wintery visits

[peterxy]

 So it goes.

Sadde doesn't come up with a good idea for a club for most Slytherins. Their intersecting interests seem to lie in the vicinity of "Pureblood club" and that's something Sadde will not support. They haven't managed to befriend all firsties, but their consistent association with the Ravenclaws coupled with helping people out pretty consistently has gotten most people to give them the benefit of the doubt. The trickster-ish streak does mean people are a bit confused about them, though.

Older Slytherins are still pretty resolutely against Sadde, but that's not too bad, and it's only been three and a half months.

(Also, Sadde has managed to not ask Miranda about her plans for a month and a half. Even if the curiosity is eating them inside.)

And Winter Holidays are next week.

"What was that?" asks Sadde, who does not read Miranda's notebooks.

[chanuphis]

"Getting a spell I'd been looking forward to doing to work. The hair-braiding one."

[mrwoods]

"Ooh. Let me try something like that..." Try. Nothing. "Hm."

[chanuphis]

"What'd you try?"

[mrwoods]

"Getting Alohomora to work. Though I guess I hadn't really had a story of wanting it to work for a long time before doing it, it's just been the hardest one so far."

[chanuphis]

"What were you unlocking?"

[mrwoods]

"...nothing?" he tries.

[chanuphis]

"Then how do you know it worked?"

[mrwoods]

"Because... the nothing was... not locked after I did it?"

[chanuphis]

[mrwoods]

[chanuphis]

"I suppose you don't have to tell me."

[mrwoods]

He shrugs. "I have a feeling that not telling you things is not a good way to go around you."

[chanuphis]

"It would not generate me a particularly good quality Patronus mist or anything."

[mrwoods]

He grins. "After the panties incident, Arens started locking his trunk. I think he figured a simple Colloportus would be enough to stop the inept muggle firsty."

[chanuphis]

"And what did you do when it was not enough to stop you?"

[mrwoods]

"I left a note inside it saying that he'd never find what I took, without taking anything."

[chanuphis]

"...Okay, that one I kind of like."

[mrwoods]

He giggles. "It took him weeks to figure it out, it was hilarious."

[chanuphis]

"Did he get you back?"

[mrwoods]

"He tried it several times during those weeks, but he's not the most creative of Slytherins and apparently can't imagine a way to get revenge on someone without hexing them. And I think he's still not totally sure I didn't actually take anything."

[chanuphis]

"Well, it'd be hard to confirm either way."

[mrwoods]

"Yep! I'm pretty proud of that one. Also, see, I'm not only just pranking older years, I'm even being kinder about my pranks!"

[chanuphis]

"Well, you're getting more psychological, I'm not sure if that's the same thing."

[mrwoods]

"Po-tay-to, po-tah-to."
