anyone...
 

I think I forgot to tell you I posted. >_<
 

Oh, yes she did.

Evelyn had a HUGE problem and Destiny knew EXACTLY what it was. It was the thing that caused them to fight in the first place. The thing that caused them to become ENEMIES. It the thing that, right before she had made her way to the great hall, she had stuffed into her mouth. It was chocolate!

Rolling her eyes, for dramatics, of course, Destiny unfolded her arms and then refolded them. Just to make a point. "You're my problem!" A huge problem, in fact! Unfolding her arms once more, she leaned over the table some to whisper. "And I ate chocolate before I came up here."

How could Marie possible ask her that? Mia thought it would be obvious. "Yes silly because everything will be out in the open. You won't have the nagging little voice in your head saying, 'should I tell him or not.'" It's the reason why she was so happy all the time.

Oh Merlin! Mia hoped that she was not going to regret this. Marie had a wild gleam in her eye and it looked at little scary. Have you got any sort of idea?" Maybe they could play knock and run on the Professor's office doors. "I doubt Evelyn would want to and Destiny would totally get us into trouble, especially if she's had chocolate."

"YO-HO!" Lola called out, delighted as ever. It was as if food was the most important thing right now (wasn't it always?) because when they reached the table, she immediately grabbed the very first things she could find and gobbled it down her throat. "Bread! HOW BORING! Oh look a--a," she stopped dead in her tracks, holding her face in surprise, "a bowl of mash!" The nostalgia! The horrible nostalgia! "Leave it be, bloody mashed potatoes ought to reek in Davy Jones'!"

Suddenly, her face was itchy.

It was as if... there was something to be there. There, but missing.

Hmm.

The girl started feeling her own cheek, and then in a sudden rage of anger, got the bowl of mash and threw it down the table! "THAT'S WOT IT DESEEEERVES AAAALRIIIIIGHT!" She called after it. She mocked it. She taunted it! Oh the mash was crying now, wasn't it? Lola cackled, "HAHAHAHA! Let's eat up, now! Me tummy! It's screaming with passion!"

There, she started eating, and innocently stealing much of Sierra's food as well.

"Arrr, bucko! Ye make me hang the jib!" Sierra fussed. "Blimey!" Yet as she said this, she sat down for her own meal. She eyed the group at the Gryffindor table, as if they, too, might either make a grab for their stash of food--or worse, their booty! She snatched a roll right out from under Lola's face, eating it within seconds and then grabbing for another. As she ate this one, she noticed Vinny Boy making the rounds, going from table to table as if he might come their way next.

"Ahoy, me boon companion!" she called out to Lola. Then with her gaze on the Gryffindor table, she leaned over and whispered, "Put your deadlights ahead! Watch out for the right scallywag ahead!" She nodded in the direction of Vindictus and his gang.

After making sure that Captain scallywag and his crew of blind bandits has left the fifth floor Salander made his way down the castle and entered the Great Hall. Aye still be needin' t'keep an eye on them he thought as he spotted that Captain gorging himself by the Ravenclaw table, with half his crew on the opposite end at the Lion's den-- joined by one of his own. Aye jolly Boatswain, spyin' up close on enemy territory. He then shifted his attention back to the Captain and for a while considered to sit himself directly across as he breaks bread. But then he spotted his own mateys close by. Aye better to stay by their own turf

He takes a seat next to Lola and Sierra, but still almost directly across from Vindictus at the Ravenclaw table. Taking his share of the pot roast he trained an eye at the Captain before he turns and glances at his two mateys having their fill. A smirk crosses his features "Ease up mateys, enough to go around fer all 'f us.... unless they be thievin' our meals too". Glaaaaare across the Great Hall.

Sierra jerked her head in the general direction of the staff table. "Blimey!" she exclaimed. "Me Jack o' Cups!" She looked to Lola and Salamander and then pointed toward the staff table. Vindictus and his gang appeared to be taking over the big ship--err, the staff table--right before their very eyes! "Deadlights ahead!"

...and then she took off for the staff table.

Marie thought about what Mia was saying. She really didn't see at first how she could feel any happier than she already does when she was with Matty... until she thought about how she felt when she had almost told him she loved him. Once again Mia was right. She didn't like the feeling she had then. She wanted to tell him how she felt. She wanted to tell him that she loves him... and she wanted to tell him NOW. "I think I'm going to take your advice Mia. I'm going to tell him exactly how I feel." Taking a drink of water she stood up. "I'm gonna go find him now and tell him." She started to walk away then came right back.

Leaning over she gave her friend a hug. "Happy birthday and thanks for everything. Meet me in the entrance hall after dinner tonight and we'll go cause some trouble... just the two of us. Then I can tell you how things went with Matty." She was pretty sure she was going to be in a great mood later tonight and have lots of good things to tell her friend.

Standing back up she gave a quick glance around the Hufflepuff table just to make sure Matty wasn't there. Not seeing him she quickly made her way to the door. Now, where would that boy be?

Ichaaaa!
 

Helena was bored.

Worse than that.

Since it was still very cold outside, she didn't want to wander around the grounds either. Nope, she didn't want to catch a cold. So there she was, sitting at the Slytherin house table, with her head propped in her palm, the elbow on the table, almost falling asleep. The girl was also calculating some things from the textbook, since she was a natural disaster at Arithmancy.

Selina was running late. Her darn alarm clock never seemed to work. Now Elektra was bound to already be off and out doing Merlin knows what on the Grounds. The two had made plans to spend the day together provided Selina showed up at the right time to meet her best friend. Scanning the Slytherin table she saw no Elektra in sight. She let out a sigh and plopped down on the bench. What was she going to do now?

The little Gryffindor looked very out of place in the sea of green. But she put her head in her hands. Ugh she was so dumb! Elektra was going to be so mad when she saw her later.

Entering the Great Hall was always one Desmonds favorite places. Food. Who didnt love it? Stuffing his hands in his pockets, he entered it and gave a look around. Damn, noone he knew was here.

Seeing a girl sitting and looking towards the Slytherin table, he slit his eyes and walked over to her. Sitting infront of her, he put his arms on the table roughly and stared at her with what he hoped was menacing eyes. "Why you looking over at the Slytherin table?"

Selina jumped when she heard two hands slam down on the table. Looking up she saw a Slytherin looking dead in her eyes with a look she only assumed was what he was trying to pull off as menacing. It wasn't working. She laughed a little and said, "It's a free country. I can sit here if I want and if you continue to invade my bubble I am also at liberty to hex you."

She got a good look at the boy then and noticed she had never seen him before in her life. Who was he? Crossing her arms and sitting back a little she shot him a smirk, "I'm Selina and I don't think I've ever seen you before. Are you new?"

Desmond's eyes slit more but he couldnt help but laugh. He was no good at playing the mean guy. He only got sorted into Slytherin because of his dark heart. The only reason his heart was dark was because of his dad.. that mother...... gah.

"Im Desmond. Ive been around. Maybe you were just unlucky enough to not know me." he said nodding matter-a-factly.

Selina extended her hand as she laughed with him, "Pleasure to meet you Desmond. I'm Selina Skylar, Gryffindor obviously," she gestured down to her robes and smiled, "What year are you in Desmond."

Shaking her hand, he nodded. "Slytheirn of course. I wouldnt be sitting here if I wasnt. Your brave to be sitting here. Guess thats why your in Gryfindor huh?" he said with a smile.

"But yeah Im a fifth year. Im surprised you havent seen me around. I'm kinda big stuff around here." he said matter-a-factly.

" "Brave? I know a few who would say I'm more hot headed than brave. Actually most people in your house would thin that. I'm a feisty little ginger," she replied wiggling in her seat proudly.

"Really? I've never heard of you before," she said coyly, "You can't be that important."

Freya was hungry. She just ate like two hours ago but now she already starving. Instead of going to the kitchen, the blonde thought its better to go to the great hall instead.

She entered the great hall and rushed towards the Slytherin table. "Hi. Mind if I sit here." she asked one of the Slytherin girl who seems like doing her homework or something.

Alright... Helena's eyes were about to close...

"Hi," the girl said quickly, as another Slytherin girl approached her. She instantly straightened her back and her head was not resting anymore on her palm. "Of course," she smiled, then scooted a little bit so she could sit.

Hmm Helena thought she knew her... somehow. Oh! She played Quidditch last year, didn't she? Or... not? Anyway, it would've been probably rude to start a conversation like that.

"I'm Helena, by the way." HA! She didn't forget to introduce herself this time! Because she was kind of forgetting all the time.

Freya had to hold her urge to giggle when she saw the girl quickly straightened her back. It seems that she's wrong apparently the girl didn't engross with her book it looked like she's bored with it.

"Thanks." she said and sat down next to her.

Helena? That name sounds familiar. Where did she hear it? Oh yeah. Last year when Professor Lafay announced their house points or something. "Nice to meet you Helena. I'm Freya." she gave the girl a smile. "So what are you reading?" she asked eying her textbook.

"It's nice to meet you too," Helena said with a smile, as Freya took a seat next to her.

Hmm reading? Maybe sleeping on. Hehe. "The Arithmancy textbook," the girl said, taking a quick glimpse of the book. "I was trying to calculate something, since I'm pretty much terrible at this," she laughed, but closed the book. She didn't do much anyway, since she was about to sleep on the book.

"Anyway, how are you?" Helena smiled, feeling grateful that Freya joined her. She didn't want to think about Arithmancy anymore.

Freya couldn't help to show her dislike when Helena mention about Arithmancy. Why the girl was reading that book while sitting in the great hall was beyond her. "Meh. I never fond with that subject too." Fond? Try hate.

"I'm doing okay just a little bit hungry." she hoped that Helena didn't hear her stomach growled like mad that would be really embarrassing. "And what about you?How are you?" she asked.

Helena giggled as she noticed the look on Freya's face when she heard her talk about Arithmancy. Well... it must be an interesting subject... but since Helena was a natural disaster at it, it wasn't so interesting anymore. But she'll get better... eventually.

"I'm" almost falling asleep "good," the girl said, smiling. "But I suppose I should eat something as well." What was the time, anyway? She had no idea, but there must've passed some hours without her noticing. "Do you think there's some pudding left?" She asked, looking around the loooong table. And she wanted chocolate pudding. That was her favourite.

" Has anyone seen a girl named Fee?" William asked politely to the students at the Slytherin table.

For Jess <33
 

It was february, and Iris still hadn't found a comfortable routine. Her head girl duties stressed her out a lot; Aaron seemed like he was getting too involved in Quidditch again; and Jimbo and Fallon always seemed to just not be around. Oh, and she REALLY missed Wesley, Satine and Trixie. It wasn't fair. hmpft. But right now there were more important issues. Iris was hungry. Really, really very hungry. All this planning and such with the Prefects does that to you.

Making her way into the Great Hall, Iris strode to the far end of the Slytherin table, to her usual seat. The blonde pretended that she didn't notice that brunette girl glaring at her as she passed. She sat at her usual spot, and picked up a ham sandwich from the platter. Eyeing the girl, Iris noticed that she seemed to be letting her eyes wander everywhere. Iris stood up, and walked over to her part of the table. She took a bite out of her sandwich as she did so. "You okay, kid? You seem to be very... frowny."
