One Note At A Time..
Reducio
OOC: This Scenario starts on February 28th of 2023, on a breezy evening. During this scenario, I will be roleplaying in Maggie's point of view (1st person). Anyone can roleplay a setting of any timeframe during that night or beyond.
IC: I have surprisingly had an uneventful experience during my time at Hogwarts so far, and I feel like I need to actually do something. I've always had a hidden talent and love for playing the piano ever since my older sister taught me how to play it when I was 5-years old. The funny thing is that I've never actually played piano based on the notes on a piece of sheet music. Instead, I've always played by ear, listening to which chords sound good together in a rhythmic sequence or pattern. I've already created several songs over the years, yet I've never transferred any of them onto a piece of sheet music. Tonight, I've decided to try my hand at the grand piano in the Hogwarts rehearsal room! I'm excited to try it out, yet at the same time, I'm nervous about messing the piano up somehow. Nevertheless, I approach the huge wooden doors of the rehearsal room and take a deep breath before pushing open the doors. To my surprise, it takes quite a bit of effort for me to open the doors, but I eventually manage to do so after a few tries. Once I step inside, my jaw drops in amazement as I marvel at the sheer size of the room. It looks like something straight out of a medieval castle (which is technically what Hogwarts is). Then, I see it. My eyes fall right onto that glorious grand piano, at the center of the stage. Not long after this discovery, I notice dozens of paintings on the walls. I get a strange feeling that they're watching me. Regardless, I can't contain my excitement enough to keep me from quickly walking onto the stage and approaching the piano. I run my fingers across the pristine, spotless, almost blindingly-white keys, and I feel like they're speaking to my heart, beckoning me to play even one single chord. I carefully sit down on the exquisite leather seat, gazing over every key on the piano. I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and let loose onto the keys. As soon as my fingers press down on the keys, the most beautiful tone rings out across the entire room. A certain euphoria clouds my mind, and before I know it, I am spewing out heavenly, harmonious chords into the room via the piano. I get lost in the phenomena that is the grand piano.

One Note At A Time..
Violet didn’t know how to play an instrument but she surely liked music. That was why after her class ended, she decided to check the rehearsal room to see what instruments could be hiding there. She walked the corridors to reach the room. While she was walking she was also thinking about stuff absentmindedly. She might not know how to play an instrument but she liked to sing, she used to sing a lot before Hogwarts , especially alone in her room. She wasn’t an expert but singing was fun and refreshing, like some sort of self care, and of course self-expression. After she officially became a Hogwarts student she stopped singing for a while, focusing on other things like classes and friends. But she realized that she missed singing while walking. Too bad that one of her classmates saw her singing once and ruined the fun of it for her, she honestly felt like he was overreacting like he always did. She knew she wasn’t an expert on singing or anything but she’d like to think she actually doesn’t sound bad..
So then Violet finally arrived at the rehearsal room, but realized she wasn’t alone. She heard some piano noises, which were nice, very nice indeed as it was calming and heavenly. She took a quick look inside the room, and saw another slytherin playing the grand piano at the center of the stage.
Violet didn’t wanna bother her or stop her from playing it. So she just waited for a while. The girl seemed to get lost in her piano playing process. However, after a while Violet decided to just enter the room. “..Hello, sorry for bothering you, i didn’t want to stop you, you can keep going..i was just checking the room.” She said. “You play piano so well by the way, since when are you playing?” She continued with a friendly smile.

I stop playing and turn to look at this new girl. She has dark green eyes and what appears tobe dyed white hair. I have to admit she is very pretty, and I almost have a tinge of jealousy, but I decide to let it go, realizing how unreasonable that would be. I notice she has a very energetic and friendly vibe about her, and I can't help but smile. I immediately sense that friendship is highly possible. "Hi, my name is Magdaline Pritchett, but you can call me Maggie or Mags. And thanks, I've been playing piano since I was six years old. It is one of my greatest passions, alongside writing," I say, pausing for a second before resuming. "So, what's your name?" I ask the girl. I take another look at the girl's hair, which is semi-long and wavy. "Your hair is very pretty by the way. I know I couldn't pull off dyed hair,"I say before letting out a soft sigh. "So, do you have any hobbies or anything you like doing?You look like a really good singer, I can usually read people like a book. Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, I just love getting to know and meet new people," I say to this girl. I then start playing "Married Life" from the movie Up, one of my favorite movies from Pixar.
"The real question is," I say to the girl after playing the last note of the song, "What's your favorite Pixar movie?"

One Note At A Time..
The girl seemed very friendly with her smiling back at Violet, she had ginger hair like she also used to have. She introduced herself, her name was Magdeline but she said she could call her Maggie or Mags, since Violet already knew a Maggie she would call her Mags then. She said she knew how to play piano since she was six years old and Violet said “It’s impressive!” Then Mags asked her name.
“Oh, my name is Violet, Violet Grace but you can call me Vee” Normally she would let the nicknames come naturally with other people but with Mags she felt comfortable with it enough.
“Your hair is very pretty by the way. I know I couldn't pull off dyed hair,"”
Violet kinda felt like blushing at the compliment but she continued talking “Why would you think so? I honestly think anyone can pull off dyed hair, i think it's a matter of choosing the right color” She shrugged. “By the way, i used to have ginger hair too..but everyone called me “red” when my name was Violet so i decided to dye it white” She chuckled. “I didn’t think i’d be called “white” so..”
"So, do you have any hobbies or anything you like doing?
You look like a really good singer, I can usually read people like a book. Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, I just love getting to know and meet new people,"
“Do not worry about it” She assured her. “I do like writing too! Although i stopped doing it for a while..and thank you for saying i look like a good singer because its my favorite hobby"
Mags started playing another song that sounded familiar and Violet listened to her without interrupting as she seemed like she was in her zone again. When it was over Mags asked her about Vee's favorite pixar movie. She thought a bit.
"I think my favorite is Inside Out. I watched it and it was very meaningful. What about you?"She smiled and asked "..and why?"
