[Warded to Ribbonfin]

Hello.

I understand I'm not [...] the most personable member of our house. However, I've improved somewhat over the years, or so I like to think. It's been in large part thanks to all of you.

I won't linger on sentimentality for too long, but I do have a favour to ask if you see fit to help me. I see that Ribbonfin has no representation in running for for Prom Prince, but [...] I personally have a great deal of investment in Micah winning. If any of you are at a loss for who to vote for in that category, I'd appreciate you voting for him.

I'll stop being sentimental. This is embarrassing.

[Warded to Ari and Jade]

I need to trick Doyle into dating the little Zabinsky. I'm meddling, don't try to talk me out of it.

Not for his benefit, I hope?

Slytherkids

[novelling]

It wouldn't be, or he'd have picked some other girl.

Slytherkids

[evercreep]

She's harmless, trusting and smitten with Doyle. It's all I need her to be.

Slytherkids

[novelling]

She's forgettable, too. Does he like her?

Slytherkids

[odder]

I'd hoped so. But if they legitimately fall in love, they'll have to break up. He doesn't get the last word.

Slytherkids

[evercreep]

Anything but. I need to make him less attractive to Ramon because, frankly, I can't stand him. And there are few things Ramon would hate more than an obnoxious older brother breathing down the neck of his paramour.

Slytherkids

[odder]

Perfect. I hate him. So really, only both Zabinskys need to believe he's dating, or at least interested. That seems simple enough.

Slytherkids

[evercreep]

Precisely.

If there's an anonymous post on the horizon, that might be a good opportunity to spread rumors. We need to boost her confidence so that she asks him out. He certainly won't make a move, and if she's heartbroken because he rejects her that's nearly as good.

Slytherkids

[novelling]

Well, we agree on that. Do you have a plan?

Slytherkids

[evercreep]

Make snogging Doyle feel like a chore, then point Ramon in the direction of someone low-maintenance but more in his league. Jonah Pitchford is my current choice.

[...] You're a good guy, Calvin. Consider it done.

Least I can do for all the time you spent trying to make a decent Beater out of me.

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

That's going a bit far, but thank you.

You've improved quickly. If we had one more year, then... who knows what would happen.

Ribbonfin

[sandyowsley]

I'll stand by it anyway.

Thanks, Calvin. It was a great experience regardless. At least you get to keep JD another year!

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

You're too generous.

True. I think she'll make first string next year. Or rather, she will if I have a say in it.

Ribbonfin

[colemoss]

i'll vote for micah. [...] but you probably knew that.

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

I know. But I'm grateful all the same.

Ribbonfin

[colemoss]

oh. you're welcome. then.

[...]

[Calvin]

who do you think you'll vote for in the other categories?? i don't know most of these people very well apart from drawing them. and that doesn't help. except for the duchess and the princess.

Cole/Calvin

[evercreep]

Gwen for Queen, Webster for King, Hazel for Princess, Micah for Prince, Toby for Duke, Dinah for Duchess.

Don't feel obligated to vote how I did.

Ribbonfin

[gwenniepop]

I KNOW that is not my best friend in the WORLD talking himself down like that. Our Beater extraordinaire, who messed up a pretty face the other day but that I've completely forgiven already.

I already voted for Micah so this was just for entertainment.

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

So you've just taken this opportunity to hassle me? Typical Gwen. Heartless and cruel. I broke that pretty face in your name, and even apologised afterwards.

Do you want me to vote for Ayers or Knox?

Ribbonfin

[gwenniepop]

I am indeed terrible in so many ways. And you did not need to break the prettiness for me. Did you apologize? Wow.

You cannot ask me that question.

[Calvin]

Do you want me to get hexed by Ursula?

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

He commended me on my strike, I apologised for the exact location. I'm a gentleman.

Fine, fine.

[Gwen]

The lot of you seniors are too close. She shouldn't judge you asking me to vote for your boyfriend instead of the Head Boy. Besides, Ayers hardly acknowledges my existence, even after Stoker beat the shite out of me. No judgement, I'm sure he's busy, but I don't owe him any Ribbonfin solidarity.

Ribbonfin

[sochill]

For you, of course.

[Calvin]

You've gotten so sappy.

Ribbonfin

[evercreep]

You're a good mate.

[Ramon]

Showing some sincerity can be beneficial from time to time.

Ribbonfin

[sochill]

I try.

[Calvin]

It'll definitely pluck at the heartstrings of the more classic Ribbonfins.
