Minerva giggled a little. "I think I have held my own without any experience."

" Oh, definately. At the same time though , you always had a third party to get between you and mediate things. " Justin said. " I was a witness to one of your incidents, remember? "

"Yes well the last time I was actually the third party. She was after my friend Nate and I jumped in front of him. I really though I was getting hexed that night."

" Wow! That sounds serious. Did it get reported? She crossed the line with that. Who got her settled down to lower her wand? "

Minerva looked down. "No it didn't get reported. I wanted to, but then I didn't want to get her into trouble either. It was very bad. There was a group of Ravenclaw fighting and she came along and started yelling at them. All of the sudden her and another ravenclaw had their wands pulled on Nate talking about which spell to use on him. I got in the middle and told her to stop. Her sisters needed her here not expelled. I think it got through, because she lowered her wand after what felt like hours."

" Did Nate tell you why they went after him? "

Amethyst nodded as she ket all of these things set into her mind. "Well, I'm glad you will stop us if we ever turn evil. It's always good to have someone be there." She giggled nodding softly.

Do you mean duct? Amy asked, her brow furrowing with confusion and a little laughter, she couldn't help it. Sammy was so confused dot com it was unreal. And silly, but she did love Sammy in a friend way and so she could work with the mistaken words. Amy shrugged, I guess she said, trying not to nod seeing as Sammy was holding her head and she couldn't nod without dislodging the plait.

No. Worse Amy said quietly, looking at the floor

Duct? Duck? It was the same difference. "Yeah, but ducks are cooler" Sammy said, frowning. It was pretty much the same thing duct was just pronounced like ducked so why not just call it duck tape, it was quicker. "either way, it's pretty damn useful" she said with a nod, tying Amy's hair up. "My master piece, is complete" she said, moving back to see it from a better angle. Damn, she should be an artist of the art of plaiting.

WORSE?! :whaa: "Did you join the Silence and now plan to kill the Doctor?" she asked, even though she was pretty sure going off at someone without her was top of the list, joining the silence was second.

Amy shrugged awkwardly, because Sammy still had her hands on her hair, I guess they are she said moderately. She didn't like ducks. Ducks scared her because whenever they saw her they turned into demons and began to chase her. And she always fell over and bruised herself, so she wasn't so much into the duck love-in. More duck hate-in for her. I agree with you on that she nodded before grinning as Sammy loomed into view, does this mean that I can move my head now?

Ah. Amy's shook her head, welllll maybe not that bad she amended, but still terrible in the history of terrible friends terrible she nodded, hanging her head

Ducks were so awesome, Sammy wanted a pet duck, not one of those crazy big ones, geese. Those were evil. They stole her sandwich once, PURE EVIL. Anything that stole her food obviously came from the deep dark pits of HELL. Could she move her head now? NO. Well, maybe. "Yeah, just don't go crazy, because it'll fall out" she said, even looking a little scared that Amy would ruin her master piece.

Terrible in the history of terrible friends terrible. That was pretty bad. Though not as bad as joining the silence or going off at someone without Sammy. "What did you do then?" she asked looking a bit confused.

Justin walked into the common room as he was pulling the wandlore book from his bag and went to sit in his favourite overstuffed chair and read his book. As he sat down he saw Minnie laying on the couch relaxing.
" Oh, hey , Minnie. Nice little party tonight. "

Minerva opened her eyes. "Oh yeah I guess. I wish more people would have showed up."

" Well, the way things have been happening I think it was better that it was small. Just a few of us. good friends ...Good times . " Justin smiled

Well, at least she was smiling rather widely now and he hoped it had been his smile AND the apology acceptance part that had worked wonders on Nessie's expression.

Treyen still nodded once more when she tried to agree with him. She still didn't believe him, right? He couldn't blame her, he'd act the same thing if he didn't know that things could get better with time. Sometimes.

Once she answered yet another one of his questions, the boy's smile just widened. Those were good news, and great indications that things could work out over the summer, resulting in Nessie coming back to Hogwarts in a much better state. Truthfully, it she felt so bad, he'd leave at once to get therapy as soon as possible. He would've caught up with lessons later on, but she was making her own decisions, correct?

Best to respect them. At least on this case.

Er, what?

That surprised him. He hadn't seen that one coming, and not the frown that used to accompany her expression before she spoke. "Thanks, Nessie." He said, nodding again. "I...think I do what I can." To be as helpful as he could be, that is.

"Your probably right." Minerva smiled. "I am tired of all the drama lately. What was up between you and William did I miss something when I left the library?"

" Well, Ya know I've been a bit on edge lately. william and I got into an arguement and it got a bit nasty and I almost pulled my wand on him. but I didn't take it out. Instead I just walked away." Justin explained. " Minnie, he thinks I'm lealous of him 'cause he's with you. He told Harvey that when I was walking away from them."

Minerva gave a weak smile from being tired. "Well you are, aren't you?" She chuckled. "Oh well if you pulled your wand you probably would have one. He doesn't seem to pay attention very well." Minerva had a little annoyance in her voice when speaking of William.

" I take it he's not a good listener with you either. Ya know something? He always comes in in the middle of a conversation and makes assumptions about what everyone is talking about. That's half his problem. " Justin said as he agreed with his friend.

Minerva shook her head in agreement. "To be honest he has been getting on my nerves lately. Maybe it's me I did this with Harvs as well. But he is so completely opposite then Harvs. He comes in the middle of conversations makes assumptions and then starts getting mad without knowing what is really going on OR in class he becomes this person I have never seen before where he is Mr. know it all and acts like he is better then everyone. He's not like that out of class when it's just us two. He is wonderful and sweet so I just don't get it."

" I think he's phony when he's with you. I've seen him when you're not around. And you wouldn't like the way he acts. Plus, I believe what Rose said about him and that other girl. " Justin said.

I won't Amy nodded, placing her left hand on her heart ...uh, brownies honour she said, slightly iffy, because she'd never done brownies and she didn't want to get eaten by the er, brown owl or sixer thing, or whatever they were.

Oh. Well. Amy stuttered. I uh, I don't want to uhm, talk about it, so yeah you were saying...errr, the silence yes Amy said, trying to squirm out of it. Stupid Amy, saying things she regretted

Minerva frowned she was feeling the same way, but didn't want to admit it. "I don't know. You don't see him when it's us. We are really good together. He has it in his head he has to act a certain way around people because of his family and the Gryffindor thing. I don't get it, but I'm not wizard born either."

Brownies honour? Had Amy even done Brownies? Probably not. Sammy hadn't, she had wanted to, for about an hour, when she was six. "I'll hold you to that" she said, even though she probably had as much as an idea of what brownie's honour was as Amy did i.e none.

NO. That wasn't how you got out of things with Sammy. "What did you do?" she said grumpily poking her friend in the arm with some amount of force. "TEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" she whined, she could be very whiney and annoying when she wanted to know something, but Amy had brought it on herself. Then she had an idea "Tell me or I'll sing"
