( ` looks at her worriedly as she seemed rather unsure ) Uhm. Well, if you say so. ( ` noticing her actions, his hand suddenly grabbing a hold of her arms, wanting to at least help ) Are you sure? You seemed really not yourself today? Maybe at least sit down for awhile? Have you’ve eaten anything today? Or do you want me to carry you.. You must be still dizzy with how you fell. ( ` chewed on his bottom lip, slightly embarrassed upon the continuous questions he had managed to let out, thinking he babbled to much.. more than he should have actually ) Well then, alright. But at least rest for awhile, do you want to sit over there? ( ` points at the nearest bench-like around the hall ) 

[huffyerim]

{'she flashes him a look of shock as his hand grabs her arms, stiffening up momentarily before relaxing. She isn't sure how to react towards his continuous questions so she lets her smile widen ever so slightly. Her hand comes up to her mouth to muffle out her quiet chuckles, though she's touched that he worries for her.} Yes, I'm sure that I'm fine. I have eaten, thanks for asking; you don't have to carry me, I'll be fine. {'she breaks away from his hold and brings her hand up to his shoulder, squeezing it lightly in reassurance} {'she brings her gaze to the direction of the bench he's pointing at, nodding her head to agree with his suggestion.} Ah... Alright. I can live with resting for a while. {'hesitantly starts walking towards the bench, turning her head back after a few seconds to make sure he's following;he is. She sits down once she's at the bench, clenching and opening her eyes multiple times to shake off her tiredness.} How have you been, Himchan-sshi?

3 A.M. || Gyuri & Yerim

[ggyulpuff-deactivated20131025]

(/Gyuri nodded. Himchan. She smiled at the name, with such a name he must be funny. Gyuri couldn’t stifle a yawn.) I think I should go back to bed. Will you be okay be yourself? (/Gyuri looked at Yerim, watching the older Hufflepuffs face with concern. She didn’t want to leave her alone, but she felt better now she had a friend.) 

[huffyerim]

{'Yerim smiled back at Gyuri, touched that her face showed concerned. She nodded and waved her hand off in the direction of the dormitory} Hmm. Of course I'll be okay. You should go to sleep, you must be tired. {'she reached out to hold onto Gyuri's hand, squeezing it lightly to show that she meant what she said.} I'm used to sleep deprivation.

{` Kaeun watched the pretty girl approach from the mirror, one hand still patting, though slower now, until it paused. she smiled and let her hand drop to grip the sinks’ edge instead. she was pleased that the other girl seemed to be friendly and one who was willing to talk, because Kaeun loved to be social. She didn’t have many opportunities with her load of seventh year work these days, so she jumped at any chance that she got} What had you frustrated? {` she asked, knowing the feeling extremely well. It seemed that she was always cursing some book or snapping some quill when things weren’t going well with homework or studying or projects; anything school related really. it honestly just drove her crazy a bit and she was pleased, although she’d never say that out loud, to know that she wasn’t the only person who reacted so violently towards the work} Here {` she just so happened to have a pretty good stain removing potion in her bag. since she was always in the library or some where that wasn’t her dorm, she carried a small vial of it with her just in case she got herself into situations like these, which could be counted on. she rummaged in her bag, crouching down, her hand digging through spare quills, old rolls of parchment, even receipts from a recent shopping trip, until she finally extracted it from the bottom} This should help you get the color out. {` she said, holding her hand out with the small vial resting in her palm} It’s a pretty strong concoction. My mothers grandmother took an old one and then added a bit of her own to it and this is the result. I haven’t met a stain that it can’t clear {` she said rather proudly, even though anything that her grandmother might have made or not made had nothing to do with her}

[huffyerim]

{'At the sight of the girl smiling, Yerim returned her actions with a shy smile of her own. She isn't exactly sure why the girl suddenly looked so happy, but she didn't question it any further. She lets her eyes fall on the other girl, noticing how Kaeun seemingly brightened up at the chance to talk to someone. While Kaeun seemed to be a social person, Yerim saw herself as generally anti-social. Yerim wasn't necessarily afraid of putting herself out to people, she just found that she got tired after talking to people for long periods of time. She did experience moments in which she was energized and willing to talk to people, this being one of those moments.} Huh? {'a tired sigh escapes her lips, her bright eyes dimming ever so slightly.} Oh, it was just school work, nothing too serious. {'she tried not to complain too much about how tired she was from school. Being frustrated from school work was something all students experienced, so she felt no need to elaborate. Besides, she knew that many of her schoolmates were going through much more troubling times; her being tired was certainly not as important as other's problems.} {'she lets out a small "hmm" and raises her eyebrows, watching as the other girl searched her bag for something unknown to Yerim at the moment. It was amusing to see the variety of items Kaeun kept in her schoolbag. From the looks of it, it seemed like the other girl was quite busy. That or she just spent all her time in the library and never really thought about cleaning out her bag. Her lips curl up into a small smile when she sees the small vial resting in her outstretched hands. A warm feeling spreads across her chest, something that honestly surprises her. She knew that Kaeun did not see her as anything other than a mere classmate who might have some anger issues when it comes to school, but she felt touched that the girl would share her potion.} Thank you. {'she speaks in a quiet tone, trying to be as sincere as possible. She reaches out to hold the vial carefully and brings studies it carefully. It didn't look extremely special, but she did not doubt that it would work.} Ah... How do I use it though?

( ` waves for the last time, his head facing the direction of his friends before he turned around and tilting his head to face his path, not even noticing someone was actually in front of him and he was caught surprised and unprepared upon seeing a person fell infront of him, didn’t even had a chance to actually catch her before she did, furrowing both his brows upon recognizing her ) - ( ` clears his throat, wanting to catch her attention ) well, if it wasn’t for yerim-ssi. are you okay? did something happened to you? you don’t look okay, are you sick? ( ` he tilts his head sideways to take a good look of her face ) want me to take you to the hospital wing? ( ` worriedly looks at her )

[huffyerim]

{'her face flushes even more as he speaks, her head nodding lamely as if she's in some trance. Her vision is spinning from the fall, something she would rather keep to herself, not wanting to make him even more worried; she blinks multiple times to clear her vision.} Ugh... Hello there Himchan-sshi. I'm fine right now. I'm not sick... I'm just slightly ... clumsy. {'lets out a sheepish smile along with an awkward laugh, her head ringing due to the after effects of the fall. She lifts herself upwards, almost falling a few times but manages to to regain her balance. Her face forms into a grimace at that thought of the Hospital wing} I think I'll be okay without going to the Hospital wing, it's only a hit to the head. Nothing too serious. {'flashes a real smile this time, trying her best to convince him that she'll be okay without going to the infirmary.}

Ah, you really think so? (/her smile seemed to widen a little more; her lips pursed for a moment as she shook her head) No, I’m not familiar with its meaning.

[huffyerim]

Ah... Never mind then. I was just wondering if you did. {'her eyes narrow slightly as silence fall between the two girls. She clears her throat.} How long have you been going to Hogwarts? I hope I don't seem rude asking that....

3 A.M. || Gyuri & Yerim

[ggyulpuff-deactivated20131025]

(/Gyuri looked at Yerim, a bit surprised. She thought the older Hufflepuff had tons of friends. At Yerim’s asking Gyuri tried not to frown.) Well…I was in the hallway and I said hi and soon we were walking to the grounds and I guess I made him a bit angry. (/Gyuri didn’t want to admit that she had been a bit of a brat. She had admitted that she wasn’t fond of Slytherin’s and his response wasn’t what she had expected so she became angry at him and then walked away to leave him alone. She hadn’t talked to him since.)

[huffyerim]

{'her eyes meet Gyuri's, not really sure why the younger girl would be so surprised about her lack of friends. She was still relatively new to this school, and she only spoke when necessarily. If anything, Yerim avoided getting people to pay attention to her.} {'Yerim lifts up her eyebrows, feeling more curious than ever, but she chooses not to say anything; Gyuri seemed to not want to talk about it anymore, so she decided to let the topic go.} I haven't seen him around anymore, so I guess he's out of the picture. The Ravenclaw prefect, Himchan, is nice. 

[ravensica]

(/she tilts her head slightly, giving a small nod of her head as she absently fumbles with her robe) It’s lovely to meet you, Yerim. I’m Jung Jessica.

[huffyerim]

Jung Jessica? Hmm, that's quite a lovely name. {'her lips curve up into a slight smile} Do you know the meaning of it?

Hey. (/Raises hands with a sideways grin.) Take it or leave it, it’s the best I’ve got at the minute. (/Pulls his hat down and flips it over in his hands.) Although it seems you’re not telling me the whole story? (/Raises a brow and leans to nudge your shoulder with his own.) It’s alright, you’ll figure it out sometimes when it’s right.

[huffyerim]

{'she shoots him an apologetic smile} I know, and I'm sorry if I'm coming off as rude right now. I can just image them being afraid if an owl suddently dropped a letter off. Ha. {'she turns her head away, her gaze on a random piece of grass} You're correct. I'm not exactly telling the whole story, for personal reasons of course. {'she brings her gaze up when his shoulder touches hers}  Let's just say that I'm not comfortable speaking about the whole situation.

{` thankfully, the other didn’t seem too perturbed by her being there and she turned back towards the mirror, heaving a big sigh as she watched her own reflection. She pressed her fingers against the bags under her eyes, secretly thinking that she wished there were a spell to reduce them; she knew muggles were always coming up with ways to conceal unpleasant eyesores on their bodies and Kaeun wished the wizarding world would do a bit more in that regard. For now, she settled for applying a bit more makeup under her eyes. She noticed, as the girl came closer, that she seemed to have been in a bit of a mess herself. She gave the other a once over before smiling} Wow, seems like somebody got mad at their quill. Or ink bottle, rather {` she said with a good-natured laugh. She herself had dropped, spilled, and smashed her ow nfair share of ink bottles so she knew exactly the feeling that the other girl must be going through.} Last time, it was a bottle of rainbow color-changing ink, and I had an arm that couldn’t decide which color to be. I still can’t get the rest of it out of that t-shirt, so it’s still feebly trying to change color, though I think the effect is wearing off because they all seem to be different shades of pale browns now {` she said with a laugh}

[huffyerim]

{'she watched as the girl turned to face the mirror, seemingly studying the small bags under her eyes, something that Yerim was all too familiar with. With school in session, it seemed like no amount of hours of sleep could get rid of the annoying dark circles underneath her eyes. Yerim didn't own any fancy eye cream, nor did she wear makeup, so she would have to learn to live with the dark coloring under her eyes. It was after those thoughts where she  took a moment to take in the girl's appearance; she was fairly tall and thin, with long light brown hair. Very pretty, Yerim thought to herself. Her head naturally leaned downwards, her gaze on the floor rather than the mirrors, as she walked towards the sink, the black ink, now dry, stuck on her skin. Her head snaps up as she hears the girl addressing her, a sheepish smile starting to form on her lips.} Not necessarily, I was frustrated and banged my fist onto the desk I was using. Somehow the ink bottle tipped over and spilled. {'she motions her hand towards the crumpled shirt sitting ontop of the sink and to her right shoulder} This ended up being the results of it... I wouldn't have been upset about this mess had I been calm moments before. {'she lets out a laugh of her own as she listens to the girl explain about the rainbow color-changing ink incident, her annoyance over her spilled ink now in the back of her mind} I'm glad that the color changing property is dimming down. Hopefully it'll stop changing colors in the near future. {'she turns on the faucet, her focus now on getting the ink off; she cupped her left hand and scooped the water towards her right arm, the ink slowly turning the water black} Kim Yerim, I'm a sixth year Hufflepuff. {'she suddenly speaks after silences overcomes the two of them.}

✎ the black journal -- 'kyr // 'ksj

{'she sat with her legs straight out, her black journal resting on her lap as she scribbled down all her thoughts on her problems, which seemed to not want to leave her alone today. She lets out a frustrated sigh as her head rolls back, hitting the wall during that process. Her thoughts are a mess, and her words aren't coherent, which annoys her to no end. She shuts her journal, seeing no use in writing when she can't properly formulate any sentences. She stands up and lightly dusts off her uniform, figuring that a nice hot shower would help calm her down, and perhaps then she'll be able to think straight. She places her journal on top of her books; it holds a lot of importance to her but in this moment she's quite careless, she doesn't even notice that it falls off the the stack of her books, practically waiting for someone to read her inner thoughts.} {'it isn't until she's in the Hufflepuff basement that she realizes that her journal is gone. Panic sets into her system as she quickly dashes out of the basement, ignoring the weird stares by random students as she passes by. Luckily, the journal sits where it was dropped; however, her heart beat starts to race when she sees a pale hand reach down to pick up her journal.}

{'she walked with a slow pace, having just gotten out of her last class, something that both energized and tired her out. The hallways were pretty much empty, most students already at the Great Hall eating dinner. She was in no particular hurry, opting to enjoy the peace and quiet of the moment before having to go back to her very loud schoolmates. As she turned the corner, she could feel her feet get tangled into each other, her face showing a look of surprised as she fell forward onto a random pair of shoes. Groaning, she brought her face up, her hands making their way to her nose to make sure it wasn't broken. She let out a sigh of relief when she felt all the bones in tact and no crimson liquid flowing out of it. At the sound of someone clearing their throat, she brings her head up to meet a pair eyes, her face flushing bright red as she recognizes the boy}

{` Kaeun stared at the mirror, taking in her reflection. her skin seemed a bit pale and her eyes were puffy, all a result of a lack of sleep. although she had passed her O.W.Ls a year early and she was fairly smart, that didn’t mean that she wasn’t also having a hard time dealing with the work load of 7th year. it seems that her friends from previous years were not wrong in saying that nothing could be compared to N.E.W.T year and Kaeun was learning that the hard way. she pressed her fingers against the skin just below her eyes, as if willing the bags there to go away at her touch. she sighed and leaned against the sink, taking a moment to breath.} Looks like another all nighter {` she mutters to herself, preparing her trek back to the library, where she had pretty much made her home for the past two days, only coming out to eat or use the restroom, which honestly wasn’t all that often. her eyes open at the sound of someone entering the girls lavatory and she turns back around, switching on the faucet to wash her hands so that she didn’t look like she was just standing in the bathroom like some weirdo}

[huffyerim]

{'Yerim had trouble keeping her eyes opened, it was relatively early, but reading about the great wizards that had once impacted the wizarding world was not entertaining at all. A quiet sigh escaped her lips, it still only the beginning of the school year and yet she felt drained from all the studying she had to do to keep up. She let her face fall into the opened book, which had the unpleasant new book smell, something that she disliked immensely but in the moment, she didn't really care. Clenching her hands into a fist, she brought them up to the desk and banged on it a few times to release her frustrations of school. The vibrations from her hits had somehow how tipped over her little bottle of ink, the black liquid staining the edge of her books before dripping down onto her rolled sleeves and arms. Her head shot up when she realized what happened, annoyance starting to seep through her body and she mentally cursed at herself.} This is so greeat. {'she shut her book, and took out her wand, whispering a spell to clean up the mess. After throwing her school items onto her bed and grabbing an extra shirt, she set out to the nearest lavatory to clean herself up. The walk was short, thankfully; once she entered the lavatory she pulled the dirty garment off of her and threw it at an the nearest sink. Her actions seemed to catch the attention of another girl, who she shot a dry smile and muttered a small "sorry"}

[ggyulpuff-deactivated20131025]

(/Gyuri turned towards Yerim as she said the name, eyes admitting that the name was familiar to her.) Harrison? We met…and the meeting wasn’t exactly peachy. I haven’t talked to him since. (/She rubbed her palms together again.) What about Gryffindors, are there any that are particularly friendly? (/Gyuri decided right then that she wanted at least one friend from each house. She already had Yerim.) 

[huffyerim]

{'she raises her eyebrows at Gyuri's words, her curiosity piqued.} You have? {'she bites down on her lips and scrunches her nose} The meeting you had with him wasn't peachy? How so? {'she shoots the girl an apologetic look and shakes her head} I'm sorry, I haven't talked to many Gryffindors yet. {'she brings her hands together and folds them across her lap, a slightly bitter smile on her face} I don't have many friends either, so I can't suggest people for you to try to befriend.

-- // [ a brown with a tint of blue owl had sent you a letter! ] dear yerim, how have you've been? i haven't seen you around lately, i was just wondering if you're alright, or have you already have anyone for me to beat up?.... i was kidding, but anyway. are you doing well? - kim himchan

{‘a small letter sits on your bed, the brown owl long gone} 

Dear Himchan,

I’ve been doing well so far. School is tiring as always, but I’ll be fine. Ah… There’s no one I need for you to beat up as of now. Thank you though. Enough about me, tell me how you are. I bet being a prefect gets tiring at time. Try not to stress too much when on duty. Remember to eat all your meals and to sleep a sufficient amount of time. I feel like I’m starting to babble about nonsense now, so I’ll stop here. Be well, alright? 

-Kim Yerim

[huffhyeri]

Oh you’re a transfer just like me then. /grins happy that there was someone who understood leaving in their last year of school/ I’ll take your advice on getting to know my way around, and since you’re from the same house as I am… right since we have the same color of trim on our robs? Which do you prefer, Yerim or Adalynn, I mean I know I prefer Hyeri to my English name. /nods with a small smile before answering the next part/ Lisbon Portugal. I went to the Portuguese School of Magic. I’m babbling aren’t I?

[huffyerim]

{'she nods, flashing the girl a slight smile.} Yes, I am also a transfer. I believe there have been an increase on transfer students recently. I'm not exactly sure why... {'presses her lips together, pondering slightly on the question posed. Her eyes trail across the the edges of the other girl's robs and nods.} Yes, we are the very loyal Hufflepuffs. Honestly, I don't really have a preference. I'm more used to my Korean name, but I do like my English name a lot. It all depends on whatever you feel comfortable with, my dear. {'a playful glint enters her eyes as she taps the other girl's nose softly} Lisbon Portugal? That's very interesting. I went to Seoul Institute for Wizards and Witches before transferring to Hogwarts. {'chuckles softly and nods} A bit, but no worries. I babble when I talk to people all the time.

{'her face twists into a grimace, not exactly pleased with the information she received but she chooses not to comment on it any further . All the answers to the questions she's received today have not been very pleasant.} So...does that mean you would be considered the stereotypical "bad guy"? Er... actually, forget that I said that. I've asked enough questions so far. {'she glances off into the distance, deep in thought about whether or not she should share her secret. It's not that she doesn't trust Taemin, her secret just has a lot of painful memories. She does decide to tell him though, remembering how honest he was with her moments before} I-um... I had this friend. He was my best friend actually; as cliche as it sounds, I basically fell in love with him. He was my person... until about a year ago. {'her eyes darken at the vivid memory that was slowly invading her mind, her lips curving downwards into a frown, tone bitter.} I watched him get killed by someone. He was trying to protect me. It's so freaking cliche.
