"Sounds like a bore, Zeke. How are you feeling about the team this year? There a bit more of a force than last year, that's for sure."

Zeke speared a triangle of potato with his fork, as he considered Kemp's question. "Yes," he said after some thought. "I s'ppose they are." He looked down one end of the table, spotting their lightest player laughing, encircled in a ring of his friends. Zeke personally thought the boy looked rather like a weasel, but the third-year was a fast, nimble thing, with an even quicker and more agile broom in his possession now. "Our Seeker has gone through growth spurt," he mused, watching as said boy snorted with a chuckle. "But more importantly he just celebrated his birthday and his parents bought him a Firebolt 4000. He was boasting about it on the platform." The model was top of its line, an enviable thing. Zeke supposed the Galleons pureblooded Slytherins traditionally inherited gave the team an edge that way, in the equipment sector.

Zeke's eyes flickered back to Charles, before they flew to a fifth-year girl. Her hair was in corn-rows now, but she looked tanner. In the light of the candles her dark skin glowed with several bruises. "Leah's been working hard over summer," Zeke murmured. "She did promise to improve on being a Catcher, and she does keep her word." Shrugging, Zeke sat back, and rolled his shoulders and neck to work out the kinks. "After that atrocious fumble last season, I guess she thought she should if she wanted to stay on the team. You might have to keep an eye on that one though. She's like to kill herself on the pitch if she tries to practise too hard."

Picking up his fork again, Zeke bit off the potato. He chewed, swallowed, before asking the sixth-year, "Try-outs will have to come soon, yeah? And what about you, Kemp? You're the captain, what are your thoughts on the team?" The previous captains Zeke had been under had all been strict sadistic arses who had stoically whipped their charges into shape. But they had produced results and scores, and none too bad. Piercing pieces of food absent-mindedly, Zeke wondered what sort of captain Charles would be.

The great and powerful Khalessi has returned to reclaim her dominance. ^^

I mean, how has everyone been? I can see I haven't missed much from the IC.

Are we still wanting to do the Ball scene or skip further into the Quidditch matches?

@HushedWhispers

An entire Khalasar kneels before you!

Glad to see you back, hope it's been okay for you?

And three words for that: hell yeah, Ball. Zeke's probably going to go stag, but it would be fun!

@OfficerHeadbutt@Penguin@Alivefalling HAHA yes, maybe XD but I'm more concerned about whether Sorin's more...dramatic idiosyncrasies will be attributed to sociopathy?

Closed.

Hey, @Alivefalling? Just wanted to ask if Sorin is insane, clinically.

Ming Hua/Noah

Ming Hua shook his head slowly at Alex. Adults disappearing - there was a baby by the beach, orphaned in a second - planes crashing. "None of this makes sense," he murmured, as Emma reemerged from the top of her stairway.

Playing with a lock of her hair, she asked, "How can that be...?" Ming Hua could only shrug. "Your guess is as good as mine," he chimed, when a boy appeared in the door.

Ming Hua turned to take him in properly. A bicycle lay on the lawn behind him; Ming Hua could see it over his shoulder. Politely, Peter greeted the three teenagers, even tossing a courteous salutation Ming Hua's way, even if Ming Hua couldn't recall the boy from Adam.

But he and Emma seemed friendly, so even if Ming Hua was inclined to be wary, he tilted his head to the boy to reply, "All right, thanks." He was confused, to say the least, and not just because the boy persisted with courtesies when the world had been turned on its ear.

"You know," he mused, feeling his eyes glazing over and speaking to no one in particular. "With the adults all gone, how long before you reckon things start getting wild?" He shuddered, and his gaze focused on Peter, blinking in what almost felt like bewilderment, as though realising suddenly that he, Alex and Emma were all before him. Shrugging to cover it up, Ming Hua felt his arms wrap around himself, fingers curling possessively over the bag that now contained his spoils. It was safe to say Mrs Rochester wasn't coming back tonight to chastise him over pilfered goods from the pantry.

The wide-eyed boy inside him - reproachful in his stare, starved in his clutches, childish and distant, but unmistakably him - ran his scrabbling fingernails under Ming Hua's skin, shaking his shoulders again. "I mean, now there's no one to enforce their rules on you." Ming Hua's eyes skittered on the streets that lay beyond the door, idyllic and peaceful for now. "It doesn't take a lot for us to descend into chaos. And most of us..." A chill ran through Ming Hua, "...we crave it." His eyes flickered back to the three, slowly becoming aware of how crazed he must sound. Clearing his throat, he added hesitantly, "Living now is going to be a lot harder if people go crazy with newfound freedom. It'll spread like a contagion, and become pandemonium."

As @WhiteStar19 said, we are getting the time skip to the ball ready. Hopefully we'll get it done soon, so if your character doesn't have a date, get on it ;)

You can just arrange it with someone for your characters to go together if you feel too rushed to RP the actual asking out. Of course, they don't need to go with someone, but it'll probably be more fun that way. LEt us know if you have any concerns or questions!

@Prints Avoid

So how are things going? (:
