Actions Acting weirdly because of the Punch effect- Essence of insanity
1) pushed Violet to the floor and fell on her
2) Grabbing attention and singing shouting

Vivian had a weird feeling after she drank the punch. She felt she was not herself and felt as though someone’s soul entered her body or maybe, her other side is coming out which she would never in her life show to others but she was aware of what happens around her. Evelyn started to talk but Vivian did not look at her but was looking at her empty cup in which she had her drink and was shaking her hips for some random tune of her own.

She waited for Evelyn to complete what she was saying but was not interested to hear and get everything inside her head, she only heard her saying she looked lovely as she was busy dancing. “I know, I look lovely, NO” she dropped her bag and said the words before swirling, admiring her own beauty and shouted the last word. “ Lovely feels so simple to me, I LOOK GORGEOUS, this is a normal word too. LOOK AT ME, THE BREATHTAKING BEAUTY, was that perfect? OR NOT? IF NOT, ANYONE, SAY A PERFECT WORD THAT FITS MY BEAUTY” she said out Loud.

She clapped her hands to grab the attention of the people there and tried to walk so fast to the middle. But bumped into a girl @Violet Carrington, which made that girl fall down and Vivian fell on her. She sat up but was sitting on the girl’s back and “ NOOOOOOOOOOO..........” she cried. “IT’S PAINING, MUMMYYYYYY” she made some crying sounds after she said that. She stood up with difficulty pressing the girl’s shoulder down to the floor looking angry and took both her heels in her hands and looked at it fiercely “YOU STUPID THING, HOW DARE YOUUUUUU” she shouted so loud, louder than before and took both her heels in her hand and continued to walk in barefoot to the middle or at least she considered it as middle. Then she dropped her heels down and again wore them.

“OKAY GUYS, ARE YOU ALL READY? YOU HAVE TO BE. HERE’S THE LOVELY PERFORMANCE” she cleared her throat dramatically, considered her right hand as a mic and folded it,and started to sing a few lines so loud, sorry it sounded like she was crying so loud. She thought that it was the music that spoiled her song “ARGHHH, this music is disturbing my song, SOMEONE STOP THIS NONSENSE ”.

It had taken Lily quite some time to get ready, she had completely misjudged how long it took to braid hair. Next time, she would be sure to arrive on time.

Arriving late to the blossom ball, she had obviously missed something, shouts she wasn’t quite sure what.

When she walked in, it was clear that everything had been going off. Though what, she wasn’t quite sure. There was what looked like a first year girl... singing? Or was she shouting? Lily had no idea what to do.

Oh god- she whispered to herself in Welsh. What should I do? And so, she went over, and said Hey, what’s going on here? She swallowed hard. You have to be more confident her mother always says... said. How she missed her so much. Hi, I’m Lily, Lily Cawthi. You may also know me as the innocent little Welsh Hufflepuff first year. The students stared at her for a second now, and she felt really awkward.

What on Earth had happened? Lily needed an explanation, and soon. Then she saw the cup on the floor. That’s what must have caused this confuffle. She thought.

Irina had been in Hogwarts a week now, and had only just managed to get her outfit together. She did love the blue of her dress though. Abs so she came to the conclusion that it was worth it.

She walked in, and wasn’t surprised to see that she was late. Irina had always been quite outgoing, and so she walked right up and into the middle of it all. There was a student shouting near the edge, and she did NOT want to get involved. Not today. She had a positive reputation, and didn’t want any to lost it.

A week ago, Irina found out that the blossom ball was Greek-themed, and it was obvious that the students at Hogwarts had known about this for quite some time, by how the looks of their outfits. Irina didn’t have enough time, and didn’t quite get a headpiece.

She walked up to a student standing alone, and introduced herself. Hey there, I’m Irina, Irina Fox. She smiled at the student, and made an attempt to talk. Though she wasn’t quite sure how. Instead, she said: You probably don’t know me, I’m from Koldo- Despite having gone to the school for nearly a year, she still didn’t know how to pronounce it. I’m from the Russian school.

Samantha's thoughts

Hair ~ Shoes ~ Flower Crown ~ Dress

After Samantha had drank her glass she felt a bit dizzy, maybe she shouldn't have drank it so fast. "Okay, I didn't like that. I wouldn't recommend that and I am never taking that again." You could easily see the dislike on Samantha's face.

Samantha was having a great time talking to Ophé and Calypso, but then somebody started to scream. "How annoying, that screaming, we are no toddlers anymore." she told them while rolling her eyes. The young raven turned her head to see who was screaming.

To her surprise she saw her Hufflepuff friend screaming about the music that apparently disturbed her song she was yelling singing. Her head turned red as soon as she realized that it was her friend who had this unacceptable behavior. She turned back to the others: "Uhmm, just a second, I'll be right back" Samantha started walking her friends way, while mumbling: "At least I hope."

Samantha was quite surprised when she saw Vivian screaming, singing and dancing. They had become good friends since their first class together, but Samantha always knew Vivian as somebody shy. If one of the two was talking, most of the time it would be Samantha.

When the brunette saw that an other first year had already tried to help her friend she smiled. Finally arriving to the other two girls, she placed her arms around them leading them away from the crowded space. Only when Samantha took her arms of the shoulders of the girl she talked. "Vivian, what did you think you where doing? What happened you are never like this." She looked at her friend with a concerned look in her eyes.

"Thank you for helping, Lily right?" the brunette smiled at girl with short hair. "I had to come all the way from over there," she pointed to where she had talked to the other students. "I was~" Wait, what was I doing over there?

The forgetfulness Potion Samantha had drank without knowing started to do its job. She could not remember what she had been doing before coming over to her friend. "Well, I did something over there." Maybe she should have just not said anything more, now it sounded weird. "I mean, I don't know anymore what I was doing there." She smiled awkwardly to the other girls.

Outfit

Luka was happy when Ana complimented his outfit, he beamed at her happily but frowned a bit when she mentioned Rodion. He didn’t understand why she seemed to be annoyed with the other boy. Since Ana seemed more comfortable in Russian and he also thought it would be better if they weren't heard, he switched to his native tongue. "Ana, you seem upset, what did Rodion do? Would you like me to talk to him for you?" He asked with concern

Yet as he hovered by the table, sipping his oddly woodsy tasting drink and talking to Ana, he would be the victim of a sudden rainstorm. Assaulted by a sudden wetness against the back of his neck, dripping down his back and soaking his suit jacket, he looked up, wondering if the weather had turned. Above him was only darkness so he turned in a circle and promptly got another drenching in the front. It was only his height that saved him from getting that drink in his face. He stared at Rodion's back, confusion on his face.

Tapping Rodion on the shoulder, he spoke in English. "Rodion! Drink goes in your mouth, not over shoulder!" He joked, doing his best to make light of the drenching he had received at his school mate's hands. He didn't know why Rodion had thrown his drink and didn't want to make a fuss of things if it had been an accident or something. He slipped off his suit jacket, examining what he hoped would not be a stain. "Ana, do you mind if-"

He began yet wouldn't finish his sentence because Rodion's date had begun yelling at him. His eyes widened in surprise as she complained about his outfit then took off her shoe and threw it at him. "ждать! ждать!" Wait! Wait! He exclaimed in Russian, holding up a hand.

Then Ana was whimpering and crouching. What on earth was going on? As he was standing beside her, he merely crouched and wrapped his friend in a comforting hug. "Ana, I'm here. What's wrong?" He spoke to her in soothing tones, gently stroking her hair in a calming rhythm. He stared suspiciously at Rodion over Ana's head.

Mentions: @Howard White

Those little chuckles. He was a bundle of joy, not to mention cuteness. It made her stomach flip. Not the same ones Howard gave her. These were different. Seeing Flash happy, even if it was just in this moment. She had to take it all in and treasure every minute. One of the hands that rested on his shoulder lifted and plopped itself on top of his head, ruffling it like she always did.

The moment she wanted to last forever was only brief for he pulled away and quickly cleaned himself up- mainly the ruffed up hair style that she created. After he adjusted his attire, the happy expressions he wore had completely vanished. That happy mask he always wore fell apart. Oh no, please don't cry. It wasn't a plea because she couldn't be bothered dealing with his emotionally outburst but it broke her heart and right now she wasn't in the right frame of mind to give him words of wisdom.

''Whats troublin' you?'' She asked anyway, unable to not worry about him. ''Is it school? Or is someone pickin' on you?'' At the last question, she pushed herself back off the wall and clenched one of her hands into a ball. Already feeling some urge of rage starting to rise at the thought of him being hurt, her attention was quickly caught once more. He mentioned Howard.

A small part of her wanted to lie and say he was busy but if anything, she had learnt lying always came back and bit you in the arse ten times worse. Plus, lying to Flash? She couldn't. Like Flanetra, Flash would have picked up on her now saddened expression. It wasn't very expressive but it was there, enough for the younger Slytherin to spot.

She bit her lip quite hard to hold back the tears she felt rising. ''U-uh. We broke up. I thought you'd have heard.'' She replied and glanced off to the side so the tears that had built up on her waterline could fall without Flash seeing, or so she hoped. She quickly wiped them away before turning her head back to him with a smile now across her face. ''Anyway! She attempted to change the topic by quickly ruffling up his hair again, her smile in the process turning to a playful one. ''Wheres your date, ey? You can't be lookin' this good without one! Girls- and lads should be lining up!''

Eirian had been excited since the first announcement of the ball. She had never been to any kind of party, aside from family get-togethers or neighbourhood kids' birthday, let alone a huge fancy one. She didn't know much about Greece or Greek mythology, but she had put a good amount of effort into finding an outfit that at least seemed inspired by the theme. She was happy with what she had put together and looked forward to what she hoped would be a night of dancing, chatting and possibly making new friends- overall, her hopes were high for a night of fun.

She arrived in the Underworld area perhaps a bit late; it seemed that things were in full swing already, but she didn't mind, and she often was late for things, so it was no surprise. She came with no date but had met with her friend Aaron in the Slytherin common room, and the two had ventured down to the ball site together.

They paused, walking a little bit into the area, and she looked around in amazement- they had truly gone all-in on decorating, not that she would expect less knowing that Kazuo had been a part of the planning committee. Focusing more on the people present, she recognised Luka, a Koldovstoretz student she had met when the visiting students had arrived. Her first thought was to go over and say hello but hesitated to look over the situation he appeared to be in; one of his schoolmates she had seen him with before was on the ground, seeming distressed, and he was comforting her.

So, instead of going over immediately, she turned to her friend next to her. "Want to get a drink and see what's happening here before going over to the Spring area?"

A new girl whom she did not recognise was trying to lead her and the girl who was shouting away. To be honest, she should know better, but Lily was in a daze.

Seeing what the punch had done to others, Lily knew she shouldn’t drink it. Still, she did. It tasted bitter, and now she was waiting for the effects to start.

The girl who was being sensible called the girl who was shouting Vivian. To her ears, that name meant trouble. And the fact that she wouldn’t normally be like that just added to the mystery of the drink.

"Thank you for helping, Lily right?" Lily smiled and nodded politely. She liked the girl. It didn’t matter that she was leading her to a place she didn’t currently know, she was trusting her. So, yeah, I’m Lily Cawthi. What’s your name? Then she gestured to the other girl they was being led away. And that’s Vivian, right? Vivian was still shouting, and Lily didn’t know what to do. It was utterly useless.

Lily was suddenly reminded of the punch she drank. Did she know what was about to happen to her? No. When it started to take effect, she felt a bit dizzy.

[ @Carolyn Hunt • @Lily Cawthi as Irina ]

trying to be nice • innocently drinking non-contaminated punch • being confused • looking sketchy • going to the trials with Carolyn

"Oh! Thank you." Lucia blushed a little at the compliment but accepted it politely, as she'd always been taught to do. After all, she was pretty. What was the point in saying that she wasn't? Carolyn's comment wasn't all that off, though. Her outfit was, maybe, just a tiny bit over the top, even by Lucia's standards, but that didn't matter in the Hufflepuff's eyes. It was a beautiful dress.

It seemed, however, that Carolyn wasn't a fan. Not of the dress, but of whoever had given it to her. Lucia wasn't quite sure how to answer this - what was she supposed to say? - so decided to sidestep the issue altogether. "Well, it's very pretty," she said truthfully. "Whatever their faults might be, they have a good taste in dresses." She gave Carolyn a hopeful little smile, trying to figure out if that had sounded rude or something.

Lucia took a sip of her punch. Mmm. It was cold and refreshing, but also a little, well, punchy. She was entirely naïve when it came to the effects of the punch in all the other bowls. Luck was certainly smiling upon her today; not that Lucia recognised it. "This is really nice punch," she commented.

Carolyn mentioned that she didn't think this was the dancefloor and Lucia looked around again. She was right. The underworld appeared to be basically the entrance hall, not the place to dance. "Sure," the Hufflepuff agreed to Carolyn's suggestion of moving to the Spring Festival. "I can do modern songs. I'm, um, not entirely sure what you mean by 'disco' -" she flushed - "But I can try."

As the Trials came into the conversation, Lucia nodded. "Um, okay." She couldn't particularly say that she really wanted to do the Trials, but she would do them if Carolyn wanted to. "Me neither, really. We could-"

But she was broken off by a drunk-sounding shout from the side of the courtyard. Lucia wrinkled her nose at the girl who was screaming. "Merlin, what's gotten into her?" she asked, taking another gulp of her punch. Then she saw another girl a few metres away and recognised her almost instantly. Irina Fox: the girl who was, apparently, Lucia's cousin. The two girls locked eyes from a moment, then Lucia broke eye contact and turned the other way. "Carolyn," she said, practically pulling the girl out of the courtyard. "Let's go have a look at the Trials then come back after." Lucia Fox wasn't in the mood to Irina right now.

Actions Acting weirdly because of the Punch effect- Essence of insanity
1) Trying to sing another song and shouting at Lily for interrupting
2) Being dragged by Sam to the corner and acts dramatically[/revelio]

When Vivian was about to start singing shouting another song trying to match the music there, she was now interrupted by a girl. She introduced herself as Lily. “YEAH, I KNOW...WELSH IS A LANGUAGE” Vivian exclaimed. She was so happy that she was able to identify that Welsh is a language and clapped for herself. She have seen Lily before but did not know anything about her and was so shy to go strike up a conversation. Vivian continued “ HEY, WHERE WERE YOU? YOU MISSED A WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE AND YOU HAVE INTERRUPTED ANOTHER WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE AND YOU-” she started shouting at Lily until she noticed Sam walking towards her.

“ SAMMMMM, I MISSED YOU” she cried out and hugged Sam so tightly and released her and said “ Where were you, Sam? You know how much I missed you since the evening” in a dramatic manner in a low voice that would have been heard by both Sam and Lily. She was being dragged by Samantha to the corner. She is now barefooted and dancing like a lunatic in front of Lily and Sam.


“ What do you mean by saying that? You did something over there? YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WERE DOING THERE? I KNOW SAM, You are keeping secrets from me, why? WHY? BECAUSE YOU HATE ME. When did you start hating me? Why? WHY?” she said all these words dramatically and did some fake crying. It would have surely made Sam confused as Vivian never talked or behaved like this before to her, to anyone.

“ YEAH, IT’S VIVIAN, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, THE MOST BRILLIANT, THE MOST PRECIOUS, MOST DARING, MOST ATHLETIC PERSON PRESENT HERE” she said with a proud look on her face and everything she said was not true at all. “ Did I miss anything out?” she asked looking at Lily.
