Hufflepuff Indoor Garden


credit: hermionesclone

Located on the far wall of the common room, one will find the indoor garden. A variety of beautiful flowers and plants sit in glass containers of all shapes and sizes, some seemingly growing right from the wall itself. If you've got a green thumb, the small work bench will give you the opportunity to do some planting on your own. The charms on the space ensure the temperature and lighting are perfect for the plant life. Not into Herbology? (HMMPH!) On the floor, an array of tree stumps are arranged in a semi circle so why not come sit and enjoy the serene space, instead? Either way, this new addition to the room is one you're sure to enjoy.

Paul had his banjo strung over his shoulder, a HUGE jar the size of his head, and a backpack strung over his over shoulder. He was coming up to the Castle to spend some time in the Puffer dorm. See his students, make sure the garden was okay, etc.

He set all of his stuff down and made his way around all the plants, making sure they were being taken care of. He trusted his badgers, though, and it looked like everything was just fine! It made him smile, and he took a seat on a tree stump. Ahhh.

Time to play.

Esme wasn't a stalker. Honestly.

She had been heading towards the common room when he entered it before her. Mere coincidence. And - and he had his BANJO which meant that maybe he was going to play for them again. Weren't they lucky to have a musical man looking over them? Maybe she would tell him about her gift...

As he headed towards the garden, she continued following after him. "Can you play an upbeat song?" she asked. He was taking requests, right?

Kaylee was sitting in the common room reading a book that her sister bought her when they were in Diagon Alley, when she saw that their Head of House, Professor Myers, walk in. She kept a curious eye on him as he walked over to the indoor garden, and sat down on a stump.

'What is he doing?' she wondered to herself. 'Is he about to play his banjo?'. She eyed said instrument with curiosity Some of her fellow hufflepuffs said that he plays the banjo, but she has never heard him play.

The curiosity got the better of her, so she stood up, and with her book safely in her bag, she walked over to the garden. [B]"Hello Professor." Hi Esme" She said addressing the older Hufflepuff girl that came in behind the professor. Turning back to Professor Myers "Are you going to play for us? What kind of songs do you know?"

Two little badgers had already congregated over. HEHEHEHE. Paul smiled. "Esme, Kaylee...it is very nice to see you both." He aimed his wand at the jar in the middle of the stumped area and a fire began in the jar, but stayed contained IN the jar. "I thought once I started playing, a few of you might join me--" he chuckled and pulled out a bag of marshmallows from his backpack. He threw the bag at Esme. "There are some rods to stick the marshmallows on. You can roast them above the fire in the jar."

There.

"And yes, I will play you guys a song..." he grinned. "An upbeat song...hmm...lets see..." he strummed his banjo gently. "I KNOW juuuuuust what to play--"

And he began to gently play "You Are My Sunshine." A song hopefully every knew! Paul didn't sing, but hummed and tapped his foot to the beat.

As Kaylee joined them, Esme smiled. Soon they would have a huge group of Hufflepuffs demanding to hear Professor Myers play. Hopefully he wouldn't mind a big audience. Somehow she doubted that it would be a problem. "Hello!" she said to her Housemate before turning her attention to the Professor.

"You are the best Head of House ever!"

Not only was he playing music for them, but they could have marshmallows!!

Happily, Esme caught the bag of marshmallows before preparing one to be roasted. She offered the bag to Kaylee so that she could have one herself and then placed hers over the fire. She hummed along as he started playing 'You are My Sunshine'.

Kay sat down next to Esme. "I agree with Esme! You are the best!" she said grinning at their Head of the House. She took the bag of marshmallows from the older Hufflepuff girl with a "Thanks!"

She pulled out a marshmallow from the bag, and places the bag on the ground between her and Esme. She placed it on a rod and hold it over the fire.

As she was watching the marshmallow turn until a golden brown, she listen to Professor Myers start to play on his banjo. She gasp when she recognized the song. Her mother used to sing this song to her sister and Kay, when they were little.

She smiled a little sadly at the memory, but she start to sing it softly.
"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey...."

Pffffft. Paul felt his cheeks flush as he played, and shook his head. "I am not the best. I assure you of THAT." He grinned, though, and kept strumming...especially as Kaylee began to sing. And as SHE began to sing, so did Paul...and he gestured at Esme to start singing, too!

This was such a party!

"You'll never KNOW DEEAAAAR how much I LOOOOOVE you, so please don't taaaaake, my sunshine....AWAY!"

It was such a happy little song! Paul finished it off and then clapped with them both. "VERY good harmonizing, you guys!" And...Paul was hit with a BRILLIANT idea. JUST BRILLIANT. "So...since I'm in a band and we put out albums...what if all of my badgers RECORDED A SONG WITH US?" he asked, his eyes all big. "We're blue grass...so...it's a little folksy...but I'm sure....we could make it work somehow...and...pick a nice song!"

Esme's smile grew as Kaylee thanked her. This was going to be a lot of fun, and she hoped that more Badgers came in joined in soon. If not, they were going to miss out on all of the excitement.

As soon as her marshmallow was browned, she pulled it out of the fire and began to eat. Yummy. Sometimes nothing could beat roasted marshmallows. She would definitely be eating more of them. Where was her sister? Juno was missing out.

"You need a badge that says 'Best Head of House Ever'!" Yep. That was Esme's opinion, and she was sticking to it. Smirking, she took out another marshmallow and put it over the flame.

Should she join in with the singing even if she didn't think she was very good at it? Oh, why not... It seemed like fun and it was just the three of them. "You'll never know deeeear how much I looooooove you, so please don't taaaaake, my sunshine away!" WOOOO! she clapped along when it was finished.

He was in a band???

Esme was impressed, especially seeing that her mom had been in one when she was younger. "Can we pleeeeeeeeease do that?? Please????" It would make her Badger heart so happy.

Kay nodded her head in agreement of Esme's suggestion about the badge for Professor Myers. Maybe a Christmas present? 'Hmmmmm'

The little girl smiled and clapped when the three of them finished the song. "That is one of my favorite songs! she exlcaimed! "My mom used to sing it to me when I was little." She said softly, before turning back to her marshmallow, which was finally at the perfect golden-brown color. She pulled it off and bite in to it, and then ate the rest of it a few seconds. She licked her fingers clean before grabbing another marshmallow from the bag to repeat the process.

Her eye widened when she listen to her professor. "You are in a band? What is the name of it? and then... "You want us to record a song?!?!" Kaylee couldn't help but bounce up and down, her curly hair moving in the same moment. "That sounds like fun!" Wait until Michelle hears about this!!!

Esme's comment made Paul blush. "NO...no badges, please. I'm just doing my job to the best of my ability--nothing special, I assure you." He didn't want all that extra attention or credit.

He turned to Kaylee and smiled. "My mum used to sing it to me as well. I like to sing it to my nieces and nephews..." Since he didn't have children to shower in love. He didn't know what else to play right now...so he merely played a soft and gentle version of a song from his band's second album entitled, 'You're the Blue to my Cheese.'

"And yes, I do want you to record a song! I'll make it happen! Hopefully everyone's parents are okay with it...I'll send a notice at some point." It all sounded WONDERFUL! He set his banjo down and pushed a marshmallow onto a rod for himself, shoving it above the fire. He wanted one, too! "How are you two liking school, then?"

But... BADGES. Pout. Esme wanted to give him one, but it seemed like he wouldn't have worn it. Didn't mean that they couldn't do something else, however... "Fiiiiiine. How about a special flower?" That shouldn't be a problem since he was the Plant Man.

Yep, she was full of great suggestions.

"My mom used to sing it to me and my sister when we were little! It is like the Hufflepuff theme song." Okay, maybe not... but it was still HAPPY and that was a very Hufflepuff thing.

The next song wasn't one she was familiar with, so she wondered if it was one of the ones done by his band. "My mom will definitely be okay with it. She used to be in a band herself. Lead singer." Smiling, she ate her marshmallow. Things were looking good and she had no complaints other than that evil hag.

Default Would anyone like a sad Brady?
Bre Bear | Asherine | Whisper | Kemmy | Raeney | Madyra | Bumble Bee

He couldn't sleep. What was the point of sleep again? The eleven year old had, had another nightmare about the stupid hag again. Honestly the boy was surprised that he hadn't woken up his dormmates when he had yelled or maybe he did wake them up? He had ran so fast out of the dorm and to the indoor garden that he didn't even have time to see if he had woken them up.

At this point Bradson didn't care if he had woken people up from his screams. He was sick of these nightmares but he was also sick of having to look over his should every second or two. He was becoming paranoid. He had a feeling that the hag was somewhere in this castle but he didn't know where. He knew that she would be after him.

He was dueling against Mel, but they were only laughing and shooting sparks at each other ... Then she turned into Ms Black, who was stirring a boiling potion and cackling ... Then he heard yelling. That was when he woke up.

Carl sat up with a bolt, seeing from the corner of his eye somebody running out of the Dorm. He could not go back to sleep again, not when he sensed that something was wrong. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes and replacing it with genuine worry, he walked out into the Common Room.

And there was Brady, in the Indoor Garden, looking somewhat shaken. Carl approached him carefully, in case he wanted to be left alone. "Brady? Are you okay?" He asked as he took a seat next to him. He wanted to be of help, if it was something serious.

Everything began to bother him, he hated the fact that was now looking over his shoulder more than ever. Bradson could have sworn that he was losing his mind but he had a feeling that he was too young to lose his mind. What did have that would make him lose his mind for?

Oh. Yeah. The hag for starters. Brady was a mess right now. Just a complete and utter mess. He was still feeling like the hag was watching him. The Scottish boy knew that he was first on her list of children she was going to eat when she comes back. That thought just made matters worse.

As Brady was lost in his own thoughts he jumps a little in the air when he had heard someone say his name. He say the boy sit next to him. "No." The first year said shaking his head.

Oops, it looked like he had startled the boy. Carl was about to apologize when he heard the reply. It made him furrow his brows - what had made him wake up yelling in the middle of the night? Couldn't be just a nightmare. He stayed silent, thinking.

Then, he remembered the Hag and what she had done to his dorm mate. If he was tossed into a cauldron, about to be eaten, he would have been frightened to death. That must be it.

He placed a consoling hand on Brady's shoulder. "Do you want to talk about it? Is it ... because of the Hag?" Heck, he was so bad at this trying-to-make-his-friend-feel-better thing.
