Current mood: calm
Current music:lady madonna - The Beatles

Who: Terry and you!
What: Um...talking and Terry's going to the Room of Requirement
Where: Corridor going to The Room of Requirement because he's rad and knows where it is from the DA meetings.
When: Saturday morning
Why: Well why not? He needs to be social



Terry rolled out of bed, his hair sticking up every which way, and set his feet down on the carpet. Rubbing his eyes, he looked at his clock and saw it was nine thirty. He heaved a sigh and pulled on his black warm up pants, his grey sweater, and Muggle Nike shoes. He'd bought them over the summer, and found they were rather comfortable. When he stood up, his pants hung over the shoes, barely letting them show, and they moved towards the door. When he saw the first year boys who'd ruined his shirt, he grinned and pulled out his wand. Muttering, "Petrificus totalus." Out of the three, one woke. "Bye." Terry said and waved to him, waggling his fingers with a grin. The boy squirmed, but couldn't get up and saw a scared look on his face. He was tired, but he felt a sense of humor coming out already. He had to work on homework, and he wanted to get it done before lunch. Terry had found out that working in the Room of Requirement worked rather well, no one bothered him, and it had all of his needs. The dark haired boy saw his papers strewn about on one of the tables in the Common Room, and grinned when he remembered picking on the Hermione. He knew it was mean, but, it was fun and boys needed to have fun. He reached for the papers, tucked them into his bag, and heaved his bag over his shoulder. Terry started out the door, but paused at the notice board. Grinning, he pulled out a piece of parchment, he scrawled, "The Hermione Granger, got a detention in her First year at Hogwarts." Tacking it up on the board he nodded and ran his fingers through his hair to calm it down, but failed.

When he'd finished breakfast, he started towards the hallway leading to the entrance of The Room of Requirement. He remembered how to get in from when Harry started Dumbledore's Army and tought some of the students some hexes, curses, and spells they'd need to know if they wanted to defend themselves. When he thought of Dumbledore he bit at his lip and heaved a sigh. He missed Dumbledore, he liked him being the Headmaster. He was so laid back, loyal, and kind to someone if they got in trouble. Terry felt a smile pulling at his lips when he remembered the troll being the restrooms his first year. Everyone went mad, screaming, running, but he calmed them all down, and told them quietly to go back to their Common Rooms. He laughed softly and then heard footsteps behind him, padding softly down the hallway. Glancing back, he saw a shadow of someone, and felt his hair. Great, it was still sticking up.

It would come as a surprise to anyone that Harry had been in the library all night reading. He'd cleaned out at least part of the Restricted Section, which had taken hours, and was now returning to the Common Room with four books that weren't even from the Restricted Section. He hadn't even begun his homework and had no plans to do it at all. He couldn't care less if he failed all of his classes, to be honest. Sure, Hermione will get onto him about it (and for that he had no patience), but she couldn't force him to do it. Besides, he was pretty sure that Ron had the same idea, and that made her outnumbered.

He found himself taking the route that took him past the Room of Requirement. Harry hadn't been there once this year, and he suddenly felt curious as to what would appear if he went in it now. Perhaps it would be filled with the books they needed to find the horcruxes... If that was what he most needed, then wouldn't it make sense?

Quickening his pace, Harry rounded the corner...and was shocked to see Terry Boot at the end of the hall. Why was he here? The Ravenclaw Common Room was nowhere near the Room of Requirement. As he came closer, he noticed that Terry's hair was sticking up like he'd just gotten out of bed. How long had he been in the library for...?

Harry forced the disappointment off his face and managed a half smile and a non-commital wave. He tried to keep the accusatory tone out of his voice and was only somewhat successful. "What are you doing here?"

Terry saw a boy with glasses approaching him and squinted. Harry Potter. He hadn't seen him a while. "I had homework. I usually do it here, it's quiet." he said with a nod and small smile. Even though Terry didn't talk to Gryffindors much, he always made an exception for Harry, Ron, and Hermione. They were all nice, and they didn't judge by Quidditch teams. "You have homework too?" he asked with a small sigh and glanced at his book bag. He had loads of work to do, and he wanted to have time to talk to Hannah later on also. Plus, he had a detention. "I have to get mine done before my detention." he said and rolled his eyes.

Terry studied the boy, and saw he looked tired. He looked exhausted, and it looked as though he might pass out on the ground to sleep. Terry couldn't help but smile at his thoughts but quickly cleared them and thought they were rude. He shook his head and ran his fingers through his hair. "Looks like you have the hair too." he commented with a grin and nodded towards Harry's hair. It was sticking up also, almost as bad at Terry's.

Homework? Oh, right. Harry gestured to his books and shrugged. "Yeah. Loads of it, and I haven't started yet. I guess I should get on that." He started to say something else, but then just changed the subject. "What did you get detention for?" Surprisingly, Harry had managed to stay detention-free so far. Not that it was a huge surprise -- afterall, McGonagall was being much easier then usual on the three of them, and now that certain people weren't here...

Unaware of how utterly exhausted he looked, Harry put one hand on his head and futilely smoothed his hair down. The end result looked no different. "Better?"

Terry shook his head. "I hate homework." he said quietly and shifted his bag around on his shoulder. When he heard Harry ask what he got a detention for he felt his cheeks get hot, and laughed nervously. "Just being out after curfew." he said with a quick nod and a small smile.

He couldn't help but smirk at Harry trying to straighten out his hair and then listened. "Not very..." he said and shook his head. "You excited for Quidditch?" he asked. Terry wasn't sure if Harry was playing this year, what with Voldemort.

That particular punishment wasn't new to him, and just the thought made Harry smile a little bit. "That isn't so bad." He looked past Terry briefly and down the hallway, as though he was considering something... but he knew better. Harry didn't want to risk going into the Room of Requirement with someone that didn't know about the horcruxes. Who knows what would turn up...

"What?" Harry had been too distracted to catch what exactly Terry had said. "Oh... Quidditch. Yeah. I think that we have a definite chance of taking the cup this year." Not that Malfoy was ever the most intimidating Quidditch player, but at least it made things less stressful.

Terry felt his stomach flip and he nodded. If you got caught snogging it's bad. He thought and bit at his lip. "Yeah," he started with a smile. "I know. The aurors are harsh." he finished and glanced at the door. Should he go in with Harry or just pass it off as he was going somewhere else?

"Nah, Ravenclaw will win for sure." Terry argued with a smile and laughed. "You guys should be good. There's a lot of good third years out there." he explained with a nod and heaved a sigh. "I'm excited." he added in.
