I kid you not, this is one tree you don’t want to mess with. It's best you keep a safe distance from the Whomping Willow’s tree limbs or you may end up with a few broken limbs yourself.
"Nice to meet you Erin!" Rosalie smiled at the girl she didn't know any Ravenclaws but Erin seemed very nice. "I was just heading back up to the castle, no big plans or anything. You seemed like you were in a rush until we collided, what were you up to?"
Oh, she seemed sweet. Sweeter than the chocolates Nanny Lisa gives Erin when she's sad. She waved her wand, there conjured an apple in a color of a fiery red. Of course, it isn't a real apple. Food is the first exception of the Gamp's Law of Elemental Transfiguration. She offerred Rosalie the apple. She's her friend now. She loves making friends. "Here." What's that for? That would probably be Rosalie's response. She smiled.

"Aww thanks, this is really it looks extactly like an apple expect for the fact you can't eat it!" Rosalie giggled. She was really impressed. "Just one question why di you conjure and apple for me?" Did this mean they were friends? Rosalie defiently hoped so.

She knew it. Rosalie would asked her why. She laughed on how she guesses people's thoughts. "Friends?" said Erin smiling sweetly. Puffy cheeks she has. She moved swiftly at Rosalie's back. "Someone's chasing me." She was holding two wands, one hers and the other was her friends. Rosalie would surely have notice it.

"Awesome! I think its cool to have friends in other houses." Rosalie laughed "I guess thats a good reason, are they still after you because we can keep running if you want?" Rosalie could tell this girl had a good sense of humor and would be pretty great friends with her.

Different personalities clashing would be interesting. Erin's got witty friends from her house and loyal friends would be a great addition on her circle of friends. Sweeties like Rosalie have a special place in her heart. She tends to avoid those who would lead her on the wrong direction. No dropping of names.
From behind, she leaned her face toward the Hufflepuff's ear, "I got my friend's wand," said Erin jokingly. Looking at the other students a little far away from the Whomping Willow, Erin looked at it with great reverie. And...
"Rosalie," said Erin without looking up to her friend, "Have you noticed that thing below the tree? Weird."

"Yeah, that is weird. I wonder what it is, I've heard rumors but they of course aren't true." Rosalie looked at her friend wondering if she knew what it was. She thought it was cool to have a friend from Ravenclaw, she hope that Erin didn't think she was a bad person because Ariana was in Slytherin.

Rosalie knew something about it. "Are you Pureblood?" squealed Erin. A Muggleborn wouldn't know rumors about a magical tree, swishing and flicking its trunk, which brings danger to anyone who pursues anywhere near it. Getting really eager to know what is she talking about, Erin added quickly, "What are the rumors?"
However, it was right below the trunk of the tree and going there would mean a major injury on either part of your body. No student ever tried to go beyond the reach of the Whomping Willow. Could they?

Jory brought out the Pygmy Puff, Archie, to the Willow. He was ready to try out the Hate potion he had brewed in class. Right now, Archie seemed extremely happy. He was making small gurgly sounds in his tiny voice.
Jory petted the creature and the sound grew higher. He took out the phial containing the Potion, unscrewed the top and poured a bit down Archie's throat. Instantly Archie's gurgly sounds ceased and a growl much like a dog replaced it. "Uh oh,'' Jory thought staring at the Pygmy Puff.

''Hey,Your's pointing at the Pygmy Puff.''What are you doing down here next to the Whomping Whillow.Do you have an owl?

Jory continued to stare at the Pygmy Puff as it growled even louder. He thought he saw some thing flash in Archie's eyes as they turned red. Jory realised that 'something' was pure hatred.
Suddenly, Archie jumped from Jory's hands and onto his face! Before he could do anything to defend himself Archie started to whip his face with it's long tongue. It didn't hurt much except for a little sting.
Jory tried to grab Archie but Archie was so fast and agile that Jory missed everytime. He desperately wondered how to stop Archie.
Adelyn raised an eyebrow at him. He was laughing? That certainly didn't fit the moment, but then again, nothing they were doing really was standard to the rules of relationships.
She was so aware of his closeness, his touch; every fiber of her being knew of it. But it still wasn't enough for her. She wanted him closer. Looking up at him, she couldn't help but giggle. His laugh was irresistible. She really didn't even know why they were laughing, they just were.
Glancing down, she found herself staring at their pinkies locked together. When she looked back up, he was staring at her, and she couldn't help but grin as he did so. The way he looked at her...it just made her feel special, wanted, cared for. Amazing. He was something amazing. Truly.
She felt him move his hand over her's a tiny bit more, and when he did, every one of her nerves screamed with joy. Her breathing caught short, but she didn't even care.
Adelyn moved her hand a few more inches into his.
There we were, laughing. I don’t know why we were laughing, I guess I started it. Oops. But I didn’t want to stop. Mostly because her tinkling laugh was captivating. Did most people do this? I didn’t think so.
Slowly, eventually, we stopped. Or ceased. Is there a difference? I don’t know. My mind really wasn’t really working, seeing I was asking myself the difference between ‘stop’ and ‘cease’. Or maybe I was just a bit distracted. Hm…
Anyway.
With a brief struggle, I returned my attention to the beautiful girl sitting in front of me. Well. It wasn’t really a struggle. It was actually really easy. And pleasant. UGH. I was having trouble straitening my thoughts. FOCUS. Nope. Not gonna happen.
She moved her hand on mine a little more. I moved mine farther over hers. I felt like a really cheesy guy in a love story. Pfft. I wasn’t cheesy. I was anything BUT cheesy. Heh.
Then, suddenly (a lot of sudden things were happening), I really wanted to do something. With her. What? I don't know. We'd figure it out. Right? "Hey...wanna do something?" It was a simple question. I wasn't implying anything. Maybe we'd go for a walk? Pick apples? If there were any apples to pick. Somewhere quiet. I'd like that.
Jordan strolled out in the sunshine, keeping a fair distance from the whomping willow. He sat down on the grass and looked up at the magnificent tree, he felt good because the first T.O.P patrol had gone well enough.

After the fiasco at the Great Hall, and later the fiasco in the Common Room, Scott was relieved to be in peace and quiet for once.
He looked across and noted in his diary how beautiful the tree was, and dropped a tear into it to preserve the memories of that day.
And what a day it had been!
He spotted Jordan sitting on the grass and moved over to him, careful not to get too close to the tree. "Hello Jordan!" Scott smiled as he walked over to him.

Jordan looked up to see Scott walking over to him, "Hey Scott, how's your day been?" he asked, the other boy looked slightly bothered about something, "You okay?"

"How's my day been?" REALLY? He laughed at the mere thought his day had been good. "Well, I got a pie thrown in my face by a fifth year, and got administered a hate potion by Jez" he frowned slightly, but not at Jordan.
"Yeah, I suppose so, but what's strange is how it happened" he gazed into the distance.

Jordan grinned, "that pie took ages to get out didn't it?" he smiled, "Jez? That's the other girl who was enrolled into the T.O.P wasn't she? Did she do that for homework or something?"
"Okay, strange how what happened?" Jordan asked with a puzzled look, was he missing something?

Scott sighed whilst looking across the vast landscape. "I don't know"
The potions homework? Was that it? Go through it? Yawn.
"I got into the common room feeling really happy, and she asked me if I wanted a Chocoball from Hogsmeade" pondering WHY she didn't tell him about the potion, he continued. "Naturally I accepted" he smirked. "And then I started screaming at her, that is until Nate and Pam turned up"

One day after Quidditch practice Vashti decided to wander around the grounds for a bit. She'd taken a shower in the locker rooms and it wasn't too cold outside since she was dressed pretty warmly, so why not wander around for a little while?
So that was what she did, just wandering and thinking. It was when she found she was nearing the Whomping Willow that she decided she ought to turn around and finally head for the castle. She'd never cared much for this tree and had always tried to avoid it as much as possible. The willow was clearly dangerous, and the only way Vashti was going to get injured was by playing a Quidditch game; she wasn't going to tempt fate by getting anywhere near something with the word "whomping" in its name.

SO.. the plan was going as planned so far which was... walking out of the castle without setting any Dongbombs off! Yay! Adam and Louisa were both dung-free ^__^
"Keep your eyes open on a brown-haired, fairly tall and love-potion thief." Okay that last bit was kind of a mystery but... whatever. Louisa had the box of the bombs in one hand and she grabbed Adam's elbow with the other - if she was getting blasted off, so was he. It was only fair. HEH.

Louisa tightened her hand on her friend's arm and stared at the girl few ft away from them. "There she is. Find cover!!" Glancing around frantically as she hissed that part. Tree, tree, tree, they needed a TREE!
AHA!
She dragged the poor boy along with her and crouched behind a big boulder. "Okay, watch her for me. We're going to throw the bombs all around her." A giggle echoed inside of Louisa's mouth, she was trying hard NOT to be heard by the thief. "Watch her while I open this filthy thing." Down she sank into opening the box's lid and glaring at the dozen bombs she had, well a dozen minus the two she'd set off accidentally in the summer while packing.
He turned to watch Lexi descend the steps, his heart skipping a beat when she finally spoke to him. Something about her tone, her demeanor, her way of not looking at him in that particular way got that queasiness in his stomach to churn even worse. Pushing it aside he nodded "Sure thing Luv!" he replied, maybe a little too cheerfully. He gingerly placed his hand at the small of her back and together walked away from the stands....
Lexi might have moved out of his reach at some point as she led them down to the whomping willow... She was not really sure what had moved her feet to this spot, but here they were, just out of reach of the branches.
Turning to face him she smiled sadly and said, "How have you been lately?" Stupid of her to start with small talk, but she was not looking forward to this conversation. She remembered having been on the receiving end of it last term.

Salander followed closely, his hands now shoved into his coat pocket, the December air being a little colder in these part of the grounds. He eyed the Whomping Willow warily then focused his attention back to his Gryffincess "Busy.... confused.... tired. You know the usual." he smiled at her as he shrugged casually. Then he looked at her imploringly "How 'bout you babe? Are you alright?" he said has he reached out, thinking of tucking a few stray strands of hair behind her ear.

Lexi was all of those things as well. She take long since taken her hands out of her pockets. On her left hand she had a particular piece of jewelry that she was fidgeting with as he spoke.
Meeting his eyes full on she shook her head. "No... I'm not alright, Stradivarius. Not at all," she said as she looked away at the waving branches of the willow. She didn't move away from his touch... he could tuck her hair behind her ear if he wanted to.
"I think... I feel like I should know how you are. What has been going on in your life and vice versa. Don't you? I mean... do you have any idea what I have been up to? Is that okay with you? Do... you even mind that you don't know?" Therein was the issue. Did she REALLY mind not knowing what he was up to or where he was?

He tucked her hair behind her ear, just as he heard her say that things werent alright with her. Worry creased his face as he drew closer, and was about to ask what was wrong when she started speaking again. He blinked a few times. He was confused "Well you know whats been going on with me, doing my duties, trying to keep up with classes in between, the only other times I've ever had a chance to relax is when my head hits my pillow." he replied, wide eyed and bewildered. He peered into her face "And..... you've been busy with getting the Year Book together right? A big task isnt it, lots of things to pull together before the deadline? Or....." he trailed off, not knowing what else to say. He had his total trust in her, and it was apparent that he didnt understand what she meant by what else she has been up to.

Lexi let him pull her closer and put her arms around him as she searched his face. She loved his face. Sighing slightly she shook her head a bit. "I have been very... not busy lately actually. I already did the editing that needed to be done. I have been spending my free time with Orlando or Nicolas when he is in Hogsmeade to visit. Does it not bother you? Because... it doesn't bother me that I haven't seen you. Should it be like that? SHouldn't we want to be with one another all the time?" she asked gently.
"It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you are not."

Adam was pretty much letting Louisa run the show. She was holding the dungbombs, which Adam had silently been praying the entire walk to the outdoors that they would not be tripped and go off on them accidentally. Adam was busy admiring how successful this whole thing was going when Louisa grabbed a hold of Adam's elbow with much more force than she had been before. He hardly had time to observe the girl before Louisa was yelling in a frantic whisper to take cover, pulling him rather forcefully behind basically the only open tree that was not the whomping willow.
Adam gave a little nod and was watching the girl, not really seeing anything all that menacing about her but Adam supposed that looks more often than not could be deceiving. "So...are you going to count to three?" Adam asked, keeping his eyes on the love potion thief, but he could still hear Louisa fumbling to open the bag the dungbombs were in.
