    Closed Decisions, Decisions

    It seemed like a long time ago Millicent had sat on the floor of the library, ensconced in cushions and blankets, reading books she didn't understand to take her mind away from home. She still missed her parents, of course, but the homesickness no longer consumed her; she would stop mid-class...

    Open Handstand Practice

    "Really?" said Millicent. She'd never met anybody who didn't know how to do a handstand. Before she could offer to demonstrate, Billie made a valiant attempt that ended much the same way hers had a minute earlier. Millicent laughed, not unkindly. "Don't worry, it takes practice. I used to be...

    Open Handstand Practice

    Millicent was half way to the ground on attempt number two when somebody suddenly spoke to her. She stumbled forward to avoid falling on her face. Once she'd regained her balance she turned around, her cheeks so red that her freckles disappeared. "Oh. Hi," she said. Had the girl come to laugh at...

    Open Handstand Practice

    Open after Tayla! Millicent hadn't expected to miss her friends from school. They'd never really been friends, after all - more like people who played with her out of obligation. But she hadn't had to introduce herself to them; they'd grown up together, and as such were familiar with each...

    Open (Definitely Not) Hiding

    Millicent looked up, tucking an unruly strand of red hair behind her ear. "Oh. Yeah, OK," she said, shifting over a little bit to allow the Hufflepuff access to the windowsill and a few of the cushions. Immediately she was less comfortable. The floor was cold where it had been exposed, and...

    Open (Definitely Not) Hiding

    A light rain fell softly against the long library windows. Ensconced in pillows beneath the windowsill, Millicent closed her eyes. In the pauses between hushed conversation on the other side of the library, she could almost pretend she was at home, sitting in her living room, breathing in the...

    I really wasn't sure where Millicent would end up, but she'll blossom in Gryffindor :wub:

    "I am!" said Millicent, laughing. "I don't really care either, as long as we're together."

    "Oh, you're just being silly," said Millicent, putting the eyebrow pencil carefully back in her mother's makeup bag and zipping it shut. "Of course I am. Really excited," she said, though there was a lump in her throat. She had been away from home before, but not for months on end. And she'd...

    "You're not ugly!" said Millicent, shaking her head. Where did her sister get these sorts of ideas from? "Don't rub them, you'll make them worse. Honestly, I think it looks OK." She didn't sound certain, but she was trying her hardest. "I think so. All hair grows back, doesn't it?"

    "Why are you so worried about it?" Millicent asked, frowning. She added a few more strokes to even up the left eyebrow and then decided to quit before she made it even worse. "OK, it's done."

    Closed A step too far

    Millicent knew better than to argue with her sister - especially with an eyebrow pencil in her hand. Not that it made much difference. The caterpillars had turned into hamsters. "Not looking like that," she said, before she realised Hortensia was being serious. "Of course they will! You're so...

    Closed A step too far

    Millicent hadn't decided yet if she was going to tell on Hortensia or not. Maybe she would save up her sister's transgressions until she had enough to get her into really big trouble. She sat down on a fluffy stool and assessed Hortensia's eyebrow situation. "You already did!" she said...

    "Yes she will," said Millicent. Their mother always knew when something had moved, and she wasn't going to be pleased with Hortensia for this. Advancing into the bathroom, Millicent tried to take the eyebrow pencil from her. "Let me do it, you'll probably draw them on all wonky."

    "You've got no eyebrows left!" Millicent said, the stolen chocolate completely forgotten. "You look awful. They were fine how they were! Is that Mum's makeup bag? Does she know you're using it?"

    Millicent raced up the stairs, an empty chocolate bar wrapper clutched in her fist. If Hortensia had been in her secret stash, she would... she would... well, she'd do something. Grass her up to their parents. Yes. That would show her. She'd probably have to give Millicent her chocolate...
