Bloody Darkness: A Hogwarts RP [[Pg-13/Accepting in OOC/Started]]

[Compass]

Luke woke Up later then everybody else, and, changing, saw tryouts on the gryiffindor billboard for quittich. he doubted he would be good at it, but he decided to tryout as a keeper or a beater. Hitting things with bats was always enjoyable. Luke walked down the hallway a bit, then, glancing around, broke into a run, down the hallway to a large statue of a griffin. gasping "Animagus." to the doorway, which leapt aside, he walked into the headmisteress's office...coming out a few minutes later and then headed towards the great hall.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene looked up and smiled as she saw Luke coming towards them. "hey, Luke! We have potions first today with the Slytherins... sit here!" she was ever so cheerful, as usual. It never tired her. "At least we know that Slughorn's nice."

She looked around. The tables were filling up and they had about fifteen to twenty minutes before their first period started, Potions. She shrugged and continued to eat her bacon.

[The Final Messenger]

Virgil stopped playing when he realized there was a crowd around him. He put his things under his four poster bed and walked to the Great Hall for breakfast, there he saw Elena, Selene, and Jecht. He waved at them and filled his plate with bacon, eggs, and sausage at the Ravenclaw table and walked over to them and sat down with them. "Hey, guys," Virgil said scarfing down a sausage.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene smiled at the new arrival; they were starting to make a crowd. "Hi, Virgil. Sleep well?" she said, as an attempt of making conversation.

She finished eating and pushed back her plate. She looked around at them all. "Hey, Virgil, what do you have first, anyways? I know that the Slytherins and the Gryffindors have Potions first. What do you guys have?" she asked, merely out of curiosity.

She stared around. Ten minutes left.

((fixed the schedule in the OOC thread, btw))

[ArtemisFowl]

Jecht nodded toards the Slytherin girl, Elena. Then returned to eating his breakfast. After he was done eating he had to take out his schedule to find out what his first class, so after a couple of minutes of runbling through his bag Jecht pulled out a crumpled up piece of paper. He uncrumpled the pice of paper to find out he had potions first period with the Slytherins. He hated potions. Following instructions, very specific instructions, and he usully ended up blowing something up.

[The True Ace Attorney]

"Hello Jecht. Nice name." Elena said to the boy who had joined them. As she did another boy, the Ravenclaw, who had joined partway. "Hello Virgil." Elena said politely. "Everyone had a good sleep? Have you Gryffindors had enough sleep to mix a potion?" She realised she may have been a little rude and promptly slammed her head into her crossed arms, heavily embarrassed. Lifting her head to get a breath she quickly followed, "I think today's going to be good. Has anyone signed up for Quidditch tryouts?"

[DarkAngel787]

Selene nodded to Elena. "I signed up for chaser. Oh, Slytherin's SO gonna be owned this year," she said playfully, not meaning it a bit.

 

Selene stood. "I'm going to class. Anyone of you coming with me?" she offered. "I just don't wanna be late." she said ruefully.

She pushed in her bench as well. She grabbed her bag and straightened, stretching. "Agh. No matter how I look, I hate mornings. Especially Monday mornings." she shrugged and slung her battered, old bag over her shoulder. She looked at all of them.

"Anyone coming?' she offered. "Jecht? Luke? Elena?"

[Luna Lovegood]

Sarah was sitting with her friends at breakfast. 'What's first?' asked Harry.

 

Isis pulled out her schedule. "Defence Against the Dark Arts with Hufflepuff. Should be good. Anyways, why could you check your own schedule?"

 

"Lost it. Right after dinner. Mind if I copy yours during break?"

 

"Sure, why not?"

 

"Bet we don't get any homework today!" said Adam.

 

"Knowing McGonagall? Well get loads!" said Sarah

[The Final Messenger]

"I actually slept very well, oh and I think I have Defense Against the Dark Arts with the Hufflepuffies," he said finishing up his plate, "Anyways who here's gonna try out for Quidditch? I'm gonna be the point announcer, as usual nobody signs up for it so I'm definatly gonna win, like last year and before that." Virgil grabbed a roll and carved a human onto it and ate the peelings and the carved out human. "I kinda like potions, not that much I just kinda do" he responded to Jecht's comment as he walked to the DADA room.

[The True Ace Attorney]

"I'll come," said Elena, "just let me get my bag." She hurried over to the Slytherin table, picked up her bag and headed back to where Selene was. "And in no way will Slytherin lose. Not with me defending the rings! That is," she added hurredly, "IF I get onto the team." Wondering if anyone else was coming, she looked quizzically to the others. "You're the commentator?" she asked Virgil, with raised eyebrows and adding playfully, "Ready to get used to saying our names?"

[DarkAngel787]

Selene grinned at her comment. "yeah, you better get my name right," she teased. "Just kidding. Come on, Elena. We'll be late. You coming?" she asked Luke and Jecht.

She looked around, wondering where the sixth year girl was...what was hername? Oh yes. Tasmin. She acted like such a zombie yesterday. Huh. Whatever, Selene thought. What WAS with the zombie behavior?

Oh well.

 

"Let's go, we don't want to be late!"

[The Final Messenger]

Virgil took a seat up front and waited until Professor Lichness would come in. He would enjoy most of class especially the best part of Defense Against the Dark Arts; learning spells, today we would be learning some counter spells, atleast that is what he read in the Lichness's notes. He walked back to his seat and stared at the door waiting for the teacher to come in. I hate waiting...

[The True Ace Attorney]

Elena turned to leave while smiling, Selene playing along had been nice, and said to Selene, "I'm leaving now, you coming?" As she left she noted that, even though it was the beginning of the year, there were a few large yellow gems at the base of the giant Hufflepuff hourglass. "I wonder who's been extra good." she wondered to herself, heading towards the dungeons. Stopping outside the potions classroom she straightened out her clothes and waited for her classmates, hoping she would be able to create a Draught of Living Death.

[ArtemisFowl]

"Yeah." Jecht said hurrily grabbing up his bag, after scarfing down one last peice of bacon of course, and following after them. He was thinking about the Quidditch thing. Maybe he'd try. Who knows maybe he'd get lucky and make it, he always thought it would be fun to play it. Despite that he had never ridden on a broom once in his life besides the flying lessons in his first year. Which admittingly didn't go so well.

[Compass]

"Potions?". Luke muttered. "Oh good. Just what we needed. Potions.". he looked at his barely- touched bacon bridge he had constructed out of the very stuff. "I hope I can make whatever we're making.". He followed the others over to potions class, where slug horn was greeting them with open arms and a jovial smile. he sat at his own table, getting out his cauldron and the other items, looked at a beozoar with a diguisted look on his face. This had been in a goat!

[DarkAngel787]

Selene grinned as Jecht joined them, but they needed to hurry. She strode briskly downthe hall, taking the various turns that would lead them down to Slughorn's classroom.

They reached the room and sat down near the back. Slughorn was grinning and jovial as usual.

"Welcome, welcome! Today, we will start out simple... though, not TOO simple, of course! Fifth years, Confusement and Befuddlement droughts. The instructions of which are on the right side of the board! Sixth years! Sorry to have to group the two years together...but... oh well, that aside. Sixth years! Draught of Living Death, please, the instructions of which are on the LEFT side of the board. Begin! Begin!"

 

Selene immediately thrust her nose into her book. The instructions were difficult but not too bad. She pored over the ingredients needed. There needed to be sneezwort, scurvy-grass, and lovage. She rifled through her bag to pull out the ingreedients, sneezing at the sneezwort.

[Compass]

Luke sighed, deciding that he didn't feel like making a confinement potion, and began to work on the drought of living death, which sounded much cooler. Storing the potion in the right manner while adding the right ingreidents, he , working hard, managed to finish before anyone else in the class. "Proffesseur Slughorn? Will you look at my potion? Did I do it right?". Luke asked, eager to please and even more eager to be able to daydream about keeping and beating.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene worked studiously on her potion, deciding to do what the other fifth years were doing. She finished her potion with a last flourish of adding a dab of sneezewort, and nodded to herself.

Slughorn peeked at both of their potions. "Ah, Selene. Good, good. And you, Luke...hmm...not what I expected! I didn't expect you to be doing sixth year work. But it's alright, though a bit more of bean juice wouldn't do much harm. Top marks for both of you!" he said, nodding emphatically. "You'll still be doing the homework the other fifth years are doing, though, m'boy Luke. You can begin; we still have some class time. Look up the effects of Sneezewort and write a six inch essay on other potions its used for. That's all!"

He walked away, chuckling.

Selene groaned. Six INCHES? She might as well get started.

[Compass]

Luke looked confused. 6 inches? why not say half a foot? Or, for that matter, why not half of 12 inches? Wait, why not say 6 inches? 6 inches it is. Luke got to work, but it dissolved into him sniffing the sneeze wart and sneezing, of course. He was having fin, but then a panicked expression crossed his face. He mouthed 'vision' to Selene, and ran out of the door to the classroom, ignoring Slughorn. he stopped on,y a few feet away, arms straight at his sides, and began to recite again. "But see, above the mimic rout..."

[DarkAngel787]

"Sorry sir," Selene said plaintively, mind whirring at a plausible excuse for his behavior. "Ah...uhm... Luke was feeling a bit light-headed, and he told me he was afraid he was goign to be sick, so he ran out as to make sure he wouldn't get sick all over his potions stuff."

Slughorn nodded, buying it all. "Very well. Make sure m'boy Luke feels better, eh?"

He walked, or, due to his bulk, waddled off to look at other potions.

Selene peered outside the door and saw Luke reciting other things. "Luke? You alright?"

[The Final Messenger]

"Urgh class is half done and the teacher hasn't come yet," Virgil murmered to himself. Then all of the sudden the teacher walked it , FINALLY, Virgil thought as she lectured on and on about what we learned last year or something, he wasn't listening until Professor Lichless called on him and asked him if he knew unlike the others, Virgil said, "When the school year ended we had learned about boggarts, protective spells, well known curses, etcetera." Then the lesson started and we learned about counter spells we could use against our enemies. It was actually sort of boring, but that was to be expected as it was the first day.

[Compass]

"In human gore imbued.". Luke finished, and wobbled, but stayed upright. "I think it was just the same poem. It's never happened twice in the same week, though. It's strange...sorry to drag you out of class.". Luke sighed looking down. "What does it mean? What can it mean? ugh!". Luke threw his head in his hands, breathing hard. What was a poor, vision-hating, 5th year seer boy to do? He wracked his brains for what it could mean, but no answer presented itself.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene grabbed his arm; he still looked quite imbalanced. "It's okay. At least you didn't pass out, right? That means you must be improving or something." to what he was improving, she had no idea; she just wanted to be optimistic. "There you go..." she helped him back in his seat. "False alarm, professor, but he does still feel a bit dizzy."

"Oh, sorry to hear that! Would you like to go to Madam Pomfreys? You two are done with your work anyways; it wouldn't hurt if he'd like." Slughorn bellowed, though this was his normal voice.

Selene shrugged. "Luke? You alright?"

[Compass]

Luke suddenly had a burst of inspiration. "I'd like to go to the infirmary, if just to lie down for a bit.". Luke did his best to look sickly and green. "I'll just...oh!". Luke tripped and barely caught himself in a rather convincing act. "I'm...ugh.". He noticed a kid's cauldron looked like it was full of vomit, and stuck his head inside it, the boy looking confused while Luke made vomiting sounds. "S-sorry...". He grimaced.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene knew exactly what he was doing, and she stifled a grin as she watched the small fourth year's reaction to his "retching".

"I'll escort him... he may not be able to walk himself," she said, feigning a worried expression on her face.

"Of course, of course. Madam Pomfrey'll be able to sort him out, definitely! Carry on, carry on!" he said to the fourth year in which Lukehad retched into his cauldron. He had mistaken the fourth year's look of consternation for a look of plain astonishment at the boy that was sick. "And clean the vomit out of that, Kyle."

Selene grinned as she helped Luke along, finally out of the classroom. "Genius." she commented. "That was fake, right?"
