Y48 S1 CAC and Wild Patch Club Meeting - Flower Pressing

[Lucy Montague]

Lucy had thought it was a neat idea when she'd been approached by Zerrin and Ruto. It was always fun to try new things, and flower pressing wasn't something Lucy had ever tried before. She just hoped everyone else would agree. Standing at the front of the room, she waited for people to arrive. The room was set up with tables and chairs, flowers picked from the Hogwarts gardens themselves littering the centre of the tables. There were all sorts - many Lucy didn't even know the names of. Memory boards were also set up, along with other utilities for pressing flowers. A mix of floral scents filled the room, and Lucy became a little bit worried about anyone with allergies.

As people took their seats, Lucy began addressing the room. "Hello, and welcome to this semester's Conglomerated Arts Club and Wild Patch Club meeting! As you can see, there are flowers abound and soon Zerrin and Ruto will explain how to do all of this because I don't really know," Lucy admitted a little sheepishly. "But basically we're going to be pressing flowers! If you've never done that before, that's okay, because it's all about learning and trying new things! Anyway, that's enough from me, let's hear from our Wild Patch Club leaders, Zerrin Fergusson and Ruto Vernier-Raison!" Lucy started clapping, stepping to the side and letting whoever wanted to go first speak first.

Out of Character:

Welcome to this semester's joint club meeting! Please wait for both Zerrin Fergusson and Ruto Vernier-Raison to post before responding to the thread.

 

[Zerrin Fergusson]

Zerrin needed all the help he could get, and he knew it. He'd talked it over with Ruto, approached Lucy, and with a bit of work they'd gotten it all put together. Now, he was tired but nervously excited. A little part of him wanted Eloi to be here, but that was sadly not an option. He'd asked Fraser to get some pictures, partly for the paper and partly so he could send some pictures, but he wasn't totally sure Fray would have time for it.

Still, he was here. He stood with the other leaders, smiling at everyone. "Hi guys! Thanks for the great intro, Lucy," He flashed her his best winning smile. "Thank you all for joining us! We have some simple instructions printed and placed at each table to help you guys follow along. Just have a good time- make yourself memory boxes, take them with you, give them to friends, pair up or do it alone. Just have fun with it!" He looked to Ruto, seeing if she had anything to add. Once they'd all spoken, he clapped his hands. "Alright everyone! Have fun!"
