4th throwdown | Monday

[overexertion]

Classes/Hallways/Outside

[It really had been odd lately. Sousuke and Rin hadn't acted their normal way and it was really affecting Sousuke's mood. Mostly in the 'I'm not motivated to study' way, which showed in the way he just stared at forward, not really paying attention to what was going on.

It also showed outside classes as him wandering around the hallways and outside the castle, not really doing anything and looking like he'd be ready to start a fight or worse (even if he isn't, because he doesn't need more detention or a suspension in his life).

Really, he's not in the greatest of moods and it shows.]

Quidditch pitch; Closed to Adela

[Even if Sousuke was trying to win the Most Grumpiest Person in Hogwarts award, there was someone he wanted to talk to and apologize... maybe even explain the same thing he had for Rin, even if that would cause an emotional wreck.

He was waiting for the Hufflepuff practice to end and tried to catch Adela's attention as the team flew down, so that she knew that he wanted to talk with her.]

On the way to Detention

[Speaking of sour moods, Sousuke isn't very happy about this round of detention. Potions is by far his worse subject and having a week full of forced extra classes for it? It really, really sucks. There's nothing wrong with the potions teacher, he's a nice guy, but the potions itself? Just why.

Sousuke is wondering just how much trouble he'd get to if he just didn't show up. Actually, he's very tempted to test it. Worse that could happen was more detention, right? Especially when the people deciding were professors like Sano.

Of course he could be wrong and he'd be on the next plane to Japan. Then again, he's infamous for getting lost so he could always use that as an excuse since he's not thinking straight.

Well, at least he could turn around and take a detour and see what happens...]

Comments

Hallways

[really_sketchy]

Are you alright?

[Namine pauses, almost running into the tall Slytherin boy.]

Sorry... I shouldn't...

[She shouldn't ask those thing so she stops and begins to step away from Sousuke.]

[overexertion]

Huh? No, it's okay. Sorry... I guess I look a bit unapproachable right now.

[He's pretty sure she's seen her around the Quidditch pit before.]

You're Kairi's twin right?

[really_sketchy]

[Naminé nods her head.]

Yes, I sometimes draw the players. You're on the Slythern team.

[Though she doesn't remember his name.]

[overexertion]

Yeah... I'm Sousuke.

[He was away for quite a long time, so it's not that surprising.]

As to your question, I'm just having a bad day.

[really_sketchy]

I'm sorry.

[She doesn't know why she's apologizing.]

Do you want to talk about it?

[Naminé isn't sure if she should leave him be or not. She doesn't want to pry.]

Outside

[kisumi_s]

[Kisumi yawned. He hadn't slept very well last night and the day at school made him even more tired. As soon as they got outside of the class, Kisumi decided to go outside to get some fresh air. Then the boy noticed that he wasn't the only one there. Usually seeing Sousuke was one of the greatest things but now it was different. The smile on Kisumi's face disappeared because he remembered the things Rin had told him earlier. He was worried and wanted to hear Sousuke's version of it.]

[overexertion]

[Sousuke notices Kisumi, but at least this time he isn't that against at meeting him. At least someone of his friends would want to approach him.]

Rin told you, didn't he... Don't give me that look.

[kisumi_s]

[After hearing his friend's first words, Kisumi couldn't help but tilt his head.]

What look?

[Kisumi bit his lower lip, then let out a quiet, sad sigh. Suddenly he felt like he didn't want to know.]

Is it.. True?

[overexertion]

That one.

[He points out at the expression with the sad sigh.]

... it's true though.

Team Obvious!

[enchantressofore]

[ Sousuke?

Adela couldn't help staring at him, surprised. Things had been... Well, to her, they felt tense since she'd spoken with him last. She had no idea why Sousuke had snapped when she asked about whether he was okay or not...

She didn't walk away though, instead approaching even as practice finished. She wanted to shower and to put away her gloves but... Well, maybe he'd sorted it out, whatever it is. ]

Hey.

[overexertion]

Hey.

[It's good to see that Adela wasn't completely opposed to meeting with him. At least that meant she wasn't that upset at him like some others were.]

I wanted to apologize for last time. I shouldn't have snapped at you when you were trying to help.

[enchantressofore]

[ Wait he was--

She sighed then, letting a little smile tug at her lips. ]

I don't know what that was about, but yeah. It's fine, now.

Did you end up getting it looked over, by the way?

[overexertion]

Yeah. I was forced to go since... we were caught later by Sano. I don't think he realized you were involved and even if he did, you weren't fighting.

[The guys were still pissed off, Sousuke was still pissed off. It made sense there was a new scene after Adela had left. Unfortunately it had to be Sano who found that.]

The reason I snapped though... that's a slightly longer story. If you have time.

Classes

[controlstheice]

[Aidou had been teaching he subjects he was sure were on the exams that were coming up as he looked around to see who could answer the next questions.]

Mister Sousuke! Can you answer this question please?

[overexertion]

[Sousuke snapped out if his thoughts as his name was called, looking like he had just been tranported into the class.

Oh. Damn it.]

What was the question...?

[controlstheice]

Can you explain in detail what a counter curse is and give an example of how they can be used?

[Everyone was now watching him quietly.]

[overexertion]

It's a counter-spell designated to remove the effects of a curse. You can counter-curse a leg lock, for example.

Hallways

[devilishkaoru]

Hey, you seem to be in a foul mood. Did you and Rin get into a fight or something?

[That was a wild shot in the dark considering, but then again he does share the dorm room with them both.]

[overexertion]

That's part of it.

[Sousuke had already had his talk with Adela and he now had a parchment with him that he was about to deliver.]

[devilishkaoru]

Well I don't need to want to ask about the part of it, but you do know how much darker it's getting in the dorm room and it's troublesome.

[For him because he liked to work in there for the most part.]

So is it something that can be fixed with knocking your heads together?

[overexertion]

... yeah, sorry about that.

[The times when Sousuke and Rin being in the same dorm room wasn't such a good idea after all.]

I'm not sure. It might be a little more complicated than that.

On way to detention

[iscursednomore]

[Fai had already gone to step out, having to grab a few things for potions of course when he spotted the face he had been seeing in his potions classes. Sano had said something about someone taking extra lessons as detention.]

Hello there.

[overexertion]

[... and there went that plan. Sousuke sighed.]

Hello, Professor. Am I here at the right time?

[iscursednomore]

A little late, but I was about to head off to find you.

[Well not so much if he had found him along the way the better.]

However this potion lesson will be done outside anyway as we gather potion ingredients. It's a good way of remember what they look like originally and what they are used for.

[overexertion]

[Ingredients gathering? Well that didn't sound so bad. Sano usually assigned candelabras so physical things were normal and easy to do.]

Sounds simple enough.
