Roxie had been studying through her Arithmancy notes, trying to make sure she was fully ready for the upcoming OWLs. As she was cross-checking her Transfiguration textbooks, a note appeared on the table. She looked over it, smiling a bit when she read the words. Of course Liv was going for a jam session. She'd been "jamming" the entire time Roxie had known her, and even more this year. Or, perhaps it just seemed that way since Roxie had been busy this year. Liv had continually insisted that Roxie didn't need to study since it was a "sure thing" that they'd make it big as soon as they'd graduate. Of course, Roxie was a little more realistic about the options. It was really, really hard to make it in the music scene, even with all the advantages their group had, and she wanted to ensure that she'd be able to make a living if it didn't succeed.
After tucking her textbooks and notes back in her backpack, Roxie Accio'd her bass, then headed off. She was occasionally peeking into her Defense textbook as she walked. As she got close to the music room, Roxie could hear the familiar sound of her best friend's guitar. Roxie looked in, smiling over toward Liv. The blonde looked rather unlike herself, hair tied into a messy bun and she wasn't wearing her usual array of pink clothing. Then again, Liv wasn't decked out in full goth gear. Roxie walked over and sat in the floor beside the brunette, pulling out her bass and strumming along to Liv's song. It probably wasn't perfect, but that's how they usually figured out their music. Roxie had her own lyrics to share, but it seemed like Liv needed this moment, so she'd simply be there to support.

Jo, as usual, had a drumstick in her hand that she was twirling around. She was in her own world as she walked toward the music room, ready to play. She was tapping her head, eyes slightly closed. This song was going through her head that she couldn't quite pin down, but it was intriguing to her. She'd been glad to receive the note from Liv. She hadn't gotten to be on her drums as much as she would've liked. Mostly just tapping on her bed frame and likely driving her roommates crazy. She'd always take the opportunity to get together with her bandmates and play something real.
Before even getting to the room she could hear the sound of music flowing out of the room, Liv's voice leading it. Liv usually seemed to have things to sing about. Always with a lot of emotion behind it. Which, if she was being honest, Jo didn't fully understand. Not in a bad way. In fact, Jo was a little jealous because well...she didn't have a lot of feelings if she was being perfectly honest. Though Liv also had a lot more going on in her life than Jo did. Jo's life was on an even keel. Sometimes too even. She blew a blonde hair out of her face with a little huff and moved into the room. She hadn't gone out with the intention of being caught in some sort of thought chasm, but here she was.
As she entered the music room, she leaned against the wall, one foot up against it, just listening and tapping it out against the wall.

Roxie continued to strum, not even certain that Liv knew she was there. When the faint sound of drumbeats started up, Roxie sent a smile up to Jo. What an odd group they made. Liv and Jo wearing their usual punk-goth sort of style... then her wearing almost exclusively pink. Sometimes she felt that she didn't really fit in, despite being close friends with both the other girls. After Liv finished her song, she greeted them, saying she'd finished the song. Roxie, in a moment of silliness, decided to reply the sarcastic route. "Nooooo. Reeeeeaaaaaally? I couldn't tell." She stuck out her tongue toward the younger Gryffindor before breaking into a laugh.
She did, however, take the lyric sheet in hand, looking over the bass part. It didn't look like it'd be terrible complex, which was good. Roxie had a lot of other things she was trying to memorize. "I can ask Kylian if he can let us use his studio for a bit. Or Fin, he's got a half-studio at his place." She said, knowing either would likely be glad to let them do their music. But at Liv's question of her own songs, Roxie flushed a vivid red. She looked away, letting her green eyes look anywhere but at the others. "Uhhhh... I don't think they'd match the vibes you're going for with your music. It's... it's not important." Of course, she didn't want them to know that most of her music lately played on her weird teenage feelings of lust primarily, especially since one bandmate was a preteen still.

Jo took sheet music and studied it, tapping out the rhythm was little nods of her head. She could almost hear it in her brain as she did but tried to keep listening to the conversation. "You don't have to ask me twice," Jo said in response to Liv saying they should meet up. "The more time I'm out of my house, the better." It wasn't like her parents were some horrible people are something, but their relationship just seemed a lot better when there was distance between them. Though they also didn't quite get the whole "band thing" but Jo didn't have to mention what friends' house she was going to.
She listened to Roxie and Liv talking for a moment, still nodding along to the music in her head. "Man, you guys've got all the connections," she said with a small laugh. At home, she wasn't really in the same circles as people who had their own recording studios. She couldn't help but notice the deep flush that appeared over Roxie's cheeks at the mention of having music of her own. Now she was really curious as to what those songs were about.

It had been a long, stressful year already, and school was only half over. But Winter Break was getting closer and Ella had so much to do before then. Radovan had sent a letter and a poem, asking her to help convert it into a song. That, she was happy to do. And then Ivona did something similar, sending a song she liked and asking Ella to help with changing octaves. But amidst all of that, Ella still had to figure out how she wanted to honor the couple! After all, Linsey was her big sister and Serghei was already her big brother (which... was confusing, if not for her specific circumstance).
Having stopped by the library, Ella walked to the music room, her arms laden down with books on poetry, music theory, and several songbooks. Once she made it to the music room, she couldn't help but sigh in relief when she discovered the room was empty. She set her books on a small table, then pushed it over beside the piano. This was likely where she'd be for the next several hours. From her music bag, Ella pulled out the poem sent by Radovan and a blank page of music lines. "Okay, Ella. Let's do this." She said softly, flipping open one of the music theory books. Maybe that would help? Her fingers played over the piano keys, trying to think of a rhythm that worked. If nothing else, her name could be added as a footnote behind her brother. It may make Linsey sad, but at least it wouldn't amount in everyone messing up.

Gryffindor │ Sixth Year │ Sixteen Years Old │ Gryffindor Prefect │ Single
When Finn suggested a break from studying for OWLs, Rey was more than eager for a break. After finding her in a quiet corner of the library, surrounded by notes and books, the ginger-haired Sixth Year and his girlfriend were soon walking to the Music Room. Happy to see the guitar cases and the violin case, Rey offered to carry one of the cases, so Finn wasn’t so encumbered by the load. While Rey couldn’t play a note, she was a credible singer, and she enjoyed singing along with whatever Finn picked out to play.
Rey was wearing a long skirt with an autumnal pattern on coloured leaves with a black short-sleeved sweater with a sweetheart neckline, with a rust-coloured cardi sweater over top, and a pair of warm, wool-lined slipper shoes, while Finn was wearing black pants over an olive-coloured wooly-pully and a dress shirt. Carrying one of the cases, Rey had an arm wrapped around one of Finn’s as they walked along.
Finn was glad to see the smile on Rey’s face, knowing how stressed she was studying for her exams. Any spare moments she had were spent preparing for OWLs; he knew she was deathly afraid of flunking and had nightmares about the tests. Any effort applied in making this year more livable for Rey was effort well-spent so far as he was concerned. He wasn’t afraid to admit he needed the break as well, as he was taking Apparation training, Animagus training, and the multiplicity of Cursebreaking classes he needed to graduate on time next year.
Walking into the Music Room, they saw they weren’t the only ones present. This wasn’t uncommon, as there were always students using the space as a place to jam. However, today it was Ella with a stack of books on a table by the piano. “Ells, what yer be doin’ wif all thot? Studyin’ fer the Music NEWT, are ye?”

xxxxx❀ Wʜᴀᴛ's Iɴsɪᴅᴇ Mʏ Hᴇᴀᴅ? I can't disappoint everyone!
While Ella was halfway between her notebook and a heavy tome on music theory, her sensitive ears heard the doors open. Her first instinct was to duck, but after a second, she peeked over the piano. Thank goodness it was Finn and Rey, since they likely wouldn't use the piano. She still had so much work to do! She let out a soft sigh when her cousin spoke, asking what she was doing with the pile of books. "Oh, no. I-I haven't had time to study for NEWTs yet. Well, I have a little.. but no, I've been busy." Busy helping everyone else, anyway. Well, that and practicing her Animagus magic, though that was more so she could make sure she didn't get stuck somewhere as a mouse.... That'd be bad.
"It's mostly to do with Linsey's wedding. See, I'm trying to finish all the tasks that Linsey asked, but also Serghei wanted to surprise her with some artwork, Milan needed help with embroidering accents on Serghei's suit, Bieito needed help with the lacework for Linsey's dress, Doamnă Antonov asked me to sew her a nice dress, she also wants me to adjust octaves on this song, and Radovan needed help in turning this poem into sheet music with enough time to practice before the wedding. And I don't have enough days!" The normally quiet teen spilled everything out, her stress overriding her normal desire to keep everything tucked inside. She pulled on her hair a bit, her stress causing her to want to hide for a while, but her family obligation making her need to focus on everything.

Finn and Rey set the instrument cases down as they talked to Ella, with Rey being astonished at the idea of not having time to prepare for NEWTs, though she could understand. “ know what you mean, Ella. Between classes, helping Seph run Quidditch practices, and assisting Alice with the Culinary Club, I’m studying for OWLs every chance I get. There’s days I get so lost, I don’t know where I am or what I’m doing or why I’m doing it. I’ve completely forgotten to eat; I’ve been so busy. Finn just rescued me from the library. I can only guess what NEWTs will be like; worse, I suppose,”
As Ella vented the contents of her to-do list, Finn walked over and hugged her, sensing how stressed out she was. “Easy does it, Ells, you need to breathe,” he said to her gently. “Canna believe Linz would put that much upon yer shoulders; not already knowin’ what ya got goin’ with school an’ all. Canna believe she’d let the others add to it either.” Saying it out loud, told Finn that either the others didn’t tell Linsey what they were doing, or that Ella shared Linsey’s inability to refuse a request for aid from those she cares about. ’Or maybe a bit o’ both,’ he added to himself.
“I’m barely guid enough to sew on a button,” confessed Finn; his mother made certain he knew how to do certain household tasks without magic. “but, we can maybe help with the last bits of yer list.” Rey pulled up a bench and sat down beside Ella, pulling her legs up so her chin rested on her knees, while her long skirt pooled over and around her legs. With an encouraging tone, Rey said brightly, “Yeah, changing octaves isn’t so hard. Ye jus’ hafta work out what’s comfortable and manageable. We can sing it out, an’ find wot works.”
Finn nodded, and said affirmingly, “Aye, truth enough there, Rey, an as fer yon poem. If Radovan’s already written it out, he’s done half the work fer ye already. Simple matter of workin’ out the tune.” As he was speaking, the Sixth Year was opening one of the cases and taking his beloved six-string guitar out. He sat down on the bench by Rey’s feet and gestured towards all the books that Ella had out, and added, “Dinnae ken wot you be thinkin’ ye be needin’ yon textbooks fer there, Ells. Oh, keep the sheet music, you’ll need thot fer the end te be sure, but the rest? Yer makin’ music, lass, not writin’ Alchemy proofs; all ye need fer that is yer ear, your heart an’ yer soul.”

xxxx❀ Wʜᴀᴛ's Gᴏɪɴɢ Oɴ? Trying to do too much!
xxxxx❀ Wʜᴀᴛ's Iɴsɪᴅᴇ Mʏ Hᴇᴀᴅ? I can't disappoint everyone do this! When Rey noted that she was busy with studies, clubs, classes, and quidditch, Ella offered a bit of a sad look. "I haven't even got that much from school," She hadn't been chosen as a prefect (despite Linsey's insistence), she could barely fly let alone play quidditch, and though she had a club, they met once monthly... and she hadn't read the book for this month yet. The older girl sighed softly, wishing she could take some off Rey's busy plate. "I suppose they're harder. I-I'll study more after break." Her words sounded more like a shaky promise than a confident answer, but she simply didn't know. Maybe it would be easier if she had any inkling of what she wanted to do after graduation. After she explained everything still on her to-do list, Finn told her to breathe. Obediently, she drew in a deep breath. He questioned Linsey putting all this on her shoulders, or letting others add to it. "N-no, she doesn't know about most of it. She gave me a few things, which would be easy to complete, but everyone else... I think is doing it in secret of Linsey and Serghei. Milan said I'm his best embroiderer and he doesn't want to send to a shop if possible, Bieito wants me to have a hand in Linsey's dress, Radovan's music is to be a surprise from both halves the couple, Madam Antonov, I think, wants to feel included, but she's too hesitant to ask Linsey or Milan, so I'm next best. Mum and Dad just want me to focus on school, but I can't right now." She wiped at her eyes, looking over when Finn said they could help with the musical parts of the list. Rey agreed, saying octave changes weren't so hard, allowing Ella to relax a bit. "She sings soprano and the song she chose is set in an alto pitch, so it would just bring the notes up, but so would the piano piece, which I'm trying to figure out." And Finn said that for Radovan's piece, it would be a matter of working up a tune. He joined them on the bench, then said Ella didn't need all those books. Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment when he said she just needed was her ear and a bit of heart. "I don't know how to do any of that, really. I only learned piano on dusty old books. I'm not sure I can do this.... but I suppose we can try, right?" She nodded, trying to summon all her confidence as she moved her hands to the keys. She'd read the words countless times, so now was just finding accompaniment, right? With a breath, she closed her eyes, starting up a tune while she hummed the words along. Ordinary - Piano Version

Rey was amazed at the idea that Ella was waiting until after the wedding to really start work on her NEWTs, as she started reading during the summer, when she wasn’t otherwise occupied. “I couldn’t imagine starting so late, but I know you’re busy with, like, everything else too. Sounds like you have a job already lined up after graduation, if you’ve got people who say you’re that good at what you do. I hope I’m as lucky as you when I get out of school. I know what I need to get for my exams; I need to get straight ‘O’s on almost everything to be one of Marni’s helpers in the Hospital Wing,” said the little redhaired Fifth Year feelingly.
Seeing Ella crying was a gut-punch for Finn, Rey crying had the same effect on him also, and he said, “Ells, I can borrow a school owl and send a message to Linsey and Serghei tonight, if you want me to. They’ll put a stop to this, find a better way to get all this done. Nobody wants you to get stressed and sick and end up in Hospital.” Finn looked at his cousin with a feeling of needing to do something to make it better for Ella. He passed the sheet music off to Rey, so she could work out how to convert an alto piece into a soprano, as he knew the little Fifth Year could read music as readily as he.
“I’ve never really had that sort of book-learning. The other Hares, Mum and Dad, taught me the chords and went from there. I was always taught that music comes from the heart and soul, and the books are good references, but not when one is creating something new,” he observed. He listened to the piano piece that Ella started playing, paying close attention to the chords she was playing, and decided to set the guitar aside and take up his violin. When Ella was done, he started working out his own interpretation of what she played, ‘Ordinary.’
When he was done, he set aside the violin and suggested, “Maybe a duet?” Finn smiled, and added, “I’ve been working up my own bit for the wedding as well. You both get to hear it for the first time. Mind you, it’ll sound better when we have the whole band backing me up, but here it goes.” He traded his violin for his guitar, and Rey set aside the music and wrapped her arms about her legs as she sat on the bench and listened to ‘I dreamed Last Night,’ as Finn looked into her blue eyes.

Ella felt a wave of shame when Rey said she couldn't imagine starting studies for exams so late. She knew her parents would be disappointed if they found out she'd been delaying her extra studies, but she wasn't sure what else to do. It wasn't like she could just forget sleep forever, right? And then Rey made her feel worse when she commented on Ella knowing what she was doing after school, even calling her lucky about it. "I don't have anything set after school," she confessed quietly, feeling even worse as she did. All she had right now were other peoples' suggestions, none of which she felt confident enough to do.
Ella wiped her eyes, looking sadly at Finn when he said he could borrow an owl to send word to Linsey and Serghei about her overwhelming list of tasks. "N-no! I can't do that. I can't ruin all the surprises and make things harder on them. It's okay. I can figure it out, I promise." She nodded, though she didn't look anywhere near confident about that. Finn gave Rey the sheet music for Madam Antonov, allowing her to start working. Finn said he'd never learned by books, and instead got taught. "I used books because I wasn't technically allowed to touch the piano. So I had small blocks to play while everyone was out of the house." A flush colored her cheeks, with Ella fiddling with her sleeve.
She listened as Finn played, quickly writing down the notes they had so far. If they combined them, it might be lovely. They could play together, and paired with Radovan's deep voice, the song would be really beautiful. Finn suggested a duet and Ella nodded, then tilted her head as her cousin said he'd been working on his own song for the wedding, and that they'd get to hear it for the first time. She watched as he strummed a song, clearly for Rey. It was lovely, especially as a love song. Of course, Ella couldn't help but feel a little bit awkward that Finn was singing such a romantic song to his girlfriend. "That was really lovely, Finn. I'm sure it'll sound great. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to play, but... I'm sure I'll figure it out." Right now, she was way too busy fixing music for everyone else. It didn't help that she really didn't know all too many love songs.

Both Rey and Finn were thunderstruck by Ella’s whispered revelation of how she had nothing planned after graduation. “Ella, surely that can’t be. You just said you were Milan’s best embroiderer, better even than Linsey, I shouldn’t wonder, and the brothers are trusting you to do the work on Miss Linsey’s weddin’ dress. Thot’s pretty important bit o’ work, I shouldn’t wunder.” Finn added, “Aye, that be truth enough. We thought you and Linz got everythin’ already worked oot. She’s buildin’ her label an’ all, jus’ waitin’ fer the final bit, bein’ you, te cross yon Black Lake, an' take yer place at her side.” To him and Rey, it just couldn’t be right that Ella had nothing waiting for her. Rey had aspirations of being a Healer and an aid to lost souls, as she’d been before the Heulwens took her in, while he planned to be a conflict historian and a mystical Celtic archeologist.
When Ella refused his suggestion of sending an owl home, and assured him, while snuffling back tears, she could do what was asked of her, Finn hugged her, and assured, “All right, all right, nae owl then. If’n ye say you have it, then ye do, Ells. Jus’ promise if’n ye do need a bit o’ help, jus’ say so. We’re all Greys, lass, we stick together; it’s wha’ we doo.” As Ella mentioned how she learned the piano, he was struck not for the first time by how little he knew of her time before she arrived on the train with Linz, when she was consigned to some level of Tartarus, with Old Scratch himself cast in the form of her father. “An’ now ye have the time an’ space, an’ a piano te play whenever ye please. Promise ye, the piano’ll get rolled oot of the studio fer ye for the party after Midnight Mass. An’ ooh knows, we might make a ‘Hare or a Mad Rabbit oot o’ ye yet.”
The thought of Ella playing piano, with him on violin as accompanist, and someone with a nice tenor voice handling vocals, appealed greatly to Finn, who smiled as he watched Ella quickly jotting down notes as he played them; never mind it was just a first pass at it, and he was merely improvising and working out what he could do based on what she just played. He smiled as he sang his own song, seeing the look in Rey’s beautiful blue eyes as she listened. When he was done, he caressed the side of her face before leaning in to kiss Rey gently.
“Well, thank ye, Ells,” said Finn appreciatively, with a nod replacing a bow. “As I said, when the rest o’ the band be added, it’ll sound more … complete.” Listening to Ella, Finn glanced at Rey and nodded his head in Ella’s direction. Rey smiled, nodded, and settled in to stay put. “How aboot, we figure oot together, Ells? Burden shared an’ all thot.”
