> >color=6699CC>Slinky fatale leaned weary form against a wall heavily, dark eyes roaming over the Hogwarts crowd with indiscriminate apprehension. Gaze pausing over each only for a fraction of a second before moving to the next. Black ooids paused upon those she thought to fit the names given to she; Harry, Ron, Draco and Ginny. O’course their names had merely passed through the infamous grapevine in the school, reaching her ears during the most recent rendezvous with the medical centre and Madam Avalon. Slender digits tucked stray stresses behind an ear before sliding down the opposing arm to her wrists, tracing the white bandages, which had been wrapped there. Teeth were gritted as attention was reverted to fall upon those entering the Gatherplace. Cold eyes fell upon that of the raven-haired from of ‘The Boy Who Lived’ (and lived once again), brows furrowing before returning to a passive expression. Slipped into a near seat, though sliding farther from the group she had stepped near. >color=6699CC>

Curls of raven are brushed back by digits sloppily as black eyes scrutinize the Hogwarts’ students, curiosity exposed in the pits of shade. A serene sigh discharges as he lounges listlessly against his chair, tuning out the majority of possessions as he advances to a deeper altitude of thinking, entirely exhausting his least concentration in the official procedure that the headmistress of Skitzoln presents. Nearly close to dozing, he mentally obliges himself to ‘awaken’, keep his eyes open and at least act as if he’s paying attention. With a smirk he camouflages a yawn under his hand as eyes of masked passion once again examine the new comers with simulated awareness.

[> [> [> Coldness Spreads.. -- Cho Chang, 11:08:33 03/24/02 Sun

Chinese-descended female sullenly proceeds in the line which mobilizes before her, raven locks plummet carelessly over feminine shoulders in doing so. Circular face posessing melancholy and coldness to all who endure a steady stare upon the other Hogwarts students and herself as teen's feet plunge resentlessly, giving forth a barely audible tap, tap, tap 'gainst the floor. Female glances around the faces, all showing different emotions towards the comers from Britain..

Dark eyes sting, youth downcasting reluctant gaze to the floor, remembering the many friends, popularity, and so much more that had went down with Hogwarts.. Especially Cedric. That name still brought tears to her eyes for she never told him how much she cared for him before he went into that labyrinth of towering hedges, but that was before Hogwarts had.. No, her thoughts shan't hover on it any longer! A now determined gaze lifts from the cold floors. Somehow, this would work..

[> [> [> [> * a world of false reality * -- * lee * jordan *, 14:46:18 03/24/02 Sun

Mocha-tinged male falls in step behind petite femme of asian heritage. Dark oculi pass over the sea of faces. No familiars. No welcomes. Of course there wouldn't be any familiar, comforting faces. All he knew were following in the queu. And, of course, no welcomes. They were immagrants, invading upon the terrain of these americans. He was not wanted. But he was here. Why? Because a chain of events had destroyed all he had known. All he had loved. All he was. Now, life passed by like a picture movie. He was a mere viewer. Unaffected by the going ons in the movie. Right? No. Before him was not a preview, not a well-rehearsed script. 'Twas no play. 'Twas real. It was happening. And it did affect him. Everything that happened affected him. He simply did not care. Another gaze is cast over the mass of new figures. Why was it that he had survived, when others had not. When one of his best friends hadn't. He was torn with the loss and betrayal now present in his every waking moment. But, the world did not care. Nor did he care for the world. He would watch out for himself. Thats all there was too it.

[> [> [> [> [> Reluctance is the Key.. -- Cho Chang, 15:13:50 03/24/02 Sun

A reluctant smile is passed to Lee as head turns to find male behind herself. Remembering how happy Lee used to be back at Hogwarts, remembering the excitement in his voice every time he spoke through the microphone at the quidditch games and how sometimes Professor McGonagall would get angry at him for sometimes cursing at Slytherin for cheating whenever they did..

Gaze is then downcast, poised head turned ahead of her. Asian-descendant then waiting for what was to happen, unsure of what lay ahead at this new school..

Small smile is returned to the pretty girl in front. Indeed, he remembered the days when he was carefree, when he could laugh. Though they seemed just like foggy memories, from another lifetime. He recalled as well, Cho's once vivacious and spicy spirit, the big grin she would easily pass to those around her. The way she used to glow. The center of attention. Now, it seemed as though some of her spirit had been left in Britain, her glow had been decreased.

However, just by her smile, he could feel a little warmth return to his body. At least some kindness was shown. Not everyone he had known had been left behind. He still did have a few..

The slight smile that she had passed only moments before was the first in months, but olive skin-toned female knew better things might come within time. Light weight is shifted uncomfortably, looking at the new headmaster with dark, perplexed eyes, a slender finger twisting around a few, raven strands. Adolescent looks at all the other previous Hogwarts students, a glance given to each to reassure them, especially herself..

Knowing she was to be placed into a new house, a slight frown teases at her lips, but she manages to keep a very small smile hinting on her rounded face. A slight longing fills her heart as she waits, remembering her old house, Ravenclaw..

[> [> Something like human
-- Pandora Fallon, 12:32:33 03/26/02 Tue

She had roused from lethargic sleep to attend this condemnable ceremony that no one had shut their traps about since it had been announced. The effect of the total darkness of her dormitory and the slowly encroaching dawn had been potent on her arousal from where she her place of nightly retirement. The bed had seemed to have swallowed her slight form and engulf it and she was most reluctant to leave the comfort it bestowed in abundance. She had been physically warm, for she could never be emotionally warm. Even lukewarm. Nonetheless, she had eventually risen with much protest from her barely awakened, tired body. After all preliminary hygenics were diligently completed, she was now merely adding 'finishing touches' to her distinct poise. Presently, her diffident stare gawks with naturally wide eyed wonder into the her dormitory mirror, her reflection staring stonily back at her and looking incredibly glum. The delicate rose of a girl, so indifferent and pain strikingly beauitiful, heaves a melodramatic sigh. A dainty hand extends in impatient exasperation to grapple for an elite diamond clad hair clip while her atmospheric hued eyes still gape coldly at the stoic girl in the mirror. Her silken, dark chocolate hued tresses are taken with expedite into slender digits, and the trite routine in which her straight hair is flipped into an intricate French twist; her signature coiffure, ensues. The staid femme fatale gives herself an arrestive glance in the mirror as if in mocking all the rest of her gender and she simpers her galvanic smirk before flipping the lights off and striding into the dormitory in all her pristine, timeless splendor. She perfects the art of classical finesse with unlabored polish and ease.

I'll go ahead and get this tedious ordeal over with, sighs her less than chipper mind dramatically as she descends the winding staircase; her destination: the Gatherplace. She particularly has an odious distaste for that specified district because the announcements she had been unjustly required to attend did and continue to do nothing but corrosively waste her time and energy. She vapidly contemplates the bleak vissicitudes of life as she peers blankly with unnerving, violet eyes at the masonry and tapestries of the ornate and divine corridors. Such a insouciant, ungrateful wretch she is. She'd probably go to Hell, if such a place exsisted, when she died. Death was a subject that enamored the snide female, especially such themes as a premature burial. What suffering it would cause for one to die such a horrendous death. At least they'd have time to remember what it was like to live. She smiles with inappropriate amusement as these thoughts cross her sinful, eternally irresolute mind. Hell, the impassive wanton reasons, everything you do to avoid death is just a procrastination. And so, Pandora Fallon, cynical and prepared with dragnet, ala twisted Aphrodite, mentally discordantly makes her graceful and leisurely way to the aggrandized ceremony.

Hogwarts. Hogwarts. Hogwarts. It's all anyone had gossiped about in their shallow ways for weeks. It has begun to get a bit pablum in the angsty adolescent's complicated, sometimes morbid mind. Long ago, she had committed social suicide, and she had no intent of resurrecting herself. Of course, she was renowned for her admirable genes, and she attended opulent banquets with her family which she could care less about it (except for her brother), but she was never outgoing. She was the firstborn Fallon in the new generation, hence her eminence in Oregon's wizarding society. If she had been of worthless muggle heritage, she would be a social zero. Ironically, she is very slightly intrigued in a way, with false hope. She, being impersonable and insufferable to the world, holds the slightest ray of withering prospect that there will be someone 'like her' arriving. The chance is slim for such an irrational and quixotic wish. Her nearly extinct enthusiasm mixed with pessimism for the oncoming ceremony has sparked resentment towards the milestone of introducing students from overseas into their less than humble abode.

With mien of regal dame, the female with a certain inpalpable elegance beyond the reach of the arts sweeps swiftly and clearly into the coveted for others and loathed for herself Gatherplace. The location where so many boring speeches and pointless screeds have occured monotonously. Not a bouncy or buoyant gait does this ineffably exquisite muliebral behold; such sophisticated background and semblance does not allow for such mockery for the Fallon name. No, the peacocking youth... damsel, perhaps... has a fluent, flowing, and naturally nonchalant gait only possessed by a veritable aristocrat. With great apathy, her cerulean optics ferret out the newcomers in unhurried languor. Her trademark, beguiling smirk flickers over her pale peach lips and she reclines oh so deliberately casually against the nearest wall, with a clear cut "holier than thou" look on her rawly attractive face. Her defined collar bones displayed by a tastefully adorned, ebony shirt with sleeves that billow at her fragile wrists. Black pants, of a near polyseter material, (not jeans, of course, for she is much too prominent in society for such an disgraceful first impression upon those arriving), that have been magicked to fit her delectably, rest upon her hips. All of this gives her a decisively female appearance. Such a cherubic looking female... surely she must have fallen from above. And fallen right through the ground and emerged again, snipes her magnanimous and mazy mind. An impeccable style she does possess, and fast acting wit as well. She's never impulsive, though. Acting now then thinking later is the lifestyle of a frivolous fool who would probably die in poverty, as history had proved time and time again.

Hmmm. Wonder how many of them I can corrupt, is one of the most novel thoughts in the youthen individual's constantly reeling mind as she jauntily contemplates the British crowd. She stands... and stares... unnerving and unwaveringly, as if sizing them up but without purpose or evident motive... perhaps out of mere boredom. The cynical vixen rolls densely lashed oculars and trails a hand delicately across the bronze skin around her elevated collar bones. Everytime her elongated lashes make contact with the creamy, incredibly soft skin beneath her eyes as she blinks, they cast dim and gray shadows allectively across her pallid visage. Although, one cannot seperate their presence from that of the dark circles beneath her eyes. She's full of blank faced, colorless beauty and glamour. Underneath it all, just beneath the surface, she's remarkably different from the others. Even if her true colors and loyalties are dark, they're unique shades. She stands and stares.

Standing akimbo, with frail hands on her hips and elbows set at right angles, her body language screams that she wants to get this epically torturous ordeal over with. The enigma that is Pandora Fallon can be a thorn in one's side, or a thorn about to go into one's side. Haughtily, she yawns in an exaggerated way but has the etiquette (dwelled into her mind by her patriarch and matriarch) to faintly cover her mouth as she does so. The vextatious girl refrains from speaking a bitingly caustic remark on the incompetence of the staff to move things along and accomplish the required; for the unspoken word never does harm. Except in the instance of "I love you too," retorts her aberrant conscience... or lack thereof. Yet, the inclementless girl would not know about love. She, as many others, had recited rumors to memory of what the meaningless (at least to her) word meant. It held no dominance in her. Potent is the effect of irony upon a soul permanently immersed in the abyssal depths of despair. She aches in ways she desperately wants to ignore. She wants to feel true apprecipation and perhaps even empathy about her endless tribulations from a mere companion compatible with her execrable personality. For now, she ascertains that her only friend... no, ally, rather... is herself. She doesn't know if she wants it that way or not. I have no mouth but I must scream. This about summarizes her indignance with the world and humanity and her plight in general. For now. For tomorrow. For forever. Solitary exsistence. A superior look plastered on lovely, alabastor characteristics, her face offers no indication of her conflicting emotion. Empty, lazuline eyes, depthless in their imbibing of her ambiance, study the crowd disdainfully, but she really isn't seeing. Or is she? No one, surely, can tell with such an unpredictable and patronizing person. And so, she stares... what's going on behind those sapphire oculars? No one knows except the coolly staid beholder of the forlorning windows to the soul. Better to be alone than in bad company. Such a cliche, dearest darling. Do free your mind of such hackneyed quotes. The same massive, inwardly suffocated sigh that's she's emitted many times over during this day is exhaled spiritlessly, and she suddenly falls motionless except for the barely detectable rise and fall motion of her torso and the occasional blinking of her light eyes. Standing and staring. I have no mouth but I must scream.
