[Hogsmeade] Going to the castle

[Jac Shaw]

((Mozess, hope you don't mind I took the liberty but I was bored, can you blame me!?!))

Jac stepped into the street and into a strong wind. Her black hair blew into her face and into her mouth. She closed her eyes and brushed her hair out of her face. She revealed freckles on her cheeks and green eyes. She tied her hair loosely behind her head and turned around looking for Mozess.

[Mozess Mirari]

[Course not!]

'Slow down, speed wagon!' she called, trying to catch up as her robe pockets bounced unevenly with each step, being filled with shrunken boxes of Cormuitos. 'Y'know, maybe we should open one of these boxes and see just what these are anyways...' she said as she gently opened one pocket to look in at the color changing boxes that had the unusual scraping sounds voicing yet again.

[Jac Shaw]

Jac too gazed into the slytherin's pocket. "Maybe..." she said dreamily, then added, "but I think we should find dragon-hide gloves first. I don't want any rashes! Thank you very much!" She quickly pulled her head back and leaned back. "You can do it!" she giggled.

[Mozess Mirari]

She grimaced for a moment, then shrugged, 'Why not? We've got to eventually anyways...' then as an afterthought, 'But if I do swell up like a blimp, rush me to the infrimary and dump a bucket of bubotuber gel on me before you laugh please.' With that she took one of the boxes out of her pocket and muttered an engorgio spell, restoring it to its original size. 'Here goes... something,' she said with a shrug before tearing the lid off. Inside she saw something small, white, and scaly with large waterey grey eyes. It looked something like a cross between a very small, wingless dragon and a crup, being that it was small and scaly with a very round, egg-shaped head, but it had very large watery grey eyes and a cuff of fur around its neck, and instead of having claws like a dragon it had very soft, fuzzy, padded feet like a dog might. She smiled and looked down as the creature, 'Aww, it's so cute!' She reached into the box and pulled the creature out, cradling it like a baby. Almost immedeatly the animals fur turned bright red and its eyes turned pale green, matching those of Mozess, though its scales remained the shiny charcoal grey hue they'd been earlier. She laughed, 'Jac, it's a Metamorphmagus in pet form!' That's when something else caught her eye; a note in the box. She lifted it and read aloud, 'Note: Not all cormuitos look the same. They are a still-developing hybreed, based from manipulated boggart DNA. They are not dark creatures! All cormuitos do change color at will. Sincerly, the cormuitos developers.'
She shrugged, 'That's weird... here, you open one Jac,' she said, restoring one of the boxes and putting it in Jacs arms.

[Jac Shaw]

Jac was on her toes, leaning forward to try and get a better look of the small creature from the far distance she was at. She saw the white and the big grey eyes. Mozess lifted it out of the box and a note caught Jac's eye but suddenly the creature turned red and it's eyes went green. That always happened to her when she was angry.

Jac ignored her impulse to slap the creature from the slytherin's hand to save her from any fizzing, foaming, biting, gnawing, raging, arm-wrenching-out-of-socketing earges the Cormuitos may feel. She did this because Mozess put a box in her hands. It was changing colour even more then Jac's own hair did. She lifted the lid and put her hand inside, pulling out a black creature.

It's eyes were pale blue and it had a slight mohawk on its head and running down its back to the end of its stumpy tail. It's squat legs were grey and clawless, fury feet that tickled Jac's hand. It's rear wagged from side to side like and excited dog's would. It was indeed cute. Jac looked up at Mozess and said, smiling, "it is cute!" Then added, looking back at the small mohawked creature, "I think I'll call him Ares!"

[Mozess Mirari]

She smiled, 'I suppose I ought to name mine, huh?' she asked looking down at the creature in her arms. 'How about... Bingo?' The creatures eyes turned a sickly green and its fur turned pale. 'Okay, not Bingo... Killer?' The creature fur turned black and its eyes went orange. 'Alright, then... how about... Vesna?' she asked, remembering a story she'd once read with an unusual leading lady named Vesna. The cormuitos' fur and eyes both changed to a brilliant neon green and it nuzzled its head against Mozess' neck. She laughed, 'I wonder what havoc will come of releasing these sickeningly cute creatures in the great hall?' she thought aloud, picturing first year girls chasing after them and older boys trying to get them to eat their homework.

She shrugged and set Vesna at her feet, 'You know, I've never had a pet before,' she said airily. 'I wonder what Nikkos will think about Vesna.' she chuckled. She didn't much care, but she thought it would be amusing if Nikkos were maybe a little jealous of her new pet.

[Jac Shaw]

Ares was running along Jacs arm, over her shoulders and down the other arm and back. "Shouldn't really matter." Jac spoke without looking at Mozess, "you have her now and there ain't nothin he can do to get rid of her."

Jac spun around throwing Ares into the air and catching him in her arms. He flushed neon orange and purred loudly when she was hugging him in her arms. "Could be interesting having a Cormuitos as a pet though. Wonder how big they grow to be..." she thought aloud absentmindedly.

[Mozess Mirari]

'Didn't you say your brother wrote you a letter about them?' she asked airily. 'Surely that would say something about their growth.... maybe?' she shrugged as Vesna began running figure eights through her feet as she walked. 'You're going to get dizzy doing that,' she said with a chuckle.

She continued walking like this for a bit, new pet wandering between her feet, until her toe snagged on a rock and she tripped 'Oh sna-' she managed to turn just enough that she landed on her side, '-ap,' before rolling onto her back and lifting her head enough to look at Vesna. The little creature's fur had turned a worried lemon yellow and it hurried up to her head, licking her on the cheek. She started laughing, 'That tickles Vesna!' she said as the creatures rough forked toungue continued to brush against her face, 'Cut it out.'

[Jac Shaw]

Jac smiled and nodded, "u-hu!" she said, "Ed has written something about them I'm sure." She cuddled Ares to her cheek and both their hair colours changed to a calm cool night-sky blue, Jac's sparkling with shocking blue streaks. She giggled and followed Mozess. Ares was comfortably seated in on of her hands, biting her fore finger.

He licked her finger and Jac smiled at Mozess as she voiced what she was thinking. "Kinda feels like a cats tongue, doesn't it!?" Jac sat to Mozess as she caught up. "But it seems strange that these cute little fur balls would cause havoc like we'd hoped huh! Or is the right word impossible?" She clapped her free hand to her forehead and rolled her eyes, grinning inanely.

[Mozess Mirari]

She sat up, looking thoughtful for a moment, 'Well, my theory is, if there's only a little bit of whipped cream, or only a few sugary treats at each table in the great hall when we let the buggers go, they'll do what it takes to get to the sweets,' she said as she held up her satchel which was now being burrowed into by the Cormuitos. A few moments later the Bertie Botts popped out the top being followed by Vesnas sleek black body.

[Jac Shaw]

Jac nodded and smiled at Mozess. "Agreed!" she said. Jac looked at Ares and frowned. His smooth scaly body had turned the same ginger colour her hair had. She smiled and stroked the small creatures head.

Jac looked up from her new little friend and to the castle. "So what we're gonna do now?" she asked dreamily. "Room of Requirements? or somewhere else?"
