HEBB: The Dining Room

:ALyssa looked around. This was a really large dining room. A big chandlier was al gold and glittery she felt like she could sit and stare at it for hours:

Illy follows Dimples into the room, her eyes hitting the chandlier. The two sat in silence, swaying back and forth as the chandlier mesmerised them. Something magical was obviously happening

:Alyssa heard footsteps and blinked. She had felt like she was mesmorized. She shook her head and looked at Illy, waving a hand in front of her face.:

"Hellooooo, anybody home?" she called, smiling.

Illy jumped as a hand came in front of her.

"I...er" she muttered shaking her head, not wanting to look at the chandlier again

"Dimples...hi...I....where am I?"

:Alyssa gave her a peculiar look." "You're in the Dining Room, remeber?" she said to her friend. "Maybe we should go...I'm a little freaked out..."

Illy nodded and glanced nervosly at the chandlier before following dimples out of the room

::Lifey set her giant bowls of snack (see the kitchen for what it is) in the center of the table, and seeing other people, conjured more bowls and spoons so they could all partake of it's chocolaty, carmaly, marshmellowy, milky, peanut buttery popcorny sticky goopy goodness::

"anyone want some?" ::she asked cheerfully.:: "I made extra just in case."

::Streams edges into the dining room and eyes lifey's concoction.::

"Um...it looks okay...maybe I'll have some," she whispered, throwing a hasty glance at the glittery chandelier.

::Feeling a little warm, she tried to open a window...but it wouldn't open. She tried not to show her panic at being locked in (maybe the window was just stuck, after all) and resolutely took a seat at the large wooden table.::

Dancing wandered into the room, she waved at the pale Dimples and Illy leaving the room. She caught sight of Lify and Streams and waved to them also.

"What's that?" Dancing pointed at the chocoalte stuff. "Looks good."

::Lifey dished out two bowls of the wonderfullness::

"It's my comfort food. I'm in a new place and quite frankly" ::her voice dropped to a whisper:: "i'm scared!!!" :she smiled back at streams and new just how she felt.::

"i feel a bit trapped too, but there's a garden and a pool and everything! don't worry, this should be fun." ::Lifey huggled streams and dancing.::

::she then took a bit out of her snack::

::streams sent a wavery smile in dancing's direction and waved half-heartedly while trying inconspicuosly to open a window.

she was then huggled by lifey and sort of huggled back, making sure to have one hand on the handle of her wand at all times.:: "No one understands how I feel," she muttered. "You all think this place is rosy and happy."

"Oh not rosey and happy. i mean i expect some people to turn REALLY mean, especially near the end. It's how all these reality things turn out. but afterwards we'll all be friends again."

::Lifey sighed and fell into thought.::

"Well, yeah, I suppose," streams murmured, not daring to disagree in case Lifey was really a spy from Big Brother. "And I'm not really mean..." lowers her voice to the barest whisper "I mean, I may be rude sometimes but I'm just being careful really..." ::then streams jumps up suddenly and dashes to the other side of the room, eyeing lifey warily all the while.

::Lifey was startled by stream's behavior::

"er...yeah..i hope i'm a nice person..i mean...i got hte hagrid award."" :she pointed to her shiney trophy key chain that said 'most like hagrid"::

"Hagrid...hmmm" streams mused. "Isn't there a theory that Hagrid is really a Dark servant, and that the whole thing was hushed up? He WAS expelled, after all..."

::Lifey looked shocked::

"that's absolute poppycock!" :She giggled::

"Hagrid bad! hagrids loyal to dumbledore nataurally!"

::Streams shrugged. Of course lifey would say that...at least she wasn't trying to lie. she was either not a risk, or a very good spy. streams decided to keep her guard around lifey at all times.::

::Lifey shook her head. She was very fond at hagrid, and she didn't particularly enjoy having him bashed.::

"how do you like my chocolatly snacky thing?" she asked, changing hte topic to something they could hopefully agree on.::

"oh, um...it smells delicious. I haven't tasted it, though...can I? I'm starved..."

"Of course" ::and lifey herself took a huge bit into it.::

::streamers watched lifey eat and figured she would die of hunger if she didn't eat something...so she took a bite...and choked.::

::Lifey looked alarmed as streams choked::

"what the matter?"

::Lifey began to panick. the food was fine for her::

"Omg are you okay?" ::she got to her feet.::

::streams coughed, slowly turning purple, then swallowed convulsively, her magic kicking in. "I'm fine" she muttered embarrassedly. "My throat was probably tight from me being nervous..." she mumbled under her breath.

"But it IS delicious lifey," streams said more loudly, taking a huge bite and swallowing it with obvious pleasure.

::Lifey relaxed::

"you had me worried there. I mean no one's ever choked on my...er...snack..thing before...Well i'm glad you're okay"

Moony walked into the dining room and smiled at its inhabitants

"hi everyone" she said before sitting down at the abnormally large dining table

Raistlin followed moony and looked at the one's who were inside.

~ Maybe i should play it cool for now after all i do not want to be the first to be expelled~ he hought

"Hello everybody and what's that you're eating? Don't you wanna share it with us?".

::Caree stuffed rest of the sandwich quickly in her mouth, trying to swallow it::

"Nuffin'!!!" ::she muffled::

::Erin wandered into the dining room. She was kind of tired, but that was not going to dampen her spirits.

"Hey, everyone!" she said. "Mind if I join you?"::

::Finally getting the sandwich down her throat, she grinned widely to Erin:: "Of coooourse, come on come on come on!!!" ::she rushed her, patting the seat next to her::

"Hello Eirbear. How are you? You're entering but i'm already leaving. See ya."

::Etta walked into the Dining room and smiled at her fellow housemates.::

"Hey everyone, room for one more?" She asked as she clung onto her plate of pasta and chicken kievs.

"Haaa, always room for you, Ettie dearest!!!" ::Caree laughed:: "How's my partner in crime, hmm?" ^^

*Etta huggled Caroru and then sat down.*

"I'm gooood," she grinned. "how's you? I've been naughty, i broke the Diary room door."

"I thought that was you.... no one else makes such a racket around here" ::smirks:: "Ah, i've been jumping at people and tackling them in the snow, freezing my toes to death and stuff like that"

::Etta grinned.::

"We should really plot, i mean we are the Weasley Triplets after all and three ad heads is better then one or two or however many," she said now slightly confuggled.

"Yeah, but i'm worried that swifty might think about the consequences" ::Caree said, staring up at the ceiling deep in thoughts::

"Consequences? Blah, she's our sister!" Etta said excitedly. "Anyway, we can always go forth and do whatever it is we do when we go fourth and have some fun."

"Exactly!! Why isn't there more people that think like you!?" ::grumbles before laughing::

"Because it's Tuesday and i forgot to bring my sanity tablets with me," Etta shrugged as she began to chew the table.::

::streams tilted her head, listening closely to this conversation. What exactly were they planning? She decided to be on guard in case they tried hurting her.::

::Cookie stumbled into the room, holding her head and squinting at everything.::

"Oh, hello all!" she exclaimed when she saw everyone gathered there. "My head hurts from hitting it and forgetting that the tournement thing has started. May I have some of that?" she asked, pointing to the large bowl of chocolately stuff::

::prinny ran into the dining room:: "hey carr, etta, cookie, ooo...chocolate!" ::she said as she dipped her fingers into it:: "i love this house! its so nice...i could live her forever! just the house though...not the people" ::she grinned at started to laugh:: "kidding, guys!

::streams furrowed her brow. it was so hard to understand everyone...half the time they kept saying 'just kidding.' "How am I supposed to know when they're being serious?" she mumbled. Then she thought: Why are these people so cheerful? Don't they REALIZE what 'evict' really means? I sort of envy their innocence...::

::Cookie piled some of the chocolate goo onto a plate, and stuck one of her fingers in it. Grinning and looking at everyone, she noticed Streamy was frowning.::

"You okay, streamers?" she asked, sticking her chocolately finger into her mouth. Inwardly, she felt a surprising annoyance. Streamy was taking this whole thing a little too seriously...::

"mmm...chocolate goo" ::she murmured contentedly:: "anyways thanx guys...i'm off to explore some more:

::streams scowled. fine, so cookie could be all cheerful. wait till she finds out what 'evict' really means, and then we'll see that smile wiped off her face. Does she know that 'evicted' people are never seen or heard from again?

::streams shook her head sadly and rummaged around. she pulled out a container of sour pickles off the table and cast three different Detection spells before she took one pickle and ate it.::

~Jesse sat on the dining table super gluing his skateboard wheel back on ~ He tried not to spill that notorious tube of sticky substance as he was not looking forward to an unfortunate accident~

Jess ran in carrying her cheesy corn and sat down at the table. "Hey guys," She said dipping one of the chips into the cheesy corn andpulling it back out loaded with corn, She ate it smiling, "Jesse dont spill that glue, and especially dont get it down.. nevermind, Just dont touch the bleech," She said finishing up and walked into the bedroom.

~Jesse gave a nod to jess as he successfully finished his project~ "There" he grinned and carried his newly fixed skateboard out to the garden.~
