Default Laundry Room


Ever wonder where your dirty underpants wind up? Just down the corridor, not terribly far from the kitchen, the door to the laundry room can be found. What you will find in this room will, likely, not be a surprise. Within are no Muggle washing machines or dryers. Instead, front and centre, are large tubs with accompanying wash boards and sticks. A bizarre system of clothes lines fill the back of the room, beside which tables and large hampers await.

If you happen to wind up here on your House's laundry day, you will see your clothes -- hopefully labelled -- and the clothes of your fellow housemates being washed and dried by a team of house-elves. It is not uncommon to hear them bickering with each other or joining together in a motivational song to help make the job get completed quicker. First the clothes are scrubbed squeaky clean with soap and steaming hot water. They are next hung to dry and then neatly stacked on one of the large tables to be folded and placed back in the hamper to be returned to their owners.

Students are always welcome to be proactive and do their own laundry or at least lend the house-elves a hand. There sure is a lot of laundry to do!

music was again playing as the blonde slytherin practically danced around the laundry room. Who cared really that she didn’t have to do it or that the room was likely going to be a disaster the moment she left it. Sure, her dancing was more spastic than anything but she didn’t care. DING!

Now, with that sound chiming she turned and quickly moved some wet – sopping wet laundry to the dryer before adding a bundle of blankets and sheets to the washer. It was nice, the smell in here. Clean, and like fresh warm linen.

”I’ve been known for putting on a show” she sang out and twirled around and flailed her arms like she was trying to match the beat to the bassline of the song playing on the speakers. ”jaw-dropping center stage, I know -oh” she tried to do that cool glasses move by flipping them down in an Audrey Hepburn style but like always with that move it only worked with sunglasses. With eyeglasses, it only rendered you partially blind. Still, she kept up the wiggle-dancing and singing. ”but ever since cupid walk past he hit me once like a heart attack so fast and I just couldn’t let you go” the song was fun.

So fun, for a moment she just bopped around flailing even as she accidentally punched the wall and continued singing to them song. ”I got the tricks if you want to lock lips I got the moves if you want to come cruise” oh, why was she blushing? Maybe because she didn’t have the tricks but likely because she probably wasn’t alone and still, she sort-of didn’t care. Sort of.

”no I don’t want to be your best friend just let me be your new obsession dance – dance flail…dance – dance again with the accidental wall punch. It likely sounded like a horror movie was being reinacted in the room.

He needed to learn schedules. So many schedules. It almost got him to miss a couple of classes because he thought he had them memorized when, in fact, he had not. Not correctly, at least. And this time it got him to drop by the laundry room on the wrong day, it seemed, if the unfamiliar names on the labels were anything to go by.

... definitely not Gryffindor laundry day.

It seemed pretty quiet when he stepped inside the laundry room, so maybe the house elves were occupied elsewhere for the moment, and he did need his favourite hoodie. Didn't need as in didn't have anything else clean to wear, but he was the most comfortable in it, and with the new casual Fridays rule, he was going to wear it even more often.

And it didn't hurt to do his own laundry for once.

So there he was, scrubbing and splashing with a mental note to clean up after finishing - why didn't house elves use magic for this, anyway? - when he heard someone sing. He blinked in confusion, but soon shrugged it off and resumed his task, oblivious to the twirling girl someplace else in the laundry room... so oblivious that he didn't realize he was humming along the unfamiliar song. It wasn't something he liked to listen to, but he did love to sing.

Oh, this was sweet! There he was standing, a bag of washing slung over his shoulder, and in front of him was Annabeth! With sheets upon sheets hanging between them, he listened in silence, eyes watching attentively as she danced her heart out, her feet and arms flailing everywhere! For one brief moment, he considered making fun of her singing. Finally, deciding against it, he started to focus on the music more now.
Picking up the chorus lyrics and beat, he grabbed a mop and slid out from behind the white sheets dramatically. Dropping his bag of washing in the process, he raised the mop/microphone before finally booming out

Whoe, Whoe, whoe, whoe......”

Fist pumping the air, he grinned at her!

“I got the moves if you want to come cruise....” giving her a playful nudge, he flashed his mischievous grin and continued to move to the beat. He didn’t have the moves and what exactly were they going to cruise on...a school broom? Laughing now, he continued to dance, his eyes locked on hers, waiting for a reaction. Would she continue to dance? Or would she be too embarrassed.

The blonde paused the song for a moment to add a dryer sheet to her laundry when she heard the humming. oh holy flying carps! I’m not alone! She thought and then with a shrug just turned the music back on because who really cared…not her, even if she did on some level.

That is, she didn’t care until Ewan was there, with that…eye contact and the mischievous grin. ”Hey…hi, you’re…singing” she pointed out, ”not bad is it hot in here? Um…I need to fold shirts, yep,” she was squirming inside and out when she turned and spotted the hummer – oooooh maybe this’d be good for her? ”hey, hi…sorry about um – the…distraction if I distracted you” she smiled at the Gryffindor.

Wait…”is Gryffindor fun? I hope its fun,” her eyes were frantic now as she searched for something – anything to make this less awkward. ”I’m Beth, Beth—er Anabeth Greyvson everyone calls me Beth…except Chase he calls me Gumballgirl for reasons” she shrugged, ”you know Chase…from your house? About my height black hair…funny? I call him salty and I’m babbling sorry, I should go leave you two to the clothing” she began to retreat in haste when she simply tripped backwards into a tangle of sheets. This room was a trap and merlin help her this was awkward.

There was someone else singing now... a male voice...

Daehyun giggled to himself at the whole situation, finally realizing that he, too, had been humming along to the unfamiliar song when the Slytherin girl had pointed it out. He was beyond flustered at the realization, his eyes wide and his cheeks flushing a shade similar to the red on his tie. Maybe it was hot in there, like she said.

"H-hi! Um-err-no! No, music doesn't bother me!" he stuttered out, but the girl seemed to be just as flustered as he was. Even more so.

... he'd never thought it possible.

He wanted to insist that she wasn't disturbing or distracting or just introduce himself as well, but the girl he now knew was Beth turned into a bumbling mess as he discarded the hoodie he'd been scrubbing and stood up, his hands still dripping wet. He blinked in confusion as she mentioned someone named Chase from his house whom he did not know and really he thought it would only be polite to introduce himself in turn, but she was soon running and-

"Merlin, are you alright?" With quick reflexes, he dropped to his knees next to where Beth fell, though the sheets might have saved her. He wasn't going to assume, though. "Did you hurt yourself?" Boy, were they a mess.

Reese was wandering around with no direction.. The truth was he was trying to find one of those secret passageways he'd heard so much about and had yet to find.. Instead he ended up near the laundry room and heard a few voices and a VERY familiar song. So, he dusted himself off because he just KNEW Anabeth had to be inside.. She just HAD to be!


The first year badger boy started to beat box as sadly as could be to the beat of the song he had danced to in front of her the other day!.. So, naturally he was trying to be all funny and get her to laugh.. As for the other disembodied voices?.. He thought he might know the own of one, but the others?... Eh?... Not-so-much..


And in he danced to that same song.. Only this time he was showing everyone in that room what he was made of.. And he had been taking lessons for years.. And his specialty was hip hop and it wasn't likely he'd be matched by anyone his own age... Not even his older sister Rylee was as good a dancer as he was..

" Hey, Bethlebee!.. Come'ere and dance with me", he rhymed to the beat as he joined their impromptu dance party in the laundry..

Boy was this a situation now! Keeled over now, he laughed! The second year Gryffindor intertwined in the sheets with Beth. And Beth! So flustered that she was doing her best impression of a ghost! Ghoulie Greyvson! Taking a deep breath in between chuckles, he bent down to check on the two of them were okay.
"Heeeey, you two... are you going to come out from there, or do you need another hand?"

And then there was this kid. Reese. Beth's shadow! In he came, dancing his little heart out. He had to give it to him, the Hufflepuff could dance. Considering this place had house elves to do laundry, the whole world wanted to do their own laundry today.

"J'heez B, your singing is making people want to come and do laundry!" his eyes full of light innocent humour.

*HICCUP!*

*pop*

Pips noticed studentsies actually doing laundry themselves. Pips did not recognize the studentsies although he had seen them around the castle during his time to wander. *Hiccup* Wide eyes blinking, *hiccup* “Studentsies need help?” Blinking his big eyes he felt the need to step right in and help the studentsies.

Despite her best efforts, the sound of chatter and noise drew Quinn toward it. She was curious. In part because she was exploring, looking for all those secret passages and rooms that Jessa promised her. And why on earth would people be loitering around down here if it wasn't a secret....

Laundry room?

Everyone was hanging out in the laundry room. Why?

Whatever this was, Quinn had no desire really to be a part of it, and was turning to leave when she happened to recognize the people. Well, most of them. Beth, Reese, Ewan and gryffindor kid she didn't know.

Fighting off the smile, successfully this time, that always seems to want to emerge when she sees the boy, Quinn instead arched a questioning eyebrow at Beth.

Ewan got quick nod of Quinn's head. And the unknown Gryffindor boy got the full probing look over as Quinn studied him, without a word. She still wasn't sure she wanted to be a part of whatever this was.

The house elf that just popped in got a smile.

no no no no NOOOOOOOOOOOO was all Beth could feel, see, and think. Everything was no. Nope, not dealing with this right now. The blonde hadn’t meant to run – but really, she had. If she had been successful she would have hightailed it out of there like a scared chihuahua but she hadn’t been, instead she had fallen into a laundry pile.

Looking up she watched the Gryffindor boy as he said the music didn’t bother him - good. Glad, she was glad so glad…ecstatic even. No, that was a lie but, it wasn’t a lie at the same time. She was just, herself awkward and uncomfortable and utterly naked of the wall she usually put up infront of others.

Still, lion-boy was nice, he’d asked how she was. ”I’m…” she paused as she just leand back and looked up at the ceiling ”fine, embarrassed yeah but fine – sorry for…the theatrics” she added to him and then she heard it, him, Reese’s cheerful voice. Thank merlin.

”Reeeeeese make a distraction for me” she called out, because clearly a distraction was needed to get out of hamper unscathed. Merlin was she going to come out…no, no she was going to hide in that pile forever thank you very much. ”No, nope I’d rather be the laundry rooms new mascot right now Ewan thank you very much” she muttered from the pile and then she heard the POP! Of someone arriving…a house elf no doubt and merlin this was a shirt show.

Tipping her head out from the pile she saw Quinn – relief…was that relief or anguish she couldn’t tell. ”i…did the dancing and got freaked like a scared chihuahua remember Tuna? How he’d run off into things…that’s me – my new address is this laundry pile…can you have them forward my mail here Qunnity?” she asked as she started rustling her way out of the pile.

Quinn turned her eyes back onto Beth, blinking, blank and flat at her, half buried in that pile of clothes, being as overly dramatic as ever.

Right, then. Nope.

And with that, Quinn turned without a word, or expression and walked back the way she'd come. She wasn't doing this.

Really? Really? First the house elf, then Quinn? Okay, something was going on here because for all of these people to be here... now... was strange. Just strange.

Still slightly amused at Beth's expression, he turned to the house elf, "Hey, I don't suppose you could... I dunno, help these two" *Gestures to Beth and the Gryffindor* "find their feet?". Aha, he'd never seen Beth this flustered. This was amusing. Laundry room mascot? "Possibly, but you have to tell a load of Laundry jokes. How about...". Pausing for a second, he laughed aloud "Took a risk washing my clothes when there was a chance of rain. I put it all on the line". Grinning now, a cheeky monkey smile on his face... he pulled out another old joke from his repertoire. "Oooooor", trying to keep a straight face while delivering it "What do you call a nun sitting on a washing machine? Sistermatic". He couldn't help it now. Leaning against one of the large tubs, tears running down his face, he started to snicker uncontrollably.

It had been a long morning already, honestly she had no idea why her parents kept sending her back to this deity forsaken place. She definitely had no idea why her sister liked this place other than that she was stupid...which Eria already knew but STILL. Being particular and not liking the idea of so many people touching her clothes, Eria had elected to wash them herself. Otherwise she tended to wash them again anyways to get the elf and person germs off of them. Upon entry to the laundry room, she wrinkled up her nose. What is that stench...oh...children...and far too many of them for my taste. This place is going to the underworld in a fluffy pink handbasket... She walked by to start her laundry but couldn't looking at them all. "This isn't a classroom or a daycare." She casually spoke aloud to none of the toddlers in particular and started with her camisoles. Maybe they'd get the hint on their own, time to see who would make it to adulthood.

He was having a grand time trying to be the distraction that Beth had asked of him.. And apparently, he'd be the only one to try and come to her aid..Quinnie-Poo came in and turn right back around.. He didn't even get a chance to wave or say hi or anything!.. BOO! But, back to Beth... All covered in laundry she was.. Good grief.. " No change of address needed.. Here.. I'll help ya up.. " , Reese offered as he held out his hand for her.. A genuine smile on his face..

And then a house elf popped into being before them all and asked if they needed any help... Of course.. .. I'm fine.. Just out for a walk and found my way in here is all.. Thanks, Pip"


Just as things started to die down an older girl came into the laundry room with a sack of clothes and she looked like she had a huge chip on her shoulder too.. " We don't need a sitter thanks.. Betty Boop just fell into the pile.. Thanks.. ", the copper mop-topped badger baby quipped to the lady snake.

Beth just watched not even dumbfounded as Quinn walked in and then left. Poof, she was gone. Kind of like sunny cloudless days in brittain they were there for a second and then gone. Beth then turned her attention as she wiggled in the hamper (honestly possibly stuck) ”thanks, and you don’t have to do that…clean, I can help” she smiled as she started to reach toward Daehyun’s hand. That was of course, when she noticed the offered hand from Reese as well.

this wasn’t personal she didn’t want to hurt anyone so she simply stuck her hands out to both of them. This would have been odd if Ewan had reached out too…really, this move probably made her look overly confident and full of herself – but she wasn’t…not always that is.

”…thanks…lion-man and Reese” she smiled before glancing toward Ewan. ”oh please the dad jokes aren’t needed…and you spooked me earlier…unexpected eye contact isn’t…always the most fun she mainly felt that way because of all of the horrible things she had read in those myths she loved.

Pips got a kind smile before Beth turned to look at grumpzilla – okay maybe she secretly loved the girl. ”Hey Lovecraft, didn’t mean to ruin your zen-laundry area” Beth, now standing again after pulling herself up with her friends hands turned to face the burnette. ”don’t worry, I was doing laundry…some total whack job of a person left their dryer sheets laying around…really, revenge should happen” she was only trying to speak the girls language – darker than her normal friendly tone. Turning to look at the boys again she smiled "this is Eria, you don't want to mess with her...she's cool" and maybe secretly under the tiny blonde's protection.

*hiccup*

with a hard blink Pips looked up to the studentsies, noticing that there were many many studentsies needing emergency laundry. Master Yoon caught Pips attention, “Pips, here Master Yoon need help *hiccup*”

Pips large eyes turned toward the other studentsie. Pips blinked hard looking at the young boy, wondering if how he was supposed to help them.
*hiccup*
Pips scurried closer to the boy, “How does Mister Jones propose Pips helps the other studentsies?”

With a deep bow, Pips turned toward a young studentsie (Reese), looking similar to a Rylee studentsie, must be siblings. “Thank you Sir. Pips always here to help when needed!”

*hiccup*

Pips scurried off toward the back room to finish the laundry for the day hopping none of the studentsies would be offended by him taking on his duties of cleaning for the day.

As he pulled Beth up, helped by a Hufflepuff boy he did not know, to whom he smiled thankfully, he couldn't help but snort at the laundry jokes that were thrown one after another by the Ravenclaw boy. Really, they were such a peculiar group of friends, he thought. Surely things must never be boring around them. Then, finally, Beth was back up on her feet, and-

... lion man?

"Daniel," he offered, because in all honesty, lion man was the least accurate description for him, being the scaredy cat that he was. A year had passed and he still wondered what the Sorting Hat had been thinking - still wondered if he was a late bloomer and if he'd ever show any Gryffindor traits.

Just as he'd finally allowed himself to laugh lightly at everyone's antics, this Slytherin girl showed up and rudely hinted that the laundry room was no place for kids - he was a few days short of thirteen, thank you very much. But he would surely follow Beth's you-don't-want-to-mess-with-her advice, so he remained silent, until Pips caught his attention.

... of course the house elf had already run off to finish doing their laundry. Not wanting to upset Pips, he smiled gratefully at the creature. "Thank you for your hard work, Pips." Now that his laundry was taken care of, and their damsel in distress appeared alright, he should probably make himself invisible and sneak out when no one was looking. It was this kind of situation that made him antsy, being around so many people he did not know, and even more so when they seemed to be the best of friends.

Beth glanced over to the lionboy that she clearly didn’t know wasn’t the bravest, but it wasn’t like that changed her opinion of him. He was kind, the gryffindors she had met so far were kind – Edmund and Chase…or wait, right…there must have been other not nice lion-pride people but so far she liked them. ”Its nice to meet you Daniel,” she smiled over to him as she glanced from him, to Pips, and to the rest of their ragtag group…Eria, of course got a little wink again because for some reason the little blonde rather liked her.

”Hey Pips, if you don’t mind I’d like to help with this – I made a bit of a mess” she gave the house elf a concerned smile as clearly she felt bad. She’d made a mess of the laundry – luckily nothing had overfilled.

Right?

Default These jokes just keep getting worse and worse

Dad jokes? Beth may know a lot of movie trivia but she needed to learn a thing or two about jokes. Rolling his eyes, stopped leaning on the barrel, turning as another student entered. *Sigh* He wasn't even surprised. I mean, why not? Lets have a party. Beth could sing... of she ever recovered from her trip. Despite the tone of the new Slytherin, he had to admit, he agreed with her. Deciding to leave and come back later, he grinned at them all. Grabbing his bag of washing, he strode to the door, calling back over his shoulder "Had a race to see who could hang out the washing quickest"... Pausing for a moment, he strode towards the door. Finally, after opening it, he turned, a huge monkey like grin on his face "It was level pegging!!!!". Chuckling, he left without a second glance back. He didn't need to know if they were laughing. He knew they were.

Not just one chip kiddo... Her marble was varigated at this point with how many fine line fractures it had. "Repeating thanks is tactless not-even-snark Oompa Loompa. Get a new line if you want out of the sandbox copper mop." What was it about badgers? Really...most irritating house ever. It wasn't surprising since her sister had been one but still, worst house ever.

That was of course, when she noticed the offered hand from Reese as well.

this wasn’t personal she didn’t want to hurt anyone so she simply stuck her hands out to both of them. This would have been odd if Ewan had reached out too…really, this move probably made her look overly confident and full of herself – but she wasn’t…not always that is.

”…thanks…lion-man and Reese” she smiled before glancing toward Ewan. ”oh please the dad jokes aren’t needed…and you spooked me earlier…unexpected eye contact isn’t…always the most fun she mainly felt that way because of all of the horrible things she had read in those myths she loved.

Pips got a kind smile before Beth turned to look at grumpzilla – okay maybe she secretly loved the girl. ”Hey Lovecraft, didn’t mean to ruin your zen-laundry area” Beth, now standing again after pulling herself up with her friends hands turned to face the burnette. ”don’t worry, I was doing laundry…some total whack job of a person left their dryer sheets laying around…really, revenge should happen” she was only trying to speak the girls language – darker than her normal friendly tone. Turning to look at the boys again she smiled "this is Eria, you don't want to mess with her...she's cool" and maybe secretly under the tiny blonde's protection.


Dryer sheets.....well, the kid might have a future as a fiction writer but the older snake certainly didn't consider for a moment it was the real story. "I can tell you how to fix that in the dorms tonight. Might have a new book to show you..." She wasn't the friendliest girl that was for dead certain...but she didn't mind the tiny blonde. She wasn't an irritating child, just had alot to learn about telling stories. After all, Eria was born from an author, she might know a thing or two as the little blonde had managed to piece together. It was part of why she showed some potential and was worth tutoring.

SPOILER!!: Kit cat

Well, it seemed the bigger toddler might make it to adulthood. He caught the hint and was wise enough not to retort. Maybe he'd actually make something of himself in the future...who knew? Either way, she wouldn't have to teach him things the hard way so he was fine by her.

Alright...this one needed to not quit his schooling because it was clear he'd never survive stand up. Toddlers these days just got worse and worse...seriously was that just poorly worded or an actual attempt at inappropriate humor? All he was getting was an eyeroll because he cleared the room after he stunk it up.

Right?


Winking now baby snake? That one was going to crush boys hearts one day....and actually it made the brunette more inclined to her. She could teach her a trick or two to crushing souls and egos. It was a skill set a proper lady snake had to know to survive in this forsaken pit of ill fortune and she'd casually assist through the year. Only fledging she didn't find disparaging so far, so she should do her part to help her bloom after all.

1 of 4 Amigos Don't underestimate me!

Reese just sighed and rolled his eyes at Beth's warning about the older girl that came in with and attitude and a look that matched a cat's face when it smelt something funky.. Cat bum face!.. That's what it was called! New name being mentally bestowed upon her at this very moment Cat's Bum ... Suits her just right , he thought to himself..

" She don't scare me, Beth.. What's she gonna do?.. Transform me into somethin' gross?.." Is sure his friend would scoop him up in whatever form and get him to the hospital wing or to a professor to be put back to normal... Right?!

What was up with that kid?.. Always being obnoxious.. Like it would impress the girls or something... He agreed with a nod when Cat's Bum told off The Annoying One.. Bad form indeed!


" I appreciate the tip... THANKS!.. , he retorted, " But I'm not an oompa loompa.. I'm Reese and I've been sentenced to seven years in purgatory.. I mean... I'm a Hufflepuff.. Almost nice ta meet ya.. ", badger boy added as he stuck out his hand to shake her hand.

Dad jokes, they were one of those things that made Anabeth Chase Greyvson’s blood boil. Beth looked over to Reese as Eria commented, a part of her wanted to defend him but another part…just, wanted to get the information that the older snake had…sorry Reese, she simply sent him a little sorry smile as an apology. ”a new book? Really…that’d be great,” she practically beamed as she looked up at her it wasn’t beaming really. It was really just respect and admiration.

Beth wondered of course, what she was thinking as she watched the tall brunette girl – gosh, she was pretty….could she teach her things about that? Beth, of course turned to raise an eyebrow at the retreating form of Ewan Jones. No was all she could think at those jokes, just no. Beth, of course, didn’t know of Eria’s plans to help her crush people, but if she did she would have jumped at the chance.

Reese, gosh…he was a brave little lump, Beth gave him a slight approving grin before turning to Eria. ”the hat was defective on this one, he’s not even a Hufflepuff…really, he has dark plans for creatures that are very un-hufflepuff” she wasn’t trying to help him, not really. She was just pointing out the truth.

Tinka the house elf
Default Miss Lydia

Slipping out from behind a cart of oddly colored bed sheets, Tinka appeared as if from nowhere in the Laundry Room. Her little feet carried her out of the way so her guest could enter after her, equally unnoticed.

"Miss Lydia like washing clothesies?" Tinka almost liked laundry. Her favorite part was stirring the hot, soapy water with her whisk. The steam and bubbles tickled her nose and her whisk made a fun swishy sound. "Miss Lydia warmer now, yes? Tinka like warm."
