Thanks very much for that Kris......sorry if I seemed impatient!

[Quinn Locksley]

Quinn was seated very quietly, very calmly, watching, always watching. People fascinated her and she observed their strange pass times and celebrations. She thought many of these awards were farces and that it wouldn’t affect her if she won or not. However, the old man called her name out. Quinn’s eyes went wide and a smug, proud sneer slithered onto her face. Slowly, quite at her leisure, Quinn made her way to the stage. Giving the old man a half hearted kiss on the cheek, she quickly snatched the award from his clutches.

Quinn stepped forward and looked at the crowd. She knew few of them and didn’t care for any other them so in her books it would be alright to tell them what she thought of them. However, a nagging in the back of her head urged her to be civil if niceties could not be adhered to. She cleared her throat and looked at the award in her hand. “What a sorry bunch of Charlie’s you all are for giving me this. There are far more rear-kicking people out there,” Quinn said with a dead pan face. “I haven’t met any other them but I’ve heard there are and when I do bump into them I’ll be sure to let them know you’re all looking for them.” She winked into the dark mass of people and left the stage.

[Lidia Cullen]

i'm not going to post anything except that I want my 10 pts. to go to Slytherin.

[Jac Shaw]

Jac, being the competitive spirit she was, jumped up as her name was called. She had known she was going to win; there had been no doubt in her mind that she would. Quickly straightening her black suit with vertical, bright orange stripes, Jac made her way to the stage. She gave the old man a one armed hug and light kiss as she took the trophy from him. “Thanks,” she said softly to him and gave him a smile.

Turning to the audience, Jac laughed. She couldn’t stop smiling and didn’t want to. She looked to Girty and winked at her. “Wow,” she said, taking a deep breath and shaking the trophy in her hand. “That’s as much as I’ve got to say: wow!” She laughed as the audience did. She quickly took a ruffled parchment out of her inner jacket pocket and unfolded it. She looked down and laughed again. “If I didn’t write it all down I’d have forgotten someone and that wouldn’t have been good.

“First of all, I’d like to thank my competitors for this category. Each one of us are daring but it seems everyone else thinks I’m more so that’s how the dice fell.” Jac looked up from her parchment and smiled. “Next, I’d like to thank my parents, Thomas and Maddisson, for all their love and support always. Ed, Trish, Al, and Lex, thanks to you guys too. Grace, Girty, Dean, Ginny, Poppy, Josh, and the really special Sophie, Ian and Elijah, thanks all for your constant support and putting up with my antics.” Jac could no longer read her hand writing so knew it was time to stop. “Thanks everyone for your votes, thanks.”

Jac waved to her parents who had been sitting next to her and left the stage.

((Oh, I did forget, Acelin's 5 points to Ravenclaw))

Admin Edit: POINTS ADDED UP TO HERE

[Erys Grace]

Alright, heres my acceptance speech then:

Arching an eyebrow at the sudden, unexpecting receiving of the award for best writing, Erys Grace couldn't help but laugh some. So the faculty had been monitoring everyones homework to see who was the neatest and prettiest at scribbling down stuff? How amusing. Still, it seemed she was the first winner to be called, and that meant something, at least a little bit. To think that the rest of the Hogwarts populous possessed messy penmanship was very uplifting, in the confidence factor, let alone amusement. Honestly though, everyone seemed so excited to get their awards and gifts.. And recent popularity, due to the hounding press mashing cameras in their faces. She wasn't as tickled as the rest of them - though still pleased, dont get her wrong -, she had a calm and collected reputation to upkeep.

Standing fluidly, the Slytherin walked gracefully towards him and accepted the award with warm fingers. Expecting some cheering from her house friends, Erys wore a confident grin, her eyes a flash of lavendar and gold. Watching the thick crowd with a short pause, she parted her lips, her responce very different to her fellow students, "I was expecting this. Thanks." So much for an acceptance speech, eh? Well, what do you expect? Tears and thank-yous? Erys perfected her writing on her own, no one had helped her.

Flashing a pleasant yet smug smile at the elderly fellow before turning back around, Erys slunk back to her seat, award clasped within her steady grip. Waving to her Slytherin friends, she sat down, staring at the 'gift' of sorts with silent pride.[/color]
