Sally-Anne was sitting at her usual table in the back of the library. Her notes, which were usually neatly organized, were stacked in reckless piles on the desk. Sally had always had descent grades, but since the headmistress had reviewed her homework, her Transfiguration and Herbology grades had greatly suffered. She stared down at her newly ( Read more... )

"Hey Sally," Kyle spoke quietly, inviting himself to sit down next to her. Kyle looked exhausted, for he had been up all night thinking about the changes on his papers.

Now he was the smartest of the sixth year. Only grade-wise, he reminded himself, Grades I don't deserve.

ooc: Hi! I'm Felicia, and I play Matty Sanders [4th year Ravenclaw], Reina Benvinuto [7th year Ravenclaw], Kyle Emerson *up above* [6th year Ravenclaw], Sara Sanders [1st year Ravenclaw], and Ben Harper [5th year Slythern]. Basically, if you need a Ravenclaw, I can provide. Hahaha. Anyway, welcome to the community! Kyle needs friends, and he's a quiet Prefect... so, yay! We can make them already friends, or becoming friends, or whatever you like. If you want, my email is Princessangl2290@aol.com [it's dumb, I know, I was 8 xD] and we can decide how they view each other? Okay, I've rambled quite a bit now. *shuts up*

"Hey," Sally replied with a small sigh. She grabbed the stacks of parchments on the desk and made one neat pile out them. Cleaning and organizing things always seem to calm her down.

"So, got any of your work reviewed?" she asked the boy, raising an inquisitive eyebrow.

OOC: Hello to all of you! ;) I'm Stephanie. It's very nice to meet you. My email is crazie_steffie@hotmail.com (no shame in retro emails, it's quite a hassle to change it).

"...Yes," he replied, even softer. She had to know that only Ravenclaws and Slytherins got better grades. "I'm not proud, I'll have you know," Kyle added, looking at her with his tired eyes.

"Ummmm," she replied, distractedly chewing on the inside of her cheek. Of course, Kyle's mark had been raised by the recorrection.

"Well, it's not like you asked for it," she added with a small smile. "It's just a bit frustrating, you know?" She ran a hand through her hair.

She shook her head. "Let's talk about something else, okay?" It was pointless to dwell over the matter. "What's new with you?"

The only place Gwenn could even begin to get away enough to concentrate on her writing was the Library. Even there was touchy. Too many people kept sending her looks as if she could make this whole re-grading fiasco go away.

Finally giving up on the section of her novel she'd been trying to rewrite, the blonde headed off toward the front of the library again. When she caught sight of the other girl, she couldn't help stopping and looking down at the notes she had.

"I can help you with Herbology if you want." Though, from what Gwenn had heard the others say about their marks any sort of help would turn into an accusation of cheating.

ooc: Feel free to ignore this if you don't feel like another 3rd on here. And Since Felicia did an intro, I figure I might as well. Hi! I'm Christina (aka Chrissy) and I play Jake (5th year Huffle), Julie-Ann (1st year Huffle), Zoey (7th Year Gryff), Ron (we all know who he is), and Gwenn (obviously. She's Head Girl, Huffle). I was thinking they (as in Sally and Gwenn) could be pretty good friends? You ( ... )

Sally-Anne looked up from her Herbology essay and gave the older girl a small smile. Her "A" had been thickly crossed out and a failing mark had been written over it. Right underneath this, a comment about plagiarism had been scribbled.

“Would it make any difference?” she asked Gwenn, raising an eyebrow. "I could learn the book by heart and still fail." She let out a long, desperate sigh.

"Your grades got lowered too, uh?" she inquired, remembering some girls gossiping about it in the third floor bathroom.

ooc: Hi! I’m Steph. Nice to meet you (all of you really)! YAY! Sally had another friend.

"Good point. She'd probably say you were cheating if I helped you at all." Belatedly, Gwenn realized it was probably best not to say anything like that. With the uproar about the whole thing, it was hard not to.

Scrunching her nose up like she so often did, the Head Girl glanced around before leaning against the edge of the table. "Mine actually all, like, stayed the same. I was kind of surprised." Though she probably shouldn't have been since she'd been getting a bit of preferential treatment already since she was allowed to wear her over the top designer shoes whenever she wanted even when the other girls lost points for not completely following the dress code.

ooc: and I'm a ditz. I totally meant to say happy1hysterical is my sn on aim...not like msn or anything. XD

Sally rolled her eyes. This was ridiculous.

"My Herbology marks went down, as well as Transfiguration. Although, I'm still passing transfiguration with an A.. so that's alright I guess." She nervously glanced at her essays.

"I appreciate the offer though," she said truthfully to her friend. "Maybe you could proofread my next essay?" She looked up at the fellow housemate gratefully. It was at times like this she appreciated her house the most. They were always willing to help out, just and loyal to the end.

"I'm happy for you," she added, although she couldn't help a bit frustrated of all this favoritism. She was happy for her friend, really, but she still wished everyone would get the same treatment.

ooc: Not sure if I'll jump in or not, but I'm Angie, and welcome to the community! You'll find so many sweet people around, you'll get cavities from all the sweetness. :P

I just play one - Parvati Patil - well, does she need an introduction? Vati loves Huffies and gets along well with everyone, she's really nice and approachable. And of course, she's all about Divination and Astronomy. ;) And she's totally nuts about fashion so she's always up for discussiong it. She's pretty smart, too. ;)

OOC: I must agree with you, loads of sweet people around!

Very nice to meet you! I'm step and, as you know, I play Sally-Anne. She's a really sweet, hard-working girl. A bit shy and awkward around people she doesn't really know, but she's an excellent listener. I'm sure Vati and Sally will get along!

ooc: You're already fitting in very nicely. :)

Well, Vati would like to be friends with Sally for sure. :)

I did make a slight change from canon-Vati - mine isn't as gossipy as the book version. Mainly because her and Harry are so close, so I figured it was sort of neccesary. xD

OOC: Ha Ha! Thanks.
I really helps that everyone is so welcoming!

For Harry's sake, it's best the way. I would imagine he gets talk about enough as it is.

OOC: Hi! My name's Danielle and I play Angelica (Huffle), Derrick (Gryffie), and Heidi (Ravenclaw). I just wanted to say welcome to the community and that if Sally-Anne ever needs some sort of a plot, you can email me at x33gottadance@optonline.net. Angelica's a third year, so maybe she could look up to Sally. :)

Oh yeah, and sorry we're all bombarding you with introductions! We just really like new people. ♥

OOC: Nice to meet you! I'm steph (as you have probably read in the previous threads). I will definitely keep you in mine. Sally-Anne could always use new people to hang around. I'm sure she would love to be a role model. ;D
