Harper had been a little apprehensive about the break. Would it be strange, she wondered, to come home and see all her friends starting their adult lives while she still had a semester of school left? What was she supposed to say when they asked about her own plans? Thankfully, most of her...

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...

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...

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...

Lucas had been hoping to have a good night, but being here by himself wasn't very fun, especially not with Connor and Kas going together. Lucas had spotted them earlier and had quickly walked the other way. He still liked being around Kas, but he couldn't put up with this stupid charade they had...

There were only two reasons Harper ever ventured down into the kitchens: either she needed snacks for a get-together with friends or she needed ice to soothe an injury. Unfortunately, it was the latter reason that had sent her down here today. She'd been reading in her favorite tree when a...

After asking around the seventh-floor corridor if someone knew a boy called Nikko Blackwood, Oscar was relieved to hear that Nikko was a Gryffindor. Since he was already close to the Gryffindor common room, the boy hoped to find his next delivery here as well. He'd have to ask around some more...

Lucas had been debating this for a while now, but he'd eventually decided to just go for it. He wanted to take Nikko Blackwood to the yule ball, and he wasn't going to wait around to be asked. He had decided he would do it today, which had resulted in a very bad night's sleep. But now, after...

Lucas wasn't too nervous about Quiddich tryouts, but he still felt a little bit jittery about it. He had been the alternate seeker last year, but that didn't mean he'd get the spot again this year. Not if anyone else did it better. The boy was heading to the pitch early, hoping to get a bit of...

The school year had barely started, but Harper was already working her way through the football training routine she'd put together over the holidays. She didn't want to admit it, but the matches she'd played during the break had been harder than expected. The problem wasn't that she was out of...

Open after Kadi posts with Nikko Emma had wanted to send roses this year, but she was also delivering them. She had realized that if she sent a ton of roses, she probably had to deliver more too. That sounded like a lot of work, and while she was looking forward to the deliveries, she did hope...
