In the early morning hush of Hogwarts, the Great Hall revealed its true magic. Sunlight, infused with a touch of morning dew, painted an ethereal tableau through the towering windows. The enchanted ceiling above displayed a vivid canvas of a sunrise, a tapestry that shifted and transformed with the advancing hours. The air carried a sense of potential and quiet urgency, a gentle reminder that the day was ripe with learning opportunities. Daphne currently carried a substantial load of textbooks and parchments in one arm, a tribute to her dedication to academic pursuits. With a diligent step, she made her way to an unoccupied corner of the Hufflepuff table. The gleaming wood seemed to beckon her to unfurl her studies. The ambiance was a blend of focused whispers and the occasional rustle of clothes and robes, a harmonious melody that accompanied her preparations for the day. Although she longed for a lavish breakfast, the insistent tug of her academic responsibilities took precedence.

A handful of apples, nature's quick sustenance, became her morning meal. The library awaited, its ancient shelves holding the answers to questions that tugged at her curiosity. After all, the journey of her second year at Hogwarts had begun, promising challenges, discoveries, and a deeper understanding of the magical world around her. As she hurriedly shoved apples into her satchel, the intricate details of the Great Hall unfolded before her. The morning sunlight streamed through the colossal windows, casting a golden glow across the long expanse of tables. The stone walls seemed to absorb the warmth, radiating a comforting heat. The air carried a subtle aroma of enchanted food and the faint scent of parchment.

Occasionally, her gaze would drift to her fellow students. Some were deep in animated discussions, their faces alight with intellectual curiosity. Others were lost in their worlds, eating quietly or reading with rapt attention. Daphne couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging. Here, she was part of something greater than herself, a world of knowledge and wonder that stretched far beyond the hall's enchanted walls. She couldn't help but wonder what her friends were doing at the moment, she hadn't seen them in a while.

Axyen woke up pretty early in the morning, in the dormitory. Axyen looked down to see a fluff of purple, his Pygmy Puff Arnold appeared to be asleep still. Axyen crept down the stairs and nearly tripped halfway through, he was about to leave his dormitory, but crept back up the stairs as quietly as he could to get a few of his journals, notes, and standard second year textbooks. Axyen grabbed the doorknob, giving it a tiny twist and weak enough push just to crack it open. Axyen slowly exited the dormitory as the door gave a little creak. Then, there was a squeak. Axyen sighed, turning around to see Arnold the Pygmy Puff awake, and looking at Axyen. "Greetings Arnold." Axyen said, readjusting his posture for the textbooks. Arnold gave Axyen an annoyed look, then a squeak. "Yeah, I was planning on finishing some homework, then a tiny bit of studying." Axyen said, he must've looked ridiculous talking to a Pygmy Puff as if it was a student his size, although to Axyen, Arnold was just about the same as any other student at Hogwarts. Arnold gave a few more squaks, which Axyen couldn't understand, but pretended to go along with it anyways. "Right, right. Well let's get breakfast." Axyen said, as he entered the main room of the Common Room he had grown so familiar with, and yet, it still felt as comforting as it did as his first night here. The portrait of Helga Hufflepuff, the nice comfortable chairs that varied in size and looks, the soft carpet, to the burning fireplace that seemingly never went out. Axyen could stay in this room forever it seemed, Axyen continued to what looks like the back of a barrel door and then he exited, there were various barrels behind him, Axyen wondered if there were any actual drinks in them or if they were just for this Common Room alone. Axyen left the common room to go an adventure to find the great hall.

Axyen went to the staircase that usually led him down to the Great Hall, but this time it seemed, the staircase led upwards today. Axyen sighed, this wasn't going to be fun, he searched and roamed the corridors looking at each staircase hopefully while Arnold followed closely behind, looking around, perhaps he thought Axyen was looking for something, Axyen felt his hand drag along the brick wall, he didn't know why he did it, perhaps he was expecting for some kind of secret passage that led him down to his breakfast. Eventually, Axyen came upon a staircase that led downwards. Finally.

Axyen eventually made his way into the Great Hall where he was greeted by a lot of chattering, Axyen looked up at the ceiling, the very ceiling made to mimic the outside sky. It was a nice, lovely sunny day, and it seemed just as bright as the Hufflepuff table Axyen was slowly approaching. Axyen plated his food, opened his notes, and started to try and simplify concepts in his Charms notes, then moved on to his Potions, he found that Herbology was already perfected(to his standards) and continued reviewing his notes, he then moved onto his History of Magic essay, looking at his notes, he would find a thing or two missing, reference the standard second year History of Magic textbook, jot it down in his own personal notes, and continued on with his homework. Axyen eventually felt satisfied, it wasn't too hard keeping up with classes, not to him at least. It was pretty fun, but now that his essay was done, he needed to think if there was more homework he should be completing. Axyen started to eat his food, while appearing to be deep in thought. Axyen was startled when Arnold nudged his leg, Axyen quickly got a treat before Arnold could start squeaking and the now satisfied Pygmy Puff extended his tongue at high speeds and then began crunching on the treat.

In that moment, Daphne's gaze alighted upon a young lad making his way toward the Hufflepuff table. Although he wasn't precisely within her immediate vicinity, the distance failed to obscure her keen observation—he seemed to be engrossed in a private reverie, unengaged in conversation with anyone. As fortune would have it, her satchel and arm bore the weight of multiple apples, brimming to the edge, a veritable harvest clutched close. The notion of adjourning directly to the library flickered fleetingly in her thoughts; however, an inkling of recognition about this young boy detained her footsteps. Thus, with purpose and a breath slightly hastened, Daphne treaded toward his occupied space, her steps laden with eagerness yet tempered by the urgency of her errand. She ventured closer, the pulse of curiosity resonating within, unearthing familiarity upon drawing nigh. Axyen. The name rang a bell—a memory inked in the narrative of a summer camp where their paths had once intertwined.

"Hey! Is that you? Axyen, right?" she called out, her tone effused with a palpable enthusiasm, an overt trace of excitement lacing her words. "Remember me? Daphne—" Yet, the symphony of her words met an abrupt cessation, their crescendo truncated, as if a lingering note severed mid-aria. An unforeseen calamity manifested, as the apples, once gathered so meticulously within her satchel and nestled in her grasp, succumbed to gravity's unyielding pull. With an undignified spill, they tumbled forth, cascading in a chaotic dance of fruit and physics. In an unscripted moment, her composure faltered, a startled gasp escaping her lips, the hue of her cheeks alighting in a rosy flush. The abruptness and the ensuing tableau conspired to paint an amusing yet endearing scene, a hiccup in the flow of ordinary occurrences.

"Oh my goodness, I'm so so sorry, I-"

Amidst the spillage of apples and the flustering aftermath, Daphne offered a sheepish smile, a blend of embarrassment and shyness gracing her features.

Axyen was occupied by Arnold at the moment, who kept giving Axyen a certain look which always warned Axyen of upcoming misbehavior, and most-likely a mess to clean up alongside it. "Arnold, I don't know what you're planning, but no." I said, as Arnold looked up at me with defiance and mischief, Arnold gave a few squeaks in response to my face of slight irritation. I wasn't in the mood to get in trouble, especially in such a huge space in front of tons of staff. I made sure to keep a close watch on Arnold while eating my food, just to be safe. Axyen than said "Arnold if you don't pull anything you will be rewarded." Axyen said, in a somewhat bored tone. Axyen looked around a bit, ate a bit more, and continued reviewing his notes, and tried color-coding, a note taking technique he learned about after reading a book about how Muggles take notes.

I was focusing while Arnold stayed calm and still, looking around at the various students, all different in appearance, all loud and chatting, or so it seemed. Some ate their foods and kept their eyes fixed to their plates, others were more focused on talking to their friends, and one was standing up and approaching. Arnold turned to Axyen and nudged him, Axyen kept a book out. "Yes Arnold?" I asked, the Pygmy Puff nudged me again, I looked at Arnold, and then he turned in a specific direction, I remained confused, until he looked up where Arnold seemed to be looking. Another fellow Hufflepuff girl was approaching. Axyen remembered her from the Summer camp, he remembered Daphne, who called out to Axyen.

Axyen happily waved and nodded, confirming that Daphne correctly guessed his name. Daphne asked if Axyen remembered her, Axyen did remember her and tried to say "Yeah." Though his voice hid as other students, laughing, chatting, having shouting matches, seemed to completely drown out his words. Daphne seemed to try and reintroduce herself before apples suddenly dropped to the floor and then slightly moved off in different directions. Daphne immediately apologized. "Here, I'll help you pick these up." I said, finding apples before looking around for a moment, Arnold suddenly chased after the apples and brought them back to where the apples first dropped before they spread out. I had no clue where to place all of the apples he could gather without dropping them. "Uhh..." Axyen said, standing awkwardly for a second. "Do you want me to place these apples back...?" I asked Daphne after she gave me a sheepish smile.

"Oh, I-thank you," Daphne stammered, a slight flush warming her cheeks as Axyen offered to pick up the fallen apples. She was caught off guard by her own clumsiness, grateful that he was kind and didn't seem to judge her for the mishap. She took a moment to gather her composure, feeling a mixture of relief and embarrassment. As she steadied herself, her gaze shifted to Arnold, the adorable pygmy puff that caught her eye. A gasp of delight escaped her lips, eyes widening at the sight of the fluffy creature. "Oh my goood! He's so cute!" Daphne exclaimed, unable to contain her excitement. Without a second thought, she plopped down beside Axyen, her eyes fixed on the playful pygmy puff as it merrily chased after the apples, bringing them back in a delightful display.

Turning her attention back to Axyen, she found herself once more fiddling with her fingers, a hint of shyness in her demeanor. "Um... don't worry about it. I'll just... put them on the table, and I'll eat some and return whatever I don't," she managed, trying to assure him while still feeling a tad flustered. A heavy sigh escaped her lips, and she looked down at her lap, her blue eyes reflecting a mix of frustration and determination. "Sorry... it's just that I'm trying my best this year. I really want to get good grades this semester, and I only even woke up this early so that I can study..."

Her words trailed off as her stomach audibly growled, a reminder of her busy day ahead. A small, self-conscious chuckle escaped her as she continued, "I got apples because I can't take a whole plate of food to the library. Being practical, you know." The admission held a touch of vulnerability, a glimpse into the balancing act of academics and everyday challenges that she faced.

Axyen listened to Daphne stammered a bit, but thanking Axyen for the help he provided. "Oh, no problem!" Axyen said happily. Daphne saw Arnold and gasped. Oh no. Axyen thought, Arnold gave Axyen a look of defiance, which was expected from the Pygmy Puff, it always waited for the perfect opportunity to do something to gain a reaction out of Axyen. As soon as Arnold finished gathering the apples, a tongue at startling speed went for Daphne's face. Arnold quickly looked back at Axyen, and Axyen stood in silence for a moment looking at Pygmy Puff, no matter how much he tried, it seemed that the Pygmy Puff never listened, he always caused trouble somehow.
[You decide if Arnold's tongue hits or not, Axyen's reaction will be saved for my next post in this thread.]

Axyen focus shifted back to Daphne who fiddled her fingers a bit, something Axyen could relate to, even if he stopped his stuttering issue, he was still pretty nervous around new people, he simply tried not to show it, as his older brother suggested. Axyen couldn't remember why though, something about impressions maybe? It didn't matter right now though, Axyen needed to focus on gathering these apples and cleaning up the mess. Axyen nodded to Daphne's response and set the apples on the table carefully.

Daphne suddenly looked down and seemed a bit frustrated. Axyen nervously looked down at Arnold, who curiously looked back up at Axyen in response, completely clueless. Axyen wanted to break the awkwardness, or maybe he was the only one being awkward, Axyen couldn't tell. Arnold nudged Axyen's foot. Axyen looked up as Daphne apologized a bit and said that she wanted to get good grades and woke up this early. Axyen looked thoughtful for a moment, before finally saying. "I-I can help... if you want." Axyen said. He already heard his brother in his head. Stop stammering Axyen, keep practicing, otherwise you'll just be stuck with your stuttering issue. Jacob's words repeated in Axyen's head a few times. Axyen brushed the thoughts aside for now, he would practice later. "I um, just need to know what you need help with the most." Axyen added. As long as it's not flying. Axyen thought to himself.

Axyen tried to listen closely, but Daphne's voice faded into silence instead. Axyen didn't hear her stomach growl, thanks to the chit-chattering from the children, around the Great Hall they were all laughing, or talking with their friends. Axyen stopped himself from looking nervous, as much as he for the moment anyways. Axyen listened to Daphne explain that she got apples because she wanted to take it with her to the library. Axyen nodded in understanding. "I see." Axyen said, after giving himself a moment to think about what to do next. For now he would simply wait for her reply on whether she needed someone to study with or not.

Daphne's surprise was evident in her exclamation as the Pygmy Puff made an unexpected leap onto her, playfully licking at her face. Her initial shock gave way to unbridled laughter, her joy reverberating through the air as she scooped up the small creature. The stress that had previously weighed on her seemed to evaporate in that moment. "Aww, you're such a cutie!" Daphne cooed, her voice filled with affection as she continued to cradle the Pygmy Puff. She couldn't resist showering the creature with adoration. "I wish my cat was as cuddly as your pet, Axyen," she confessed, her laughter still echoing in her tone, "he would never do this unless I put tuna on my face." With a playful grin, Daphne turned her attention back to Axyen, her eyes twinkling. The Pygmy Puff's unexpected antics had brought a delightful interlude to their day, and she was ready to continue their conversation with the same enthusiasm.

Daphne's eyes sparkled with surprise and gratitude when Axyen extended his offer to help her. Her face lit up, and without hesitation, she leaned in to embrace him tightly. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Her excitement was contagious, and her natural affection showed in her warm hug. Yet, as quickly as she had embraced him, she recognized the possibility that he might not be comfortable with it. She withdrew with an apologetic look in her eyes, although her beaming smile remained. "Sorry, Axyen," she said, her tone sincere. "I mean, I'd love that. You are literally my hero!" Her words conveyed her immense appreciation, and her admiration for Axyen was clear in the way she regarded him.

Observing Axyen's slight stutter, Daphne couldn't help but wonder whether it stemmed from nervousness or if it was simply a part of his natural speech pattern. Regardless, it didn't phase her in the least-she never judged after all. "You're a duelist in our house, right?" she inquired with a warm and understanding smile. "How are you in Charms? I didn't do the homework for that yet." Her curiosity about their shared class was evident, and Daphne's cheerfulness continued to radiate as she addressed the topic of dueling. "Speaking of duels, I have to get back to attending those games," she mentioned, a hint of excitement in her voice. "I've been quite caught up in Quidditch, but I really want to show my appreciation for this. I have a feeling you can cast some pretty powerful spells!" She playfully nudged his side with her elbow and winked.

Axyen watched in horror as Arnold licked Daphne. "Arnold! I have told you about not doing that to people!" Axyen scolded. Axyen however was slightly surprised Daphne didn't find it startling or anything similar to that. Although that still didn't make it okay, Axyen decided he would speak with Arnold later, or at least, that was meant to be the plan. Axyen was surprised to hear Daphne say that she wishes her cat's affection was similar to Arnold's. Axyen had never thought of it in that manner. Axyen thought silently for a moment, maybe he should loosen up a bit, after all Pygmy Puffs do need to have fun every once in a while. Axyen smiled at Arnold, as long as Arnold didn't create a mess, or didn't cause lots of trouble, everything would turn out fine. Axyen chuckled a bit as he listened to Daphne mention that she would need a tuna on her face to get similar affection from her cat. Arnold seemed content for causing joy (or so he assumed based on his observation).

Axyen was surprised getting hugged so suddenly while Daphne repeated the phrase 'thank you' a few times, Axyen was unsure on what to do in this situation, and before he could even react Daphne pulled away, which left Axyen speechless for a few seconds. Axyen felt himself blush a tiny bit. Daphne quickly apologized. "Oh - um, it's alright, and no problem." Axyen said, those words managed to flow out naturally, probably because they were the only words that seemed like a suitable reaction. Axyen blushed a bit more for being called a hero, he didn't know how to react to compliments other than the same repetitive 'thank you'. Axyen smiled, and said "Oh, t-thanks!" Axyen could already hear his brother, but pushed the thoughts aside, he needed to stay focused.

Axyen looked down a bit thinking, but immediately looked back up when Daphne asked if Axyen was a duelist. Axyen nodded in confirmation. "Yeah, just joined this year. Kind of nervous for my first match." Axyen admitted to Daphne, although it probably was a poster somewhere he still decided to ask. "How'd you know? It's probably right in front of me, but I can only ever seem to focus on classes and-" Axyen stopped himself from rambling. "Sorry about that, sometimes I just ramble on and on...." Axyen said, carefully making sure that he didn't do it again while explaining it. Axyen listened to Daphne ask Axyen how his Charms skills were. "Ooh! I love Charms! I can definitely help you with that!" Axyen said with excitement, Charms seemed to contest with Defense Against the Dark Arts many times, although usually Axyen found himself having a much bigger passion for Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Axyen listened to Daphne mention how she may be attending Dueling matches soon after being caught up in Quidditch for a while. If there was one class Axyen would fail, it was flying, the moment he looked down is the same moment he would be heading down. Daphne mentioned that she also had a feeling Axyen was able to cast a few powerful spells, which reminded Axyen of the time that he had successfully learned and cast Petrificus Totalus. Axyen wondered if Daphne was a Quidditch player or simply a massive Quidditch fan, so Axyen decided to ask. "Hey um," Axyen paused momentarily, he saw Arnold moving, but Arnold was simply going in a small circle. "By any chance, do you play Quidditch?" Axyen asked Daphne.

"It's alright, Axyen! I truly don't mind; it's in their nature to be so affectionate. My father is a dragonologist, but he's studied many magical creatures, including pygmy puffs. I even have a hippogriff at home; I'm used to licks and, well, bites too," Daphne responded with a soft giggle. She gazed at Axyen, who seemed perturbed by the situation. Her aim was to reassure him that he was still being a responsible pet owner. Her eyes met Axyen's, conveying empathy and understanding. As someone familiar with magical creatures, she knew that sometimes, their behavior could be unpredictable. A gentle smile graced her lips as she continued to pet the pygmy puff, soothing it with her touch. "Don't worry about it!" Daphne's encouraging words flowed with genuine enthusiasm as she sought to alleviate Axyen's nervousness. Her bright smile radiated warmth, reassuring him in the face of the unknown. "You're welcome, and you totally shouldn't be nervous about dueling, Axyen! Trust me, the first time is always scary, but then it gets easier, and your teammates are always there to teach you as well. This goes for all sports." At least she hoped so.

She spoke from a place of experience, her eyes reflecting her conviction in Axyen's potential. Daphne was no stranger to the thrill and jitters that came with competitive games. The camaraderie and support from teammates could work wonders in boosting one's confidence, a sentiment she had experienced firsthand. With a nod, Daphne continued to dispel his anxiety. "If it helps, I'll make sure to be there in the audience for all of your games—cheering you on!" Her playful touch on Axyen's shoulder punctuated her point, filled with infectious excitement and support. "And I saw the rosters in the Common Room," she answered when he inquired about how she knew. Daphne's words bore no hint of secrecy, her openness evident. "It shows the members of all three sports teams and when there are openings and such."

Daphne then moved any dishes that was directly in front of her to the side before she got out her second year Charms book along with her homework, putting it in front of her on table. "Mhmm! I'm a Second String Seeker in Quidditch, I've only been able to participate once though. Last summer, it was against Durmstrang, and the Seeker...well..." She glanced to the side and rubbed the back of her neck, "He pretty much got...knocked out-no fault of his of course-..so I took over and managed to find the snitch!" Daphne's cheeks flushed lightly, "And then um..I missed the snitch when I dived down towards the ground and got knocked out too." She shrugged, "Buuut at least I got to play and that's what counts at the end of the day-teamwork! Hufflepuff has pretty great players, it's just that Durmstrang plays pretty rough."

Axyen listened to Daphne's words. "Right..." Axyen said while looking at Arnold. Axyen supposed it simply just couldn't be helped, Arnold just loved showing affection to others. Axyen still had to consider that some people still certainly disliked being licked, and some may not like the sight of a Pygmy Puff's tongue. Axyen wanted to be nice to Arnold while still getting his point across, yet it felt nearly impossible to teach something without being excessively nice or strict. Axyen would probably need to check out a few books about being a Magical pet owner later, perhaps there was another way to be affectionate. Axyen could not imagine getting bitten by magical creatures, well he could, but getting used to being bitten. "Does that, urm.. happen often?" Axyen asked Daphne, thinking for a minute. "The biting I mean." Axyen said, providing some clarification on what he meant.

Arnold seemed to enjoy getting pet, as he rolled around happily in a few small circles, Arnold stayed in close proximity though. Axyen was completely fine with Arnold rolling around as long as no trouble was caused and he didn't go too far off. Axyen listened to Daphne's words, even then, it was hard not being concerned about the first match. It did make Axyen feel a little better that he would be able to talk to some of his teammates and see how they would help him. Axyen suddenly felt the need to train his spell casting, accuracy, he would somehow need to find a way to practice dodging and more.

Axyen felt himself felt himself blush when Daphne said that she would be attending Axyen's dueling games as she playfully touched Axyen's shoulder, Axyen always felt awkward when he got compliments, it also made him much more shy at times as well. "Oh, uh, th-thanks! I'll d-definitely make sure to attend your Quidditch games as well!" Axyen said with slight excitement, despite practicing so much, trying not to overthink his words, he still stuttered, but Axyen had practiced for what felt like a long time. Why am I still stuttering? I had all summer to practice... Axyen thought to himself. Arnold seemed to be quite interested in the conversation, despite not being able to understand English too well(only understands a few commands). Arnold seemed to want more pets, as he rolled over to Daphne again. Axyen also learned that there were rosters in the Common Room, which meant that at some point, they probably were quite literally right in front of him. "Oh." Axyen said, he felt slightly embarrassed that he was unable to notice something that seemed so obvious. "Uh, thanks, I can't believe I haven't noticed that...." Axyen admitted.

Axyen learned that Daphne was a second string Seeker and she actually got to play in a match(a match Axyen didn't attend) and how the first Seeker got knocked out so Daphne went ahead and played and even found the snitch, but then she also ended up on the ground as well. Daphne on a positive note decided that she got to play and that was what truly matter. Axyen smiled, it seemed Daphne could turn just about anything positive. Axyen didn't see the match, so he was unsure how Durmstrang, another magical school, played, but he chose to believe Daphne. Axyen still didn't understand how people were able to fly into the air and play sports, Axyen imagined he would faint the second he even thought he was starting to lift into the air.
