Last time Felix had been in the library.. Felix realised he'd never been in the library, at least not until today. He didn't particularly consider himself a reader or someone who studied especially hard and as such he had very little reason to ever come in here. However, Felix now had a...

Lucy was deeply aware of the fact that this was her last chance to really show off a costume at Hogwarts. Over the years, she'd never really experimented with anything too magical, but now she was a seventh year she knew enough to do something special. She walked into the great hall, trying not...

Marley knew she needed to be on top of things when it came to her studies. There was going to be a lot to cover, especially with all the subjects she was taking this year, as well as her NEWTs. The Hufflepuff had done well so far with keeping on top of things. Making sure that she wrote down as...

Ollie was bummed that, as a first-year, he wasn't really able to try out for the team. It sucked, and he absolutely loved Quidditch too. He was sure so many first years were bummed about that, too. However, that didn't mean he could miss the opportunity to see his brother try out for the team...

It wasn't long until it was Oliver's turn to go to Hogwarts. He had heard about it all while his brother was here during his break, and the more Oliver had heard about it, the more excited he had become. Oliver was most excited for the Quidditch portion of Quidditch. He couldn't wait to do the...

It was almost time to go home, thank Merlin. But before they'd be able to go home for the holidays there was a ball, Yule ball. Juniper had worn a blue dress for the occasion and had found some flowers to put in her hair too. As she walked into the Great Hall her eyes widened as she took it all...

Juniper missed the beach, so very much. Even though she had a jar full of the sand from the beach there was a part of her that ached to look out the window and see the endless water of the ocean outside. Though it'd been rather exciting to be here, at the school, learning new things everyday it...

This year had already been hectic, and this was only the start. Eoghan knew that he had another semester to get through, and even then, what would change? Life at Hogwarts had become much busier since his third year and it was hard to keep up with everything going on. He could feel himself...

(Set near the end of Y48, just before the break!) Eloise couldn't wait for her turn at Hogwarts. Before she knew it, it wouldn't be long until the school year would be ending and Eloise would be able to see her brother again. Maybe she could pester him with questions about Hogwarts so she knew...

When Marley wasn't busy with Quidditch, the Hufflepuff spent most of her time cooped up in the library studying as much as she could for her OWLs. Sure, she spent her time with her friends and whatnot, but she also wanted to do well. Marley was found again in the library, studying as much as she...

Felix had already tried to help by signing up to the Brotherhood. Merlin, he'd even tried to speak to Minister of Magic at the careers fair. It wasn't enough though in the grand scheme of things, to make an active difference to the day to day lives of the students around him at school. Felix had...

After hanging out with Callie and Finfin Nia waddled her way to get some snacks and see what was going on. She had really done her best with the costume and was as proud as one can be, but she had to admit walking squeezed between the thin panels, was not the easiest. Perhaps she should have...

Theo had kept his promise to send letters to his younger siblings most of the time when he could. He had missed his younger siblings if he was being honest, but he also liked the experience without them from time to time, even though he felt guilty for thinking that. But he also couldn't wait...

The one thing that Sophie didn't like about being at Hogwarts was that she had to wake up earlier than she liked to be ready for lessons. She would much rather be asleep than anything than be awake right now for classes. While she didn't mind the actual classes and enjoyed learning, again, she...

Thomas always enjoyed the great outdoors. He tried to avoid the castle when he could, as it was overly crowded and noisy. The boy sat under one of the trees that were scattered across part of the great lawn. It had been a sunny and warm day out and Thomas had been enjoying the quietness of the...

Fiona had been disappointed that she hadn't made it on the team, yet again... It had been her dream to be on the quidditch team for as long as remembered. She enjoyed quidditch a lot and it hadn't been something her older siblings were interested in. Sure Nolan had played with her from time to...

Eliza had always enjoyed her comic books, they were a joy for her to read. The Gryffindor always managed to get the new roll in of comics during the holidays and she was always grateful that her dad had managed to get a hold of them while she was away at school. The Gryffindor grabbed a few of...

Conan wasn't sure how he felt about being back. It felt weird as he knew he wouldn't be returning next year. He knew he had to figure out what he wanted to do once he graduated, but he had no idea if he was being honest. It was around about midday, no classes were happening for a bit and Conan...

Marley was glad to be back at school, she was glad to be seeing her friends again and getting back to the swing of things when it came to classes. She knew that this year was going to be a bit of a challenge. She had OWLs this year, so she knew she had to focus on that this year. But this year...

Declan was unsure about the move at first when his parents told him they were going to be moving to a whole new country. It meant he had to leave everything he knew behind. He had to leave his friends behind. Sure he had his cousins here in New Zealand, but it wasn't really the same. His cousins...
