[Corridors] Oops?

[Rieko Daniels]

It wasnt exactly late, so some students were still prowling around the corridors. Rieko was one of them. Her paws were firmly on the ground, and that was the way she liked it thank-you! Ooff, Hey! You big lump! Put me down! she thought angrily as she felt her paws come off the ground and was turned around to see the face of someone staring back at her, growling from the back of her throat, Rieko used her paws to push herself off the idiot, of course the landing wasnt very good as she landed on her side, growling a bit more, she turned and ran down the corridor, people jumping out of the way as a tiger cub came bounding towards them.

Someone put their hands out as if to catch her Dont you dare she thought to herself and snapped at the hands as she ran past. Running into another corridor she grinned inside, no-body picks Rieko up in human form! Why should they be allowed to pick her up just because she looks like an overgrown stripy cat?

As she looked forward again in this new corridor, Rieko realised she was heading right for suits of armour Oh no! she thought and tried to skid to a halt, but she was going to fast and she couldnt stop herself as shr crashed right into them. Causing a terrific loud crashing sound, Rieko lay underneath four suits of armour in her tiger form. She changed back to her human form and pushed herself out from underneath them, a hand on her head as she sat on the floor looking at the mess she had made.

"Uh... Oops?" she half laughed to herself.

[Blake Adams]

Blake was heading toward the library, once again he had left a piece of work until the last minute. However it was not in his character to rush anywhere, calm and collected as usual. He ran his hand through his hair and winked at a couple of girls walking in the opposite direction. It always made him chuckle to simply gauge there expressions from the attention.

Blake had practically reached the library when a commotion broke out behind him, being as inquistive as he was, he decided to go have a ganders. He turned a corner to see a white blur slide straight past him and into a near by suit of arms. A large crash echoed through the corridor, rebounding off the walls.
A small grin spread across his features, it had never been quiet at hogwarts, didn't matter what year people were in, they still enjoyed creating commotions.

Chuckleing he headed for the fallen suit of armor. He withdrew his wand from his pocket and with a flick of the wrist, it repaired itself in a rather elegant fashion.
"Are you ok? Or do you collide into things for your own amusement?!" He asked the culprit with a wide grin.

[Rieko Daniels]

Rieko sat there open mouthed and wide eyed as she looked at the broken suits of armour. This really wasnt a good thing to do, for all she knew professors could be running up here to see what the commotion was and would find Rieko sat there just staring at it.

She glanced up at a boy when she heard a voice, he wasnt a professor she knew that much, though his comment made her a little airiated. "Yeah because I love the headaches that comes with them too" she said, standing up and watching him repair them. "Im fine, wasnt looking where i was going" Too many people pawing my tiger form she thought to herself. "Stop grinning like an idiot you're making me uncomfy"

Rieko began to brush herself down, falling on a dusty marble floor was bad enough, but being buried under tons of dusty armour was even worse, her robes looked grey now, not black.

[Blake Adams]

"Oh yeah man, the headaches are the best bit! They help no end with studies!" Blake chuckled, he would have offered to help the girl up off the floor, however he had learnt from experience that people who had just been embarrassed infront of many a person could turn quite nasty with very little effort.
Instead he watched as she got to her feet, robes coated in dust, apparently unharmed by the venture.

"Perhaps you should pay more attention to your surroundings in the future then?! And as for the smiling remark. It is simply not possible. Smiling, like laughing is a medicine indeed. As well as the fact it requires fewer muscles to smile than it does to frown. Though I shall become solemn if you wish it?"
His smile disappeared and he bowed to the girl. Preparing himself to turn around and walk away down the corridor on his way to the library once more.

As he turned he said with a smile "Then I apologise for coming to your aid, I shall consider it more carefully if it were to happen again."
However he knew this would not be the end of the conversation, it would highly impolite on her part, and no one could let Blake leave without making his aquaintance first.

[Rieko Daniels]

"Sure they do" Rieko spoke tonelessly, running a hand through her hair and moving a strand out of her eyes, this guy was just too cheerful. She turned to look at him, putting her hands on her hips. "Headache's are wonderous things with endless possiblities" Rieko rubbed her temple which was now throbbing uncontrollably, "God, I need a paracetamol or something" she mumbled to herself.

"Pay more attention?" She asked sarcastically, "How the hell can I pay more attention to my surroundings when i'm running away from people who insist on picking me up?" Rieko was beginning to feel stressed but only because she knew she should have been paying more attention to where she was going. Who does this guy think he is anyway, telling me what i should or shouldnt do? Insolant brat!
"Well then let it be your medicine because smiling and laughing will only make my head hurt more" she groaned, finding herself back on the floor and wondering how she got there, "This day is just not going right"

Rieko watched as he turned to walk away, Huh? she thought as she tilted her head to the side again, Oh hell no! No-body walks away from me! Besides, someone might try and paw me again! "O-oh hey wait!" she called after him, running after him except she had turned back into her tiger form and ran infront of him, standing on her hind legs and putting her paws on his legs, trying to give him puppy dog eyes.

[Blake Adams]

As Blake began walking away, he heard a noise that sounded as if she had fallen upon the floor once again. Though he believed it to be his duty to help people if it was required of him. He did not wish to turn around again, if he did his walk away would not of had the same desireable effect.

A small grin spread across his features as he heard the sound of shuffleing behind him as well as a call. In the corner of his eye he saw the small white blur once again, as it spun around and stopped infront of him.
Glancing down towards his feet he came face to face with a small tiger cub.
"Well what have we got here then? An Animagi amongst us, who'd of thought it." He said with a smile

Blake watched as the Tiger cub stood on its hind legs and placed her paws on his shins.
"Awww, bless. You could perhaps even pass as cute in such a form!" He stated with a mischevious grin, and hopefully a tone in which she would not take offense from the comment.

[Rieko Daniels]

She was a bold sort of character, not letting anyone forget her easily was what Rieko loved to do. Though being in her animagi form in front of so many people, and being an unregistered animagi at the same time could prove to be quite dangerous.

Rieko's paws were pretty big, like most tiger cubs and she was finding it hard to keep her paws on his shins without slipping. Her whiskers twitched as he said animagi and turned to look behind her nervously, thinking Not so loud!

Rieko stepped back at his comment and looked at him, taking a leap so her tiger form was heading straight to his chest and into his arms, however as she did this, she reverted back to her human form and landed ontop of him. "Pass as cute?" she fired, though smiling at the same time, "I am cute! In or out of animal form! Got it?" she laughed.

[Blake Adams]

It Came to Blakes attention that as he said Animagi, she became somewhat twitchy. For reasons of which he could guess. However if what he believed was true, then why would she blatently run through the corridors drawing attention to herself.
However the thought left him as the cub Pounced upon him, though to his surprise, when she actually reached his arms she had transformed once again to her human self.

Blake had thankfully grown good at being able to disguise his shock over the years. However he believed it best to put all his efforts into catching her. She had been on the floor enough already today or so it would have appeared.
Thankfully he caught her with ease. And Supressing a grin put on a serious and formal voice and replied to her sudden outburst with a "If you say so Ma'am!"

Blake broke eye contact with her, to look up at his surroundings, a young boy passed with an interesting expression. To which Blake responded with a jerk of the head and a cheeky smile which read 'Yeah you know it!'

[Rieko Daniels]

Rieko had a feeling he had guessed she was an unregistered Animagi, but hey, she lived for danger and she couldnt think of anything more dangerous than running afoul of the Ministry when everyone knew they were on the rampage.
Thankfully for Rieko, he didnt let his surprise at her changing suddenly back to human form, he seemed to catch her with ease, which of cause she thanked hm for silently.

Rieko gave him a playful punch in the chest and put on a fake hurt expression, "I do say so!" though couldnt help a smile breaking through. "I think it, I say it! Sometimes" she added as an afterthought. She hadnt even thought of getting down, for all she knew she could be heavy to him, though god help him if he even said anything along those lines, Rieko was highly paranoid when it came to weight issues.

She followed his gaze and her eyes found a younger boy looking at them both, she gave a sort of smile, trying to send across the expression of, this isnt what it looks like! Though knowing full well the boy was going to believe... theres a thought, she didnt even know his name and here she was, in his arms! "You know, people usually like to know other peoples names before they find themselves in the firemans lift" she laughed, "Im Rieko!"

[Blake Adams]

Blake tried to put on a pained expression when she hit him playfully in the chest.
"Careful ye, I don't want a punctured lung now do I. You'd have many a person after ye then!" He stated blowing his hair out of his eyes.
"Oh do you now? Well in that case I must have to agree with you! Very cute indeed, in both forms too I see!" He added with a charming smile accompanied by a playful wink.

Blake watched as her eyes followed the younger boy whom had just passed, wondering whether she would leap from his arms out of embarrassment or not. However she did not instead she introduced herself.

"Names eh. well names are just details I suppose, hardly important, who needs them! But Heylo there Rieko. If you care to know I am the enchanting Blake... Blake Adams." Blake stated with a charming smile.
"As for the Fireman's lifts however, thats a regular occurence!" He added with a chuckle.

[Rieko Daniels]

"Oh dont be such a wimp" she smiled, "I barely even touched you."
Rieko didnt quite know what he meant by having many people after her if she hurt him, but somehow, she was confident she could elude them so long as she paid attention to her surroundings and didnt run into any more armour suits. That made her smile, thankfully she hadnt bruised, of if she had, she didnt know about it yet.
"Glad we both agree then!" she laughed and poked him on the nose, a playful trait of hers usually showing she was in a good mood and not a bad one, "Though my tiger forms much nicer to pet, though i wouldnt advise it, i get a sudden urge to bite anyone who tries to pet me or pick me up in that form... not to mention a weird desire to hunt too" Rieko laughed, her brothers had warned her until she was able to fully control her animagus form, traits of the beast she turned into would try and take over. Though she didnt worry too much about that, she just worried about whoever was stupid enough to try and pick her up. She had already bitten people here for it. Wonder how the healer was when she realised it was a tiger bite?

Rieko watched as the boy who was watching them, winked at Blake and walked off, "He doesnt think... does he?" she asked looking at him. "Argh, Kids! Idiots the bunch of them"

"Well what would you say if you wanted to get my attention in a corridor?" she asked, laughing, "Would you yell 'Hey Tiger' at me?" Rieko smiled and looked at him, she laughed at his introduction of himself, she couldnt help it, "A regular occurance you say?" she asked, "Ah, a ladies man. Dangerous creatures them you know, get a girls hopes high and drop them in the mud." She laughed, "Well i dont make it a regular occurance of jumping into guys arms, so feel privaledged, Mr Charming" She smiled again at Blake.

((Yeesk! That was longer than i planned))

[Blake Adams]

"Me, a wimp?! Never have I heard such a thing. I am a Gryffindor strong, brave and true. As I think is quite obvious!" Blake stated with an attempt of an affronted expression, however he very rarely took offense.

Laughing he watched Rieko's expression change as she went into an indepth explanation about her other form. "Biting people eh, well if its all the same to you I'd much rather keep my fingers! Perhaps it safer to pat you on the head in this form?! Or would I become the Hunted for both personalities then?" He enquired with some amusement.

Blake had to refrain from laughing when Rieko became wound up about the passing boy, and what he would assume from this situaton. He had learnt it was not perhaps the wisest of things to wind women up more than was neccessary, However...

"More than likely, you know the minds of boys in general. one would assume? Mind you I think many a person would have jumped to the same conclusion." He added with a wink.
"As for what I would call to get your attention, 'Hey Tiger' would perhaps works, though maybe 'Yo Stripes' would also have the same desired effect! I don't think many would respond to it somehow!"

Blake watched as her features filled with laughter, she was all smiles, even though she was still covered in dust from her previous collision with the suit of arms.
"Oh yesh, I am dangerous indeed. More so than a tiger I would dare say? And as for jumping into peoples arms, I wouild expect no less, it is obvious when one such as I... Prince charming, has such devilish good looks!" He added with a cheeky wink.

(hahaha yehs, that was a relatively long post aswell .. but did it make sense.. most likely not )

[Harrison Greg]

(It is Harrison time baby!!! )

The common room was crowded and no matter how much Harrison liked being the centre of attention this was too much. The small group of girls that had attached themselves to his group were in heaven as they had corned Harrison all by himself in a corner of the room. There was no escape for the Gryffindor and no matter how he shot begging looks at the others they all seemed to enjoy watching him suffer.
However he sensed his chance to flee when the gaggle of girls decided it was time for a loo break and like the gentleman Harrison escorted them to the bathroom on the sixth floor but as they ordered him to wait he quickly turned on his heel and fled down the marble staircases to try and find refuge.

Jogging down the corridor towards the library his ears picked up the sound of a familiar laugh and the sound of his dear friend introducing himself in the same manor as always. Grinning from ear to ear Harrison slowed down, faltered down his hair and made sure his robes were straight. Blake clearly was in the presence of a female and a little bit of competition was always fun even between friends but of course this all depended on what the girl looked like.

Turning the final corner Harrison found himself looking at the back of Blake and the girl, well she seemingly was in his arms. Harrison always joked that Blake was a fast worker but this looked like they had just got married rather then they had just met.

“You cheating on me Blake? I though I was the apple of your eye, the one who put that spring in your step but clearly I was wrong.” Harrison walked around and looked at the girl in his arms and gave her a small grin. “Afternoon miss. It seems like young Mr Adams here has swept your off your feet successfully, has he by chance called himself prince charming yet?”

[Rieko Daniels]

"Well you've heard of it now havn't you?" She tilted her head slightly to the side and watched his expression, it was difficult to place whether or not he had actually taken offence or whether he was just putting it on, however it seemed he was putting it on because shortly afterwards he began to laugh.

"Well if you value your fingers i suggest you dont pat me" Rieko looked at him stony eyed and serious, "I dont like being petted in or out of tiger form, believe me i will hunt you down and considering your in my house too i dont think you will be to difficult to find" though she couldnt help a smile tug at her lips.

"Yes, i know all to well how the minds of males work" Rieko said bitterly, though she looked at him and caught the wink and laughed, thinking about the situation she could see why people would jump to conclusions. "Stripes? It wouldnt be the first time someones called me that" she laughed thinking of her brothers pet name for her.

"So you think your more dangerous than me do you?" Rieko asked, her eyes glinting, "Is that a challenge?" Rieko looked at him in surprise and laughed, "Think highly of yourself dont you?"

She looked around at the sound of anothers voice and looked back up at Blake, "Oh, I didnt know you were gay" she said, then looked back at the other boy, "I wasnt trying to steal your boyfried or anything" she laughed. Shouldnt that have been the first thing he said to her or something. Men are idiots. She got down from Blake's arms and laughed as the other guy passed a comment, "Yeah, he just did introduce himself as that, though im still trying to find the charming part" She smiled at him, adding, "Im Rieko, you know, just incase you wondered"

[Blake Adams]

"Ah , I shall take note of that then, I'll be locking my dormitory door at night, just incase I get the urge to pat you then shall I? Though I spose fingers are of little importance really!" Blake chuckled. However this did remind him of the work he had neglected. But sometimes there are just such more important and pressing matters to tend to.

"Oh do you now? Well at least its easy for you lot. As for how the female mind works, we are simply at a loss to understand such a thing! Been called Stripes before have ye? Well now I must say. I am intrigued." He declared resisting a wide grin. He watched a sparkle grow in her eyes, as she appeared to be thinking.

"One is indeed alot more dangerous that yourself. I am just alluring! However it is to be expected who could resist my innate charm! However it has its downsides, I mean collecting fan club fee's can be a pain at times!" Blake faked a sigh and shook his head slightly from side to side.


Blake heard a familiar voice start from behind them in the corridor. There was no mistaking his friends put on camp voice. Turning his head to watch Harri walk around them.
"No indeed not My dear Harri, this is just todays Damsel in distress!"
Blake found it hard not to laugh at Rieko's response to Harri's remark. Perhaps she was beginning to believe their attention attracting jest.
She began to fidget and therfore Blake let her down from his arms.

"Oh lies, you both know i'm all charming, I mean look at this amazing smile for example!" He put on the most charming smile he could muster and winked.
