xx☼ Wʜᴇʀᴇ Aᴍ I? News Room
xxx☼ Wʜᴏ Is Wɪᴛʜ Mᴇ? Adi, Sierra, Eddie, Bee, that kid(?)
xxxx☼ Wʜᴀᴛ's Gᴏɪɴɢ Oɴ? Daily Dragon Meeting
xxxxx☼ Wʜᴀᴛ's Iɴsɪᴅᴇ Mʏ Hᴇᴀᴅ? There's gonna be lots to photograph this year! Another day, another club. Seb had to admit that he was busier this year than anticipated. Especially since he now had added Prefect tasks, more clubs, and (probably) still quidditch. But for now, he had things to do. Mama had gotten him a new camera for his birthday this year, and he was eager to show it to his friends at the Daily Dragon. If Sierra and Adi didn't appreciate it, Eddie probably would! His dad owned the camera store! He hurried off, squawking when he fell down a few steps. At least his camera was safe (even if his tailbone was a bit sore). He carefully got himself stood back up, laughing off his fall as he kept up on his walk. Closer to the newsroom, he found Adi, who was walking toward the club himself. "Hey-di, Adi! need a walkin' buddy?" Adi laughed, offering a nod. "Sure, Seb! We're off to the same place anyhow." The two walked together, and into the room. "What's that about photographers? I got a new camera for my birthday!" He rooted into his bag and held out his shiny new camera. He'd already run through a whole reel of film taking pictures around Diagon Alley. With that handled, he looked at the sign-in forms. Aw beans, there were a lot of questions. "Don't worry, Seb. You and I can fill them out together." Ah, Seb loved having good friends. The two quietly talked as Adelai filled out Seb's forms, and then the older teen noticed that Adi talked through his own form. It was almost like he was making it less awkward. Good lad. Finally, Adi turned both in to Sierra.

We kill the girls to get paid
And put the whole damn room on the edge of the blade
You'll get far, stay clean
And if the world stops believing, I'll keep believing
That the world could make a change  Hufflepuff Seventh Yeɑɾ 🧏♀️ Dɑily Drɑgon Editor 📝 Alwɑγs Wɑtching ☆¸¸ .•*¨★ Sierra smiled gratefully as Bieto took charge on one of the more trickier typewriters and just stood back to watch. She did however raise an eyebrow as he mentioned Lewis' supposed "big plans" which knowing that dork could mean anything from a grand mural to a campfire by the lake. Both of which would work for her but really, the better one had chocolate. She was about to ask about the plans when he seemed happily surprised by the tea which had her grin widen. "I didn't but good to know. It's charmed tea, supposed to taste like your favorite. I found it in a shop in Thailand. Pretty great right?" Maybe she'd include a satchel alongside some herbal tea to Bieto when she officially handed the paper down to him. She was about to ask him how he felt about Hufflepuff's chances at the cup when a first year came in and very seriously introduced herself while in the same breath basically explaining her plans for world domination. Sorry. Photography.
She honestly might've even laughed a bit had it a) not been a firstie and b) not had poor Eddie coming in thinking he'd lost his livelihood. She swore, her artists took their jobs wayy more seriously than the writers. Sierra just shared a quick look with Bieto before tackling one issue at a time. Grabbing her notebook, she wrote out her words quickly before handing it to Irmak with a quick grin. "Hi, I'm Sierra Whitethorne the Editor in Chief for the paper. Please excuse my note, I'm deaf and use BSL but I wasn't sure if you knew it. I have no doubt you'll be a great writer and asset to the paper before you make your grand takeover change."
After giving over the note, she walked over to Eddie who was now surrounded by her other flock of lenses Seb and Addy causing her to chuckle quietly to herself. "No worries Eddie, Irmak, the first year, was just explaining how she was going to stick with writing for a while since I already have the best of the best." she signed to him barely resisting ruffling his head. He was good kid, kinda an oddball but a good one at least. Sierra did not however hold back from doing the same to Sebastian's wild locks as Addy handed her both their forms.
"That's great! Can't wait to see what you can do with it. Go ahead and grab some of the snacks and tea. I brought something special this year." she instructed as she filed away the forms into their separate piles. Before she could even look up, another form slid its way over to her causing her to look up and sigh at the sight of Rosa in her beaming glory. Would she miss her? Maybe. Would she ever tell her that? Absolutely not.
Name: Rosa AbramsYear: Third House: Hufflepuff Any experience: 2 years down, more to go! Why do you want to be a writer for the Daily Dragon?: I like seeing my writing be published and i enjoy sharing my opinions or what's happening with everyone. Do you have a preferred section?: Announcements, specialties, maybe now that I'm older I can get into the gossip?? Pleeasseee??? Clubs you're affiliated with or informed of: Art club, Literature club, Drama club Do you agree to have your writing reviewed and checked by editors before being published?: Yes This position has a deadline, do you understand and can you abide by the deadlines given?: Yes Hail! Hail!
'Cause the king is gone
And if you don't stop believing, we'll keep believing
You put the record on
And live the life that you're making, shots that you're taking
So grab the cash and run

xx↠ Wʜᴇʀᴇ Aᴍ I? News Room
xxx↠ Wʜᴏ Is Wɪᴛʜ Mᴇ? Sierra, Irmak, Eddie, Seb, and Adi
xxxx↠ Wʜᴀᴛ's Gᴏɪɴɢ Oɴ? Daily Dragon
xxxxx↠ Wʜᴀᴛ's Iɴsɪᴅᴇ Mʏ Hᴇᴀᴅ? This tea is lovely!
Bieito watched as Sierra grinned happily, then watched her hands move as she signed. Apparently the tea was charmed, which was epic! He set his cup down, then moved to sign in return. "Charmed tea? That's insane! I also like these crunchy strawberry things. You always know the best snacks to choose." He laughed softly, but he was serious. While he was an okay-ish cook, he wouldn't have thought to bring candied berries and charmed tea. Sierra had always thought about bringing fancy treats. She was just a thoughtful person overall.
He looked over when one of the new first years (Irmak, in Slytherin) said she was taking over the photography eventually, but for now, she'd stick to writing. Oh boy. And, of course, Eddie walked in right at that time..... Thankfully, Sierra went quickly to explain the situation to Eddie. "Oh. Well... okay. I got a new camera. And a new vintage this year. So I would like to continue my typical role. Thank you."
Seb laughed happily when Sierra said his new camera was cool. "It has an action pictures button!" And then Seb and Adi went to the snack table. Bee tittered when he saw the fifth year sniff the tea and set it back down before grabbing a little waffle instead. Adi grabbed some tea, before shifting to sit on his walker for a bit. "I also noted that I can do editing this year, if you need. I wasn't sure if it needed a second form, but if it does, I'll fill it out." He gave a grin as he sipped his tea. At least he looked happy too. "Oh, oui, I can do editing too, if you need. I don't mind a bit of extra work." Bee added, smiling over at Sierra before crunching on another strawberry.

xxxxxx❈Wʜᴀᴛ's ᴍʏ ᴄᴜʀʀᴇɴᴛ ᴍᴏᴏᴅ? Confident! Despite being in some fun clubs last year, Poppy had decided she wanted to try out a few more this year. One of those was the school newspaper! Sure, she'd never tried journalism, but they had a comics section... and surely someone would help her figure out the writing part. Plus, it looked great for her eventual resume. Her hair turned a lovely nectarine color with her determination to nail this. It was probably an audition of some sort, so she had to be on top of her game. Stepping in, she looked around excitedly. Her hair shifted to a vibrant yellow with her curiosity. Oh wait. She was here for an interview, probably! No wait. There were just application forms. Heck yea! Even easier.... now what role did she want to take? "Excuse me, are we allowed to fill out for multiple roles? I'm not sure which I would be best at, and want to try my hand at a few." After getting an approval, she tossed her now venitian red hair over her shoulder as she worked on filling them out.
