Kellen hadn't planned on going to Hogsmeade for the day, but a surprising lack of homework hanging over his head and a need for new potions ingredients inspired him. Besides, it would be good to get away from the castle for a while. He wasn't feeling particularly talkative that morning, instead deciding just to enjoy the outside and the warm weather for a while. Plus, it wasn't raining, which was a bonus in March in Scotland.

"Ooof!" Drew cried out, mostly at the surprise of having a Hungarian fireball adhere herself to his back. Instinctively, he hitched her up farther, getting a good grip on her so she wouldn't fall.
All he needed now was a staff person to answer his question.

"'Ello, love." Alhana grinned, giving him a quick kiss on his jaw. She let her arms rest over his shoulders and crossed her wrists in front of him, not at all worried she was going to be dropped. With a quick glance and a smile towards the professor Drew seemed to have adressed she asked, "Whatcha waiting on?"

The weather had turned for the better and Rael could not be happier as she stepped out of the castle. Patches of grass could be seen and that meant the weather was getting warmer, and it also meant it was getting closer to a get-together she was looking forward to. As she walked toward the carriages she kept a lookout for a Ravenclaw she was to meet. She pulled on the cuffs of the black shirt she had chosen to wear under her concert t-shirt, while she continued to search.

Weather, great. Getting out of the castle for a while, great. Getting away from Deryn, most excellent. Sonja made her way from the castle down to the carriages, without a care in the world. She planned on just wandering around Hogsmeade, with nowhere in particular she wanted to go. The thought of being outside for the day was enough to make the sour, bitter Sonja smile out of pure delight. She glanced around at the others leaving the castle. Shoving her hands in the pockets of her jeans, she continued to trek through the grounds.

Deryn stood in the doorway and stretched her arms out. It was a beautiful day, and she could see the carriages lined up, waiting to take them all to Hogsmeade for the day. It felt so good to be out of the castle and able to do whatever she wanted. Taking in the sun, Deryn made her way across the grounds. She scanned around, looking at all the other happy faces, until her eyes rested on a particularly happy face also trudging through the grounds. Sonja.
Deciding to not let the wretched girl ruin her day, Deryn continued down to the carriages and brushed right past Sonja without even acknowledging her. Hoping it would make her mad, Deryn kept walking, with her head buried in the hood of her sweater, and her eyes watching her feet.

If all else failed, Charon knew he could just wait until all the other students had gone to the village. After all, they had planned on meeting outside the school, and she wouldn't leave without him, would she? Unless she really needed chocolate and couldn't resist the call of Honeyduke's.
He started searching a little more intently. He did not plan to be left behind in favor of some candy.

Lilith Thorncross barely made the cut for being allowed to go on Hogsmeade trips, but was sure glad she did. She needed to restock some potions and hoped the town had a decent store to buy them from. With a serious expression on her face, she strutted out the castle doors towards the group of people who were going to the same destination as she was.
She would not follow them, no. And she could not lead them. So she stood to the side, leading herself and not making eye contact with any of the students, having not seen any green robes, she decided it wasnt worth the while even sparing a glance to the other students.

With the professors aparently busy answering a gazillion other questions, Drew gave up and started making the hike to town. "I wanted to know if we had to take the carriages," he answered. Knowing Raynor and her ideas on security, that was probably her intent, but he had seen a number of others just walking and no one was stopping them. Drew figured he could claim ignorance if anyone yelled at them for walking. Besides, it wasn't as if he hadn't tried to ask...
"So where to first?" he asked Alhana, grinning over his shoulder at her.

"Honeydukes!" Alhana exclaimed, throwing her arm out and pointing in the general direction of where the mother load of sweets was located. "Onward laddie!" she commanded, poking him in the shoulder. She paused and swiveled her ehad around to get a view of things. "Wow. So this si what it feels like to be your height. Wicked." the Gryffindor's face cracked into a broad smile. "Are you sure I won't be too heavy to carry?"

Drew started off at a trot at her command, but stopped short and looked over his shoulder. "Wait... you're expecting me to carry you all day?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at her. Before she could answer, he started up again, picking up his pace and making sure to bounce her pretty good. "You aren't that heavy. Just don't expect me to carry you and all of your shopping too though."

Alhana's relaxed posture suddenly became tense and she clung tightly to Drew. "Oiy! Stop all the bouncing, love! Are you trying to shake what brain cells I have left out?" she asked, starting to rethink her piggy-back ride.

Drew stepped it up to a gallop, jostling her along until the death grip she had on his shoulders started getting painful. He gave one more hitch, making sure he had a good grip on her before slowing to a calmer pace. Galloping had been tiring him out faster anyway.
"Better?" he asked.

Hearing a familiar voice behind her, Arianna picked up her own pace. It wasn't likely anyone would notice her, but she didn't want to chance it. Especially when her list of places to visit probably weren't the most reputable businesses in town. Yes, she could go the more pleasant places, but that meant running into someone she knew. Which was what she was trying to avoid.
