Great Hall

[Truth to be told, Sousuke had been expecting visitors from Japan. More than just one, in fact.

There had been going rumors that someone from the Oshitari family would be coming to see his shoulder. This was a guest Sousuke would have gladly accepted anytime and without warnings. Pomfrey had been doing her best, but a little extra help wasn't going to hurt. Though the main fact was that they would be able to break the curse.

The second guest was his father, Kenshiro, who was more than likely coming to Hogwarts without a warning.

Unfortunately, that's the guest Sousuke received on that day. They stood there, in the Great Hall, staring at one another from a distance.

Sousuke really resembled his father a lot. It was almost like looking at a before-and-after age spell shenanigans. Sousuke had almost grown taller than his father, but not quite.]

You're late. Friday the 13th was last week.

[As expected, there was no reaction from the man, other than a displeased frown.]

Sousuke, I've come to pick you up since you've refused to come home by yourself.

What, not going to wait until I get my O.W.L.s out of the way? That's kind of waste.

You will be doing a lot harder tests once we get home. Now go fetch your things.

Or what, you'll curse me again? [Sousuke shook his head.] I'm not going to leave Hogwarts, so you're wasting your time, old man.

[It's about time he left this conversations. He manages to turn around when his father talks once again in a voice firmer than before.]

It's a shame. I suppose I really need to give my opinion about a certain friend of yours to the Auror office. They do listen to my advice rather intently.

[Oh god, he did not just say that. Sousuke turns around fast and almost throws a punch at his father, but instead managed to keep his cool - well, he does look furious.]

Leave him out of this, you bastard!

[They would be here or a while, arguing about this situation. Neither seems to care if they have audience or not.]

Post-war

[Eventually, Kenshiro gets driven off and Sousuke slumps back to his seat at the Slytherin table. Later he can also be found from either a) outside b) at the quidditch pitch or c) at the Slytherin common room. He seems seemingly exhausted over today's stupidity, but at least he's won this fight - for now.]

Great Hall
[Nagisa sat at the Hufflepuff table happily eating away, the nerves that he had from February were long gone now and he had started to feel comfortable again. He was getting back into a pattern when it came to classes and he was at least talking to friends, which was always a good thing. However the moment he spotted a owl flying towards his table and him in particular, he knew right away who it was from and what exactly it was about.

He knew his parents would catch up to him sooner or later.

As the owl dropped the red envelope, he knew right away what it meant and was quick to grab a bowl and simply place it over the thing. But it didn't stop it from still being so damn loud.]

Nagisa Hazuki! How dare you run away from home and all the way to that blasted school! We told you before when we transferred you that it was for your own good. You needed to buck up your ideas and study!

[It had gone quiet for only a moment, but at least enough for the blonde to think that it was over. But it wasn't.]

You best get back home before we come and get you! Or send you sister to fetch you. No and's, if's or but's.

[He paused quietly before going to take a peek under the bowl. Yep it was ripped up. So at least that meant that it was over. So with a sigh of relief he looked around him, giving off a smile.]

Sorry about that everyone. Keep eating and enjoy your day.

Library after the class hours

[Kisumi rubbed his eyes, letting out a loooooong yawn at the same time. He was sitting all alone at one of the tables, trying to focus on his homework. It's been couple of hours since he had started his studying and it still might take a few more. Because the truth was that Kisumi always had to study really hard if he wanted to get good grades and even though he tried not to stress, he was still worried about the upcoming tests.]

School yard couple of hours after the first one

[After he had finally finished his homework, Kisumi realized that he really needed some fresh air so after returning his books to the dorm, he left outside. The fresh air felt good and it managed to ease Kisumi's tired mind. His head felt a bit heavy and the feeling of hunger made him frown. Too bad the lunch time was already over so that wouldn't help him.]

Courtyard

[Well, Zelman hasn't had many chances to relax like this. It's been around a month ever since he started with his punishment of cleaning the armory. Occasional frustration had helped to clean the place faster so he's done. No more.

The vampire was resting in his regular spot, drinking a can of cola and just relaxing. He might not take it well if someone bothers him now of all times.]

Hallways at night

[Now that he doesn't exhaust himself during the day, he can finally return to his normal routine of wandering around at night. As expected, it was the most relaxing thing he could imagine - walking in the empty hallways.

Of course he was being careful of not being seen by any teachers like always.]

overexertion

A: Library

[Sousuke usually takes studying rather seriously, but today he hasn't felt very inspired to do it. So instead he's reading something very, very suspicious (a wizard done hentai manga he got from a friend in Japan that includes a few moving images as well) while covering it as a normal book of Potions (his least favorite subject). He could have gone to his dorm room to read, but since he's got to study at some point to catch up with his studies he might as well hang out here.

It's not like anyone can tell he's not studying if he keeps a poker face.

Though if anyone knows he hates potions it might be weird to see him so interested.]

B: After Quidditch practice, Locker rooms, Late evening

[After Slytherin had finished their Quidditch practice, Sousuke had told others that he would run a few rounds to cool himself off. Of course he was cautious of the hawk danger so he had his wand with him in case of emergency but he really wanted to have some time to himself for a change.

He did his run and returned to the locker rooms, pleased to see that the others had already gone back to the castle (as far as he could see) and sat down on the ground, holding his right shoulder as he does, sighing heavily.

It had been a month since he returned to training. Added with the training he did outside the practice schedule to catch up on the team's level, it was putting a strain on his shoulder again. The pain wasn't that much of a deal, but he could feel it.

Of course he wouldn't be able to be as careful as he needed to. Of course it would start hurting if he did too much practice.

Looks like he needed to skip some training and visit the hospital wing again. What a pain.]

Around

[ Even with all of whatever injury she had getting patched up, Adela still feels pretty tired and somehow still sore from the Quidditch match. Training's going to resume soon though, and she is glad for that victory, but... ]

No, thanks but I'm not interested.

Seriously? How cold can you get, first the dance and now this? Am I just not good enough for you!?

[ Adela's left feeling uncomfortable as yet another guy she doesn't really know walks away in a huff after asking her on a date. It had happened at first because of the dance, but now it's becoming more frequent for a lot of boys outside of her year to try and ask her out. Or 'subtly' mentioned that she looked hot when she was all dolled up back then. It's a bit more attention than she can handle, especially when they started getting mad at her for saying no.

Adela just sighs, making to walk away from the area before someone else can corner her and be pushy at her. Honestly... Dealing with this crap is almost more exhausting than practice. Hell, it's more exhausting than dealing with Zelman. At least she's safe in classes and when she does go to practice, if only because she's doing other stuff then and there's no opportunity to corner her.

Unfortunately, the in-between times are when she's vulnerable to this kind of inquiry, or any other that people might come up to her for whatever reason, whether it's addressing her 'suitors' or any other topic entirely. ]

Closed to Kaoru

[ Aha! Adela, at breakfast, grins as she sees the morning post coming in - and her owl has a package, as well as a letter. She stuffs the letter into her robe pocket for the moment, peeking into the carefully wrapped package before jumping up and, forgoing the rest of her breakfast, goes over to the Slytherin table. ]

I'm borrowing him for a while!

[ Kaoru, apparently, doesn't get a choice in the matter as she grabs his arm and makes to drag him out of the hall, holding the package under her other arm and making sure they're out of hearing range. When she feels they're far enough, and before Kaoru can properly ask once they've stopped, she pushes the package into his arms. ]

There. Those are for you. You are giving those to her, today. I looked at the arrangement, it means romantic interest and admiration, because she is not going to mistake what you mean when you tell her you like her and are interested.

[ She's pretty determined not to let him back out of this either. The sooner he gets it done, the better! ]

Library

[ It's later in the day when she finally opens the letter she's gotten, and seeing the initial part of the message makes her smile, along with a copy of an old photo...

She stares at it, shocked, before turning around to see the copied writing on the back... There's no way.

What?

She shakes her head, frowning and thinking that there has to be an explanation for the weird thing in the photo she's seeing but now that she thinks about it...

Without further thought about it sends a response to that letter (poor Saggia, she'll have to spoil her owl rotten after this), and minutes later she's in the library again, grabbing a pile of books on recent wizarding history and starting from there. If she can find anything that has some knowledge of events in France, or anything else in the area that might give her some clue, some reason why that photo is so strange to her, it might answer a lot!! ]

overexertion

Quidditch Field

[It was time for Sousuke to reclaim his position on the team. All he needed to do was to show one of the beaters and their captain he was superior on the Slytherin practice hours. There wasn't even a competition over it, really. Sousuke had been one of the best beaters they had, after all, before getting injured.

It was really after the competition that the problems started. Badmouthing Rin... didn't suit Sousuke very well. Of course, any violence would get him out of the team before he'd get back in, but no one said anything about a small threat.

... which included almost hitting the guy with his bat, missing him and hitting a bludger that was going for him instead. Either way, it was enough to scare him down.]

That was close.

[Of course he didn't aim for the guy on purpose 0:)]

Infirmary/Hallways

['Perfectly healed'. Yeah right. Sousuke still needed to make visits to the infirmary, but tried to make his visits as unnoticed as possible. At least the staff in the infirmary weren't supposed to rat him out or anything, otherwise he'd even refuse the regular check-ups.]

Dinner in the great hall was not only early, but fairly short. Everyone had to be out of the hall by six so that preparations for the party could be made, and when everyone was allowed back in at the start of the party it had transformed entirely.

The large tables normally used for meals now lined two sides of the great hall, holding a great variety of finger foods, drinks, and desserts that would continuously refill throughout the night. The ceiling above still reflected the night sky, but along its edges and throughout the walls were balloons, ribbons, and flowers of vast variety, with the most numerous of the flowers being white, pink, and red roses. All of of the flowers seemed to be emitting just enough light to effectively illuminate the Great Hall, giving it a - for lack of better term - rosey feel. At one corner near where the staff table normally stood was a group of string instruments, charmed into playing a selection of classical dance music as soon as the first students not involved with set-up stepped into the hall.

That was when Tamaki Suoh, a sixth year student and primary organizer of the dance, appeared at the front of the hall, smiling wide and dressed in an ivory-white tuxedo. He waved his wand briefly before he spoke, his voice magically projected with a charm so that he could be heard above any din that might happen with everyone's arrival.

"Welcome, everyone! I'm pleased to present you with our Hogwarts Valentine's Dance, and I hope you enjoy your time here tonight! Feel free to eat, drink, dance, and be merry in a break from studies and winter cold! Also keep in mind the Dance King and Queen contest, which can be anonymously voted for by you, the students, for the final spotlight dance at midnight tonight, as well as a prize of house points to the winners! Now, let the party begin!"

Prompt 1: Desserts, Drinks, and Wallflowers
Perhaps you're taking a break, enjoying the spread, and watching the other students dancing at various paces in different styles on the floor. Maybe you don't intend to go out onto the floor at all, because the chairs at the sides of the hall are just too comfortable or because you don't want to look like that idiot on the left. You know the one. Either way, congregating at the hors d'oeuvres can be a perfectly acceptable way to pass the night.

Prompt 2: Shut up and Dance
It is a dance party, after all! Grab a partner, whether it's ballroom dancing or just doing your own thing! Granted, the latter might get you some funny looks, but who cares as long as you're having fun? The smell of flowers is quite invigorating, the stars of the enchanted ceiling are above, and there's nothing more important than you and whoever your partner is, whether you know them intimately or have only met them for the first time tonight.

Prompt 3: A Breath of Fresh Air
Maybe the party is a little overwhelming, and you need to step away further from the hall than just sitting near the walls. Although no one is really supposed to leave the dance area for an extended period, who will know if you decide to use the loo as an excuse to get away for a few minutes? Maybe you just want to be somewhere more private, either by yourself or with someone else. Be careful not to get caught though, or it might be detention for you!

Prompt 4: "Love" is in the air?
Uh oh! We have no idea who, but someone seems to have spiked one of the punch bowls with a love potion! This potion is scentless and tasteless, and because the punch bowl is huge (and ever refilling) the effects are, thankfully, greatly weakened in comparison to a normal love potion. This little bit of mischief might result in some of the student body (or even some of the faculty) being a little more openly affectionate than usual with the first person they meet for the night, so a little bit of caution might be necessary. At least it's not at full potency!

Prompt 5: A moment in time that lasts forever!
A professional photographer has been hired to take pictures of students throughout the night! Although it might not be the last memory of the school year, it could be a night you want to cherish forever even if it’s just in a photograph! Is a photo an embarrassing moment or a precious time captured on a special slip of paper?

Prompt 6: Write your own Love Story!
Come up with your own prompts and have a ball AT the ball!

OoC: A note, there will be separate threads for Dance King/Queen contest sign-ups, as well as a contest for best-dressed and an attendance register that will be used to award a door prize drawn by lottery! The prizes are as follows; 50 House Points to 1st place, 25 to 2nd place, and 10 to 3rd place in their respective contests, and a 20 galleon gift receipt for Honeydukes (courtesy of Tamaki pulling some strings with the owner) as a door prize!

There will be a thread below for students to vote on Dance King/Queen, and the best dressed will be decided by members of staff specifically. RNG will be used to determine the door prize. Alright, have fun guys!

A NOTE ABOUT DANCE KING/QUEEN: Although the titles are gendered, who can be entered into each category is not! A boy can be the queen, a girl can be the king, and any combination can happen. The only limitation is that there will be two winners selected from the entrants in the contest!
