| | Gryffindor Table For those who belong in Gryffindor House, on the left side of the Great Hall is where your table awaits. Red banners containing an embroidered golden lion float above the polished table in honour of the brave Godric Gryffindor. Already placed on the tables are silver plates with accompanying cutlery and goblets. All that is missing right now are the mountains of food and pitchers containing your favourite beverages.
Though your stomach might be growling as you take a seat on one of the long benches next to the table, it is important to not get hangry -- gnawing your arm away or jabbing your fork repeatedly on the surface of the table will do no good whatsoever. Give everyone some time to get settled in and wait for Headmaster Trent to deliver his speech. Keep yourself preoccupied by catching up with your fellow housemates or those who are visiting from the other tables until it is time to sink your teeth into the hearty and delicious meal prepared by the house-elves.

Hogwarts had been great and all and she couldn't wait to tell her mummy about how she'd gotten possessed and nearly burned a forest down and saw a ghost spiralling away--but she was pretty over it. Emmerson couldn't wait to go home and sleep in her own bed without a room full of other girls. Kizzy would naturally be at hers all the time or her over at Kizzy's and that was enough.
No more uniforms. No more early waking up. No wanting to practice her routines but having a zillion other people in the music room hogging it. NO MORE HOMEWORK--oh Merlin could they hurry this along??????
The soon to no longer be First Year skipped into the Great Hall and over to the Gryffindor table. Once the grumpy Headman gave his speech, they could eat food, she could stay up having a final gossip with Kizz and come morning it was hoooommmmeeeee.
Let's move this long, yes?

Hogwarts was nice, but home was nicer. Especially because she'd still have all her favorite people nearby AND the added benefit of her dad's hugs. Plus, sleepovers with Emm could finally happen again without three other girl's being around and trying to invade their privacy. No offense to her dormmates, but she liked it better when it was just the two of them.
Kinsay was always proper exhausted by this point in the evening, but she still kept up with Emm making way to the Gryffindor table where she slipped onto the bench riiiight beside her best friend. "We're second years now, Emm!" Well, almost. "We have to celebrate." Kiz wasn't sure how, but it was important that they did.
Was Teddy here yet? Kizzy lifted her bum off the bench to peek over at the Ravenclaw table. Then, because her curiosity got the best of her, she continued to scan the Great Hall in search of her other friends.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "Not second years until you get on the train, silly face," Phoebe dropped into a seat near her two favorite first years and stuck out her tongue. She supposed she should be glad to go home and get away from a school that had POSSESSED her without her consent (RUDE), but her people were here. All the time. She slept between two of her best friends, she saw more in her common room, the rest at breakfast. At home, she had Teddy and Kiz, but she needed a crowd to survive.
She was droopy.
"What adventures should we have this summer? Emm? You up for adventures?"

Naya was.......in a bit of a mood. Normally, she was glad for the end of term feast and excited about going home. This, however, was not just any feast. It was her last ever feast at Hogwarts and that made her sad. She was so not ready to say goodbye, to move on. Maybe once she left, she could feel happy about her future. For now, not so much.
Walking slowly, Naya made her way to the Gryffindor table......her table with her people. There would never be another group as crazy as this lot. Finding her preferred spot at the table, the still for a few more hours seventh year sat down. She barely noticed her fellow housemates at the table, as she was lost deep in thought. Naya wanted to take it all in.......she was making her memories.

| Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite She hadn’t really thought about it, not until Kiz mentioned it but her best friend was right. They weren’t dumb first years who didn’t know anything anymore. They were dumb SECOND YEARS who knew enough to be impressive to the soon coming new first years. It was a big thing. Huge even. ”We’ll need minions. One for every day of the week. Each. It’s the only real way to celebrate but we’ll also have to—“ The sentence came to an abrupt end when Fifi joined them at the table.
Right. The train. “Well that’s tomorrow. Close enough if you ask me and Kizzy—right Kiz??”
They’d have to wait til all the way in September to get little minions but honestly, Emmerson was looking forward to every second of her vacation and wasn’t in any rush to have that end, minions or not. Speaking of her vacation, the Gryffindor’s expression brightened considerably at the mention of adventure. “LET’S TAKE ARTEMIS TO SEE REAL DRAGONS!!! Can we, Fifi? We won’t die, honest. We could fly on the back of a real one and and and...watch it roast things and...uh...and...help the eggs hatch then keep one. Professor Williamson will love if we get him one. I know so.”
Further down the table, she saw Naya take her seat but the little girl was much too wrapped in the idea of adventure to go bother the girl who didn’t see up for much conversation in the first place.

| everyone is mentioned in here ^^ astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf If reality were a basilisk then Joshua would be dead now. Or at the very least petrified. It was wild how all term he had been acutely aware of Hero's looming graduation, their final epic prank together while the Hufflepuff was still a student ready to go after the feast, and yet he had not pieced together that this meant other people would be graduating too. He had become accustomed, sort of, to the idea of Hogwarts without Babs. She hadn't been around until after the holiday break anyway so he had the entire first half of term for that. Carsyn he had known on the pitch before Hogwarts and therefore there was a bit of a separation there that made her graduation no seem so weird. He really did not know the others well enough to really...feel much of anything, he realized, as he looked around the Gryffindor at his classmates who, after the train tomorrow, would not be gracing the castle again as students. And it was only now, while considering all this, that it properly struck him that this too included Eliza.
...oh.
He felt immature for a fleeting moment as the conversation between Phoebe, Kinsay, and Emmerson went (THANKFULLY...because he still was not over this whole dragon thing and his nose had sympathy pains) in one ear and out the other as his thoughts dwelled on how different it would be without his girlfriend here next term. Would she even still be his girlfriend?! They had not discussed long distance as an option. They hadn't discussed a fair handful of things, actually. The proof of which was a letter inside his pocket and the torn up remnants that had been a howler from pops regarding...well...let's just say it was an expected reaction to the news Healer Recard had had no choice but to owl home about.
Could he just stay at Hogwarts? Could they have a summer term and just...it not end yet?
No?
Okay.
This was fine.
So, much like Naya, Josh too was zoning out...only problem was that his zoning out had him staring riiiiiiiiiiiight at Phoebe.

| Made of Awesome | Ern-la the Best-wa | TZ's Apogee "Don't ask me if we can fly on dragons. You have to find an adult who wants to... who can get that to happen. I can't make portkeys or apparate, and Mum locks up the Floo powder." For obvious reasons. Mistake only made ONCE in the James household. "But yeah, I think Williamson would be thrilled by a gift dragon." Safe to say, since they weren't going to manage to find one somehow.
She spotted Naya looking SUPER thoughtful down the table, and Phoebe gave the older girl a cheerful wave. And Josh... was staring at her. Something on her face? Boogers? Broccoli in her teeth? OR WAS HE IN LOVE WITH HER? Unlikely, since he kept little sistering her, but Phoebe leaned in and tapped his nose. "I know I'm pretty, but you're embarrassing yourself."

Stella was feeling a whole mess of emotions, she really wanted to go home, but the feelings and emotions she was feeling was real. Sure she wanted to go home, but this wasn't hust going home for the summer and returning next year, no this was turning a new leaf. This was her last feast she was ever going to have here, to be honest she was a bit teary eyed about it. Walking into the Great Hall she smiled happily as the fact Gryffindor won the house cup in her last and final year, she was happy about that.
Sighing to herself she walked to where her fellow seventh year house mates and sighed to herself. Taking a seat she looked around lost in her own thoughts, so many good and bad memories were in this castle and she'll cerish every one of them good and bad. It was time to move on with her life, she couldn't start a new chapter of her life if she kept looking back at the ones she already written. Lost in her own memories she smiled softly to herself.

| doesn't proofread tweets | #wrongaboutcereal | #siriusly? | emo to the extremo Being a second year would be even better than being a first year. They’d still be cutest, but as far as Kinsay was concerned, no one would be on the search for new friends anymore. Which meant that her friends were hers forever and she could stop worrying about being replaced. See? Perfect.
Though, um, she wasn’t sure how she felt about having minions, but still nodded very enthusiastically at Emm’s proposal anyway. Fortunately Kiz didn’t feel the need to comment on it as the conversation had been sidetracked by PHEEEEEEBEEEEEEE. ”Right. Super close enough.”
Kiz stuck her tongue out at her older sister in return, before giving her a happy lil smile. ”Hi, Phoebe.” Wiggling around, she moved to sit on her legs. Kizzy was happy to listen as Emm explained allllllll the adventure ideas, but she was paying close attention to Phoebe, who looked a little droopy. ”We can ask Cece’s mum!” She worked with dragons! ”She might give us one if we ask real nice,” she offered thoughtfully. ”Are you sad, Phoebe?”
Kinsay was also aware that others had joined their table, but she didn’t really know Naya or Stella and was still harboring some judgmental thoughts on Joshua (who would NOT be allowed in their compartment this time, by the way). So instead of saying anything, she simply stared at both of them with a neutral expression.

| mentions for everyone... Swedishfish Girl! Madame Librarian! Jess's Soul Sister! Sweetest Swede! "Why so gloomy Naya?" Cole asked as he plopped down into the vacant seat next to his girlfriend and leaned over to give her a light peck on the cheek. Pulling out a chocolate frog packet he placed it on her plate. "Here you are, cheer up! "e've still got this feast to enjoy.” He knew very well why Naya was down in the dumps, he was too, but he tried not to think about it for this night. He had to of course when he wrote in the memory book later, but until then he wanted to be happy not pensive. Letting his gaze drift around the table Cole sent smiles and waves to Kinsey, Emmerson, Phoebe and Josh in turn. Then he looked over the table at Stella that like Naya was looking sad. "Hey Stella! What’s your favourite feast dessert?" He was going to say memory but he stopped himself before he did not wanting to add on to the sadness.

| Phoebe, Stella & Cole dream until your • dreams come true ~ Human pygmy puff
Naya was bummed, but she decided that she was not going to spend her last feast at Hogwarts pouting. When her little buddy Phoebe waved, she snapped out of her mood......sort of. “Hey Fifi”, she said to the younger Gryffindor. Ready for the summer?”
Naya saw her roomie arrive, looking pretty much like Naya herself. Yeah, this seventh year thing was real. “Hi Stella. You good?” It was hard. This she knew.......but they would get through it. Naya tried to think of it as the start of something exciting, rather than an ending. Yeah, right.
Cue the arrival of Cole. Ok. Time to perk up now. Naya smiled at her boyfriend, a bit halfhearted, but with good intentions. “Hey you.” Clearly he was trying to cheer her up. “I know you are right and I do intend to enjoy the feast. My last taste of Hogwarts food? Oh yes, I’m going to enjoy it.” This time her smile was genuine. If she could just make it through the goodbyes and the memory book, it would be ok.

David O. Truebridge Mysteries | Professor Pink | Mrs. Bruce Wayne | I'm on a Goat | Glitterpuff | Dumbledore's Defense Squad | BHB As usual, Bernie didn't WAAAAAAANT to go home. Even though she'd had lots of fun last summer, and even though she'd been possessed by a stupid ghost this year, her home (the flat) was still worse than all of that. Bernie would take 100 stupid possessions and a treasure chest full of cursed gold instead of going home.
She dropped into a seat near Stella, Cole and Naya (ewwwwwww, lovebirds) and sighed loudly. "Sucks that this is your last feast," she butted into their conversation. "You'd better stuff yourself, huh?" Bernie wondered if there was a potion for forgetting emotions, so she could take it when she was a seventh year on her last night at Hogwarts.

| YesJess! | Captain Goggles | Mama Badger | Eva's Soul Sister | An OG™ | It's all in the Numbers Carsyn was feeling a whole bunch of mixed emotions, but one of the ones that stung the most was how much she'd grown fond of Bernedette. Did the girl even realize how much she'd changed in just the short time that Carsyn knew her?? Like she was this wild child who really has come into her own being and the eighteen year old was 1000000 percent gonna miss her the most, especially in seeing how she would finish out her final three years. Plopping down next to her, she gave her a weak smile trying to keep somewhat of positive memories, "You'll write me often, won't you?" She asked of Bernie. "And watch after the younger ones?" She nodded towards Kinsay and Emmerson.
Was she meant to make some sort of farewell speech to all of them? She wasn't sure, but if they wanted to, they could go read her memory book post. That was enough of a speech. She glanced up and down the table, feeling a sense of pride in all of them, including her fellow seventh years. She didn't know if she'd ever see them again - although Cole and Naya probably since Cole was practically family - but she knew they'd all made an impact on her. |
