Across from Hogwarts' main doors stand four giant hourglasses filled with gemstones. The stones in the bottom indicate the current number of house points each house has earned so far.

Sure enough, the thirteen year old couldn't help but laugh at the -15. Suddenly Noel was REALLY curious as to why Ravenclaws lost points already.

Points. So house points was a thing here.

How LAME was that???

Maggie wrinkled her nose slightly as she slowly approached the hourglasses. So theirs was the green ones, right? Because their house was the green house. The Snake house. Slytherin. She'd got that. Only what good did it do them if they were in the lead? Wait...was there something TO win here? WAS THERE??? Would they get a prize??

....also why were two of the OTHER (hehe) houses with minuses? They were pretty bad at this point earning thing, huh? Lucky it wasn't hers.

Someone was laughing. She turned her head to see who it was and gave him a mildly curious look. Okay, not mildly. VERY curious.

Was someone staring at him? At first Noel tried to ignore it, but then he STARED back. He just wasn't the ignoring type of guy, you know?

One of his brow rose, and then he spoke: "Do I have something on my face, little girl?" Yes. He said that. She wasn't really so little but she had firstie written all over her face. Also, he had never seen her before, so yeah, kthnxbye.

Little girl?

"I'm eleven!" So she wasn't a little girl anymore. EXCUSE YOU! Maggie narrowed her eyes, straightening up slightly. See? He wasn't exactly taller than her. Not by a lot anyway. And how old was he anyway? 6?

Oh wait, but he'd asked her something. "You don't." Well he did. "You laughed. Why did you laugh?"

"Every firstie is eleven, I know" he grinned. He saw those narrowed eyes, and grinned wider - she was offended by the 'little girl' part, didn't she? "Well. Give me a name, so I don't call you 'little girl' again," he told her, holding out his hand for her to shake: "I am Noel"

Oh good. He didn't have a breakfast on his face, she was just staring because he had been laughing. He pointed at the hourglass - "the ravenclaws, they are behind already. That amuses me,"

Why....was he saying those words?

Maggie blinked and gave him a confused look. "I'm not every firstie." She was UNIQUE, excuse you again! She took a step closer as if to prove that. Couldn't he seeeee????? She was a lot more awesome than the other firsties. Okay, Dante was a pretty close second. But apart from him the other first years were all waaaaaaay behind her.

"Magdalena Natalie Traulton." He'd asked for her name, she'd give him her name. She put her hand in his outstretched one.

Her eyes followed the direction he was pointing at. Oh. So he'd noticed that too. It WAS amusing in a way. Her lips curled into a small smirk even though she tried to hide it when she looked back at him. "I saw..." Pause. "What are you?"

"Why do you think that?" Noel asked, turning completely in the girl's direction. Yes, she now completely had his attention. "Why are you different?" He had first period off, he could do this. They could have this conversation.

Wow. That was a big name. "I like it," he said, giving her a firm shake before saying: "Would you prefer I call you Ms Traulton or do you have a nickname?" Magdalena. BIG name for a little girl.

"Oh I am a Hufflepuff," Noel told her, sounding completely and utterly indifferent. Because, yes he may not outwardly hate being a hufflepuff anymore but it didn't mean in some corner of his heart he still didn't resent it. He was okay with it. Okay, but not really. "What about you?"

Oooh. She had his full attention now, huh?

Maggie smirked, clearly liking it. "I'm awesome." She nodded. And that clearly implied that the other firsties weren't. "And pretty." Obviously. She didn't have to tell him that, right? He could SEE that. Yes?

Ms. Traulton. Hmm. Maggie tilted her head to the side slightly, thinking. "I do have a nickname. But Magdalena is fine." It sounded more.....BIG WORD ALERT........sophisticated. Noel was a nice name too though.

She liked it. It sounded...French.

Hufflepuff was the yellow house, yes? Maggie looked back to the hourglasses. "That's why those two houses fail." She wiggled her fingers at the Ravenclaw and Gryffindor hourglasses, a small smirk playing around her lips. "Because they don't have us." Now he knew which house she was in, yes? Just in case he DIDN'T she twirled on the spot once and said, "Slytherin." Pretty cool, huh?

Finally, the last location. This activity was certainly a great way for Sam and Penelope to work together. Samantha read the little clue/notice whilst seeking a quick glance at the house points.

"Ready to meet up with our house mods?" Samantha asked.

Was this the end of the scavenger hunt? It had been a fun activity to do with Sam. Penelope read the clue that told them to go back to the common room. Was that it? Could they do another activity with more challenging riddles now? "I'm ready to go back to the common room!"

Sigh. Zahra had more house points this year than any other year. It was ironic, really but she was pleased with herself even still. She tapped on the glass of the Gryffindor hourglass with her wand before getting bored of that and playing an impromptu game of hopscotch on the stone tiles of the castle.

He was merely curious of the point standing and therefore was making his way towards the hourglasses for a quick glance at the numbers. He figured they were still in the lead but wanted to know by how much exactly. All untill he saw blonde hair hoping around and it felt as if all his worse fears were coming around. That was the ministers daughter and he didnt /want/ to deal with her. Not now not ever. So he tried to be slick and turn around all cool like but instead tripped on his own two feet and faceplanted in front of her........ ow.

And that's how Zahra Kettleburn came to be sitting on that boy she had briefly snogged in Diagon Alley. Hah. She wasn't real sure what he was doing on the floor, but since he was there... why not sit on him? Why not.

"Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey Jeremiah! Whaaaaaaatchuuuu doin' down there?" Poke poke.

"oomph!" what the hell?! Why was she sitting on him?! Why did girls like to do that!? Flailing his arms slightly his eyes went wide as she poked him. Merlin, this would be something to explain if anyone had walked in. "o--off" Get OFF! Who did she think she was, man. There was no way hed be able to get up and make sure his face was okay with her on him. Plus he was extremely uncomfortable.

SEND HELP!

Zahra laughed as she hopped up to her feet. She offered both of her hands down to help him get up. "Did you fall down? You don't have to be embarrassed. It happens to the best of us."

Her hands went un noticed as he picked himself up off the floor. "nooo, i chose to suddenly be on my face." sarcasm was oozing from his words as he dusted iff his trousers. "ye didnt have to........s.... sit on me." that was strange and uncomfortable for all involved well, if not all at least him. Didnt anyone have a eye on this one? He was sure she was nothing but problems. Problems he didnt much need. Was he having a panic attach? O.o

Oh.... sarcasm. Right. Right. Zahra put her rejected hands into her robe pockets and rolled the toe of her shoe on the stone below. "... you don't like me either." Zahra knew he was Gabe's BFF, but she thought since they were both Gryffindors... Sigh. "I'm not sorry so don't expect an apology."

Squint. What?! It wasnt that he liked her or didnt like her. Frankly Jeremiah didnt really have a preference on the girl. Other than her just making him want to run away for forever. "what does liking you have to do with anything?" he hadnt a clue. He folded his arms in front of him when she stated she wouldnt apologize because he thought she should. It was rude of her to just sit on him like that.

"I dunno. Everything. Why you're ...being all butthurt about me sitting on you. It's not that big of deal. You fell down and I was trying to make you not feel stupid about it." Shrug. But whatever. Zahra wasn't ever going to get used to people she didn't really know not liking her, but it was happening more and more so it stung a little less than usual.

She got out of his way so he could go see the Point Counter, probably what he was here for anyway.

LOL! What? Jere raised an eyebrow to the girl as she spoke to him. "you sitting on me...." was she for real right now? "was rude and only made it more embarrassing." the rude bit was what was getting at him. His back also hurt now from her suddenly sitting on him without him being prepared. "i just dont think you should be sitting on people you dont know." she should also apologize... he was waiting for it.

He was going to be waiting a WHILE then! LIKE TIL HE WAS GRAY HAIRED AND HUNCHED. Zahra Kettleburn wasn't sorry.

"Rude? For playing with you?" Zahra rolled her eyes. "And I do know you. I live with you. I snogged you. I eat three meals a day at the same table with you. I mean, really."

Was she still serious? .... really? "i didnt take that as playing." not at all. That wasnt how he liked to play. and no, you dont. YOU live in the girls dorms and I in the boys.... you kissed me once and if you paid attention youd know i rarely eat at our table. So really. You dont know me." not the first thing. She should just stop.he didnt even remember why he was over here.

So? Was that Zahra's fault, too? Apparently everything was. Next, it'd be her fault he fell too.

Details, details. He knew what she meant. They lived very specifically together in Gryffindor Tower.

"I'm starting to think not knowing you wouldn't be so bad." Because it's not like he was friendly, kind, or even remotely fun. So far, he was clumsy, grouchy, and a killjoy.

It was her fault he fell! If she hadnt besn there he ouldnt of tried to leave so quickly and have fallen................................... was he supposed to care though? He tilted his head just slightly at her and her words. "Its not like you knew me before so its not anything lost." merlin she was stubborn. Why wede all gryffindors he knew so damn stubborn?! No one liked a stubborn!Sally. No one.

Yes she DID! How could she NOT know someone she shared a Common Room, House table, and HOUSE with? Apparently he was an idiot.

"Well okay then. Bye now." As in, if Zahra was so awful and a complete stranger danger, why was he still standing here?

kayquilz · 10-06-2014, 03:03 AM

Lots of stairs. So many. Eden was more out of breath than before and her forehead was beading with sweat...slightly. She wiped the back of her hand on her forehead before searching around for the clue--

"JAsmine, do you see the clue?" she asked softly, and she was either too tired to see it or it honestly hard to FIND. She looked behind the hourglasses a little laughed. "AHA! I found it--" she said smugly before scanning it quickly. "OI! I we finished, Jasmine!" she said happily, and she bounced up and down a little.

THEY'D GET A PRIIIIIZE WHOOOOH.

"Come on--we can hurry up there and then relaaaaax!" she said with a smirk before gesturing for Jasmine to follow her.
