Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
(OOC: Sorry, I just thought that his next action was unbearably obvious, so I didn't think it would matter.)
IC:
The A's and B's went on without Johnny noticing, and so did most of the C's, including "Combatir, Jonathan". Still in his own little world, he did not realize that he had been called.
"Combatir, Jonathan!" Girrahipp repeated, louder this time. John didn't notice. One of the guys next to him did, though, and gave him a kick to wake him up.
The force of the kick was a little too much, though, and made the daydreaming John fall out of the group, landing on his face on the cold stone floor.
"Combatir, Jonathan!" Girrahipp almost shouted.
"Oh, yeah, yeah, uh.. that's me. Sorry" John said, trying to get up and blushing to a never before seen shade of red.
In the end, he managed to get on the bench and get the hat on.
"Please, please, pretty please, not Hufflepuff" John thought.
THe sorting hat let out a "hmmmm..." then answered;
"You needn't worry, you are too lazy to be in Hufflepuff"
"Oh, great, rejected by the rejects... This is starting well...." John thought, roling his eyes. THe hat proceeded undistracted.
"You won't go to Slytherin either, you don't have the ambition. And you don't regard yourself high enough, at that... Hmmm............"
"Only two left? Ok, send me to Ravenclaw."
"Are you so sure of that? Why do you not want to go to Gryffindor?" THe hat asked.
"What people call courage today is merely the inability to realize how dangerous a given situation is."
"Oh? What an interesting insight... Hm.. SO, what is "courage" then"
"It is simply a form of self-control, namely the ability to restrain your fear, and act even though you are scared" JOhn stated.
"And you have that ability?" The hat asked.
"Well, yeah. I guess..." John answered, not wanting to look like a bragger.
"So, it's settled then.." The hat said, for some reason giving John goosebumps.
"GRYFFINDOR!!!" The hat bellowed.
John walked towards the Gryffindor table, steaming. What he was thinking about the hat wasn't flattering. He managed to calm himself before taking place, after all, anger wouldn't help him in the least.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
(((OOC: Yes, that's why I don't mind in the least, just warning you to be careful ^_^ It's actually more for those who might be reading this thread and not participating, so that they don't get any...stupid ideas.)))
Elizabeth, for once, had a bit of a goal at this point. She had never really had much of what anyone could even possibly call direction in life, and this wasn't that great a goal either, but she now set her mind in stone. She would be joining Gryffindor.
The alphabet seemed to move quicker now, Elizabeth found herself concentrating only on this goal. She then began to wonder how interesting the world becomes when one has a goal. "It's not nearly as dreary as usual," she mumbled softly to herself.
She was distracted from her thoughts as she heard her name being called out, "Maxwell, Elizabeth."
She walked smoothly forward, bypassing a couple of students who sneered at her, though she didn't notice at all. Her robes swished pleasingly as she sat down. And as soon as the hat was placed upon her head, she felt a strange sensation. It seemed like someone was taking up room and board in her mind, and she didn't know if this was uncomfortable or wonderful. But before she could decide, a gruff voice spoke to her. It was the voice of her new occupant, the voice of the Hat, "You seem to be quite the thoughtful one! I think you should fit nicely into Ravenclaw."
"I'm sorry, Sorting Hat, sir, but that will not do. I am to be in Gryffindor."
"What? On what premise should I change my mind?"
"On no premise, sir, but my decision."
"Oh-ho!," The Sorting Hat laughed aloud, surprising a couple of students sitting nearer to it. It continued, however, back inside Elizabeth's mind, "You seem to want to get what you desire regardless of anything else. That's a Slytherin quality, through and through. Why not join them?? Surely, with all of those goal-seeking minds behind you, you could reach whatever heights you wish to."
"I will not join them, sir, because my friend is not one of them. I have decided that I will be in the same house as him, no matter what, and that house is Gryffindor."
If the Hat could smile, well, smile more than a rip could, it surely would have done so. For all along it knew, from the moment it touched this girl's head, which house she would belong in. Aloud he shouted for all to hear, "GRYFFINDOR!!"
Elizabeth smiled the same gentle smile from before as she found her way to the Gryffindor table, and sat happily next to Albus.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
John hadn't been sitting by the table for a long time before the guy from before took a seat in front of him. John recognized him right away, since he was still carrying that box of his. He quickly supressed his disappointment about being in Gryffindor, "Well, it's better than Hufflepuff" and stretched his hand out toward him with a bright smile.
"Hey, you're that guy who tripped earlier, right? Albus, was it? I'm John. Could I ask, what's in that box you're holding?" He said, not being able to control his curiosity.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
The dark skinned girl who had been nervously wringing her hands in front of Elizabeth had finally come to sit and have the Sorting Hat placed on her head. Though no one could hear what the Sorting Hat might be telling the girl, this particular sorting seemed to take longer than any of the others previous. A wondering silence took up the room as all the students ceased their quiet murmuring to see what was the matter. Elizabeth even called her attention from the adorably still-trembling Albus.
The girl sat, squinting her eyes hard as if she might be slapped at any moment, and a visible sheet of sweat began to form along her brow, dripping here and there, down her cheeks. Elizabeth noticed that not only was this sorting taking an incredulous amount of time, but this girl was also the last student to be sorted. Not a single person stood now save for Professor Girrahipp, who also seemed impressed by the difficulty the hat seemed to be having.
Several long minutes passed in complete silence, when finally, "GRYFFINDOR!!"
The girl gratefully stepped down and almost ran to the Gryffindor table. It seemed like she would cry from embarrassment, but she steeled herself and took a seat next to Elizabeth, smiling at her as if she was happy just to be amidst others' rather than being stared at by them. To ease her nerves, she blurted out, "Hello, I'm Samantha Zyrill. It's a pleasure." Samantha had taken Elizabeth's hand and was shaking it, or rather, her nerves were shaking it while she introduced herself. Then, it seemed she decided that what she had just done was much too straight-forward and she became embarrassed. The slightest hint of pink showed upon her dark cheeks as she abruptly let go of Elizabeth's hand and turned to squarely face the table, looking down as though varnished wood was the most amazing thing she had ever seen.
Elizabeth smiled once again, in the same warm fashion as she had to Albus. She took Samantha's hand in a proper handshake and said, "The pleasure's mine, lass. I am Elizabeth Dairk Eyine Maxwell."

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
Albus looked at Johnny. "Nice to meet you." Albus said and grinned sheepishly. "Oh, the box?" He asked. "Yeah, it's uh, well, take a look." Albus leaned across the table and opened the tin box, showing Johnny the tiny pink, fuzzy bird with the hooked beak. "His name is Fawkes, I think he's a baby pidgeon, I found him a few weeks ago and hatched his egg. Just my pet, nothing to fancy really." Albus shrugged at stroked the baby bird under the chin and then closed the lid and tucked the box in his robes.
Albus grinned when Eli sat down next to him. "Well then..." He gulped, turning beat red. "It looksl ike we're..in the, the same house." He looked at the plate before him. "A kind coincidence.." He jumped as a plate of food appeared before him. Pot roasts, mashed potatoes and fresh spinach with mustard sauce filled the hall with the scent of fresh cooked dinner.
"Wow..." Albus marveled as he poked the pot raost with his fork. "It's real!!" He gleamed. "How wonderful."
He took a bite and smirked. "How delicous." Albus then took an entire bag of lemon drops and poured some of them on the plate, next to the spinach.
He loved sweets very much, almost as much as he loved Fawkes.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
Before any more conversation could be sparked between the four new Gryffindors, all of the five long tables in the Great Hall burst forth with all kinds of delicious smelling foods. Elizabeth and Samantha both found themselves ravished with hunger. They cast each other a sidelong glace and then dived for their favorite foods.
Samantha loaded her plate with carrots marinated in sweet sauce, a large helping of roast chicken, some mashed potatoes, and a bit of dark green lettuce. She cut the chicken with her knife, which had also appeared out of thin air along with a fork and spoon, and mixed everything together before stuffing a large forkful into her drooling mouth.
Elizabeth was a bit disappointed that the desserts had not been served along with the main course, but she knew she could wait, so she turned to a large platter of fried chicken that had appeared right in front of her. She took a couple of juicy looking pieces, along with some buttered dinner rolls, rice pilaf, and a scrumptious looking tuna entree. She took a bite of the tuna, and found it to be exquistely flavored with lemon juice and herbs. As she chewed her second mouth-watering bite of tuna, she noticed that Albus had dumped a largish pile of lemon drops onto his plate. Elizabeth turned her head towards Albus and with a curious expression inquired, "You like Muggle candies?"

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
Solis Varbini watched the Sorting of the new first years with mildly detatched interest. It was so much different watching the Sorting than being Sorted. Solis had been placed in Ravenclaw house two years previous when she had come to Hogwarts for her first year. She was from a very well known wizarding family, one with many many Gallions to thier name. However, Solis did not like to get by on the merits of her family, she had spent her first two years building her own reputation, much to the diress of her mother, who thought that Quiddich was an activity that should be beneath her, but Soils didn't care, she had spent her first year learning to fly on a broom stick with out falling off. The second year, she had put her stong arms to excellent advantage as one of Ravenclaw's beaters. She smiled as she saw a little brown haired first year stumble up to be Sorted. 'That one might need some help this year.' She thought to herself as several of the older students snickered at his misfortune.
It was one of Solis's least favorite things when someone was made fun of because of circumstances they had no control over. She smacked the boy sitting next to her and glared at him.
He glared back. "Butt out Varbini." He hissed.
"Just leave him alone, Darius." She muttered back. Then, tossing her Raven, Egyptian braided locks over her shoulder, she folded her darkly tanned arms one atop the other and turned her cyan colored (Blue, for those of you who don't know what cyan is. *Shrug*) eyes to look at Head Master Phlon as he welcomed everyone back to another year at Hogwarts.
When he was finished, Solis tucked into a hearty meal of meats and cheeses, completely ignoring the pastas and pastries. She was glad to be back, and no longer have to endure her mother's brand of cooking, it was going to take her weeks to regain all the muscle mass she had gained last year and been forced to drop over the summer. Solis sighed as she took a particularly large bite out of a pot roast.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
"Yes, very much." Albus said to Elizabeth as he popped a lemondrop in his mouth. "My mum makes them from scratch. I'm a little homesick..." His face blushed again and he looked away. "Just wanted to take a bit of it with me."
Dante Malfoy was a sixth year, and he loved meeting the first years. (Or bullying them if that's what you wish.) "Look at that prat, will you?" He mumbled lazily as he gazed at Albus. "I don't even KNOW his parents, must be from that trashy Daigon Alley set up near Nocturn." Dante smugged as he rested his hand under his chin. His gold silver hair was held high in a ponytail and his Slytherin robes were of velvet and satin. His younger brother, Vance laughed as he gazed as well on Albus. "What's in that box he's got there? A bug?"
"Probably all of his personal belongings." Dante laughed as his brother and others snickered. "Watch this." Dante flicked his wand under his robe so that no one would see and flicked a stream of hot wax from the candles above down on Albus' head.
"OWWWWWWWWW!!!" Albus shrieked and jumped onto the table, holding his wand in his left hand. He pulled the wax off his hair, tears in his eyes.
"Now." Dante told Vance. Vance swallowed a pale blue candy and then kicked Dante and yelled "Expelliarmus!" in a voice that sounded just like Albus'. Dante flew back
and dropped his wand. He stood up and glared at Albus, then leaped on his table.
"Diffindo!!!" Dante roared and shot a green light with his wand. It hit Albus, tearing his pants and sending htem to the floor, revelaing his white underwear. Albus, trying to pull his pants up, pointed his wand at Dante.
"Fumunculus!!!" Albus yelled, but his wand did nothing.
'Right.' Thought Albus. 'I'm a-'
Dante cut him off. "SQUIB!!! BLOODY SQUIB!!!" He howled.
"SQUIB!!!" Vance mirroed him.
"SQUIB!!" The whole Slytherin table jeered.
"SQUIB!!!" Soem Ravenclaws jonied in.
"SQUIB!!!"
Albus covered his tears streamed face with his robes, grabbed his shoebox and ran out of the hall.

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
The food abruptly stopped John's and Albus' conversation, as Albus started pouring lemon drops on his plate.
"I don't think that's a pidgeon... I know I have seen that thing in one of mom's books, but I can't remember.." John thought, but dismissed the thought with a shrug as he noticed all the food popping up everywhere.
He grabbed a chicken, dumping the whole thing on his plate, he started tearing pieces off it and shoving them in his mouth. He was done with the chicken faster than most were done with their first portions. While being the object of many wide-eyed stares, he Put the bones aside and grabbed a pot that was standing beside him.
"I don't know what this is but it's probably good"
Lifting the whole pot and pouring the contents on his plate, the contents were revealed to be very spice mince meat.
Overjoyed at the appearing of spicy food, John put the pot back and put some mashed potatoes on his plate along with the meat.
With his fork, he turned it into a brownish-yellow goo and ate it even faster than he had the chicken.
Someone yelled in pain right next to him, but he didn't bother to look, as he was eating, which was his favourite hobby of all times.
He heard some screaming, but calmly ignored it and got himself another helping of mincemeat. Before he got to eat it, though, he was forced to tear his attention from the food, as a Slytherin student jumped up on the table. Shoving another forkful of food in his mouth, John wondered what the hell this was all about.
"DIffindo!!" Albus was sent to the floor, his pants ripped up, showing his underwear. John had to use all his self-control not to fall over laughing, but he decided that he would not laugh at a Slytherin pulling a prank at one of his own. He discreetly whipped up his wand. "Incendio"(I think that's the name of the spell) He whispered, stealthily setting the Slytherin's robe on fire. Then he sighed.
"Well, as a... uh... "housemate", I suppose I should go after him.. And lend him a new pair of pants. I hope I can get him to come back before dessert..." John thought, then went off to follow Albus.
He found him soon enough, sitting in a set of stairs, sobbing. (Hope you don't mind)
"Ehm... Hey," John greeted, not having the slightest idea on how to comfort someone. "Wanna borrow a new pair of pants?" He pulled a pair of black pants out of a bag he was carrying.
"My mother forced me to bring a whole new set of clothes to the first dinner, she warned me that something like this might happen to me. Buuut, I guess it happened to you instead. So, how about it? And yeah, revenge has already been taken care of." Joh proceeded, trying to sound more cheerful with every word, hoping that he might do some good. "They might be a bunch of numbers too big, though..."

Re: Hogwarts Roleplay
Elizabeth and Samantha sat with their mouths wide open as they helplessly watched the attack on Albus. As the pranks became worse, and eventually the jeers began, the two girls both had faces filled with utter hate and disgust. It was all Samantha could do not to just walk over to the Slytherin table and knock in the Malfoys' wretchedly perfect teeth. Unfortunately, a teacher had finally noticed that some ruckus was ensuing, and had walked over to investigate.
But before that, Albus had torn from the Great Hall trying to hide his sobs, which actually didn't work that well, with his robes. Without a second's notice, Elizabeth got up and ran straight after him, Samantha directly behind her.
They found Albus with another of their classmates, one they had not met yet, but who had visibly introduced himself to Albus in the Great Hall. He was apparently trying to help out by offering the tear-streaked boy a new pair of pants, a pair which obviously would be too big. Elizabeth smiled in a bittersweet way, her anger, sympathy, and amusement all mixing together at this moment. She was able to calm her insides enough to let out her normally gentle voice, "I don't think your pants would fit him, lad. There's no need to worry, though. I may not have any experience with Defense Against the Dark Arts or dueling, but fixing things I do. I was quite the clutz when I was very young, so I mum taught me this spell."
With that, Elizabeth pulled her light brown, maple-wood with Pheonix feather wand from the recesses of her robes. She pointed the tip at Albus' pants and chanted, "Repairo."
The threads sewed themselves together once again, and Albus was free at least from that embarrassment. Sadly, neither Elizabeth nor Samantha knew the spell for "shut it", and so the jeers had continued until Albus left. Elizabeth saw Albus clutching his tin shoebox and felt a warm spot grow in her heart. She sat down next to Albus and used the sleeve of her robes to wipe his tears off his unhappy face before asking, kindly, "What's this about being a Squib, now Albus? Surely, I can't believe that the Hogwarts administrators would send an invitation of attendance to a Squib."
