Espen had noticed the posters around the castle, the tall blond did not find them to be of his interest at first because he did not really look at them if he was honest. As they were rather plain and not the type that you would use to persuade people to step it up and come to a meeting that...

Their cousins were outright adorable, it was weird to see them in the position both he and his sister had been before. Fueled by their insecurities and ignorance, scared to even walk a corridor on their own or ask a teacher for advice. At first, some teachers looked intimidating - his head of...

Of course the rumours spread around of who would become prefect and whom would certainly not, Espen was not very fond of having so much responsibility so he was rather happy with the fact that he hadn't become one or to his knowledge, was considered to be up for consideration. But it did him...

As time moved on, people got older and along with the twins growing up more of their family would be able to join them on their magical journey here at Hogwarts. Not all of them, some were too young and would start studying at Hogwarts once Evelyn and Espen would be long passed graduation. Now...

Espen was not one to hurt people, despite his appearance often telling people the contrary. After all, it was the day of love and warmth and he was not one to ruin someone's day, by telling them his sister had never mentioned them. "Yeah. The name does ring a bell," he nodded eagerly and rolled...

Corrine. That was her name, luckily he was clever enough to ask for it before he would be left by himself at the Gryffindor House table. Neither did he want to have something like what happened at the Yule Ball, where he left without ever asking for Rose's name. Of course, he knew her name now...

"Family." He replied shortly, shaking his head at the thought of Rose sending her little sister to come see him. To share their struggles of siblings who loved to mess with them; perhaps the two could come up with a plan of their own, to mess with Rose and Evelyn for the sake of redemption...

"Most definitely. No worries about the other girls named Rose, to me you're the only Rose. Quite literally, since I don't know anyone else with that name either... unless we're counting Rosalind, but that's- nevermind." He sighed at himself, again with the rambles and the ache to tap into his...

Espen did not really expect someone to send him a rose, he was way too happy that the awkward conversations by delivering them himself were over. Those were pretty horrendous if you would ask him; perhaps even a reason for him to shy away from the event alltogether, next year. Nevertheless when...

Suprisingly enough, the girl he approached was the one he was looking for; figuring someone would have been done delivering roses by now. He was a little on the slow slide, not too known with everyone who was running through the castle because he hadn't been as engaged in the social actions as...

One of the coupple of roses he had yet to do was done and with a simple nod, leaving the guy to be with whatever message had been written down on the little leaflet attached to the rose; trying to find his way out of the quidditch pitch without being ambushed by a bunch of practicing students...

"Only a year apart, you do sound and act very mature." Probably more mature than he was, now that he was thinking about it. Then again, Espen's demeanour could easily shift from childish to mature, from kind to angry.. he was probably a bit bad with emotions; his first three years at Hogwarts...

It sounded like music to his ears when the Ravenclaw offered for Espen to step back and just let him read the message for himself, after all it could be something private and no one would have wanted for someone to start reading things that others weren't supposed to read out loud. "You are a...

As Espen tried his best to avoid the librarian at all costs, who only seemed to become more heated and angry with him as he tried to raise his voice in order to catch people's attention; to deliver the rose that he held in his hand; Espen noticed some movement and eventually a boy rose from his...

Thankfully the self-inflicted public humiliation did not go to waste, as the pun and his raised voice had attracted a few more students to look his way, the girl he was supposed to deliver the rose to was on her way what seemed to be the Great Hall. Letting out an exhale that could not say...
