Who: Stanley and Megan When:The Night of the Ball What: Hide and Seek Where: Hogwarts Castle Open
Stan approached the grounds of Hogwarts with a number of other alumni. He vaguely recognized some of their faces, but felt too apprehensive to talk to any of them. No one stopped to talk to him, and he told himself that was for the best.
As he stepped into the castle, Stan stepped out of the main traffic and over to a wall. Then he reached into an inner pocket of his dress robe and pulled out the gift Megan had sent him, weeks back. The tiny facsimile of an insect made soft sounds of movement as it was activated by his touch, and he could see tiny bits of metal moving inside of it. He held it close to his lips and whispered "Megan Jones." He next took out his wand and tapped the bug while whispering "Invenio."
He'd tied a piece of thread around one of its legs back home, and he held on to the thread tightly as it took off to find his date for the evening. Or, at least, what he hoped was his date. He still wasn't entirely sure what it was that Megan had been talking about in her owl and had a suspicion that it wasn't exactly good, but she'd still wanted to play their game, so here he was. And if he looked the fool, being dragged about the castle by a beetle on a leash... well, so be it. It was worth it for Megan.
