Magnificent possibly was the best adjective to describe the Great Hall in it's current state. He laughed, "Yeah, the sort of party your grandma might enjoy then!" Jarek himself hadn't expected anything bad, just not as big as this. "I expected a meal like the Sorting Ceremony, only one we...

Oh sweet Merlin, Jarek's parents were going to murder him when they see how poorly he had performed in his first year exams! They were usually supportive of their son but there were too many P's to even pretend that he had put any effort into his studies. Yep, they were going to be very...

OOC: Sorry it's taken me so long to reply, the last week has been hectic! And sorry for my lack of muse! Jarek was impressed with Aya's magic, he wasn't able to mark a glowing 'x' in bark, as a matter of fact he had never tried. "Cool" He said, "Where did you learn to do that?" He followed...

Jarek searched the ground around them for something which resembled a broomstick, or alternatively a wand. He wasn't sure about pretending to be a pirate, but he wouldn't mind pretending to be Merlin! Jarek had his real wand securely stowed away in his waistband. Since he purchased his wand...

It had always been assumed that Jarek would, at the age of 11, be attending Hogwarts. Almost as if everything else before then was just a warm up. His parents had exposed him to the muggle way of life to ensure that he didn't get too wrapped up in magic and forget that there is a world outside...

Hey I wouldn't mind roleplaying with one of your characters :) Mason is probably the only one Jarek would get on with as they seem quite similar. But I would equally be up for roleplaying with one of the others. Jarek is a son of two muggleborns and is offended by prejudice because of that.

Jarek let Aya lead the way, putting his arms out in front of him to stop any branches she moved out of her way from being flung back and hitting him in the face. He had fallen for that one before when bringing up the rear on a bush walk and now automatically protected himself against stray...

Jarek had never met a homeschooled person before. "Really?" He didn't hide his surprise before asking, "What was that like? Did you have a tutor or did your parents teach you?" Jarek couldn't imagine being taught by his parents, he didn't think either of them would have opted for sitting at home...

Jarek stood on tip toes and craned his neck to see if he could get a better insight into the path ahead but it didn't make much difference. As a matter of fact it didn't make any difference whatsoever so he stopped and looked back at Aya. "You want to take a new path?!" He spoke with a tone of...

Now that Jarek had been asked along, he had to go into the Forest. The newly sorted Gryffindor couldn't turn down an offer like that even if he wanted to! "Yeah I'll come along if you want me to." Said Jarek, stepping forward and walking towards the forest at a leisurely pace. He reached a small...

The castle! That would have been Jarek's second guess as to where the girl had come from. "That makes sense, I came from there too!" He clocked that the girl was a Gryffindor by the emblem on her robes and probably a first year like him. He helped her up onto her feet and smiled briefly. "Uh-...

Jarek was surprised that he had never heard of the Bay of Islands, especially since he did say he was from Auckland. He shrugged, "Oh it's a couple of hours North of Auckland. He said vaguely. He would have expanded but he had much more pressing things to do, aka stand up on a swing. As...

Jarek had not noticed that someone else was there until he heard someone swear. He spun around to the source of the noise and had expected to see someone straight away, but it took a few seconds before realising that the heap on the ground had been the source, the heap on the ground was a girl...

Jarek tried to contain his excitement and respond casually to the Avie saying he was going to Hogwarts at the end of the summer. He replied in a casual way, "Me too. We'll be in the same year. That's pretty cool." This confirmed that their new nicknames Azza and Jai would be sticking. "My mum...

It was a bonus to hear that the food was always good, it made Jarek feel positive about everything else and how impressive the castle will be once he gets a chance to explore if this was just the beginning. It surprised him that with such a feast everyday, none of the old students around him had...
