Hallowe'en!

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!

Leo doesn't hear the request for potatoes, what he feels is the sharp elbow to his side from the girl to his right.

"I'm sorry? What? Oh." He picks up the bowl and passes it down the line. "Sorry," he calls down the table.

Off in the distance Don just laughs.

"Geez, Hamato," Mel snarks at him lighthearttedly when the potatoes finally arrive at her empty plate (and she takes well over half of what's left) "pay attention to the needs of your housemates."

"Consider it a lesson in self sufficiency," he replies only a half a beat late.

It's not that Mel couldn't have accio'd the things from where she was, but that she's got into so many fights over the years that teachers have developed the habit of bearing down on her everytime she gets her wand out.

"Consider this a lesson in social responsibility."

'This' in question being her index and middle fingers.

"Winning friends and influencing people, the Fray way," he sighs. "I think we'd all prefer not to lose any more points for profanity at the dinner table, Melaka."

Mel rolls her eyes at him.

"Oh no! Don't take points away from me!"

She loads up the sarcasm in case he needs it spelled out for him.

Leonardo shakes his head at her and turns back towards his meal.

"If you really require a hug that badly, Fray, all you need do is ask."

"Bite me, Yank."

She repeats the gesture with her fingers and turns back to the Quidditch team, who are in general, impressed with neither of them.
