No, Jon has never been good with staying out of trouble. Only this time, it wasn't actually his fault - but still enough to get him to the infirmary. He was tending to the winged horses, grooming and feeding them, when he made a wrong movement that caused Twilight to freak for a moment and step on one of Jon's feet ( Read more... )

Studying in his room

Khameir has waited a couple of days, to ensure that Hades really has spoken with Professor Castillo. He doesn't want to unsettle her. Not more than absolutely necessary at least. He's found the way to her office easily, thinking about the subject and the questions he might ask her. If she's not there, he'll leave a note, but it is office hours so ( Read more... )

It's been a couple days since she talked to Jon. Ynez has pretty much sorted out what she can tell Lars about the conversation and what she can't, she just hasn't had much energy for anything but getting to class and to her office. Still, she doesn't want to leave it hanging much longer, so late one afternoon after her class ends, she heads to Lars ( Read more... )

Khameir needed to settle his things properly, so he could get into the routine of school again fast. He abhored this uncertainty and had spent the weekend going over the subjects he wanted to take N.E.W.T.'s in. Apart from beating one of the training dummies into a worthless pile of trash. An almost satisfying release of tension, only almost ( Read more... )

"Um, Madam MacFeydan," Simon said cautiously from across the infirmary. "I haven't found a conveyance to take me all the way to London and I was wondering if you could help me, and if perhaps you might have some shopping to do along Diagon Alley? I'd be happy to pay if you'd act as my guide."

Simon Tam, Hogwarts Medical Wing Resident, slouched down onto a bench realizing he'd forgotten to put his formal black robe on for dinner. It probably wouldn't matter... and he didn't want to climb all those stairs again to his room to put on a hot stuffy extra layer of clothing ( Read more... )

Elphaba clomped back into the dorm, black cloak tucked up and draped over one arm so that she wouldn't trip. She was muttering over the notes she'd made in Dervish and Banges, barely paying attention to anything or anyone as she made her way over to the bed and sat down crosslegged, still frowning over the notes.

Niki left her robes in the dorm and fetched her broom from the team's cupboard in the common room. She had the afternoon off and could go back and get them before dinner in the Great Hall. Right now she wanted to get her turns more tight on the new Nimbus, and hopefully, if Adrian was able to get down there after Herbology, she might be able to try ( Read more... )
