[[ Raptor: I accepted you, yes, but if you don't start making acceptable posts that are relevant to the RP, I'm going to have to ask you to stop.
BlueEyed: I'm would very much appreciate it if you would send me a sample of your writing? :3
... Also, it seems I'm going to make Kenyan a Slytherin. xD No other characters playing are any house but, it seems. ]]
Alexandria had kept silent practically the whole trip: The arrival at Platform 9 3/4, the train ride, and the sorting. She didn't want to start her year at Hogwarts befriending those unworthy of the Slytherin place. She was sitting at the Slytherin table next to some kids blabbing on about not wanting to be friends and their heritage. It was painstakingly obvious that if you were in Slytherin, it didn't really matter what your mom's maiden name was.
"Kenyan, darling." Alexandria spoke to the boy sitting across the table from her. He paused, midway to taking a bite. He seemed surprised at her use of the word 'darling'. It seemed formal, though, everything about Alexandria was formal. "What's your mother's maiden name?" She said, a sneer on her face worthy of a non-existent Death Eater. The girl didn't feel bad about making fun of those sitting next to her, as she never had before.
"Alexandria," Kenyan said, putting his fork down and glancing at the people near him. "Why don't you start eating and shut up?" He grinned happily as if what he said wouldn't be offensive. And of course, Alexandria scowled at him, making it known that she was indeed offended.
[[ ... I didn't know where to start guys, sorry. So! I made my Alexandria be her usual B with an 'itch' on the end earlier than I had intended. xD ]]

((LOL, it's fine. ^^ I can already foresee a power play between Calli and Alexandria; "whose the biggest b--?" xD))
Whilst talking to Draco and Micah, Calligenia was suddenly aware of the conversation going on with the two first years beside her. As she listened to what the girl said, her eyes flashed in anger and she turned to her, face twisted in a callous sneer to rival her's.
"No need to ask if you've got dirty blood," Calligenia said coldly, assumptions running through her head as she assessed Miss Stuck Up. "If you don't think a person's name matters, or at least care to make it known that you don't, you've obviously got some blood in you that you don't want others to know or question you about." She ignored the warning pinch Draco was giving her; if she knew him well enough, he approved of the way she was dealing with the girl's mockery, but didn't want her to make too much of a scene in case it drew unnecessary attention. She didn't flinch at the pain, but merely continued, eyes narrowed as she scrutinised her. Just to throw the girl's words back in her face, though, she smiled, baring her teeth in a look Draco had long since known to be wary of. "What's your name, though, honey?"

[[ Can you say: Frenemies? xD ]]
It took all of Alexandria's power not to laugh in this girl's face. Not a pureblood? Her?? Hah. She's never heard a joke funnier than that. She couldn't help but smile at Calligenia though. Her accusations were just blind words thrown as a supposed insult. The instant the girl called her 'Honey', though, it was on. No one, not even her own mother, was to call her anything but her name: Alexandria.
Eyes blazing with anger, she turned to face Calligenia. "My name is Alexandria. Alexandria Hart, and I expect you to call me that at all times, darling." Alex had practically growled the last word in Calligenia's face. If there was one thing that ticked Alexandria off, it was calling her something other than her name. "And, if you cared to know, my blood is pure down to the first wizard to bear my last name." Her mouth curled into a sneer once more and from the corner of her eye, Alex could see Kenyan pushing the food around on his plate. Sure, he was a pure blood too, but the whole topic just made him uncomfortable. He didn't care if someone was muggle born or not, but he wasn't about to mention that in the moment.

Micah's face grew dark. "Her maiden name is Riddle." "You're Calligenia Black, right?" "Your family's famous for.... assorted things." "So, Draco and Calligenia, what class are you most excited to take?" "I can't wait for Care of Magical Creatures." Micah pulled out a box. "This is why." He opened the box. The gold unicorn peeked it's head out. "Bababa." purred the unicorn. "I want to learn how to keep it." "It was the runt of the litter and the mom wouldn't feed it." So I took her in." "You better not tell." He hastily changed the subject and put the box away as Professor McGonagall walked by. He looked at Calligenia weirdly. "Don't you eat?"

"Then it's a good thing I don't really care what you expect me to do, isn't it, sweetheart?" Calligenia retorted, putting particular emphasis on the second syllable of her last word. She smiled with all the mock sweetness she could conjure. Pretending not to notice Alexandria's angry face, she turned to her plate and delicately began to use her fork to eat, acting for all the world as if the other girl was not worth her time. She sipped from a glass of water, and turned to Draco, not bothering to lower her voice. "And that is how you deal with little Miss Stuck Ups. I expect you to remember it next time Pansy Parkinson tries to insult me and you go flying in like a raving Gryffindor." She sneered at Draco. Draco didn't like her condescending tone at all, and he would get angry at her later for it, but whilst she was defending herself against others, they were a united front. He leaned back and smirked.
"Very good, Ligee. Very good." He smiled. "My father will hear about this," he said proudly, and Calligenia rolled her eyes.
((Blergh, sorry Bob, you posted while I was responding to Vin. xD))

Alexandria sincerely wanted to slap that fake smile off of her face, but one nudge from under the table brought her back to reality. She turned to look at Kenyan, the one who nudged her, and smiled at him. A genuine smile. She would just get back 'Ligee', whatever the hell kind of name was that, in a different way, seeing how mere insults weren't just going to work. "Her maiden name was Riddle." That pulled Alexandria out of her train of thought. Riddle... It sounded oddly familiar. If he declared that his blood line was so pure, Riddle had to be a highly decorated name. Perhaps her family knew them, or perhaps not. The questions reeled in her mind. The nagging 'I-know-the-answer-but-I-have-forgotten-it' feeling annoyed her to no end. She'd ask him about it later, possibly. That is, if he wasn't hanging around the Darling creature that graced his presence now. A moment later, Kenyan cleared his throat. Alexandria turned to look at him, but his gaze was focused clearly on Calligenia. "Miss?" He addressed her in his easy going, friendly tone, a pleasant smile on his face. "Ligee?" Alexandria didn't know what he was up to, but she knew that it was most likely something she would hate.

((LOL, it's fine. xD))
Calligenia was finding it hard to keep up with two conversations at once, so she let Draco talk with Micah whilst she sat, on guard with Alexandria Hart around.
Draco gaped at the unicorn Micah was showing him, before quickly looking around. "Put it away," he hissed, "it's illegal." He couldn't help the awe, and greed, that seeped into his eyes, though. His father would hear about this, indeed. "Personally, I'm looking forward to Potions. Severus will let me pass with a breeze." He smirked, feeling accomplished on being on first name terms with one of the professors.
While Draco talked to Micah, Calligenia turned to the boy Alexandria had been talking to before. She hadn't paid much attention to him, but when he called on her, she turned. She was partly curious, because they hadn't been introduced yet, and partly annoyed, knowing that if he was an acquaintance with Alexandria, this conversation would go as splendidly as the lat one had.
"That's Calligenia to you," she replied coolly. She thought that perhaps with his warm, pleasant ex
pression he expected her to be nice to him; well, that wasn't happening anytime soon. Calligenia wasn't nice. She was decent to a few, select people, and respected even less, but she wasn't nice. "What do you want?"

[[ I like how she tells her name to Kenyan before Micah. xD Ah, the little joys I take from life... ]]
"Calligenia," Kenyan repeated, letting it roll off his tongue as if it were an exotic name. A smile was perched on his lips as he looked back to the girl. "I would just like to say I'm sorry." He paused and pursed his lips, glaring a bit at his friend before continuing. "For Alex. She's very temperamental, though I would never use that as a legitimate excuse for her.
"So, on behalf of my honor, I would like to say I'm sorry, once again." Kenyan paused and thought for a mere second, then opened his mouth to say something more before stopping. Once death glare from Alexandria had stopped him cold for a little time. "You also have my permission to hit her if she gets out of line once more." He added with a wholehearted laugh. He didn't know if he was joking or not, honestly, but he wouldn't mind if Alexandria was put in her place for once.
[[ Oh Kenyan, you little evil thing... Just wait until Alexandria burns all your underwear as revenge and you go rogue for the rest of the year. >.> ]]

Micah scowled. "Illegal, Shmegal." "What was I supposed to do, let it die?" Micah heard "Miss". He butted in. "That's Ms. Black to you" he said in a silly voice. He smirked and looked at Draco. He was suppressing a laugh. "Who're you two?" he asked the boy and girl talking to Calligenia. "So, Ms. Black, do you eat?" "Or are you a alien in a pretty suit?" Micah noticed that he was hungry. He grabbed a roll, buttered it and nibbled at it. Why was this girl so spitefull?

((LOL. xD I'm assuming Alexandria and Kenyan know each other from before school, then? It never said it anywhere explicitly. ^^))
Calligenia scrutinished him for a full minute before she replied. "As much as your proactivity is...appreciated-" her whole voice sounded insincere, as if she had never had much practice saying the word, and her posture was stiff. Draco thought, for one amazed moment, that she was going to accept the apology, but the illusion was shattered at her next words. "-I will not be accepting any apologies unless they come from Alex herself." Oh, how she loved to torment people.
Draco was stunned - Calligenia, of all people, should know when to keep going with brazen dispassion and when to stop and plan to continue the argument later. Plus, they could possibly be losing allies. He pinched her again, and she flinched this time. He gave her the tiniest of glare, and looked to Kenyan.
"We haven't met, have we?" His face was a mask of polite indifference. "My name is Draco Malfoy, and yes, my father is Lucius Malfoy." Keeping his face as straight as possible, he continued, "There's no point in apologising to Ligee; she's about as much of a harpy as your Alexandria." He nodded to the blonde girl, and gave Calligenia a smug smile as she gaped at him.
((Ohmgosh, it happened again. x-x))

(Okay well bring me back to the time everyone else is at)
Evan sat at the Gryffindor table eating a roll, a chicken leg and drinking pumpkin juice. Evan looked over at the Slytherin table and saw the boy in the straw hat, Micah was his name he had heard it during sorting then Evan looked at the head table with the teachers and the headmaster, Albus Dumbledore. Evan sighed and muttered to himself "I wish i could go home, I'm forever alone here. I have no friends." (lol)

(Hi ^.^ I was wondering if it could be possible that maybe I join ?)
Name: Adaira Greengrass Age: 11 Gender: Female House: Slytherin Wand: 10" Rowan with a runspoor fang core Pet: Lira a long haired silver tabby Personality: Adaira is an overly kind-hearted person with a bit of a bad temper, although if confronted she will more than likely just slink away. She is very shy and tends to keep to herself not having many friends other that her cat Lira. Despite all of this she is actually quite clever and smart, as well she can be cunning and sly when the need to be arises. She could care less about purebloods, or anything else involving blood status but she tends to agree with purebloods being 'better' in social occasions. She loves to read and challenge herself, she secretly wishes that she was sorted into Ravenclaw where she would be able to find friends who would actually have substance in their conversations instead of the Slytherins who only care for pureblood status and the latest fashions. Other: She is a pureblood. Quidditch Position (Future) : Does not like sports. Looks/Deion: Looks : Very long black curly hair and green eyes.

If looks could kill, Callegenia would be dead from the glare Alexandria was giving her. She immediately stopped when she received a kick in the shin from Kenyan. He was glaring at her the same way she happened to be at Callegenia.
"Well," Kenyan continued, smiling once again at Calle. "As much as I'd wish Alex to apologize, I don't see that happening soon." He said this with a grimace, though it washed away as soon as Draco started talking.
"Malfoy?" Kenyan repeated, sounding a bit shocked. "My parents talk very highly of your father." He said with a grin. "He's a very respected man in our house." Kenyan paused, thinking as if he forgot something. "Oh! I forgot, my name is Kenyan O'shea."

((Omg I saw all these posts and I forgot to reply. x-x BOB should join into our power play. xD Also, it looks like this roleplay is mainly going to be war of the Slytherins. o.O))
Draco offered a cordial nod to Kenyan, which amused Calligenia to no end - he seemed like he was trying to act just like his Father. She knew how much he idolised his daddy, though - it was much the same with her and her parents - and she'd never make fun of him for it out loud. "Likewise. My father has mentioned you once or twice."
"As has mine," Calligenia piped up, perfectly willing to be gracious to Kenyan, who didn't seem to have any ill intent towards her. She had heard of him before, many a time, and was therefore not worried about being seen associating with him.
Draco shot her a glare, and she could only presume it was because she was interrupting 'men's time'. She let a small smirk grace her lips at him, which he ignored and instead spoke. "Is your mother well?"

[[ Psh... Every one loves a Slytherin! Well, not including teachers, Gryffindors, Ravenclaws or Hufflepuffs... ]] Kenyan's eyes widened in surprise. Mentioned him? He was asking about his mother? He hadn't known how well their parents knew eachother, but Kenyan's parents certainly never mentioned Draco to him. He didn't know why, but it slightly aggravated him. Why hadn't they?
Calligenia's voice brought him out of his train of thought. Oh, her parents knew her family as well? Makes sense. They were all purebloods. He shot her a smile before wincing from a sharp pain. Alexandria had kicked him in the shin. Hard. He shot her a glare, not unlike the one Draco had given Callegenia.
"My mother's quite well, thank you for asking," Kenyan finally said, returning back to his conversation with the others. "And yours?" He said this to both Calli and Draco, though he was sure Draco thought it was directed to only him. |

"Mother is fine," Draco replied, trying to sound smooth, whilst Calligenia replied at the same time, "She's busy as always. The Pureblood season is coming up, and she has many parties to plan." Draco glared at her again, even harder, and as much as she wanted to aggravate him some more, she, like he had mentioned, knew when to stop and she didn't fancy her Aunt Narcissa reprimanding her for participating in such crass activities.
They suddenly saw people standing up, and Draco assumed it was time to go to their quarters. Like Calligenia, he had been to Hogwarts many times with his Father on financial business, and his Father had showed him the place where he would be spending much of the seven years of his education. Standing up abruptly, he wiped his mouth with a napkin. Remembering the old-fashioned manners ingrained in him since birth, he was about to offer his hand to Calligenia, but remembered that outside of the family home, relatives weren't to extend this courtesy to each other. The closest female in range was Alexandria, so reluctantly, he offered his hand to her stiffly. "If I may?" he said tightly.
