It was the weekend, and Addison decided to go somewhere to clear her head so she could get back to doing her homework. She didn't really have any idea where to go, but just wander around the castle grounds. The weather was quite pleasant for a walk, but it was already autumn and she couldn't go...

Juniper had grown accustomed to leaving her family behind every year for school now, it was less dreadful than it had been her first few years. She'd been so terrified at first of coming to school and leaving mum and mama behind with her siblings, of being all on her own. It'd eaten her alive...

June hadn't entirely meant to get this close to the forest. But she had been walking around the school grounds to get her bearings when the shadows suddenly got longer and she realized where exactly she was. She had lost count how many times she and all her other classmates had been warned away...

Yvonne was buzzing as she made her way up the short walk to the cottage she had bought years ago. It still felt so strange to call it home but it was one of the only places she truly felt like herself and totally at peace. The last few times she had gone back to New Orleans to visit her family...

Theodore Westwick had been a parent for nearly twelve years, and he still didn't feel like he knew what he was doing. The twins had been fairly easy babies and toddlers, mostly because they were so similar to how he and Edmund had been. It was familiar, so it wasn't difficult for him. But when...

Nikko felt like a completely different person from who he had been only a year ago. He was married, he had a daughter, and he was unemployed. The last one had been a thorn in his side for the past few months and had made it next to impossible to focus on what was right in front of him. Juliet...

Arachne Westwick had felt unmoored for months, ever since her sister had stopped talking to her. She had filled the silence with her new friends, and in a lot of ways felt more free than she had before, but she did miss Nessie a lot. It was like a part of her was wandering around in the world on...

Arachne Westwick was confused and scared. Never before had she been in a fight with Nessie. Was that what this was? It was the day after Halloween, and she had gone over the exchange with her sister all night, thinking it over until she fell asleep, then dreaming about it too. Her dreams had...

Open after a few replies back and forth between me and Rowan (Nessie), we'll put a note when it's open Arachne had thought the costume wouldn't be too bad, but she had underestimated how hot it got in this fly suit. She glanced over at Nessie, who was wearing their dad's old spider costume...

It was nice to he back at school with her friends. Hazel was sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard with Lucy, just chatting. She was telling her friend about her break, kicking her feet back and forth a little. "So, then I met up with Kyousuke in Obsidian Harbour, and it was just the two of...

Matt was relieved that the sorting ceremony had gone well, as well as the feast that came after. After the end of year feast last year, Matt was worried he might lose control of things. The new batch of first years had seemed interesting, a few familiar names on the list as usual. Matt had been...

Vanity didn't often thank teachers for anything, not even quietly in her own mind, but she had to say she appreciated Professor Alcott-Ward's decision to make Cornelius do his fifth year over again. It was nice to have him in her year and in her classes, even if they only really hung out...

Tyler had only been to Fabian's apartment once, briefly. It had left an impression on him, so it wasn't that difficult to find the place again. Last time, he had only focused on how much Fabian had that he didn't have, how expensive everything seemed and how much he wished he could decorate his...

Odette hadn't felt this nervous since her first game as a Macaws beater, but just like back then, she had to push through and do what she had to do. She put one foot in front of the other, taking each step deliberately with her hands stuffed in her pockets and her hood over her face. She...

Tyler had reconsidered this idea at least a hundred times, but here he was in the end anyway. He couldn't believe he was in front of Blake's door, holding a stupidly expensive bottle of wine as if that would fix the friendship he broke when they were boys at Hogwarts. But he couldn't ignore that...

Oskar wasn't sure what possessed him to try and make an appearance at the Valentine's day dance after the Yule ball had been a bit of a disaster. He had been able to make things right in the end even if it wasn't his best moment. But as avoidant as he tended to be he was really trying to give...

Open after Rowan posts. Miro was excited to have his cousins finally attend Hogwarts, not only so he had more friends to hang out with and so he could be the cool older cousin and show them around the castle, but also for the chance to attend all the Hogwarts events with them. Namely, he was...

Lilith felt a little nervous walking through the library, she knew this would be good for her in the long run but what but it still didn't lessen the anxiety of having to actually talk about it to yet another person. Lilith reminded herself that this was the only way she'd learn to navigate...

After the graduation ceremony Eric knew he wanted to congratulate Penelope as a family, he knew it would mean a lot to her and he felt responsible for her. Their dad not being there was a glaring obvious thing, and it infuriated him on her behalf. So the least they could do was be there for her...

Emery had been seized by the fear of losing Raawhiti forever after graduation, as he realized how much easier it woud be for him to slip away after they left the castle. So once the graduation ceremony was over, Emery had left his seat and pushed his way through the row so he could corner...
