I think I used the wrong kind of paper.

There's a wrong kind of paper?? For what, an essay?
orangepip: (= trusting)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-06 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
For making a boat!

Ohh, you're a new Ribbonfin! All right, there's probably a wrong kind of paper for that, but don't worry, you'll get it right the next time! What happened to your boat?

[identity profile] cheerity.insanejournal.com 2016-09-07 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, that sucks. But I bet it was fun to watch until then!

Anyway, hi, I'm Ty! Coppertale senior, best cheer captain in the school. Don't believe what people tell you about Coppertales, we're not THAT bossy.

That's probably a lie

IS THIS THE FACE OF A LIAR, CHRISTOPHER??

ugh don't call me that

And I'm almost certain I've seen you lie before
orangepip: (+ cute)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
For all of two seconds.

Hi Ty! I'm Pippa. I'm really excited to see the cheer routines, I've been hearing a lot about them but we don't have anything like that at Hogwarts. And I won't believe the worst about Coppertale, don't worry! I know all about houses not deserving their reputations.

Oh! I was going to ask the same. What did you use?
orangepip: (= resigned)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-06 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
This really pretty purple origami paper with butterflies on it! It was very easy to fold into a boat, but apparently not very water resistant.

I think I have some photo paper you can try next time. It's all shiny and sealed, so it probably wouldn't absorb water as fast.
orangepip: (+ cute)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
That's really kind of you, thanks! I mean, I'm not sure whether I'm going to be here next year, but if I am I'll definitely try your paper instead.

Sorry, Philippa. I wish I could help you, but I never have any luck with the race either.
orangepip: (= explaining)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-06 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
At least your boat lasted longer than mine!

You didn't fail, you just succeeded in discovering a way that doesn't work.
orangepip: (+ listening)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a really nice way of looking at it!

[identity profile] blinkah.insanejournal.com 2016-09-07 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah I don't really bother much with the race. I watch it, though.
orangepip: (= curious)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, why not? It's fun!

[personal profile] indiefolk 2016-09-07 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, damn, sorry. There's always next year if you stay with us!
orangepip: (= listening)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I suppose so!

[identity profile] evercreep.insanejournal.com 2016-09-07 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
I

How are

Do you remember m

[The end result is just a bunch of incoherent scribbles.]
orangepip: (- mistrustful)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you mocking me? I can't read that.

[identity profile] evercreep.insanejournal.com 2016-09-08 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that was the point. I can't It wasn't worth reading

[...]

Sorry about your terrible boat. Between you and Wolfhart it was a bit of a mess, wasn't it?
orangepip: (- explaining)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Your point was to scribble in my journal?

I  Thanks. Maybe next time you can show us how it should be done.

[identity profile] rosales.insanejournal.com 2016-09-07 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
I really thought I had the right combination this year.
orangepip: (+ explaining)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
You should've asked Gabi for tips!

[personal profile] puphart 2016-09-07 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
At least your paper wasn't disappearing paper. :(
orangepip: (= listening)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
That was so strange! Perhaps your boat sank when no one was watching?

[identity profile] gabiflor.insanejournal.com 2016-09-07 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
No no, it was a good boat! Next time it will work perfectly, you'll see. We can practice together if you want!
orangepip: (+ cute)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I think a good boat should at the very least be able to float! I'm not sure if I'll be here next year, but it'd be fun to give it another go. And you have to be able to defend your crown!

[personal profile] cmdrchloe 2016-09-08 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
For what?
orangepip: (= curious)

[personal profile] orangepip 2016-09-08 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
The boat race! Didn't you take part?
