Aoife liked the sound of Ukraine and decided that in the future she might visit it. She listened with a smile on her face as Lyubov described her home it really did sound lovely. Throwing her hands out behind her Aoife craned her neck back and watched a little anxiously as Oliver climbed up the tree, as though waiting for him to fall. She had to remind herself that not everyone was as accident prone as her.
”Does anyone want any chips?
“Chips?”
At first Aoife was a little confused but then she remembered she was in America.
“Oh you mean crisps! Sure, why not?”
Aoife appreciated Lyubov’s other to help her the only problem was Aoife didn’t know where to start. Which spell did she have problems with? There were far too many for Aoife to admit. She remembered she had quite a bit of trouble with Scribblifors and this is what she told the older girl.
“But I don’t think we have anything to practice on…”
As she spoke Aoife began pulling out some parchment and quills out of her backpack. It really was far too nice a day to study but when did anyone say life was fair?
Marissa Toladaeri was having a bad day. In the very early hours of the morning she had woken up from a terrible dream. She had been at the Battle of Mount Badon, where historically King Arthur... more
Was study hall really a subject? Monet couldn’t help wondering this as she walked into the Reference Centre. What were they expected to do? Homework? Monet had got in to the habit of finishing all... more
*smirks* Tucker Brogren, Aquila,Sat Mar 31 17:50
Tucker didn't really like study hall. First of all, he didn't really enjoy studying period. Or sitting still and being quiet. Further more, it just another time that someone was telling him to be in... more
Danielle didn't quite know why she was here in the first place. Not here as in just Study Hall, but here as in school. She'd liked it at first but now she just plain hated the place. All they did was ... more
Tucker grinned. There was something about this girl that screamed pureblood princess. Something about how she carried herself. Not just a girly girl like Melinda, more like Alison's roommate or... more
One of Zakir’s least favorite activities out of an admittedly long list was study hall. For such a studious child study hall should have been a boon, a free two hours twice a week to devote to his... more
Study hall. It was the life sucking enemy of kids the world over. Even here, in a school dedicated to magic and mystery the evil had hooked its sleep inducing claws into the poor defenseless kidlets. ... more
Zakir’s dark mood at having his routine altered darkened further when he saw the grinning mudblood. Somehow he’d managed to avoid the always smiling boy last term, but apparently this term he... more
Aerin flat out couldn’t cope with study hall – she was unable to sit still and do work for such a long period of time. The second-year worked best when she multitasked and took multiple short breaks... more
To Seth’s absolute delight, Zakie actually looked up at his question and his fingers dipped easily into the distracted Pureblood’s pocket. Score! he thought gleefully when he fished out a pair of... more
Any thought of the truce was obliterated when Aerin appeared and the first words out of her mouth were “ Some people call him ZakAttack. Hey guys! How’s it going?” Her hyper voice that gave the idiot ... more
Aerin was shocked by Zakir’s harsh, cold tone. She had thought things had been going so well between them. She sat still, staring at the older boy, hardly hearing his words but taking in his body... more
Seth was just about to say that he hadn’t touched Zakir, and that the purebred must have imagined it, when Aerin suddenly stood up with enough force to send her chair crashing backwards. The large... more
Zakir was glaring harshly at Seth, furious at being touched when the loud crash made his heart leap into his throat as he jolted half way out of his chair. For a moment the thunder of churning hooves ... more
Aerin wasn’t one to stay angry for long. Her attention span didn’t allow it. She was still seething when a small part of her woke up and decided it was tired of being angry. By the time she got to... more
Success! Seth thought gleefully as he managed to snag the hair tie while Aerin was distracted. Her apparent annoyance at the two boys seemed to fade as she laughed at his antics instead of yelling at ... more
Slender dark fingers rolled up the ruined assignment. He would have to re-write it tomorrow during breakfast. Mentally he began reshuffling his work load to accommodate the unexpected as he slipped... more
Aerin focused fiercely on her blank parchment as the inkbottle cap rolled away from her. She struggled to keep her face still as her entire being focused on Zakir’s reaction. The cap stopped. He... more
Seth rolled his eyes at Aerin when she gave the stuck up Purebreed a sappy look. Why did girls go for guys like him anyway? It was crazy, Zak-a-Jerk had been nothing but mean to her every time Seth... more
He watched the cap slowly return to its proper owner when Aerin picked it up and gave him a large smile, and oddly enough thanked him. “You’re welcome.” He said, somewhat hesitantly, unsure of how to ... more
In conclusion…. Aerin saw Zakir jump slightly from the corner of her eye. Weird. In conclusion, it is necessary…. Again, he shifted in his seat. Aerin ignored him once more and kept writing. In... more
It was difficult to catch his breath from laughing so hard, even though he could feel the sharp stabbing pain in his forehead where the Purebreed’s spell had struck. Gingerly he reached up and poked... more
Marissa had just finished off an order for new books when her house elf Ferby had appeared in the room distraught and trembling. As soon as the word ‘fight’ left his lips, the librarian had been on... more
Seth scowled when Aerin actually began telling the librarian what really happened… in a meandering sort of way. There were enough holes in her story that he might be able to get them out of this. It... more
Ugh, Studying. Oliver DiCaprio [Aquila],Wed Mar 28 16:28
Oliver had not been to the library very often and had been appalled when he found out that he would be forced to spend at least an hour or so there. As a result, he was in a bad mood and disliked the ... more
Study Hall was, in Lyubov’s opinion, one of the best times of the day. The third-year worked hard in her classes and generally finished most of her homework during class time, so Study Hall was an... more
Aoife wasn’t looking forward to studying. She was dreading it. For some reason Aoife found studying almost impossible. No matter how hard she tried she always got distracted by something or another... more
Oliver was delighted when two people, an older girl and his new partner-in-crime, agreed to go with him. He grinned at them both. "Yes!" he said, quietly. "It is a nice day outside. It would be a... more
Another girl at their table spoke up soon after herself, agreeing to come outside with them. Lyubov returned her smile. The more the merrier! The more she thought about it, the more going outside... more
“Looo-boff, Is that it? ”Aoife repeated the older students name to familiarise herself with it. She had a strange name herself and it was a little annoying when people spelt it wrong. The smile on... more
"Loo-boff, Loo-boff. Got it. Sorry." Oliver smiled apologetically. He was sure he wasn't the only one who had ever asked her, but it was a hard name to pronounce on the first try. He was pretty happy ... more
She smiled and waved off Oliver's apology. "It's okay! And yes, that's how you say it," she added with a nod to Aoife. If she was American, she would have probably asked Aoife to repeat her name as... more
Me too, after all violence is never the answer. Aoife,Tue Apr 3 15:13
Ukraine sounded like a cool place. Art everywhere would be so cool. Going to places like Long Beach where they had art festivals was cool enough, but he could hardly imagine living in a sort of... more
“Oh, Scribblifors!” Lyubov exclaimed. It had been a fairly easy spell to learn. She had always had a talent for Transfiguring things, and all the spells they were taught that involved a changing in... more
“Yes, that’s what we call them back home. We call French fries chips.” Aoife said in answer to her friend’s question. It was funny she couldn’t help but think that she still saw Ireland as home, when ... more
