They had a table set up outside the Accio! room with the yearbooks piled on it for students to collect. Kas was dutifully manning said table, chin in his hand and occasionally using his wand to flick a yearbook or two towards anyone taking too long to come grab it. He'd already flipped through all the important pages, but Kas still had his open in front of him as well, occasionally turning a page to admire all their hard work. He'd never say it out loud, probably, still holding onto the fact that he only joined the yearbook to laugh at other people's photos, but he did enjoy the work, and the book they managed to put together each year.

Ajaccio was feeling pretty good with how the semester was ending. The boy had been working very hard on getting accio finished, and he had left Kasim in charge of setting up the stall and was just carrying out the last box of yearbooks that were ready to go. He felt that he'd managed pretty well, it had been hard and he knew now more than ever why the last leader had been so stressed. It was a huge task to do and though it was only once a year the amount of work that needed to go into it was pretty huge. He gave a smile. "It looks really good this year," he commented with a little smile to Kasim as he took the last few out and placed them on the table. He would probably spend most of his day here handing them out, he knew if there were questions to answer he could do that.
 
Blake had always kind of liked the yearbook, enjoyed looking back on the time that had passed (especially seeing the Quidditch trophy next to his name, or his own face on the list of duel winners. But this one felt especially special. This was his final year, his last memories of his classmates before they moved on to whatever life had in store next. He was quick to grab a copy, flicking through the pages as he walked away. A small smile flickered across his face as he saw he and Lars had wound up neighbours on the graduates page, and the smile broadened slightly as he passed the Quidditch and Duelling pages. His eyes shot wide though, as he reached the superlatives. Best Quidditch Player. He knew people in the school knew he was good, but had long accepted he was too unpopular to get votes for that particular category. But there it was, despite his spectacular failure against Ilvermorny. And just below it... Blake touched the page for a moment, almost not believing it. Most changed since first year. Blake certainly thought it was true, but again, he had always thought his past misdeeds were too awful to deserve a second chance in most people's eyes. He leaned quietly against the wall and blinked a few times, trying not to let himself cry where he could be seen. That plan went out the window though, as he turned the page. First to get married. Best couple. Blake had known, somewhere in his heart for a very long time that he wasn't worthy of being liked. Everything he did to prove himself, to make himself seen, all of it was a desperate struggle to be worth liking, to be worth the love his parents no longer had for him. But this... for the entire school to decide he and Lars were the best couple... it hit Blake right in the heart and he hunched over slightly, covering his mouth with one hand as he stared down at the pictures. There was love, here. There was acceptance. Things he had long since stopped expecting. He blinked a few times to try and get himself under control, staring quietly at the page as he processed its contents.
 
Minnie didn't put much stock into the yearbook and the superlatives, but since she knew she worked hard and she knew that she'd been nominated for a few things, including on of the couple categories with Eric she felt rather keen to at least find out. She arrived at the entrance hall and spotted a few people she knew, Ajax and Blake from quidditch and the other boy she was sure was a friend or someone who was close to Eric. She took one of the yearbooks, giving Ajax and the other boy a smile before moving and beginning to flick through it. She skipped the prefect pages and went to the quidditch pages, to the yuleball and valetines pages smiling fondly at the couple picture of her and Eric, then she moved to the supers, spotted the couple picture first and she had to stop herself from giggling at what they'd won, had people not realised they were a couple. She only had to flick a little to spot her face next to ravenclaw one which felt a little....well, it stung a little. But she smiled, she would definitely hold on to this and wondered if she'd need to be the one to show it to eric.
 
Liusaidh had been very disappointed when she'd nominated and voted in the supers, especially because her category had been slashed. She had liked it though perhaps other professors who were lame and boring told them to take it out. She went to where she could get a yearbook and grabbed one, "Ye's shoulda kept in most likely tae get killed by styx," she said in a cheerful tone. Giggling slightly as she then turned to walk away. She didn't want to linger but as she walked she turned to the important pages and wasn't too surprised to see her name next to class clown, she didn't think she was but she'd taking winning something over nothing.
 
Eugene had thought the yearbook was so cool. He had seen the room when he'd taken Crystal to go see the ravenclaw in charge and he had enjoyed looking at the cameras and pictures in that room. He thought it was so cool. So he was especially eager when it got released to be able to go and look at it, see the finished product, see his own face, take it home with him to show his cousin. Something that would prove how real this all was. He smiled as he approached the table, "Kia Ora boys, thanks so much," he said grabbing one and then turning to be able to move out the way and flick through it. If there was an opportunity to join the team he knew he would need to try for it.
 
Ronald saw that table at the Accio area this was the yearbook of this year he so happy that all of the events are captured in this yearbook but the end of the book was the recognition of me the top one-earner points for this year also, that was so awesome to see me in every event and organization that I join and with the picture of my boyfriend and me at the yule ball and valentine dance was so great, Ronald take his copy and deliver it to my parents at the Philippines and to said to them that I'm enjoying at Hogwarts New Zealand school and have a memorable image for this yearbook.
 
Bern was so curious about what it's happening at the entrance hall many students grab the book, That the yearbook for this year Bern get his copy and happy that he sees his face in the yearbook but in every event he so the soloist so he wishes the next year that he came back to Hogwarts he will have a partner on every event, they see his cousin pictures also and see his fave at the 1st top earner points in this year, Bern was so happy for this yearbook and have a collection for every year he wants to collect their all of his yearbook when he is finally graduated at Hogwarts New Zealand.
 
Lysander had never really cared about the yearbooks. He'd thumb through to spot all his friends, or draw curly moustaches and horns on Professor Styx's photos, but other than that, it was mostly his parents asking about them. It was no different this year. Lysander didn't know why his dad didn't just come down to the clubroom himself to grab a copy. It was that man's shelf it'd collect dust on at the end of the day. The Gryffindor wandered down to the Entrance Hall, his face lighting up at the sight of two of his friends manning the table. Kasim looking perpetually bored, as always. He sauntered up behind the two and put his arms around them. "Kas, Ajax! Two of my favourite people." He grinned. "How do I look this year?" He asked. He plucked one of the yearbooks up to flip through while he wandered back to the side of the table to lean against it. He tilted it as he checked out the moving pictures, and gave an approving nod. "Compliments to the photographer." He chuckled. It was great having a friend like Ajax who he could trust not to make him look awful in a picture. There was something funny about seeing Nicole and Connor side by side, and he almost expected their photographs to start arguing with each other. He flipped through, purposefully moving past the duelling section to avoid Juniper's smug face, until he'd come across the superlatives. He burst into laughter. "Most likely to get eaten by an eel!" He read aloud. "If it happens, I want it written on my gravestone. The people have to know what I died for." There were worse categories to be voted for, and he would be lying if he said he was surprised. It wasn't far from the truth at all, though he had to hope he'd somehow manage to befriend the shy lake creature before he was devoured by it. He'd been lucky so far.​

Kas glanced up with Ajax joined him with the last few yearbooks, nodding vaguely. The yearbook looked good every year, but Kas wasn't going to get too excited about it. "It's nice to have the superlatives back," he said mildly, raising an eyebrow at Liusaidh Fergusson as she collected hers. It was honestly a miracle her head of house hadn't already killed her, honestly.

He snorted when Lysander arrived to finally see his brand new title, shaking his head fondly. "Finally, a suitable title for you, huh. We can let everyone know you died how lived, in over your head," he said, moving a hand over his shoulder to vaguely pat at Lysander and mostly succeeding in tapping his face. @Ajaccio Skey @Lysander Summers
 
Elliot grabbed his yearbook with a quick thank you to the Accio team at the table. It was weird to think this was the last one he'd ever get, and Elliot wasn't sure if he wanted to open it just yet. He'd slipped past Blake looking at it earlier though and curiosity had gotten the best of him anyway, so Elliot flipped it open, trying to be careful where he was walking as he looked over the pages. He smiled at the images of the Hufflepuff team and the Wild Patch and even managed to not get too embarrassed to see his speech already printed near the end. The superlatives weren't too much of a surprise, both Lily and Selene's were well deserved in his opinions (and possibly Tyler's too). He'd have to make sure Lily saw it. His own win was a surprise, and Elliot shook his head with a snort. That was never happening. Seeing Blake and Lars as best couple still made Elliot's stomach clench uncomfortably, but in the interests of peace keeping, he'd keep that opinion to himself. He shut the yearbook as he came to the stairs, hoping he could find Lily before dinner and show her.
 
Harper had never really understood the appeal of yearbooks back when she was in primary. What was the point when there was social media capturing every important moment? But she'd come to appreciate them after arriving at Hogwarts, mostly because they were one of the few sources of photos of her and her friends. And she had to admit, the moving photos came out a lot nicer than the ones she captured with her muggle disposable cameras.

She took a yearbook from the table, thanking the Accio! member behind it, before flicking through the pages to find the superlatives section. Harper had nominated most of her friends for at least one category, and she wanted to see how many of them had won. Seeing Em's picture next to "Most Academically Driven" made her smile, and she laughed lightly when she saw that Hilda had won "Most likely to go into the Forbidden Forest." It had been a while since Harper herself had entered the forest; maybe she should ask Hilda to accompany her.

Harper continued to flip through the pages before stopping, her eyes wide. There, under "Inseparable Friends" was a photo of her and Sky. She hadn't thought much of the nomination at the time, figuring one of her roommates had submitted it, but actually winning the category was a major surprise. Of course, the superlative ultimately had no bearing on her friendship with Sky; Harper knew they would be best friends no matter what. Warmth flooded through her as she closed the book, grinning. She needed to find her friends.
 
Sully was pretty keen to get his yearbook this year. Not just because he wanted to see if there were any shots of him and Chloë with their flamingos at the dance, but also because he'd been nominated for a few superlatives and Sully wanted to know if he'd won anything.

He snagged his book off the table, giving Lysander a quick grin where he was talking to the Accio kids and hurriedly flipping through the pages. "Aw yes, most popular right here!" He called out with a grin, checking around to see if anyone else was paying attention. He'd seen Blake further down the hallway though and hurried over to him to give him a companionable shove for winning Best Quidditch player, among other things. "So I'm invited to the wedding, right?" He said with a grin, waggling his yearbook at Blake as he passed. @Blake Irons
