James got comfortable on the big sofa in the room, rummaging through some of his day's notes before sighing and carelessly tossing them aside. He just couldn't concentrate when his thoughts kept returning to the same stream of situations and sights that he couldn't do a bloody thing about. He had been entirely serious about what he'd written to his mates in his journal. Since the Diagon Alley event, he'd thought more about what they could be doing that wasn't already happening in school. His dad gave him enough insight into the situation within the Ministry that he started to feel uneasy about just being in school and being unable to do anything that would affect the outside world. At least, till now. So, he'd called to his mates and felt them out, hoping that they'd hop onto his idea and help to bring others aboard. After all, the worst thing that would come of his idea would be a small club that met and talked about issues. But the best case scenario? A full-out organisation dedicated to protecting themselves and their loved ones.
Motivation and determination returned to him and he got up, looking around the common room and noting the few students milled around. With a deep breath, he made a mass announcement in as commanding a tone as he was capable:
"YOU LOT! Who's tired of the tripe that went down in Diagon Alley? Who here's worried that it won't end there?!" Feeling the rush of adrenaline, he looked at everyone in turn, hoping to catch a spark in their eyes, and perhaps even a few who would readily come to his call with their concerns.
