WESLEYwelsey woke up to the sound of snores, henry and mucas. they were annoyingly loud, he didn't even believe how he fell asleep. then again, she was a heavy sleeper. unlike clark, who seemed to already get out, which was no wonder. if welsey were up, he wouldn't stay in here for a second. he could even see druel coming out of there mouths like in the animated tv shows, it was disgusting. wes quickly got dressed and headed down to the great hall for some breakfast, expecting his best friend to already be there. while going down the staircase, he spotted clark, but he was with two griffindors, which was fairly unusual. one thing he hated about this school was, that they had this status quo that everyone follow. hufflepuff only talk to hufflepuff. griffindors with griffindors. the only thing most had in common is that they really didn't bother to socialize with the slytherins. mostly because of what happened with the boy who lived and all. he knew that because he read books a lot. it was a surprise he had been placed in hufflepuff. wes was happy though, he met his best friend here. he knew that ravenclaw would have been nice as well, he liked elle, that was why. it was awkward, elle was his best friends step-sister.
WESLEYwes came up to clark, it seemed he fell asleep on the window sill. "um, hey." he said to his friend and the two guys who were surrounding him.

it was mornings that alex hated the most. whenever she had to wake early, her brain was usually set in a gentle dream that had her easily drifting away. yeah. right. this morning, though, she obviously had to be woken up by the thing she hated most: claws. all she was doing was snoozing on her stomach, dreaming about the day where she became headmaster of Hogwarts when she felt sharp studs on her back, creeping up to her head, getting caught in her long brown hair that was fanned around her head. then, suddenly, a croaky meow that usually soothed alex on sad days caused a groan to escape from her mouth. "star! are you serious?" alex complained, rolling over. star let out a quiet screech as she tumbled off of her owner's back and onto her soft sheets of the bed. the white cat fumbled with the groping blankets for a few more moments before staring at alex and plopping down in defeat. "serves you right," she mumbled in a half snort, half laugh. then her eyes caught hold of the alarm clock and her eyes widened.
"seven-thirty? ugh, are you kidding? I'm late for breakfast!" she cried, scrambling up. she stumbled over to her closet, eyes still blurry from sleep, and pulled out her outfit for the day; nice, comfy yoga pants and a white blouse. she glanced around, noticing leah was still sleeping. alex rolled her eyes and fixed her hair in the mirror. the style she was going to wear today was practically boring, but spunky. her hair was flowing around her shoulders and shirt, her natural, soft waves tumbling down. she applied her face cream to her already clear, baby soft face and added some mascara and eye-liner to her lids and lashes.
"all ready!" she chirped, finally starting to wake. glancing around, alex came across a circular pillow and watched leah sleep for a moment, looking all peaceful in her bed. trying to contain a laugh as she flung the pillow at the girl's head, she failed miserably and skipped out of the room with a few books in her hand. star made a strangled sound and bounded out of the girl's dorm after her owner. alex glanced around, noticing a couple of the guys had exited the common room recently. alex was relating to the strewn books, a couple of knocked over pillows and a recently sat on couch. sighing, alexis brushed a lock of her hair from her face and went to exit the common room. the stairs in the morning usually didn't move as much, and all was slightly quiet this morning as she casually walked down the hallway towards the great hall. she heard muffled voices around the corner and slowly peeked around it. two or three guys, a couple recognized as drew and george, stood around a sixth year boy who was snoozing on the window sill.
she held in a laugh and narrowed her eyes as they watched him. she passed around the corner and stopped behind them. "enjoying a little show? you guys, you can't just watch him sleep. that's totally stalkerish," she chuckled, half-smiling at George before walking over to the guy sleeping and nudging him with her books. "dude, wake up! looks like you fell asleep here. you okay?" before he could fully wake up and respond, she walked away, into the great hall. spotting rooney, who was a slytherin, she smiled and walked up.
"hey! what a morning this is, don't ya think?" she greeted, setting her books down beside rooney's. okay, so what if she was in another house? rooney was nice, and didn't have many friends outside of other houses. but alex liked rooney and thought she was pretty fun. she bit into the muffin she had just grabbed and waited.

early mornings in the ravenclaw common room were usually quiet, tempting. at least that's what it was like this morning. luke blinked his eyes open, glancing around. hardly anyone was laying in their beds, except a few younger boys he hardly even knew. the sixth year sat up in bed to the familiar hooting of his owl, gizmo. the bird's ruffled brown and white feathers were warmly familiar to luke. the owl fluffed up his wings and just spun his head to look out the window, where wind was knocking against the pane. lucas was definitely a morning person. usually he would wake up earlier to take a stroll around the courtyards while eating a piece of toast or fruit that he would pick up from the great hall. maybe that's where he would go today.
shrugging his shoulders into a grey t-shirt and pulling on some jeans, luke spun on his heel and walked down the spiraling stairs to the common room, glancing around. there was hardly anyone hear, and the common room was absolutely empty. he guessed ravenclaws were definitely the early risers, since most of the other houses seem to be sleeping on this day. the teenage boy slipped into some shoes and let out a sigh. it definitely seemed necessary on this day to walk in the court yard and to the clock tower. for all he knew, no one walked up there so it would give him some peace and quiet. but his curiosity broke into thinking if he'll see any of his fellow house mates up there. he definitely doubted it, though.
heaving a sigh, he jogged down the moving stairs before they moved anywhere he wouldn't want to go, moving in the familiar direction of the courtyard. his legs moved in a pace that was half slow, half quick in a certain way. his hair was still a bit messy, so he moved his right hand over his blond hair and ruffled and neatened it slightly, to make it look natural. as he exited the castle and entered the courtyard, he smirked and breathed in the fresh air, feeling the cool wind cut through his clothes and mess up his hair again. his eyes fell on the clock tower, and strangely he spotted a shadow moving near the loud, moving hands. luke narrowed his eyes and shifted his feet, considering, before he rolled his eyes and hurried up the winding stairs he was now so easily used to taking every day. a familiar figure stood not too far away from the entrance, and his eyes settled upon the girl from his house; elle. he chuckled quietly and walked over to her, hands in the pockets of his jeans. "hey, elle. what are you doing up here?" he asked, shifting on his feet. he never really talked to her as much as you would think. they were friends, but he never really spoke to her like they were close. buddies, he guessed.

converse; analeigh is sitting next to rooney. just so you know, it wasn't mentioned in the post. anyways, don't they have big tables acording to house?

xxxxxxxxxxx↷ ♕ ＳＡＲＡＨ ＭＡＲＩＡ ＢＬＡＫＥＬＹ

➸ ｂｅ ｃａｒｅｆｕｌ ｗｈａｔ ｙｏｕ ｗｉｓｈ ｆｏｒ

xxxxxxxxxxxSarah stirred when she heard movement in the room. Her eyes fluttered open for a brief moment, but they closed just as quickly. It was most likely nothing but her prim roommates rummaging through their wardrobes, getting ready for the day. Thus, Sarah turned over pulling her ever so comfortable blanket halfway over her head, giving into a welcoming slumber. To Sarah's dismay, her rest was yet again disturbed by someone else. This time her wakeup call came from Lila, the grey young cat she had brought to Hogwarts. Sarah groaned and pulled her pillow over her head as an attempt to block out any other disturbances. Despite Sarah's reluctance, the persistant cat trotted up to her hand and started nudging it. Unfortunately, the cat was victorious and was able to get Sarah to rise from the bed, muttering to herself that she should have never let her pet sleep on her bed. Yawning and stretching, the sluggish blonde trudged over to her trunk and opened it. As old as it was, it creaked, and she could only hope the noise did not wake Tori, the last wizard still asleep. Silently, Sarah pulled out her everyday attire along with a forest green scarf to match. Once she was dressed and ready, she finished off her outfit with a pair of pastel green shoes to match. Glancing down at her choice, Sarah admired how she was clad in her house's colors, radiating a sort of team spirit. "Slytherian for the win," she whispered to herself with a small smile before exiting the room.
xxxxxxxxxxxIt was not long before the pureblood reached the Great Hall. She passed a few familiar faces along the way, but she did not bother to greet anyone because they were either acquaintances from Slytherin or classmates from other houses. Honestly, Sarah found a hard time making friends outside of her house to the point she simply did not bother anymore. Besides, it wasn't like anyone cared for her house either. Others assumed Slytherians were so devious they would do anything to get what they want. That was occasionally true, but that did not mean they had to be treated like poisonous snakes. At least that's how Sarah felt. Then again, the hypocritical pureblood felt pretty lowly about the other houses, too. Hufflepuffs were a little too easygoing and friendly for sophisticated blonde's tastes. As for Ravenclaw, some of the members were alright, but Sarah never seemed to fit in with them. Last of all, there was Gryffindor. It was no secret she disliked them the most as they were always thinking so highly of themselves. Like many others, Sarah believed the stereotypes, too, and not to mention often feeling a pang of jealous when other houses beat Slytherian at quidditch to test scores. Maybe her grudges were somewhat due to the fact many were not born to pureblood wizards. Wasn't that what pulled her and Elle apart, too?
xxxxxxxxxxxSarah pushed away the thought, reassuring herself it was the best that they cut their ties. If they had not, there was no doubt the blonde would be the Slytherian laughingstock as it was an unwritten rule that pureblood Slytherians and muggle born wizards could not be friends. Her mind eventually drifted away and focused on Jake, which had been on her mind for the last couple of hours. Since they were paired up together in class only a few days ago, Sarah got the strange feeling she was attracted to him, and only today did she admit she might have a teeny tiny crush on him. Proving this, the first person she searched for in the Great Hall was Jake, but he was nowhere to be found among the scattered shades greens and silvers. Sighing in defeat, she realized she should have been looking for her best friend, Oscar, for it was rare they didn't sit together. The lovesick blonde felt bad for not searching for him first; at this moment, she understood why some people ended up forgetting or leaving their family and friends for a lover. However, Sarah knew she would never do anything like that. If she had to choose between Jake or Oscar, there was no doubt Sarah would choose to stay with her best friend. She could only hope he felt the same way. It would be heartbreaking if he ended there friendship for someone like, say, Elle.
xxxxxxxxxxxSpotting Oscar scarfing down his breakfast, a soft smile crossed her face, and she made her way over to the table. In addition, Darragh and Annie, other friends, were feasting at the table, too, and although she wasn't all that close with her, Sarah was also glad to see her roommate, Rooney, there as well. There was another face, a Gryffindor to be particular, she thought she knew, but she simply could not place a name. It must've started with an "A," though... Or, perhaps, an "N." "'Mornin'," she greeted those sitting at the table, taking a seat among the others.


{ shay & converse: oscar, according to rooney's post, and darragh are there, too. c;
shay: not that it matters now, but i meant the guys are at the table, too - not sitting next to rooney as to say to be aware of them, too. sorry for my terrible wording earlier. :p }

[shay ;]

but they are in the middle of the table, according to my post, she sat right next to her bestie and i don't get it... c;

[- converse.]

{{. Sorry for the confusion. She said "Hey." to everyone at the table, not just Rooney. And there's also two spots to be sat in beside her. And for Alexis, she doesn't really care where she's supposed to sit. She sits wherever she wants, whether she's Slytherin or not. So it doesn't matter. I'm sorry if you didn't get it. c;

[shay ;]

aahhhh, she didn't really notice anna though. whateves, i guess.

{{. Oh! I'm sorry! Just act like she's talking to her too...because technically she did. c: .}}

{{ is clark hilarious or something? he's got like four people staring at him xD this is so adorable.

-----elle liked being alone sometimes. sometimes it gave her time to think these over and gather understandings without interuptions, or sometimes it was just comforting. but sometimes it was... lonely. obviously so. being by yourself more often than not made you crave human interaction, and elle was no introvert. she was definitely a people person. she was beginning to think it was books' fault that she was turning into a girl who preferred the boring of quiet rather than the excitement of company.
-----the wind whipped at her hair violently. the less she paid the harsh weather any attention, she swore, the stronger the winds became and the more chilling the fog rested apon her skin. it wasn't usually this cold during spring, but so it seemed, the sky must know of the unfortunate settings outside the hogwarts castle walls. it truly was saddening, what was going on, and elle didn't know which side was right. the supernatural had every right to be upset and long for more recognition in this world, but trying to take over and attack like this? it was wronger than wrong, if that made any sense at all.
-----elle heard a voice over the light howling of the wind. her cheekbones rose up as she smiled, greeting robbie, her fellow ravenclaw and roommate, with a, "hey robbie! of course not, sit." elle scooted over just a bit to make room for the curly haired brunette, taking this chance to wrap hersef up tighter in her cloak and sweater. elle was starting to wonder why she even came out here in the first place. but she guessed she couldn't be too crazy. robbie seemed to have the same idea, and she was one of the smartest girls in this school that she knew of. and granted, elle didn't know a whole lot of people, but she watched a lot of what went on around her. she knew of many, many people.
-----"transfiguration. professor mcgonagall, i swere it, she's gone crazy with quizzes this year." elle gave a small, breathless laugh, shaking her head while doing so. she looked at the books robbie was holding against her. her forearm was covering one of the titles. "what about you?" elle turned her eyes up from her books and onto her face. robbie had a face of unagnowleged beauty. elle found it to spark a pang of jealousy down in her chest. she felt like blurting out then and there of her brother's feelings for her friend, but she bit her tongue. she was no match maker and this was none of her business.
-----caught off guard, she didn't see luke walking up to them until he was standing right there, hands in his... jeans? there was a dress code. he was a sixth year so he must have known that. maybe he was just in a bad boy phase? elle didn't know, but she found it awful rude that he didn't agnowledge roberta beside her. it would have made since if she were a slytherin or a gryffindor, but robbie was a ravenclaw and her roommate. elle gave the brunette sitting beside her an apologetic look before looking up at luke to answer him. "hey, luke. i'm just studying. with robbie." she made it clear in her tone of voice and the way she lifted her chin up, something she always did when her patience was tested, that she was not alone and that there was another person beside her who deserved to be recognized as... well, there.

-----clark eventually dozed off. it was bound to happen sooner or later. with the quiet of the early morning and him practically being the only one on the grand staircase, it made for a better sleeping arrangement than his actual dorm room. sleep hit him like a stream train out of the night. it covered him like a blanket and he didn't know how long he was asleep for. it was a dreamless sleep. fine by him. he liked no interuptions.
-----time passed fast but clark wasn't aware he had visitors to his little windowsill or watchers. he was enraveled in the darkness and quiet of his head. he didn't wake up when drew approached him. drew had a softness to his voice, even with the echos the grand staircase made with the slightest whisper. him speaking, he had no hope in waking the sixth year hufflepuff up, and clark didn't plan on being woken up anytime soon. not when sophie passed him, not when george came bounding up to say hello to drew, though clark did twitch a little bit, and not when wesley came over as well to see what the whole issue was about, because from an onlooker, it probably did look like something was wrong. and it was. clark was sleep deprived thanks to his roomates.
-----but when alex white, the sixth year of gryffindor came up, vocal chords possible even louder than henry and lucas's snoring, he jumped up immediately, smacking his head against the windowsill. he groaned, rubbing the side of his head through his beanie, and looking up to see a crowd of guys standing around him and alex skipping away to wherever the heck she was going. he stared at them for a moment, not fully processing what the heck was going on, but when he saw a couple girls walk past, snickering at him, well, he eventually caught on. "how long was i asleep for?" he looked at wesley's face, then george's face, then drew's face. they all three had looks of amusement and confusion written all over their faces, and clark could probably imagine his looked just the same.

WESLEYwelsey came over to the group, "hey, i don't think he'll enjoy the crowd once he wakes up." he said, his hands in his pockets. seeing his best friend fall asleep on the windowsill was amusing, but he tried his best not to laugh. the thing he laughed about the most was the party of griffindors surrounding him. george nor drw interupted him, while he slept, but when alex came skipping along, she was louder than his two snoring roommates, unbelievable. neverless, that finally woke clark up, his eyes still faintly closed, he looked around, still a bit drowsy. "how long did i sleep?" clark asked wesley, but he simply raised his shoulders in reply, "i don't know, ask george and drew, they've been watching you for quite a while." he said with a sarcastic smirk on his face. most everyone was laughing silently, no-one wanted to embarress clark anymore. he turned around to see what alex was doing, but it seemed, she had gone to bother someone else.
WESLEYslowly clark seemed to get back to his sences, not as drowsy as before, at least. "dude, you wanna grab some breakfast?" he asked him.

{{ i dunno, i like it. clark, i mean.
