AVIE'S DEAD 
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ? Now it's no surprise to anyone to hear that the rock loving Slytherin boy is dead. He was well known to most people in the school, even if not by name but by his rock collection, or his habit of catching the snitch but now Avie Mitchell is known by everyone for his foolishness and idiocy. Who let that boy into Slytherin? He was as dimwitted as any Hufflepuff, and I for one was looking forward to him being out of the Common Room; luckily I was granted my wish early. I would be lying if I said I was alone with that feeling; plenty others shared my opinion and it's safe to say that Slytherin is a great House again. But on the note of talking safety - don't head down to the Lake anytime soon, in case a ghost appears asking you to get that shiny rock at the bottom. Unless you're in Hufflepuff, then please, follow suit (including twin sisters). TWO SNAKES IN THE GRASS 
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ? All the pupils at Hogwarts NZ were shocked to learn of Avie's death in the lake recently, given his notoriety amongst the student body. Those of us who knew him adored his honest behaviour, or at least, I am assured by those one who did know him. His Quidditch antics were unmatched, even by the well-loved James Adams, and his friends adored him. Or did they? Sources from his year suggest that he had two particularly close friends: Esmé Lancaster and Lucien Snow. But were they pretending? Envy of his Quidditch skills is great, and some feel that perhaps Esme felt overshadowed when she played, her meagre talent far surpassed by his seeming knowledge of where the snitch would be; a Muggleborn friend of mine once told me that Avie used an aim-bot (whatever that even is). From the first time she saw him play, Esme clearly loathed his skill, and aimed to hurt him for it. But how exactly could she do it without alerting the professors? Teaming up with her partner-in-crime, Lucien, they set about befriending him, distracting him with talk of rocks and encouraging some reckless behaviour. Many years later, they seized an opportunity - Avie had been made an offer by a professional Quidditch team. This was the moment he had been waiting for, and he rushed at once to his two friends to relate the tale. Esme, however, subtly disarmed him by sneaking his wand from his pocket, and then suggested that he visit Lucien by the lake. Lucien, in turn, suggested Avie dive to the bottom and collect some rocks as a gift; without his wand he decided not to use a bubble-headed charm as might be expected, but instead free-dived to the bottom. Lucien was confident he would never make it back, but when he saw Avie making his way back up for air, he cursed before casting a barrier preventing him from surfacing. Laughing as his 'friend' floundered, Lucien watched him die, before calling the professors to attend the scene. As a crowd gathered, Esme returned to gloat over Avie's dead body, blending in with the other students, a self-satisfied mood upon her. GIRL GOT THE GIRL 
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ? Olivia Havelock and Madeline Walden were spotted locking lips at the Valentine's Day dance. The kiss would not be newsworthy itself if it were not for the fact that Madeline was supposedly at the dance with her boyfriend, Felix Urie. Felix is either going blind, or he just doesn't care about Madeline Walden and her parade of infidelity this year because he only has eyes for another little Gryffindor girl with whom he spends all of his free time. This is not the first time that Madeline has made out with someone other than her supposed boyfriend. James Cade is known to be very cozy with Madeline. Rumor has it they sneak away to an abandoned classroom every now and again for some alone time. Felix Urie really should cut her loose before she winds up sixteen and pregnant with someone else's baby. We all know he can do better than someone like Madeline Walden anyway. A LOVE HEXAGON 
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ? See if you can keep up with this one. So, last year Lydia Archer, who's a total bore, and Felix Warrick were a thing, but that apparently didn't last very long because this year Gabriel Fletcher and Lydia are spending tons of time together. Little ol' Felix was so upset that he and Gabriel even got into a fist fight over her. Really, what do guys see in her?! To get back at Lydia...and Gabriel too, I'm sure, Felix tried to start a thing with Saveli Matveev. He even kissed her, but he must not be that good at it because she totally turned him down and we know that Saveli doesn't turn down anyone. So then, Felix set his sights on Alana Finch at the Valentine's dance, but that didn't work out for him either! Apparently, her boyfriend who definitely isn't her fiance showed up and ruined Felix's fun. Felix, I'll help you out because you definitely need it. If anyone, and he really will date anyone, is interested, Felix can probably be found moping around the Ravenclaw table or Lydia. And, if someone can tell me what's so great about Lydia, I'd love to hear it. </COLOR></FONT> |
TWO ALMOST GRAVES
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ?
Even though the Headmistress would have you believe that the school is a safe place, we all know that isnt true (read the Avie article above if youve been living under a rock!). But, I bet you havent heard this one. Did you know that shes hiding the fact that Professor Woodlock and Professor Kingsley almost killed two students? Its true. Professor Woodlock was spotted using a hover charm to escort two first years from the greenhouse to the hospital wing. Later on, he and Professor Kingsley were spotted whispering in the hospital wing as they sat over the two students, probably coming up with their alibi. Did I mention that one of the victims was Lucas, Professor Woodlocks own cousin?! I guess theres some family drama there. But, why was this kept a secret from all of us? Did the first years catch the professors in the middle of a secret ahem- meeting? I bet they were victims of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sounds like Headmistress King needs to pay closer attention to what's happening in her school...or retire.
A SNAKE IN THE MINISTRY
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ?
Did anyone notice a certain first year Slytherin by the name of Noah Kingsley this year? Oh, you didn't? Really? That's funny because we didn't either. He is proving to be as unmemorable and unintelligent as our current Minister for Magic who just happens to be Noah's father. Seriously, we are counting down the days until Minister Kingsley gets the boot. Surely Professor Kingsley, the Head of Gryffindor, was shocked to find her precious itty bitty boy stuck in the Slytherin house. Or perhaps she didn't want Noah in her house. She didn't want to overshadow him with her inadequate leadership. She's made quite a few mistakes this year alone, and she can't even control her own niece and nephew. Professor Styx runs a much tighter ship. Little Kingsley has done nothing this year to show us that he is any different than his extremely incompetent, know-nothing parents.
THREE WAY WITH SNOW
H A V E Y O U H E A R D ?
Unless you are in the House that claims they are chivalrous, you would have missed out on the break up of a couple that everyone knew was happening; and it was finally bought to light. Jean Snow broke up with - no not Victoire (well yes, but we'll get to her later), but Archie Renner. It was in the middle of Common Room, my sources say, right in front of everyone. Who knows, maybe it was a publicity stunt? A reenactment of how Snow's and Fontaine's break up went? Jean is on a roll, breaking two hearts in one semester. Perhaps it was because of Renner that the two Head people broke up, or perhaps it's just because Snow is incredibly average - if no one has told you that kid, now you know. There's literally nothing special about you, no matter what your boy-toy says. And Archie? Did something happen to you? There's no way your face is supposed to look like that. Good merlin, 'this place has gone to the dogs'.

[li]Warning. Evelyn Manning desperate for attention. She will take any kind from anyone. But approach with caution; Manning is to be fed make-up, so she can be pretty on the inside.
[li]Oh, did you guys hear? We have a forest animal running around the school. And I don't mean a werewolf (which we have in the school, so look out!), but Fawn Burrow. Not only do her manners suck, but she even smells like she was just rolling in dirt. Talk about taking the term mudblood to a whole new level.
[li]Silus Hollister threw a dinner roll at a poor firstie that gave him a pink rose. Silus, you should have been thanking her for what was so obviously a mistake since we know no one likes you enough to send you a rose unless it was just as a joke.
[li]Throwback to the whole Snow and Fontaine thing, during Valentine's dance, everyone saw the babies of the siblings snogging. Oh Lucien, Jean and Victoire, what will you do about your tiny people?
<LI>[li]Still talking about rose deliveries, did anyone notice Cole Ignatius running away from people trying to deliver roses? Talk about weird. What is your issue, dude? Maybe he has some strange fear of roses.[/li][/ul]
