re-education (through labor). [[Moki/Open]]

[Katelynn Creperum]

Alas, it was school time again. Nothing better than a bunch of talkative, hormonal girls bustling about the girls' dormitory, right? Oh, and don't forget the equally as hormonal guys oggling you from the corners of the common room. Mmm, this was a reminder of how much Katelynn loved Hogwarts. Granted, it was better than at home, but still, most of the people here were a bunch of immature prats who didn't know their arse from their face. Even Slytherins had the misfortune to act like fools, seeing as some of them tended to be overly large and less than intelligent baboons. She wasn't even sure how they managed to walk and breathe at the same time.

Because of all of the above, Katelynn had decided to take a little trip outside. Dante was messing around with his guy friends (some of which were the ones oggling her) and she didn't see any reason to disturb their fun. Besides, she didn't want anything too exciting at the moment, anyway. The blonde carried her one-strap black bookbag across the lawns, towards the large boulder by the Whomping Willow. People normally strayed away from the brutal tree, so she was safe from all sorts of nonsense near it.

She climbed up on top of the rock. Even though she wasn't the shortest or smallest person at school, she wasn't abnormally tall, either, and getting on top of the boulder wasn't terribly easy. Once she made it to the top, however, she smiled. It was rather nice. Tucking her legs beneath her, Katelynn took one of her textbooks out of her back: Transfiguration for the Advanced. There was no specific advanced classes, and this was more N.E.W.T. level stuff, but it was her favorite subject. Plus, she wanted to take Animagi eventually, and this was good studying. Her blue eyes took in the words, fully comprehending every single one and hoping for minimal disturbances.

[[Mokiii. =D Sorry, it's sorta lame, but I had nothing. Plus, I have to go. xD]]

[Moki Kagawa]

OOC: Hahaha no worries, but sorry to Katelynn 'cause I'm about to disrupt her studying. Hehehe.

Moki sighed as she trudged through the halls of the school. Classes were starting, and that meant fun times were about to take a backseat to reading books and taking tests. Thankfully, none of hers started up until tomorrow, so this was her last day to just hang out. Still, she had decided to be a little proactive, and was carrying the level 4 Charms text concealed within a very convincing knockoff purse. She was dressed in her everyday Muggle clothes, figuring she might as well enjoy the time she had to wear them, as classes meant the return of the most unflattering and not exactly kick-around-comfortable robes Monday through Friday. She wasn't a fashion snob, but she did like to have a little fun with her clothes, and the school uniform ties weren't exactly what she had in mind. She was a little down about all this, and decided to attempt to elevate her mood by doing her reading outside.

As she exited the castle and traversed across the lawns, she noticed quite a few younger students didn't have quite the same idea she did. Obviously first or second years, they apparently didn't have any required assignments before the start of term, given their carefree demeanor. Moki half-contemplated joining them, before deciding against it. Her three previous years at Hogwarts had taught her a little something about discipline, and while she didn't usually want to sit still, when she had work to do, she knew how to buckle down and get it done in as little time as was possible to still achieve a good grade. She wasn't a slacker, just an unhappy worker. She looked around, her attention caught by the notice of a fellow Slytherin sitting near the Whomping Willow. I wonder what she's up to, Moki thought. She didn't believe she'd ever been officially introduced to the other girl, but she remembered her name was Kathleen or Katelynn or something. Yeah, that was it, Katelynn. She approached her smilingly - Katelynn appeared to have the same ideas about doing schoolwork as she did - although she looked very absorbed. Moki wondered whether she would mind a little company, and decided to at least give it a shot. Katelynn's spot was nice and quiet, so she could probably get the studying done there in just a little while.

"Hey!" she said with a grin as she neared the rock. Moki had never noticed before, but it was pretty big. "Katelynn, right? I don't think we've ever been introduced, but I'm Slytherin, too, fourth-year, though. Do ya mind a little company? Those first-years are going crazy... and driving me with them." She laughed at her own bad joke. She hoped she wasn't bothering Katelynn. She knew what it was like to be interrupted while studying.
