Luke looked from his eggs, glanced around the Great Hall, and raised an eyebrow. It wasn't like everyone and their mothers to be sad and gloomy -well, except for the Slytherins who seemed to be all smirking or arrogant like normal- especially when the bulk of tests and reports were finished. Sure, the seventh years had NEWTs coming up in June and the fifth years had their OWLs, and sure, the seventh years would all graduate (hopefully) and leave Hogwarts forever, but that wasn't something to be depressed about, right? Right! So, Luke decided to do something about it, and he set his fork down. Well, right after he took one last bite of potatoes and eggs and a bacon strip for the road.

What did everyone need? Why, a song of course! But what kind of song? Luke pondered that for a moment. He really couldn't sing "Hey, Jude" especially since there was only ONE Jude (and he didn't forget that!) and really wouldn't apply to the entire hall. And then he came up with an idea - a brilliant one, so he thought - and decided to launch into it. It was just the time to do it!

"You say yes, I say no," he started the Beatles song, jumping out of his seat and throwing his arm around one of his fellow Gryffindors, before going on to the next person with each line. "You say stop, and I say go, go, go. Oh no." He flicked off the bit of spinach from someone's plate and continued down the line.

"You say goodbye and I say hello, hello, hello." He grinned happily and waved to everyone, even if they gave him the weirdest looking expression ever. "I don't know why you say goodbye when I say hello, hello, hello."

Mornings were the worst part about living at Hogwarts. Mainly because there was always a group of people that were all too awake in the early hours. It was the part of breakfast that also made Balthazar want to skip it. It was bad enough that he was not a fan of getting up early, or having to get changed early- or any part of a morning in general. When people were chipper around him, it caused the already cranky Slytherin to want to shove a goblet down someone's throat.

Similar to the thoughts poking at the back of his mind as he watched Luke stand up with narrowed eyes. His sudden display of joyful singing was no morning bird's song to say the least. Normally this would have been fun to watch but the song and Luke's voice was going right through the seventh year as he looked down at his goblet of pumpkin juice. Thoughts on chucking it across the room at the Gryffindor table started turning in his mind but he opted to just drink it. Maybe someone else will take the other boy down before he finished his drink.

After the first sip the song was still being shouted and B gave a sigh. Great, my ears will be bleeding by the end of this... And then the rest of the goblet was drained. A small twitch came from the corner of his lips. Maybe it wasn't so bad...

Addison, in a similar respect, wasn't a morning person either. Sure, he would force his team to practice Quidditch in the mornings if it was feasible, but he didn't care for the break of dawn or any of the morning highlights as well. And now that the Slytherins practically owned the Quidditch cup, unless the Gryffindors or Ravenclaws managed to score over 600 points to take the lead, practice was all but obsolete. Rich might complain a little - Addison had never heard if he was accepted into a professional Quidditch team yet - but he wasn't going to subject the team to more practice when they were done.

When Luke started his song and dance routine, Addison raised an eyebrow for a moment before continuing his breakfast. It had been a while since the Gryffindor did something as obnoxious as this, but he figured someone would shut him up soon, and so he just threw a look over to Balthazar and their roommates.

"At least, he's not singing that horrible song about the genie," Addison remarked, reaching for a roll.

As the singing progressed the usual amount of annoyance seemed to lessen. Though he was still wondering if a goblet would fit down Luke's throat he was no longer about to go over and find out first hand. Instead his attention was directed to the food in front of him like it was going to make it all go away. Or make Luke go away. Both seemed like a good idea. As he picked up a few pieces of toast Addison's glance caught the boy's attention. Dropping his hand, Balthazar looked at his captain, wondering if he had missed a morning practice or something.

At the comment, B's eyes narrowed slightly in confusion. Song about a genie? What was in Addison's cigarettes?

“I have no clue what the hell you are talking about but I am going to agree,” he responded with the confusion going through his voice.

Hearing a conversation growing too loud down the table, the boy picked up a napkin and began balling it up tightly.

“Are you talking about that friend like me or... whatever the hell it was- I'm sure he'd have a full tabletop dance for that one.”

The last word became emphasized as he chucked the balled up napkin at the group, not caring if he hit his mark.

Thea stared quietly into her breakfast plate, half-listening as her dorm-mates chatted and nodding at the proper moments. Contrary to popular belief- Thea didn't mind mornings. They were quiet, and while her classmates were busy stuffing their faces and sleepily finishing off last minute homework, Thea could appreciate a few moments to herself- to think, or go through whatever book she was reading at the time. Except... what in Merlin's name was Spencer doing? Thea watched with a mixture of curiosity and annoyance as the older boy pranced around the Great Hall, singing loudly. Perhaps he'd lost a bet? Thea couldn't imagine another reason for doing something so incredibly inane, but then again, he was a Gryffindor.

She narrowed her eyes and brought her attention back to her own table as a crumpled up napkin came flying dangerously close to her pumpkin juice. She poked it away, disgusted, before looking over to where Balthazar was sitting.

"Do you think you might be able to keep a better grip on your napkins, Bletchley? You're disrupting the show."

Thea response brought a grin to the boy's face as Balthazar happily turned his attention from Luke. With eyebrows slightly raised the grin was more amused than anything as his head tilted slightly to the side.

"Sorry, Theadora. Didn't know you were enjoying this. Want me to call him over- I'm sure he'd love a duet."

The grin still there, Balthazar looked back at his quidditch captain, not worried Thea was planning on responding, he'd hear her- unless their personal balladier decided to find a seat on his lap. Judging by his performance it may not make him seem more like a loon than he was now. It also would give B a reason to end this performance quickly.

"How long is that song?" he asked to anyone willing to answer.

No one better shout encore.

Had Balthazar actually missed a practice, Addison wouldn't have had any problems telling him so, even if Quidditch wasn't a seemingly high priority in their house - not as big as it was in the Gryffindor or Hufflepuff houses. It was a matter of pride, after all, but now it was basically done with. Their last match was too easy, in his opinion, but he hoped the last two teams wouldn't put their heads together and come up with a way to steal the cup away from them.

"Think yourself fortunate then," Addison replied. He only wished he could have missed Spencer's song a few months ago himself.

He merely looked amused at the napkin being thrown, and shrugged at the question posed afterwards. "No idea... but I hope Foster doesn't join in," he said, looking around to see if anyone had a better idea of muggle music.
