He couldn't believe his luck sometimes. Couldn't believe that some people just simply wouldn't believe it of him. Oh the naivite of the darker crowd.

Chen stood outside the door of the Arithmancy classroom, hoping that this room would finally be the right one. He was duped by too many students, telling him that the club wouldn't be held in said classroom, but everywhere else in the castle. He heard it was in the Greenhouses, and then the Great Hall, and then the dungeons...

By now, he didn't trust anyone anymore.

Carefully, after brushing off his robes, he pushed the door open. Quietly peeking inside, Chen found one of his favorite professors in the castle! This must be the right place!

"Good evening, Professor!" Chen greeted Sorrows happily.

Looking down at himself briefly, he made sure his robes were clean, and that his badge wasn't crooked. He tucked a bit of hair behind his ear before choosing a place in the room to stand in.

Oh, but Chen's robes had looked so nice and clean!

She didn't walk through the door so much as she fell through it, and she didn't fall through it so much as she blasted through it, knocking over Chen and whatever else might've had this misfortune of getting in her way (read: a lamp). the commotion was startling to anyone who didn't know Louvika Hawkins (read: Professor Askes) and perfectly normal for anyone who did.

Or maybe not.

From somewhere around Chen's heels emerged the little (or so she appeared) girl with her tangle of red-gold curls and her hourglass figure. She smiled at everyone in the room in turn (including the very unfortunate lamp and Professor Askes' desk.

"'ey there, mates. Wassit?"

Cameo was just walking towards the arithmancy classroom when she heard a crash. Or rather a series of crashes. Perhaps she had been late and the dueling had already commenced? No, she had made sure to be punctual.

The blonde girl stood at the doorframe, taking in the scene. There were a few students, Professor Askses at his desk, wait... a few students entangled on the floor. Was that Chen?! While not having participated in many duels, Cameo was absolutely certain they did not begin by way of tackling, and was rather surprised to see the boy on the ground.

She walked cautiously around Louvika and Chen, nodding to the boy with a polite and curious smile, and ignoring the redhead. No doubt she was the cause, Gryffindors were always so painfully... loud. Why not be clumsy as well?
“Hello Professor, hello Sum,” she greeted the pair at the head of the classroom. She had been pleased to hear the club would take place in his class, as he was one of her favorite professors. If he was in charge, things were sure to be ran fairly.

"Ack!" Chen cried as he was knocked to the floor. What the bloody hell was going on!? He blinked a few times, just to make sure his head was still ticking correctly. Merlin, that was going to hurt later...

He felt his face flush when Cameo entered the room, smiling at him. He gave her an exasperated look that almost said 'I don't start duels with tackles, I promise!!' Chen's eyes darted toward the red-head that seemed to pop out of nowhere at his feet. Where did Lou come from!?

... Then it clicked.

"Leave it to Lou Hawkins to start such a mess, this early on!" he joked, smiling pleasantly at the Gryffindor. "Oh my-- My robes!"

Chen pouted as he lifted his sleeve up, examining the accumulating dust and/or dirt on the end of it. He rolled his eyes playfully at Lou, getting up to brush himself off again.
