FEAFR's Beginnings
The time is 6:00, right after dinner at Hogwarts. The weather is a sunny, but not too hot to run around outside comfortably. There isn't a single breeze that stirs today, and the clouds seem to hover over the setting sun.
Ahhh.... here the day was at last. FEAFR's first meeting would take place, and Paisley could hardly contain her excitement.
As she trotted down the stairs and into the common room, she couldn't help but feel enlightened. She already recognized a few of her housemates as FEAFR members, and that wasn't even counting the members in other classes. This is going to work. she told herself as she walked through the portrait hole.
Earlier that morning she had brought a paper bag with her to breakfast. There she had placed a few muffins and napkins, so that FEAFR's members had something to eat. Perhaps it was magic, or perhaps it was just luck, but the muffins had stayed well-preserved the whole day.
Paisley continued on through the halls, wondering if there were any other fellow sewing fanatics in her club. Nobody had mentioned it yet, but then again, it wasn't a common hobby. At least, not that Paisley knew of.
At last she made it out onto the grounds. She stopped near a tree, although it wasn't near the forbidden forest. She wanted to stat well away from there; because there was no need to bring attention to the club during it's first meeting.
She set the muffins down on top of a flat stone, with napkins underneath. It looked sort of like a small table, but she wondered if anyone would want to eat them.
She shrugged. If not, it meant more for her.
Paisley waited there for a few moments, waiting for the students to arrive. She was vaguely aware of the fact that perhaps they weren't supposed to take food from breakfast, but she quickly squashed the thought. It ought to be alright, or the headmaster or head of house would've said something at the beginning of the year.
She sat down on the sloping, grassy hill, gazing out over the setting sun. She had scheduled the meeting so that it was at her favorite time of day, sunset. The very word brought peace over her whole body, filling her up like a balloon. Sunset was the time when the day ended, and everything reset. The day was behind them now. You got to start anew.
Paisley sat there for a few moments, reminiscing about what it would be like when she was older. Would she be a prefect? Or after that, possibly.a teacher? She shook her head. She didn't think she'd like it if she had to stay at Hogwarts longer than necessary. Of course, she loved it here, but she wanted her own house, and her own life.
She wondered if she'd still love the things she did now. Perhaps the sunset wouldn't be her favorite time any more. Perhaps she wouldn't-
That was when the first student arrived. Paisley rose to her feet, getting dizzy as all of the blood rushed from her head.
"Hi there, and welcome to FEAFR. Feel free to help yourself to a muffin."
ReducioWelcome to our first FEAFR meeting! I'm super excited about this and I hope you all are too! You can post in whatever order you'd like, just try to stay on track with your peers.
I checked already, and this is within school rules, so no worries about detention. The curfew is 08:00, so as long as our characters leave before that, we'll be good to go.

Rish was as excited as could be.Interacting with @Paisley Brown
FEAFR was the exact thing she needed, and ever since she’d gotten into Hogwarts she was looking to build strong friendships.
I mean, why else would she have a goal to make a friend from every house?
And that only Slytherin was left?
Rish snapped out of her houghts and walked through the halls, until finally she reached the Lutdoor Club Area. She looked around in awe. She absolutely loved nature—that was why green was her favourite color—and she couldn’t have thought of any place better to have our first meeting. It was outside, but not too close to the Forbidden Forest.
Rish smiled. It was perfect.
And there were so many people!
She practically ran over to where the club was, and she noticed a girl with straight hair sitting down. She seemed to notice me, and so she stood up. The girl smiled. “Hi there, and welcome to FEAFR. Feel free to help yourself to a muffin."
Rish then noticed the muffins on the flat stone. She smiled, appreciating how friendly this girl was.
“Oh, thank you! I would love to have some!” Rish said, reaching down to pick one. Muffins usually didn’t appeal to her, but this one tasted good.
“Wow! Those are amazing!” Rish said exactly what she was thinking. “So since this club is, like, just for talking and making friends, I’m Rishita. But you could call me Rish. What’s your name?”

FEAFR's Beginnings
Seeing the poster for the FEAFR club going to start and, admittedly, Remi was excited. But with him being a first-year and knowing the dress code in the school, he needed to figure out what he had to do as he didn't want to go back to the Gryffindor common room and then go back outside and onto the grounds.
Rather, he did something ingenious. He just wore what he was going to wear the first FEAFR meeting.
A cool graphic tee and some orange shorts underneath, however, all of this would be not in a clear slight expect his sneakers but who was going to stop him at this point. He just finished his dinner and, as most of the student population went to their separate ways.
Remi went outside and started to take off his robes, revealing what he was wearing once he went onto the grounds proper.
Sure, it was a little out there for the first meeting but his father always said dress to impress and, plus, it was warm out and he wanted to feel comfortable. Remi couldn't stand wearing the robes as he felt like he was overheating in the still lingering summer air.
As he noticed two people, one of the girls who appeared to be one of the Gryffindor girls that he's seen around the castle once or twice.
He said, looking at the other two shyly as he wasn't in a club before,"Uh hello!"He gave a weak smile before looking at the muffins and taking one,"First time being in a club so I'm kinda new."He said before realizing,"Mmm, that looks good."He waved at the both of them, before munching."Oh, the name's Remi. Bonsoir."

FEAFR's Beginnings
Melissa honestly didn't know what she signed up for but all she knew was that there was a meeting by the lake after dinner. It seemed like a good idea when she signed up but now, she didn't know anymore. she was just scared that she would embarrass herself or something. Welp, I guess I should commit to what I signed up for- she thought. Then, she walked down the halls to where the meeting was apparently at, the Outdoor Club Area. When she reached the area, she quickly looked around for where the club was and saw two girls and one boy near a tree.
Melissa walked over, not quite sure if they were even from FEAFR and said, "Uh...hi! My name's Melissa." It was awkward. You see, Melissa was never very social and she has never been in a club before so she didn't know how to introduce herself. Why did I even sign up for this? I could be playing with Kato (Melissa's cat) or reading right now...honestly, I could be doing anything other than this! The other's were all eating muffins so Melissa assumed that the girl handing out the muffins was the leader of this club. The ginger took a muffin and waited for the others to start a conversation. No way she would...if she could.~Interacting with @Paisley Brown @Rish Sen @Remi Yao~

“So since this club is, like, just for talking and making friends, I’m Rishita. But you could call me Rish. What’s your name?” asked Rish. Paisley smiled.
"I'm Paisley. It's nice to meet you!" said Paisley, extending her hand out for a shake. She didn't often shake hands, but it seemed appropriate in this instance. In fact, this whole FEAFR thing wasn't really Paisley's style. She had come up with the idea late one night...she was starting to wonder if it was such a good idea...
No. You can't think like that. You've already made a great friend! Well, you know her name. This is good for you. You're going to have fun. she told herself, the voice inside her head surprisingly helpful.
"I'm glad you joined. I didn't expect the club to take off like it did," Paisley explained sincerely.
A boy, seemingly the same age as Paisley, descended down the hill and over to where the meeting was. She watched, her eyes wide. His clothes were surprisingly bright and cheerful, and suddenly Paisley remembered something: she had forgotten to change her clothes. She was still in her Hogwarts robes. She tried to hide her embarrassment as the boy introduced himself.To Paisley's delight, both classmates had taken a muffin so far. Thankfully they didn't look inedible. She relaxed a bit. Perhaps this would work with minimal shenanigans. At least, for now."Uh Hello! First time being in a club so I'm kinda new."Mmm, that looks good. Oh, the name's Remi. Bonsoir."
"Nice to meet you, Remi! I'm Paisley. I hope we get more classma-oh look! Hi there,"
said Paisley. As she spoke, another girl, this one Paisley recognized, walked down the hill and into the meeting place.
"Uh...hi! My name's Melissa." she spoke awkwardly, as if she'd rather be somewhere else. Paisley decided then and there that no one in FEAFR should have to feel awkward. She'd do her best to make sure everyone felt as comfortable as possible. After all, it was Fun Evenings Away From Reality. They shouldn't have to worry about things like that.
"Hi there, Melissa!"
Paisley paused for a few moments.
"Well, as soon as we get a few more down here, we'll be able to start! Did anyone bring any games?" asked Paisley.

Rish’s eyebrows went up in confusion, but it soon turned into a smile. She was smiling way too much today. “No, of course it would! I mean, there aren’t so many clubs where you could just sit and talk. It’s absolutely perfect.”
Rish then heard footsteps, and she turned around.
A boy was behind her, and for some reason she remembered the face, although they’ve never talked, and they’re definitely not in the same House.
Maybe it was when she was looking at the Tables after Sorting. Or maybe she just passed by him one day.
Rish smiled. The boy seemed nice.“Uh hello! First time being in a club so I’m kinda new.”
Rish had the vague idea that Bonsoir meant ‘Good Evening’ in French. He took a muffin, and Rish noticed another girl walking down the hill.“Mmm, that looks good. Oh, the name’s Remi. Bonsoir.
“Nice to meet you, Remi! I'm Paisley. I hope we get more classma-oh look! Hi there," Paisley said before noticing the girl walking down the hill. She looked shy, and was fidgeting nervously.
“Um, hi! My name’s Melissa.” She said.
Rish couldn’t believe her luck. She just made three friends!
“Hi there, Melissa!” Paisley smiled. “Well, as soon as we get a few more down here, we'll be able to start! Did anyone bring any games?"
Wait, were we supposed to bring games?
“Um, no I didn’t...” Rish said awkwardly. “I kinda just thought that we would just be talking.”

Open to interactions!
please force ma bb to socialiseIf Lucia Fox was being honest to herself, there was exactly one reason she had joined FEAFR: Ebony had told her to.
Apparently, the eldest Fox daughter needed to socialise more, and if it took forcing her to join a club created by a First Year, that was what Ebony Fox would do.
Yay.
Looking distinctly grumpy as she walked down to the Outdoor Club dressed in leggings and a top, Lucia first spotted the people - no-one she recognised, but she guessed that was to be expected when most of the club members would be overwhelmed firsties - and then the food.
Ok, if we get free cupcakes maybe it's not that bad.
She was a bit concerned that the buns were set out on a stone - hygiene, people! I don't want food poisoning, even if you do! - but soon saw that between them and the rock there was a bit of fabric like a tablecloth.
Oh.
Right, first things first - snack. Yes, admittedly she had just had her dinner, but still. Sugar should never be ignored.
Keeping this in mind, she made her way over to the stone, not meeting anyone's eyes lest they force her to play a game or something Willow-y like that, and grabbed a bun. Her hand drifted towards another, but she retracted it quickly for fear of forever being known as 'the greedy girl who took two cupcakes'.
She gulped the cake down - mmm.

Yesterday, Logan was walking through the halls and he say a poster on the bulletin board. FEAFR. It promised fun and that was all he needed. He really needed to get out more and actually make an effort to initiate friendship with others.
He was walking to the venue of their first meeting which was at the outdoor club area. He wasn't much for formality so he took off his robes to reveal his red t-shirt and jeans.
It was a social gathering so he expect people to be there and have fun. The only person he recognized was a kid from the boat. He was starting to remember. He was the same kid who jumped in the lake to save his friend and then both got saved by the squid. It was nice to know that they didn't chew him out. Apparently, he had good taste in fashion. He smiled and said,He didn't know the other girls but they definitely weren't Starlee, Jess or Alina. He turned and saw the snacks that were laid out. He reached to grab one, unconscious of what he was doing. He quickly realized and restrained himself with the other hand. His subconscious has a habit of taking over when he gets deep in thought. Like one time, he didn't realize he was walking around the castle until he bumped into someone. He walked up to the tree and leaned against it."Oh, hey Remi.
The less you reveal, the more others wonder

She wasn't going to go, got that? She wasn't going to go. In a moment of insanity, Alina Rosier saw the posting in the Small Hall for this social sort of gathering club and thought it was a good idea. It would get her out of her stupor and pep her up, perk her up, have her be the girl she was last year and the one she would be once she got out of her sadness.
But no. Now that the day of the meeting had come, she thought it was a rather miserable idea. Why go hang out with a bunch of possibily new people and just share too much of yourself with them, give your heart to them, your trust, your self, only to have it taken away when they leave? Everyone always left.
She wasn't going to go. Glancing down at her watch, she saw she was already late. Good. Now she had an excuse not to go. And yet...as she sat there all alone by the tree at the Great Lake she couldn't help but know it wasn't where she belonged. Alina Rosier was a people person and didn't need to dwell in her sadness.
Making her way down the path and over to the Outdoor Club Area, she saw a lot of new faces. This normally would excite her but right now it made her doubt if this really was the right thing. Back and forth, back and forth, she needed to stop going back and forth. She closed her eyes realizing that she didn't need to be there when she saw a familiar face in the distance. There in a casual red tshirt and jeans was Logan and the sight of him did make her smile. He already was standing next to another boy but she decided to approach slowly so not to interrupt. She came over to his side and just lightly and playfully bumped her him up against his and smiled to him.
Let your confidence shine, pretty girl.

Today was the first meeting of the new club called Fun Evenings Away From Reality aka FEAFR. Akari and Jess had seen the flyers around school and had both taken an interest in it and decided to go to it together.
The meeting was said to take place around 6:00 so a few minutes before Akari waited for Jess in front of the great hall. Once Jess had arrived and the two had exchanged hellos and such, they made their way outside to the area that they were informed that the meeting will be held.
Akari squinted in the distance and gestured to the slop where she noticed a small set up and gathering of people. "That ought to be them" She exclaimed to Jess and moved more towards that direction.
When they were close enough Akari's eyes skimmed the area looking at all the students who she assumed to be other members of the club and the treats that were arranged in a lovely fashion before spotting Paisley.
Her face lit up slightly at seeing her; a familiar face.
"Paisley! Over here! She called out while giving her a small wave. She hoped she wasn't interrupting a conversation... otherwise, that would be well... a little awkward. At first, it didn't cross her mind that perhaps Jess and Paisley hadn't met each other yet so when it finally did she quickly spoke up to introduce them to each other. "Oh er, I don't know if you guys have met before, but anyhow if you haven't Jess this is Paisley, and Paisley this is Jess"
