Potterheads Unite! discussion

A exquisitely upholstered hall on the 8th floor of the castle, floor-to-ceiling windows sweep above to flying buttresses and paintings from a bygone age greet visitors, never dusty with the vigilance of the Caretaker. Statues stand around the room in magnificent condition, robes figured so delicately that many fail to believe they could not be magical and faces expressive.
Not many come here despite the gorgeous view and grand chandeliers but in the time and place it is stupendous.

((Role-Play here!))

Rowena was carried into the Gallery by Davian, smiling. "Oh, it's so pretty!" she said, looking up at the high ceiling. "I love it,"

Davian set her down and looked up to the high walls filled with paintings, a spry young wizard waved at them and another vehement-looking gent with a steel grey beard crossed his arms, "Youth!" he muttered and Davian grinned giving them a wave, another witch smiled and sat back in her chair sharing a glance with the first wizard.
Davian looked down "Now that I think about it having a bunch of venerable magicians looking at us may not be so terribly relaxing." he whispered to her.

Rowena gave a soft laugh, "It's not like they can do anything to us," she whispered, "They're just oil paintings..."

Davian looked down at her and grinned mischievously "Except they make irritating snorts when we're trying to snog." he said with a little of a embarrassed laugh. He looked over the walls.

((Shoot I got to go.))

(Aw)


Rowena laughed, walking over to a huge window with him, "They don't have to watch," she said, looking up at the star strewn sky.

((Mercy can we roleplay with Alexander and Amy? ))

(Yeah! It's just we had interrupted someone else's rp so I want sure I'd we were continuing or finding a new thread... But I gtg for now so sorry!)

(( Oh...we can jump to the paths going back to the castle? Anyway see you around!))

"But I'm sure they will." Davian said with a smirk sauntering over to Rowena and his breath came out softly as he joined her in watching the stars, eventually he cracked open the window and they watched it through the clear space.
A breeze whisked in and Davian tentatively took Rowena's arm "I'm not sure which is more stunning." he said quietly "You or the stars."

((*uber-romantic moment comin' right up!))

((*squeals and claps while grabbing popcorn* yaaaay!))

Rowena glanced up at him, a shy smile on her face, "You're not to bad-looking yourself," she replied quietly, her blue eyes wide with awe, a slight flush to her pale cheeks.

(Flor, that sonds great! You post first?)

((Woooot! I'm kind of thrilled my RP is that valued heh.))

Davian grinned like a fool. "It amazes me how you're always so calm when I'm so flustered." he marveled with a smile directed to Rowena herself.

(I love RP and you're awesome at it so eeeepp! Yaay!)


Rowena smiled back at him, "Flustered's okay," she said softly, looking into his beautiful eyes, "I like flustered."

((Oh, goodness. Thanks! Oh, wow. The flattery is never-ending...))

Davian himself actually flushed "Er. Thanks?" he said grinning and took her hand gazing up to the stars "Look!" he exclaimed "Shooting star." with one hand he indicated a comet still shining through its path as a starry wanderer of the heavens, it was beautiful. He squeezed her hand gently and smiled down to her.

Rowena gazed up at it in wonder, "It's amazing," she murmured, stroking the back on his hand with her thumb absentmindedly.

"Agreed." Davian found himself saying and he leaned down kissing her lightly on the cheek.

((Wow. There's only so far romantic RPs can go so IMO we need some DRAMA! Any ideas?))

((Hmmm... They could get in a fight cuz that's always fun to RP and then make up afterwards- obviously- but idk! Anything works lol ;) ))


Rowena smiled, leaning her head on his shoulder gently.

((Okay, I'll think about it! Tomorrow....as I need to go to bed now, but I'll think about it know :D lol. Thanks!))

Davian braced his hands against the windowsill and looked outside to the palisade before them made of stone, he looked back to Rowena and back onto the wall above considering. He nodded to it "Up for a little adventure?" he questioned.

Rowena's eyes widened and she grinned, "Of course! I love a good adventure," she laughed softy.


(Okay sweet! It's okay I'm going to bed too! Night!)

Davian grinned and stepping onto the windowsill he studied the distance, glanced back to Rowena winking and jumped to the wall a few feet in front of him ignoring the gap below. He leaned against the parapet of the narrow palisade and spread his hands.

Rowena smiled, following his actions, "If we get caught, it's your fault," she laughed.

((Ooh those words are going to come back and bite them bwahahahahaaa.))

Davian laughed with her and as she swung across the gap stepped to the side to allow her space on the small wall, "Ladies first." he said with a bow and grinned at her cockily.

(Hahahahahah yeaaaahhh they are!!)


Rowena rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out playfully.

((Gah. Lunch calls. Sorry!!!!! I don't mean to leave all the time :())

(It's Okaaay!)

((Sorry again! Oops I guess I'll be quiet.))

Davian smirked "Then..." he walked forwards calling behind him "I guess I'll be the one to explore everything," he glanced behind and looked wicked "Chicken," he teased inoffensively.

Rowena rolled her eyes, "Please," she said, following him.

Davian's smirk widened and he started to speak before there was a small thump and a muffled curse, eventually he spoke "Incidentally watch your step," he muttered Lumos and his face was illuminated out of the darkness "There's a small indentation on the floor." came his grumpy voice.
unbeknownst to the two footfalls sounded below softly.

((Got...to...go. *particular mild curse* I can't believe this!))

Rowena bit her lip, lighting her wand as well, "Okay," she said, close behind him.

Davian heard the anxiety in her voice "You won't fall." he said. "I won't let you. I couldn't let you go and fall without my permission could I now." he said a little cockily.
His eyes moved down to the grounds and he stepped further away from the wall. Davian looked to Rowena "I think there is someone down there." he muttered

Rowena took Davians hand gently, "Uh-oh.." She murmured, dimming her wand slightly.

(( Could I join here with the caretaker?))

((I was planning for it to be the Head but of course tlr!
Just...for plot's sake she must be angry! That way they-))


Davian peeked down to the grounds below. A good-looking woman maybe in her forties was patrolling below, his face paled and he looked back to Rowena "The caretaker." he whispered and sidled up next to her.
A abrupt rustle of sage below startled them and without preamble Davian rushed in front of Rowena and pushed her to the side, twisting his head to see a red bolt of magic zoom into the sky. "Bloody-" he started.

Caretaker Broosh turned sharply on her heel and her eyes focused in on the boy above. " You! Vhat! Var you doing up vhere?!" Madame Broosh was livid.

Rowena yelped, then looked down, swallowing hard "J-just walking," She replied in a would-be casual voice. She shot a glare at Davian. This was his idea, which meant it would be all his fault if she was landed in detention.

((AMAZING! Like always of course Leia! :D ))

((Lady Inkyfingers...*taps foot aimlessly*))


Davian stepped forwards simultaneously as Rowena spoke "It was my idea." he said quickly a little edge of caution in his tone, "I wanted to explore and Rowena was with me, it was my idea." he continued and glanced back to Rowena his heart sinking. She did not look happy.

((Well then you may give her my thanks for all of these wonderful ideas!))

((Oh yes I sure will Halle! She has a lot of them ;)))

((Alright! :) ))

Rowena crossed her arms, looking down. She chewed her lip and turned her wand light off.

" Get down vere!" she cried. " Or vi'll call the veadmistress" her gray eyes stared up at them like a hawk

Rowenas eyes widened slightly and she reluctantly started making her way back down.

Davian looked to Rowena and took her hand, "There are stairs," he murmured to her "I'll go first." and without further ado slid his leg over the balustrade and appeared to fall.
In reality he had grasped the rungs of a ladder which was embedded in the rock wall and was climbing down "Here Ro." he called to her and then jumped the last few stairs landing by the caretaker "Ma'am."


((Whoops simultaneous posts, should work I believe.))

Rowena followed him, landing beside him. She pulled at the seam of her robes nervously.

" Now explain vis to me" she said scowling her lips pursed

Davian closed his eyes for a second and stepped forwards formulating his words mentally "Rowena and I were in the gallery," he said carefully "I went onto the palisade for kicks and she followed when I asked. It was my fault ma'am." he said without guile "I deserve the detention."

" Now vis vouldn't happen to ve a date could it?" she asked staring down at them

Davian reddened staring back up nonetheless "Maybe." he answered glancing back to Rowena, she looked even less happy now.

" Oh vit is!!" She said loudly and shook her hands. " Vow sweet!" She turned back around " Von't mind me!"
