January Scenario: Wild Weather

[Prof. Sky Alton 236]

  Hail rattles against the windows of The Great Hall and the wind seems to be trying to see just how loudly it can howl. You glance up to see that someone has started  a game of pocket quidditch over by the top table; another group are having a very loud argument about which is the best Weird Sisters Album.

 The Situation

 The weather is far too wild for people to go outside for break today. The doors to the Great Hall have been thrown open for everyone instead. Students are making their own very noisy entertainment, while professors and prefects are doing their best to make sure chaos doesn’t descend before the next lesson.

The Location:

  You can roleplay in The Great Hall, Entrance Hall and surrounding corridors.

  Give the guidelines a read before you dive in. Have fun!

[Prof. Sindor Aloyarc 9]

Prof. Aloyarc scurries into the castle from helping with some unexpected groundskeeping duties as the inclement weather came storming in.

 

”Brrr!” He shivers, waving his wand to give the slushy, snowy slop all over his robes a sensible dry-off before tromping through the entrance hall. “What a whirlwind it is out there.”

 

Giving a shake of his hair and fixing it back into place, Sin looks around to see take note of who else is around.

[Prof. Sky Alton 236]

  Sky dashes into the entrance hall, swiping an ice-encrusted mitten across her face and blinking rapidly. Noticing Sindor, she gives him a rueful wave.

"If you ever find yourself in a position where you have to put warm weather gear on a venomous tentacula," she tells him, looking dazed, "run as fast as you can in the opposite direction."

  She takes a deep breath, glances round at the packed space and tries to compose herself.

[Prof. Sindor Aloyarc 9]

Hearing Sky’s comment, Sin’s shiver turns into a shutter, remembering his own less-than-favorable experience with a tentacula in his student years.

 

“Yeah,” he stammers, “about that... I think I’ll pass! I’ve done my best to avoid the things altogether for well over a decade.”
 

Sindor laughs, then pinches and tickles Sky playfully behind the arm where others might not catch it amongst all the hubbub.

 

”You’re our hero, Alton!”

[Prof. Sky Alton 236]

"You won't be interested in helping me get it all off again when the sun comes back out, then?" Sky asks with a smirk, accidentally on purpose smacking Sindor with the sodden end of her scarf as she takes it off.

  She bundles her gloves and scarf into her cloak  pocket and peers around at the crowd.

"This is surprisingly mellow, I have to say. I was expecting at least one duel and one spitball battle to have broken out by now."

"Did the wind outside subdue? I need to send an owl and the wind might blow the owl away!" I ask Sky, who had just accidentally smacked Prof. Sindor with the end of her scarf.

[Prof. Sky Alton 236]

"I'm afraid  you might have to leave it for another few hours," Sky says to Ailee, "I'm not sure any owl could manage it at the moment." She frowns up at the windows which are still being pelted with hailstones and then smiles at the first year sympathetically. "Is it a very important letter?"

[Ailee Aria 0]

"Not exactly...but my mum would k!ll me if I don't send her birthday present!" I say to Sky, frowning

 

" It's cold....I'm gonna bring my sweater now." I say to myself and go to my common room
