Open Post: Hogsmeade

[courageous_wit]

[it's Saturday, so it's time to kick back and enjoy the lovely sights of Hogsmeade. Have a drink at the Three Broomsticks, grab some sweets from Honeydukes, or dare to check out the famously haunted Shrieking Shack! Just kick back and enjoy yourselves today!

This is technically only open to third years and above, but if you can sneak out without teachers noticing more power to you!]

[Three Broomsticks | Honeydukes | Zonko’s Joke Shop | Hog’s Head | Shrieking Shack | and feel free to make own sections!]

[Heaven forbid.]

You might like it. No responsibility.

[gottaknockhard]

Isn't that already part of being a kid?

[nothingtobelieve]

A part you never grew out of.

[gottaknockhard]

That only explains how I got sucked into it.

[nothingtobelieve]

It's one excuse, anyway.

[gottaknockhard]

[He drops his head, like he's actually considering it.]

Does that make it easier on you?

[nothingtobelieve]

Not particularly.

[gottaknockhard]

[He looks up at that unexpected honesty.]

Never thought about being a magician?

[nothingtobelieve]

That would be ridiculous.

[Never mind that they were literally surrounded by magic at the moment]

[gottaknockhard]

[Biting smiles don't seem to have the same impact coming from a kid, but it's more of a reflex.]

I really would.

[nothingtobelieve]

There's no need to consider it, then.

[No paths to move down than the ones already chosen]

[gottaknockhard]

You'd think that would make it easy to get kicked out.

[nothingtobelieve]

I'm sure you could manage.

[Although he really doesn't want any of them to be stuck in this place long enough for expulsions to be a thing. Not even Spike.]

[gottaknockhard]

[Since when has the castle ever gotten things over quickly?]

You'd think. I almost had them with the broom.

[nothingtobelieve]

[He looks over Spike's battered appearance again]

I think you have that backwards.

[gottaknockhard]

I don't think I'll be doing much sweeping after this.

[nothingtobelieve]

You never know. They might need a janitor.

[gottaknockhard]

[He smirks, finding that funnier than Vicious intended -- or he finds the whole thing so ridiculous that he can't keep a straight face.]

At least I have a backup plan.
