Mama told me not to waste my life
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And if they give you trouble
Then they can walk on by My feet, feet can't touch the ground
And I can't hear a sound
But you just keep on running up your mouth yeah
Walk, walk on over there
'Cause I'm too fly to care, oh yeah
Jessamine Cathlin Walsh ~ Halfblood Hufflepuff ~ First Year ~ Twin ~ {feeling: content} {thinking: this food...} {with: Terren} {at: Hufflepuff Table}
Jess shrugged a little, as she hungrily dug into her food. "Well, I was sort of expecting Gryffindor, like Toby, but this was pretty much my second choice. My other brother's in Hufflepuff too, so it's all good." Good grief, this food was so good. This was best meal she'd ever eaten, period. No offense to her mother's cooking or anything, but... This was really, really good food. Not long afterwards a prefect stood up and made to lead them out. Jess jumped to her feet, but not before finishing the last of her treacle tart, and joined the crowd of first years exiting the Great Hall.
It doesn't matter if I fall from the sky.
Your words don't mean a thing
I'm not listening
Keep talking, all I know is
Mama told me not to waste my life,
She said spread your wings my little butterfly Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say – it won't hurt me

Claire was beyond overjoyed when she heard that Nell approved of the name. Bopper it was! Without moving around too much, Claire kept the hamster in her palm while she ate with her other hand, trying her best not to wake the baby in its slumber. She wasted no time in filling up with food before the other ravenous students could finish off the plates at the table - this was a lesson Claire had learned in her First Year. There was always enough food for everyone... but whether or not the food was to that person's liking or not was an entirely different story. Her first course consisted mainly of sweets, though not too much as the girl did not particularly want to be bouncing off the walls her first night back at Hogwarts.
Then came the regular meal - Claire got herself a nice and juicy drumstick, some mashed potatoes, a section of corn and some cornbread. The portions were small because Claire didn't like to waste food and she naturally couldn't eat that much in the first place. She ate slowly, knowing that there was no need to rush. She wasn't in her First Year, and thus she didn't need to be escorted out of the Hall earlier than the others. When it finally was time, though, Claire almost stood up with the rest of the First Years. She watched with a smile as the first years were ushered from the table, remembering how she felt exactly one year ago when she was taken through the winding passages to the Hufflepuff Common Room.

※Fifth Year※Hufflepuff※Chaser※Prefect※
Dhyl opened and held open the door to the Great Hall, glancing at the Hufflepuff table. Ada's question made him think, but he soon said, "No. Her being my sister only impacts my thought a little. I worry about a lot of people. You, Lyv, Heather, Rem... A-Ari...." His cheeks went a tinge pink on the last name, but he turned his face to hopefully avoid judgement. He plopped down at the table, then began to prepare his plate, hands shaking a bit. When she asked why he hadn't been sleeping, he blinked. "I've been studying. Our OWLs are coming up, and I don't want even the slightest possibility that I'd be shy of perfection." He'd been studying near nonstop, including during classes and meals. Heck, if he could swing it, he'd study during Quidditch as well. He took a bite, hands still shaking. He didn't seem to notice that his food kept falling off his fork due to the quivering, no, his mind had long since wandered.

'You didn't have to look my way;

Adalaide sat next to Dhyl, her expression thoughtful. He worried about her? Why? She supposed it made sense on the Quidditch Pitch... that was probably what he was talking about. But, when he stumbled over Ariana's name, she gave him an amused look. "Ariana, huh?" She dropped it after that, not wanting to push him, or to embarrass him. "I can see that. She's the only Seeker we've got, and she's really nice. I could see worrying about her." Nice, neutral excuse, right? But she knew. She'd seen the blush. It'd been sort of adorable. She wondered what Ariana was doing going out with a guy like Steele when someone like Dhyl obviously had feelings for her. She'd noticed things, of course, before their practices and games. How he'd look at her all the time, how his eyes lit up when he watched her... how much it bothered him to see her with Steele.
She tried to imagine staying up, accidentally, no less, for three or four days, because she was studying. She cared about her grades, but not nearly that much. She was already losing sleep over her boyfriend, no need to add her classes to that. Besides, the ones that were really important to her, she was doing just fine in. She'd do great on the tests, she was sure. Or, well enough. Perhaps she should study a bit, at least... "I've mostly been practicing spells. I mean, I do fine with the written work and all that. I'm more worried about caving under pressure." Ada didn't want her exam to end up like her first Defense lesson. Someone watching and judging her while she tried to cast spells would be incredibly nerve-wracking. She'd do well to be performing them as close to perfectly as she could manage, so that her nerves wouldn't be on top of a lack of ability or confidence.

Adalaide blushed bright red. Oh, she felt awful! She'd completely forgotten about Terren! She grimaced. "Oh, that's bloody brilliant, I can't even remember who all's on my own team." She took her fork and started pushing her food around on her plate, sighing. She really needed to pay more attention... "Still... I mean, I can see why you'd worry about her. She's really sweet. I guess that tends to bring out people's protective instincts." Ada herself was a prime example. While she wouldn't actually call herself sweet per say, she knew it was an adjective people used to describe her often enough. And it seemed like everyone she was around wanted to protect her. Michelle, Chris, hell, even Nell didn't like the idea of her being in danger. The only person who didn't worry about her was Damien.
When he suddenly was freaking out about her not studying, her eyebrows shot up. She backed up a bit, surprised by his intensity. "Dhyl, it's fine! I quiz myself regularly to be sure I'm doing well, it's not like I've not cracked a book!" She giggled at him, figuring that he was one of those people who wanted all O's. Ada would be happy if she passed everything and managed to get O's in the classes pertinent to her career plans... namely, Herbology and Potions. As for the others... the ones she'd be using, she did well in on her own, without worrying about it. The only thing she really need to study up on was Transfiguration, really. Everything else important she felt like she had. "But thanks for the offer. I'd take it, except I'm afraid you might panic every time I miss a question," she teased, taking a small bite off of a roll, poking him in the shoulder. She liked this side of him, the side that was worried about other people instead of dwelling on his own sorrows. Compassionate instead of hopeless. It was a good fit for him.

Dhyl snickered, then pat Ada on the back. "Chill. I've known Terren since he was a wee little one. Met him the summer before my first year, when I met Heather and Remy." The girl kept talking about Ariana, making the boy's blue eyes sparkled. "L-like I said... I'm worried about all of you... no one more than another... not really..." He glanced away, looking to see if the redhead was at the table. When he didn't see her, he gave a light sigh, then looked back at Ada.
The taller boy shook his head, then grinned. "I wouldn't panic at every missed answer, unless it's in History... then I might have a heart attack." He loved History, and had been debating on making a career of it. Of course, he probably wouldn't be a teacher, at least not here, since Powell wasn't near old enough to retire... assuming he was relieved of his coma. He looked at Ada, a thoughtful sort of expression on his face. "Would you ever go to a magical history museum?"

'You didn't have to look my way;
Your eyes still haunt me to this day.' ═════════════════════════════════
Adalaide's expression said 'If you say so,' but she stayed quiet. She knew how hard it was to come out and say you liked someone. She hadn't been able to admit she'd liked Chris until she'd gotten his letter... scratch that. At the Ball, when he'd said she looked pretty and asked her to dance. So she'd been in pretty heavy denial, all because she'd been afraid of rejection. Not that rejection had really been an option, since she hadn't known how to contact him... that was a lie, though, too, she realized. She could've simply asked Gracie. Wow. She'd been in serious, serious denial. It was sort of odd to think of that, given that they were now an actual couple. She smiled at the thought. He'd asked her to be his girlfriend. And kissed her, and it had been amazing. She flushed lightly, and forced her thoughts away from that.
She chuckled a bit. "Nah, History's one of my good subjects. I'll do fine on that one. I retain information really easily; it's why I'm so good at potions. Half the time, if I've brewed it once before, I hardly have to look at the directions. So I guess that one'll go swimmingly as well. I'm really just worried about my wandwork, like I said. The intellectual parts never been much of a problem for me; actually doing magic, on the other hand..." She gave him a wry grin. "Let's just say I need all the practice I can get. Especially for Transfiguration." Adalaide recalled that her wand's wood was partial to defensive spells, and her core to charms, and the wand had chosen her, meaning that she must have a predilection for these as well. It wasn't surprising, then, that she struggled in Transfiguration. She couldn't be good at everything, after all.
His question about a magical history museum made her quirk a brow. She started to ask who wouldn't want to go, but stopped herself just before the words left her mouth. She knew several someones who wouldn't; Michelle, obviously. Gracie probably wouldn't be too keen on it, either. Neither would Rose; Ada thought she'd heard Nell going on about Rose hiding when it was time to study. She snickered; maybe she should send Dhyl after her. "I would love to go to one. I think it'd be very interesting." Ada could think of one other person who might be very, very interested in it as well... she smiled. Chris would eat that up. He'd love it. She wondered if such a place actually existed; she didn't think she'd heard of one. She knew of several memorial sites, like the memorial to the Potter family in Godric's Hollow. But she didn't think she'd heard of an actual museum... she would have to look into it. Or, had Dhyl's question been just out of curiosity, if this were a thing, would you like it? She wondered...

Dhyl nodded about Ada's OWLs, wanting to drop the topic of Ariana. He didn't like her! Well... he did, but as a friend! No weird fluttery feelings! Nope... No way. "History's my favorite. I love learning about the past and stuff. It fascinates me." He smiled lightly as he poured some tea, then sipped it before adding a few teaspoons of sugar. Ada needed help in magic? And he needed help in potions.... "I was going to ask Remy for help, but I'll make you a bargain. Help me in potions and I'll help with your spellcasting." He grinned, then took a bite of what he assumed was fish... maybe chicken...
When Ada said she'd find it interesting to go to a magical history museum, Dhyl's eyes lit up like a flashbulb. "Really?! You'd really go? Not like I have any reason to wonder, of course, since such a thing doesn't exist..." "yet" He blushed a bit, then stirred his tea, dreams of the future filling his head with thoughts and ideas.

'You didn't have to look my way;

Adalaide chewed slowly, tapping her chin with the end of her fork, a faux-thoughtful expression on her face, like she was considering his proposition. After a moment, she smiled. "Sounds like a deal. My dad's a potioneer, I can do most of the easier ones blind-folded. Harder ones... well, I've never had a completely ruined potion. Not even first year. Nowadays... sometimes I don't get the temperature quite right, and they're a bit too hot or cold in that stage. That usually affects the strength, I think is what dad told me." She took another bite, smiling. It'd be nice to have a tutor to help with the spells. She could practice all she wanted, but but without someone to offer helpful tips and tell her what she might be doing wrong.
She almost pouted when Dhyl confirmed her suspicion that such a place didn't exist. Her expression went thoughtful again, this time genuinely so, and she started the chin-tapping again as she chewed. "Maybe you should open one when you graduate. Gather some old artifacts, put 'em up on display. Have a bunch of plaques talking about why they're significant. It'd be cool. I'd bring my kids to something like that." As soon as the words left her lips, though, she paled a bit, her eyes flashing. Kids? Would she even have those? If she and Chris worked out... was it possible for a vampire to have children? She gave her head a slight shake, banishing those thoughts. They'd not even been dating that long, and she was already worried about the possibility of kids with him? Ridiculous. But then again... maybe it was good that she was thinking of it now, because it meant that she could do research and make decisions. Although... a better question might be, if Chris would even want children. Since the possibility was sort of moot without his also wanting them. But it was way too early to talk about that. She'd have to keep it in mind. And do research.

Adalaide smiled. "No problem. I mean, so long as you're not one of those people who managed to blow everything up. I sort of like my eyebrows, ya know? Think I'd look funny without them. But I don't think I recall you ever blowing anything up." She giggled, taking another bite of her dinner before helping herself to dessert. Pumpkin pie, of course. She absolutely loved that about the school, pumpkin everything was available year-round. She smiled widely as she took the first bite. All these years, she'd eaten it for dessert after pretty much every meal, and she wasn't even remotely sick of it.
Ada was a bit shocked at Dhyl's rather enthusiastic reaction to her comment. She supposed he might have already been planning such a thing... she offered a strained smile, still a bit shaken from her sudden realization. "Totally. Although... night hours would be really nice. It'd make it easier..." She blushed a bit, biting her lip. "I, um, I'm sort of wanting to specialize in nocturnal plants, so I'll be up mostly at night." Not a lie, not at all. If she and Chris stayed together, she'd want to be able to be up at night, and there was a woefully small number of people who knew anything about nocturnal plants... a lot of people didn't even know there was a such thing as a night-blooming flower.
