“Well, you’d know me, if you wanted to go?” Mallory smiled over at him, a small part of her hoping that he would agree to come. “Oh come on!” A laugh left her lips. “You can’t say that, it’s fun!”
Josiah sighed. “I suppose it’s another excuse to be away from the house.” He shrugged, defeated. “Fine, fine. I’ll go, but you have to make it fun.” He replied with a slightly teasing smirk.
ted-xtnks:
“Don’t worry about it mate.” the blonde boy shrugged before nodding. “Yeah, I get that. This ride is a tad boring, certainly not the ride to go for if you want an adrenaline rush.” he chuckled as he looked down onto the crowd as they got higher and higher. “Well, I think the Twister looks wild, I’m a huge fan of the bumper cars though, can’t go wrong with a classic like that one.” He smiled looking over at Josiah. “What’s up with you? You okay?”
Josiah couldn’t agree more. He wasn’t an adrenaline junkie, by any means. But something even a bit more stimulating would be far better. “That’s true. I should’ve gotten on those instead. Probably will after this one, honestly.” He hadn’t played bumper cars in quite a while. “I’m alright. Family’s being... Fun. What about you?”
royalprincelockhart:
Gilderoy had seen Josiah very briefly in the mix of people wondering around the market and while he had attempted to find him, the boy had slipped away from him. He had taken a moment to look for his friend though he eventually gave up and decided that perhaps the Ferris wheel would be a good place to start with rides. Perhaps luck was on his side or something entirely different was at play but he had been given the same seat as Josiah although it seemed that the other had yet to notice. Gilderoy, at times, hated being drawn out from thoughts. It happened all too often and so he did his best to not bother Josiah.
Eventually, Gilderoy found himself simply staring out at the city. Beautiful was an understatement for the view that he was given by the ride yet it was the only word that came to him. “You’re not wrong though I believe its purpose is to give people an easy ride option or something. Anyway, it took you long enough to notice that I’m here, I’m a little hurt.” Despite this, he was smiling because at the core of it all, he was joking with the other. “How’s the holiday break going for you?”
“Makes sense. Still, they shouldn’t call it a ride. When I think of a ride, I think of that,” he replied, nodding his head toward a wooden ride that dropped probably a hundred meters. People were screaming on it. “This is a sad excuse,” he shrugged.
Josiah rolled his eyes at his friend. “Perhaps you’re just not as noticeable as you think you are.” He laughed, teasing back easily. “Merlin. Too much time with my family. They’re the best, but Merlin. Ellowyn and Rowan got in a fight last night. I mediated, but they still almost destroyed the house.” He huffed. They were infuriating, and it never seemed to end. He was there for whatever they needed, but he often wondered if any of his siblings even saw him or his efforts.
hufflehope:
She laughed looking down at all her stuff animals hugging them. “ I guess it’s kinda boring, I never been on one of these before and we can see the whole market from here.” She said tunring to the boy. “ Yeah I’m not much of a socialite either. I only came because it was better than being at the castle.”
“Oh the market is a lot of fun, I never been to something so big and wonderful like this. I have 6 I think. They are so adorable,”
Josiah nodded. “Ah, you’re at the castle for break? Sorry to hear it. I just heard it’s more captivating then fun over break.” He hadn’t stayed at the castle for break, ever. His family wouldn’t allow it. Even if, when at home, he’d be gone the whole time anyway.
“Merlin. You must be good at the games, then. I haven’t tried any yet, but I doubt I’d do very well, anyway.” He said honestly. “Have you named them yet?”
hufflehope:
Hope find the market to be wonderful it was perfect and as much as she missed her family she was enjoying her self very much. She played a few games and lost horribly but everyone was so nice and in the Christmas spirit that a few people offered to win something from her.
Now with an arm full of stuff animals she decided she should see the best view from the Ferris wheel. Once she sat down she smiled about the boy, but he was in his own world so she looked out at the view. She turned to him when he spoke. “ Really? I like it. It’s so beautiful up here. Are you not enjoying the market?” She frowned.
Josiah looked at her with all the stuffed animals in her arms. He couldn’t help a loud laugh. “You’re drowning in fluff,” he said playfully. “It’s a nice view, that’s for sure. But slowly rotating in a circle is pretty boring, I think.” He gave a shrug. “I’m not much for parties or social gatherings.”
He didn’t have a mass amount of friends, and most of them didn’t go to events like these. “I can see you’re enjoying yourself. How many of those you got?”
ted-xtnks:
Ted enjoyed the Ferris Wheel, he loved looking over the markets and watching all the bright lights twinkling. It was the closest thing to flying when he was younger. Muggles were always so interested in flying which is why Ted was completely captivated by Quidditch when he got to Hogwarts. Although he now knew very well what flying felt like by being chaser on the Hufflepuff team, he still enjoyed going on the Ferris Wheel. It reminded him of his childhood and how he thought he was bigger than everyone else.
Ted looked up when Josiah got on the ride and he was about to say something but decided to stay quiet. The Ravenclaw boy seemed as if he didn’t want to talk and Ted could understand that. Looking out, he turned his attention to him when he heard him speak. “Hey. I didn’t want to interrupt your deep deep thoughts so I didn’t say anything when you got on. And yes, you’re right, this ride is extremely uneventful, though, it probably isn’t so fun if you have a fear of heights.”
Josiah offered a terse smile to him. “Yeah, I was pretty lost in my thoughts. My apologies, I didn’t mean to ignore you,” he said honestly. He glanced out the Ferris Wheel window at the lights and festivities below. “I’m not afraid of heights, I just think rides should be more exciting than slowly rotating in circles.”
He looked over at the other with a sigh. “Suppose I’ll have to go shoot at some balloons next. Have you seen any rides around here that aren’t this boring?” He chuckled.

Molly was still soaking in the Market, it was absolutely wonderful. The red head had always enjoyed things like this. It was a wonderful way to spend time with family and catch with friends was an added bonus. She was enjoying the Ferris Wheel, it was just too bad that it had to end.
“I was admiring the view,” she replied softly, recognising Josiah from school. “Is it not to your taste?”
“Yeah, the view is nice, I’ll give it that.” It was dark out, but all the lights glittering on the horizon, and the sounds of fun below was pleasant. That was the only part he liked about the ride. Otherwise, it was rather unexciting. “Not really. I can’t say I’m much of a thrill seeker, but I have to say that this wheel is pretty boring.”
Josiah had been bored at Christmas Market, if he was being completely honest. He’d ate his fill, drank a little, and hadn’t come across too many people he’d wanted to talk to. Eventually, he’d given up a little and got on a Ferris Wheel. It didn’t have a base, and he assumed it was some sort of levitating charm that held up the massive, slowly rotating wheel.
He sighed, about four minutes in to the ride and looked over at the other person who was sitting in there. He’d been in his own world, and hadn’t even realized that it was someone he knew. “I have to say, this ride is just as uneventful as I thought it would be.”
malady-mallory:
“Avoiding family is all a part of Christmas.” Mallory grinned, and she let her mouth fall open for a moment as he asked her about the Christmas Market. “What, you’ve never been to one before? Josiah! What have you been doing every Christmas time? It’s this huge fair basically with rides and games and so many market stalls and loads of food. It’ll be amazing.”
“Couldn’t agree more. I love ‘em, don’t get me wrong. But I need a lot of space from them.” He said honestly. Josiah laughed at her response. “I’ve been walking around, avoiding social gatherings because I never know anyone there.” He raised a brow. “That sounds a little like torture,” he joked.
malady-mallory:
“I think it will be.” Mal smiled, and she cocked her head to the side as she looked at her friend - Josiah was probably one of the people that she was going to miss most over the Christmas holidays, although obviously not as much now if she was going to see him at the market. “You could come with me if you want? I was probably going to just go alone anyway, it may be nice to have some company.”
Josiah shrugged. “I suppose. I probably won’t be doing anything anyway. Accept avoiding the family, of course,” he said with a little smile. “What even is a Christmas Market?” He chuckled.
Josiah was on a walk. He always seemed to be on a walk, when he was home. His family was wonderful, but they were driving him a little crazy, as usual. His younger sister had had some issues that he’d tried to resolve, but it had ended in her slamming the door in his face. His brother, of course, came after him, but he’d already slipped out the door.
Not being allowed to cast warming spells outside of Hogwarts was a little obnoxious, as it was completely freezing outdoors. Still, it was better than being at home. He’d been strolling near the piers, when he heard a voice behind him. He turned, surprised to find someone he knew. “Oh, hey. Didn’t think I’d run into you out here. How have you been?”
“Did you hear that there’s going to be a Christmas market?” Mallory bounded over to the person that she had spotted, recognising the face from the Hogwarts corridors. “I’m so excited, aren’t you?”
“I did. You think it’ll be worth it to go?” He asked. He’d been talking a walk, and was a little shocked to find his Hogwarts friend out and about. He wasn’t much for social gatherings, so he hadn’t been planning to go.
dolores-bby:
“You’re not going to get one muttering to yourself like that, unless a date with Promfery is what you’re looking for.” The blonde said, not looking up from the book she was pretending to read. She sighed and un-crossed her legs, getting up and walking towards him before grabbing his wrist. “Come on whisper boy, we’re going on a date.”
She was right, and Josiah knew that. “I’m not very good with women. Date-wise.” He said, pressing his lips together. He stayed where he was for a moment before she grabbed his wrist and pulled him along. “O-oh, okay.” He blinked, unsure of what to say about it. “Did you have anywhere in mind?”
leenashafiq:
Leena looked towards the source of the voice and gave a small wave when she recognised the Ravenclaw. “Yes it is,” she agreed with a smile. “I’ve always thought that the plants looked the most beautiful at this time of day. What brings you to the greenhouse so early in the morning?”
Josiah nodded in agreement. He wasn’t in the greenhouse often in the mornings, but with the sun coming up, it did cast a rather pleasant light on it all. “Couldn’t sleep. I haven’t been in here in months, figured I should refresh my memory.”
royalprincelockhart:
“It was decent tasting and I’ll get better the more I practice. I’ve got many talents, Jos and cooking isn’t one of them but I’m willing to improve.” A roll of his eyes and he knew not to take the other seriously. “Did we time me getting ready once and it wasn’t all that long at all. I believe it was somewhere in the five minute range, I wake up naturally handsome just gotta tweak a few things.” A small chuckle left Gilderoy as he watched Josiah start on the mash potatoes once more without seemingly giving the roast a second thought. “Adventures are out there to be had, there’s no point in staying home even if it is a break. I’ll be going home this break too, Judith and Emilia are coming home this year too so it’ll be nice to see them.” At the mention of his sisters, he pushed the plate of food in front of him away no longer really feeling that hungry. “I told you they both went away for medical school last year right?”
“Then you and my mum need to have a chat. She could make an amazing meal out of beets and acorns if she had to.” They’d never gone hungry before, but if the time came, he knew she could make it work. “Maybe so, but the longest you took was somewhere around an hour, if I recall correctly.” Josiah gave a nod. “Yeah, I think you mentioned it. You miss them?” He asked, somewhat cautiously.
thefoxychaserxox:
“You and me both,” Eden waved off as she looked up from her book. “Though I don’t actively look for one. But, you seem like you need it. Which lovely lady do you have in mind, hey?”
Josiah nodded to her. He hadn’t actively sought a date, well, ever. Until now? “Ah, maybe Hope. Scamander. I don’t really know, I just think I need to move on from a past relationship. No idea where to start, honestly.”
hufflehope:
Hope smiled at all the House Elves they passed as she moved to the back fridge opening it up, smiling pulling out some fresh pasta noddles. “ I wanted to move back to Bulgaria at first, but then I decided maybe somewhere in America. I like the country a lot.”
“Ah, I didn’t know you were from Bulgaria,” he said, a little surprised. He watched her pull out the pasta and prep. “They do have an interesting history, that’s for sure. And political system.”
