Default Chaudron Étang


As the name suggests, it's a lake that resembles a cauldron. Located beyond the castle's park but not so far out as to hit the edge of the cliff sits this deep structure. The water is warm, hot on most days, and it bubbles up on occasion like a cauldron set to boil. As inviting as it may look, you are not to enter the lake. The shoreline is shallow but it quickly breaks into a steep drop that could pull down the unsuspecting.

There is plenty of room along the banks of the lake for you to sit and have a moment of leisure. Pay no attention to the rumblings that build up. It has been many a century and nothing has risen from its depths...nothing the staff haven't been able to throw back in successfully.

It's a new school, new environment, new everything and anything, not being able to see all parts of it won't make her (or anyone for that matter) stay worthwhile. It all started from the carriages when Jillian thought of taking this advantage. Beauxbaton is all fancy and elegance, this entire school is a lot different than Hogwarts that's for sure. The fifth year wanted to go out and explore this school. After making her bed and eating her breakfast she made her way outside walking towards a lake. She cannot pronounce the words correctly so she just renamed it as beauxbaton's Great Lake.

Moving her way closer to the area the breeze felt a bit warmer. She read that the lake is a resembles that of a hot spring. The ones they have in Japan when she visited when she was 11. But in this lake- just like the Great Lake- they are prohibited to go in and swim.

Is she allowed to bring her painting materials here? The view looks absolutely beautiful. Perfect for painting. She stood there and took a long deep breath. This is nice. Very peaceful.

Hogwarts RPG Name:
Gemma Rose Black
First Year
Default

Gemma was already tired of being in the stuffy castle which is why she was walking by the lake. Everything felt too posh in there and she hated it. It reminded her too much of being home. She wished she was at Hogwarts. It was her first year and that place was supposed to be her home away from home. Her parents had told her so many lovely stories about Hogwarts. That's how they had met after all. She had already sent an owl home telling her family what house she had made and trying her best to sound enthusiastic about being in France.

Being by the water was comforting to her though she did have a nasty habit of being impulsive. 'What if I just go and stick my hand in there...' That technically wasn't going into the water, right? As she worked her way closer to the water she spotted someone. 'I think she's a Slytherin...'

Gemma looked at the petite girl. She looked lost in thought. She wouldn't notice if I just quickly touch the water,' Gemma coyly smiled, then paused. 'Oh.. What if she sees and gets me in trouble. I don't need to get a Howler sent to me.' Defeated Gemma walked a little further from the water.

Would it be rude to introduce herself to her senior? What was the decorum here? Gemma quickly shut down her thoughts and smiled at the girl. "Hello! My name's Gemma. I don't mean to intrude on your time but I thought it would be rude if I didn't introduce myself to you." Oh god know she was rambling. Someone help her.

The weather was really great today. She felt the warm breeze touch her pale white skin, Jillian enjoyed this type of weather. Not too hot and not too cold-- just the right balance. It felt absolutely refreshing to stand where she is standing. She took one glance of the time in her wrist watch before she could stretch both her arms in an upward position. Slightly twisting her body, the cracking feeling was just what she wanted. She hummed while wiggling her legs alternatively. For now she can considered this as her form of a 'yoga exercise'. She felt tired from the carriage ride and the opening feast from yesterday. She needs to just unwind and enjoy the fresh air.

That is until she heard a voice from behind her. Wait, someone was here with her the whole time? Or did this little one just pop up? Jillian turned to look at the girl, peering at her for a bit. Jillian isn't familiar with her, she must be a first year? She does look like one-- looks the part too.

Gemma.

She seems nice, she introduced herself first and apologized about being in the same place as her. Jillian chuckled softly while shaking her head "No need to apologize, Gemma. It's okay there are no intrusions." she nods. "I'm Jillian." the fifth year introduced herself as well.

"So..."
hmmm... what would be a good conversation to start her "Did you come here to enjoy the scenery as well?" yeah that seems realistic.

Jillian.

Seemed like an easy enough name to remember. She was usually pretty good at remembering things but with so many new faces she might struggle a just a tad bit.

"Nice to meet you Jillian," she smiled at the older girl. She felt relieved that Jillian didn't think she was intruding. She was trying very hard to step out of her comfort zone and talk to people.

She laughed a little at the question. "Yes and no. Beauxbatons is amazing and gorgeous, don't get me wrong... But it feels too stuffy. With everyone cramped into the castle it's a lot." She paused. "This lake and being outdoors is helping that claustrophobic a lot."

Gemma couldn't help but wonder how Hogwarts compared to the French school. "I know we've only been here for like a day but how does this place compare to Hogwarts?"

Beauxbaton is a very pretty school, mostly clean and very well 'put together' in a way. So far, she's enjoying herself here. Plus, she has never been to France so the carriage ride was kind of exciting. Not that she saw a lot of places but hey, at least now she could say that she has been to France. She doesn't travel that much, her father does but everytime he asks her, she declines.

"Pleasure" she replied to the first year. Gazing back at her, she nods in agreement. The place does feel stuffy-- too many people. "Yeah, I guess because there are 2 schools cramped up." and they can't really blame anyone for that. Besides, everyone is accommodated properly but yes, Jillian agrees that it is stuffy.

"Oh my, you have claustrophobic?"
she asks the younger student. "How are you feeling so far?" Maybe it's because everything feels overwhelming for Gemma. Jillian can relate to that. Everything and everyone feels new to her. That and she can also try to tell the Healer about it. "Feels kind of the same" except for the fact that Beauxbaton is fancy and elegant.

"You excited for the new term?"

Gemma knew everyone was doing their best, given the circumstances. No one expected Hogwarts to be unusable. She did appreciate having a school to attend because if she had been forced to stay home for another year she might have screamed.

"Not usually. I think the feeling is just due to being overwhelmed right now and trying to navigate everything!" Beauxbatons wasn't a small space. So the issue wasn't space it was just overwhelming having so many different people around. Especially when a majority were speaking different language. "I'm sure that'll fade though as we all get more used to being here." She smiled, hoping she was correct.

"I'm very excited! I've been dreaming of coming to Hogwarts.. oh.. er.. I mean anything big wizarding school since I was a child." It would be a good year. She was set on making a few friends and learning new things. "What about you?"

Cecelia was cozy despite the chill in the air, all bundled up and wrapped nicely in an old scarf that had once been her dad's. It smelled like him and made her think of home and she wondered how everyone was getting on without her. Something told her the house was REAL quiet without her around and she felt a LITTLE sorry for her mum and dad and Sammy, who must be MISSING her terribly. Poor things. She'd have to speak with them SOON.

Finding a spot by the water, the first year settled down on the hard ground and wiggled around on the spot until she was comfy. It was beautiful here, that was for SURE. Still, the water in the lake was a bit strange, wasn't it? Couldn't even SWIM in it, which Cecelia thought was KIND of a tease. She SO liked to swim, after all.

The lake had her favorite spot at Hogwarts last year, so of course Anna had to see if the one here was as good. It was pretty, at least. She wasn’t going to swim in it, though.

She was playing with her scarf absentmindedly as she walked, when she caught sight of a familiar face down by the water. Anna wasn’t sure if she should go over to Cecelia uninvited, but decided after a moment to do just that. To see how she was doing being away from home, and stuff. Because that was the nice thing to do.

“Hi,” she said brightly, helping herself to a spot on the ground next to the other girl. “Do you mind if I sit with you?”

Cecelia was a little lost in a daydream when she heard a voice that was NOT in her head and the blonde blinked, turning to see Anna standing there. "Hi! I don't mind at all." Actually, the first year thought Anna was quite cool. She was OLDER and she knew things Cece didn't, which made her SUPER wise. Plus she was nice, which the blonde really liked about her. They were born to be friends, obviously.

"So, you like this place okay?"

Stuck inside with Sirius | *Splish-Splash* | bamBAM | ☁ Spooktacular ☁

There was a newspaper under Noble's arm as he strolled down to the lake, and a paper bag of fresh pastries from the kitchens in his hand. It was Sunday morning, and he had a two hour respite before hosting a variety of remedial and extra-curricular classes. Perfect for catching up with the previous day's news.

When he was just the right distance from the water's edge - that was, sufficiently close to hear the lapping and bubbling of the water, but not so close to worry about what might be hiding in its depths - he conjured himself a chair. It resembled a fancy camping chair, complete with drinks holder, side table and footrest. The bag of pastries he put on the table, and then he pulled a travel mug of coffee from a magically extended pocket in his robes.

Taking a sip, he settled back in his chair and placed the newspaper in his lap. He didn't open it just yet though, taking a moment to appreciate the morning mountain view.

He could definitely get used to this.
