Acacia had just finished eating when the headmaster announced it was time to go to their respective common rooms. Part of her was glad the feast was over with, the other half wanted to sit and continue to stuff her face with as much food as she could get her hands on. She smiled a little at that thought, but didn't act on it. She had other things she needed to do. Like get to the common room and discuss things with her friends. No doubt they would have questions about Willow and what exactly she was planning. She wasn't planning much, not yet anyways. As Voss led them to the dungeons, she was glad to meet up with a friendly face.

[b]"Ah, my dear Acacia. Sorry I did not catch you on the train. I was busy with...other endeavors."[/b] A tall blond haired man said as he walked up to her with a bow as he produced a purple flower from seemingly out of nowhere. Acacia simply rolled her eyes as the man offered her the flower. This was a yearly occurrence that had been going on since she first came to Hogwarts. Eldred had first attempted to woo her over with one of these flowers upon introducing herself. It was as silly then as it is now. [b]"Put the flower away Eldred."[/b] She said with a sigh. [i]"Still don't like your namesake? I think it doesn't do a pretty girl such as yourself justice."[i] He said, feigning being hurt as he placed the flower in his robe somewhere. [b]"If you're done with your useless attempts at flirting, mind if we get going?"[/b] She asked motioning towards the rest of the Slytherin house, who had gotten quite a bit a ways ahead of them during their little meet up. [i]"But of course, let us get going to our room. I believe we have much to discuss, like that girl Willow."[/i]

With that, Eldred and Acacia made their way to the dungeons where the Slytherin house Common Room was. On their way there, Eldred and her talked about their summer. Eldred had spent most of his time in libraries and flirting with women. No surprise there really, since it was pretty much all he did in Hogwarts unless he was up to something. Her summer, was of course uneventful for the most part since she was pretty much trapped in her house. Thankfully, they soon reached the common room. After Voss told them the password, the wall to the common room disappeared and revealed the entrance to the Slytherin common room. It felt good to be back. Eldred took a seat in his usual spot as the first years and everyone else went about their own business. Before Acacia could take a seat though, she was interrupted but someone calling her name.

[i]"Acaciiiiiaaaa!"[/i] Acacia grimaced the sound of the voice. She was hoping the owner of the voice would stay gone just a bit longer. She was her...eh, 'friend' and all, but she was a bit on the annoying side. She braced herself for the inevitable. She had not once been able to ever find a way to avoid what was about to happen next. From seemingly out of nowhere, a girl about the same age as herself tackled her and sent both of them tumbling over the arm of the couch. Acacia ended up on her back, with the other girl laying on top of her. The other girl in question soon sat up and gave Acacia a smile. [i]"Hi!"[/i] She said in a cheery tone. Acacia simply gave her an unimpressed look. [b]"Hello, Alice. Mind getting off of me?"[/b] She said with a serious look. 

[i]"Ah, If only i could take a picture of this."[/i] Eldred chuckled, causing Acacia and Alice both to shoot him a glare. [i]"If you even think about it, I'll throw you out a window, jackass."[/i] Alice said with a growl. [i]"As vicious as always I see, Alice."[/i] Eldred sighed.

[b]"Yeah, if you two are done, mind getting off? Or am I going to have to make you?"[/b] Acacia grumpily said to the both of them. [i]"Oh, right! Sorry!~"[/i] Alice giggled as she got up, letting Acacia take a seat on the couch she had tackled them over. Alice took a seat next to her as another voice spoke up in the common room. [i]"Noisy as ever."[/i] A boy that was now sitting in an empty chair said as he quietly looked over the three of them. [b]"Ah, Brant, nice to see you made it."[/b] Acaica said with a look to the boy, who simply nodded in response.

[b]"Now that the four of us are here, lets talk."[/b] Acacia said giving the three of them a serious look. [i]"Damn right we need too. Acacia, what's up with this Willow girl? Why are we supposed to be nice to her?"[/i] Alice said, obviously not happy with the news. [b]"Because I said so. And that's all you need to know."[/b] Alice continued to frown, still not too happy with this news. [i]"Fiiine, but only because its you Acacia."[/i] She finally said. [b]"Good, now lets talk."[/b]
