'Hard to believe the year's already over,' thought Dani as she checked herself over one last time before heading down for the Year End Feast. 'Feels like it was yesterday we were coming over on the boats, and seeing the castle for the first time.' She was feeling a bit nervous, not because she was worried about the outcome of the competition for the House Cup, but because she wasn't sure what the summer would bring.
Officially speaking she really was in a bit of a gray area; her parents didn't want her, and Dani knew she wouldn't be welcome were she to arrive on their doorstep with her school trunk, and as far as she knew her aunt had yet to finalize arrangements for her. 'It's really gonna suck if I get back to London and discover I'm stuck.' Worse, she remembered stories her Mom told about her aunt and her dotty moments and absentminded spells. Dani wasn't certain if these tales were just her way of getting back at her sister for being a witch, or if there was truth to them.
Sassafras leaned over and meowed sympathetically as she rubbed her whiskers against Dani's hand. The ginger-furred Persian always seemed to know when she needed a reminder that she wasn't unloved. Sassafras purred loudly when Dani started petting her long fur, and then licked her with her scratchy pink tongue. Dani giggled softly, and her misgivings abated, at least for a time. 'I'm going to enjoy tonight, and let tomorrow work itself out.'
Dani made the now very familiar trek from the dormitories in the Gryffindor Tower down to the Great Hall, taking care to be down there in good time. She had one last personal project left to complete: she wanted to make sure she had contact information for all her teammates, including the other Reserves, as well as other First Years, like Elijah, as she got the feeling he might be cut off from everyone if she didn't, and Cathy, of course. She also needed to find Jacob, so she could see about some sort of meet-up in the summer for the team.

Dani's eyes lit up when she saw Jacob, and she quickly made her way over to him. She smiled as she looked up toward him, and said, "Hi, um, I was wondering if I could have your contact info? I'd like to keep touch over the summer. Here's mine."
From a pocket, Dani produced a bit of parchment. She'd made several such notes containing her contact information, including the more modern conveniences she was accustomed to.
"I was also wondering... Since, you'll probably be inheriting the team, is there any chance we can set up a team meetup or two over the summer? It would be nice if we could get some practices in, and if you've got any ideas you want to implement, you know, it would be a good time to try them out. What do you think?"

I will understand
Believe me, believe me
I can't help but love you

Timothy walked into the Great Hall, his mind preoccupied by other things while he headed to the Staff Table. Well, nothing to be done about that. It was the end of the year, and a pretty uneventful one at that. Now it was time to wrap up the year, which meant that he had to make announcements at the feast. Getting to the staff table, he stood before taking a seat and addressed the students. "Welcome everyone! It seems we have come to the end of another year, and of course the summer holidays. Now, before we get to all of that, we have some announcements regarding the cups to say. In fourth place, Ravenclaw with 180 points. In third, Hufflepuff with 330 points. In second, and runner up for the Quidditch Cup, Slytherin with 345 points. In first, and winner of the Quidditch and House Cup, Gryffindor with an astounding 555 points. Good job everyone, I hope everyone tries just as hard next year for the cups. Now, please, tuck in, and enjoy the last night of the school year!"

"Thank you," Dani will excitedly, as she placed Jacob's information with what she gathered already. She mentally promised herself to load all of it onto her phone, as soon as she was clear of the magical aura which made her Smartphone nothing more than a paperweight. She'd been told by her aunt she'd taken care of transferring her phone over to a new account, since her parents allowed her old account to die. "I'll probably call you in about a week," she added, before rushing off to find a seat.
She found an empty seat by Veronica, and as she landed on the bench, Dani gushed, "Talked to Jacob, he seems agreeable to the idea of some off-season conditioning. I think we might be able to do it. What's a 'Knight Bus'?"
When the Deputy Headmaster announced the points standing and that their House won, Dani let out a loud cheer. Right then, Dani could not think of anywhere else in all the world she wanted to be than where she was: in the Great Hall celebrating a term's hard work with her friends.

  Took your advice and did the opposite
Just being young and stupid
I haven't been all that you could've hoped for
But if you'd held on a little longer
You'd have had more reasons to be proud...

Huh? The Knight Bus? Veronica had began to let her mind wonder as she stared up towards the staff table, though mostly into space. That was when she heard a voice began with 'talked to Jacob...' She glanced up and turned to see Danica and listed as she explained Jacob's reaction to her proposal about the team meeting up over the summer and then asked about the Knight Bus.
She paused with a polite smile when Professor Steele interrupted with the announcement of Gryffindor winning both the quidditch and house cup. She smiled more genuinely hearing her house won both, though her reaction was far more subdued than the cheers of Danica and most of the other housemates. Once Dani calmed some, Veronica answered, "That sounds great and the Knight Bus is apparently a fairly cheap public transit option for wizards. Way cheaper than say taking the train. I've only seen it once in passing, but I've never taken it. Crash uses it, though, he knows far more about it than I do. He mentioned it being a bit unsettling or something of that sort..."
She shrugged and said, "Sorry I can't be more helpful. Even when I lived in Hawkinge I only used muggle transportation... the bus to Dover... the train to get to London... or Dad would take me from the station by car if his schedule allowed. It might be nice to actually practice flying, though. I have been debating getting a new broom for a bit, so if I do that would give me an opportunity to test it out."
"Anyways, you already have gotten my contact info, so be sure to at least let me know about whatever is decided," Veronica added with a smile at Dani.
So many questions
But I'm talking to myself
I know that you can't hear me any more
Not anymore
So much to tell you
And most of all goodbye
But I know that you can't hear me any more...

Luke sat down next to Steffi, already eyeing the Great Hall and thinking. Last Sorting for him, and well, he doubted he would miss the school. Okay, well maybe a little bit. He glanced over to Steffi, a smirk gracing his features as he considered what they were going to do for the last school year. He had plans, and a lot of them revolved around getting dimensions on the place. He knew he could never beat the Weasley twins for their grandiose stunts, but he could try. Green eyes lazily roved over the room, and he caught himself snickering. Oh yeah, this was going to be a great end to the year. Looking over to Steffi, he gave her a wry grin . "So, what do you think are the odds that the house gets paranoid that I'm sitting here again?"

Lowly with my head вσωε∂, there are rats εvεяүωнεяε.
Feed me вяεα∂ and ωαтεя, I won’t ∂ιε in there.
Steffi smiled when Luke sat down next to her. Her hand dropped to rest against his knee under the table as she glanced up towards the front of the hall. She couldn't particularly kiss him if his mother was sitting at the staff table now could she? At his words, she turned her attention back to him with a sly smirk. "Its our last year too. If they weren't already paranoid... now they definitely are." She chuckled. They were in for a huge amount of trouble this year, but it would be so worth it. And honestly, when were they ever caught for the things they did. Hell her first year she'd chucked a spoon at that git Xavier's head and never once got in trouble for it.
Her, Tobi, and Luke's plans to leave the school with a bang would be fantastic. They would never be the Weasley's but she was sure to help get them get as close as possible to that standard that she could. This school would never forget them. She was sure of that one thing at least. She smiled and rested her head on his shoulder. "You gonna miss this place?" She asked curiously, her hand absentmindedly tracing circles on his leg. It was a mixed feeling for her really. The school had been her first real home since her parents left her at the orphanage when she was a toddler. But she had a new home now, and he was sitting right next to her. She wasn't sure she'd miss the school, but part of her felt like maybe it'd always be a slight home to her.

Born on June 22, 2011
5 feet 7.5 inches tall Wearing: My UniformAt: Gryffindor Table With: No one in particular Thinking: Jer is actually sitting at Slytherin for once? Hmm... maybe he cares about being a prefect after all.
 Veronica had spent most of the trip to the castle contemplating just what brand of permanent dye Victor's cousin had gotten her hands on a few years back just to give Victor a new hair color like the pink to deal with for ages. The mere fact that Victor obviously had some crazy idea that Ronna liked Toby or whatever was bad enough. The fact that Gypsy kept making jabs at Toby and probably her about the incident over the summer was to be expected and just went to show that she knew about it. Victor could get Gypsy on board to some crazy scheme or whatever and it just disturbed her.
She sighed stretching as she walked into the great hall and glancing at the table. Gypsy and Jer had both beat her there and they were sitting at their respective house tables. She was actually kind of shocked to see Jer with the Slytherins since it was so unusual, but could only hope it was that Jer was actually going to make a decent go at the whole prefect thing. Better him be a prefect any day than the Russian.
 With a sigh she sat down at the still mostly empty table on her own and massaged her forehead with a hand as she took a moment of peace in before the first years began to be sorted, or say Toby showed up, or maybe even Theo did who she could only assume despised every friend he ever met or knew of hers or talked to by this point. Actually she was fairly sure it was just people she talked to in general. It was weird but she more or less attempted to brush it off. This could potentially be a long year for her beyond the expected of OWLs.

You called my name in the dark
Called me back to the start
The condensation is building tension
A stubborn silence is formed Around our bodies it's warm
The cool wet grasses as summer passes
Frightened under attack
Fallen flat on my back
Tobias Philemon Walsh - Halfblood Twin - Fifth Year Prefect - Gryffindor Beater - [feeling: unsure] [thinking: ...] [with: Gryffindors, near Ronna] [at: Gryffindor Table]
Toby took a seat at the Gryffindor Table near Ronna but not too close with the air of someone approaching a wild animal. He figured she might be offended if he pointedly sat at the opposite end of the table, and he didn't want to be an arse tonight. He looked down self consciously at his gleaming badge, and tried not to groan. Maybe everyone would think it was fake or some sort of joke, and he wouldn't have to deal with this prefect thing like, ever. He was, he had to admit, very relieved to be away from Jess and Gypsy and the combined might of the two. He reddened just thinking about them and their comments. He glanced at Ronna as covertly as possible, wishing is hair was longer so he could hide behind it. Stupid Mum and her stupid insistence on haircuts. Well, Ronna didn't look overly annoyed or angry, so he was going to take that as a good sign. He didn't say anything, though, just stared at the table as the Sorting started up.
I'm gonna kick the darkness until it bleeds daylight.
Raising cities to dust
Faces dripping in lust
Fallen empires and raging bush fires
All your words confounded Secret lives bound and hid
Living backwards in tangled backwoods
You ruined everything right
So good I can’t see the light
