I got there and saw that Mr. Wrinkles was lying on my pillow, asleep with Fluffers. I smiled a bit and went over and sat on my bed. I thought about what was going on outside of this building. Remus is sitting through torture while I smile and laugh with friends and animals. It is just unfair! I sighed as I stood up and went back down. I got to the common room and saw Peter shaking his head at James and Sirius while he held Tweety close to his chest. "Thanks Peter!" I said, quickly going over before he gave in and gave them Tweety.
"Dang it." Sirius said, eyeing Tweety. Then the amount of noise in the common room raised as Capella walked in. Mostly from people talking about her. I took no attention to her entrance.
"What? Trying to prank me, huh?" I said. James nodded violently and I laughed a bit. Tweety flew down and perched herself on my knee. "So what were you going to do then?"
"We were going to decide that once we got Tweety." Sirius said. I shook my head.
"You weren't ever going to get a hold of her." I said, throwing a hand over Peter's shoulders.
"So, Marley, why are you staying home for the holidays? Or was I right about your parents knowing you are an idiot?" Capella Black said. I didn't answer, not wanting to tell her about my personal life. "Going to answer or confirm my theory?"
"Are you going home for the holidays?" I asked. Capella didn't answer. "Got it." I stood up and held Tweety in my hands. "I'm going to bed, see you guys tomorrow." I said. I then turned around and went up to my dorm. I got to my dorm and sat on my bed. Mr. Wrinkles opened his eyes and saw me and Tweety. He looked at Tweety for a solid two minutes, before standing up and trying to like her. I laughed a bit as I pulled Tweety away from him. "No licking the bird." I told him. As if he actually understood me, he backed away, but still was looking hopefully at Tweety. I let Tweety loose and she flew up and chose a window higher in the room. I laughed a bit as she flew/fell back down and collected many of tiny things that I assumed meant she was trying to make a nest. I picked up Fluffers and opened my drawer. I placed him in the small bed I made for him. I had a whole drawer assigned to him since if I didn't I would've felt bad. I left the drawer open just a bit in case he needed to get out. I yawned a bit and then laid down. I took off my glasses and didn't really care about my wig. I fell asleep soon after I hit the pillow. When I woke up the next day, I got dressed and went to breakfast. I jumped a bit when the book I was reading was pushed down quickly. "Dashia, why? Just why? I lost my page." I said. Dashia laughed a bit.
"Sorry, but you need to eat. Come on, the food is good, I swear, you won't get poisoned." Dashia said. I rolled my eyes as she laughed. I ate breakfast and then looked at her. "Fine, continue reading." She said with a sigh. I smiled at her and as I was about to continue reading, someone jumped into the seat next to me.
"What do you want James?" I asked. He laughed.
"I can't be that bad, right?" James said. Dashia scoffed.
"You are. I don't know how Remus or Quinn put up with you. Well, actually, Remus I may get, Quinn however." Dashia said. I looked at James.
"Ignore her. Anyways, whatcha need?" I asked. James looked back at Dashia, who was now in a deep conversation with Lily about their dream jobs.
"Well… We need help." James said. I thought he was going to continue and say what he needed, but he didn't.
"With?" I said. He grabbed me and pulled me over to where he, Sirius and Peter were sitting. Dashia and Lily were now having a debate about which classes were better, so they didn't really notice. "You know, every once and a while you could ask me to come over instead of pulling me. I lost my page again." I told them.
"You and Remus are too obsessed with books. You need to get out more." Sirius said. I looked at him, confused.
"I go outside." I told him. He shook his head lightly.
"Forget that, anyways, could you help us with a prank?" Sirius said. I shook my head and started to stand up.
"Nope. I'm not helping you guys, then I'll get punished as well." I said. James pulled me back down into the seat. I sighed. "Fine. What do you have in mind?" I asked.
"Well, the tree. We want to make it spin in the middle of the feast on the last day and have it get on the tables and many other-" Peter started, I interrupted.
"Seriously? You can do better than that." I said. Peter looked at me weirdly. James and Sirius smirked(They smirked because that was their goal. To make Quinn complain that it was a lane idea and give them a better one.).
"Like what?" Peter said cautiously. I grabbed my book.
"Well, I saw a charm somewhere in here that could help you with the tree spinning, but maybe you could also have the knights do something. Like sing Christmas carols annoyingly loud. And you could have it start to snow inside if you tried hard enough, I'm sure Remus would be able to do that. " I said. Sirius and James nodded for me to continue. I shrugged. "I don't know. Here, look through this book and maybe you can find some more things, I'm going to go to class." I said, giving them the book. Sirius immediately started looking through it.
"Quinn, did you just do the impossible?" James said, looking between Sirius and the book he was reading. I nodded.
"I think so, see you guys later!" I said. James laughed a bit and looked over Sirius' shoulder when he pointed at a charm. I waved goodbye to Peter, the only not who was not intrigued by the book. He was busy finishing his breakfast. He waved back and I left to my first class, charms.
