New (renovated) treehouse with the Badger flag

[KoNeko]

The other thread was getting sort of big, so I'll bring everyone back up to speed:

Firstly:

**A lovely wooden tree house with a painted yellow roof and a cute flag with a badger on it flying from a home-made flag pole sits nestled amongst the the leaves and branches of an over sized mullberry tree. It has windows with drawn back yellow curtains and a rope ladder to the lower branches from which you have to climb the tree the rest of the way.

Inside are some bean bags and cushions for seating, a few blankets (one especially for Rue ) and colouring books surrounded by boxes of crayons (from Motley's shop of course ). Someone has even started a crayon drawing on the wall. There are some delightful books on boxes over in the far corner and a hand painted Hufflepuff banner across the back wall.

This is the Hufflepuff tree house where they come to talk about badgers, crayon colours, butts and vegetables. (i got that from your siggy En ;D)**


*Nierme sits on a comfy cushion near the window, reaching out and picking mullberries for afternoon tea, waiting for everyone else to arrive*

And then... after ten insane months:

KoNeko said:

*grins* Aye, nice skirt, Jules. I bet you get that one alot. ;D Do you have a sporran as well? Oh, I have a question about kilts, okay? If you're wearing a kilt and you need to go to the bathroom, and you look on the doors of the male/female bathrooms, if they have the traditional stick people signs on them, how do you decide which bathroom to go in, if the difference by default between the male and female bathrooms is the presence or absence of a skirt-like object?

Er, anyway... nice boots though. *continues roasting her mallows over the fire*

Natz said:

I hardly ever wear skirts either Lirael. I went mad this year by actually possesing one.

Cool now we can toast marshmallows in the safely contained fire. ;D

I like your boots jullian.

Koneko i think they still go in the same toliet they normally go in despite the symbols.

Julian said:

Julianj grinned at the question.
"Well both I guess, I'm a guy so I can use the guys, but then again I guess my Kilt can pass for the symbol of the girls so more fun for me" Julian grin "Although Snape casts me a wry look when I try the girls room"

[KoNeko]

KoNeko said:

*laughs* You mean you've gone into the girls' toilet around here? I bet they're a cleaner sight than the boys' ones... Maybe Snape wants a kilt as well?

Oh, but yeah. Your combat boots are cool. I have a pair myself, but they have like, a 4.5 inch sole on them. ;D

Natz said:

Really you think snape wants a kilt Koneko?

I did have combat boots but they are now a size too small for me now

I wonder if the girls toliets are cleaner than the boys ones.

Julian said:

"Hey cool, lets transform into each other and find out, wouldn't mind being KoNeko for the day"

Julian stole Jameson's Marshmallow while he wasn't looking and stuck a Bert Bots bean in place of it....a vomit flovour one he hoped

Natz said:

You will have just to trust luck with Bertie Botts every flavor beans julian.

Yes thats a cool idea but what about me who keeps blowing holes through walls everytime she tries to do magic?

Have you got any ideas on how i could transform into someone else?

KoNeko said:

*Laughs* It's not that easy being me, you know. There's so much terrorising and socialisng to do, and not enough time...
*grins and straightens up* Alright then Jules, we can swap bodies sometime, as long as 1) we can swap back and 2) it's after you're all done with your ToD dare and 3) I get to wear your kilt! ;D

Oh, and Natz, if you want to be someone else, I'm sure we can fix that up for you. Two words my friend: polyjuice potion.

[Mikki]

Ah, home sweet home!! *walks in and plops down on a couch, grinning* hey Neko!! thanks for updating the thread. ;D

[Dora the Explorer]

Hey everyone! *walks in with Nerk on her shoulder and sits down in a bean bag* I haven't been in here yet, very nice! Hey, crayons! *starts to color on the wall*

[KoNeko]

*Sits up from where she had been lying next to the bonfire (don't worry, it's in a metal bin )*

Oh hey guys. Want to join us? We're just roasting marshmallows and having a good sleepover. Dora, if you want, there are bits of the floor upstairs that we've painted on, you could do a bit of a portrait or something up there and then I'll lacquer it so it's sealed into the floor, ok?

[En]

*returns to the scene with a haggard expression, very messy hair, a torn left pant leg... and a very healthy brown chicken*

Hi guys.

*sinks wearily to the ground near the tree and fumbles in a pocket for some dried corn*

[Dora the Explorer]

Hey, cool! *draws a picture of Nerk, then looks at en* Ok, WHAT is with the chicken? *gasps* Are you going to cook it?

[KoNeko]

En! Are you alright? I'll get the first aid kit... and maybe a comb... and the sewing kit...

And yeah, what's with the chicken? Did it do... that... to you?

*she bustles in the kitchen and hands En a mug of coffee*

[Jameson]

*Stuffs a marshmallow in his mouth as he watches the drama with the chicken unfold. He raises his eyebrows at En's dischevelled appearance*

Looks like a pretty vicious chicken..

[Natz]

I don't really want to risk polyjuice potion Koneko i mean what happens if it goes wrong?

Begins to toast a marshmallow over the fire in the metal bin.

En what happened to you and what is with that chicken?

[KoNeko]

*thinks* Hey Natz, how about I whip up a batch of polyjuice potion and I'll test it out on Jules and myeself, ok? I mean, if he's game...

*grins at Jules and winks*

[En]

*looks drained* No -- the chicken's here as my guest, if that's all right with everyone -- but definitely no eating the chicken. And he's harmless, just has a bit of a Napoleon complex. His name is Pollemagne.

*takes the coffee very, very, very gratefully* It's a long story, but basically I got drawn into a chicken liberation incident, and... Pollemagne just sort of latched onto me.

I probably look worse than I feel. My bowtruckles got frightened off during the whole chicken-factory event.

*takes a long and relieved sip of coffee*

[Jameson]

Aww poor chicken..

*He gave Pollemagne a sympathetic look.*

I thought he looked a bit anaemic. I bet he's never been outside in natural daylight before. I don't think I'd want to eat a chicken that had been raised in that way.

*Offers the chicken some marshmallow but it seems disinterested. A troubled expression crossed Jamesons face.*


Were there other chickens? Did they all escape or were some left behind?

[Nie]

If you want En we can find her a crate and get some straw and she can stay here in the treehouse over in the corner near the window. Should help her to calm down if she can make a nest for herself and stuff. And we'll make you some more coffee as well.

*scurries off to find a crate and some straw*

[S.S Tigress]

*Tigress sneaks in quietly and climbs up the rest of the tree to reach the badge flag. Then stuffs the flag in her pocket and climbs back down and runs away from the tree discreetly. In the flag's place is a note*

" Dear Huffs,

Bwahahaha!!
Oh what sorrow you must feel,
for your badger has gone and disapeared
But do not fret my little Huffs,
your flag can be retrieved!
If one is able to find it....

Sincerely,
Your loving Slytherin, Tigress"
