After looking at the lineup for Quidditch on the common room noticeboard, AJ had been quick to leave the common room. He was frustrated, though he didn't want anyone to see it. He'd made his way all the way down to the student lounge, still annoyed at the results of the tryouts. A first year had...

Cyrus was frustrated with himself. He had lost some of his poems, somehow. He kept them in a folder that he kept in his bag, just in case he ever wanted to work on them between classes or after studying. But the whole folder was gone. Cyrus thought he might have left it in the library last night...

Hazel's good intentions of doing better in her classes was a bit easier now that she had fewer classes. She was actually caught up with her homework for once. She had hoped to catch one of her friends in the Student Lounge, but she didn't see any of them there. With a twinge of resentment, she...

Vanity took her job as team captain of Slytherin seriously. She wanted to wint his year. So she had decided that a good way to gather some information on the other teams was to spy on their tryouts. She really needed to watch the Gryffindor tryouts, but today she had some time and decided...

Theodore Westwick had been a parent for nearly twelve years, and he still didn't feel like he knew what he was doing. The twins had been fairly easy babies and toddlers, mostly because they were so similar to how he and Edmund had been. It was familiar, so it wasn't difficult for him. But when...

AJ felt like he was buzzing with energy, he had all morning. He'd hurried his family along through breakfast, eager to get to the station and to the train. Some part of him was sure something would go terribly wrong, something huge that would cause him not to go to Hogwarts after all. So what AJ...

Arachne Westwick had felt unmoored for months, ever since her sister had stopped talking to her. She had filled the silence with her new friends, and in a lot of ways felt more free than she had before, but she did miss Nessie a lot. It was like a part of her was wandering around in the world on...

It had taken AJ some convincing, but he had been allowed to walk over to the park on his own while his mother and some of his younger siblings were busy shopping. He supposed she didn't mind having fewer kids to keep track of for a moment, and he was the oldest and most responsible, he could be...

Landon was glad that his girls were making friends, and very happy that Camille was still keeping in touch with her sister despite their differences. His home had always been open to June as well, but he was never offended that she had declined his offer all those years ago and had never changed...

Arachne Westwick was confused and scared. Never before had she been in a fight with Nessie. Was that what this was? It was the day after Halloween, and she had gone over the exchange with her sister all night, thinking it over until she fell asleep, then dreaming about it too. Her dreams had...

Anisha wasn't sure how she had ended up in St. Mungo's, but here she was. It all felt a bit like an overreaction, but at the same time, the big gash in her arm was refusing to heal with all the normal healing spells, and that was pretty bad. After Hogwarts, Anisha had known she wanted to duel...

Logan had been angry ever since he'd seen he hadn't made the team. He had hoped that he'd get over it, and he probably would eventually, but right now he was still mad. He had done well, he knew he had. But they had picked a girl over him, one that wasn't even any older than him. It really...

Initially Juniper had been very nervous when her Charms Professor had invited her for tea. She'd been sure she had already managed to do something wrong, maybe she had been wrong about her wand? But then she realized she'd only attended one lesson so far and that the Professor had also invited...

Vanity headed to the Quidditch pitch, frustrated with herself. She hadn't done well at all during the past Slytherin practice, and she had a game to play soon. Now that she was captain, it mattered how she performed. She knew the Slytherins would never accept her or respect her if she didn't do...

It was strange, to be the youngest professor here. Louis knew he was hardly a professor, instructor was probably a better name for his position. But still. He had been happily surprised to see someone around his age on the staff, and someone he knew as well. Molly Burke had been his roommate's...

Lars felt dread pooling in his stomach as he stood in front of Lily's door. He wanted to be there for her, but he also wasn't sure if he could actually be of any help. He had brought a basket full of things she liked, snacks and a few books, but he knew it wouldn't do anything to help. He...

Logan was angry. No, he wasn't just angry, he was pissed off. Despite trying his best and practicing so much over break, Logan hadn't made the Slytherin team. Again! It was so unfair! He would have tried to tell himself it was just because of his age, but then one of his stupid classmates was...

It was nice to he back at school with her friends. Hazel was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard with Lucy, just chatting. She was telling her friend about her break, kicking her feet back and forth a little. "So, then I met up with Kyousuke in Obsidian Harbour, and it was just the two of...

Cyrus was walking along the corridor, a little lost in thought. He had some History of Magic homework to catch up on later and he was considering heading outside. The weather wasn't horrible, and it would be nice to get some fresh air. He glanced out of a window he passed, smiling as he looked...

Cyrus was acutely aware of his grades, and how disappointing they were so far. He was determined to do a bit better this year, as the fourth year was an important one. So even though it was only the first week of classes, Cyrus had headed to the library before dinner to get some studying in...
