First of all I want to apologize for not replying for such a long time. My health condition worsened lately (I'm diabetic) so I was hospitalized for nearly 3 weeks. I should have announced you sooner but I didn't have my laptop with me. -.-
Half of my post is finished, just give me a little time to finish it.
Again, I do apologize for such a late reply.

Interested in a Hunger Games roleplay. :)
Uff, I feel sort of relieved!I thought you wouldn't like this plot twist. I mean, if this was the case, we could think about something else together since it is a matter of tastes after all =)
My mom is alright, thank you! She's just a little stressed because of... me. I mean, in September I have to move by myself to a bigger city for college studies and we're short of money at the moment.This is why I am kind of busy with my own 'personal bussiness'. (doing portraits and getting paid for them, to save money) hehe.Thanks for the concern, it means a lot ^^.
Letting my life aside, how about you?Doing well at your job? :D

I'm sorry again for such a late (and loooong) post.
Seems that I'm getting a little busy in this period but I'll try my best to post at least once a day. If not, definitely once per 2 days. I hope you don't mind that!
And hey, I was thinking... what if Dumbledore will make them work in team?Something like this : the game will be placed on an arena with people spread all through the arena, without them meeting directly at first (coz, of course, everyone would throw spells at each other). Dumbledore will intentionally place them at a fairly short distance, to make them eventually meet each other. The game will be carefully monitored by Dumbledore and the judges.Dumbledore will blackmail them by telling to make a teamwork, otherwise neither of them will win or something like that. What do you think?I want your opinion first! If not, I will change the last part of my post :D

Noah blinked once.Twice.Three times.Everything happened so quickly that his mind couldn’t immediately comprehend what was going on with him.Just two fucking seconds ago he was quietly munching his croissant with cherry juice in peace, and now his face, hair and clothes were completely drenched in a sweet, red liquid. It didn’t take long for his blood to boil through his veins, ready to explode anytime. The bitch went too far. Which meant only one thing : revenge.
Noah closed his eyes as if mentally trying to calm himself down and not do any scene to make her feel even more satisfied. Eventually, he rushed out of the hall under the examining eyes of the fewer students that decided to stay a little longer in the Great Hall to chat, followed shortly by Jacob and two other students.
„What a cow.Just what her problem is?” Elena, a girl in her 6th year whom Noah had been mates with in the Quidditch team and presumably Jacob’s girlfriend, said .With her hands folded, she was watching Noah wash his face at the closest bathroom since the Gryffindor’s Dormitory was at least 10 minutes away.
„She’s a Slytherin, what can you expect from her?” The boy named Zayn added, grabbing the nearest towel in order to hand it to Noah.
The students’s words seem vague to Noah’s ear. His anger apparently vanished after the cold water refreshed his senses, but not completely.However, what did the three students who were by his side not know was that one single wrong word and Noah might explode anytime.This fact could be comfirmed by the intense silence he unleashes, which isn’t a good sign.He was staring at the mirror with an unreadable expression, thousands of thoughts crossing his mind.
„That bitch needs to be fucked, Noah.You have to do something!” Jacob said as he leaned his back on the doorway, waiting for some reaction from his green-eyed friend. You don’t say. ”You can’t sit and wait for her next--”
„OKAY, FINE, SHERLOCK!” Noah suddenly yelled out loud which startled the three students, lifting his chin and giving Jacob a long death glare. Elena and Zayn stood still and swallowed their own saliva, seemingly afraid that he might lose his composure too much just like in those times when Alyssa did indeed received her well-deserved punishment from him.Jacob, however, only stood there unimpressed at Noah’s sudden outburst and decided to let him externalize his wrath. Although, what they didn’t know was that someone else had been walking up towards them with firm steps.” I AM AWARE OF THAT TOO! BUT WHAT CAN I DO NOW ? NOTHING. NOTHING AT ALL, FOR THE MOMENT. TOMORROW I AM GOING TO TAKE PART IN THAT CRAPPY TEST AND I –CANNOT – AFFORD A BLONDE SLUT TO MESS WITH MY MIND. MY FUCKING FUTURE DEPENDS ON THAT TEST, GOT IT?AND--”
„N-Noah...ah...” Elena’s face went pale and tried to mumble something once she got a glimpse of the person that now had been sitting right behind him.The reaction was soon shared with both Jacob and Zayn, who were trying their best to make Noah shut up by mouthing or making lip-sealing signs.
„AND THAT FUCKFACED BITCH WILL PAY FOR THIS, I SWEAR ON ANYTHING--„
„Noah!”
”THE REVENGE WOULD BE SWEETER THAN--”
„Noah!Behind you!” Jacob yelled suddenly, pointing behind him.
„WHAT! WHAT THE HELL YOU WAN--oh.” Noah rolled his eyes and turned his head over shoulders, though once he got aware of Minerva McGonagall’s presence, he quickly swallowed his words and covered his idiotic mouth.„P-Professor McGonagall !Oh...my sincere apologies.I had no idea you were here... ”
McGonagall narrowed her eyes in a scolding manner, sign that she wasn’t pleased with the boy’s rude attitude.Although, considering the previous incident and knowing the famous long-term relationship of rivalry between him and the blonde Slytherin, she decided to overlook that. „You better reflect on your behahiour, mr. Hollingsworth, because this will be the last time I tolerate it. This is an educational institute, not a headquarters for delinquents.” She said on a calm, but not-as-friendly tone of voice which earned a moment of silence, followed by a slow, forced nod coming from Noah.
„Yes ma’am...”
„Good.Follow me, Noah. Professor Dumbledore is asking for your and miss LeStrange’s presence. ” She stated, turning her back as a sign for him to follow her.Noah stood there confused and took one more glance at his drenched clothes.
„Now?” Noah asked almost mockingly, pointing to his wet shirt.
Gonagall glanced harshly.”Now.”
This is going to be sooo fun...
Once Noah stepped inside the office, he couldn’t help himself but refrain from making any scene. The office looked by far more familiar than it should : old but elegant-looking furniture, and two sofas with a small table in-between.Dumbledore looked up while sipping from a cup of tea and smiled kindly, waving at him.
„Noah,my boy. Here you are, have a seat!Oh,want some biscuits ?It goes well with tea.”
McGonagall waited for the boy to do as Dumbledore said, but he refused to, standing up next to the sofa.„Sir, I believe I didn’t come here to sit and chitchat.Plus, I’ve got a shower to take, as you can very well see.” He stopped, knowing it might’ve sound a little harsh, before continuing to speak. „So?What’s the problem?”
Dumbledore furrowed his eyebrows, as if trying to choose his words carefully.„Well, I suppose you know that very well,my boy. It concerns both you and miss LeStrange.This negative atmosphere you two emit are going to definitely affect your Test abilities.”
„What is there to solve, sir?” Noah cut him off, and the feeling of the sticky juice on his skin didn’t make him feel any better. ”I’m sorry for sounding rude, but this matter should be solely my and LeStrange's concern. We will fix that somehow.”
„How?By throwing a bucket of toilet water in her head like you did in year 3?Or by placing a bunch of clothing-eater bugs in her uniform like last year?”
Noah took his time to remember his previous actions with an internal smirk before carelessly shrugging, as if it was something completely natural.„So what?She deserved--ouch!” Noah quickly stopped talking and rubbed a spot of his head that was hit by McGonagall's wand, sign that he went too far.Dumbledore resorted to just laughing, not affected in the least.
„It’s alright, Minerva.” His head slowly moved towards the opened door which revealed a moody Snape and Alyssa Lestrange. ”Oh, seems that miss LeStrange is here at the right time!”
A long, awkward silence overwhelmed the room, mainly because of the exchange of glares between the two. Noah felt the need to lick his dry lips at the sight of Alyssa’s snicker and a sudden urge to spit in her face. The amount of disgust he felt for the girl was so great that his stomach began to ache. Dumbledore studied the two students’s faces for a while, before breaking the silence. „Exactly what I was talking about.This tension between you two needs to disappear, my children. It’s not only unhealthy for your psychic state, but a bad example for the rest of the students as well.”
„Then let me motivate why will I and she never have a ‚decent’relationship,sir.” Noah suddenly stepped ahead, pointing to him and then to her.”Bacause one : she’s an attention-seeker with such a huge obsession for me that, instead of wasting her time qualitatively, she does nothing but flick her hair over shoulders and make up childish pranks; and two : you all are promoting her hypocrisy!And since you all are going to do nothing about this, I--” Without him realising, he did already stick his hand inside the pants’s back pockets and took a firm grip of his wand, pointing it to Alyssa.Though once he opened his mouth to say the spell, McGonagall grabbed his hand tightly while Snape took a step ahead, as if trying to cover Alyssa anytime.
„Put your wand down, Noah.Or would you fancy not only 50Gryffindor points taken,but a possible expulsion from the Game as well?” Noah bit his lip and put his wand back, knowing the teacher was right.He couldn’t do any mistake which could compromise his entry in Test. Dumbledore coughed a little, inoffensively at first, but the act itself is telling them it was moment for him to speak up.
„Well,well, since everything is finally settled, we can move on to the reasons as to why I brought you two here.Which is..." Dumbledore took one more sip of his tea, and with one subtle smile, he continued. "... team work! ”
Noah closed his eyes as if mentally trying to calm himself down and not do any scene to make her feel even more satisfied.

Just while he was waiting for Dumbledore to make his appearance in front of the podium with his cheek leaned on the palm, a mix of heavy but feminine cologne with soap did reach his nostrils, making him act like he was about to throw up.Which meant one certain thing. Alyssa LeStrange.The prototype of bitchiness. And yes, his no. 1 rival in his whole life as a Hogwarts student.He was definitely surprinsed to hear that her last name had been LeStrange when they first fought in their first year,because he was pretty sure that a surname like LeCow or LeBitch would suit her much better. And no, he doesn’t usually adopt this ‘discourteous’ way when it comes to girls. But she couldn’t be considered a girl, right?Of course, she was looking like one… okay, maybe more like a physically appealing one (judging by the ridiculous amount of popularity she’s gained ), but who could be so sure she was indeed one and not some ready-to-thrust-her-fangs-anytime kind of viper in disguise? He didn’t care about gender when it comes to Slytherin, it was like all of them share the same canting genes.This is why he didn’t even bother himself to look up at her, it would waste about 5 seconds of his precious time.However, there was one thing that made him raise an eyebrow – and it was the way she called him.Once the Queen Bee and her flock headed towards the Slytherin table, the Gryffindors couldn’t help themselves but roll their eyes knowingly, while some of the girls chuckle mockingly at the blonde girl – it was obvious that the Gryffindor gals didn’t have a very ‘nice’ view of her neither.
„Don’t mind her, Noah.” A girl in year 4 who stood in his right did whisper encouragingly.
”You know her--” A boy in his year – his name being either Zayn or Zack, he couldn’t remember exactly – added, only to be cut off by a blonde familiar-looking boy.
„Wait, wait a minute!” Jacob Greyback stood still for a second, as if trying to make an effort to hold back his laugh, though failing miserably. ”Did—did she call you a---ahaha- m-muggleborn?” He said between laughs, wiping a nonexistent tear off the corner of his eye. ”W-What a dumb-ahaha!Does she even know what a muggleborn mean?” Noah smiled, knowing what his friend was trying to say.
„Well, he isn’t pure-blooded either. So your point is invalid, Greyback.”A dark-skinned boy in his 6th year did reply matter-of-factly from the Ravenclaw’s table while adjusting his glasses.Noah narrowed his eyes once their eyes met– he wasn’t sure whether the older boy was trying to sound sarcastic or to take Alyssa’s side.Although he was betting on the first option, since the Ravenclaws were ‚smart’ enough to not side with the hypocrites.Or to not side with anyone.Unlike some of the Hufflepuffs ; well, not exactly siding with them, more like being forced to.
Yes, Noah was neither .He was half-blooded, though most of his life was spent in the care of his muggleborn mother in London, after a forced break up with his pure-blooded father – one of the Hollingsworth’s successors – due to family matters.Although once his mother died at the tiny age of 12, he was more than ‚welcomed’ into the prestigious but cold family, whose symbol – a salamander – was tattooed on the right side of his stomach.And then again, what’s with this sudden interest in his life matters?
„And since when is my wizard status more important than the Test’s rules, Williams?” Noah asked with a fake ‚curiousity’, though his next sentence did prove its rhetoric effect.”Oh, right, since a Slytherin little bitch decides to stick her filthy nose into my personal life.Which makes total sense, because it looks like my life is by far more interesting than hers. ” Some of the nearby Gryffindors did chuckle approvingly, as well as 4 or 5 Raveclaws, despite Slytherins’ death glare. The dark-skinned Williams guy did crack a small smile, sign that he was by Noah’s side.
Once the Dumbledore left out a loud, intimidating cough, all the students turned their attention awkwardly to their principal , letting the heavy silence overwhelm the room. After checking the mic, the old man began reciting his so well-known speech, that you could easily mouth him after 3-4 years of living in the castle.The history of the H.A.A.T, the founders of the game, the famous rules.Shit like that.Meanwhile, a bunch of house-elves were rushing through the students to set the various mouth-watering meals and drinks, which lessened the boredom of looking at an empty table.
Noah licked his lips hungrily at the sight of his plate, yet something stopped him from trying the food yet, looking up at the old man. „... and this year we’re going to have only 550 participants in the Test : 185 out of 300 Slytherins, 189 out of 300 Gryffindors, 114 out of 300 Ravenclaws and 62 out 300 Hufflepuffs.An interesting decrease, in comparison to the last year, when the number of the players did surpass 800.” Loud gasps could be heard in the room.Yes, it was shocking.But Noah wasn’t impressed, not after the last year’s game where out of 800 students, only 68 managed to pass.„And here’s the answer : 549 young men and only one courageous lady!What a surprinse!” Okay, now THIS is shocking!Noah’s eyes widened before he turned to glare meaningfully at his female mates – they just shrugged out of shame. Gryffindor’s bravery and determination my ass.These chicks are just scaredy-cats.
Then, no one needed to inform him who the ‚mysterious’ female player was, all the glances were fixed on a certain blonde gal.Which made his whole appetite vanish as their eyes met.
„Don’t mind her, Noah.” A girl in year 4 who stood in his right did whisper encouragingly.
”You know her--” A boy in his year – his name being either Zayn or Zack, he couldn’t remember exactly – added, only to be cut off by a blonde familiar-looking boy.

It's alright!Take your time! :D
