continued from here Lucas smiled shyly as he danced with Connor, feeling a little flustered by all this. He kept reminding himself he was being silly, that Connor was just his friend. But the romantic atmosphere at the dance was messing with his head. He could almost believe Connor was flirting...

Lars was feeling very mixed about tonight. On the one hand, he was excited to spend the evening with Blake, dancing, and laughing, eating snacks. But on the other hand, he couldn't make himself forget even for a second that this would be his final dance at Hogwarts. Graduation was coming up...

continued from this As Tristan woke slowly from his sleep, his first thought was that he hadn't felt this comfortable in his bed in a long time. There was something he couldn't quite place, something familiar, something comforting. Some part of Tristan's brain was aware that he didn't want to...

Iris had taken a lot of time over the break to think about what had happened last year. She missed the friend group she used to have, with Connor, Poppy, Emma, Nicole and herself all in it. She knew now that Nicole was stubborn enough to keep this feud going, but had realized over break that it...

Open after Rowan posts with Manaia Te Rangi Louis had enjoyed going home over break, but he was happy to be back too. He had gotten himself a new ball over break and was kicking it around on the lawn. He missed playing football with his friends at home and hoped to play with a few other kids...

Open After Rowan Bea sat with the flowers she had picked spread out in front of her. She had picked them secretly, hoping no one was watching, because she had a feeling that she wasn't actually supposed to be picking the flowers, but they looked so pretty and she just wanted to have some next...

Jasper had been terrified to ask Nell to the ball, but he'd done it and now he was glad. Though he was also still mildly terrified. Things between them had been strange lately, and he wondered if Nell had picked up on it as well. Jasper had to admit to himself he liked Nell as more than a...

Lucas was feeling sad about Hufflepuff losing their previous game, but was still a bit hopeful about them at least beating Gryffindor. It was perhaps a bit of a long shot, but Elliot was definitely a better seeker than Flynn was. Lucas had been practicing in his free time as well, in case he...

It was an unusually nice spring day, so naturally, Harper had decided to spend it outside. She'd brought her football with her, but she didn't plan to do any serious training this afternoon. Her muscles were still sore from the drills she'd done the day before. Today, Harper just planned on...

Ever since the sort-of-breakup with Lily, Jasper had wanted to talk to Nell again. But at the same time, he didn't really want to talk about relationship things with Nell anymore because the last time it had been... weird. Still, he'd found himself missing her company and longing to just hang...

Eric had been in a bad mood lately, and that usually meant he wasn't paying a lot of attention to anything else. But after he'd picked up an abandoned copy of the school paper and had spotted his name in it, he'd realized there was something going on he hadn't paid any attention to. He'd been...

Jasper was confused, pretty much constantly these days. He was trying his best to focus on other things than girls, but both Lily and Nell popped up in his head almost constantly. He'd kissed them both and he'd been at the dances with them as well. Did he like one of them? Both? Neither? Jasper...

After the latest potions class, Ivy immediately wanted to read up on the information they'd need for next week. She was not doing as well in her classes as she wanted, even if she had perfect grades. Ivy just wanted to... stand out and impress her teachers, but somehow it was difficult to do so...

Lars had been trying to keep himself busy to distract himself from his thoughts about Blake, and mostly their argument. It had made him feel nervous, an anxiety that seemed impossible to shake. How could something feel so right, and at the same time feel bad? He loved being with Blake, and often...

Alice was a bit nervous about having Elliot over, but she was excited as well. As tiring as her family sometimes was, she really did love them and wanted them to meet Elliot. The boy had been a bit nervous about it all, probably both because of her mother and her sister Diana, but she hoped that...

Drinking the felix felicis had Knox feeling renewed and energetic, and as if anything and everything he wanted to happen would happen if he willed it to. As if he were invincible and powerful and he could materialize his wildest dreams just by thinking about them and wishing for them to appear...

Lars felt exhausted, absolutely exhausted. He wanted to go hide underneath his blankets in bed, but didn't actually want to face anyone in Ravenclaw tower. He felt responsible for their loss, after Minnie had been taken off the field he should have inspired everyone. Instead, he just watched as...

Michael was hoping that this new school would be a similar layout as his previous one in Scotland, but there were quite a few differences. He could easily find his dorm, but he was having trouble keeping track of where his classes would be as well as all the clubs they seemed to have here. He...

Open after Rowan posts with Connor It had been a few years now that Alice had been doing these tours. She was pretty sure this would be her third time, after taking over from Kauri Tipene a few years ago. It would also be her last time, which was a little saddening. But she felt extra proud...

When Lars had found the note in his bag, he hadn't been entirely surprised. Leaving Blake alone after the Valentine's Dance had been strange. He'd shared something so personal with him that it felt like they were connected now in some way. He hadn't been sure if Blake had felt the same way, or...
