Piano wing.

First topic message reminder :

Opening the door she sighted in relief, the room was empty. Walking in Hadley closed the door behind her and sat down by the piano. taking in the atmosphere she just sat there in silence before she carefully started to try different chords. It sounded good, she played a whole melody and for the first time back on Hogwarts, she genuinely smiled. Hadley sang clear tones with her playing, to warm up her voice. Now finally alone, all by herself, she could express herself and the inner feelings she kept locked away. With an long ''Ooh'' she began to sing with such an emotion and empathy in her clear voice.

''Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me.''

Apollonius was aghast. 'You know an awful lot about mugglecraft for a witch... though I'm sure the interest is only anthropological... and not personal...'

The girl shrugs, "I had to spend the summer in Paris... Ministry business, my dad I mean. He brought me with him and we had to disguise ourselves as muggles so he bought me a sort of transportational computer. He let me figure that out..." She smiles remembering the summer. "Also tried lots of different food. They eat bloody snails there!"

'French wizards eat them too, so it must be a French thing.' Apollonius said, laughing. 'A wise elf once said "infinite diversity in infinite combinations."'

"I just prefer not to eat them... Found it rather shocking even if I did go to Beauxbatons... born in Britain but went to Beauxbatons. Pretty strange, aren't I?" she smiles turning a page.

Elad nodded to Carly "There you are Apollo"

She gives a polite nod back and places the book back in her bag. Carly stares at the sheet music for a moment before she puts her elbow on the keys and leans on it. "Ouch, that one sounds bad..." she laughs.

'Here I am, Elad.' Smiled Apollonius. 'And yes Carly, that's not the best I've heard.'

"Knowing me, I'd probably write a song about how horrid it sounds. Of course it'll sound horrible because it'll have the random elbow smashes here and there," she laughs, putting her other elbow on the piano, creating another hideous sound.

'I'm not the best at writing sheet music, but I don't think there's a standard notation for "elbow smash".' Said Apollonius cheerily.

She rolls her eyes at the boy, "I'll just draw this... thingy..." She laughs and shows him a small symbol made up of random scribbles, somewhat in the shape of an elbow. "There we go. That's that," the girl smiles at Apollo, a grin on her face.

'How very inventive of you.' Said Apollonius. 'Clearly we have ourselves a prodigy here.'

"What do you mean?" Carly murmurs, her face turning a light tint of red. She waits for an answer and ponders the question in her head.

'I have no idea.' Said Apollonius, laughing again. He spoke a little self-consciously. 'I think I was just eager to fill the silence.'

"probably... best... I leaveh.. " he said cold " I.. just dont fit in this.. eh.. room.." he continued even colder

'Something wrong, Jonny?' Asked Apollonius, unperturbed.

The girl looks at Jonny, pure confusion spread across her face. "What do you mean?" she questions him, "You seem... mad."

He enters the room and casually waves, finally returning after a month of Durmstrang. He had a healed scar across his fave ad was more muscular. "Hey guys." He said carefully.

Smiling she jumps up and runs to hug him, "Eric! I missed you." Her smile fades for a moment then returns as she waves away a stupid thought. (OoC: I think you just gave me a mini heart attack XDD)

"Hey." He smiles warmly at her, and kissed her.

OoC: How come?

She kisses him back, wrapping her arms around his neck. "I love you," she whispers. Pulling away she smiles at Apollo. "Me and Apollo are pretty good friends now. He helped me with some chords," Carly says clearly. (OoC: I really don't know. But maybe it's the fact that when I opened the page-like-internet-thing... WEBPAGE! My sister walked into the room and changed the channel and there was blood and guts everywhere... scared me... a lot. Mini heart attack worthy scene XD)

'Sahaif. Welcome back to Hogwarts.' Said Apollonius.

Gabrielle was bored so she had taken to wandering aimlessly around the castle, her head stuck in the clouds, musing over a book she had recently read. She decided to just see where she would end up if she just chose her directions at random. Interestingly enough, as she opened the door to the piano room, her mind so far in the clouds that she didn't realize that there were other students in the room until she had closed the door behind her. She was instantly rooted to the spot, her light blue eyes wide with shock and perhaps a bit of fear. She was a rather reclusive girl so she didn't take to people too quickly, often being shy and timid. "Erm . . . Sorry, if I'm interrupting something, I didn't mean to just barge in" she said quickly, softly, her eyes falling to the floor. Usually when she wandered like this she would find herself somewhere alone a particularly delightful spot for the moment where she could read and relax, apparently she hadn't chosen her directions so well that day.

'Ah hello. I don't think we've met. Von Hohenheim. Apollonius von Hohenheim.' Said Apollonius, extending his hand.

Looking up Carly noticed the girl. "I don't believe I've met you either," she says identifying the girl as a Gryffindor when she looks at her tie. "Carly Quinn. Nice to meet you!" she grins.

A little startled by the introductions she smiled slightly, "Gabrielle Phoenix, a pleasure to meet you both," she said softly, shyly taking Apollonius's hand as her free reached up and tucked a stray strand of blonde hair behind her ear.
