Second floor common room- Wednesday evening

[imawizard]

This had been the strangest day Harry had had since he was here, and he'd gone to the common room to decompress. Maybe watch something. Maybe talk to people.

And what happened was he decided he was gonna get on a broom and play Quidditch in the common room sooooooo there was that.

Belle thought the Quidditch playing was just charming, and smiled at Harry as she entered.

"You fly!"

[imawizard]

"I do!" Harry said, grinning. "Not usually in here!"

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Belle, much younger than usual, smiled again. "I never met anyone who could fly before," she confessed shyly.

[imawizard]

"Maybe you have and you just don't know it," Harry said excitedly.

[craic_killer]

"Hello!" Clare said with a smile.

[noonedecidesmyfate]

"Hello," Belle said, eyeing Claire suspiciously.

Was she going to start flying too?

[craic_killer]

Clare was going to be very sincere at her instead. "It's been a very odd day, hasn't it?"

[craic_killer]

"I was coming in here to read," Clare said, pointing vehemently at her book. "This whale seems like a bad sort, Harry! Why are you flying inside?!"

[imawizard]

"I don't know," Harry brooded. "Sorry if it bothers you."

[craic_killer]

"I wouldn't say bothers, as such," Clare said, biting her lip nervously, "but it doesn't seem terribly safe!"

[imawizard]

"It's perfectly safe," Harry scoffed. "I've had classes."

The activity at the park had been odd, it was true, but not as odd as her roommate flying around the common room on a broom.

Sakaki felt heat rushing to her cheeks as she peeked into the room to watch.

"Ribbons," she murmured. "So cute..."

What ribbons was she even talking about? Who knew. But they were cute, apparently!

[imawizard]

Harry was suddenly hard at work writing something. With a quill. Totally normal here.

[kawaii_complex]

Whatever Harry was working on, he could do so in....relative peace, because a cat had shown up in the common room, too.

And where there was a cat, there was a Sakaki trying to pet it.

And when Sakaki tried to pet it, it inevitably bit her hand.

And decided not to let go.

[imawizard]

"That cat is biting you," Harry said, eyes wide.

Maybe she didn't notice?

[craic_killer]

"What are you even talking about?" Clare asked.

[kawaii_complex]

Sakaki....honestly didn't know.

And now Sakaki had a baseball mitt, a ponytail, and a friend.

"Um," she looked down at the mitt and then.lifted it demonstrably as she asked, "do you have a ball?"

Apparently they were going to play catch?

And she doubted Osaka had one.

Though it was incredibly strange that Osaka was even there...

"What the hell is happening here today?" Five demanded, making a face like this all offended him. Which was, you know, basically what he'd be making anyway.

Lucky him.

[imawizard]

"No one knows, all right?" Harry said, with just a touch of hostility. "It's affecting everyone."

[apocalypsehow]

Five huffed out an annoyed sigh. "It better be affecting everyone."

[noonedecidesmyfate]

Belle, tinier than usual, was giving Five such side-eye right now.

"Why are you here?"

[apocalypsehow]

"Why shouldn't I be here?" Five asked, looking waaaay too shocked.

Lana came in for some tea, wearing a lovely witch's hat. She side-eyed Harry a bit. "Shouldn't you be doing that outside?"

[mylandmyrules]

Maybe he was outside, Lana. Just look at Nell.

"This very strange, flying about on a broom. Inside. Or... But... you have a lovely hat?"

[unusual_sith]

"Thank you," Lana said grimly, even though the hat was gone now. "I'm not sure where it came from." Was it trouble? Did she need to take care of it?
