Hallowe'en!

[serinusniger]

Congratulations! You've made it halfway through the winter term, and someone is determined that you will enjoy this evening. The smells of the feast started permeating the classrooms about mid afternoon, and by the time classes are let out for the day, the corridor are resplendant in pumpkins and candles.

The Great Hall, is the focus of the celebrations, with animated carved pumpkins on every table, more candles than there've been since the Sorting Ceremony and everyone somehow finding that they do in fact have better robes than the ones they usually wear.

It's the Annual Hogwarts Hallowe'en feast: Tuck in!

Ravenclaw Table

[auraofmystery]

By luck of positioning of the houses, Niccolo Machiavelli has managed to get himself a seat as near to the physical centre of the Hall as it is possible to be, directly opposite his two best friends. It's also a convenient seat because the aisle between the Hufflepuff and Ravenclas tables, that runs up the middle, is sometimes used by a student of one of the lower years, some of which seem to have urgent things to say to Mac.

Ravenclaw Table: Maura

Maura is sitting near the top of her table, eating a pastie.
The pumpkin ones at the feast are always the very best of the year.


Good enough to be ignoring the tall, studious looking boy sitting on her right at the very least. Even though he was the rumor mill's more recent snogging sighting of hers, neither of them looked to be making the effort to talk to the other much.

Inara is a rather late arrival to the festivities, but it is her first opportunity to be inside the grounds - let alone the castle - since her move back to Hogsmeade.

She's still staring up at the ceiling, a little.

From the Ravenclaw table, somebody might be looking at her with interest.

It's hard not to notice, really.

So in return, the man gets a slight acknowledgement of a smile. It's a festive occasion after all!

It's still a very young man. A Ravenclaw sixth year, tall and blond and strong, smiling at her a tad sheepishly.

Angus Urquhart knows when he's out of his league, but he can of course not stop trying.

Not-quite-grown, not-quite-young. It's an odd mix at times.

But there is pumpkin juice and food and all sorts of things, so Inara returns to her plate.

Angus lifts his goblet of pumpkin juice to her, wondering who she might be.
