With the capture of Verandi Farley and several high-ranking Trossach members, the British wizarding world has finally caught a break. The rate of rogue werewolf attacks have started dropping at a steady rate and, hopefully, things will stay that way. The Ministry is starting to loosen some restrictions, like not arresting werewolves standing on the street for loitering, however there’s still an obvious power imbalance between wizardfolk and werewolves.
The Cotswolds pack are continuing to advocate for the rights of werewolves and petitioning to change the legislation that has been set in motion by the current Minister for Magic, whilst the remaining Trossachs members are trying to stay out of the spotlight and keep a low profile… for now.
Whilst the British wizarding world seems to have calmed down, the same cannot be said for over in Northern Europe where a rebellion of magical creatures has risen. The state of things has gotten so bad that the European Ministry has enacted protocols to protect those under eighteen whilst their adult witches and wizards fight to keep control of their countries.
Students from Durmstrang have been sent to Hogwarts to keep them safe and those not old enough to attend school have been sent to live with relatives or designated British Ministry officials outside of Europe for the time being.
Will the low rates of werewolf attacks in Britain continue? How long will Durmstrang students stay at Hogwarts? Will the creatures usurp the wizardfolk in Northern Europe? Only time will tell.
SEPTEMBER 2019 It's been a very long, eventful summer in the wizarding world. A baby was stolen, several high ranking Trossach members were imprisoned, and werewolf attacks have drastically dropped as a result. What will happen now school has returned?
MAY 2019 An attempt to capture the beta of the Trossachs has been launched. Were the Aurors successful in their mission? Go read more here!

Alex wasn't quite sure how he got in this predicament, the one where he was just casually walking in the halls and got caught in a large sea of people moving into the Room of Requirement. But as a result, he was now at a... party? Was this what a party looked like?
Frowning, Alex wondered if it would be too awkward to turn around and leave when suddenly, a passerby shouldered him and he was suddenly standing in front of a group of people... people in his year, no less. He knew Liam,, and Viola who always tried to make conversation at breakfast, but the rest of their names? Well, their first names? He couldn't recall them if you paid him to... he may have spent classes with all these people for years, but he'd never paid any attention to them, too busy on his own troubles and his life mission of trying to fade away instead.
Realising that there were people staring at him (or at least, he thought they were), Alex's hands were immediately shoved in his baggy jean pockets. "Er... hi," he said, voice quiet and mumbled, eyes soon diverting from their faces to steadily stare at the ground. Maybe they'd get so busy chatting to one another that he could slip away into the crowd and out of the room soon.

Elena thought on the dare for a moment, scrunching her nose bit as she looked at Liam amidst her ponder... Goodness, was he.. Adorable. She tapped her chin a moment, " I dare you.. To eat this oreo chip cookie with Felix... Without using your hands. Either of you." She giggled a bit. Considering how stiff and not to mention small those dark little cookies were she was certain it was going to be entertaining to watch the pair, " Hands behind your back to avoid temptation!" She chuckled.
As she set a cookie on a napkin, she noticed another new comer, waving at Aggy, " Heyya Aggy," She greeted with A warm smile, " You look smashing tonight! You're welcome to join in!"
Of course, she wasn't sure exactly what kind of games Agnes liked... Or if she liked games? She didn't know, but she was Liam's friend and any friend of Lili's was going to get extra love from the little veela. "and Alex, right? Yes, come hang out with us!" She looked back at the two clapping her hands together, presenting the cookie, " Alright, ready-set-let's-go, Vi!" she teased playfully.
She walked back next to Liam, looping her arm at the boy's waste comofortably as she watched the inevitable hilarity.

While Vik wasn't an antisocial little bug under a rock, but she never really pictured herself as a party animal. She usually stuck to intimated affairs between the people she was close to-- Grace, obviously, and at one time it would have been Tobias... She told Grace she planned on trying. You know, maybe she would actually enjoy it? Who knew? She certainly didn't.
Of course, when she arrived she didn't really know anyone. Following in behind a group of unwitting guests, the girl made her way over to find a seat, mostly just people watching for the time being and she rested her chin on her hand as the tiny half-veela offered up what seemed to be a dare. Truth or dare, huh? Might be interesting. She pulled her chair over to the group to get a better view, " I'll join in, " The sixth year remarked, crossing her arms over her chest comfortable as she draped her right leg over her left.
Celeste was definitely happy and unhappy about this. On one hand she was invited to a party by someone that she rather liked, perhaps not in the sexual sense. The young girl hadn’t really been exploring her own sexuality that much, but being dorm mates with Vi… You either adored the blonde ball of energy or you absolutely couldn’t work with her for the life of you. Celeste was of the persuasion that she adored the ball of energy, which is why she had come fashionably late as if to grace them with her presence. Not being a fan of too many people in the same place, or intoxicated people for that matter.
Then there was the absolute worst kind of people, the kind that acted intoxicated, but hadn’t had a drop of alcohol, but thought they could get away with more if they pretended that they had. For those she had been digging around in the library. Strictly speaking it was a spell to freeze a glass so your drink would stay cold longer, but she had guessed she could repurpose it if someone tried to get fake drunk handsy with her.
When she started moving through the gathered people to get a drink she would soon think she needed something way stronger herself. As a matter of fact she was already going looking for something like that, but heaving a sigh decided against asking. Vi was definitely doing her thing with saying she was going to smooch a lot of people that night, not only that but choosing a dare soon after Celeste made herself up for a long, quite probably tedious night. ’’Brave move Vi, care if I join in on the…fun?’’

After heralding in the new people, it didn't take long for a few new people to join their little gathering and after giving a small wave to the quiet boy in her year, Alex, Vi's face light up as she saw who joined them next. Her cutie patootie roommate, Celeste. They were pretty different personality-wise but opposites did attract and by Merlin, she adored the girl! "Maybe I should have been a Gryffindor instead," she joked, reaching out to take her friend's hands and gently tug her to stand next to her. "Yes, yes, come play! I would adore that!"
When Elena gave Vi her dare, the girl broke out in a great big grin because eating a cookie with Felix? Done deal! Especially without hands. It sounded like a gosh darn tootin' ball, and so pinching the cookie from Elena's hand and shoving it between her teeth, she turned to Felix. "'ou r'dy?" she asked between the cookie, wiggling her eyebrows and shimmying as she took a step towards her friend. She was ready to go, it was up to him to either bite or not bite the cookie now.
when there's nowhere else to run/is there room for one more son?

A party? Skylar was not about to miss that. The Room of Requirement, they'd said--and he definitely required a party. School was killing him, and he felt like his head was stuffed full of cotton every time a professor spoke. But this, this would be some fun. He needed a chance to laugh and enjoy himself again. Brushing his hand against the corridor wall, he waited until the needed door appeared under his fingers, and when it did, a grin spread over his face at the brightly decorated room and the collection of people laughing and smiling already. He really wanted to be a laughing and smiling person again. This should help, right?
He grabbed a chair from the side of the room, and seeing that whatever was going on in the center of the circle included a cookie, he also took a cookie for himself before sitting down to watch the dare. Truth or dare was so fun, except that he didn't think he could ever pick "truth" now. That would ruin the mood of the party in an instant if they asked the wrong question. He caught himself before he began frowning, forcing his eyes back to his classmates, who were encouraging Felix to grab the cookie from Viola's mouth. "Get it, Felix!" he cheered, clapping his hands. Secretly, he hoped he'd get a dare involving getting his lips close to someone like that.
Parties were meant to be fun and Ollie wanted to have fun! She had been having a rough week with emotional friends and she really hoped she had convinced Parker to come with her, she loved her and she wanted her there. The girl just went ahead, leaving Parker the choice.
She arrived at the party with a smile and waved at people as she passed them by. "Hey everyone!" she said and eyed Agnes with the drinks. She needed to at least say hi to her dear friend!
"Aggy! You look beautiful." she complimented and looked at the table. "Any chocolate milk?"

Felix didnt mind dares, they were just games to entertain the other people around him. The boy ran a hand through his thick blonde locks and eyed Viola who was ready for the challenge. Some boys even cheered them on as well and Felix just smirked.
"Alright." he moved his hands behind his back and leaned in to bite a piece off of the cookie, his fingers interlocked so he wasn't too tempted to use his hands in this one.

Mavican enjoyed parties as much as the next person and though she wasn't the most popular girl in school she did enjoy the games and fun. She could care less how old some of the people here were and just had a smile on her face as she was seated and watched the show between a boy and a girl and an oreo cookie. Well if she could only be 14 and the cookie right now, that would have been amazing.

Rosa was excited to have some well-needed best friend time with Greyson and unwind. She'd been stressed with testing the waters with Felix, her prefect duties, and of course, school in general. He'd asked her to come and she agreed, in spite of her "responsibilities" which, to be fair, she didn't actually care about. Being prefect was more of a way to appease her family image and expectAtions. She was glad he'd suggested something, hoping even to see Felix while they were there.
However, walking in on people cheering said boy's name as he leaned in towards another girl on A dare and threw her a wink... Well, she was pissed. She could feel her jaw tense as she looked, giving a hard glare his direction. Not sharing. Right. That's certainly what it looked like. "Well, that was short lived..." The brunette growl, hurt more than anything to see it, but frankly, she wasn't the feelsy type when she was upset. She was more of the yell and burn the world type.
"Let's just get something to drink. That's better than watching this bullshit, " She remarked, moving towards the table silently.

At the sound of some of the other people cheering them on, Vi couldn't help but grin because this was fun and she made sure to call out to Skylar with a wink, "Maybe you'll get it later, Sky!lar" She definitely wouldn't be opposed to the idea of smooching the Hufflepuff... or even watching him smoochie woochie Felix, come to think about it. That would be super duper hot.
As Felix leaned into and took a bite of the cookie too, Vi's eyes light up especially as she realised just how crumbly this cookie was, practically breaking apart with each nibble until finally, it was gone and their lips met in a short kiss. Pulling away, Vi wiped the crumbs off her lips before letting out a joyous laugh because yeah, that was definitely fun.
"Who's next... hmm, I'm going to ask the host with the most... Elena!" she announced, whirling around to address her friend with a twinkle in her eyes. "Truth or dare, my friend?"
TAGS: @felix, SKYLAR REID, ELENA COLDWATER NOTES: just so elena can act immediately, you can say vi gave her one of these truth/dares. truth: if you were stuck on a deserted island with anybody in the room, who would you be stranded with? dare: i dare you to close your eyes, spin in a circle, and kiss whoever your finger lands on

Felix didn't even notice Rosa there. The boy smiled as it was over and ruffled Vi's hair before looking around and spotting Rosa who seemed annoyed. It was just a game. Was all he told himself as he just shrugged it off. He knew she was furious, he knew her better than that and just headed for the table and Rosa.
He didn't give a damn about anyone else really. The boy frowned and eyed her.
"You came after all." he said with a small smile and grabbed a drink.
"You look amazing." he then headed over to a chair and sat down, watching the others play.

Clary was so excited but everything happened so fast, Viola and Felix were eating a cookie together and Clary almost danced of excitement. "Oh oh can I go after!" she asked and spun around on her heels. She was wondering what would come next and she really hoped everyone was having fun.
Parties were for fun after all. The bright haired girl waved at everyone she ran into, gave some people hugs as well and just waited for her turn.
Parties! She didn't really think there would be any and oh if her daddy found out she went to a secret party he might get really, really mad. But here she was anyway with a smile on her bright face and her eyes trying to find people she knew. There were so many people! The brunette rushed towards Viola and Elena first and smiled.
"Hey! You two look amazing and thank you for inviting me!" she told them both and gave them a smooch on the cheek before looking for her friends. She noticed Sky and headed over to him.
A party with a bunch of nancy fourth years who thought the height of fun was kissing games sounded like a snoozefest to Greyson and that's why, as he walked through the doors with Rosalia beside him, he had a plan in mind. What was that plan? To mess things up. Royally. To help these kidlets realise what fun truly was.
Glancing up, he managed to catch sight of Rosa's face and following her gaze... he could definitely see why it was darkening like a thunderstorm. Goddamn Italian asshole - not her, this time, but him. Grey didn't know what she saw in Bianchi, he was a scared little boy who literally ran away when things got tough. He did it in class, he did it after kissing Rosa, he'd do it again in the future.
"Maybe if you're lucky I'll feel you up in a closet later," Greyson joked as he moved towards the table with Rosalia, uncapping the bottle of alcohol he had shoved in his bag, and emptying about a quarter of the vodka into one punch bowl, then the next, until literally all of them were laced with it. Once his job was done, his lips twisted in a smirk. "These runts aren't gonna know what hit 'em."
It was at that point Bianchi came over, smiling like a little girl who'd received a bloody flower crown and gushing over Rosalia and ignoring him entirely in the process. "Wanker," Grey muttered loudly, loud enough for the kid to hear him. Quite honestly, he didn't give a shit if Bianchi heard him either.
