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.

...CUE PANIC MODE.
He began to struggle underneath the other boy, thrashing his arms about and kicking his legs and trying DESPERATELY to throw him off him. "P-p-plea-se... geddoff me." He could barely manage to talk and he was DYING here. DYING because this boy was MEAN and WEIRD and TOTALLY KILLING HIM RIGHT NOW.
And he, Darwin, wasn't ready to die. Not ready whatsoever! He had stuff to learn and things to do and friends to make and he was pretty sure his Mum didn't want him dead, either. Neither would Brooke and Oskar and his Dad and... well, Emiline probably would, but she just didn't count as a person.
"The t-t-ree?" Now it was time for him to adopt a confused look, and the shock of the idea stopped him from struggling. "Bu-but.. why... why w-would I... want t-to... chase the tree?!" That was an ABSURD idea, and absolutely MAD accusation! Of course he wasn't chasing the TREE, that would probably get him KILLED.
...Well, killed faster than being sat on, at least.
Which he was still not enjoying. Dragging deep breaths, Darwin's confused look deepened. "I'm not... c-calling th-the... tree 'Paul! Th-that's my... Pgymy P-puff's name! An-and he's... running... towards the... t-tree!" And if the boy didn't get off him now and let him rescue Paul then...
Well, he wasn't sure what he'd do, since he was pinned down and couldn't exactly do much. He couldn't even imagine what Spiderman would do in such a situation, because he couldn't imagine Spiderman ever getting into such a situation. He was just a stupid attempt at being his hero right now and that was embarrassing. Maybe he was just not cut out for this Superhero business. :-(
And how this boy had ACCOMPLICES. OTHER PEOPLE who were going to keep him from Paul and hurt him some more. "N-no! EVER-YONE is N-NOT ok-okay. I c-can't BR-BREATHE. And Paul is g-going to d-die." And so was he, but he didn't focus on the fact that because he was talking (however breathless his voice was) that meant that he could totally breathe and therefore wasn't dying. No, that wasn't the case.
LOOK. PERSON RUNNING. TOWARD THE TREE. "THANK YOU. SAVE PAUL, PERSON RUNNING." Because she seemed NICE. She seemed like she really wanted to help him, and not KILL him like this other weird person and his accomplice was trying to.
"Now c-can you... geddoff... m-me?"
O__O Ella's eyes grew wide as the boy underneath Alec started shouting at her. Well he was more attempting to shout as it seemed he couldn't quite put his words together at the moment. "Calm down and take a deep breath." She said quietly, turning her attention to Sophie and the runaway puff and then back to the boys in front of her. She didn't want this other boy to pass out or something or worse, start swinging on Alec, who was still kind of on top of the boy. "He's not going to die, Sophie is good with her wand, she'll stop him. She stopped mine." Yup, Barnabus was now safely sitting on Ella's shoulder. Looking back towards the willow, Ella called over her shoulder to her friend. "Sophie, don't get too close! Use your wand if you have to!" Cause she was good with her wand and Ella didn't want her friend to get wacked by the willow which was swaying menacingly back and forth.
Looking back down again, she heard the boy plea with Alec to get off of him. Why hadn't he got off of the boy yet? Oh no! Had he hurt himself when he tried to stop the angry boy from heading towards the willow? Concern now on her face, she held out her hands to help Alec pull himself up. "Here, I'll help." Cause she wasn't mean like the boy on the ground was making her out to be.

Close enough? Yeah, well, when you say it slow like that, it's easier to get close, right? But still, Ellie didn't much like the thought of mispronouncing his name always. Even if she was always 'close enough', she'd rather have it down.
...Or use another name.
It wasn't English. Well THAT was just weird. What kind of person names their kid something in a foreign language, eh?
'John'. John was VERY English as far as Ellie knew. Very common. Very old. And Joahoo kept talking and it was getting hard to keep up with him. A lot of names at once. "Would you rather I call you Marcelo than mispronounce your real name, then?" Really, Ellie just wanted to know what to call the kid. She didn't really care about the background or language or where 'Marcelo' came from or whatever.
So Joahoo/Marcelo/whoever was a Slytherin? That wasn't too bad. The Captain wasn't terribly afraid of the Slytherin team. However, if they knew all her plays, she'd have plenty reason to fear them. "And do you play Quidditch? Know it? Care about it? Whether Slytherin wins or not?" Because she was going to have to kick him out from under her tree if he did.
Or work on super secret Ravenclaw plays later.
Joăo nodded without a hesitation. "I prefer Marcelo, yes." Because 'John' wasn't his name, his name was Joăo, quite Portuguese. He hated nicknames whatsoever. Joăo or Marcelo. No 'Joe's, 'Marcy's, no nothing but those two.
Moving on.
Joăo was startled by her sudden, almost accusing questions. He moved himself back instinctively as if expecting her to jump on him any second--and he did expect that for real for a moment. Frowning at her, he said, as much as he could remember, "I don't play it--but sure I care my house's success." His frown got deeper. He wasn't angry though, he was trying to understand this sudden outburst.
Oh. Realisation dawned on him a few seconds later.
"Will you work on your tactics and such?" Because if she was, he would sure take a peek. And he wasn't moving anywhere. If she wished, she could find some tree else.

"Marcelo, then," she nodded. It was still a funny name, but at least it seemed she could pronounce it. "You know, you should just introduce yourself as such if you're so bothered by people saying, 'Joahoo' wrong." Words of advice from Ellie Stone.
She almost relaxed when he'd said he didn't play. Only, it was absolutely impossible to when he said he cared. Shame. Why couldn't people either play Quidditch, or have no interest in it at all. Why were there people hovering around the middle. Unless, of course, they'd tried out and didn't make it. Then, she supposed, that was an excusable reason for this bi-loyalty-ness. Though, how embarrassing was that?
Will she work on tactics? Marcelo had to be kidding, right? "Not with that answer, I'm not," she said, placing a hand on her binder, keeping it closed. He wasn't going to see anything. They had to win this year, and even though she didn't think of Slytherin as the team to beat, she couldn't have them knowing her stuff, either.
Her eyes remained narrowed as she stared at the kid, anticipating his next move. Would he try and pry into Jacob's bag? Or take the binder that was already out away from her?
Or would he leave so she could finally use her birthday gift in peace?

Minerva smiled happy that someone understood. Not many did in the muggle world so that was when she began to hid it, she still hid it most of the time here as well. "I took out many of those books as well first term, them and every other book I could get a hold of." she grinned. "I think this might be the first year I didn't rush straight to the potions lab as soon as I could. I have been well caught up in my social world as my mom use to say." Minerva smiled thinking about her mom. "She told me this would happen one day, where I would pick my friends and boys over books. I never really believed her, but I guess she was right."
Minerva laughed with him. "I'm glad we can talk about this without having to worry about the other getting the wrong idea or upset. We both understand what's going on and need the support. Two minds are better then one and I think that goes great with friendly counseling sessions, don't you? she joked about the counseling, but just a small joke, that's what they were doing to be honest, right....

Sophie was still running towards the Whomping Willow, her wand firmly in her hand. Extremely worried about what to do, she didn't want to get hit by the tree but she didn't want to freeze another Pygmy Puff! She was lucky Barny was alright, but what if something went wrong with this other Pygmy Puff?? Gaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!
She was too busy to hear the boy shouting for a 'person running', but she did her as Ella called out her name and warned her about the tree and her wand. BUTBUTBUTBUTBUT she didn't want to hurt the Pygmy Puff! She couldn't use the Freezing Spell! AAAHHHHWHATTODOOOO???
The Pygmy Puff was SO fast - how COULD they run this fast????? - and it was almost reaching the Whomping Willow!! THEY WERE BOTH GOING TO GET HIT!!! MERLINHELP!!! HEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!
Then something suddenly popped into Sophie's mind! She stopped abruptly and pointed her wand to the runaway Pygmy Puff before either of them reached the Willow. "WINGARDIUM LEVIOSA!" She exclaimed with a swish and flick, both of her eyebrows raised. That spell didn't hurt! She knew it!! And the creature wasn't going to be able to run if it was floating, right??????
"Marcelo, then," she nodded. It was still a funny name, but at least it seemed she could pronounce it. "You know, you should just introduce yourself as such if you're so bothered by people saying, 'Joahoo' wrong." Words of advice from Ellie Stone.

Her eyes remained narrowed as she stared at the kid, anticipating his next move. Would he try and pry into Jacob's bag? Or take the binder that was already out away from her?
Or would he leave so she could finally use her birthday gift in peace?
Joăo raised his eyebrows at the advice, obviously surprised by such a suggestion. It took all his will not to snort and snap at the girl. Ravenclaws. They thought they were the only clever creatures in the universe. But he wasn't going to snap at this girl, nope. Because he had to prove to She-who-should-not-be-named's friends that he was quite a nice guy when he wanted. So instead of a hot reply, he simply shrugged.
"Thank you for the advice," even then, it just wouldn't have felt right if he didn't make somewhere of his comment sarcastic, "but I like Joăo much more, so I'll be using it with capable people." Saying that quite calmly. It would be her fault if she took them offensive.
If she wasn't going to work on them now, why taking all those notebooks out and nearly killing him? He kept his eyes narrowed too and kept her gaze like that. They were both measuring each other up, obviously. At last, he looked away. Away at the tree to be more precise, because something that big moving in the corner of his eye was more that enough to distract him.
"Fine," he said, looking back at her again. Leaning on the tree, he directed his gaze at the tree and waited her next move. Because until she was settled down, he couldn't just start thinking.

Marcelo had been ever so kind to thank her. And Ellie had thought he was just going to leave it at that. As evident by the small smile appearing on her face. Until he went on, that is. He should really stick to one sentence at a time. Because her reactions seemed to be changing every time he decided to open his mouth again.
Instead of that smile, the redhead raised an eyebrow, "I don't think that not being able to pronounce your silly name makes the majority of the Hogwarts population, including myself, incapable." Thank you very much. It was really just a suggestion anyway. "And if you insist on people calling you...that name...than you shouldn't be so bothered when they pronounce it wrong. It's not like they're doing it on purpose," she said matter-of-factly. "That being said, I do understand how you could prefer to be called something over something else." Like how she only liked to be called 'Ellie' and hence introduced herself as such. Though, 'Ellie' was very easy to pronounce compared to Joahoo.
As far as getting her Quidditch work done, that would be impossible with him there. And she wasn't too keen on being nice to him after he'd called her 'incapable'. "You know, Quidditch season isn't too far away and I really need to work on these strategies..." He should go find another tree now.

For a Slytherin and for once in his entire life Jonathan right now just felt defeated. Maybe that's why it takes a lot of convincing powers for him to actually tell the story of what happened a few weeks ago. The most part was all of it is just sad and he didn't want to go and walk down that road again, then a small part is the that part. The part where, for the first time everything didn't go his way but that would just be him being selfish about it. Plus, it was entirely Kurumi's decision right? She didn't even fully explained most of the things he asked her.
With his head down, he can sense Louisa sitting or bending down next to him. There is a reason why he called him by a nickname and Louisa just loves to bring up his name. Cool friend Lewis. Lewis and Kurumi had an affair. She was like putting an even deeper scar on the already punctured wound. Did she really have to say the MOST OBVIOUS things to him? Was he mocking him too? Taking a deeper sigh this time "Stop it, Louisa" he said emphasizing every word. Yes, stop it means he hates hearing it more so stop it.
He didn't even bother to react when Louisa said it's always the sweet ones. He wasn't really feeling any banters coming in anytime now in fact, he barely had time to tease any students. Not even Daichi or Beezus which is really weird because Jonathan always tease younger students he hangs out with. So he just starred at Louisa with a blank expression. What? Did she want him to say something?
Then he was surprised when Louisa grabbed his hands, they just felt lifeless didn't they? He didn't have that much motivation to move, maybe that's why he slid on the wall in the first place. But for some reasons, Louisa made him smile when she said his name in a pretty cool way and then what she said after that as well. It was funny... with the way she just said it. His smile suddenly turned into a small laughter. He was finally laughing even though it's not as much as before but it's a start right? He looked at Louisa and said his sincere "Thank you" for making him laugh at least "... really." he said as he smiled once more.
When she suggested of getting out, Jonathan just nodded accordingly. He has been wanting that 30 minutes ago and she finally came around. Jonathan stood up. "Where to?" ready when she is.
Louisa had walked with Jonathan all the way from the castle to this particular part of the grounds. It was quiet, rather secluded and very suitable for talking. Not that Louisa stopped talking on the way here, she went on and on about the movie - trying to distract Jonathan from the emotional subject that she forced him to confront today. "... so the movie ends when Gaston just falls off the castle and Belle saves the monster. But alas, she only confesses her love to him after the last petal falls off." With her now empty hands, Louisa jumped forward and started walking backward while facing Jonathan and trying her best to gesture with her hands to get him into the mood, "But as her lips touch his and she cries on his chest, the magic still works and he starts floating and changing and swirling and then-" She paused walking, "VIOLA! He's a charming blonde prince! And they live happily ever after." Louisa added the last bit with a roll of the eyes and a bored kinda voice.
She stepped to the side and started walking again, "I didn't like the ending. It's too perfect, too happy. There's no such love." And she became aware of that just recently. However, saying this might've hit something in Jonathan! Louisa looked at him sideways and gave him a sympathetic smile, "Sorry, I didn't mean anything by that." Looking forward again, she frowned at the non-existent Kurumi's face, "I'll have some serious talking to with that girl soon." REALLY? Kurumi betrayed Jonathan...??!?!?!? Jeez, the apocalypse was dawning on them.

He's actually really surprised how Louisa is reacting to all of these. Was this the Louisa Jonathan knows? Was she the Ravenclaw that constantly bickers with him about every single detail every single time they meet. She was actually trying to make him forget and just loosen up for the whole day. While walking to the Whomping Willow, Louisa just basically explained then ending of the movie. The Gaston person and this Belle girl with the blonde prince creature. It was a nice story, not many wizard's fairy tale is like that. How the scenes where that complicated and such. It's quite nice to hear a glimpse of it. Besides, he has heard his best friend talking about muggle story books a lot. He's beginning to think that maybe he should try reading more of them, yes? Problem is, he doesn't own any of them.
He didn't speak much like the usual but this time he was more attentive with her explanation. She even had those funny hand gestures that made him smile. What? They were very funny. And for once, Jonathan did feel loosen up. It was nice to feel like that for once. "That's story is just...." he lowered his head as he slowly shook "...complicated" yup, that's the whole thing. The whole story from start to finish is just bloody complicated. Her father is an inventor, she loves to read books, he is in love with her because of her looks, she hates him for his arrogance and then she falls in love with some arrogant creature who happens to be a cursed handsome prince? MERLIN. What was the author thinking putting so many things in one book? And this story is a fairytale right? Do muggle kids catch up with all the complex story line too?
Jonathan eyed the one area and walked towards it. He sat down without even caring he is sitting on the ground. Then she talked about disliking the ending because it's 'too happy'. Jonathan snorted. Is it? Jonathan just thought it was perfectly fine because of the complicated and confusing start to finish story. The least the author could do is make the ending well.... not too twisted. He glanced over to Louisa as he crossed his legs "What? You're expecting for all of them to die?" he said giving out a small laugh.
However, he did ignore the latter part of what she said. Louisa could do whatever she wants and she didn't need to tell him that. Jonathan followed the trunk of the Whomping Willow and then back at Louisa "It would be nice to go up that tree, don't you think?" he said. It just came out but really... wouldn't it be awesome. You get to have all that adrenaline rush.

You get to have all that adrenaline rush.
Louisa plopped down next to Jonathan, scooting a bit to the side so that the tree was on her left and the boy was on her right. Complicated? SNORT. "Come oooonnn. The Fountain of Fair Fortune, from the tales of beedle the bard is a lot more complicated than this." She raised her arms in the air to indicate the clarity of this. "A girl falls in love with a monster. He turns out to be a prince. They live happily ever after." HULLO? That's pretty much what all fairy tales are about.
Giggling she replied, "Nooo! Not like die.. but.. I don't know." Louisa stared off thoughtfully with a grin plastered on her face, "The monster could still be a monster and not die. Then Belle would marry him just the way he is." Yep, that was Louisa's type of stories. Reasonable, a bit sad and realistic. She shrugged, "I guess that's why I don't get along with many." 'cause mostly people are just 'too happy' for her liking.
His attention was drawn to the tree then - not just any tree, the Whomping Willow tree. Louisa squinted her eyes at Jonathan, did he have a death wish now that he broke up with Kurumi? Did she have to keep an eye on him all the time? That could be a bit problematic since she can't keep this bickering-free conversations for long. "No, actually it doesn't." Louisa lied as her eyes were staring still at the boy as if he was sick, "Last term, Treyen immobolized it for me and I got pretty close to it. Believe me," she scoffed, "It's overrated. Too woody. Too old. Too smelly. Not the type of tree you'd want to climb at all." All were lies but for a good cause.
Changing the subject. "Was it really your first experience in the movie, then? You've never seen a muggle movie before?" She hugged her knees as she beamed at him. WAS SHE HIS FIRST CINEMA TOUR GUIDE? Louisa liked to be firsts.

"A girl falls in love with a monster. He turns out to be a prince. They live happily ever after." HULLO? That's pretty much what all fairy tales are about.
Giggling she replied, "Nooo! Not like die.. but.. I don't know." Louisa stared off thoughtfully with a grin plastered on her face, "The monster could still be a monster and not die. Then Belle would marry him just the way he is." Yep, that was Louisa's type of stories. Reasonable, a bit sad and realistic. She shrugged, "I guess that's why I don't get along with many." 'cause mostly people are just 'too happy' for her liking.

Jonathan can't believe this. She seriously thinks wizard's tales are more complicated. PFFFFFTTTTT. Bloody no. Jonathan guffawed when she tried comparing notes this time. Jonathan doesn't really believe so. This Beauty and the Beast story is clearly MORE complex than a 5 year old kid can comprehend. "Please Louisa" he said rolling his eyes to her. "Those stories are so simple even a crup would understand it" well, maybe comparing it to a crup is just exaggerating things and doesn't really make sense. But still, the point was that was how simple the wizard's stories were "We don't have those complicated characters. Muggle stories are just difficult" he said sticking his tongue out. He's not going to loose in this argument. Not that they were keeping track on who's winning or not...
"And besides" he said pointing out the one thing she emphasized in the story "A girl falling in love with a monster? Who turns out to be a prince? That's more confusing than Arithmancy" oh so now they're going to argue about this? "Not to be superficial but who falls in love with a creature?" his forehead was frowning a lot but he's definitely having fun about this. Hey maybe they can argue about this in that book club thingy. Jonathan keeps smirking a lot as he now waits for Louisa to contradict him this time.
Her next explanation just made him cringed even more "Which brings us back again to who falls in love with a creature..." he snorted. The ending is okay and he doesn't see why she doesn't like it. Come on, it's a likable ending. Louisa disagrees because she wants the prince to stay a creature forever and Belle should marry him that way.... that's hilarious, Carter.
Jonathan was starting to laugh with the story and them starting to argue debate like little kids once more. Cheers to them.
Jonathan snorted once more. "Who said about immobilizing it anyway?" he whispered, grinning with his eyed squinting as well. She's now telling him her past encounter with the tree? Overrated. Too woody. Too old. Too smelly. He would be impress with this however he is not. "Ride it, not climb it" yes, that was it, right? It's not fun climbing the Whomping Willow when it's stunned by a spell.
And as for her question about this first experience, he looked up into the sky and nodded. He has never been outside of the wizarding world. He may travel a lot not to the extent that he visits any muggle communities. "Why?" he said with another big smirk on his face as he turns to her "Is it weird?" Ayumi once called him that for not being able to see any muggle experience.

Usually? Louisa would've snapped back, stuck her tongue out and probably nudged him and run away but now it was just so relieving that Jonathan was being Jonathan again. She laughed out loud, slapping her hand on his leg not-so-strongly. "Geez, Jonathan, you're such a child sometimes." GRIN. Argument dropped down... because lots were to come... apparently. O.o
Okay, ladies and gentlemen, she was losing the friendly sacrifice-your-nature-for-a-friend determination so quickly. "AHA!" She pointed at him accusingly, "Your stuck-up-iness is showing mister. Who'd fall with a monster? Really?" She let her hand fall as she leaned in on her hands on the ground, "She fell in love with him because she'd given him a chance to show his true heart to her. He was beautiful from within." Was... that Louisa Carter speaking? She almost puked, the girl never talked sappily like that! D: She straightened up and smirked, "Muggles believe so, anyways. For more reference The Warlock's Hairy Heart could relate to that a bit." See? she could talk wizardy and muggly stories. Smart smart Louisa.
His laugh made her beam again, oh man! She was gooood apparently. If only Paulie was here, he'd snort and say not to get her head so big. However, the talk about riding the whomping willow let her humor die instantly. She looked seriously at him, stunned, "Y-you want to ride on the tree? Without stunning it?" Death wish it is! "No." She tried to be conclusive but her curiousity got the best of her. "Can we do that?" she whispered back, squeaking a bit.
Shrugging Louisa grinned at him again, "No. I just wanted to be your first movie tour guide." Hehehehe, and she was apparently! "It would've been more fun if you ate any of the snacks or listened to me...but it was fun for me!" Yes, by now, she knew for a fact that he wasn't listening to her half the time.
Marcelo had been ever so kind to thank her. And Ellie had thought he was just going to leave it at that. As evident by the small smile appearing on her face. Until he went on, that is. He should really stick to one sentence at a time. Because her reactions seemed to be changing every time he decided to open his mouth again.
Instead of that smile, the redhead raised an eyebrow, "I don't think that not being able to pronounce your silly name makes the majority of the Hogwarts population, including myself, incapable." Thank you very much. It was really just a suggestion anyway. "And if you insist on people calling you...that name...than you shouldn't be so bothered when they pronounce it wrong. It's not like they're doing it on purpose," she said matter-of-factly. "That being said, I do understand how you could prefer to be called something over something else." Like how she only liked to be called 'Ellie' and hence introduced herself as such. Though, 'Ellie' was very easy to pronounce compared to Joahoo.
As far as getting her Quidditch work done, that would be impossible with him there. And she wasn't too keen on being nice to him after he'd called her 'incapable'. "You know, Quidditch season isn't too far away and I really need to work on these strategies..." He should go find another tree now.
HMPH.
Oh, how Joăo enjoyed angry, know-it-all Ravenclaws. He enjoyed it even more if that anger was caused by him. Sure, usually it ended quite horribly for both sides, especially on his side, but it was worth it. Because then he would just leave casually and they would be angrier for caring in the first place.
...no one called his name silly, though.
"My name is silly now?" he counter-attacked, obviously shocked. He would keep calm though... he had observed many times that being angry and giving hot answers did him no good, so he would just keep calm and answer her in short, effective answers to prove her wrong.
"If you don't know your own language, then it's not my problem." He smirked. "Let me still teach you, in case you'll have to use it in the future." His smug smirk got broader, though the moment later he was quite serious and in the mood of a small lecture. "'capable' means 'having the ability, power or qualities to do something'. That being said, copying the other side's words always did the trick, "the majority of Hogwarts population, including you, are incapable of pronouncing my noble name." There. Explanation done. "Thank you, again, for your understanding." Yep. Always thank someone when they do something you need. Joăo Marcelo Nascimento Mendonça Teixeira Neves never forgot his manners.
Raising his eyebrows in confusion, he said "I don't think you need my permission to work on that, but I'll give you permission anyway." She probably wanted to ask him politely to move to another tree, but since he had been nice enough to let her sit there with him, share his blanket with her and not to answer her hotly after her insult to his name, he was so staying there.
Damon sighed sitting down. His red hair glowing in the sunlight. He still felt horrible for everything that was going on around him. He was at a total loss of what to do.
Lewis just blinked at her a couple of times in confusion, not quite sure what she was getting at. What were they about to see? What was she talking about? Oh. She was trying to come up with a nickname for him? "No. That reminds me of Indy's Pygmy Puff." No explanation needed there, in his eyes anyway. Which reminded him though..."But...she calls me Lewwy sometimes." Since Evelyn was SO keen on finding him a nickname and all. "But I like Lewis." Yes. It wasn't weird that he liked his own name, was it?
He was still a little taken aback by her laughing and he was getting more and more certain that she'd been laughing AT him. Only why he didn't know. When she finally told him that he could lie down on the grass like Vanilla was, he turned to look at her again without tilting his head back to normal however. "B-but...you're here now." That didn't mean that he wanted her to leave. That was just his explanation why he couldn't just lie down like that and sleep.
Evelyn shook her head and sighed. She really didn't know WHY he looked so confused. Was it something she said? Yeah, probably. That's the reason why he was staring at her like..he didn't even know her. Oh, great! He finally said something..which she didn't understand. Who was Indy again? Anyway, it was clear that he didn't like Lou. Okay. Wait, what!? Evelyn turned her laugh into a cough..although she wasn't sure if she was successful in masking her laugh. "I'm sorry but I think I'd rather call you Lewis." Not that she didn't like Lewwy..but she preferred Lewis.
She was here now.. Was that cue for her to leave? Now it was Evelyn's turn to looked confused. "Erm..okay..do you want me to leave?" She didn't mind, really. If he want to lay down on the grass and relax..it was fine with her. She turned to look at the tree again and waited for his response.

Minerva walked down to the Willow, she sat down and looked at the tree. She thought about all that had gone on since the last time she had sat in front of this tree. She braided her brown hair into pig tails as she thought about everything. Last time she was there she was so upset about her family, felt like her friends had forgotten about her, and could have cared less about classes. Now she had lost her boyfriend, felt like she was losing her newest best friend, and did actually care about classes.
She needed the pain to stop and an idea hit her. Last time she wanted the pain to stop she played a little game with her favorite tree. She stood up and smirked. Looking around she saw some students, but they would never notice her she wouldn't be that obvious. She made sure her bag was out of the way. She walked up to the tree, "You ready for another round Mr. Willow?" The tree swung and she moved laughing. It felt good to have the rush of fear back..

Harvey had walked upto the Willow as some people had told him that Minnie was here since he had asked them.. he smiled as he saw her there.. he was walking upto her when she got up and walked towards the tree.. his smile disappeared as he knew what that meant.. she had done it before.. and sure enough she moved out of the way as the tree swung for her.. he quickly ran towards her.. "Er Mins? are you ok? I am guessing that something is wrong cause I havent seen you like this in a long time" he called out to her as she was playing with the tree... again he just hoped that she wouldnt get hurt.

Minerva had dodged another limb and was about to jump out of the way for another one when she heard her name. She took her eyes off the tree for a split second and WHACK she went to the ground. "Oouch" She mooned a bit and she laid on the ground. She rolled on her back, she didn't feel like anything was broken but her shoulder hurt. She sat up and grabbed her left shoulder with her right hand and glared at him. "I was fine until you came, thank you." she growled towards him. She couldn't believe she let her eyes off the flipping tree.

Harvey winced as he saw her get hit by the tree .. ouch he mouthed.. as he watched her rolled onto her back.. before she sat up and held her shoulder "Ah sorry" he looked at her as she growled at him "Well are you ok? after getting hit by that tree?" he asked as he looked at the tree "Er Mins.. I think its still not done with you cause-here-comes-another-one-RUN!!" he said that last words really quickly to warn her of another branch coming her way.. as he kept his eyes on the branch and looked quickly between her and the branch.. not taking HIS eyes off the tree AND her.

"I'm fine it just bumped me... thankfully." she glared at him still not taking her eyes off of him. Why did he come to find her and why on earth would he distract her knowing she was that close to the tree. He knew her game, he had played before. She then heard the warning and looked as a branch was coming over head to flatten her. She rolled back to her stomach just in time to see the branch land where her back had been. "Crap" she jumped to her hands and knees then to her feet spinning to face the tree as another branch came flying towards her this tree had it in for her today it must not have liked losing last time she thought quickly as she dodged away. She moved back to her bag and sat down since she was out of the reach of the tree.
She watched as the tree continued to fling its branches trying to find her. She couldn't help but smirk watching it. Yeah, yeah it won that round, but only because someone had distracted her. Speaking of that someone she glared back at Harvey with her hand back on her shoulder. It was hurting pretty good, but she knew nothing was broken. Just another bruise most likely. "So did you need something Harvs, or did you just come to watch the tree kill me?" she began to move her shoulder around so it wouldn't get to stiff.

Just bumped her? that was not a bump... more like a battering ram to the shoulder.. yeah there was something going on with her.. he watched as she dodged the tree a few more times.. flinching each time she did.. wow.. had she become a little more stronger and a little more angered than when he saw her last.. he thought as he remembered her hugs.. yeah there was a little.. ok.. some change.. and he wanted to know what.
He then watched as she came over to her bag and sat down out of reach of the tree.. then glaring at him as she held her shoulder.. ok that glare did not look good .. uh oh.. he was in trouble.. wow! now he wasnt expecting to hear that.. well he expected to hear the first part but not the second part.. "No I didnt come here to watch that tree kill you.. I had some free time to pass.. so .. I thought we could hang out a bit.. but I can come back later... if you wanna finish your... er... little game with the tree" he said getting ready to walk away.. clearly she was not in the mood to hang out.. and there had to be a reason for that "Mins.. just a quick question before I go.. is everything ok with you? I mean the last time you played this game.. you were quite upset that time too" well duh.. of course she was upset that time.. what was it this time that made her this upset again.. he wondered

"I like this game, ask me another question."
Spoiled sport indeed. Milton grinned. Good. She was being a good sport. Milton watched as Taryn pondered over the question, an amused smile crossing his face. Saraha. Milton nodded slowly. "Interesting choice. Personally, I would chose Siberia." He shrugged. Oh well.
Another question. Milton narrowed his eyes and looked around as he thought about what to ask... "Say you're in a tropical forest surrounded by flesh-eating plants. Without a wand. Also surrounded by... Manticores. How do you defend yourself and escape?" It seemed appropriate seeing as though they were studying flesh-eating plants in Herbology. And Milton sometimes felt it was HIM stuck in a forest called Hogwarts where all the students were flesh-eating idiots and the teachers were Manticores. Ugh.
He also realized his questions were weird and quite random. So, he decided that the next question would be somewhat normal.

Minerva stopped moving and rubbing her shoulder she ignored the pain in it. "I'm ..I'm fine, I just had some free time and thought about playing a game alone." she looked at the tree again, who was she kidding she wasn't fine. She was super duper confused about so many things. Damon broke up with her, Taylor and her were fighting, she didn't do very well at gobstones or quidditch, and to add more icing to the cake she was starting to think she was feeling something for someone else, but just pushed that as them becoming closer friends. She was just going to let Harvey walk so she could go back to the tree, but she sighed.
"Harvey don't leave, I don't need to be alone right now."she looked at the ground not sure where to start. "There has been a lot going on lately I guess. I really didn't do well at my gobstones match, we won, but I wasn't doing my best, I feel like I didn't do well at quidditch tryouts either. I'm just not sure I'm going to be part of the team this year." She wasn't sure whether to go on or not. "Taylor and I have been arguing and things have gotten very uncomfortable between us, and oh yeah Damon and I aren't together anymore." There it was out in the open. She said it and started pulling her brown pig tails nervously.

He looked at her as she rubbed her shoulder "Oh ok.. no worries.. I will leave you to carry on then" he smiled as he was about to walk away when she told him to stay.. so he stayed "Ok Mins I will stay.. you arent alone now" he smiled a little as she told him everything that was going on with her.. he was so surprised that so much had happened in such a short time.. it wasnt that long ago that they had hung out and she seemed ok.
He was about to comment on her and quidditch when something took away that and left him with his mouth wide open.. he moved closer to her and put his hand on her arm.. "W.. what happened that you and he split up?" he asked "And I am guessing thats the reason you and Taylor are arguing? " he questioned.. as he watched her play with her pigtails.. even though he knew that there couldnt possibly be another reason for it. Forget quidditch.. this Damon and Taylor things that had happened were the main reasons for her wanting to play a game with this tree again.. not gobstones or quidditch.. those didnt make you feel as bad as when someone tells you that they dont wanna be with you anymore.. that was the one that hurt more than anything.. he really felt bad for her that this had happened to her.. she had been so happy that she and Damon had started dating.. only for this to happen
