  1. Raafe Khatri

    Old School Week Hidden Treasures

    Raafe had heard a rumour that there used to be a something special hidden on the Seventh floor and it'd piqued his interest. So far all he'd found was an old armoire, though he was eagerly investigating it, trying to wedge open the stubbornly stuck drawer with little success so far.
  2. Theodore Westwick

    Old School Week Independent Little Steps

    Zoe was usually the one dropping off the twins at daycare, but today Theodore had done it. It was a strange experience, seeing his little girls step into the classroom hand in hand without even looking back. It made him think of when they were babies, it was really going by fast. He wondered if...
  3. June Davenport

    Old School Week That's Mine

    June had the Daily Prophet before her as she enjoyed her breakfast. Trying to see what the news was from today. Sometimes she counted the days when her father would get out. Wanting to see any sign of it. She could not wait to look him in the eye and hear his voice. Tell him in person what she...
  4. Grace Holland

    Old School Week Advice From a Book

    As far as timing went, Grace's pregnancy was oddly perfect. She had just discovered she was pregnant and knew the baby would be born by the time she would have to give flying classes again. But it was still terrifying. She had found some pregnancy books in the library and was leafing through one...
  5. Matt Alcott-Ward

    Old School Week Quick Snooze

    The library was one of Matt's favorite places at Hogwarts, he was still a Ravenclaw at heart. He had spent some time looking through books, reading in a comfortable chair in the library. He rested his eyes for just a moment. It was nothing, really. He wasn't falling asleep.
  6. Liam Waldgrave

    Old School Week Flying Newspapers

    Liam had an day off and it seemed like an nice day so he decided to go outside, his appartment wasn't far from here and he liked the busy streets. Especially running into girls. So as he smiled making some eyecontact with girls passing he figured being close to Gladrags was the place to be...
  7. Branson Archer

    Old School Week Tidying Up

    Branson hadn't had exams this semester, and though he was revising, he had begun helping his dad out a little in the library. Gathering books and putting them away. His dad had not asked him to do that, but he was. He liked helping out in the library and it gave him something to do.
  8. Eugene Nestor

    Old School Week Busking

    Eugene had brought his guitar with him to a spot in Brightstone. He had set himself up, and just began playing. Playing his newest song and hoping to make a little extra money and draw in a bit of a crowd.
  9. Seamus Reid

    Old School Week Floating

    It was a warm summers day. Most of the kids were at home, and the school was quiet. He had come outside and gotten into the lake, just floating, and swimming, enjoying the refreshing water as a break from the hot stuffy air.
  10. Sophie Wilson

    Old School Week Looking for a Story

    Notebook in hand, Sophie looked around Obsidian Harbour feeling a little disappointed. She had come here to find something to write about for the prophet, but it was almost eerily quiet. She had been vaguely thinking of doing a story on the new business the daycare brought to the area, but she...
  11. Brevity Boone

    Old School Week Exploration

    Brevity had been at the school six months and with most people gone, she thought now was the best time for her to explore the forest. It couldn't be nearly as dangerous as the professors all claimed it to be.
  12. Rosie Archer

    Old School Week Looking at Wild Flowers

    Rosie was supposed to be going to Obsidian harbour for a reason, but it was summer, and the flowers were all too beautiful. Rosie was stopping at each one on the path into Obsidian, smelling them, taking pictures and just enjoying them.
  13. Emmanuel Okoye

    Old School Week Post-Exam Reading

    With his last exam done, Emmanuel had grabbed his favourite book and come to the library. he found a quiet spot near the back of the library, away from most others and settled down with a book. Looking forward to getting some alone reading time.

    Old School Week Oopsie-Daisy: Class 3

    Helios had been worried to come to day care, but his sister ran the club, and it gave him something to do. but, this was his first day and everyone had been doing some painting when he had knocked over his cup of dirty water all over the table. He froze in his spot, worried that he'd get kicked out.
  15. Amber Chou Wilson

    Old School Week Ice Cream Break

    Amber was on her break from Gladrags and had decided to treat herself to some ice cream. She was eating the strawberry cone as she looked over at the harbor, enjoying the nice weather.

    Lookin at his end of semester grades made Cornelius want to bite something. He tried, but none fo the study charts he had made helped at all. And ndow his parents were gonna see his grades and know he was a FAILURE. He couldnt live up to the family heritage. He hadnt opened the letter from home...

    OSW Bingo!

    HAPPY OSW EVERYONE! While @Professor Elvera Le Fey was staying with me (and we were getting SUPER HYPE for OSW) we reread a few old OSW (and just plain old) threads and started thinking up entries for an OSW bingo card. They're taken from fond memories of back in the old days, as well as things...
