Sarah, Prompto and the Chocobos |EasilyAmused & Polarize|

Her blue eyes shot in the direction of Prompto as Noctis made it a point to tell her that he was their marksman. Who would have thought they would share the same idea for a weapon. Upon the conversation between the men she nodded along making sure to listen as she placed her small hands on her hips. Boy… she was very out of her league listening to them but maybe… just maybe they could help rid the post of their biggest problem.

Prompto poking fun at Noctis for him being the honest problem of why they wouldn’t be able to get up early made her laugh softy at the man’s expense. They seemed like a great group of friends despite what they were going to deal with in the morning. Even then she couldn’t have been more grateful for their agreement to take care of the problem. Well, if anything it was Prompto’s idea and she should probably thank him properly for it

As the rest of the group dismissed themselves, she pulled the rifle over her head and rested it softly in her hands. She never thought there would be time when she would have to use it, but now might just be the time. Her gaze moved from the gun up to him as he asked if she was sure she didn’t mind coming.

A small embarrassed laugh left her. “Well… the last time I went I just ran form things so I’m not sure what help I’d be with all of you considering you’re fighters and I’m a runner. I could end up getting in your way more than helping…” A small pause between them caused her face to crunch together. Thoughts moving a million miles an hour before her expression turned to one of determination.

“Prompto.” She stated turning her blue gaze from the gun up to him. “Will you please teach me how to shoot this? I don’t want to be useless or in the way. I… I won’t take up much of your time, I promise and we can go far enough away to not scare the Chocobos. I can get some cans from the kitchen.” She probably sounded rather desperate but the last thing she wanted to do was be a burden, “I know it can be as simple as point and click but…” Her small hands gripped the rifle and her gaze shifted away from him, a tint of pink forming over her cheeks as she blushed. “I’m nervous…”

“You pain me fair maiden, the idea of asking for sexual fairs in exchange for a simple bet is horrific…. I mean that’s third date marital and we’re not there yet.” His teasing voice echoed through the headmistress’s office. It was almost like being naughty school children sneaking around behind the teacher’s back. In all fairness, she led the way; so ‘she started it’ and boy, he had no intention of letting her live it down either.

The two naughty school kids stood in the headmistress’s office until she slid out from under his arm and he stood back upright with a knowing smile across his face. “Look at you; I got you all nervous by not asking for a sexual favor. That’s a trick I will keep in my back pocket.” His laughter carried through the office as they ventured out of it and towards the Great Hall as to not draw additional attention to their sudden disappearance.

Following instead behind her, she raised an eyebrow as she turned around. “You did not break any clothes to work out in?” His voice showed a tone of disbelief as he slid his hands into the pocket of his robes. A brief pause came between them before a smirk rose across his lips and the ember eyed man shrugged softly. “You can run naked, you’d never hear me complaining.” A cheeky grin moved across his fine lips showing his straight white teeth. “You make it sounds like clothing is a requirement here at Hogwarts…”

“Wait…” Gabrial’s voice stressed a little. “This isn’t Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Nudity?” A long defeated sounding sigh left him. “Are you SERIOUS… what did I sign up for then… Jesus, people can’t be nude but the head of Gryffindor’s house wants to give me a blowjob… this is an odd school indeed.” Laughing softly to remind her that he was truly joking he tilted his head. “So what’s the traits found within the Gryffindor House? Aside from avoiding physical labor at all costs.”

Once the hat was placed on his head, the man was wrapped into another world in his own mind; during this time he was presented with a series of questions which were answered instantly by his own mind. “You are very resourceful despite your laid back appearance.” The Sorting Hat spoke aloud as he analyzed the man’s inner most mind. “Hm… someone is very clever, very clever indeed. You take pride in your partnerships with friends and would defend them to the very end. You have a drive to defend yourself and others along with the desire in completing things. You remind me of someone I knew very long ago.”

“Slytherin!”

The hat announced his designated house and even Gabrial looked shocked as he lifted the hat off of his head. “You know all of that was supposed to be a secret. I’d rather have people thing I’m lazy, uncaring and stupid. You ruined my whole plan!” His voice was reflected the playfulness that resided in him before he turned to her.

“So, if I’m to understand form what the Sorting Hat showed me, there’s a form of rivalry between the Gryffindor House and the Slytherin House. Is that right?” With that he slowly approached her, like a predator stalking his pray until he had her backed against the bookshelf. His hand went up above her head as he leaned forward and down over her. A smirk moved across his fine lips as his ember eyes stared down, reminding her just how much taller he was compared to her and that… as agreed; she would have to do one thing he said.

“You… Are…. Going… To…” With each word he progressed closer and closer to her. “Go…” Soon he was at her ear and in a deep husky voice he whispered, “Running with me tomorrow morning.” With that he pulled back from her with a victorious grin. “5am sharp meet me at the Quidditch Pitch and run a few laps.”

“Thank you.” He said politely to the Sorting Hat who had fallen back into his slumber. Turning his attention back to her he gestured towards the door. “We better hurry to the Great Hall or else our presence will be noticed as missing.”

The question about what house he would be sorted into did raise a question in his own mind as he tapped his chain I thought. “I don’t know what… what does the process entail? Is it a test or a quiz or a game of spin the bottle?” He questioned playfully. That was until the mischievous smile moved across her face he raised an eyebrow at her.

Upon their sudden hand holding, the snowy haired man was drug in a different direction from the main hall. “But… but food…” His voice was filled with playful disappointment that resembled a child as he was pulled along down the hallway. He just arrived here and now he was off on another adventure. This is very fun. And his grin said just that!

As they hurried down the hallway like two mischievous children breaking the rules they found themselves in the Headmaster’s office and standing in front of an old wizard’s hat. “What is this?” He asked with a chuckle looking down at the thing.

That was until it popped alive. “Are you laughing at me?”

Gabrial jumped back in surprise from the hat, you’d think being a pureblood he’d be used to talking objects but… “A talking hat, that’s new.” He said pointing at the hat. “That’s really cool.” Soon he had the hat in his hand as he looked it over. “I wonder what kind of spell it is, or maybe someone dipped it into a potion. Oh… that could be a thing…” He tilted the hat and looked up inside of it. “You’d have to fully emerge the thing into the potion and give it time to absurd it. I would how long it would take…” His mind began to trail a million miles an hour as he looked over the hat who could only show an expression of annoyance.

Potions really were Gabrial’s life and his excitement showed as he put more and more thought into what it would take to develop a potion that could make someone have a personality and speak. “Getting something to speak is the hard part… that requires bewitching items before putting it into the potion….” It was at that moment he realized he was speaking out loud and shook his head. “I’m sorry.” He said apologizing to the hat before putting it back down then he apologized to her.

“So, if you’re willing to bet, how about it? If I’m sorted into Gryffindor I will do any one thing you say. But if I’m sorted into Slytherin than you will do any one thing I say.” He extended out his hand to her. “Deal?”

Through the Looking Glass |SinfulSkills & Fetzen|

Kaila cleaned the mirror with a sense of pride. She bought this with her own money and it was beautiful!! Grinning from ear to ear she finished cleaning and left to put away the cleaning marital. During her time away the mirror rippled and flashed, showing an upward angle of a twilight sky and a large humanoid-creature standing above it looking downwards.

By the time the short haired girl returned to her room, the mirror had returned to normal. Humming to herself she folded her laundry and put it away before going back to the mirror. Checking her reflection she gave herself a little nod before turning to face her bed, that was until she tripped… over nothing. Yes that’s right, the poor girl tripped over nothing and fell towards her mirror. Well a quick re-clean never hurt. Until she watched her hand disappear into the glass like she had dipped her hand into water. “What the…” Before she could finish her sentence or shout for help, her entire body fell into the liquid mirror.

The world around her shifted, she felt like she floating in water but, she could breathe. Around her was glimmering obs of light which danced away from her when she reached out to touch them. She was so in aw that she forgot she was in danger, that was until she noticed she was falling towards a black pit of an exit. Panic filled her as she attempted to move away from the pit but she was launched through it with a large amount of force.

The black liquid felt like water and covered her entire body before she was thrown from the water and sent flying through the air. Her scream echoed throughout the forest and all she saw was she was going to impact someone and… sure enough she did.

Splat. The young girl landed on him with a thud before rolling off of him and staring upwards. Her body hurt, her head was spinning and she was staring up at the sky. “What… happened…?”
