Since the Common Room has been locked (the Great Lockout of '78) and all students forced out, the Hufflepuffs have had to make other arrangements for sleeping, eating, studying, dining, etc. Conveniently, the long dining tables of the Great Hall have also disappeared, perhaps under the same strange circumstances that led to the lockout....

As it is, the entirety of Hufflepuff House will be sleeping in thick, warm, purple bags with silver stars embroidered on them, right in the spot where their fancy table used to be. The bags are a Hogwarts' specialty, used only in certain circumstances, and although they are no match for a real mattress, they'll have to do for now.

Presley sighed. "You're a sweet kid, Awarlesta." Code for: you're too nice and you give me more credit than I deserve. I'm not that attractive, and intelligence doesn't win you a boyfriend.

Hmm. Ministry worker. What department? Was she from a good family? Was she well-mannered? So many questions she'd have to ask Manolo in her next letter. "That's nice. I wonder what grandfather will think of her." Presley said aloud. Awar would understand the billions of speculations contained in that small statement. "What about you?" she nidged the eleven year old playfully. "Any cute boys caught your eye yet?" Though she was almost twelve. Presley would have to get her a gift next Hogsmeade weekend.

SPOILER!!: Awar! ^_^

Alec smiled, kind of glad that Awar wasn't nervous around him. Sure, he wasn't anything like Treyen or Keefer but he remembered what it was like to meet them and just be awed by their presence. And that had caused him to become nervous. So... yeah. It was good that these two weren't nervous.

The enthusiasm was something that made him smile a bit more. He remembered being that enthusiastic about everything as a firstie as well. And if anyone mentioned ice cream... well... GRIN. "That's really awesome!" Not... that she was homesick though. But everything else. "And... yeah. Hogwarts does feel like your second home after a while..." And Hufflepuff? What an awesome house for making another family. Alec nodded along at the favourites and least favourites. Yeah. "Oh Muggle Studies! Lots of superheroes this term!" GRIN GRIN GRIN. Although... he didn't know whether Awar liked superheroes or not. But superheroes were awesome! And History of Magic? "Well... between you and me... I'm not great at that subject either," he said, hoping this would... help her feel better? Who knows. "Erm... and... it's good to be not good at a subject, yeah?" You know... since he was the third year so really, he should be saying something wise. Yeah.

So Awar didn't play? That was cool too. Yeah! At least she watched it and still liked it, yeah? And Alec was kind of glad. Those Bludgers were scary sometimes! O_O "Yeah? Do you support a professional team?" GRIN.

SPOILER!!: Belleeeeee! ^_^

The sound of a coughing made Alec turn away from the two first year girls and turn his head towards the source of the sound. ... BELLE! Alec grinned widely at the female Prefect. Except... wait... how long had she been sitting there? And how was it that she didn't notice? Yeah... he was slightly confused now.

But Belle! "Hey Belle!" GRIN. "Erm... we're just... sitting here talking. And I'm great!" Really, he actually was. He wasn't just saying that this time. "How are you?" Oh right! Alec scooted over slightly so that Belle could join them and they could form a... square? Yeah. A square amongst these sleeping bags in the Hufflepuff corner.

SPOILER!!: Bef! ^_^

Then added, "Awar and I just met. But who knows? We could be best of friends. I'm not really choosy. I just like making friends.", she exclaimed.

After a while, Alec asked them about Hogwarts and their favorite classes. Befelda's been soo wanting to answer these questions. We know that Befelda's really a bookworm and wants to study all the time. Well, not at this time at least. Befelda, still smiling sweetly at Alec, quickly gave the boy an answer. "Oh, I love Hogwarts. It's been my dream to be here since I was 5. My Dad's been here before. He was in Gryffindor though, my Mom was a Slytherin, and she was a Seeker too. Well, maybe that's the reason why I wanted to become a Seeker as well." Yes, it's been her dream. But it's not the right time.

Befelda got back to reality and continued her speech, "Well, let's see...I have a little too many favorite classes. First on my list is Potions. I LOVE brewing Potions. It just...oh I don't know, I feel like I could brew anything I wanted to. Then second is Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Learning these spells are really making me more determined. Then next on my list is of course, Quidditch! I always wanted to be a Seeker and my Mom Dad used to teach me back in our home in Surrey. They've even bought me a Firebolt! That was the coolest gift I had.", she said excitedly, her eyes were glittering. "Then the last on my list is the Muggle Studies. Well, I have muggle neighbors and they seem to be nice so I took the class to learn more about them and don't regret taking them. Muggles are brilliant!", she added.

"Least subjects? Ah...I'm not really sure if I hated them but I don't like Ancient Runes, Divination, Arithmancy and Herbology, well especially Arithmancy. I never liked numbers. I'm not good in history as well. And I'm not good when it comes to plants. It just....it blows my mind.", she said.

She thought she had said long enough about the subjects. She couldn't help herself not to babble sometimes. Then suddenly Alec took out a packet of sweets and offered them since he really has no games for them to play. Befelda love sweets especially the Bertie Bott's Every Flavored Beans. But it doesn't really matter what the name is, she just love eating them. She hastily grabbed some from the packet. "Great! I love sweets. That was so sweet of you, Alec." she made a deep stare straight to Alec's charming eyes. Her eyes were glittering like crystals.

When Alec told about his Quidditch story, Befelda was really amazed. He's been a Seeker all his time at Hogwarts! That was really impressive!, she murmured to herself. "Blimey, that was way impressive. Now I know why I didn't take the part this year." she quipped. But Alec bid her an encouragement not to give up. Of course she wouldn't, it's her dream. Then she again said, "Of course! maybe I could beat you someday, perhaps on the next school year.", she said jokingly, she's really determined to become a Seeker in their house one day, even if the boy said that everything were difficult. She would do her best to become one.

Alec raised his eyebrows, slightly impressed with how quickly Befy was answering his questions. And she was still smiling! That was awesome! "Awesome! Thanks!" Oh right! They could probably... give him a nickname too? Even if he had quite a few already? "Erm... I don't know what you can make out of Alec but... any nickname will do?" Yeah... they might not have understood that. Shrug. "You know... it seems like you two have been best friends for years!" Like him and Rilez. Except... in their case, the two had been best friends for years. Nearly twelve years in fact.

Woah! Five? Alec was impressed... again. "Yeah? That's awesome!" ... Was he saying that a lot? "It's good to have you in Hufflepuff then!" Both her and Awar. Yeah. They seemed like nice, sensible girls. ... Oh. That explained a lot, actually. "You know, I bet she'd still be proud. Both... of your parents would be," he said, nodding and smiling. That was his plan this year. To make his Dad proud. So he did understand where Befy was coming from.

When Befy said that she had a little too many favourite classes, Alec honestly thought she would have, well, two or three. That counted as a lot to him. But four, if you included Quidditch, wasn't really that far off. "Yeah? Erm... do Lafay scare you?" The woman really was scary, actually. Potions was just scary sometimes... because of her. "Defence is awesome! Yeah!" GRIN. Except... yoga was something he couldn't do. "Wait, do you... have a Quidditch pitch back at your house?" How awesome would that be? And she lived in Surrey, yeah? Exactly like him! GRIN. Muggles... yeah, they were brilliant. Like his Dad. "That's an awesome list! And a lot of subjects you like!" GRIN.

As for her least favourites... Alec's eyes immediately searched the nearby area for any sight of a certain Professor but... she was far away for the time being. Good. "At least Hadley's awesome eh?" That's partly what made him want to go to Arithmancy. Except it did hurt his head sometimes. "Yeah... Herbology's a bit... weird." At least they could agree on that, yeah?

Alec chuckled a little as the girl grabbed a couple of the sweets. Yeah... sweets really were a good compromise for the 'no games' thing. Because really, it was easier giving someone sweets than to think of a good enough game they could play. Unless they had a massive pillow fight with everyone in the Great Hall. But... there weren't cushions around so... yeah. He shook his head and smiled. "Awesome!" And her eyes were glittering? Maybe she was just... really happy? "I... yeah? Thanks! You're sweet too!" Nodnod.

Impressive? Really? He didn't really expect it to be impressive at all. Not really. Not when everyone knew you for being part of the Quidditch Team. Except... he wasn't really complaining about that last bit so... YEAH! "Erm... well... thanks!" GRIN. "Erm... yeah? So... I'll have competition for the spot then?" That would be very interesting, actually.

Awar also wondered the same as Presley every time something involved her family. She nodded, "Or what will grandmother say?" She felt more intimidated by her grandmother, feeling that she was the more judgmental one.

Awar's cheeks grew bright red.

"Presley!" Boys??? She's had crushes on boys, but boys have never had a crush on her. Or so she thinks. She hid her face, "No..."

Awar felt relieved that she wasn't the only one sucking at HoM. It felt like that sometimes. She leaned in and whispered, "Don't worry. You're secret's safe with me."

Hmm, a professional team... "My brother is a big fan of Puddlemere United, so sometimes I side with them, but I feel like I'm more of a Holyhead Harpies fan."

Uncle Moose · 11-05-2012, 05:16 AM

Looking down now at his clothes that had dried thanks to Minerva. He looked back and gave the Hufflepuff girl a smile. "Thanks Minerva, don't suppose you know anything about getting rid of potato smells do you?" That was a long shot, and mostly just a joke. He'd deal with that later. In the mean time He'll just...just...just...do nothing. Everything he had to do was in the common room. His homework, his comics, his comics that he hid in his homework.

So he just sat back down and rolled over onto the sleeping bag. starring up at the Great Hall's ceiling.

Presley's eyes widened and she nodded. Grandfather had the final say in everything, as head of household, but grandmother pretty much had him under her thumb, and she wasn't nearly as kind-hearted. Their grandfather was a stern man, but when it came down to it, he'd never missed a dance performance, or failed to bring flowers and congratulate her. He was the grandfather that sat with you and helped you work through your Arithmancy problems, while never telling you what the answer was. Grandmother showed up to dance performances simply to criticize the miniscule stumble, or poor form during a step.

She laughed a little dismissively. "Oh Grandmother will hate her no matter what. She always does." Even if the girl was the absolute perfect girl every dreamed of for Manolo, grandmother would find something unforgiveable wrong with the poor girl.

Presley loved teasing her cousin. So when her cheeks turned red Presley needled a little further. "So you DO like someone!" she laughed gaily. "Who is it? Anyone I know?" She jokingly scanned the crowd of heads as if searching for the boy Awar was blushing over.

Befelda nodded and smiled when Alec bid those words, "Yes, if I did make it in the Quidditch team, they would be more than proud of me. But...I think it could be difficult knowing who I am about to beat." she said jokingly.

She grinned when Alec told her about her favorite subjects. "Sorry, I really love those classes and they seemed 'few' to me. Haha! Well, Professor Lafay is ok for me. Yeah, she's a little bit scary sometimes but I guess her being terror was just a part of her job, to make her students listen and follow her. She's quite cool actually.", she added.

She almost forgot to congratulate Alec for winning the Quidditch match with Gryffindor. She never get to see the match as she's been pre-occupied with all the homeworks. She just heard the news from a Second year Puff back in the Great Hall. She produced a big smile on her face, "Oh I almost forgot. Congratulations for winning the Quidditch match. Fantastic job. Sorry though, I didn't get to see you, these homeworks are really giving me headaches, all the time. But, great job. We should celebrate, right?", she said to Alec.

She turned to Awar and gave her a hugesmile, "Hey, we should celebrate our victory for the Quidditch match.", she said to Awar excitedly.

Expecto-Penguin · 11-05-2012, 05:02 PM

SPOILER!!: Awar!

Belle felt Awar hug her. Belle smiled and said "Hello Awar!" and hugging her back tightly. "What have you been up to this semester?"

SPOILER!!: Alec!

Belle smiled at Alec. He was such a sweet boy. She was glad that they were friends. When Alec asked how she was, Belle shrugged and said "Can't complain. I am having a fun year so far. You guys excited for the holidays coming up soon?" she asked all her friends. Belle snapped her fingers and said, "Almost forgot.." and she bear hugged Alec. "I think i owed you one of those."

FireboltSword · 11-06-2012, 02:14 AM

SPOILER!!: Hey Belle!

Befelda, still staring at Alec, just noticed that a familiar Puff student was approaching them from nearby. Then she then recognized the girl she met at the Common Room on her first day in Hogwarts, it was Belle, their Prefect. She produced a friendly smile, "Hi Belle! It's so good to see you again. I'm spectacular. Well, been busy doing all these homework but I'm getting by. How are you? What are you sketching this time?", she asked Belle as she remembered their first meeting sketching.

She hid her face even further, "I don't like anybody!" She tried to cover her eyes as she looked around.

"Hmm...just making more friends and enjoying classes! You?" She asked the friendly prefect.

hermionesclone · 11-06-2012, 03:46 AM

SPOILER!!: Awar!

Alec smiled, glad that the two had something in common now. It meant that they would understand each other, right? Like... if one person was angry about something that happened in History of Magic, the other would understand? Yeah! CUE MAJOR GRIN FACE. "Thanks!" he whispered back, "And yours is safe with me?" GRIN.

Oh Puddlemere United! "Yeah? Erm... my best friend's brother plays for Puddlemere United! They're an awesome team!" Except... Carter did scare him sometimes. Just a bit. And... Holyhead Harpies? The all girls team right? "That's awesome! They're great too!" GRIN!

SPOILER!!: Befy!

Alec smiled. This was exactly like him, actually. He remembered when he had told his Dad about the matches he had won and the smile on his Dad's face... well... it wasn't one he was going to easily forget. "They could be proud of... some other things this year? Like... like the fact that you survived Hogwarts? That's pretty impressive," he said, a big grin spread across his face. Of course, Hogwarts was meant to be dangerous, yeah? "Well... are you up for the challenge?" he asked jokingly.

Alec shook his head, waving off the apology. "No no, it's good to like so many classes!" Pity he didn't. Most classes were very 'meh' to him. ... Professor Lafay... was okay to this girl?! Alec blinked. "Erm... she doesn't... she doesn't scare you?" ... Wow. That was... well... he didn't know how to explain it actually. "That's really impressive, you know." He nodded, feeling slightly bad that he himself found most teachers just a little bit scary at times.

Except... maybe... apart from Hadley. At this, Alec turned his head and gave the woman a comforting smile before looking back at Befy...

... who seemed to be congratulating him? Alec blinked for a couple of seconds, wondering what he had done that needed to be congratulated. But then the girl mentioned Quidditch and everything came rushing back. The fourteen year old grinned, happy that people were happy about the win. "Thanks!" he said, feeling the excitement ~~and nervousness~~ bubble up inside of him, "That's really okay!" The only person he actually expected to see during his games were his best friend who... hadn't been to either one of his games. Yeah... he didn't know how he felt about that. "Erm... well... are you okay? You know, after those headaches?"

... Celebrate? In the middle of the Great Hall? The fourteen year old reached up and ruffled his hair, kind of flattered that Befy wanted to celebrate this. "Erm... how about... if we win the Championships?" GRIN. He really wanted to win that!

SPOILER!!: Belle!

Alec grinned widely at Belle, glad that she was around for all this. Because... all this lockout nonsense... it made no sense. And Belle might not know the actual answer as to why this was going on but... she would have a smart answer, right? Probably. Or she'd just be able to make sure that they were all okay. Belle was good at doing that!

"Yeah? That's awesome!" GRIN! ... Holidays? "Yeah! Yeah, the holidays will be awesome!" He just knew it! And he'd be able to have LOTS of ice cream! "Are you excited for them?" He wasn't... showing that he was too excited, right? Of course not!

And the hug? Alec liked those! Yeah! And that was why when she hugged him, Alec bear hugged the older girl back. "Hugs are awesome!" GRIN GRIN GRIN.

Presley laughed lightly. Merlin help her was right. And if he was serious about her, he would bring her to the start of summer gala, and wouldn't it be hilarious to witness..

The older girl pulled Awar's hands away from her face. "Of course you do." she said matter-of-factly. "And if you tell me who it is, I'll tell you who I like." something mostly done by first and second years, but Presley had no problem admitting who she was crushing on, and it could potentially convince Awar to tell her who she fancied.

She then smiled, "Well, we could do a Pumpkin Juice toast! Haha!", Befelda said jokingly.

Befelda shrugged and grinned when Alec almost didn't believe her not being scared of Professor Lafay. "Really, she's not that scary like what you think. Well, for me at least. Professor Lafay's pretty fine.", she said.

When Alec said about the Championships, she said, "Well, maybe we could toast a Pumpkin juice. Haha! Kidding. Well, yeah, perhaps on the Championships. When would that be anyway? I will be attending and seeing that for sure! I wanted to see you play and our house win! ", she exclaimed still on a huge smile.

Expecto-Penguin · 11-06-2012, 10:55 PM

SPOILER!!: Befelda!

Belle was glad Befelda remembered her and she left a lasting impression. Belle nodded and was glad she was doing their homework and getting by in their classes. That is what being a hufflepuff is all about.
Belle replied, "It is good to see you too! I have missed seeing your familiar face. I am doing fine! The lockout has left my baffled, i have no idea who could have done this." she really wanted to know and get to the bottom of this.
When Befelda asked what she was sketching this time, Belle realized she left it in the common room. It was locked up and safe and sound. "Actually my sketchbook is back in the dormitory all locked up and i can not get to it since of the incident. I wish i had it though. I was thinking of sketching this landscape of stars and moons in the great hall." she said as she laid her head back and admired the beauty.

SPOILER!!: Awar

Belle was glad Awar was doing great. Belle patted her on her shoulder and said, "I am glad you are making friends and i am doing fine. I am studying for my NEWTS and all that. I am taking each day as it is. You are lucky you do not have to worry about it yet."

SPOILER!!: Alec! :)

Belle could tell Alec was excited for the holidays. She could see him bouncing on the balls of his feet. Belle giggled. She needed a good laugh today and she got it. "I am very excited for the holidays! Do you know what you are getting for christmas? Or will Santa deliver your gifts secretly?" she whispered. "I bet his elves are working on your gifts now."

Belle was glad he loved hugs! Belle especially loved bear hugs. She felt like he was her little brother. She even lifted him up in the air and hugged him. Alec always made her feel better. She loved him like a brother.

Befelda's face went sad when Belle told about her sketching stuff were left in the common room. "Aww...that's ok. But I wish you had your sketching stuff with you. I wanted to see the magical stars and moon on your sketching pad. Are you not framing all your sketch work? They would really look more fabulous when framed.", she said to Belle smilingly.

Then Befelda thought of Christmas, she asked Belle. "Hey, it's nearly Christmas. What are your plans?", she asked the Prefect.

OOC: Sorry for the ignorance but why are we sleeping here in the Great Hall? What really happened in the Common rooms?

SPOILER!!: Alec!

Awar's jaw dropped, "Don't tell my brother or he won't leave your best friend alone until he gets an autograph from his brother!" She giggled at the thought of Manolo completely fan-girling.

SPOILER!!: Presley!

Hmm...girls at her muggle grade school when she was younger used to do this to her and when she would tell them, thinking they were her friends, and then they would laugh at her and then go tell the boy! She hesitated. Presley was family though. "I don't know his name. He's just really cute." Her cheeks grew hotter.

SPOILER!!: Befelda!

"Mmm, pumpkin juice!" She smiled, "How about we just make a toast to Hogwarts for being so brilliantly wonderful?"

SPOILER!!: Belle!

Awar grimaced a little at the thought of life changing tests. Yep, she was totally happy she had a long way to go, "Good luck with that, Belle. I'm sure you'll do wonderful!"

Presley giggled like a child. Awarlesta was just such a darling child. Too sweet and innocent for her own good...Presley leaned really close to her younger cousin, and cupped her hands around her own mouth. True to her promise, she was about to tell Awar who she liked. "I'm madly in love with Milton Shaklebolt," she whispered. Then she back up a little. "But if you tell a soul, I will destroy your life." Her tone was joking, but they both knew there was a real and threat hidden under it. Not that Pres expected Awar to tell anyone, but just so she knew.

Awar's mouth dropped and she giggled, "Ooohh!" She drew a x over her heart to confirm her secrecy.

Befelda raised her right hand towards Awar's, as if she was also holding up an imaginary cup, "To Hogwarts!", she yelled, then she get the imaginary cup towards her face, as if she was really drinking. "Haha!" she laughed.

Befelda was a little odd at that moment. She didn't even wonder if Awar felt bizarre that time. Befelda erased everything that happened and get back to reality. She then asked Awar, "Ok, sorry about that. I feel like a crazy person. Haha! Anyways, it's almost Christmas. What are your plans? What kind of present do you want to have?", she asked Awar excitedly. Befelda loves presents. Well, everybody does but seems that Christmas is a very different and special occasion for her. One of her favorite and memorable presents she had received was a broom from her Dad. Her Dad has taught her some tips on how to fly in a broom and catch something in a fast speed. All of the memories came back to her.

SPOILER!!: Befy! ^_^

This was... impressive. Really. He remembered when he was a first year and scared of almost everyone who was older than him. But maybe... maybe Befy was just braver than him. Yeah! Maybe she really should be on the team, then. "Yeah? That's great then!" Really it was. "Soooo... who would you say your favourite Professor is?" You know, if she had one.

Toast a pumpkin juice? Alec chuckled at this. Yeah... maybe they could? When was it? "Erm... not too sure..." He... really should know that, right? "I'm guessing... erm... June? After the exams?" Because the last time he had played in the Championships, he remembered it being really sunny and... his exams had finished so... yeah. "You will? That's awesome!" GRIN because that meant more support! Which, he actually needed. "Erm... I... well... we'll try our best?" Ruffle ruffle ruffle...

SPOILER!!: Belle! ^_^

Alec grinned as Belle giggled. It was nice when someone laughed, yeah, but it was even better to know that he was the reason behind it. That's why Alec felt even happier about all of this. And they were talking about Christmas, yeah? "Yeah? That's awesome! Erm... do you have any plans for the holidays?" GRIN. "I... no... no, I don't mind what I get. Do you know what you want?" GRIN GRIN GRIN. "I hope so! And... they're probably working on yours too!" They had to be! Nodnod.

Alec GRINNED SUPER WIDELY as Belle lifted him up in the air. This had to be one of the most awesomest hugs ever! Really! And it was coming from Belle who, over this past year, had grown to become an older sister sister to him. And that was AWESOME!

SPOILER!!: Awar! ^_^

Alec chuckled at Awar's words. Yeah... Carter had to have been bombarded by fans asking for his autograph now that he was a hot shot Quidditch player. And... he didn't really know Awar's brother but he could imagine him asking Awar to ask Alec to ask Rilez whether she could get an autograph for Awar's brother.

... That was a little bit confusing.

"Is he... a really big fan then?" he asked, grinning widely. That was kind of awesome, actually. And it made him wonder if anyone was secretly a fan of him. ... Probably not. Nah!

She smiled and turned up to the ceiling, thinking who is her favorite Professor. She really have no idea who's her favorite as she thinks they are all awesome, but she thought Professor Lafay was really cool, perhaps because she loves Potions. "Well, let me see...it's not really a favorite Professor but I really like Professor Lafay's teaching technique. And she's really cool even though she was kind of...odd sometimes. But you know, all of us have odd moments sometimes. And besides, I love Potions!", she squirmed. She really loves Potions....and the Professor as well, no doubt. "Well, I also like Professor Romanos. She always make sure her students have some treats and goodies to eat.", she added and smiled sweetly. What do you expect from an 11-year old firstie, of course she likes treats.

"Well, so far those were my...if you may say favorite Professors.", she said. Alec then changed the topic back the Quidditch. It seems he doesn't know when will the championships be held on. "Oh, you're not sure. But it doesn't matter. I will be there, rain or shine! I can't wait to watch! I hope the exams are over." she answered. "But of course, you will try your best. Oh, by the way, it's nearly Christmas. What are your plans? Do you like presents? Do you still receive presents?", she asked Alec.

Expecto-Penguin · 11-09-2012, 09:17 PM

SPOILER!!: Awar

"Awww Awarlesta you are so sweet." she smiled and hugged her tightly

. "Just live your young life while you can, what are your plans for the holidays Awar? Doing anything interesting?"

SPOILER!!: Befelda

Belle blushed and was glad that Befelda thought her sketchbook work was amazing. "Aww it is not that good. I just do it in my free time. My mom said if i did not go to hogwarts, i would have gone to art school. I had a back up plan."
When Befelda asked what she was doing for the Holidays, Belle thought of it and said, "Well i am going back to Kansas soon and going on a cruise. In the muggle world terms, i am going out on a huge boat and visiting new countries. I am so excited." Belle said with a wide smile.

SPOILER!!: Alec!

Belle did not know what she wanted for the holidays yet. "But Alec like i told Beffy, i am going on a cruise with my grandparents and family. I am so excited. I will open my presents on the cruise. So i am excited to visit another country. I think my mom will surprise me with gifts. She always does." Belle was glad that Alec thought of her as an older sister. I am sure their bond will last when she leaves Hogwarts and goes out into the real world.

Awarlesta Black · 11-10-2012, 04:11 AM

SPOILER!!: Befelda!

"It's okay to be crazy sometimes!" She smiled. What did she want for Christmas? Daddy. She blinked and turned back to Befelda. "Umm...I don't know. Maybe a new diary! I'm close to filling mine up. You?"

SPOILER!!: Alec!

"OH. HUGE FAN! He went years begging our parents to take him to their Quidditch match. We could never go, though." Awar said feeling a bit of sympathy for her brother who worked so hard and was rarely rewarded in her opinion.

SPOILER!!: Belle!

Awar smiled feeling special and hugged her back tightly. "Holiday plans? Hmm...I guess the usual. My grandparents always throw this Christmas party that I always have to go to."

Annie slowed down a bit as she neared Josephina, particularly since her former Housemate seemed to be looking in her direction all of a sudden. "Professors Hadley, Magnus," she acknowledged them both with a swift nod and then cut straight to the chase.

"How are the common rooms looking? I'm putting together a team to break into them... we'll likely need your expertise, Isabell..."

Hey Ju · 11-10-2012, 05:38 AM

After her first try failed, Sophie was even more determined to get this freaky spell right. It was a strange word, but she had managed to do that one Flipsntiwitwin - or whateveeer - once, so she knew she'd be able to cast any spell now. ANY spell. Even this Torparticus.

It wasn't the incantation she was having trouble with and she knew it. Sophie just couldn't figure out what she was doing wrong and this annoyed her a bit. She wanted to get the spell RIGHT!

What was the wand movemente again? Oh right, just a simple jab. Torparticus. The girl kept mouthing the incantation over and over as she walked towards her sleeping bag.

After sitting down, Sophie pulled out her wand and crossed her legs. Yep, left hand, you'd be her target once more! Jab! "Torparticus!" o__O was that... a little jet of light that just came out of her wand? And her left hand was a bit tingly now. Sophie wasn't sure if that was what was supposed to happen, but well, at least something was happening. It meant she was improving in a way! Yay!

That sensation was still better than the one that Petrificus Digitirus caused, in Sophie's opinion. She could deal with this one for a bit. That was why she sat there watching her hand for a few seconds before pointing her wand at her hand again. "Finite."
