Re: Dawn of the Ashen Forest (reserved for Quinn & Nixa)

"I'd like that. I'm often hesitant to show my creative writing to other people, but it would be nice to get some honest feedback, and I'd be happy to reciprocate," Quinn said, apparently quite receptive to the idea. "Heh. Maybe I'll write a story about Ralph. I could make up some sil...

Re: Dawn of the Ashen Forest (reserved for Quinn & Nixa)

"An aspiring writer, at least," Quinn replied. "I'm not sure that what I produce is all that great. The school newspaper hasn't fired me yet though, so there's that. It would be fun to show each other what we've written though." She had to smile at Nixa's optimism that maybe Qui...

"Oh, you write? That's awesome! I write as well...mostly poetry and songs, articles for the Hogwarts Times, and the occasional short story. I sing and dance too. Frequently I find that something can be of intense interest one week, and of no importance the next. Maybe I'm just scatter-brained ...

"Do you have any interests outside of Quidditch and being part of the orchestra?" , Quinn asked. She could relate to Nixa's love of Quidditch, of course, though she had sufficient other interests that she felt she could accept not being able to play should the situation arise. "Yeah,...

Re: Dawn of the Ashen Forest (reserved for Quinn & Nixa)

"I expect the nurse will have your ankle fixed pretty quickly. As backwards as the magical world seems at times, at least magic works a lot faster than muggle doctors and medicine, and usually without side-effects." Quinn let out a snort at the 'without brooms' bit. "Of course withou...

"Muggles don't have potions exactly, but they do have medications, that can come in either liquid or pill form. They can either relieve symptoms, or sometimes cure an illness completely. But the more powerful medications always have side-effects you have to watch out for, and not everybody res...

Re: A Breath of Fresh Air [Open to All]

Quinn didn't want to risk hitting the rocks behind the waterfall, so her approach for this ring was to decelerate as she got close, only going through the ring at the best speed she felt she could safely get away with, or at least not break her neck. In the end, she only got a little wet in the proc...

Re: A Breath of Fresh Air [Open to All]

This was very different from a Quidditch game, Quinn realized. In a game, she was always aware of the Quaffle's exact position. But the raven that was setting up this course was too small and too far away to track, especially while they had to keep their focus on one hoop at a time. She did not spot...

Re: A Breath of Fresh Air [Open to All]

Two butterbeers was a safe wager, well within the budget of the average sixth-year, Quinn decided. Even her own very limited budget. "You're on!" , she called back to Laguna, confident enough in her well-honed flying skills that she wouldn't come in last place. Spotting the next waypoint a...

Re: The Start of An Adventure

It had started as an ordinary summer like any other. School had let out, and Quinn had spent her time playing soccer, taking music lessons, having sleepovers, and spending time in the company of friends, as ten-year-olds do. Then, on August 14, a week prior to her 11th birthday, an owl landed on the...

As Quinn wiped her tears away with her sleeve, a faint yelp broke the pervasive silence. Alarmed, she turned her broom around and darted off in the direction of the sound, flying low. Not long after, she spotted a girl on the ground at the base of a hill near the edge of the forest. She veered towar...

Platonic: Quinn's a quirky, extroverted, adventurous, open-minded sort of character who's usually among the first to stand up to defend other people. Maybe you're like-minded? Or one of the people she defended? She pretty much ignores house boundaries when she's not in a Quidditch game, so don't cou...
