As much as Harper enjoyed being a seventh year, being the oldest in the school also came with some undeniable downsides. There were NEWTs, of course, and the pressure of having to come up with post-grad plans. But the one that she was least looking forward to was having to spend another year...

For more than six years, Harper had attended ever single class without fail. It wasn't that difficult of a feat considering she lived at school and magic could cure most minor ailments. But that was going to change today. Inspired by old teen movies and a couple high school bucket lists on the...

Kneading dough on a kitchen counter littered with flour that was only interrupted by the cranking of his pasta maker in early hours of the morning was a tide and true routine of Leo's whenever he had something on his mind. It was a cycle he found himself caught in more often recently, given all...

Celia had known she'd made the right choice in turning down her mom's offer to let her transfer to Ilvermorny. She was simply in too deep at Hogwarts. Transferring schools now would mean giving up her prefect badge, her spot on the Quidditch team, the Sisterhood. It would mean giving up on the...

Anisha was regretting not taking Raafe with her to the library, or bringing some sort of cart or something. She had been a little too enthusiastic, borrowing as many books as she could. Now, she had to carry the whole stack with her to the common room. It was heavy and so tall she could barely...

Abby was a little nervous to be back at Hogwarts. The girl had trouble making a few friends at school, she was too shy for her own good. But this year she wanted to at least try and make a friend or two. The Gryffindor girl made her way towards the Hogwarts garden. Hoping to somewhat find some...

Chase wasn't used to having other kids trust him with.. well, anything really. It was something that was mainly his own fault because he hadn't even tried to make friends back at his old school. He had done the opposite really. Try his best not have anyone hang around him. If he didn't place...

Open after Kadi posts with Ethan Emery had been pleased when his order arrived this morning with the owl post, he had spent most of his allowance on it and it had taken a bit longer than he had expected. The big box of chocolate frogs had drawn a few stares at the table this morning, but Emery...

Harper was sick of being scared. Her animagus training had ground to a halt, and she knew the only way she could move forward was if she got over her fear of transforming. It had taken her a few days to come up with a plan. The lessons with Professor Abberline weren't helping, and she wasn't...

Ivy had felt a little weird around Brooke ever since she had gotten the prefect's badge at the start of the year. It really was unfair that Brooke hadn't gotten one, she really deserved it, but now that Ivy had gotten one it just felt strange. Last year, it had been them against the world, both...

Lucas had enjoyed the recent Hufflepuff win, it had definitely lifted his mood a bit. He still wasn't his old cheerful self, but it was hard to stay angry after a win like that. He didn't feel entirely like he could take credit for how well it went, but he was still pleased with it. Though it...

It occurred to Harper as she rummaged through one of the cabinets in the Kitchens that she probably should not be doing this. Taking food without asking the elves was technically against the rules, and she was now a prefect — a fact that was surprisingly easy to forget sometimes — which meant...

Paige couldn't believe how busy she'd be with her NEWTs. She also couldn't believe how much she'd need to read for every class she was taking this year. Her backpack was so heavy because of all the books that she was carrying around the school, that she would not be surprised if something would...

Once the practice was over and the Gryffindor team retreated to the locker room to get changed again, Stan was feeling rather tired and was aching all over from all the flying and throwing and stealing that he had done. He thought that he had done a good job, though and was very happy that he...

It wasn't unusual for Harper to come back from school breaks a little football-obsessed, and this year was no exception. Between playing with her club and obsessively following the Women's World Cup, her winter had mostly been devoted to the sport, and she wasn't quite ready to let it go...

It had taken a lot of willpower not to eat all the candy right away, but Louis knew he needed to show his friends. He had bought a huge box of assorted Honeydukes products, and what was the point of having something like that if you weren't going to brag about it a little? He had asked René and...

Freya had a problem. She had been at Hogwarts for six entire years and still hadn't broken the news about being a witch to her brother. It was getting harder to keep it a secret now that he had his own place and let her stay for the holidays. He expected letters, updates, news about what she was...

((Open after Kadi posts with Indira Khatri)) Weston had thought that just seeing the man-eating eel would be enough to satisfy his curiosity about the creature. But it turned out the opposite was true. His near-death encounter with the eel had only increased his interest in the monster, and he...

Claudia was glad to have all her daughters home for Christmas. Until recently, Diana and Alice had still lived with them, but now both girls had left the nest. Alice was living with her boyfriend and another girl, while Diana lived on her own. Phoebe lived with her partner Charlie and Rose with...

Louis had put on a suit for tonight, though he felt a bit uncomfortable in it. He wasn't very used to wearing formal clothes like this, but it seemed to fit the evening. He didn't have a date for the yule ball, instead, Louis had found a few of his classmates to hang around with. Both René and...
