Maddox hadn't even noticed that Jamie hadn't come to sleep in the dorm. He was exhausted and just wanted to sleep. So, that's what he did. Now he was stirring and something had woken him up. What the eff?
He sat straight up and jumped out of bed before stumbling into Jamie as they fell to the ground. "Whut? What... What?"
Re: Tuesday, November 13th - Early Morningmaddox_dixonJanuary 25 2008, 03:54:40 UTC
"Not at all, really..." Maddox grumbled as he got up off of Jamie. "What the bloody hell are you doing up this early anyways?" He glanced over to see Jamie's bed unmade.
"Oh, I see you're already off doing god knows what with random girls again, are you?"
Wednesday November 15th - late evening.hannah_salixJanuary 25 2008, 06:15:00 UTC
Hannah was still in a daze over what she'd learned that evening. Not in Astronomy, which was where she should have been, but from her talk with Madame Noire, the Hufflepuff Librarian. After walking for about an hour, she'd returned to the Ravenclaw Common Room and didn't know where to go from there.
She found herself standing in front of Derek's dorm room, wanting to knock or something, but hesitating. No, it was stupid to hesitate. So instead she knocked and waited for someone to answer.
Just tell him that... you need him around. Don't tell him why, just... yeah. He'll understand.
Re: Wednesday November 15th - late evening.derek_blyJanuary 25 2008, 06:42:54 UTC
Knocking? People didn't generally knock on the dorm door- certainly not this late. Then, Derek supposed if someone was going to drop in randomly at this hour knocking was maybe polite. It wasn't like many people came by to visit. He lived with Tim and Atticus.
As it happened Derek wasn't asleep yet so he rolled off of the covers and moved to open the door. When he did, he paused. "Hannah." Derek hadn't expected to see her there and had to get through a surprised blink before shaking it off. No time to be ridiculous; she was here for some reason. "Is everything okay?" he asked, turning concerned.
Re: Wednesday November 15th - late evening.hannah_salixJanuary 25 2008, 06:50:49 UTC
Hannah really couldn't help it, she rushed in towards Derek and hugged him. "Yeah, everything is okay. I mean, not... well yes. But, can you come... with me? I don't know, maybe to the tent? I need to talk," she said in a rushed voice. There weren't many people that she could talk to about this, and Derek was definitely one of the few that she'd confided in with what had happened to Isabel. Actually, he was the only one. Hannah hadn't told Anora simply because she didn't want to incriminate Isabel any further.

It was strange, under any other circumstances the hug would have seemed awkward, now. At least it seemed like it should have. Maybe...it wouldn't. Probably not. Hannah was just comfortable. Nothing had really changed that, even when Derek had been feeling at his worst.
Her dropping in didn't give him time to think and Derek could tell that she wasn't here on a whim. He wrapped his arms around her like it was the natural thing to do (which it was) and listened seriously. "Yeah. Of course." No question there. If she needed him- Hannah had him.
"I should grab my jacket." And probably shoes while he was at it, he realized. Derek wasn't sure if he should let go of her. "You want to come in or wait here?" he offered. Maybe he'd grab another sweater for her too...

Derek was staring down the Common Room. Oddly, there was a speedy Quaffle. Ruth Ann sighed at the sight of a bat swatting. "Bollocks!". Really, how could that happen in the dorm? Speedily. This school was clearly full of Snitches. "You look really violent beating like that," Cassie pouted.
Re: Monday, November 13th - Early Eveningmaddox_dixonJanuary 25 2008, 21:45:40 UTC
Maddox was heading past the Common Room when he saw Derek. After hearing that Jamie had gotten detention from Professor Crone earlier, Maddox felt awful. He knew that the Quidditch match was this weekend.
So, he walked over to Derek, who appeared to be... daydreaming or sleeping or something. "Hey Derek," he greeted as he sat down.
Re: Monday, November 13th - Early Eveningderek_blyJanuary 25 2008, 22:04:14 UTC
"What?" Apparently Derek had drifted off, which was a little ridiculous since it was Monday evening. Who fell asleep at the beginning of the week? Damn Quidditch stresses. He looked around with the confused expression of one woken from a nap, a little embarrassed that he was sleeping in the Common Room.
"Oh. Hey Mads." Well, this could actually be good once his brain cleared. Derek had kind of been wanting to see if Maddox had any tips for the first game or whatever.
Monday, November 20th - Early afternoonderek_blyFebruary 6 2008, 03:47:02 UTC
Wow, Derek...did not feel well this morning. He'd known he was getting a cold or something yesterday but the usual trip in to snag a quick cure from Russiani while she wasn't around hadn't seemed to help. No, no, he was definitely feeling worse today. It had taken a good hour for Derek to convince himself to get out of bed but he had class today. He couldn't just lay around. Maybe if he made himself move some he'd start feeling better. Yeah. Sure.
Which was why Derek was now huddled in one of the overstuffed chairs in the common room trying to sink farther into his sweater.
Re: Monday, November 20th - Early afternoonsweetandhoneyFebruary 6 2008, 03:52:24 UTC
Rebecca was in an unusually tired state that day and had taken a short nap directly after lunch. As she was now walking down from her dorm, still feeling a big drowsy, she caught sight of Derek and skipped on over.
"Hey, what's going on?" She smiled, though the smile faded once she noticed how he looked. Her nose scrunched up a bit as she took a seat next to him in another empty chair, "You're not looking so hot, Bly... you alright?"
Re: Monday, November 20th - Early afternoonderek_blyFebruary 6 2008, 04:06:08 UTC
"Hmm?" Someone was saying his name. "Oh, hey, Becca." Okay really Bly, you have to get over this. Get better. There's Defense to go to in a few hours. It was simply not on that he was feeling this under the weather. Who got fevers this time of year? Okay, maybe that was the wrong question to ask, cold weather and all. But still, that potion he'd nipped from Russiani should have taken care of whatever this was. It was supremely unfair that he was starting to have to wonder if he should go to class at all.
"Not really. I'm hoping it'll clear up though." Optimism. That was the key! "You might not want to sit too close though."
Re: Monday, November 20th - Early afternoonsweetandhoneyFebruary 6 2008, 04:13:45 UTC
Frowning, she shrugged, "I don't care. If you're sick then I want to help you," Yeah, really... she was kind of stupid for not caring whether she got something that was contagious but she hated seeing her friends ill. Especially when away from home. She knew what it was like and she hated getting sick when she was at school.
"Have you gone to the hospital wing at all?" It was the initial question to ask, even if she knew he would probably have gone to Russiani already.

Atticus was in his usual spot by the fire, a book in hand. Tonight he was studying History of Magic. This particular Goblin war was surprisingly interesting. He flipped the page, not really paying attention to those around him.

In the usual scheme of things, Pippa had no idea where the thing she actual wanted was, but to make up for its absence she had found several other things. She wasn't quite certain if this was a postive or negative thing yet, but as she flopped into a chair across from Atticus, shuffling papers.
Re: Tuesday, November 21 -- evening after dinneratticus_cartierFebruary 9 2008, 21:28:16 UTC
Atticus peered over his glasses at the loud shuffling of papers across from him. "Having problems?" he asked her, a wry smile curving at the corner of his mouth.
Re: Tuesday, November 21 -- evening after dinnerbidshistoricalFebruary 9 2008, 21:43:57 UTC
"Maybe," Pippa answered, still shuffling, since she was in all honesty, having problems. She just wasn't sure if she wanted to be honest about having problems. That was a level on the twelve steps that she wasn't so willing to grapple with.
