Adorah didn't mind chaperoning dances. It was different with Noel by her side, but it allowed her to be more focused on the students rather than her partner. The professor was wearing another design by her sister, some light purple dress robes with ruffles and gems that changed colors within the...

Hudson wasn't very excited about the idea of the Valentine's Dance. He had no interest in anybody like that, and he didn't think he ever would. He would much rather play with his rock collection, but Hudson had been encouraged by his sister to attend the dance. She was convinced that missing any...

To say Sybil had fallen short last year would be an understatement. She wasn't sure if there was anything she hadn't failed. That was why she was more determined than ever to make up for lost time. Part of her wondered if she had been cursed last year to not make a goal, but she had tried and...

January knew she shouldn't be out this late and she'd likely get a good scolding if a prefect or a professor caught her. But the night was prefect and clear, and she just couldn't resist. Her dad had given her one of his old telescopes over the break and she had been trusted to bring it to...

Tessaria started the new school year with a positive mindset, etched into her by her father who thought of nothing but daisies and rainbows, even when faced with a storm. But as Tess found out the news that she, yet again, didn't make it onto the Quidditch team, she didn't have any ounce of...

After the holidays Ramona found herself going with Dominic to the daycare every day. It made sense, he worked there and it was where kids went when their parents were at work. But it was a bit odd when he was supposed to be her dad and also the teacher. She couldn't help but watch the other kids...

Anisha had finally found a quiet moment in between studying to add some things to her scrapbook. It was a hobby of hers she had neglected a little over the years, but with her time at Hogwarts coming to a close, she realized she really wanted to capture the memories here before it was too late...

January had some pretty big feelings about living in New Zealand now. Not that she knew how to talk to her family about it. They all seemed so excited about it, or were pretending just like she was that everything was good. Well except for Junie but she was always painfully honest. She...

Sofia loved the days where all the groups got together to explore a shared topic. Right before the holidays, she had decided to transform their outside play area into a “winter wonderland” with fake snow. The snow wasn’t cold; but it had a similar texture and was still safe to eat in case any of...

The day after the full moon was always the hardest. Miles was exhausted as he dragged himself back to the castle, eyelids heavy with sleep and stomach rumbling for a mountain of food. He had hoped that eating something would help wake him up enough for the day ahead. Unfortunately, it had quite...

Naveen had taken it on himself to turn a corner of the Wild Patch's garden into his own vegetable patch so he could grow his own food. Not that he was displeased with what was served in the great hall but to him there was nothing more satisfying than growing something from a seed that turns into...

Charlotte wasn't quite ready for the school year to end, but at the same time, she was ready to go back home. She hadn't made any real friends like many of her classmates - there was no one she automatically went to after class or to study with. She enjoyed the clubs, but she mostly wanted to...

OOC: for any teachers/prefects, he's not actually in the forest (yet) Ezra Ito had been feeling off lately. The whole mess with Gregory was getting to him. He hated the feeling that he had made his roommate dislike him. He was frustrated with Gregory but also with himself. Ezra didn't feel...

Naveen liked school most of the time. But homesickness was not foreign to him. His sister and his cats helped, but there were still times he wanted to be home more than anything else in the whole world. Usually he would curl up in bed until the feeling passed, but that didn't always work. When...

While they were near the end of the semester, exams were near, and Marley knew she had to focus on them. Marley knew she had joined a lot of different subjects this semester, and while she somewhat might have regretted picking most of the subjects, she also didn't mind it. However, Marley knew...

It was the second semester, and Thomas still had mixed emotions about being at Hogwarts. He had enjoyed the break. He liked spending time with his family. He was reluctant to come back for the second semester. The Hufflepuff hardly made any friends at school, it was hard enough that he wasn't...

It had only been a few weeks since they arrived back at school for the second semester, and Marley was excited to be back at school. While she had enjoyed spending time with her family over the break, she had missed seeing and spending time with her friends. She also missed the Quidditch games...

Todd lay awake that night, staring at the ceiling, his mind racing. Just a few months away from his seventh year at Hogwarts, and what did he have to show for it? When he looked back on his time here, he realised he hadn't really done anything noteworthy or achieved anything significant. It was...

There was a time when Ethan wrote a lot of letters. But they had been to his mom and he had never been sure if she had gotten them. She rarely answered and when she did she never really responded to the things he had told her. It hurt if he thought about her too much but he was usually too busy...

Ethan yawned. Ever since Harlow had arrived she had been keeping the entire house hold on their toes with her crying and unpredictable hours. He hadn't been asked to take care of her but he still found himself offering his services in the morning when Ernie and Olivia looked worse for wear. He...
