almost out of energy when he reached the Owlery at last. Hufffffpuffffffwhooohoooo. They weren't joking when they made this castle well... a big ole castle, were they? No siree. But at least all this exercise, climbing from the kitchens to this tower, was good training for the tournament. Right? Right?!

The boy paused just outside the door to the owlery and rested his hands on his knees, catching his breath before he went inside. Never knew who would be sending out letters this time of night. As it were, he himself had a stack of about four to send. Just four though. He didn't have that many friends or family interested in the goings-on of the Triwizard Tournament.

After a moment, Fletcher regained his composure and flicked his hair back from his face. He strolled into the owlerly like he owned the place and stood smack dab in the middle of the room, dark eyes scanning the owls for one that would be worthy of Champion GlitterPuff.

Danika Malik 09-14-2010 11:32 PM

Mr. Fletcher ;)
 
Three letters. Danika was carrying three letters. And, of course, since no one was going to be here at night, then she still had the time to finish up the last one while in here.

Except, the owlery didn't seem to be free of people at all! There was one boy, you see. "Fletcher!" she exclaimed, very unlike her, but she was caught by surprise, "I mean, good evening Fletcher" she nodded, as she looked at the Hufflepuff Champion.

Well, there went her three letters, she only had two of them complete, and those will be the ones she'll be sending. She took the half finished ones and placed it in her pocket. No, Fletcher didn't see that.

"Hoe are you today?" or tonight, which ever. The girl finally entered the place in the look out for the one owl who would most likely resist colder environments.

She finally found a beautiful brown barn owl perched on the lower parts. She petted it for a while before tying the letter to the owl.

Dear Father,

Konnichiwa! Sorry for taking such a long time to reply...I had lots of things to do at Hogwarts, forgive me. I'd hate to disappoint you father, but I wasn't sorted into Gryffindor. And they don't cook, the house elves cook! (Yes, real live house elves!) I've told you many times that I'm more of a book smart person; in other words, I'm a Ravenclaw now! The food here tastes okay, but not as great as your sushi; in fact, the sushi here is not even that great in quality compared to yours. I guess that's what it means to live in Britain, far away from the land of sushi. (I love the fish and chips though!

Oh, I've already met a few people would love to meet you. A fellow Ravenclaw is a witch raised in a Muggle family and she wants to know what it feels like, being the outside one. And I've also met a Gryffindor girl who is also half-Japanese! She even knows more about Japanese culture than we do...shame on you father! Just kidding...anyways, I hope to see you soon. Take care!

Love,
Jenini

P.S. Can I get a diffferent nickname now?
"Hello," Jenny said to the owl. "Do you mind if you can send this to my father, please? His name is--" Before Jenny could tell the owl her father's name, however, the owl just hooted softly and flew out of the window with the letter tied to its leg. Jenny stood there for a while. "Wow." She blinked and stared at the window wide-eyed before turning to Louisa and...um, Enya.

And I've also met a Gryffindor girl who is also half-Japanese! She even knows more about Japanese culture than we do...shame on you father! Just kidding...anyways, I hope to see you soon. Take care!

Love,
Jenini

P.S. Can I get a diffferent nickname now?


"Hello," Jenny said to the owl. "Do you mind if you can send this to my father, please? His name is--" Before Jenny could tell the owl her father's name, however, the owl just hooted softly and flew out of the window with the letter tied to its leg. Jenny stood there for a while. "Wow." She blinked and stared at the window wide-eyed before turning to Louisa and...um, Enya.

Enya had been happly eating her food - or what was left of it - when she heard some new girl bussle into the room. Saying sorry and all to Louisa, Enya peeked up at her, concluding the girl must be Jenny. Meh. She went back to her plate.

She didn't partically want to meet the girl, she was only there after all because Louisa had dragged her there. Sigh. But then she heard the girl talking to her. She looked up at her for a moment before setting her plate on the floor next to her and leaning her head back against the wall ignoring the girl completely.

Enya rolled her eye's at her best friend's sentence. Yeah how could she forget how to send a letter. Eye roll. She sighed and watched Louisa trouble with the owl. Course she remember'd where she was. Jesus! Enya didn't respond, she really didn't see a reason to.

She giggled a little when she watched Louisa get into some trouble with the owl she had. It was a funny sight, but after a few minutes she sighed and stood up. She walked over to where the bird was and gestered for it to come down. Saying, "Come here...please"

She didn't have to wait long before the owl itself came down and rested on her arm, smiling she turned towards Louisa stroking the owl. Time for the girl to send her letter. While she was looking at Louisa she peeked at the new girl - Jenny and gave her a nod.

Jenny noticed that Enya seemed to ignore her greeting completely. Okay, so she seemed to better than what she had in mind but....she was still pretty rude. Must be the kind of person who doesn't like to talk much, but Jenny was like that too, and she didn't try to ignore people completely (unless it was someone she strongly disliked).

When Enya finally stood up and told the owl to come over, Jenny was amazed at how easy it seemed compared to when Louisa was struggling with the bird. Then she noticed something. Enya gave a nod to her! Well, for a rude person, it's great that she acknowledges Jenny's existence at least. Jenny quickly gave a nod back to Enya.

Except, the owlery didn't seem to be free of people at all! There was one boy, you see. "Fletcher!" she exclaimed, very unlike her, but she was caught by surprise, "I mean, good evening Fletcher" she nodded, as she looked at the Hufflepuff Champion.

Well, there went her three letters, she only had two of them complete, and those will be the ones she'll be sending. She took the half finished ones and placed it in her pocket. No, Fletcher didn't see that.

"Hoe are you today?" or tonight, which ever. The girl finally entered the place in the look out for the one owl who would most likely resist colder environments.

Fletcher was in the process of tying his first letter onto an owl's leg when he heard the owlery door open. He wasn't expecting anyone up here at the moment and was so startled when he heard his own name that he almost dropped the little light gray owl out the window prematurely.

"Danika!" he returned the greeting, finishing tying the letter with a little flourish. "Off you go," he said to the owl and shooed the grumpy bird out the window. He dusted his hands off and turned around to speak to the girl.

"I'm doing well.... how are you? Been preparing for the first task?" He quirked a brow with the question.

Danika Malik 09-16-2010 03:06 AM

He was sending letters as well. "For your family?" she asked, eying the owl which just left.

The boy was probably letting them know about the Tournament? Most likely, or not, these kids in Hogwarts seem to send plenty of letters for no particular reason. Strange.

"Fine" she said, with a smile on her face. Now, which owl? Which one can go through the coldest skies. A smirk grew on her face as he asked a question, "For every task, Fletcher, not just the first one" there was a nod somewhere in there before she spotted a black owl that will most likely do the trick.

"Have you?" she asked, eyebrow slightly raised, "Been practicing any spells, or potions, or just plain exercise?" because getting up here was quite some exercise. And one of the three two letters was safely tightened to the owl, before letting it go.

She then spotted a gray one. Huge one. That one will go farther north. "I vonder, is Fletcher your first or last name?" she asked, tilting her head to one side, the now-worn-loose dark red hair cascading to that one side.

Because she paid little attention to the Goblet of Fire after her name was said.

Louisa was still hopping and ordering the owl to come down angrily... literally angry at the little bird. Soon, Enya moved herself and helped Louisa who clapped excitedly, "That was awesome! You treat them naturally Enya!" Then Louisa stroked the owl asking her to send the letter to her mother.

Few seconds passed before the owl obeyed the girl and flew away. "Let's hope mom doesn't freak out." She mumbled before turning back to her friends. Uh Oh. Enya was acting kind of 'coldly' to Jenny. Typical.

Louisa smiled 'too' widely to Jenny, "So, Jenny this is Enya. Enya this is Jenny. Enya's a second year and Jenny's a first year like me." She giggled nervously trying to smooth the atmosphere a bit.

"So, Jenny to whom did you send your letter?" It was the stupidest question Louisa could come up with but she really needed to start a conversation.

After she had got the Owl to obey, Enya had moved to the side of the room and watched the two girl's. She really didn't want to be here, but really had no choice. Sigh. She ignored all of Louisa's words. Duhh course she was good with bird's, she owned one. She shook her head.

Looking up when she was introduced, she nodded her head again, showing no smile or anything. She leant back, best get all this over with. She thought as she looked over at the girl's again. "Hello" She said quitely.

To Aiden
 
Sadie had to hike all of the way from the low Slytherin icky dungeons ALLLL the way up to the owlery. That was something not person should ever attempt when they're wearing six inch heels. Her feet were aching when she got to the top and she had to catch her breath before continuing inside. Phew. That was her exercise for the day. She fixed her hair which was braided to the side and carefully folded the pink piece of paper in her hand. It was marked to here grandparent's who lived in Texas right now.

Her mum was making her write to them. At least mam-ma bought her pretty things and gramps liked to ride out in the wild west with her. Speaking of west she forgot she was going to California over Christmas break at some point. YAY! She got to see the Cali boys all over again.

Aiden trekked on up to the owlery. It wasn't far from the common room - his common room, that is - but he had come from the Great Hall, so by this point he was bored of moving staircases and creepy paintings; he just wanted to send this letter to Pat and be done with it. He found his good old buddy Archimedes and gave him the envelope. "To Patrick Dubois, buddy." He gave him a pat or two on the ruffled-up owl's back before the bird flew off out of sight.

SPOILER!!: To Patrick Dubois
Hey Patrick,

Good to hear from you! Yep, those were the days. Hah. It's weird not having you around Hogwarts, but I hope those Durmstrang kids are keeping you on your toes. You're right about the Tri-Wizard Tournament. I think our selectees for Hogwarts are Cameron Caddock, Raiden - the Slytherin prefect, and.. well, I actually can't remember the other two! I'm pulling for Cameron, but as long as Hogwarts wins, I'll be happy.

Sweet! I'm glad to hear that you and Vanessa are still going strong; you guys are basically made for each other. I bet it's hard not getting to see her that often, though. Well, things with Ella.. aren't so great. We split up. I just like her SO much that it freaks me out, so I broke it off. So, yeah.. I'm getting back with Savannah and I know that'll be safe place to be. Hopefully she doesn't go dumping cups of glitter on me, though. ;]

Hah, I hope I don't see much of Healer Moretti, but I'll give her your regards whenever I bump into her and her mega-piercing eyes. She'll be oh so glad to hear from Diaper Boy. I'll say 'hi' to everyone for you, and you do the same with Vanessa.

Oh - and don't mention N.E.W.T.s. NOT looking forward to those. hahah.


Aiden


Just after Archimedes flew on out, he heard someone approaching from behind. Aha, Sadie. "Hey, Sadie." His eyes lowered to her shoes. Heh. If she walked up all those steps in those, this girl was crazy.

Ellieeenator 09-17-2010 01:07 AM

Sadie was trying to find the perfect owl to use when suddenly she heard a voice behind her and stumbled slightly in her very high heels. Whoa. She had to catch her balance whilst turning around to see who her caller was. "Oh..hi Aiden," she said with a small smile. She looked to see his owl fly off and could only assume what the letter may be.

"Do you have any preference on one of these owls who won't bite and can fly a distance?" she asked him. Like over the sea distance. Actually one of these messenger owls would carry it to a post office in some muggle place. Then it would reach her grandparent's.

Team ronmione 09-17-2010 01:41 AM

Adam walked into the Owlery and got out a piece of parchment. He waited for Kurumi before starting. They were gonna brainstorm how to talk to this Alex person without revealing too much or putting Adam nor his family or friends in danger. He flicked his feather up and down, out of pure boredom...What was he even gonna write about....

Aiden returned the smile, then averted his eyes back to the owls. Oh. He didn't really use any of the other owls, seeing as his seemed to do the job just fine. Maybe a little slower than most owls because his was a spaz, but yeah. "Sorry, I don't have a clue." He gave an apologetic shrug. He turned to face the birds, then gestured to some gray one to his left. "That guy looks all fast and intense, though. I'd go with him." He looked back to Sadie when the owl starting staring at him for too long. Creepy..

Kurumi approached the Owlery with her letter to her family in hand. She had promised to write after she had been sorted, but in all the excitment that had been going on...had failed to do so. Her mother was probably worried sick and she was surprised a flock of owls had not already come carrying letters. At least her father was calmer - he knew how quickly one could forget the time once you got involved in Hogwarts life. She saw Adam and waved. "Hey, sorry I took so long," she said jogging to his side. "I had to finish writing my letter to my family."

"Umf... kinda," Fletcher replied, busily tying his second envelope to an big barn owl's leg while he held the other two letters in his mouth. There. He carried the owl to the window and bid the bird farewell as it flew off into the night.

Taking the letters out of his mouth, Fletcher approached Danika and watched her interact with the owls. Huh. "Oh yes," he nodded enthusiastically. "Mostly I've been working on the exercise bit. But I think I'm going to amp up the defense training here soon...."

Maybe he shouldn't be telling her that. He raised a brow at her for a moment and folded his arms. "Take a guess."

Okay, the second letter was going to be off....soonish. This owl was rather hyper, which made it difficult for her to make sure the letter was safely tied.

Danika laughed, without looking at the Champion. Just the exercise? "Feel free to indulge in procrastination and never practice" she said, eyes on the boy now, and a little wink. It worked to their advantage if he never practiced, unless he was naturally talented. Then again, they were all naturally talented.

What? Danika straightened herself, apparently the owl was now becoming even more difficult.

Her head tilted towards the boy, but her eyes were on the owl. "I say last, vecause 'Fletcher' as a first name is odd, then again, I think it vould ve an interesting name to have" given the fact that her own name was quite common in her country.

She eyed him for a moment, deciding to let the owl grow accustomed to the fact that it will be sending a letter far away from Hogwarts. "Vhat is your first?"

Kurumis hair starting turning rose pink again. She really needed to do research on this in the library...or maybe talk with the Transfiguration professor.

He flicked his hair back from his face and selected a tiny, snowy white owl to deliver his third letter. Fletcher didn't speak for a moment as he busied himself with tying a dainty little bow to the owl's leg and then he carefully bid it farewell out the window.

He turned around and saw her eying him -- not that he wasn't used to such looks from the ladies. ;] "It.... is my last name...." he admitted slowly. "But I really hate my first name so you won't get it out of me that easily."

Fletch shook his head nope, like mum's the word.

Cass entered the owlery with a roll of stationary parchment and her pot of green ink. It was cold up here, and for once, Cass wished she had decided to wear leggings under the green skirt that she had put on instead of her uniform. But, she was already here, so going back to the common room would be counterproductive. She placed her things on a windowsill and sang softly as she waited for her own to recognize the song. As usual towards the end of her song her owl, Cygnus, came swooping towards her arm.

"Hey there darling..." Cass said as she ran her hands over Cygnus' black feathers. "I want you to deliver something for me...alright?"

The owl merely hooted in response as she placed her (the owl) on a perch while she wrote her letter.

Quote:

Dear Father and Mother,
I apologize for not being able to write in a while. I had been preoccupoed by my studies. Things at Hogwarts are wonderful. And no need to fret, I have been in my best behaviour. I met two girls in m house as well, they mean quite a lot to me. Their names are Feenella “Fee” Schwarzberg and Freya Salvatore, Both purebloods of course. As you may have already heard, the Tri-Wizard tournament is being held here once again. Yes, I shall be careful.

I look forward to seeing you again.

Sincerely yours,
Ara Cassandra “Cass” Prewett

Then she fastened the letter to Cgynus' leg with her customary green ribbon with the Prewett family seal. "Go on, take it home."

Then she watched as the owl flew off and she sighed.

Kurumi wrinkled her brow a little as she thought. "Well, this person doesn't want you to ask about their last name, so I don't think they are going to tell you exactly how they know you or your family," she said as she thought aloud. If she were said mysterious person, she probably would't reveal that information. "What I am wondering is why they are choosing now to write to you? Do you think it has something to do with you going to Hogwarts?"
