He crumpled on the wall, controlling his breathing.
How are you going to lead a house if you literally are dying?
He listened to the murmur of the crowd outside the door and calmly walked out.
"Alright guys, go back to your dorm, I have to set... boundaries with Ayran."
Atticus pulled Ayran into his dorm and handed him a thick notebook.
"All those phrases in there, don't say them in front of me. Just... don't. Please"

She tuned the violin for a couple minutes, until she was sure that the violin was in tune. She slowly lifted her arm, holding the bow, over the strings, and played a single note. Then another. A string of notes started blending in, making a song. A ballad, hymn, a song in that style. Slow and dark, dramatic and mysterious. A song that Wednesday Addams would approve of.
The song went on for a couple minutes, and during those couple minutes, the other houses were having their fancy inspirational speeches, and which one had a couple grammar mistakes. But this song, ballad, hymn, whatever, it would be the replacement of an inspirational speech, as they were all aspiring musicians, whom all understood the musical language of drama. The song wove its way into the musical part of their brain, where they learned of the darkness and tragedy of life.
When Kaori finished the song, the room went silent.

His minds was full of questions marks, but before he could say a thing, a think notebook was shoves against his chest.
"All those phrases in there, don't say them in front of me. Just... don't. Please"
Ayran looked at Atticus before, lowering his head, and slowly flipped through the notebook.
The first page: Victorious
His fingertips paused against the word, no wonder Atticus left in the hurry earlier, just because of this word... Ayran flipped to the next page before his mind can make up some crazy theory. He wanted to look at all of the phrases before making any guesses, that was how he always was.
Look at the whole picture, then details, before making a conclusion.
Drunk
Ayran narrows his eyes.
Butterfly
Perhaps, is it related to his power, Ayran mused.
Would you love me if I was dead?
Or was it because of his lover?
Ayran started to lose interest, he didn't care, nor did he want to learn of the others sob story. It wasn't his job to either. He was here so that he can graduate and get a well-earned job, not to be a therapist.
Ayran didn't bother flipping to the last page, before shoving the notebook back at Atticus, and faked his usual smile.
"..I understand now, sorry for earlier Atticus, I can make them stop if you want?" Ayran believed that he looked apologetic enough, or at least he hoped. He didn't notice that he changed his address for Atticus, and instead of the endearing nicknames, it changed back to full names.
As soon as she teleported to her, she was automatically impressed at her violin playing skills

Atticus shoved Ayran out of the room and left himself.
Damn Att, you really want to get in trouble, do you?
Atticus strode into the {blue and green} room.
"Hello Jack, hello Kendo. A few things. I no longer have been sorted into a useless house. I only just have a riled up house that I hope won't screw things up this year."
He smiled a thin smile. "I hope this won't make for a boring year."
He waved his hand as he walked out, colors bursting from his fingertips and dissolving in the air.
But if her house wanted to fight for the title this year, she would help them. Top of the class, best on the court, smartest, fastest, strongest. She thought it was what she had wanted. Now all the eighth years had decided to finally wake up this year.
Fools.
She had always had to fight twice as hard. {Blue and green}, stranger, outcast, girl. Pick your poison, she had overcome. But the world they lived in would still never accept her. Jack had learned not to care about her success, she only cared about everyone else's.
{Red and yellow} were the favorites in everything. The teachers loved them. They were too self-sacrificing to pull a prank or cause mischief.
It was a matter of teaching her beaten down housemates to believe in themselves and each other. If they won, that was only a side product.
Fools, she thought again.
Fools.

My current RP work:
Shoot. Did I slam the door on the {blue and greens}?
He rushed back and opened the door.
"Sorry for slamming it, baiiiiiiiii."
Atticus sat down on the ground after getting far away.
Do I really want to declare war on them? Am I being silly or ambitious?
He went back to his room and quickly wrote a letter.
Hey Jack,
Sorry if my sudden declaration of war or something bothered you. I'm not going to make any excuses for myself but, I feel that {red and yellow} has been taken for granted for quite some time. If we do nothing about it, it will keep being that way. I believe that if we are loyal to each other, we will be united and strong.
If you do not mind, if there is a sort of "war" against houses, I'm willing to offer up my services to you and your house. My declaration of war, I hope will be just to size each other's houses up and see how well an ally they would make.
Respectfully and (hopefully) understanding,
Att

He finished the letter and folded it up in a crisp envelope. He slid out of his dorm and quietly went over to the {blue and green} side. He didn't want to find which dorm was Jack's because he didn't want to be caught there, so he just left the envelope with Jack's name on it on the wall.
"Find her well..."
"Oh, did Jackie give yall the schpeal?""
He clapped.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
He made his way over to Jack, grinning.
"Whatchu thinkin' bout, amigo?"
wickedness?
Or is it
weakness?
You decide.

I bear you and your house no ill will. My "declaration" is not one of war, but of the betterment of house {Blue and Green}. For too long, the teachers have blamed every ounce of mischief on my housemates, every prank and every problem pinned on us. They assume that because we are calculating and dedicated, we will tear down everything in our way.
I merely wish to unify my brethren, to offer them hope and encouragement where there was once none. Every house needs a leader, and if no one else will step forward, I will. Because unlike with you, the teachers actively mistrust us. The idiot that is supposed to be our head of house hates us. I simply wish to... rise.
It seems you and Ayran have done the same, stepping into this role. I will offer any assistance that will bring no harm to my own house. I will teach you, teach your first years, teach any of your housemates as if they were my own. I know what it's like to be... ostracized. To be trodden upon and ignored.
Thank you for thinking of me and respecting my agenda; I truly appreciate your letter. I can only hope that our houses will work together for our mutual betterment in the very near future.
As always,

She tossed the letter into the air, where it burst into colorful sparks. It appeared in the air, hovering above Atticus.

My current RP work:
He slammed open his dorm door (poor thing).
"Alright {Red and Yellows} we have ourselves and alliance. With whom? None other than {Blue and Green}. I mean... well... I think it's an alliance? But, I believe it is the best for us. We are the house that is the most loyal, we stick together. Against this school, this very school that pinned people of the same personalities and likings together to try and make something organized. A school that pins all the blame for problems on one house. A school that uses us.
Jackery Soot, the prodigy has agreed to coach our house as well as hers. In case there is any conflict, we will fight with {Blue and Green}. Together, we will be the strongest, we will rule."
He grinned. "C'mon, we're going to {Blue and Green}. We will make an agreement and shake on it. The best way to do this is by having all of us together. What do you say?"
A murmur started and grew louder as the house started cheering and they travelled over to the {Blue and Green} dorms.
He follows behind Atticus leisurely, waiting for the following development without question.
Soon [Red & Yellow] has reached the front door of [Blue & Green] with surprise surprise!
Kendo Sato waiting for them!
That name took her back to the good times as well as the bad. But it was the nonchalant way that he had said it... No. She had survived this long without thinking about it. The first time she realized how vulnerable a person could be.
The door opened, and reality came crashing back in. She strode over to it, where Kendo was chilling, and {Red and Yellow} were queuing outside.
With a nod at Kendo, apologies hidden with the gesture, she ushered the {Red and Yellows} in.
"Meet our allies." The room was silent for a moment, and then an excited buzz swept through the {Blue and Greens}.
"We cannot change the status quo on our own. The {Blue and Greens} wish to no longer be unjustly villified, the {Red and Yellows} wish to no longer be underestimated. We share a common goal."
She grinned ruefully. "Nothing can stand in our way. To cooperation. To the future."

My current RP work:
Ayran mused, perhaps this years the system truly will change, for the better. Looking at the excited buzz of the crowd, whether some students were scared, while others were excited. They all had a slight anticipation in their hearts.
"Perhaps, this is the year where everything will change.. How exciting"
Ayran murmured, eyes bright, yes truly, perhaps one day every house will be united! Just thinking about it made him shiver in delight, during his year in the institution, perhaps this is the year everything will change, beginning with this.
Getting rid of the stereotypes forced upon by the schools.
"You should know by now that formalities are all I have. It is the only way to be taken seriously." While she put on a smile to go with the words, Jack was dead serious.
"By the way," She said quietly, "You owe me a moment of your time. We need to have a simple conversation, Kendo. But it can wait until later."

He grinned cheerfully.
"Let's save the formalities and get straight to the point, yeah?"
He completely ignored the part about having s conversation. He was used to her lectures by now.
wickedness?
Or is it
weakness?
You decide.
Ayran looked at Atticus in the corner of his eye, and suddenly realized, and nodded to himself. Truly, it was quite similar, even the personalities and manner of speech!
