The Finer Arts Of Aiming

[seanna]

Just because they were both prefects, Seanna didn't so no reason why they couldn't have any fun. Plus, with what they were going to do, technically, it wouldn't be harming anyone and they could pass it off by saying they were practicing the finer arts of aiming. Seanna had only just a year left to prefect everything that she had learned since Year five and she wanted to make sure she was ready for the wizarding world.

Truth be told, Seanna was a little afraid of leaving Hogwarts. Both her Mother and Father seemed set on the idea of her running the museum after she had left Hogwarts, but Seanna had other ideas. The Hufflepuff was thinking that maybe she could get a job at the Apothecary shop in Diagon Alley, figuring her love for potions and hopefully getting an O in Potions, would help in getting the job.

Pushing those thoughts outside, Seanna walked through the oak doors to the courtyard, the new product from the Weasley's store safely inside her bag, making a quite slushing noise as she took the steps two at at time, finally landing on the courtyard lawn. Sure, it would stink after awhile, blowing up so many waterdungbombs, but Seanna figured that was the fun part of it all. Wandering over to the fountain, Seanna took a seat on the edge, waiting for one of the Gryffindor Prefect's to arrive.

((Tristan//open)

[Tristan Howard]

Oh yes. Finally some kind of fun. He had hardly any fun last year as a newly appointed prefect. All he kept thinking that if he were to mess up, that someone would report his incident, and he would of lost his badge. However, things going right now so far, but he kept wondering what was going on with Felicity. Seemingly, she seems like she don't care when he and her have to do prefect meetings and the first night of patrolling. He just went ahead and thought it was just a first time thing. Shoot, he did the same thing, sort of, when he first became Prefect. That was after talking with Keagan most of the time. Though he had to admit, that Keagan taught Tristan many things. He was already missing her.

Heading to the courtyard, he had walked by a lot of people, seeing stuff he didn't want to see. Two slytherin couple were making out behind a stone. A Ravenclaw was picking his nose. One of his Gryffindor housemates was crying. He couldn't see any Hufflepuffs, but whatever.

He finally made it and saw Seanna. Rushing to her, he was already smiling.

"So, do you have it?" he asked grinning.

[seanna]

"Sure do!" Seanna exclaimed as Tristan came up to her and she nodded her head enthusiastically towards him, lifting up a yellow bag in which held the watery dungbombs. "I had an accident with one of them and I'm afraid one has already gone off in the owlry" The girl's brown eyes reflected a bit of guiltyness in them when she told Tristan about the missing bomb. The Owl's in the Owlry hadn't been happy with her when she got the package that was left up there for her.

Actually, the owl's weren't that happy to see her when she first walked inside the room, either. Seanna figured that had to do with the last time she was in there and Percy ran amok in there, frightening them all. So when she picked the bag up and took out her new present that she got for herself by mail order, the owls weren't too happy with her when she accidentally dropped one.

"Lucky for us, there's still enough in there for our fun" Seanna said to Tristan, grinning up to him. "Or well, our practicing session" The Huffle girl corrected herself. No, that wasn't what it really was, but she had to keep reminding herself that in case they got caught. Seanna couldn't really see how they could get into trouble if they did caught, though, it wasn't like they were going to damage school property or anything.

"Did you bring anything?" Seanna asked Tristan, now wandering if the Gryffindor Prefect bought anything along for their session of fun.

[Tristan Howard]

"Did you bring anything?"

"Ohhhh yeaaahhhh," he said nodding, while grinning. He grabbed out his bag as seemed like a little egg. "I have more in my bag, but these little runts make the loudest and brightest firecracker ever. You can actually see it in the daytime, like now. It's pretty amazing!" he said as he was excited. He then decided to try out his product he bought. He put his bag on the ground.

"Watch,"

He squatted, then used his might and threw the egg as hard as he can through the sky. You could hear a whistle as the egg went in the sky. Then the egg blew up with the most beautiful, yet loud red firecrackers.

"Ah, yeah. They work," he said as he created them himself... with help.

[seanna]

Excited brown eyes watched as Tristan bought out little eggs from his bag, that really looked like any normal egg someone would buy from a shop in a carton. Then Tristan threw the little egg into the air and it erupted into a amazing red firework, the Gryffindor boy was right, you could really see the firework as it burst into the air, and Seanna watched it excitedly as it sparkled in the bright, blue sky that was dotted with a few white clouds here and there.

"Oh, they're great!" Seanna exclaimed, not sure how the little firecracker eggs would tie in with the whole practicing session thing if they were to get caught, but maybe they could say they were actually eggs and someone else had set the fireworks off instead of them. It was a long shot, but hopefully, a good, long shot, she didn't want to get into any trouble after all.

"Did you make them yourself, or are they a Weasley product?" Seanna inquired, wondering where Tristan got the little egg firecrackers from, the little eggs could come in handy for so many situations and no one would be none the wiser that you had actually set them off, they were a perfect pranking device.

[Tristan Howard]

"These things?" he started. "Yeah, me and my little bro made them last summer. I rather not touch another Weasley product anymore, for atleast now. I'm not allowed to have them at home. I blew up the family barn two years ago, and Grandmum thinks the Weasley products are the devil, so... yeah," he said. Grandma's. They were so protective.

"But.... I know how to make them myself now. I was planning to do them at the End of the Year feast next year. It will be our... Goodbye Hogwarts prank. I was thinking of ridings brooms through the Great Hall and throwing the firecrackers or something. But I dunno how Raynor would act. But, I say, what the bloody hell? It's our last year, y'know?" he said laughing. He was already thinking of it.

[seanna]

Biting back a giggle that was threatening to reach the surface while Seanna listened to Tristan as he explained why he didn't like the Weasley products and as a result of using one, blew up his family barn. That was where Seanna was having trouble holding her giggle in, now she found something in common with Tristan that she didn't think possible-- blowing up things that resulted in damaged property.

A part of Seanna wanted to tell Tristan about her blowing up the quidditch lockers, but then decided against it. The Hufflepuff wasn't sure what kind of reaction she would get from the Gryffindor and Seanna didn't really want to explain why she blew up two of the locker rooms.

"I think you've outdone the Weasley's by inventing those egg firecrackers, though" Seanna told Tristan, admirably. Really, they were a great invention-- seemingly an egg, then BOOM! it was a firecracker. The giggles escaped the Hufflepuff that time as she had a mental image of the eggs sitting innocently on a table when all of a sudden they started to fly through the air, erupting in fireworks. It was just too funny not to imagine.

Giggling subsiding, she nodded her head empathetically with Tristan. "I say do it. It'd be great to have some fun at our last end of year feast" The Huffle thought it was a brilliant idea, the end of year feast would be sad for the most part seeing as how it was to be their last, and Seanna couldn't really see no harm in bringing some excitement to a sad occasion.

"What's Raynor going to do, anyhow? I mean, it's not like she can put you on detention or anything after you have left school" In Seanna's eyes, the Headmistress couldn't really do anything after the fact, except for throwing Tristan out or giving him a bad reference or something. Even the throwing out would seem pointless. "I'll help you if you want" Seanna added on, thinking that it would be incredibly fun to do something fun at their last end of year feast.

[Tristan Howard]

((Sorry it took so long!))

"Yeah, I should go to the owners and tell them about the bloody invention, maybe I could get paid. But, nah, they probably wouldn't give credit," he said criticizing the Weasley products. After blowing up his barn, he never did like the Weasley products anymore, so he decided just to create his own. But, most of his experiences of building explosives was most of muggle technology and wizardry power. It was a good career option, but not exactly he would love to do for the rest of his life.

"Yeah, true," he said after the what's Professor Raynor going to do.

"Really!!??" he exclaimed, after hearing she would help Tristan.

"It would take some time.. I say we begin work after the Winter Holidays," he said.

[seanna]

"Could you, possibly sell the product on your own? That way you could be your own boss and get paid what you deserve, instead of half the payment and such, like they do sometimes with merchandise" It was how it worked in the Marcellus's souvenir shop. There wasn't much in the shop itself, just smaller paintings of some important, larger paintings. Half the payment went to the owner's of the paintings that they knew off, and the other half went to what Seanna assumed was for renovations of the museum.

"Uh huh" Seanna bobbed her head up and down enthusiastically. The Huffle would have to somehow fit it around all the other stuff she had to do, but she was sure that she could find time to help Tristan with the last big something for their last year. Lowering her voice a bit, Seanna said; "Yup, that sounds good. All work should be done very subtly, though. We don't want anyone to find out what we're planning until the time comes" They'd have to be very quiet in planning the feast surprise, if someone overheard them planning something, they'd be sure to have it stopped then and there.

"Should we start practicing? I'm dying to see what my waterdungbombs and the egg crackers can do when they're set off together" What she'd seen in the owlry was only the start for the bombs, Seanna thought. Brown eyes eying off the egg crackers, Seanna was just wondering what they could do if they were put together with a big bang.

[Tristan Howard]

"Exactly my point! I think I might as well do that!" he exclaimed at the part of selling his product. He then was hearing the rest of what she was saying. Thinking about it, he thought of doing the trick really great. Of course, he had talked to Drew about this before, but reasons why he didn't want to was gonna keep private, unless people already know already. But, it could affect Tristan too. But he didn't think that the Ministry of Magic would say anything about it. At least, he didn't think so.

But then going back to what she was saying. "Yeah! Let's try them out," he cried as he awaited the magical prank.

[seanna]

"You should, I would definitely buy the cracker" Seanna said, grinning over at Tristan. While she thought the Weasley's products were good, she thought Tristan's idea was better than the normal, everyday firecrackers that one could buy at either the Weasley's or Zonko's joke shops, the egg aspect of the firecracker bought an added flavor to the standard firecrackers around.

"Yay!" Seanna exclaimed, standing up from the water fountain, her yellow bag jiggling as she did so. Squatting down, she placed her bag on the grass and unzipped it, reaching in for one of the waterdungbombs. "As you can see, they look like any, ordinary dungbomb, but the jiggling kind of sets them apart" Seanna explained to Tristan, standing up again with the product she had purchased in her hand.

Reaching into her robes very slowly, so she wouldn't drop the bomb from her other hand, Seanna pulled out her wand and sat it on the edge of the waterfall, her eyes glinting mischievously. "You ready?" Seanna asked Tristan, grinning again over at the boy near her, the Huffle was intending to use Reducto for blowing up her dungbombs, but first she was going to see what would happen once they threw the two products up in the air together. Her wand was just their as an excuse for a reason in case a Professor came along and asked what they were doing.
