Peter gasped softly, his eyes growing big and cheeks growing pink. “No!” he exclaimed at Tilden’s ramblings. “No, no, I was just…I was just saying! If you were sick, I got stuff, yeah? I, uh, you don’t look sick. I’m sorry, I just, I just assumed.” The students nearby began groaning and rolling their eyes.

Tilden is confused, and is standing there with an open mouth scratching the back of his head for a couple of seconds. “Oh,” he says, dumb, and blinks a couple of times. “Well, then, uh, I think I’m good. Thank you for...offering. It’s really kind of you.” Tilden has been so busy with talking to Peter that he has no idea what’s going on in the match. He notices some dirt on Peter’s shoulder. “Uh dude, you have some dirt on your shoulder. I can brush it off if you want? I don’t think you’ll reach it yourself.”

“Plants are very important we wouldn’t be here without them we should at least help them out.” Emmeline nodded. “ Yes it is a bit cold out here, I think it is best if we go inside. I can draw another day. Would you like to get some hot coco with me?

“Couldn’t have said it better myself, Emmeline!” he answers, smiling happily, and beginning to walk towards the castle as they talk. “Yeah, yeah, sure. I can grab a hot chocolate with you.” Tilden loves hot chocolate, and never turns down a cup. “But only if I get whipped cream! I love with cream. Seriously.” While walking, he pulls his scarf tighter around his neck and puts his hands in his pockets.

Are you straight I can not tell if you like Peter or Emmalina or Merlene ?

Uh, do I like someone? How can I tell if I do?

‘ For Merlin’s sake- honestly, I’ll give you five galleons not to let it long again. Ten if you want. I promised to look after you; that’s what I’m doing now.’ Marlene narrowed an eyebrow at him.’Um, yes? Trust me, when I say just friends it’s just friends. Who gives a care about the other heated chicks anyway?’ she thanked him with a smile as she took the punch from him. ‘ Cheers, mate!’

“Tempting, but I don’t know..” he bites his lip, smiling, like he’s thinking about it. “You see, the look on my brother’s face when I win would be worth even more. I’ll think about it, but if you throw in a couple of butter beers at The Three Broomsticks, I might actually say yes.” Pretty happy with himself, he laughs at her comment. “Ah, yes, it would mean more competition anyways,” he answers, and takes a sip of his own cup. “Do you think anyone has spiked this? Wouldn’t be surprised if you date has.” He smirks as he says the word date, as he finds this going as friends-thing kind of funny.

‘ Of course, anytime the calm toots needed that.’ she nodded solemnly. ‘ Oh, I’ve noticed- please remember to shave your moustache always.’ she grins widely. ‘ Thank you and oh, I don’t know about hot- but, I’m supposedly here with Sirius as friends.’ She bit her tongue not to laugh too much at his attempt winked and gestured towards the punch. ‘ So, I reckon he wouldn’t mind if you fetched me a cup, thank you.’

Tilden smiles widely. “Yeah but you see, I have a contest with one of my brothers. The one with the most filled out moustache within the next time I visit him wins, and I’m in it for the victory, okey? It’s 5 galleons.” He raises his eyebrows to the comment about Sirius. “Oh? As friends, you’re sure about that? Ain’t all the girls going totally wild for that guy?” he asks, but still putting his own glass down and filling up another class of punch for Marlene which he hands her. “Cheers.”

‘ No worries, Tilden- I knew a drying charm if a mess would have happened.’ she smiled ligthly as she handed him  tissue to clean his hand- Marlene was in a really good mood, wanting for everyone to have the same mood as her. ‘ I am really happy you liked the gifts! And that you cleaned up really nice, really proud of that.’

“Oh it’s my super cute Secret Santa! Good thing you could’ve saved my ass if I would’ve needed it, huh?” he laughs, reassured now that he noticed who it was. “Yeah, of course I did, it was amazing. And thanks! I shaved.” Tilden really likes to talk, but actually remembers to be polite too. “Oh and you look nice by the way. Got a hot date?” He sends her a smirk, and nods towards the punch. “If you do, he should probably get you the punch, but I could do it.” The pretend-flirt-wink after this sentence is totally not a good one.

A small package was brought to Tilden on the morning of Christmas by Marlene’s snowy owl; before opening the package you had to read the letter attached to it.

‘ Morning! And Merry Christmas- or happy Christmas because I liked it more when it sounds like that.

 I hope your toots are calmed because it is I, your super cute Secret Santa, Marlene! And I bring you loads of sweets- that if you don’t like can give to anyone. Another herbology thing related: a book! I really hope you like this one, Lily says it’s new.

And…a little something for your rat friend: a wheel to practise and a little small hoodie. I know this is not much, but I honestly didn’t know what else I could give you. I hope you have an amazing day.

 MM. x ‘ 

Tilden reads the note and opens the gift as soon as he sees it, exited for what it might be. Surprised, firstly that Marlene was his Secret Santa, and secondly because of the great gift, he snickers and forces his rat into the tiny hoodie. The rat is not pleased, but Tilden truly is. He openes his night stand drawer, pulls out a piece of parchment, and scribbles down an answer. 

To my super cute Secret Santa, Marlene.

Happy Christmas to you too, and thanks for the gift! I loved it. Not sure if my rat did, but hey, too bad for him. After practicing in his new wheel I’m sure he’ll be able to win the next race. I’ve been thinking about getting some new Herbology books as well, so I’m looking forward to reading it! I’m sure it is amazing. 

Hope you are having the greatest Christmas ever, and that I’ll see you at the Yule Ball. Since you’re so cute and all. I promise that my toots are calmed now. 

Best regards, Tilden “Calmed” Toots

Tilden is late, as usual, wearing a blue suit. Running up the stairs from his dormitory, he trips and almost falls. Staying on his feet, he slows down for the last few feet to the Great Hall, brushing his hair out of his eyes and the sweat off of his forehead. “Stupid plant..” he mumbles, probably for the billionth time - not that he actually means it. He loves his plants, and probably always will. He stops outside of the doors, takes one deep breath with closed eyes, opens them, and walks inside. Since there is a lot going on in there, he is unsure of where to go. “Punch maybe...or..” Still mumbling to himself, he walks through the crowd to the punch, fills up a cup, takes a sip, and turns around to head over to a table. Problem is, there is someone standing right behind him, and he crashes into them. “Oh my god, I am so sorry,” he says, though he managed to keep almost all the punch inside of the cup. There are only a few drops on his own hand.

Peter watched the boy in front of him, cheeks and ears turning bright red as he stammered a bit. He nodded his head quickly and bit his lip. “O-oh, are you sick?” he asked and looked him over quickly as he stood behind him. “I, I’ve got tea. And a blanket in my pocket. I, I shrunk it. I’m good at that. If you, if you want it, you can have it. Here, take the tea. It’s good tea. It’s got honey in it.”

Tilden gets really confused by Peter’s rambling. He’s not sick, is he? “Uh, no, I don’t think I’m sick, I was just kidding, really..” He tries to step back from Peter, but it doesn’t work. The railing is in the way. “Seriously, I was just kidding. Do I look sick? Do you think I need a blanket and some tea?” The confusion is real in this one. “No, I can’t be sick. I have plenty of schoolwork to catch up on. Maybe I should take the tea and the blanket?” These two together is a really bad combo, “When you mention it, it is quite cold.. but don’t you want it?”

Emmeline Blushed. “ Umm I actually Came up with the spell. I made it to help some of the creatures in the forest but I just reconstructed it from plants last year when I saw how harsh the weather was on them.” She smiled down at the plants. “ Plants and animals need to be protected, So I make it my mission to help as many as I can.”

Tilden is surprised. Making spells as a student? That is quite impressive. “Wow, really? Lucky for this fellow, then,” he says, smiling at Emmeline, and stands up straight again. “You are completely right. People are dumb when it comes to these thing. They don’t understand that plants are important.” He sighs, and puts his cold hands in his pockets - he’s been out here for quite some time. “I’m starting to get a bit cold, so I’m gonna head up to the castle. Are you going to stay out here, or..?” Tilden enjoys her company, but he seriously is freezing.

marlencm:

‘ Oh, not really- it was just following me around when obviously, it’s not really safe here for a kitty.’ She narrowed an eyebrow at him, her head shaking amused at his exclamation and own laugther erupted- maybe it was a good comment. ‘ Good, it’s really good when someone appreciates their own name puns.Nobody did it to you before?’

Tilden looks around, confused by her comment. “Why isn’t it safe for cats in the park? Are there dogs here? But dogs aren’t allowed at Hogwarts...no wait, do you mean the giant squid? Or that the cat can try to climb up into the Whomping Willow?” Tilden is rambling again, but doesn’t even realise it, still lying in the grass, halfway laughing his words. “Uh, no, not quite a good one like that. More..keep your toots in your mouth, Tilden or something. Mean. Always mean. That one was actually funny.”

Are you excited for the dance-Have you got a date or someone in mind

Yes, I think it could be fun! Uhm, no, not really. I just want to dance. I might find someone cute there, I guess?

Emmeline smiled at Tilden she never seen someone so protective and into plants. “ I know a warming spell that should help the flowers, and protect them from the winter.” She lean down whispering the spell to the frozen flower. “ He should be good as new.” 

Tilden watches in ave while Emmeline is working her magic. Literally. “You.. you helped the little flower,” he says, grateful, and strokes its pedals again. “You’re saying that that spell will help it through the winter? How come I didn’t know it?” he asks, smiling up at her. “Might be because I keep my plants in the greenhouses..Professor Sprout gave me permission to keep them in Greenhouse Three, so.”

Peter nearly ended up on the ground when everyone stood up to cheer and hiss at the game. He gasped and looked all around to try to understand what was going on. “It’s, it’s okay,” he told the boy in front of him, cheeks turning pink. No, Peter, now was not the time to develop a crush on someone. He’d just sat on you! Peter bit his lip and tried to look at the game. “We could share a seat,” he told him. “I’ll stand for a bit and then you can?”

Standing with his back against the pitch,  looking at Pettigrew, he raises his eyebrows in confusion. “Eh, wh-what?” he says, thinking that he meant they could sit in the seat together at the same time. When it turns out that isn’t the case, he laughs a bit and shakes his head. “No, no, I couldn’t take your seat, you’ve earned it. You came here before me. And I just sat down in your lap.” Tilden is starting to relax, and notices that he gets quite a few angry looks from other Gryffindors - he is standing in their way. “Uh, I think I’ll just..stand. Behind you. Is that ok? There isn’t much space back there, so I’ll probably be near your back, but I’m not contagious. I promise.”

Quidditch was a huge thing for the Marauders. Absolutely huge. They never missed a game, especially since James was on the team now. It just was not acceptable. But Peter realized that his friends probably thought that he had ditched them, since he couldn’t keep up with Remus in order to find a decent seat, or one even near him at all. Peter pulled his scarlet and gold scarf up over his mouth and sighed heavily, sitting down and trying to take up the least amount of space possible. He squeaked and blushed when someone tried to sit on him. “Oh!” he exclaimed and stood up quickly, nearly knocking the other boy to the ground. “Oh, I’m sorry! You sat on me!”

While walking through the crowd, Tilden trips, ending on top of someone’s lap before almost being knocked to the ground. “Oh man, I’m so sorry, my fault,” he apologizes, looking at the boy with a sad look. “It’s really hard finding a place to sit, and I’ve been tripping in everyone’s shoes since I got up the stairs. I didn’t even manage to go to the side where all my friends are sitting, so...” he explains, getting a bit carried away, and stopping before it gets awkward. “Uh, I mean, sorry. Again.” He sighs, scratches the back of his head, and looks around for a better place to sit than in Pettigrew’s lap. Getting a bit distracted, he doesn’t even notice the sigh going through the Gryffindor crowd as one of the Hufflepuff chasers score a goal.

@pettigrins

It’s the first Quidditch game of the season, and it’s between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor. Tilden is late, due to an accident with his Venomous Tentacula George, and managed to go up the stairs to the wrong side of the stands. This means that he is currently walking through the Gryffindor crowd with all his Hufflepuff glory, scouting for somewhere to sit. He doesn’t want to miss any more of the match, so he has decided to just roll with it. How bad can it be? The looks he gets aren’t exactly the most friendly, and he is bumping into people as he is is looking for a place to sit. “Sorry..oh, I’m sorry..my bad,” he mumbles every time he does.
