After she and Kellen had spread the word about all the projects they would be making in the Great Hall, she bound into the hall excited to be making her pom poms. She, of course, had lost slow poke Kellen on one of the many floors, but she didn't look the least bit disappointed by this fact. He knew where she would be. Twas all that matter.

Her bright brown eyes scanned at the supplies on tables. Pom poms! It didn't take her long to decide she would start on them, picking up a pair along with some glitter, cause she wanted shiny. Hehe.

When Ivory had seen Arya zip past her there was only one thing she could do.
Follow of course. Giggling, she chased her best friend down stairs and around corners until coming to a stop.

Her reasoning had been that anything that made Arya this excited would definitely make her excited too, and that reasoning had been right.

Smiling at the loads of arts and crafts stuff piled for school spirit, she ran up behind her friend and covered her eyes.

"Guess who?!" she asked in as low a voice as possible.

Too many options.

There was just too many colors of glitter to choose from.

Sure, Slytherin's house colors were green and silver, but she wanted more than just those two colors. She supposed that she would have to make one for the Huffie champion even if she didn't know him or get the best impression of him from Treyen. But she had to support her house. It was like, a unwritten house rule.

Thou shall support the house and housemates in whatever endeavors they chose. No mater how foolish they may be.

Right after no one of the opposite sex in the boy and girl's dorms or Masterson will get Roma on ya.

She heard someone run up behind her, but paid them no mind until her vision was obscured. "Couldn't be my favorite Claw?" She giggled. Of course it was.

Amber skipped into the Great Hall, immediately noticing the fuzzy pom-poms on a table in the back. OOO pom-poms! She walked over to them, seeing the instructions on how to make them change colors and make a sound. She immediately took two and said, "Coloro Fulgeo red to gold." Then after that said, "Intonio!" tapped the pom-poms and said as loud as she could,

"WOOOOOOOOO!"

She tapped it again, smiling. Her WOO was still echoing off the walls, which made her giggle.

Stepping into the room, JD looks around and spots art stuff everywhere. Yay! he thought. He loved making...pom poms? His eyes growing very big, he backs away slowly from that area. No way, was he making pom poms. he thought silently. He loved art and all but that was pushing it...A LOT!

Seeing another table, he smiles, backing away more, he turns quickly to the next table, which was full of beads, and string...necklaces! "Of course...for the girls to show their spirit for the champions." he mutters to himself.

Where on earth were some things to make like normal stuff, that Guys could make? Glancing at the girls that were busy at work, he didn't want to look totally dorky. Looking around some more, he spots a table in the far corner. He was almost afraid to look.

Alice never really had a reason to cheer for anything, other than when she watched tennis with her mom and dad in the living room of her house, so she was looking forward to cheering for this. She went up to the table and grabbed two pom-poms. She pulled her wand out of her holster and pointed it at them both. She wasn't sure how this was going to go...she was still a bit new with the whole spell casting thing.

"Coloro Fulgeo red to gold," Alice said confidently. She smiled at the pom poms began to change colors and thankfully the correct ones.

Alice thought for a moment. Should she give it sound? Eh...if you're going to do it might as well do it all the way Alice thought to herself. Pointing her wand at the pom poms again she said, "Intonio," waiting a couple of moments to make sure it worked before speaking, "Let's go Hogwarts!!" then tapped the pom poms again. There. Alice was good to go!

Well, in Kellen's defense, Arya moved like blazes and didn't really care if people behind her slipped and fell from rubber-necking after her. Besides, he had dignity, and he was determined to maintain it.

...wow, there were already people here. He had walked slower than... no. No it was fine.

He sent a smirk at the only other boy in the room, picking up one of the poofiest pompoms on the table, "Oh, come on. It's only embarrassing if you let it be. 'sides, no one will be looking at you, anyway."

Because most apparently, waving pompoms didn't count towards damaging his dignity.

"Its about time you got here, slow poke." Arya had removed Ivy's hands from her eyes in time to see the boy enter. How one could walk so slow she would never know. They had set up the area, posted flyers everywhere, and he still arrived after a few other students.

"What took you so long?" Tucking the pom poms under one arm, she picked up glitter in Slytherin and Hufflepuff colors. A lot of glitter. But she wanted shiny house colors. A part of her wondered if he knew. Hmm.

I would like to help all of you" Rex told the students. " HogWarts all the way!!!" Rex called out. "Sorry, did not mean to carried away" Rex said to the students there. Rex thinks to himself, those DurmStrang and BeausBaton students need a real comedown from ther rude and nasty know-it- all attitudes.

Raising his eyebrow at the older kid he shakes his head "I uh...don' think so...erm." he wasn't sure how to say it without well telling him it was weird. "I think I'll ummm see what tha' table holds." he replies nodding toward the corner.

Heading over to the table, he wonders if the kid was going to follow or play with the poofy poms. Biting back a chuckle, he didn't want to find out, lest he burst out laughing. Please...oh please, let there be something for him to do on that table. Closing his eyes as he gets closer, he peeks one eye open.

"Posters!" he exclaims, he could do those! There was silver, gold...and pink paint. Groaning, he shakes his head "There's not even a house with pink..." sighing he thinks a little. He knew just what to do! Opening the paint, he points his wand at it "Pingo Blue!" Smiling as the paint turned blue, "Perfect."

Again, no mateer how Rex wants to help, he gets ignored. " How many times must he endure this and now from the HogWarts students. " He just wants to help. " Are you sure you guyd fo not need any help?" Rex asked the students. " I thought two more hands helping vould get you done faster' Rex explained to them.

"Stuff," he answered Arya, not really answering at all. He gave her a decidedly wide berth, not really trusting the amount of glitter she had in her hands, and looked at all the other supplies on the table. Really, it was amazing that Professor Carlton had arranged all this in such a short time. Maybe she'd had some help from the house elves?

Posters. Well, fine, posters worked just as well. Kellen smiled at the other boy and kept rummaging around the table. He looked at the older Gryffindor boy and smiled, "I guess... go nuts with some posters? The more that are made, the better."

" Thanks a lot" Rex told him. I will help with the posters" Rex said excitedly.
First Poster
Lions, Snakes, Badgers and RavenClaws are the ones to beat.
Second Poster
HogWarts Students - The Real Tri-Wizards

Figured she couldn't sneak up on her best friend...Smiling she tried to disguise her voice some more.

"No it is I..." Ivory rooted around wildly in her head for a name. "Lachlan the Lanky ...?"

Unfortunately, she never found out if that rouse would've worked because not more than a few seconds later she was having a giggle fit that most obviously pronounced her to be the 'favorite Claw' and Kellen was approaching them and odds were he'd give her away anyway.

"Aw shucks well it was worth a try." Looking over her friend's items, she pointed to them obviously. "Sooooo pom pom pep squad for Raiden??? Grinning she grabbed some of the poofiest pom poms that Kellen had grabbed, and shook them in a make-shift overly-girly, very unlike Ivory, cheer.

"Gimme a R....Gimme an A....gimme as I...Gimme a D....Gimme an E....Gimme an N...What's that spell....?" Exaggerated perky smile looked expectantly at Arya for the next part....

"Sure, here make some pom-poms that change from red to gold and... stuff."
Amber shoved some pom-poms at him, grinning. "Make sure you make them say awesome stuff and... stuff. Yeah." Her grin became even wider as she watched a girl recording a Raiden support message. She wanted to shout out RAIDEN so badly, but it was obvious the girl had meant for someone specific to shout it. She shouted it in her head and grinned happily, continuing to make other pom-poms.

"Fun stuff, Kellen? What kinda fun stuff?" She waved a container of green glitter in his direction, spilling a bit on the floor. Probably stopped to talk to some girl. Hmm.

Giggling she nodded her head at the girl. Of course there would be a pom pom squad for Raiden. She was not expecting the whole show her friend put on and emitted a stream of giggles when she did a little chant.

Matching the girl's exaggerated smile, she quickly put down all the glitter she had and held both pom poms in her hands to shout. "Raiden!!!!" Pom poms shaking in the girls directions, arms outstretched.

She so could have been a cheerleader.

"Whooo!" They would've made great cheerleaders in another life.
Giggling, Ivory made another faux cheerleader-esque move and shuffled the pom poms in front of her, and followed it, of course, with a high kick and wink for good measure.

An abnormally high enthusiastic kick. One that unfortunately was so spontaneous that she hadn't really bothered to investigate if there was anyone in the very near vicinity....which as luck would have it there was. And not just anyone but none other than Kellen, who probably didn't know what hit him. Although she meant that only in the surprised sense since odds were he very much knew what physically hit him...that which was maybe painfully obvious... the pointed toe of her left shoe.

A small gasp escaped her lips followed by a choked up giggle. "Wow...I am..." Another giggle."Soooo sorry..." And she was...but well it had just become so very very obvious why in fact she wasn't a cheerleader, and well, quite frankly it was a bit funny....just a bit. "Not really coordinated for this stuff, am I?" Half hearted wave of pom pom even as she hovered to see if he was okay.

Rex points the wands at the pom poms (even though he likes his Gryffinfor colors) they need all colors for HogWarts. So again Rex points the wand at the pom-poms. he swishes and flicks the wand " Color Fuego" Yellow and Black". Rex taps the pom poms "Intonio" then Rex use the sounds " Yea, Yea" Rex taps the pom poms again. " Am I doing ok?' Rex asked all of the helpers.

Louisa walked into the Great Hall happily. She's seen the announcement in the Common Room and she was determined to decorate the banners with her own house colors ^__^

She saw that there were people before her, older people. Uh Oh trying to do that in front of older students could be embarrassing. Who knew what her wand might do? She didn't learn how to cast spells perfectly yet.

Louisa smiled awkwardly at the students and recognized Rex, "Hi Rex!" She waved quickly and saw that he already made a perfect pom pom. Gosh, I need to bring out all of the witch in me right now, she thought.

Hmm. Now the first thing is to point the wand at this thing and, "Coloro Fulgeo Blue and Silver." She swished and flicked. Nothing happened. Grrr. She cleared her throat and said a little louder, "Coloro Fulgeo Blue and Silver!" swishing and flicking while saying that. Ta da! It became blue and silver at last. A proud smile stretched on Louisa's little face.

The little girl looked over at what to do next and then tapped the pom pom and said, "Go Hogwarts!!" excitedly that she almost bounced on her heals. "What next?" And looking at the chalkboard she noticed that she wasn't supposed to say anything else before tapping the pom pom again. She tapped it quickly and let out a groan.

"Merlin! Now it's going to say 'what next' after the cheer! What do I do?" She complained looking up at Rex and the others who were there. Yeah, she couldn't spare a moment without making fun of herself. Heh.

Kellen grinned at that second poster: darn right they were.



Kellen smiled at Ivy's cheer and may have given his un-coloured pompom a shake or two. Then he gave a hop to the side to avoid the glitter Arya spilled, giving her a dubious look that clearly said he didn't think that was entirely an accident.

And then he got kicked.

Man. What was with people and hitting him lately? Did he have a big fat sign over his head declaring him as a punching bag, or something? Still, this was an uncoordinated kick, and while his hip certainly didn't thank her for it, it wasn't like it would bruise. Too badly.

"No problem." He couldn't help but give his hip a little rub, but sent a small smile her way, "I heal fast."

Kellen glanced over at Rex, glad for a distraction, "Fantastic. Just... don't start doing high kicks, yeah?"

Oooh! Art-y and Craftieessss.

Bonnie ran over to the corner, grinning widely. So... This was going to be fun. She smirked. Show your school spirit? She was so gonna enjoy this. She would make MILLIONS of stuff, for her and her friends. She LURVED art. Smiling she went over and began sketching on banner paper the turrets of Hogwarts. She began painting widely, not just once did she get smudges everywhere. Giggling with content ment she finished up the banner.

Satisfied with the banner, Crazed!Girl decided to move onto a poster for their ravvie champion. Now...what was his name again? Miles something? Hrumph. She pouted trying to think of his second name. Chewing her lip she began painting his face.

Fee got into the Great Hall.
Oh there were pom-poms.
She loves pom poms.
"Coloro Fulgeo to pink to purple."
Oh yay awesome.
"Intonio", she said,"GO CHAMPIONS!"
She tapped the pom poms a second time and smiled.
Just perfect.
Then she recognized Rex.
"Doing awesome as always", she smiled at him.

"Why don't you just use the protego spell on the pom poms now" Rex told Louisa. " Then you can re-do the spell corrextly" Rex said to Louisa. " You did good, but you can't miss anything on this spell" Rex explained to Louisa.

" I can't kick that high" Rex laughed. " I never caught your name" Rex said to him. I am Rex Trigwell, by the way" Rex told him.
Now here is another poster:
Our Lions are Brave, Our Claws are Smart, Our Snakes -Sneaky but Dangerous
and Badgers-Badge you into losing.
" Long time no see" Rex told Bonnie. " looks like you are going to have a lot of fun" Rex said to Bonnie. " just keep painting away" Rex explained to Bonnie.

"Well, you are always awesome" Rex told Fee. " Can you make my posters look really cool?" Rex asked Fee. " i think we should have glitter on my posters and maybe both of us in our house colors" Rex smiled.

"So are you",she winked at him,"we always seem to be at the same place the same time, what is really awesome."
Uh - word play.
"Ohhh, thats a great idea,Rex", she said amazed.
How good she still knew the glitter spell Savvy had told her.
She pointed at the posters and said "Gemmare"
All glittery. Perfect.
She smiled widely.
"So and how do we get us on the posters now?"
