Hogsmeade Weekend!
"I'm keeping an eye on you!" Professor McGonagall shouted at a group of mischievious looking Gryffindors. Always her Gryffindors. What the woman would do for one group of well-behaved young men. Was that so hard to ask for?

Minerva really hated Hogsmeade weekend. Instead of being excited for their studies, getting an education and becoming proper young wizards and witches, all these students wanted to do was snog at Madam Puddifoot's or buy some tricks at Zonko's. And she, just like every year, had to play chaperon. With a great big sigh, Minerva dropped down into a sit beside Filius, and across from Pomona. Those two always managed to have a splendid time on the weekends, and eying the poorly conceived bottle of firewhisky under Filius' cloak, Minerva now understood why.

"I do hope you intend on sharing some of that with your Gryffindor counterpart, Filius," she said snootily, waving her glass toward the Charms professor.

OOC: OKAY, this is meant to just be a general post---any time/year could take place in the comments, the common theme is just HOGSMEADE WEEKEND. So...the person who starts the thread would put MONTH, YEAR. Weekends are like...third weekend of each month? So have fun :)

Emmet! Winter of '76

It was always good to start the year off with a new boyfriend. Bianca had kept her eye on Emmet Belby for a while, making up his back story in her mind as she watched him get teased and pushed around by his roommates. Of course all of the Slytherin girls fawned over Evan and Caradoc, but Bianca liked watching Emmet. If he was able stay around with those two loud, rather frustrating and annoying boys, then he must have the patience of a saint and Bianca had always had a thing for the good boys.

She liked making them do not so good things.

Even though it was snowing, Bianca had refused to put on a hat because that would mean her hair would get flat and disgusting. She could be the image of winter wonderland perfection in her new cloak and boots. Emmet definitely had the prettiest girlfriend out of the boys in his year, that was for sure. Evan had just broken it off with that wench, Matilda, and Caradoc had just ruined his engagement to Mackenzie. Bianca enjoyed the idea of her boyfriend being the only one with a girl.

"What would you like to do for lunch?" Bianca said, holding onto Emmet's hand with both of hers. She would let him think he had a big choice in the matter.

Being picked to be someone's boyfriend - no not picked, claimed as a boyfriend - over his roommates gave Emmet a reason to be smug. He had a girlfriend, a rather cute one at that and now he didn't have to go to Hogsmeade alone and follow his friends around or be on the look out for Mackenzie. Of course, he was still in some sense hoping to see her, but it was not a game to go looking for her. And it wasn't just because Bianca wouldn't let go of his hand or out of her sight. Emmet didn't mind pretending to fawn over her, here he was a halfblood with a classy pureblood girl dragging him all over. Maybe Caradoc would call him whipped, but Emmet didn't mind, it wasn't in his nature to put up much of a fuss.

He gave Bianca a confused look, she always asked him what he wanted to do and it didn't bother him but they always ended up doing what she wanted. Plus there weren't a lot of options in Hogsmeade. Maybe she was looking for him to preempt her thoughts and suggest something she might like. It was probably a test, lots of things were tests in Slytherin, the way you talked and the way you acted and the way you answered questions, even if they seemed inconsequential. Glancing around, Emmet spotted the one place that no boy in his right mind would suggest. But girls liked it right? "Er, Puddifoot's?" he said, as if venturing a guess to what was on her mind.

She smiled up at Emmet with surprise; he'd actually suggested the tea shop? Bianca of course loved going to Puddifoot's because you cannot help but feel romantic and lovely with all the frills and the pink, but she wasn't dumb. There was not a boy attending Hogwarts that would go there on their own free will. Any bloke who stepped into the place was being tugged in there by a girl, and Bianca was happy with just the offer.

"Ooh, I won't do that to you," she cooed, pushing up to kiss him quickly. Emmet was sweet, even though he was a bit quiet for her taste. It did make it easier to talk about her latest news and gossip, however, so maybe she shouldn't complain. Bianca kept her hands clamped over his and let out a breath as she thought about what they should do. "We could just get something at the Three Broomsticks."

Her eyes lit up as a thought appeared hit her; they had plenty of time to spare before they had to get lunch, "We should visit that odds and ends shop by Zonko's," she offered, "Last time I was there I saw a few old instruments, maybe you could find something."
