Oh there was Rich. He was probably going to talk to Rora, which Kat knew would happen because of lots of reasons regarding Rora graduating. The soon-to-be sixth year didn't want to interrupt the two so she just sat there. "Hi Rich," was all she could manage to the older Slytherin.

So, when was the speech going to delivered? Cos food, and Kat had to pack a few of her other things in the common room afterwards.

And there was Asher too. "Hey, Asher," Kat replied to him and also returned his smile. They weren't really close with each other, but Kat disregarded that fact. He was a teammate and that obviously made them instant friends. And he was a good Quidditch player too, which adds more to the Kat!points.

Oh, Peyton! Kat liked her even though she just joined in Hogwarts this term. The soon-to-be fourth year received a wave from Kat. Because she was cool, plays Quidditch well, and a Slytherin. Don't forget that tiny part. "Hiii Peyton!" she said to the younger she-snake.


Kat saw Sierra and then realised, yeah their female Prefect was graduating too. SIGHS. Might as well congratulate her too, right? Nobody could replace how cool Sierra was as the female prefect of Slytherin house. "Hey Sierra," Kat said to her. "Congratulations on finally graduating." Sometimes Sierra's poker face was hard to decipher but that didn't really matter right now, did it? Kat wanted to say that she'll miss Sierra and stuff, but that sounded really... Puffer, as how Sierra would most likely put it as.


He didn't LIKE the nickname? Kat knew that. "It's one of the reasons why I call you that," the younger blonde said. "But thanks for letting me call you Garrett anyway...?" She didn't know if that was something to be thankful for but if Kat was to never see Garrett in Hogwarts after tonight, she'll have to let that out too. The Head Boy also seemed to be glad he was graduating, like some others felt like too. Except maybe Rora, but obviously the redhead and the blonde were too different people.

Yeah, the regular thanks. "You're welcome," Kat returned his smile too. And next term. Did he have to remind her that she was going to be a sixth year this coming September? "And... er, thanks. We'll grab all three cups next term, no problem." Kat was so sure of it. Dylan was still capable of beating Alec right? And Gobstones, they won this term and they'll keep it that way next term too. House Cup was no problem as well, because Kat decided to finally do ALL the homework and attend (plus recite and not daydream) classes. Earning those points was crucial to this Slytherin-Hufflepuff race next term. Bring it on.

That made a lot more sense to her. She wondered why Dylan had done it then, because honestly, she couldn't see anyone doing extra things and manual labor for free. "Really? That's pretty cool," she admitted. She could see why he'd put in so much effort now. Bliss' family didn't do that, she either got things just by asking or didn't get them. That was it. "Looks like you're going to get it then, huh?" She added.

"Not as many as you'd think, but yeah .. still plenty," she nodded in agreement. Bliss watched carefully as West's eyes wandered to the Gryffindor table, then the 'Claws table. She lets her stray quickly once more to the Lions, before meeting West' eyes once again. She bit her lip and nodded to some unspoken question and stood up. "I'll see you on the train then?" It less a question and more of a statement. Quickly, she leaned in and gave him a kiss before turning away and heading to her house table. She wrapped her arms around herself.

"Yeah it'll be great." Pretty much when he wasn't with his friends this summer, that's what he'd be doing with his spare time. Especially since Aspen was running off. He made a slight face at the thought.

Yep. He wasn't shocked that Bliss had her goodbyes, even some for just the summer probably. She was popular and well liked and stuff like that. He smiled at her. "Yeah, I'll save you a seat, or you can if you find one first." He watched her go and then picked up the bag of jelly babies.

And pretty much got down to the serious business of inhaling them.

The chatter in this side of the Hall was like soothing humming of bees and bugs. You don't hear it so closely from their table in front. He managed to avoid tripping students with his walking cane so far, and one of the running ones almost caused a tragic collision if Botros hadn't hugged the stick to his chest and out of the boy's way. So far so good though. He walked on to the Snakes' table and with a big smile on his face searched the faces for the Captain.

Oh! Odessa, too. Ab speed!cane!walked toward the boy, glad that this one seemed to be interested in the utensils more than the people sitting around. "Odessa!" He called a bit over the chatter and halted next to where the boy was seated. "I didn't expect to find a boy sitting quietly in this energetic feast." Chuckling, the man reached inside his suit's jacket looking for something. "It works to my advantage though, I need to give you something."

You know what. Botros plopped down on the bench with his legs stretched out toward the aisle. He could use a minute or two of sitting before moving to the next table. "It was a very... intense term for you this year." His eyes found the scar on the boy's forehead. His dad hadn't come to visit when they sent him a letter, and that made Botros a tad unhappy. "I want you to know that you did really well in Runes this term even if it wasn't published in a list." He smiled widely and leaned closer for a second before straightening up again. It was really tough to choose just one rune master from Slytherin.

"However, I do have something to give you since you seemed to be very interested in the subject." Surprise!

bHe had a mouth full of jelly babies when Botros came over, so the soon-to-be-fourth-year couldn't speak right away. Errr he had something for him? He swallowed said mouthful hurriedly. "S'okay sir, I was top for Herbology and Astronomy." And you know, top of everything and everyone in points. So there was that. Besides, the top things didn't necessarily mean the best at, it was like... most involved or something, which was different.

"Something to give me? I mean, I am real interested." Nod. He was. But he didn't expect Botros to have a thing for him.

.... it wasn't summer homework was it?

Oh, Ab wasn't surprised by that news. He nodded at that with a satisfied smile on his lips. "Great job." As for the thing, Botros retrieved a miniature stick from inside his jacket and tapped it with his magicked cane to return it to its original size. Instead of that stick, they had a wand with snakish ornament. "This," the professor handed it to Odessa gently. "... is a blank Gandr. You can carve runes on it and then mark it with whatever specific rune you want before asking someone to evoke its magic for you." His dad was an expert, right? That was the main reason Botros trusted the boy with a Gandr. "Or you can just keep it as a souvenir." It did look pretty enough.

Smiling still, Botros leaned on the table behind him as he got up to his feet again.

"Yes" Daichi nodded as he looked away from Juliet and looked at the staff table for a moment. The Headmistress didn't look so good and he felt akward as she stared around, lookimg furious?

"Wonder what's up with her?" he said to himself but loud enough. "Anyways, my brother never really talks about work. Or he does and i never really paid attemtion" he chuckled. "I think i should though , because my dad keeps telling me that when i graduate i should work at the Ministry as well but bleeh! I don't wanna!"

Piano concerts? Oh thats right, Jon Jon played the piano! "I never knew he played concerts" he said. "You think i can see one some time?" bedause that would be cool!

"The exams haven't been given yet?" he repeated. "Strange, they are before the school ends right?" or had they changed something?

Wondering when the food would appear on the table, Daichi scanned the Slytherin table with his dark brown eyes and found Sierra sitting down. Though she was graduating she did not look sad about it in Daichi's eyes. Well, some were just happy to be free he guessed. Personally when his final year ended he would cry a river and hug every person even Lafay

"Congrats on graduating, Sierra!" he called from the other side of the table, still seated next to Juliet. Why get up if you could shout right?

Had Daichi asked a weird question? Because it seemed that Gary had to think for a moment.
But then again, this was a future they were talking about and you'd never know what the future brings.

He should totally write that down!...

"Well, if you find a job in Diagon Alley i'll be a costumer" he smiled.


And on another note: "Hello Professor Botros" he greeted when the old man came to their table.

West watched with a great deal of interest and took the offered wand, examining it as the Professor explained. "That's real cool." His own gandr? that was awesome! Not that he was sure what he'd put on it, he'd have to look into it he supposed, really think about it, its purpose.

"Thanks professor." He smiled up at the old man. This was much better than being on some list.

Having finished her supper and wanting to get some more reading done before she left on the train tomorrow, Orr got up and headed for the door.

On the way, she spotted West over at the Slytherin table and took a detour.

She came skipping up to the table, all uber merry and happy and said in a singsing voice, "Hiya, West! Happy that we've finished third year?"

Aurora just nodded - if school was boring she didn't want to think about what university would be like... but she didn't mention that, she was trying to think positively. Ha. Not that she ever managed to stay positive about anything, but she was trying.

She watched Theodore quietly, a little smile on her face as he wrote on the back of her his mask. He was so sweet... Rora's Boy! So... aww... She hugged him once more, not crying or anything - not quite - but she was touched so she wanted to hug him. She grinned at him when he assured her head wouldn't let her down - it was a good thing too, else Hogwarts would be left unprotected from the bad guys. And then... oh. Aurora suppressed a smile and nodded - how come all the guys in her life seemed to think he was going to hurt her? Oh well, it was sweet of them to want to protect her.



Mmmm this was her favourite place in the world - right here in Richard's arms. Aurora grinned when he spoke and squeezed him a little harder. "Good, cause that would make going on holiday a little difficult..." she said, giggling. After all, if he said goodbye now then how were they supposed to organise everything?

I love you too, pretty girl... "That's good." she said with a giggle, ignoring the world around her. She felt safe here, with his strong arms around her - it almost felt like nothing bad could ever happen, like she didn't have to grow up. Mmm and she could have this feeling forever. Hehe. She glanced around to check there were no teachers watching - though really, what could they do to her now? Best not to think about that - and stood on her tiptoes to kiss Richard softly.

She stood down again and grinned up at him, "You're the best." But she'd caught something out of the corner of her eye when she'd looked around. Someone. She turned her head to look at Mordred and raised an eyebrow, she hadn't seen him all term. AGAIN! So instead of being all emotional and happy about seeing him she was kind of annoyed. She hardly moved from standing with Richard and just looked at Mordred - she'd miss him, a lot, he was like a brother, but he never even SPOKE to her anymore. "Oi, Mordaunt - you better write to me." she said pointedly. After all, if he didn't... "Or else I'll send you a howler every day." She gave him a stern look, which turned into an amused grin after a few moments. But anyway, he hadn't given up time for her over the year, so she wasn't going to give up her last few moments as a Hogwarts student for him unless he convinced her. So there. She turned back to Richard and grinned up at him. "We should sit down."

Hearing the word graduate, Sierra instinctively turned her head. Oh, look--it was Gary! Sierra could remember a time when she had a crush on the Head Boy, but she'd gotten over that. She and Kennedy had gotten back together, and from that point on, she was pretty much a one-boy kind of girl. "Of course I am," she said with a grin. "No more classes and homework--it's brilliant! How about you? What are you doing after graduation anyway?"

"Hey, Kat," Sierra said, turning her head toward her teammate. "Thanks! I'm excited." She looked sort of thoughtful for a moment, like a million thoughts were suddenly running through her head. "I'm hoping to go pro, but...no offers yet. Dad says it's a little too early anyway. What with me just graduating." she shrugged, then deciding to change the topic said, "So good luck on the team next year. You guys will get that cup this time."

"Thanks, Daichi," Sierra said, giving her co-prefect an upward nod of her head. "So I never said this, but it was cool being prefect with you. You do our house proud next year." Not that he hadn't this year. He had. Sierra just wanted to leave him with those words of encouragement.

Rich kept gently stroking Aurora's red hair a bit more as she spoke. Her beauty was really distracting however he did his best to pay attention to what she was saying. The words made him smile. ''We will never say goodbye'' he said and nodded confidently...yet he was not sure if he really believed that or not with the things that would be happening. He just knew that he did not want to.

When he heard someone else pronouncing his name, he looked towards the direction only to see Kat. He smiled at the younger Slytherin. ''Kitty Kat'' he uttered before laughing ''It's good to see you.'' adding his words a grin, he turned back to Aurora.

He was the best.

''That i know of'' now his grin was bigger. Merlin...he thought he started to feel better now. Maybe nothing was going to be difficult at all. It was going to be just one term without her and then he was going to have her for good. Just one school term was nothing compared to a lifetime, was not it? Or...was he just trying to make himself feel better with such things? There was no way to know, he just had to experience and see. When his girl kissed him, he snapped out of his thoughts and just focused on it kissing her back. And now he did not care if they were in the Great Hall...until
she called some other guy's name. He looked back to see who she was speaking to. Mordaunt...the name sounded familiar but he did not know the guy at all. Was he a friend? Well...no? Because he never had seen the dude around Rora before. After a moment of eyeing him, the blonde Slytherin boy thought he saw him at the train before. The train to school for this term or the previous one, he could not make sure. Whoever he was, now he needed to know about him if he kept enough place in Aurora's life to make her want letters from him.

Jealousy? No...he felt jealous before but this had nothing to do with it. She spoke to the dude hugging him so things were obvious here. He was just being protective. When she suggested sitting, he silently nodded and sat down making room for her next to him. ''He does not look unfamiliar. Who was that? A friend or...who?''

West looked up from speaking with the professor and smiled. "Sure, summer's gonna be the best." Not that he was in nearly so cheerful a mood as Orr but that was understandable given recent events. He was happy though. Because impending food. And really, he wasn't about to get cut up over people graduating.

Not even his sister. But then he was purposely not thinking about that.

Dylan entered the Great Hall...not focusing too much on making an entrance (as he usually did). His head was down, a clear sign that he was actively NOT trying to see anyone. The Slytherin was in a foul mood...It was to be expected since he'd been one of the ones who'd worked so hard for something this term...and then at the end, falling short.

Not that he wasn't happy for Hufflepuff. They were a dedicated and impressive bunch. It just sucked losing. That was all.

Approaching the table, he seen most of his teammates already present and did a mandatory head!nod!acknowledgement to them. Especially for West and Theo...West was sitting with Bliss, though...and Dylan didn't want to be around it at the moment. Relationships of others just happened to annoy the mess out of him lately...

So...yea.

Spying Sierra, he figured she was safe to sit near...and walked over, nodding his head. Duck and Rush were sitting near her, as well.......Rush? Legit, Dylan thought he'd left early..."Hey, man. Congrats on graduating."...

"Sierra, mind if I join you?"

The boy got a few back pats, "Sure." And then he saw the Captain approach the table with his head kept down. Huh. Not the kind of look he fancied seeing someone like Montmorency with. Botros clutched his cane and moved to where the boy was heading...

... "Captain Montmorency!" He said it with a French accent even. Ab was pretty sure he taught a couple of French Montmorency's before. They weren't as brilliant as this one was though. "Good evening, are you feeling alright?" The professor was a bit worried now. WHY was one of his rune masters not in a hyper!happy mood today?

Yes. She did mind...

Sierra just wasn't that friendly of a person, and whoever this was, was clearly in a better mood than she was fond of. Glancing up, she saw Dylan, and her mood completely changed. Dylan could, of course, join her anytime. She was always in the mood for co-captain and...truth-be-told, friend. She didn't have too many of those.

"Captain," she said, patting the seat next to her. He seemed sort of down, and she had a feeling she knew why. "Dylan, look, I'm bummed about those points, too. You gave it your all. Really, you did." She cast a glare toward the Puffers. Her final year here, and they lose to the Puffers. "Do me a favor and demolish them next year..."

Offering his favorite Seventh Year a grin, Dylan took a seat and sighed. Trust that Sierra would know what was bothering him. They'd all worked extremely hard this term...and his team knew better than anyone that he had a tendency to take these things as personal failure. It was always that feeling of...I should have done more...

"I know...It's not going to be the same without you on the pitch with us." It was Sierra...She was a fierce lady and a girl after his own heart...which was winning...At hearing that last, Dylan snorted. "You have my word that we'll do the absolute best we can..."...which pretty much meant that it didn't matter WHAT it took. They'd do what was necessary to win.

Nothing else would be acceptable.

...THEN he heard a familiar voice and turned towards it...BLINK. Professor Botros was sitting at their table? How had he missed that...?

"Professor..." Not being able to maintain his soured expression in the face of his favorite professor, the Slytherin Captain offered a small smile. "...I dislike losing, sir. It goes against my beliefs to be anything but the best." Honest Dylan was honest. What else could he say...That didn't mean he wasn't happy for the Puffers, though...It just broke his heart a little. "...I'll get over it..." He totally would...Summer would wash the slate clean and next term, Dylan would come back with all the other Slytherins and OWN THIS THING.

Ahem. "How are you, Professor? You look well."

Aaah! That explains it. Botros looped an arm around the captain's shoulders and patted on his shoulders in a manly way, "I hardly call that losing, you're in second place and with very few points apart." Pat pat pat. Oh and yes, he was well enough. The professor reached inside his jacket and fetched the rectangular wooden piece he meant to give the boy. "I am quite fine, yes. It's been a great year this term." He meant this genuinely.

However, that was not why the professor came here for. "You did so well in Runes this term, captain, I'm very pleased with your efforts that got you on top of class." He handed him the rectangular piece with a green ribbon wrapped around it. "This is a copy of the list, carved into this fold-able wood in Elder Futhark. It turns to English if you concentrate enough though." Botros was pretty proud and happy with his little creation. "I collect souvenirs, it's one of my guilty pleasures throughout the years." He chuckled lightly before standing up, leaning on his cane and the table. "I don't doubt that this milestone would only give you more motivation to win next term." He was talking about the top house now, a crooked smile was etched on his mouth.

His eyes found the captain's companion and he recognized her from her brother. "Miss Greingoth! Congratulations on finishing your Hogwarts education." Even if she wasn't as bright in Runes as her brother. What a shame. "Send my regards to your brother for me? I didn't spot him at his house's table."

He turned back to Montmorency again, "Try and enjoy the food, captain, and do not exhaust yourself too much before your journey home tomorrow." Was it just him or did the boy grow an inch since the start of this term, too? He didn't look as boyish...

Sierra sort of looked nostalgic for a moment as she thought about how she'd never play Quidditch here at Hogwarts again. She hadn't really thought hard about that until now, but as she sat next to her captain and talked about a time on the pitch without her, she couldn't help but think about it.

"It's going to feel so strange, Dylan," she said, looking up at him. "Quidditch has just always been a part of me, and it seems so wrong to think about a time without the team. I want to go pro, though." If a team would pick her up. "You have to promise to come see me play." She smirked when he mentioned they'd do their best. "I have every bit of faith in you."



Hearing her name called in such a way, Sierra had this sudden feeling she was in some sort of trouble. She looked cautiously at the Runes professor but realized he was just congratulating her. "Thanks, Professor," she said with a smile. Then her eyebrows wrinkled inward. Huh? "...but I don't have a--..." Oh, wait. She did have a brother, didn't she? After so many years with it just being her, her mom, her dad, and her little sister, Sierra tended to forget there were family members outside those four.

"Oh, right--Alex," she said. "We don't live together, but I'm sure I'll see him around. I'll tell him for you."

There was Mr Captain, all late and bummed out like Whoa!

we'll get them next term Captain no worries there cause Ariana was actually going to Try, and try hard which was a BIG deal you know cause Effort. Now that the whole team was there and sitting in the same area ish she decided NOW she would unveil her Box of secrets! she looked to those around her and noticed they were all Bummed a bit about the points

"we'll get them next year." she said just moments after Dylan but to no one in particular. Anywho "But lets admit though we didn't win the cup we had a good quidditch season, yeah?" since they were all there and the box of secrets. She eyed the box, "And we're losing of of our greatest beaters." yeah she was a suck up but she wasn't trying to do it, it just happened . :Meep:

"Anyway. I didn't want us to go unnoticed even if we didn't win the cup SO..." and then she opened the box, which she charmed with the undetectable extension charm to fit them all in. she liked that charmm.. just a bit too much maybe. and she pulled the firstone out. "Odessa" she said reading the back and handing it to him. she beamed and continued on till every jacket was out. "My mum made them.. she has a lot of time on her hands and makes lots of jackets and silly things." she said in case someone asked. Maybe someone would notice she didn't pull one for hudson.. welll because she already gave hudson her's days ago.

Now they All had "team" jackets.. and they could be more awesome then they already were.... if that were possible

Huhwhat?

There was fabric in his face. West pulled his eyes away from the Gryffindor table and blinked at Ariana for a good long moment before taking the offered.... jacket? He spread it out, and then realised what it was.

"Ari this is great!"

Peyton beamed in Kat's direction and skipped over to her side. She was a bit disappointed with the lack of food and seriously hoped the Headmistress would get her speech over with and make the food appear. She was hungryyyyy.

She sat next to Kat and glanced around. "How've you been? Excited for summer?" Because she sure was. She was especially looking forward to her brother's wedding. Eeep!

Peyton eyebrows rose with interest at Ariana's box. She wasn't listening, just STARING at the box. What's in the box, eh? Were there bunnies in there? Was she getting one? Hmm? HMMM? Okay, Ariana couldn't possibly guess Peyton wanted a pet rabbit, but it sure would be lucky if she did.

She blinked repeatedly when Ariana pulled something out of the box. It wasn't bunnies, it was something WAY better than that.

ASALDKFJDSL!!

For a moment Peyton just blinked at the gift. And blinked some more. Then a massive smile took over her face. "Wow! This is AWESOME!" And her tiny little heart was swelling and swelling. Peyton felt the start of a friendship. Because of course, how can you NOT be friends with someone who gave you a gift like THIS? She quickly put the jacket on and twisted her neck to see the back of it.

IT HAD HER NAME! OH MY MERLIN!

She was definitely showing this to her father. He was going to be SO jealous. "Thanks, Ariana!" Eeeeeeeeeep!

End of the term feast.

The most bittersweet day ever, that was how Tiffany had always been registering this. She was glad that she could finally be away from school and the reach from her professors and embrace the beautiful summer awaiting, especially when she was going to spend this summer break with Juliet. It made the whole vacation sound a lot more fantastic and worth looking forward to. However, knowing that the lions didn't get the House Cup nor the Quidditch Cup this year, she was extremely upset about that. Being a lioness, she had to admit that she had not been that active during this term because she had been focusing on her studies and OWLs more than anything else. She could hardly have time for leisure so...please excuse her for her in-activeness. Worse still, she would have to say goodbye to all the graduates. And it was the worst part of all.

Tiffany headed towards the Slytherin table with her usual humming tune. She decided to be there not because of the fact that she wanted a cheery chat with her snake friends. She was there with a purpose, one special thing that she had to do before they got onto the train. Gerald Rush. Her brother. He was graduating this year and the lioness simply found it hard to let him go although they were still having a row and perhaps he would ignore her when she called but she felt like she had to go and wave a farewell to him and...make an apology. She spotted him talking to some of his fellows happily over the table. Was he happy that he could leave the school? Was he happy that he could not see his sister again?

Pouting childishly, she walked to his back and pulled his robe gently so that he would turn away and noticed that she was there, waiting for a hug from him. Tiffany looked down and stared at her small pinky baggy that was in her hands before she could tell him what she had prepared.

Graduation... must be nice come to think of it. It's like your very own freedom. You get to use magic anytime and anywhere because you're basically of age already. Apparate whenever you want to. That's the dream, right? Juliet nodded with a smile to the apple boy. "any specialty after this?" and by that it may mean work or maybe university before work.


what's up with her?

Juliet's eyes followed where Daichi was looking at and spotted a not-so good headmistress. She looks quite different, it's probably stress. People at that age do stress a lot. Juliet shrugged "Hope she's not too stressed or something" she replied to Daichi.

Cue, laugh. Daichi's relationship with his brother is really funny, or at least to Juliet it is. She has never met him but she already thinks his brother is cool. How would Juliet really know? She doesn't have any siblings and aside from that, her cousin and her barely see each other. "It's still your decision though" Juliet looked at him this time "Our parents can only give us all the advice they want but in the end it will always be up to us with the decisions we take" she smiled not knowing what she just said. Juliet isn't always like this, the one to give advice and whatnot.

One time?

Juliet grinned "Of course you can. This summer he has somewhere in Ireland" Juliet would invite Daichi over and this would be like a surprise waiting to happen. That is, if Daichi wants to go all the way to Ireland for this.

The Head Boy also seemed to be glad he was graduating, like some others felt like too. Except maybe Rora, but obviously the redhead and the blonde were too different people.

Yeah, the regular thanks. "You're welcome," Kat returned his smile too. And next term. Did he have to remind her that she was going to be a sixth year this coming September? "And... er, thanks. We'll grab all three cups next term, no problem." Kat was so sure of it. Dylan was still capable of beating Alec right? And Gobstones, they won this term and they'll keep it that way next term too. House Cup was no problem as well, because Kat decided to finally do ALL the homework and attend (plus recite and not daydream) classes. Earning those points was crucial to this Slytherin-Hufflepuff race next term. Bring it on.

It's one of the reasons why I call you that, But thanks for letting me call you Garrett anyway...?

He just slightly chuckled at her. "Well. you're welcome...?" said him nodding at her. He'd never officially let her calling him Garrett or something like that but he was too lazy to complain. Yeah, in the end, he wouldn't mind about that.

"Good girl." He said as she was determined to do better for the next term. "And you're doing great for being a keeper. Keep up the good work." Take it as a compliment, okay? Gerald Rush wasn't a nice person who loved to give a good compliment to people.

"Well, if you find a job in Diagon Alley i'll be a costumer" he smiled.

His co-prefect was very funny, he admit that.

"Well, I'll appreciate that, Daichi. But I don't think I'm gonna work as a shopkeeper in Diagon Alley." he said. But who knew? Gary wouldn't mind about any job. He might apply for Ministry, working as a shopkeeper or any other job as long as he could earn much money for that. Typical job-seeker, right? Let's see.

"Actually.. I'm starting to work part-time in a coffee shop in London actually." Suddenly he remembered that he sent an application to a famous-muggle coffee shop which was located in London and they accepted him.

No more classes and homework--it's brilliant!

Well, seemed like there's another person who was happy to be a graduate. "Yeah, I am." He nodded and agreed with her. That's one of the other positive things to graduate. No more class, homework, ready to face a good future and work to earn so much money. So.. fun! Yeah, it is.

What are you doing after graduation anyway?

Typical common question that usually be asked to a fresh-graduate, huh? "I need to get a job." He answered. Any job to be exact, because he wouldn't mind as long as he could earn money from it. "How about you?"

Another one who congratulated him for graduating. Oh, look who's that? the Captain. "Thanks, man." He nodded. "And good luck for the next term."

Any specialty after this?

"Well, I'm going to look for a job." he replied to that girl. "Haven't thought about any specific job, but I'm gonna start to work part-time this summer in a coffee shop." It sounded hard, but fun. But at least he could do something productive this summer, especially after graduation. Maybe he would look for a steady job which is more than just work in a coffee shop. Hmm...

SPOILER!!: Tiffany..

The most bittersweet day ever, that was how Tiffany had always been registering this. She was glad that she could finally be away from school and the reach from her professors and embrace the beautiful summer awaiting, especially when she was going to spend this summer break with Juliet. It made the whole vacation sound a lot more fantastic and worth looking forward to. However, knowing that the lions didn't get the House Cup nor the Quidditch Cup this year, she was extremely upset about that. Being a lioness, she had to admit that she had not been that active during this term because she had been focusing on her studies and OWLs more than anything else. She could hardly have time for leisure so...please excuse her for her in-activeness. Worse still, she would have to say goodbye to all the graduates. And it was the worst part of all.

Tiffany headed towards the Slytherin table with her usual humming tune. She decided to be there not because of the fact that she wanted a cheery chat with her snake friends. She was there with a purpose, one special thing that she had to do before they got onto the train. Gerald Rush. Her brother. He was graduating this year and the lioness simply found it hard to let him go although they were still having a row and perhaps he would ignore her when she called but she felt like she had to go and wave a farewell to him and...make an apology. She spotted him talking to some of his fellows happily over the table. Was he happy that he could leave the school? Was he happy that he could not see his sister again?

Pouting childishly, she walked to his back and pulled his robe gently so that he would turn away and noticed that she was there, waiting for a hug from him. Tiffany looked down and stared at her small pinky baggy that was in her hands before she could tell him what she had prepared.

The Head Boy spotted a girl in Gryffindor robe who walked to the Slytherin table. He frowned, she wasn't walking to the wrong table, was she? But then he realized that Gryffindor girl was very familiar to him. A familiar face that he hadn't seen since Christmas.

Tiffany

Well, what was she doing here? Looking for someone? He didn't think that she wanted to see him after that fight. But... yeah, even she refused to see him, he had to speak to her. At least just saying a goodbye to here.

Leaving his seat, Gary walked toward her. "Hey there." He smiled and greeted her. "Looking for someone?" He asked. She didn't change much, still acting childish and pouty. He's gonna missed his little fake sister. Wait, did she refuse to talk to him?
