Hogwarts MOO

Herbology Treasure Hunt!

(OOC: 1912-1913 school year. Pre-Hogwarts students are visiting; snippets of the treasure hunt are viewed through the designers and some of the puppets.)

,-[ Hogwarts - Library ]------------------------------------------------------.

Bad day." Nancy Derwent-Sinclair returns emphatically. "We're losing, and I've got all this work to do and it's my N.E.W.T year and my trial for the Rochester Rifles is next week and the school is full of -small children-." the prefect makes a face, her words running together in their urgency. It is clear that the Quidditch Captain thinks of little but sport. And small children.

Hestia Davies shakes her head, "I've seen you play." Hestia herself was Quidditch-mad, a Beater on her house team, "I should think you'll do fine at your tryouts. Rochester would be foolish to let you go." But as for N.E.W.Ts...Hestia was still thinking about her own O.W.L.s. "Not many of the Littles have come into here." She flashes a beaming grin, "Melissa and I are giving them a treasure hunt." Looking up as the Slytherin arrives, "'Lis! There you are! I haven't fed Nosfer all day. He's hungry!"

A head peeks through the door into the room, taking a moment to look around before the rest of Melissa Talison comes into appearance. The Slytherin shoots a grin at Hestia, with a smaller but no less cheerful nod of greeting to the Hufflepuff with her. "Hungry? Oh, he'll do a /lovely/ job, then!" With a short laugh, she brings herself closer to the others present, careful as always not to trip on the edge of her robe as she moves.

Nancy Derwent-Sinclair smiles wryly, her tea coloured locks shaking at the movement. "Well, I wouldn't if I was them. And if Sennet wasn't cracking the homework whip at me." She stabs uneasily at the desk, shoulders rolling back. "My parents say they won't keep me while I'm looking for a professional Quidditch contract unless I get decent NEWTS." she explains. "They think it's too risky, gambling everything on a sport like that--" she breaks off at the news of a treasure hunt. "Really? In the castle? Do you think any of them might fall down the pit room and get stuck until the trip is over?"

Ahhhh." Hestia Davies's own mother was Quidditch-mad herself, so she couldn't imagine any such ultimatum coming from her. But then, Hesti wasn't the player Nancy was, nor that Andrea had been. Of course, Hesti was still only a third-year. "Well...I'd offer to help you study for the NEWTs, but, I'm just preparing for my OWLs." She moves, clearing a seat for Melissa. In front of the Gryffindor are maps of the castle, and plans and plots for the treasure hunt. At The Hufflepuff's last question she shares a mischievous grin with 'Lis. "We certainly /hope/ so."

Melissa Talison plops down in the offered seat, legs curling under the chair as she leans forward to study what Hestia has laid out. "We don't have OWLs for another year yet. Do we?" Worried look switches quickly back to a smile. "I haven't wanted to think about those.. Or NEWTs. But I'm sure you'll do fine," she adds quickly, to Nancy. Not that she's ever really talked to the older girl before. "I /know/ your good enough at quidditch, anyway.. I wouldn't miss a game if I could help it." Ever rambling, she easily switches topics to her and Hestia's plotting. "/Some/ of them should get stuck, I'm sure. Or lost somewhere else, at any rate.. it'll be just splendid."

Nancy Derwent-Sinclair's stabs her quill onto paper, breaking the nib with no little delight. "Oh dear. No nib. Can't really do my essay now." she considers, the prefect's usually stringent goody-two-shoes appearance shattered by exam and quidditch stress. And the small children. "How will it work then, this treasure hunt? Are you going to have enchanted clues and things?" she inquires, interested despite herself.

Take a look at this map 'Lis...is that where the Tub 'O Bladderwrack is going?" Shaking her head at the Slythie's question, Hestia Davies admits, "No. End of next year. But, I thought I'd get started early." Because Kieran was likely to do /very/ well. And Hesti liked to keep up with the boy. Turning to Nancy she grins, and doesn't offer a spare nib (because really, she would ask if she wanted, wouldn't she?) "We're using plants. Nipping Narsium, Vanishing Vines. A living Topiary....it's that one that should lead the littles to the Pit."

Hand is raised to shove back hair, keeping it out of her eyes as the Slytherin girl tilts her head toward the indicated area. "There?" Finger is shoved at the map. "That's where it should be, so they'll see it when they come down the stairs." Melissa Talison slides back on her seat again, just a bit, looking back up at her companions. "Owls, too. But mostly plants. They're not all so interesting," or as dangerous as she would like, one can suppose, "But we've got some good ones."

,-[ Hogwarts - Roof Balcony ]-------------------------------------------------.

Hestia Davies grins as she leads the little ones up onto the roof. "Everyone, please stay away from the edges, we'd probably loose points if we let one of you fall off. And Gryffindor is only in the lead by 3 points!" Hestia flounces over and stands by Melissa. "Welcome to the great Herbology Treasure Hunt! The prize will be something very unusual, and very tasty. Oh. And candy too. I've already introduced myself. This is my partner, Melissa Talison. She's a Slytherin. I'm a Gryffindor."

Shiara O'Shay makes her way up onto the roof, hanging neary Clover and Carmen as she looks about, nearly tempted to peek over the edge, but she heeds the warning, and doesn't.

Carmen Elle blinks a bit as she trails in behind Hestia and nearby Shiara. Glancing at the edges - what fun that''d be to just jump off of. A wave is offered to the two girls and muttering, "Claira..is in Ravenclaw..Naiya is too..they're related to me..y'know.." Once again announcing softly to Clover and Shiara.

Melissa Talison turns from looking out over the roof as the group arrives, offering a smile to Hestia and to the younger ones following her as well. As she is introduced, one hand is lifted in a wave to the group. "Hello, and as she said, welcome! Oh. You can call me just 'Lissa, if you like." Curious eyes dart over the young ones.

It looks like a chimney forest up here..." Turning, the little girl grins at Carmen and Shiara. "I've never been this high before ever in my life." Then, lowering her voice, she glances at the older girls. "I wonder what the tasty prize will be, if it isn't the candy?" Clover Davies nods toward Hestia, "She's related to me. I think."

Yeah. Uncle Mai and his cousin look alike but are as different as I am from my younger brother." Donovan Boru says looking at Lissa,"Hello 'Lissa. Slytherin. Hrm." Mental note. Slytherin.

Carmen Elle shoots a glare at Donovan as she mutters something quietly to the two girls she is standing with, "He is so nosy an' annoying." Ugh! Fists balling up some before avoiding any attention drawn towards her by habitally smoothing out her dress..

All right. This treasure hunt will lead you to some room in this castle where we have hidden the prize. First prize goes to the first child down. The rest....who make it...will get a consolation prize. If you get lost in the castle though..." Hestia Davies just shrugs. "Three rules. 1) Always use a staircase you come to, 2) Never go backward, and 3)If you come into a room with just one other door. Use it. Any questions so far?"

Shiara O'Shay shakes her head slightly before turning towards the other girls. "So, we're not supposed to backtrack then?" She enquires softly of, well, no one in particular. "That makes very little sense."

Clover Davies glances at Donovan and shrugs to Carmen's whispers. She had been mad at him before, but Mr. McCullough had helped her understand a little better. "I think he knows her. That Hestia girl." That cousin of hers. "Will we get lost and....be lost?" Would Mr. McCullough come looking for her, if she did? Would her daddy?

Carmen Elle shrugs yet again, "Oh well." Silencing herself as she listens to the questions. "Alright." Shrugging yet again, "Simple..rules.." That fact she could get lost doesn't really bother her..yet..

Right. Don't backtrack. You have to go forward to go back." Oh, Hestia Davies was sure that made so much more sense. Grinning over at Melissa, then down at their charges, "You begin on the landing below. My owl is waiting there. If you find a way to feed him...he'll give you the first clue."

Melissa Talison grins back at Hestia, having finished her scan of the visiting students, and determining she knows none of them yet. "Have fun!" she says, her own little instructions to add to the more helpful ones that Hestia gives. "And good luck."

Carmen Elle smiles some, before she pivets on her heel, facing the direction towards the landing down below. Tilting her head at Clover and Shiara, "Coming?" Obviously she doesn't care to be doing this alone at the moment.

Smiling faintly at Melissa, and less so at the other girl, Clover Davies gives a quick nod. "I'm coming..."

(OOC) Hestia Davies: They just fed the owl! Now they have to scramble for the card to get the next clue.

(OOC) Hestia Davies: They're being followed around by the Headmaster of the boy's school. Who has made an enemy of all of them. Especially after forcing the girls into a debate with a boy on who was better. Witches or Wizards. LOL

(OOC) Hestia Davies: Now he's trying to get the girls to tell him who their alts are. He finally left. He was slowing the RP down terribly.

(OOC) Hestia Davies: I got them moving, they're in the pit room now, finally. I'll try to keep them moving about.

(OOC) Hestia Davies: They're cute! It's too bad you can't see them RPing. Spike had to drag them to the pit room practically. (I want to keep Spike!)

King Arthur> ,-[ Hogwarts - The Circle ]------------------------------------.

King Arthur> Dusting herself off...as best she could, her white apron was soiled and /ruined/ now, Clover Davies looks around with a sigh. "Where are we now?" Looking around the room she shakes her head, "Eight doors. And...there's another owl. Does Hestia have two?"

King Arthur> King Arthur is sitting peacefully on the floor, head tucked down, perhaps resting. At the group drops in he raises his head, staring at them with large owl eyes. After a moment, wings start into motion, and he rises into the air above them.

King Arthur> Shiara O'Shay falls through and lands on her but, yet again. "Oy, I'm going to need an ice pack after this," she states as she stands and rubs at her rear. "Okay, another owl, what to do now? What does this one want?"

King Arthur> Carmen Elle falls from the trap door unsuspectingly and then landing yet again. Cringing some, before standing up. Deep breaths are taken to keep her from screaming in pain. The first thing she notices is the owl which flys upwards. "Oh."

King Arthur> Dusting himself off again,"Is ea. Shall we see if we can figure it out?" Donovan Boru says examining the owl while rubbing the arm he landed on."We're all taking beatings from this that's for sure."

King Arthur> Clover Davies sighing, Clover eyes the new owl. "Well then little owl? I'm afraid those owls up in the attic got all the bread. What do you want?" Could owls, even magic ones, understand speech? Clover had no idea. "I hope it won't send us down anymore trap doors!"

King Arthur> King Arthur takes off in a small, slow circle above the place where he had been resting, taking the time to wake up his wings. That done, he seems to peer down at the students for a moment, then silently swoops toward the south door, stopping to hover where he is when he reaches it.

King Arthur> "Shall we then? Looks like the next course of action is to head south." Donovan Boru says smiling slightly at the rest of them,"/Hopefully/ it won't involved any more falls but we'll see. Maybe we're getting close to the end." Hope. Pray. Ok. Breathe. TIme is wasting.

King Arthur> Shiara O'Shay chuckles and watches the owl. "I suppose that's where you want us to go?" She enquires. "I really hope there won't be anymore trap doors to fall through, my rear hurts enough as it is," at this a chuckle is offered and she moves onward.

King Arthur> Clover Davies sighs. "Very well then Owl." Glancing dubiously at the south door, she nods to the other children. South it was. But if she fell somewhere one more time, she wasn't going to be very happy. "Let's go. Come on Carmen..."

King Arthur> Carmen Elle nods some while watching the owl hover over towards the Southern exit, "I know what that means." She speaks quietly, after being dragged along by the dog-plant-thing earlier. Trudging on aftter the trio. "I hope it's the end soon.." Sighing some as she points to her dress, the poofy-slip completely torn off now.

(OOC) Melissa Talison: And they're off! All you again until the.. something floor. Until they pass the twisty passage. :P

(OOC) Hestia Davies: Akc! We didn't need the Singing Senna in that room after all. It has only one exit, the children would have gone west anyway.

Vanishing Vine> ,-[ Hogwarts - Southwest Circling Corridor ]----------------.

Vanishing Vine> Shiara O'Shay makes her way in, somewhere amidst the group. "Okay, now we're here, where to from this point?"

Vanishing Vine> Clover Davies gestures to the Vine. "Another plant. That seems to be the kind of clues we get." Shrugging, "Hestia and Melissa must like them."

Vanishing Vine> Vanishing Vine is lying on the floor, for all the world like someone had taken a vine and just dropped it. Except for the fact that it is crawling, slowly, northeast. It vanishes as it nears the door, not able to be seen for a moment.

Vanishing Vine> Stepping into the room the plant is noticed fairly early on,"What's this? Well it is an Herbology Treasure Hunt." Donovan Boru says laughing slightly and looking at the Vanishing vine more carefully,"What do you think this one is?"

Vanishing Vine> Clover Davies giggles and points to the north east. "I think it crawls. I guess it wants us to use that door? Did it just disappear?" Disappearing plants? And she thought Mrs. Porter's was an exciting place!

Vanishing Vine> Shiara O'Shay watches the vine. "Where did it go?" She enquires slightly as she peers where she last saw it, in an northeastern direction.

Dungeon Dandelion> ,-[ Hogwarts - Entrance Hall; Northern Section ]---------.

Dungeon Dandelion> "Well...there's another of my cousin's plants." My cousin now. How easy it sounded to say that. "I've seen that in a book. Donovan...Clover Davies looks at the only boy in the group, "You read a lot...do you know what it is?"

Dungeon Dandelion> Dungeon Dandelion is not a mobile plant; he's in a pot. Poor thing. He - it - is not doing much except sitting near the wall by the eastern exit, 'enjoying' the amount of light available in the hallway.

Dungeon Dandelion> Shiara O'Shay looks at the plant. "Yeah, certianly seems like she has a things for plants and what not, but this is a herbolagy thing, or at least themed in the manner. At any rate, doesn't look like it can move very far," she states stepping a bit closer to the plant.

Dungeon Dandelion> "Dungeon Dandelion... Ummm..." Donovan Boru says raking his hair while he examines it trying to remember something more than the name,"I thought they prefered darkness but I could be wrong... It might be able to move provided it isn't in a pot... See how the leaves are so pale, usually you don't find that in sunny plants."

Dungeon Dandelion> "Right. Dungeon Dandelion. I knew I'd heard of it. The poor thing. It doesn't look happy here at all. It should be in the dungeons...." She stops, and looks at her compatriots. "Maybe...that's where we're meant to be?" Clover Davies looks back at the plant, "Does anyone know where the Dungeons are?"

Dungeon Dandelion> Shiara O'Shay shakes her head softly. "I dunno, but perhaps we're supposed to go in the direction of the plant," she offers with a shrug.

Dungeon Dandelion> "Well I think the entrance is by the Southern Section of the room.... But they usually place them near the exit they want us to use so why don't we head to the east?" Donovan Boru says biting his lips between sentences.

Dungeon Dandelion> Clover Davies shrugs, "As good an answer as any I guess." East then, it was. "Ready?" Clover was American. They most definitely did not have dungeons in America.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> ,-[ Hogwarts - Dungeon Center ]-------------------------.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> Clover Davies peers into the tub and wrinkles her nose. "That....looks as bad as the Mushy Peas they make us eat for dinner sometimes. I...what do you suppose we do with this?"

Tub O'Bladderwrack> Shiara O'Shay peers and shudders. "It does, doesn't it? And honestly, I have no idea what it may be," yet another shudder is offered as she looks about the dungeon center.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> "A little like dulamon." Donovan Boru says slipping into Irish for a moment,"It seems to move most when something approaches." He comments as it begins squirming even more as he approaches,"What to do with it though..."

Tub O'Bladderwrack> Tub O'Bladderwrack rests in the middle of the dungeon. A tub of sorts, filled with slimey looking greens. And these /do/ move, as if the contents of the tub needed to be any more disgusting. There may be an occasional glimpse of.. something.. inside, other than just the walls of the tub and the plants, if one is looking quite closely.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> Clover Davies moves closer to the tub. "I...." Was that something..."Do you two see something glinting in that tub?" Grimacing, but determined to win this hunt now that she had spoiled her dress, Clover splashes her hand into the center of the tub.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> The contents of the Tub O'Bladderwrack wriggle, sqirm, and twist around the hand that makes its way into it, but at the same time yield before it, giving way to the note resting at the bottom of the slimey soup.

Tub O'Bladderwrack> Clover Davies snatches the note off the bottom of the tub. Hmmm...must be spelled to keep it dry. Very clever. "We go east." Because that's what it said. East, and South. Hestia and Melissa must have taken pity on them by now.

,-[ Hogwarts - Dungeon Cell ]-------------------------------------------------.

You made it!" Hestia Davies is standing in the center of the dungeon's cell with Melissa, confetti at the ready. Tossing the little bits of red, gold, green, and silver paper over the trio's heads, the older girl grins. "Congratulations. Melissa, do you have the brains?"

Brains?" Donovan Boru asks brushing a little bit of the paper from his hair and looking at Hestia as if she were a little off her rocker.

Melissa Talison pulls a container from her pocket just as the students come in, adding her out exclamation on "Congratulations!" as she withdraws it. Resting the container, which is filled with a whitish substance, on the palms of both hands, she holds it out ceremoniously.

What..." Looking up dubiously at the white stuff, Clover Davies backs away from Melissa's hands. "What on earth is that. What..." Was that their prize?

Ummm... yeah... what /exactly/ is that stuff." Donovan Boru asks a little wary of the substance. He's not sure whether to take it or run away from it.

It's brains," Melissa Talison repeats Hestia's words, shooting a grin at her Gryffindor companion. "Go on, try some. You really couldn't ask for a tastier prize."

Brains? You want us to eat Brains?" Taking another step back Clover Davies bumps into the door of the cell. "Donovan can eat brains if he wants. But I'm not." Then, blinking, she asks, "Whose brains?"

You expect him to do /WHAT/? Donovan Boru looks at the pair nervously following Clover's lead of backing to the back of the room,"What /kind/ of brain? Are you nuts?! Normal people don't eat the brains of things. Well unless you're in India and then you eat Monkey Brains but... That's different." He doesn't sound fond of the idea/.

Hestia Davies shrugs, "Suit yourselves then. But to get the real prize, you have to eat these Lizercundium brains." Grinning, Hestia moves to stand beside Melissa. "Trust us. Have we steered you wrong at all? You'll /like/ them."

Lizard brains! WE," and she includes Donovan in this, "Are not eating lizard brains. That's....well that's very unladylike." Clover Davies grins over at the boy, "And it's not gentlemanly either."

Lizercundium... That's a plant isn't it?" Donovan Boru says blinking slightly and smiling at Clover."If you tell us what Lizercundium is, I will try a bit and that way Clover will know if they are poisonous." Hehe Gentlemanly, no? Boy dies, girl knows it is poisonous.

Melissa Talison pushes her hands, and therefore the container of brains, farther forward. Almost an insistence that the two try some. "You really /will/ like them, promise. It /is/ a plant; I've never tried /lizard/ brains.. could always feed some to Jamie, see what he thinks.." Somehow, she remembers the actual topic at hand. "Yes. Plant brains, just plants. And not poisonous, neither."

You just performed a double negative...." Donovan Boru says a tad bit warily, "Does that mean that they are indeed poisonous or was it simply a slip of the tongue that caused you to negate your negative statement." Ok. The boy is too much a fan of brains. He does reach forward for the brains. Oh dear. he might as well get it over with.

Right Dono. Plant brains. You /know/ how I like plants." Well, he would if Maidhc had ever mentioned her. How could one mention Hestia Davies and /not/ bring up plants or Quidditch. "Go on, try them. 'Lis and I love them. And we eat them all the time."

A double negative? Clover Davies peers at Donovan and grins. Her grin widens in surprise as he takes a chance at the Brains. He was going to eat them! There better be a /big/ prize for eating brains! Would Clover Davies have to? Well, Donovan would tell her if they were terrible...

Melissa Talison just blinks at Donovan. "What?" Oh well; at least he's trying them. 'Lissa nods after Hestia's comment, a definite agreement to what the other said.

Shiara O'Shay peers at the lizercundium brains. "Umm, are these, edible?"

Very cautiously Donovan Boru takes a bit of the 'brains' and pops it into his mouth very quickly before smiling slightly,"Hey these are actually tolerable. The substance tastes vaguely familiar..." He pauses for a moment as if searching his brain for more info,"I can't remember why the name feels familiar..."

As she watches Clover take a tentative bite of the sticky white goo, Hestia Davies grins. "They're used to make candy. Scrumdidyumptious and the like. And that really /is/ the brain of the plant. It's semi-sentient." As the younger girl grins, apparently liking the substance, Hestia Davies's face brightens. "Excellent. Now you," she nods at Shiara.

Shiara O'Shay shrugs slightly and takes a bit, if Clover can do it, she can do. "So, they make candy out of this stuff or something?"

It's what makes the candy sweet," Melissa Talison replies, pleased with the general reaction. "I think that's what it does, anyway, wasn't it Hestia?"

Hestia Davies nods. "Yes. Magic candy anyway. Some of it." She grins at her year-mate, "So, should we give them the real prize now? We didn't think three of you would make it together. So we're sorry but you have to share the prize."

I don't think any of us could have done it by ourselves." Donovan Boru says smiling at Shiara and Clover,"We all had talents." yeah like Encyclopedia boy, fearless girl, and Shiara. Sapphire eyes sparkle slightly,"Give me only a small amount. I don't eat it but I'll send it to someone who does and they can only have small amounts."

Melissa Talison chuckles quietly. "I suppose they deserve it, don't you? How'd it go with all.. everything, anyway?" Second part of course being directed to the younger, yet-to-be Hogwarts students. With another blink for Donovan, as well. "You don't eat it? But.. How?"

Shiara O'Shay grins slightly. "This is good stuff," she notes with a grin. "And he's right, none of us could have done this without everyone elses help, I'm sure we'd have all ended up lost otherwise." A nod is offered to afferm her statement. "It was quite fun as well, exploring the school, I expect we all know our way around here just a little bit better than we did when we started out."

Oh! And maybe we won't get as lost when we come to school here..." But then Clover Davies wouldn't be coming to school here for more than a year.

I guess they do. Give them the prize Melissa." Hestia Davies reaches out and takes a snip of the brains for herself.

Melissa Talison shifts the container of brains to one hand, finding and then offering a bag of candies with the other. "Here you are. Enjoy!" And as soon as they take the bag, she's going after a bit of brains for herself as well.

Twink with Style!

(OOC: 1912 flashback scene... serious twink style this time.)

ADMIN NOTE: This log does not officially occur in the game's timeline. It was meant to be a fun scene in which all parties make fun of themselves. Nothing in this log is to be taken seriously, and none of it is canon as far as the game is concerned.

Basically, none of this ever happened.

,---------------------------------------------------.

Jessa Luna hovers into the rose garden humming to herself, her wand pointed at her feet. Her hair is straight and unstyled and falls to her mid-back. She is wearing a Slytherin school uniform and a robe that is undone and displays the hint of her feminine curves.

John Winters is in the rose garden trying to escape all the evil magic. He is sitting with a history book because history is not evil. He wears black robes and does not have his wand, but is safe because his cousin is a teacher.

Sitting up in the tree, Astra Rathe has somehow managed to get up there. The hood of her cloak is actually not pulled back for once and she watches the other students from her high perch. A backpack hangs off another branch nearby and she seems pretty comfortable where she's at. She isn't wearing the mandated school uniform, or if she is it can't be seen because her black inky robe is not the kind that opens in the front and it is very long.

Eva Wexler walks into the rose garden with a gaggle of boys behind her. "Go /away/," she tells them with a slightly dramatic sigh. The young girl is wearing a Ravenclaw uniform which follows her curvy body, and her skirt is too short because of a gorwth spurt that she had recently. "I don't like any of you, go away," she tells them again before going to sit down and crossing her legs then opening a book she was carrying.

Jessa Luna stares at Eva with a slightly annoyed expression, partly because of the boys but also because Eva is a Ravenclaw -- and if there's one thing that Jessa has never liked here at Hogwarts, it's Ravenclaws. She makes a point of turning her nose up at Eva and, with a bare glance to John, distracts herself by trying to climb the tree along with Astra. Because she is quite good at magic even though she cannot read, she does this by waving her wand and making her Wingardium Leviosa spell work even better, and she floats up into the branches of the tree, wrapping her legs around one branch and greeting Astra with a supercilious, "Good morning."

Why are you floating?" Eva asks Jessa, looking at her with a haughty expression. Eva doesn't like Slytherins. They're evil. "Hi, there," she tells John.

John Winters glares at Jessa as she is using magic to get around, which he would never do. He sighs dramatically and keeps glaring at her as she is up in the tree. John doesn't mind Eva, because she has not done anything but read. "What book is that?"

Eva says, "It's a muggle book - Pride & Prejudice. Have you read it?"

John says, "I haven't but my sisters like it. I have read the Bible and I read about nature and cultures and history."

Staring openly at the other Slytherin Astra back up just a little on the branch because she doesn't want to fall off and be thought of as clumsy. Pulling up the hood of her cloak the girl shrugs up her shoulders in a defensive position and stares in awe at the Jessa. Hi. She waits a little longer before adding, in an affected and raspy whisper You're really good at that. You must have practiced a long time. Looking down at the ground to see what's going on down there she watches the other students with the same guarded body language as if afraid of the entire world.

Eva says, "You should come down form the tree, you could fall."

Of course I haven't read it!" Jessa replies defensively, though she does not fall out of the tree. She just glares at Eva a little more and with a very supercilious smile she informs the stupid Ravenclaw girl, "I like doing it," because she just knows that the Ravenclaw isn't capable of doing something like that. Just to show off, she stands on the branch with one foot, keeping herself perfectly balanced with magic as she comments to Astra, "I haven't practiced very much, no."

John Winters is not afraid of anyone. He is going to convert the entire student body when they realize how wrong they are, including his cousin, even though she doesn't agree with him. "Your soul will get hurt. You should climb down and skip classes tomorrow with me. I am going to learn to swim in the lake."

You should read it," Eva says to Jessa with a nod then looks at John again with a shrug. "I like it. I've never read the bible. I don't think I care to. I heard it's just tragic stories. I like romance stories. History is fun sometimes but it gets boring."

Eva says, "I like swimming! Can I come too?"

John says, "Yes! But you should read it because it is not just stories. We could have a picnic at the lake with swimming."

I don't want to read it!" Jessa replies scathingly and superciliously, flipping her hair over her shoulder and smirking in a self-satisfied way at the idiot Ravenclaw girl. "I have better things to do in my time than read books."

Eva says, "Like climbing stupid old trees?"

I won't fall! I climb trees all the time at home and I climb on everything. Father says I'd be a squirrel if I were an animal." Astra responds quietly even if the remark wasn't meant for her. Looking at the boy curiously Astra decides to pull back the hood of her cloak, maybe these other students aren't so scary after all. "I can swim a little, but fishing is better." "Did you ever see the big old squid?"

Jessa Luna flips her hair again, but smiles with just a hint of chagrin, nodding her head at Eva in a very condescending way. "I know it hurts you that you can't do things like this, but that's just because you're freak girl." To John, in a stage whisper, she adds, "Eva is a freak girl because she has a clone."

Eva says, "She's not a clone she's my twin sister!"

Eva says, "You're just jealous."

John Winters looks up at Astra even thought she is in the tree and evil. "It is a lake, we can go fishing too. You should come to the picnic. What is the squid?" John is not scared of a squid but maybe it would be cool to see it.

Eva Wexler moves over to where John is. "I like picnics and swimming. We live near the shore so I'm very good at swimming. I even brought my bathing suit to school this year!"

Jessa says, "The only reason to bring a bathing suit is so you can show off your body which is a bit SINFUL," %n opines in a supercilious way, raising an eyebrow at Eva and pursing her lips disapprovingly. "I suspect that we know already who the first pregnant girl is going to be, don't we?" She looks to the others for approval, then folds her arms and glares at Eva. "Unless her /clone/ does it first.""

John Winters smiles at Eva and is happy that she will be friends with him. "You live near the shore? Where do you live? I don't have a swimsuit but I have some pants and I cut the legs off them because they were getting too short." He looks up at Jessa and glares at her again because she spoke to him. "She is not a freak, you are a freak. You are using magic in a tree."

Eva says, "Your just jealous because you dont have a nice body like mine, you meanie slytherin. I have a nice body and I like to show it."

Eva says, "That will work for swimming clothes. We live in Bournemouth. Well, close to it. I have five brothers and my twin sister who live there with me."

I have a nice body and I like to show it is just another way of saying that you thrive on male attention," Jessa opines in response, though she does pull aside her robe and pose a little for Eva. "I have a nice body too, but I do not show it off to BOYS."

Eva says, "Why?"

John says, "I have a lot of brothers and sisters but I forget how many. They are all farmers."

Jessa says, "If you don't know, I'm not going to tell you."

Astra Rathe looks down at John and scrambles over to another branch but not to get away from Jessa, she's just enjoying climbing around. "It's a big lake. With a squid and merpeople and everything! But Scotland isn't Wales and I miss home." Looking to Jessa she sighs, "You're so good at charms."

John says, "Jessa she is not showing off, she wants to come swimming. Everyone wears a swimsuit to swimming. Astra, are you coming tomorrow?"

Astra says, "I can't swim very well and I don't have anything I can swim in. I can make a fishing rod and then maybe if we catch anything we can have fish, but we'll have to put it back if we catch merpeople or something like that. I don't think they'd make good eating."

Eva says, "I don't think so either."

Eva says, "Jessa you should just mind your own business. I like looking the way I do and boys like me better than you so you're missing out."

I know," Jessa tells Astra, looking her over and affecting a small smile. It is a very affectionate smile, perhaps even romantic, and she purses her lips a little as she looks at the other girl, a hint of longing in her sea-green eyes. This is the first time she has ever been in love. All thoughts of swimsuits and slutty pregnant Ravenclaw girls are completely gone from her mind and all she can think of is the fact that Slytherin girls are cute automatically even if they aren't all that cute or you're not interested in girls

Astra Rathe pondres over what Jessa said and bites her lip before piping up, "Do you show it off to girls then? Arnauld says some boys like boys and some girls like girls and some girls kiss boys and girls and some boys kiss boys and girls. It all seems kind of confusing and I don't know why anyone would want to, but I know they do. I've seen it."

John Winters agrees with Astra because he would not want to eat a merperson, they might poison him because they are magic. "I would like to go fising too. We will have fun, but I hope we don't catch a squid. I want to see the squid from a boat."

Eva Wexler is not pregnant!

John says, "Eww that's gross. Why would you want to do that Jessa?"

Eva says, "I like kissing boys."

Jessa says, "I want to kiss Astra."

Jessa Luna blushes FURIOUSLY because she did not mean to say that out loud.

John says, "That is so gross I would never kiss a boy, only girls."

Jessa Luna covers up her faux pas by saying, "That is why you will get pregnant, Eva. John will get you pregnant."

Astra Rathe shrugs and just continuing to talk because she doesn't know better. "Arnauld says it's normal so I guess it is. He likes everyone and he kisses lots of people." Looking at Jessa when she says that the girl goes ashen and shakes her head. "I'm sorry Jessa. I don't want to kiss anyone yet. I don't even have curves or stuff." "Besides," here she rolls her eyes, "if Thomas D'arcy found out he'd yell at me for /days and days/ because he thinks I belong to him or something stupid even though he's muggleborn."

Astra Rathe knows better than to say mudblood now.

John Winters glares at Jessa again and doesn't want her to come to the lake with them. "I don't think we should invite Slytherins Eva. Except Astra so she can go fishing."

Eva says, "OK, that sounds good. Jessa can't come because she wants to kiss girls instead of boys."

Astra says, "There are good Slytherin! Ruth Cohen is good and she dates a Gryffindor."

John says, "Astra I said you could come!"

Eva says, "It's okay, astra, you can come"

Astra Rathe looks between Eva and John. "But Arnauld *says* it's okay to kiss anyone you want. He has all sorts of books with naked people in them and stuff. He says we shouldn't be ashamed of our bodies, but I don't get most of it."

John Winters just doesn't want Jessa there because she is weird.

Eva says, "That sounds like he's trying to get you to do wierd things."

Astra says, "Jessa should be able to come even if she does want to kiss girls. That's like saying Thomas couldn't come because his parents are muggles."

John says, "Also she's evil and uses magic."

Jessa Luna starts to cry a little bit because she is heartbroken and left out, so she stomps her foot and points her wand at John and yells out a spell that makes his body go all stiff.

Astra says, "Arnauld wouldn't do anything to me. He's sweet and he takes care of me better than my own parents!"

Eva says, "I bet he wants to,though."

Eva says, "We all use magic, John. duh."

Astra says, "Nuh uh. He likes girls with curvy bits."

John Winters is all stiff and starts sobbing because Jessa used a spell on him and now he wont go to heaven and he will die.

Astra says, "And I don't have any and I'm not very pretty like you and Jess anyway."

Jessa says, "My name is Jessa not Jess."

Astra says, "I'm sorry, I meant to type Jessa."

Astra says, "That was meant to be OOC. >

OMG Twink Scene!

(OOC: 1912 flashback scene.... twink style!)

,-----------------------------------------------------.

Jessa Luna hovers into the courtyard with her wand pointed at her feet humming a song to herself

The beautiful Eva Wexler strides confidently into the courtyard with a pack of boys following after her, although she isn't paying attention to any of htem. :)

Astra Rathe walks in, her hood over her head as per usual and aping her elderes who are far better at being spooky. SHe'd be mocked and be called the littlest Nightgaunt if JRR had written his books, but he hasn't so yeah.

John Winters rides in on his completely non-magical horse that he smuggled here in his bag to protect him from EViL

Astra Rathe thinks or whatever it is. Because I'm gone. Ring Wraith.

Astra Rathe is so here.

Astra says, "OMG! A horsey!"

Eva Wexler is really beautiful and thinks John should be fawning all over her. "HI!"

Hi Eva" Jessa said amicably looking at Eva. However secretly she was thinking Eva is a SLUT.

Astra says, "My dad has better horses. He breeds warhorses. *she says with a raspy whisper that is totally affected and crap*"

Eva says, "HI JESSA" Eva thinks but she doesn't like Jessa. She thinks Jessa is an Evil Slytherine."

I am not an evil Slytherine.

Eva says, "What's wrong with your voice?"

thinks Jessa.

Eva says, "Are you an evil tangerine?"

Eva says, "I don't like tangerines."

Astra says, "You're a tangerine."

Jessa says, "Who are you going to the DANCE with, Eva?"

Jessa says, "Is it all the boys?"

Eva says, "I think JOHN, if he asks me. Ask me, JOhn!"

Eva says, "NO, they're mean."

John says, "My horse is the best in the world."

Astra Rathe sticks out her tongue from under the shadows of her hood so her emo 11 year old self can't be seen.

Eva Wexler thinks Astra is kind of weird.

John Winters makes everyone fall in love with his horseman ship skil.

Jessa says, "Nox!"

Astra Rathe falls in love with the horse by mistake.

Eva says, "Lumos!"

Jessa Luna falls to the ground and stops hovering.

Astra says, "Avada Kedavra!"

Jessa Luna dies

Eva says, "I'm telling!"

Astra Rathe suddenly has swirling red eyes!

Astra Rathe flies away.

Astra says, "BWAHAHAHAHA."

Eva says, "OMG, how cool! My eyes are as GREEN as EMERALDs. ARen't they pretty???"

Jessa Luna is dead

Astra Rathe comes back and revives Jessa because she totally didn't mean to kill her and stuff.

Eva says, "And all these boys are in love with me but I don't love them. THey just think I'm so beautiful and gorgeous."

Jessa says, "You're nice Astra"

Astra says, "We can be best friends!"

Jessa says, "Shut up RAVENslut."

John Winters's horse grows 3 sizes though it not magic and he hides begind it from spels and stuff

Eva says, "Hey, you're mean! I'm not a slut!"

Jessa Luna high-fives her new best friends. "Let's hex the Ravenslut."

Eva says, "I'm a virgin!"

Jessa says, "A virgin wore."

Eva Wexler just likes to wear only corsets.

Astra Rathe thinks John Winters will grow up to be Jonathan Winters and sing songs with the Muppets. Even though they aren't around yet.

Eva says, "Am not!"

Jessa says, "Whore"

Eva says, "You're a whore, whore."

Astra says, "I can be a virgin whore if I want!"

Jessa says, "You're a whorier whore. Whore."

Eva says, "You're the whoriest!!!"

John says, "I don't even like muppets whut are u saying to ME!!!?"

Astra says, "I'm too ugly to get any boys to like me."

Jessa says, "Yeah well!!!!!!"

Jessa Luna likes you Astra.

Astra says, "I have an idea that you'll all love!"

Jessa Luna is a lexbiann.

Astra says, "Let's go to the Hogs Head!"

Astra says, "With the Horse!"

Jessa says, "Okay!"

Eva says, "IT's becuase they're all in love with me, I'm sorri."

Astra says, "Yay!"

Astra says, "Come on Eva, you can come too!"

Eva says, "Okay!"

Astra Rathe giggles and runs to the Hog's Head.

Jessa says, "Only if she doesn't bring all the boys"

Jessa says, "hey lets ts astra"

John says, "let's go."

Astra says, "They can get drunk."

Jessa says, "lets ts all night long"

Eva says, "I don't want to ts with you your mean"

Astra Rathe walks out.

Eva says, "Wow, the hogs head its so cool in here"

John says, "omg we are in hogsmeade"

Astra says, "We are like so kewl."

Jessa Luna refuses to rape Eva
