Magnus was excited to see Aria again, as it was getting close to the end of the term and she would be his official sister by then. He was less afraid of Dax as well, so that made him also happy. "'Ey, Peng right?" He said as the girl he sort-of met the last session arrived. "Nice to met you. Eh, don't worry 'bout it, ain't many that liked the acromantulas anyway." She handed him an orange cheesecake and he smiled saying, "fanks, mind if I share it? Food's best shared ain't it?" He set it on the heavily laden table for everyone to eat.

"No they aren't to everyones liking... Will you be the club captain next term?" Peng asked hopefully, "you're very popular with everyone! Apparently the other classes have been dramatically excellent"

Peng watched as other members of the club tucked into her orange cheesecake! Smiling she thought "if anyone gets sick, I'll blame the muggles and their strange recipes!"

Peng's pet rabbit suddenly appeared and with that Peng excused herself and went to sit by the bonfire with her bun ❤️!

Millie was walking into the dormitory after spending the past several hours in the library working on her Ancient Studies project. It was almost finished but she would get finish it later. She saw the owl waiting for her and she took the note from it's leg. "Thanks" she said and reached into her trunk and offered it a couple of owl treats she kept as payments.

Millie opened the note and read it. "Oh a bonfire. Well, mum always says 'never go empty handed" she thought to herself. "I'll guess I'll go make some chocolate chunk cookies before bed." Millie went down to the kitchens and made two batches of cookies. One for the club, the other for the Hufflepuff common room. When they were finally finished, she put a charm on them to keep them fresh and took them back and finally called it a night.

She ate a small dinner and went back to the common room to find the plate she left for her friends empty with a note thanking her. She found Cleo sleeping on her bed and said, "Come on, we're going to the meeting. Don't worry, there won't be any spiders." Then she thought to herself, "Err, I better bring that project down with me so I can finish it."

She took the hefty plate of cookies down to the bonfire. Several people had already arrived. "Hey everyone, I brought cookies. I hope that's okay."

anyone else (ooc - yeah, I just made a really long post. It's a boring Friday night at home)

Peng seen a girl handing out cookies by the bonfire, she recognised the girl from her brief second in the club's normal room.

"Hi, Milliie right? My name is Peng! May I have one of your cookies?" Peng asked, "they look delicious!" Mushroom, Peng's rabbit, was standing on her hind legs trying to get closer to the cookies Millie had. Laughing and gesturing to Mushroom, Peng added "Could this little one also have a cookie please?"

Sam eyed the sweets on the heavily laden table. "Ooh chesecake, Yum! That looks delicious, and cookies too. I brought some hot-dogs to roast over the fire. Got a bunch of fireproof gloves so we can handle the salamanders, an' I brought a couple of ashwinder eggs for the bonfire as well.

"Hi Peng, it's nice to meet you. Of course, help yourself. They're my mom's recipe. She runs her own bakery in London." She bent down and handed a smaller cookie to Mushroom with an open palm. "She's really pretty. She looks like Cleo in rabbit form" Millie said as she pointed to her tortoiseshell cat.

"Hey Sam. I love hot dogs over a bonfire. That's when they are the best. Is it weird I like them slightly burnt?"

"nof ut ull" Sam mumbled around a mouthful of cheesecake. Then, swallowing, she added more politely, "In fact I don't think you can legally call it a good hot-dog if it doesn't have at least a bit of char."
She began unfolding what looked like a take-out box, except that it kept unfolding to several times it's original size, then opened it to reveal two compartments with chilled hot-dogs and steamy hot buns. A small clear tube of bright red eggs seemed to be providing all the heat of the warm side.

"Dunno," Magnus said, "Me dad's got loads of connections, but not sure mum will agree with another term let alone the adults." He very much doubted her other comments but kept his doubts to himself. She wandered off to the bonfire with her pet rabbit. He waved at Millie. Then he happily cooked himself a hotdog and wolfed down four of them before he drank deeply from his butterbeer. He tried to give Dixie some hotdog but she didn't seem interested, Kippers however was happy to take some. He gave Sam with a quizzical look before trying the chilli dog which he ate slower. "Hmm, its good. I thought everyone would enjoy a bonfire. When I lived at the orphange we 'ad 'em all the time, particularly 'round the 'olidays."

Aria looked at the chocolate chunk cookies that Millie () had made and couldn't resist grabbing one and munching on it in pure joy. "Thank you for the cookies," Aria said while cleaning crumbs from her fingers. "I love cookies, they are truly my weakness." Aria smiled and stepped closer to the warm bonfire. She looked around at everyone as they enjoyed the atmosphere and inwardly felt a strange sensation. She focused on the feeling and realized that it was a feeling of Oneness and peace. Looking over at Magnus () she realized that this feeling could last a lot longer than one night, as soon she would have a real family and he would be her brother. Aria smiled and relaxed with Dax and let the feeling completely wash over her senses, trying to create a strong memory of the feeling.

"Oh good. My mom thinks it weird but she thinks all burnt food is bad" she told Sam. Millie waved to Magnus as she speared a hot dog on a pointed stick and roasted it until it was slightly burnt. "Yum!" as she quickly ate it. She made another and ate 3/4 of it and offered the rest to Cleo, who like a fat cat, ate it all. "You like burnt hot dogs too?" She got some butterbeer and drank slowly, enjoying every drop of it.

She heard Aria thank her for the cookies. "You're welcome. Help yourself".

" Omg Cleo is beautiful! Can I pet her :3? I asked Millie while eating the cookies she brought! "These are amazing! Your mum's bakery must be incredibly popular!"

While talking to Millie about our tortoiseshell animals I noticed a student, who I think is called Sam, swallow an entire slice of cheesecake :D! This made me laugh out loud and be quite proud! There's no compliment about your cooking better than someone devouring it :)! "Hi, I'm Peng :)! May I grab a charred hot dog please?" I asked Sam :)!

I wish there was a spell for making fat disappear as I think by the time I'm finished sampling everyone's food I'll have to be rolled home!

"Of course you may. And thank you. It really is. She serves both muggle and magical goods but you need to know the code word to get the magical goods. It keeps muggles from learning about them".

everyone seemed to be having a good time and Magnus was relaxed as he sat beside his soon to be sister and petted his mini llama.

Once Millie had a full belly and a content kitty, and pulled out her Ancient Studies project to finish it. They had been learning hieroglyphics this term and the significance behind Ancient Egyptian Wizards and Witches. She was glad to be almost finished the project for this term. She was starting to stress over exams.

"Is everyone ready for exams?" she asked a loud. "I know I'm not. I have 11 and I'm starting to get stressed".

"Don't worry Millie, you'll do great I bet" I replied to Millie's question. "11 exams is daunting but as long as you study hard you'll pass them all no problem!"

With that I decided I should take my own advice and go study for the upcoming exams. "Right guys, I'm going to head back to the dorms, thank you for a great night! Enjoy the rest of your evening" I said to everyone before picking Mushroom up and heading back.

"Ready as I can be, I guess," he said noncommittally. "That sounds brutal, though." He waved to Peng saying, "later," as she headed off.

"I'm sure you'll do great too! See you later. It was nice seeing you." She waved goodbye to Peng. "It's really stressful" she told Magnus.

((OOC: okay, As Mary said in the Announcement board, we are allowed to run the 3rd term clubs until the new term starts at the end of July. This would give us enough time to cover another 2 creatures at least. So guys, I need to know if you all want to do this? If enough people say yes, then I'll happily get an animal ready and post it as soon as possible. Please go ahead and post here.))

(( I'm...vaguely around? Got various things going on, but I'm certainly keeping an eye on this thread.))

(( is that a yes or maybe? lol I think it'll be less intense as the other sessions because several of us are in ws4. ))
