Time spent in hyperspace passes differently- it seems to Dib like he's been away much longer than he actually has been.

He goes to the Popcorn Room first, touches his fingers to Devi's name on the plate. He wanders quietly among the cases, noticing grimly that many more cases and kernels have been added since the last time he was there.

He checks on the suite, but it's empty, and his room is dark and quiet when he enters to drop off his things. There's... some sort of odd -device- in there, in Nny's half of the room, but Dib's not ABOUT to mess with that until he can talk to one of the other suitemembers and find out what it is. He wants to be around people though, so he finishes owls and quick notes to let the others know he's back, then leaves and makes his way to the Great Hall.

He's curious who might be around, interested to pick up bits and pieces of what he might have missed.

((Come bother Dib! He'd like to meet more people. XD))

A little hiatus thing for a week at the most. What with RL (OMG NO!) being really busy and what not, my net access is limited for the time being. It sucks man, but I'll still try to keep up with things when I can get a minute to get online. 
All my chars are being teh emo (especially Anne, yo) and just sitting in their rooms. They can still be reached and all that. So hopefully speak to y'all soon!

Dear Diary

I can't believe how fate constantly chooses to punish me. I have been sorted into hell, yes hell. It is a place of solitude, stinking of loneliness and a pit where I cannot escape from. However, there is no darkness to soothe my pain. The walls, they scream at me with their bright pink. My bed sparkles. The sparkles consume me at night, I find it hard to breath, hard to survive. The constant neighing of the ponies tortures me day in day out. I cannot change it, I cannot escape. I thought that this being a magic school, I could paint the walls with a wand. However, this being a magic school, they are charmed pink. I hear their laughing, their sneering, as I try to huddle in a corner. Even the walls don't understand. I want to go home, but I cannot give up. How uncool would it be if I were to give in to this torture?! My 'friends' would say "We go through real pain, just look at the scars. You are not cool enough!" They would never let me live it down, I would be weak. I am forever in battle with my own emotional turmoil. I need the night time, it doesn't survive here. You are the only one who understands me.

The Great Hall has been decorated appropriately for the Masquerade, many Transfiguration spells cast and the House Elves all on the highest of alerts, currently attired in toga-like napkins. The floor has been changed to white marble, with small green tables of food and drink lining the sides of the walls, interposed with benches and seats for those who'd rather talk than dance.

The majority of the hall is cleared for dancing, with a throne-table at the far end for Fillerbunny to sit and greet his guests, and a small stage on the left side for those who'd like to demonstrate their karaoke skills. On the right side, there's a DJ stand in place of live music.

Behind the throne, a red velvet curtain conceals a balcony that overlooks the garden, quiet and secluded for those who'd rather not leave the party entirely but would like some respite from the noise. The curtain is enchanted to deaden sound, so that nobody from inside the party can eavesdrop on the people on the balcony.

The decorations are in pale green, soft yellow, white, rose pink, and the trimming are in the four House colors.

Party lasts until about 7AM, gametime, and runs for as long as needed IRL. Karaoke goes the same as usual: Post your char going up to sing, along with a yousendit link to the song in question.

((So, yeah, anyone want to fight? Fair warning: anything you've seen from Crowley so far has been kid stuff. He will be vindictive and cruel and will get real personal, real quick. He'll push every one of your character's buttons and generally make them as miserable as humanly possible. And know, too, that if he hurts or upsets your character, makes him or her cry, whatever, he is NOT going to feel guilty about it in any way. You all know he's a bastard, but he's not going to be an amusing bastard this time.))

Anne managed to decamp from the Gryffindor common room with a minimum of fuss, owing much of her luck to the fact that noone knew quite what to expect from Jayne in normal circumstances, much less when he began to walk, talk, and yes... shoot like a girl.
It definitely helped that people tended to avoid Jayne - he, along with a scattered few, wore guns everywhere they went, refusing to give up that piece of thier old lives. And despite herself, Anne was beginning to enjoy the sort of negative attention associated with the weapon. People, as she passed them, gave her hesitant glances, or nervous half-smiles. Admittedly, she was repeatedly cocking and releasing the hammer of the large gun, but she couldn't help herself.

She liked her new body.

Being a girl had always been so difficult... dresses and lace and hypocrisy that clung to her sex like a tenacious suitor, calling at odd hours of the day, never letting her forget that someone was thinking of her at all times. Such a thing could be tolerated (that is, if she'd been given the choice) before, but not now. Not when she could wear pants and a gun and stare at people and say stupid things... and the best part was that noone seemed to think twice of it. She belonged.
It was a strange feeling, too, after having been locked away in the high reaches of Gryffindor tower. It was liberating. Not only were the shackles of her sex removed, but so too were the restrictive terms of her self-exile. Today was a day of new beginnings, of experimentation. Of leaving old things behind and accepting the new with no reservations.
Not once did she pause to wonder what had happened to her old body.

Curiously, no matter how she tried, her old convictions wouldn't abandon her, even with newfound identity and newfound freedom. She didn't mind too horribly much, of course - Anne had always been a firm believer that if you couldn't trust your thoughts and emotions, you couldn't trust anything. It was just that... well... she wished, almost, that she could have forgot Ryuuji.
She sighed inwardly, and scowled at a passing hufflepuff.
There was no excuse now... she had to kill him.

Twitching its hips a wee bit more than it was want to do, Jayne's body walked purpousefully down the length of a long hall, its right hand idly twitching the gun, its left just as idly scratching bits of itself that weren't entirely familiar to its new user.

There were gonna be some changes made.

A soft pop echoes in the spaciousness of the great hall, and something that very much resembles a very old, weatherworn loudspeaker appears ten feet or so off the ground, and stays there. The sounds of someone murmuring and muttering incoherently issue from it, then suddenly the room is filled with what seems like six voices, all speaking at once.
They say:

"Er... hullo. Is this thing on? Are we on the air? Hullo... yes. Yes! Of course I'm pressing th-Hello! Students and Faculty of Hogwarts! We are so very happy to be speaking with you today. Well, really, I guess we're not. But in a way, we are.
It's complicated.
See, we've not been around very much lately (not even to sort!), and our bodies have begun to waste away with inactivity. It happens when you're not animated by a creative spirit... you just sort of fade away, and people forget about you. It's happened to us. That's why we're speaking to you today - to throw in a last bid to somehow save us from being nothing but footnotes in the annals of Hogwarts History.

So... We'd rather like you all to mount a sort of quest. A quest to see if you can't find what's left of us, and blow a little life back into our bodies. We'd very much appreciate it... there's no privacy up here."

The speaker retracts into nothingness, but not before a largish note falls out of the same hole to nowhere. Written in a queer and largish hand are a list of names -

Simon Tam
Roland Deschain of Gilead
Charles Weasley
Sir Alexander Dane
Francis Crawford of Lymond


And at the bottom, in a noticeably more feminine hand:

Anne Shirley

((Alright folks... it's a Character Auction. I'm willing to give Simon, Charlie, Alexander Dane and Francis up to a good home. Otherwise, they're going to go to the discarded characters list. I just don't have the time. So - if you want a character, go and find him. Be creative. Send me an e-mail, too (grinningjim AT gmail DOT com), and I'll give you the password to the account. I'll leave this open for three days or so, then they're all going to disappear in creative ways.
As for Roland and Anne, they need to be found. So go find them :D ))

Getting into the Gryffindor dorms was easy enough. The hard part was figuring out how to get into the girl's dorms - it was after midnight, after all, so Ryuuji didn't think it would be right to wake his beloved Anne up simply he could tell her that he had realized what should have been obvious all along: she was the only girl for him.

Thinking raptuously of her creamy skin, flame-like hair and idealism, he penned a quick note to her then sent it off with an owl, hoping that she would still be awake to read it, and understand the sincerity behind his words.

The note read as follows:

Dearest Cordelia,

You whose beauty lights up the day, I beg you look with favor upon my suit. I realize that we are but new acquaintances, and yet I freely confess that I find myself wholly in love with you, unable to think of how life was possible before I knew you. Please, gracious maiden, do not be so cruel as to reject this ardent suitor, and instead descend with your lily-white feet the stairs that will lead you to he that loves you.

~Eternally yours,
Ryuuji.


Admittedly, he normally wouldn't send off such a flowery missive, but in her case, he had the feeling she'd respond well to overblown romance and melodrama. Just to get the point across perfectly, he transfigured a napkin into a dark red ribbon and wrapped it around the note, transfiguring his usual headband into a white rose and sliding it through the loops of the ribbon before the note was sent off.
