A ball query TAG: Any girl by Mortimer

Mortimer fluffed his feathers out importantly as he had four scrolls of parchment attached to him. He preened one of his dark feathers as he waited for his master to tell him where to go. He was his master’s favorite pet, he was sure, as his master hated owls, had only one other raven which he left at home, and a puffskein which he hardly paid attention to except to cuddle it every so often. But Mortimer was entrusted with the delivery of his master’s letters.

“Give these to the first girl you see in each house,” Said his master. Mortimer cawed once to let him know he understood and took off.


Delivered to the first girl he saw in each house was an identical scroll of parchment.

Dear Lucky recipient,

You are hereby asked to go to the ball with me, Josiah James Ashwood. Why go with me? Well I am a very kind and caring person, I have red hair, the ladies have told me I look great, I’m a pureblood (but not a snob, really!) and I’m a jokester. I’m always ready to lighten the mood. I’m from Teppenpaw. Oh and I’m free, without any date, ready for any girl who wants to say yes to this! Just send me an owl. (Oh and if you are taken, can you pass this note to a non taken girl? Please?) You’re beautiful

Josiah Ashwood.


Messages delivered, Mortimer flew to the owlery to catch up on the avian gossip.\n

I am disgusted TAG: Anyone by Alexis Ashwood

OOC: The TAG is just to let anyone know that the letter and thread is still open for someone

BIC:

So Alexis still didn't have a date for the ball, and it was driving her mad. It wouldn't have bothered her that much if she hadn't found out that Talitha, the most irritating girl in the world, had found one. How unfair! She had no idea what to do anymore, except just skip it all together.

She had decided to just find a good book and forget about it. In fact, she was reading in the common room at the moment. Her golden brown eyes couldn't pull away from the book. The most amazing thing was...it was written by a muggle! She never thought she'd find something she'd like by a filthy muggle.

The book was called One of those Hideous Books where the Mother Dies. It was pretty funny. The main character was quite sarcastic, and the book was written in poetry form. Alexis liked poetry a lot. When she reached the halfway mark in her book, an owl landed on her lap. She looked up to find her cousin's owl, Mortimer.

"What are you doing here?" she asked, sounding annoyed as she flipped her long red hair back. "You must have the wrong person, Joey doesn't want to talk to a snob like me." She rolled her eyes as she opened the parchment.

And quickly burst into laughter.

"What is this?!" she cried as Mortimer flew away. "This is pathetic!" Her laughing grew louder, and she placed a hand over her mouth. She had to stop laughing soon, or else the very unattractive snorting would start. She didn't want that. She clutched her side and breathed deeply. Once she calmed down, her eyes were dancing evily. This was a perfect way to upset that mudblood. Apparantly she and Chrysi, according to her favorite cousin, had gotten into some sort of trouble. This letter would be the perfect revenge. Copying down the letter, she sent her own owl out to RMI. Then she read the letter again and found herself in another bout of laughter.

Alexis noticed that someone was approaching her and she held out the letter. "You want to read this?" she said through her laughter, eyes swimming with tears. "It's probably the most hilarious thing in the world!"
