Morning mail; Hufflepuff table

[The morning mail arrives as usual, bringing everyone their mails. For once, Shiraishi doesn't receive a howler when he accept the mail. Instead it's a letter from the head of the Shiraishi family; his grandfather.

He eagerly reads through the letter, his expression turning bright as he does.

The last few words of the letter even almost bring him to tears. 'I'm sorry I haven't taken action sooner, Kuranosuke. Please, come visit me next time you can so we can talk'.

He hasn't been this happy in a while.]

After breakfast; Closed to Kenya

[Once he's done with reading and eating his breakfast, he hurries off to the Ravenclaw table, the letter in hand and a smile on his face.]

Kenya, come with me.

[While he could announce the news to everyone, he rather wants to talk with his best friend alone, so he makes his way to a more private area... and actually hugging Kenya once they're really alone.]

We did it.

Quidditch Pitch

[Gou had been rather happy since she joined the Ravenclaw team. It was fun, interesting and it helped her figuring a few things out. Sure it had it's negatives when it came to girls being the usual bitches, but that didn't stop her from continuing to do it reguardless. When she was in the air practising, she was on the ground and quietly taking various notes. When the practice was over, she kept her notes close to her chest as she walked over toward each of her team mates with a smile.]

Hello, this might seem a little odd or rude, but I've been taking notes and I thought of a training regime just for you to help improve areas that seem weak. If you don't want to look, I understand but it could also help.

Corridors

[No matter what, Gou couldn't help but notice the girls from before were still trying to get some type of reaction out of her. After the incident with the lake, this seemed to be what they attempt to do. But after rubbing her brows slightly, she took a small breath. She had her limits and hearing them loudly whisper something she took major offense to.]

Alright, that's it. I've been trying to ignore this, but it seems like bullies never take a hint.

[This caused the girls to stop and look over, they seemed ready for a confrontation, but Gou wasn't the type to fight, more stand up for herself when it was needed.]

Look I get it, you like the guys who play Quidditch and some of the guys I know, but instead of bitching and dissing people who are thier friends, actually grow a pair of balls and tell them. If you get rejected because they either have someone already or they like someone else, then at least you know and can move on.

[Gou had her hands on her waist for the moment.]

And what about you? You seem to oogle them all the time, yet you don't say anything.

And that is because I am not ogling the boys themselves. It's thier muscles. I mean come on they are nice biceps considering. [And this was simply enough to confuse the girls why do you ogle something like that?]

Now you know that, can you please stop bullying me because you think I'm going after them. I'm not. I'm not interested in anyone that way, I just appreciate what they do in order to keep the beautiful muscles they do have.

( Prologue )

A) Anywhere

[Two weeks later, Kenya still feels as empty, as moments after his father dissolved their bond. Everything that happened afterwards is a blur, from how the man who had once been his father, staggered away, the once sure step swayed with loss, to Kenya's own dizzy journey back to the dormitory, where he collapsed on the bed. He doesn't know if anybody saw them, or if any of the teachers, or the principal have been notified of this, by his family, or by someone else, but since Oshitari Eishi likes to have his ducks in order, he assumes at least the headmistress would know. There's of course the question of the financial backing as well, the thing that hurts the most, but is the most pressing.

He can be found frequently heading to or from the headmistress' office, either deep in thought, or an expression on his face, that most would describe as "heart breaking". Personally, he just feels empty. Considering how high he usually is on life, people might be worried enough to inquire. There ought to be a rumor mill spinning already as well, which - for once - he doesn't care about.]

B) Dormitory

[When Kenya is tired of nosy people, who can't mind their own business, or friends, who are a treasure, but kill him with their worry, he pulls the curtains of his bed tightly together and hides beneath the covers. His ability to transform himself and fly away is temporarily blocked by the anguish he feels, so that's not an option. He always imagined freedom to feel different, but maybe someone needs to show him that it can be a good thing? Every cloud, no matter how dark, has a silver lining, after all.]

The excitement in the air is sizzling, with the Quidditch match about to happen.

Today's match is a between two rivals, not only in competition, but their very ideology: The cunning Ravenclaw against the diligent Hufflepuff. Usually both friendly and tolerant, now they stand on the opposite sides of the court. Whose method will prove the more effective one? Let's find out!

Flying your house colours? Figured out who you're going to support?

It's time to head out to the pitch and settle things.

[OoC: There will be threads for pre, during, and post game activities. In other words, pregame your character could be in the dressing room or at breakfast, during you could play out a game thread or be in the stands, post you could be celebrating or moping, depending on how things went]

( And the winner is... )

( Long post )

Hospital Wing

[As luck would have it, Shiraishi's father was stopped from taking his son away. Unfortunately there was no quick way of repairing his legs so he was forced to stay in the hospital wing. Which was fine with him, since at least he was still at Hogwarts. Miserable, but still there.]

(ooc: after this event things will start looking better for him, I promise.)

one_step_ahead

Great Hall, breakfast

[That morning at the Ravenclaw table is... well, Kenya would say awkward, but he's probably the only one to feel that way, with how animatedly everyone seems to be chatting. And everyone talks about last night. EVERYONE. He hears his own name several times, which makes him feel like crying. Not that he's a crybaby, but this? It's a MESS. Not to mention Matsuoka walked into the Great Hall a couple of minutes ago looking ready to kill someone (presumably Kenya), which almost made him wet his pants. But then the Slytherin captain stumbled to his own table and Kenya realized the redhead was just sick. The part of him that was pretty much a healer in training felt bad for the Slytherin, the rest of him just moaned in pain. He's so dead.]

Rest of the Day

[The rest of the day doesn't feel less awkward and tortuous than the morning. The talk has managed to spread outside of Ravenclaw borders and whenever he passes people, they look at him, either with pity, or a snicker. It doesn't help that it's Sunday and there are no lessons to distract himself with and each time he runs into Gareki, he has to turn the other way and flee, because he's that sure he's about to get killed. He has no idea how he'll survive the night. Maybe he should build himself a nest atop the tower, sleep there. Alone. Waiting for Matsuoka to find him and do it. Slowly. Piece by agonizing piece.

The worst thing is there's nowhere to hide. Library is out of the question, at this time occupied mostly by Ravenclaws, it's a beautiful day, so everyone's at the lake, or somewhere outside, and even the pitch had been occupied. He's tempted to go and hide in the dungeons, go practice some potions, or just fly to the astronomy tower and sit there all day and night. Maybe it will be gone by tomorrow, he thinks miserably, but he knows it's a feeble hope. He should just write his will and quietly wait for the gallows.]

Quidditch Pitch
[Hinata was sitting in the stands watching everyone practice to begin with. He couldn't help but be amazed at how they trained at this school. It was so different than what he had been use to back home. The storms, the aeroplanes he had to avoid for the most part, most of the time quite narrowly. It was always tough training at his old school, but seeing none of that here... His eyes widen and his mouth shaped to an o. He was interested. perhaps a little too fascinated considering he might not necessarily be watching the house he is in practice.

When it was Hufflepuffs practicing, Hinata can be found on the field, broom in hand and a wide grin on his face. He was honestly looking forward to it.]

backtobasics

Outside

[During the summer, Shiraishi was able to transform fully into his animagi form. Since he also registered himself with the help of the headmistress, he's very much allowed to wonder outside in said form... which is what he does when it's getting cold and a fur is a much better way to store some warmth.

Shiraishi is a Fennex Fox and his left front leg has white stripes that stand out, like his bandages normally do. He's usually relaxing somewhere, finding comfort in sleeping in piles of leaves... but he can sometimes be playful and chase something like a snitch if he feels like it.

Just some carefree life every once in a while.]

Hallways

[What he probably isn't meant to be doing with his animagi form is trying to sneak into houses that aren't his, namely Ravenclaw or Slytherin, but since he has a chance like this, why not? It would be fun to sleep in the same bed with either Niou or Kenya, even if he'd have to stay as a fox all night.

Of course he's not that small so it's still a bit challenging... but he's feeling adventurous.]

backtobasics

Great Hall / Hufflepuff table

[It's probably not that weird anymore that Hogwarts gets a visitor from Japan. This time there isn't a commotion in the Great Hall because of it, at least. No, this time the visitors quietly wait for their escort and greet anyone who comes close politely.

What is different is that there's someone hiding from said visitors under the Hufflepuff table. Shiraishi had dodged under the minute he'd seen familiar faces walk through the door and there he was determined to be until they would be gone.

They might have not been his family, but Oshitari and Shiraishi families were very closely connected, so it would have meant trouble if he was spotted.]

Hallways/Courtyard/Outside

[The rest of the day proves to be rather difficult. Shiraishi does his best to attend all of his classes. Everything goes well once he's in said classes, because there's no way they would come to one of the classes unexpected. It's moving from class to class that's proving to be problematic.

Shiraishi is escaping to cleaning closets and behind larger armors, sometimes even empty classrooms (or maybe they're not empty - maybe there's a teacher inside). Anywhere he can get to escape from familiar voices sounding from the hallways. Sometimes he even hides on false alarms, just to be sure.

His master piece must be the time when he climbed to a tree to avoid being seen on his way to the greenhouses.

Really, he should have called in sick. That was just risky as well, because they were healers, those Oshitaris. Of course they'd go to the infirmary and with his luck he'd have run into them when asking for a sick leave.

What a day this was proving to be.]

one_step_ahead

Ravenclaw tower / Outside

[Nowadays it seems like a Peregrine Falcon has found a nest atop of the Ravenclaw tower, where it can be seen sitting sometimes, observing quietly one moment, before diving down with it's incredible speed, when it's next prey catches it's eyes... Oh. Right. That's just Kenya practicing his form. Did he just scare the living daylights out of you? His bad, except he's probably laughing unashamedly at your freaked out expression. Sorry~]

Quidditch field

[One of the first places Kenya decides to check out, is the pitch, seeing as he signed himself into his house team. He's played at Mahoutokoro as well and he loved it, he knows he'd miss it, if he didn't get to play for half a year, or more. And his speed had beat every player that was in the team, granting him a starting position like a piece of cake. He's a Chaser now. Too bad the Seeker is already occupied, by someone so influential, but alas. Kenya prefers the Chaser position, so it's all good. Less responsibility on his shoulders. He gets on his broom and takes a tentative circle around the field, before starting to practice a few maneuvers.]

Locked to Shiraishi, April 14th, Afternoon

[It's after the classes that day already, when Kenya first seeks out his best friend. Of course they have talked that day already and Kenya said his congratulations, but it wouldn't do with just that. of course he's prepared a little surprise for his best friend, which he has just finished setting up. It's nothing big, but it' not something he can drag along with him through the entire castle either, wthout looking like an idiot.

Now it only needed Shiraishi. Kenya transforms into his falcon form and shoots into the air. It's still the fastest way to find his friend - and the most amusing one. He spots Shiraishi soon enough and dives down in that thunderous speed, intending to make Shiraishi's shoulder his 'prey'. Shiraishi had gotten used to it in Mahoutokoro, but Kenya wonders if distance makes you forget. Soon he's boring his talons into the flesh, but careful enough to not hurt his friend seriously, crying out a falcon's cry, that sounds more like a laugh than anything.]

Remember this?

[Arrival at Hogwarts - Before sorting, School grounds / Hallways]

[Honestly, Kenya believes flying the distance would have been faster. But the School had insisted they do this the regular way and thus he had to endure the draggingly slow trip by the magical clouds, with nothing to do than to lie on the soft, cotton-candy like surface and stare at the blue sky. Joy. But at least he has the time to think what to say to his friend, once he's face to face with the guy. Honestly... To cause such a giant upheaval was usually Kenya's job and Shiraishi's to pull him out of trouble. Well. At least he could repay the favor now. After he gives his best friend a piece of his mind of course. There's a lot of pent up energy in him.]

These damn clouds are way too slow!

[He declares, once he's on the ground, as he stretches his muscles and tarts walking towards the castle in a brisk pace. Now only to find the headmistress office. Preferably before getting lost... Or maybe it's too late for that?]

[After sorting, Hallways]

[The sorting goes rather quickly and uneventfully, though the... hat... thing... whatever does hesitate for a moment whether Huff...puff something isn't more suited for him, but in the end decides for... Ravenbeak? Ravenfeather... Ravenclaw! That's it. Kenya really needs to remember that, since he'll be staying here for a while. He wonders what house Shiraishi's in. He'll find out later. For now he needs to find out how to get to his dormitory. And not get lost. Again.]

Seriously, what's up with this castle?!

[Settled, Hallways / Great Hall]

[It's his luck, that by the time he's settled and has a room and a bed to sleep in (the dormitory turns out to be in one of the towers and Kenya thinks the view is the most amazing thing, and frankly, he's really happy he got sorted into that house and not the other one, because as he hears it's in the basement and that's NOT where Kenya wants to spend the next half a year, maybe longer), lunch has rolled around. He's farmished. That day a blonde haired boy can be seen running through the hallways at the speed of a cheetah, bumping into people as he goes, usually yelling an apology, not even turning to look around. Once he arrives at the great hall, it's like an Oasis for a man who spent a week in the desert. The people, the food... the ceiling omg! Now he only needs to find an empty seat.]
