Sup lovers, brothers and character mothers! Just for a quick plotly FYI of things that are happening but won't have a chance to be scened.

Because Raisa and I are cruel wicked mean mummies awesome and Hayley is also agreeable to boot, we're torturing Ros. Just a little.

You may have noticed Dani gabbing about her bitchin Christmas ring from everyone's favourite head boy. She can press it against someone (third years, brothers) and give them a mild shock with the right words. In actuality, this was completely platonic and, I believe, delivered by owl. No soft-focus lenz, no snowflakes caressing flushed cheeks, no M7RC playing oh-so-romantically in the background. Ros, however, is reading things into the whole situation (namely the significance of the brooch she receieved as opposed to Dani's ring) so we decided to give her a few more things to read.

To this end, Dani was sitting in MCR before class admiring the ring (because YAY tazer) which isn't helping Ros any in believing it's simply a platonic gift. Then in the prefect meeting yesterday she made a point to sit next to Jerry and thank him for it, Ros being too busy stewing to notice the conversation remained as friendly small talk.
Dani and Jerry are both completely oblivious to her ~inner turmoil and have no romantic interst in each other.

Ladyfriends of Ros if you saw any of this, have at it! I'm not sure who elae this is relevant to but it makes me laugh and I'm proud of doing html stuff on le train so you have to read it.

NOTE: GUYS, PLEASE DON'T LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG WITH THE ~RATIONAL EXPLANATIONS AS WE WANT THE LULZ TO RUN THEIR COURSE. THANKS EVER SO.

The end. Love Jane (and co-conspirators Raisa and Hayley)

As a general FYI, following Frank's departure the mods asked me if I would be all right with having Jeremiah as the Head Boy. Since he was frantically gesturing for attention in my head and making "no no no!" type faces, I naturally said yes. So here he is!

We've also decided to assume that he's had this role since the start of the year, except unlike Rosalind, he was actually a prefect for the two years prior to landing the top job. But yes, haters, feel free to gripe at some point that not only do the Slytherins get the Quidditch captain, both head prefects are from there too! If anyone wants to do a backdated log reacting to his appointment, I'd be up for that, either friends who think it's a riot, established troublemakers who want to test the new guard, or jealous colleagues who wanted the job.

He'll try to behave in much the same way that he did as a prefect, as he reasons that's what got him the nod in the first place, although with the increased status his nice and comfortable medium as a senior-prefect-who-was-not-the-Head-Boy has been taken away from him. But when it comes down to it, he doesn't have any trouble delegating, giving you detentions, or telling you things you don't want to hear. Prefects, he'll also be trying to establish a patrol roster for next term, if that's cool with the mods.

OOCly I've also created a drop box for him, so if there's a journal thread that you want brought to his attention or something that happened off the journals, you can leave him a note there! Comments will be screened, and mwuhahaha-ed over by me. ;)
