Sparrow headed out to the greenhouses curiously that afternoon. August had mentioned this morning at Language club that he would want to go to the Herbology Club but something had always come up on Sunday. His Sundays were usually busy already with tutoring and studying or the occasional prefect (or now head boy) thing. Plus if he wanted to go to Hogsmeade--either for a book or a date--he only had Sunday afternoons. Well, Sparrow usually just spent Sunday socializing or practicing lines, so she figured she could attend for him or something! Plus, between her and August she was the one that actually needed Herbology Tutoring.
Sparrow hummed lightly as she made her way there. vShe saw Aspen through the window and grinned, but when she got there, it was another familiar face that greeted her first.
”What the hell are you doing here?”
In contrast to his grimace, Sparrow lit up, throwing her arms up for a hug that her brother smoothly dodged. ”Wren-Wren! I didn’t know you were in the Herbology club! I guess that makes sense though!”
”That’s because I didn’t tell you,” Wren seethed. He glanced back at Aspen and bit back a more unnecessary response, instead opting to shut up and find a seat.
Sparrow danced through the greenhouse to give Aspen a quick hug. ”Most spectacular of Sundays to you, Asp-Asp!” She picked up a form before realizing it was just for tutors. She knelt down to give her brother’s cat a quick pat, then danced over to greet the other student in the club.
”Hello there, new friend! I’m Sparrow! Sparrow Winchester, but I do adore nicknames! That’s my older brother Wren-Wren, and of course you know our lovely friend Miss Aspen. I’m in Gryffindor! You’re not in Gryffindor! What’s your name though?”

A boy entered the green house, giving the girl, Aspen, a rock of some sort which was cute he supposed. Only a moment late the boy yelled at a girl entering, making Tori flinch just slightly. The girl seemed unphased though, even calling the boy her brother. He raised an eyebrow. Was that how siblings acted? He didn't know. He was an only child after all. The girl flitted around the room, hugging Aspen and her brother, before making her way over to him. Honestly it reminded Tori of a little song bird... which became even more ironic when the girl introduced herself as Sparrow. Tori had to stop himself from giggling at that fact.
"Uh no, I'm in Hufflepuff," he said with a smile. "My name's Hitori Miyazaki... but just Tori is fine." He paused to run a hand through his hair and then tug on his shirt awkwardly. "Uh its nice to meet you," he offered, hoping she would come up with the small talk so that he wouldn't have too. He could do small talk... just not start it. What were you even supposed to ask people when you first met them. This was why he had no idea how to make friends.

Aspen paused in her repotting when she heard someone enter. It was a younger student, probably a first year judging by the look of confusion on their face. They greeted themselves, questioning if they were early. "Not a bit! I'm Aspen, the club leader. Find somewhere nice to sit and we'll begin once a few more people wander in." Of course, almost immediately after came Wren's cat, who trailed in Wren himself. "Good morning Dunce, honey~ Thanks for bringing along Sergeant Grumpy with you!" The girl cooed while petting the fluffy cat, sending a playful smirk at Wren. He then gave her a gift, which was a neat little painted rock. Wren insisted he hadn't made it, but Aspen liked it anyway.
Setting the decorative rock atop the tutoring forms, she looked up at Wren's rather rude comment. It wasn't someone that was an enemy to Wren, in fact it was his little sister, who just looked happy as always. Did every family have at least one kid who seemed like a frickin drop of pure sunshine? Sparrow came over and gave Aspen a hug, which the older girl reciprocated. It must just be her older-sister-instincts kicking in. "Hello to you too, Sparrow. Wren, be nice to your little sister, she's precious." Sparrow quickly went over to talk with Hitori, who seemed a little... overwhelmed by Sparrow's vibrant personality. Hearing a small screech, Aspen scooped up Flik from the plant pot, setting him on the long table to investigate.
Don't be cautious, don't be kind You committed, I'm your crime Push my button anytime You got your finger on the trigger, but your trigger finger's mine
✱✲❃ Cas walked quickly to the greenhouses a bit later than usual to the club meeting but he figured it wouldn't be too much of a big deal. Usually Aspen would be preoccupied with getting together what they needed for whichever plants they were dealing with and Wren just sorta sat there so he figured he hadn't missed much if anything at all. He was then proven wrong when he walked into something just below madness. There was a young girl who was literally bouncing all over the place, Wren was scowling at her (normal) but Aspen was telling him off for it (not normal) and finally there was an even younger looking kid looking like he was seconds from bolting. "Do I want to know whats happening here?" Cas asked cautiously before setting down his backpack.

Canaan Grey Ravenclaw │ Sixth Year │ Sixteen Years Old │ Single
Canaan was unsure how he'd managed not to hear of a Herbology Club until now, but he decided to head out to Number Five Greenhouse to see what was going on. He brought along his own tools in a bundle, and was hopeful he wasn't going to be the only one present. Walking in, he was glad to see he wasn't the only other person there, though he was surprised to be the eldest there thus far, and saw Sparrow, whom he knew from the Music Club, and he smiled and waved toward her, as he approached Aspen Hill, whom he understood to be the club's captain.
"Um, hi. I'm interested in joining the Herbology Club," he said, somewhat hesitantly. "Are you interested in taking on additional members?" As he spoke, he collected what he first thought was a membership form, and then realized was a form for tutors. After a moment's thought, he decided to fill out the form; if nothing else, it might be fun to be a tutor, and it couldn't hurt having a little extra review work in Herbology.
Name: Canaan Grey House: Ravenclaw Year: Sixth Herbology Skill Level: I scored an O in my OWL and look to do the same for NEWTs next term. Why do you want to become a tutor? I think it would be fun to help mentor others in Herbology, and would be extra review for my classwork.

Our reasons are the same, But there's no-one we can blame For there's nowhere we need go, And the only truth we know comes so easily "
spaceBillie was obviously going to join the Herbology club, like, was that even a question? Honestly she should've joined already, but in her defense, she'd been busy and was known for being flighty. She was here now, though, and determined to help out in any way she could. She'd basically been raised by Jason, at least part-way, and her dad had worked at D&D for literally ever, so obviously she knew her stuff pretty well. And (no offense), she wasn't some bookwormy stuffy type that some people might find intimidating as a tutor. So she figured she'd be a good fit. She filled out a form to offer to help with the tutoring, then settled herself in with Aspen, not bothering to talk since it wasn't like the other girl didn't have a club to run and all.

Yukon was running late for his favorite club, herbology club. The joy of feeling dirt under his nails was always wonderful. He ran in and saw a few gathered, he greeted them, ignoring the tutor form. "Hey Aspen, Sparrow, Weeeeen!" He flopped his arm over Wren's shoulder, "I'm so glad you've made it back this year! You're looking as grumpy as ever."
He then saw a fellow Hufflepuff in the club and went to Tori taking Tori's hand and raising it in the air, "Everyone this, is my newest friend, Tori! A wonderful Hufflepuff indeed! A great addition to the Herbology Club." Had Yukon talked much to Tori, no. Did Yukon care? Also no. They didn't need to be awkward enemies here, they were going to be playing in the soil and getting nasty dirty anyway, may as well be friendly about it. There were so many more people in the club than last year, Yukon couldn't go and great them all, he would stay with his usual crowd, and first year Hufflepuff. Of course, there was also his fellow fourth year Hufflepuff, Billie, he gestured her over to join them, if she would like. He could make just as wonderful of an announcement about Billie as he had for Tori, he had no fear about it.

Willow Winifred Hill ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Hufflepuff ❀ Second Year Twelve Year Old ❀ Half Wood Nymph
✿ Location : Herbology Club (Greenhouse 5)
If there was one thing Willow looked forward to it was Herbology. She loved the class (not just cause her father taught it) and it didn’t hurt that her sister created a club for the subject. So that simply meant even more plant time that didn’t result to hours in the school gardens. Willow practically skipped to greenhouse five. She was happy to be outside and around the greenhouses. What were they going to spend time with today? Willow couldn’t wait to find out.
Entering the room behind a few others, Willow heard Caspian’s words. They’d met her first day. “Probably not,” She replied strolling over to him and the others. “I see we haven’t start yet, was afraid I was going to be late.” She added hopping onto a stool. She’d never been late before, and she wasn’t planning on starting. The plants certainly wouldn’t appreciate it.

Your confidence is quite refreshing, my dear Now then, a kind and true heart, Joyful and gracious I know just where to put you Hufflepuff!
spaceAs she entered the greenhouse, Lucia could not help but notice that most of the members seemed to be fourth years. This made sense, she supposed, since Aspen Hill had been the one to start the club, and she was herself a fourth year. It made it a little less intimidating than some other clubs, since she was surrounded by people her own age. Then again, most of the members knew one another, so she did feel a little like an interloper. Still, this was a club, open to anyone, not only students in the captain's year, so she pushed the feeling aside. She liked herbology, and was decent at it, thanks to Ada, so hopefully she did well enough once things got underway that people would like her.

Weslyn trailed out to Herbology after Yukon, a little worried they were running late. But Yukon was great at breaking the ice and entered with a friendly cheer that gave even her a startle.
”ACK. Gettoff Tater,” Wren had said, pushing Yukon away and using his nickname for when Yukon called him Ween. but he wasn’t scowling anymore, and he pulled out the seat next to him for Yukon. He had rolled his eyes at Aspen’s insistence he be nice to his “precious” little sister but chose to ignore Sparrow for now anyways. After Yukon had introduced the younger Hufflepuff, Wren presented the oldest Knolle with another rock: this one painted to resemble a pile of potatoes. ”You get a rock too,” he said. ”Throw it, chuck it, it’s your problem now.”
Sparrow had been excitedly shaking Tori’s other hand. ”Hello Mr. Tori! Oh I remember you now! You were in Drama Club yesterday! We’ll have two--oh no you were at Music too, weren’t you? ” She squealed with agreement when Yukon proclaimed Tori an excellent addition to the club. Sparrow couldn’t quite welcome him to Herbology the same way seeing as this was her first meeting too, but she could be excited!
Weslyn had barely gotten to wave at Billie and Willow when Sparrow continued along, greeting each of the members with a cheerful ”Hello!” if not by name and ending with another squeal as she hugged Willow. ”Willllloooooooowwwwwwww! It has been a thousand and twenty nine millenia since last we spoke!” She paused, seeming to realize that they had had class together and she had done this just a week ago. ”This is false, but time since class feels like eons ago. Hello New Friend!” She greeted another older student and introduced herself. Sparrow swung herself onto an unoccupied stool near this group and jumped into conversation. ”Canaan, we should walk from Music together if we're both coming here this semester! You’re a sixth year now, aren’t you? Must be a relief from exams!”
Weslyn sighed a little, relieved Sparrow was sufficiently distracted elsewhere. She greeted Tori with a quieter ”Good afternoon Tori." Wes paused, wondering if they were as nervous about Sparrow’s enthusiasm as she had been. ”Uhm...if you would like-- would you like to sit with us? Did you join because you enjoyed the first day of Herbology class?”

Prepare for your greatest moments Prepare for your finest hour The dream that you've always dreamed is Suddenly about to flower ✿❀ ~"This Will be the Day" by Jeff Williams ft. Casey Lee Williams, cover by Caleb Hyles.

Aspen snorted when Cas came in, quickly asking if he wanted to know what was going on. Following soon after was... Canaan, she thought his name was. He asked if they were open to new members, which Aspen felt should have been fairly obvious. "Yes, of course. Come on in. If you'd like to apply to be a tutor, forms are here. Other than that, we'll be starting soon." She fought off a small grin when he indeed grabbed a form, but the typically-frowning girl managed to keep a somewhat neutral face.
Next to wander in was Billie, who got a vibrant wave from Aspen, which made sense because they'd been friends since they were wee babies. Billie also filled out a form, then moved near Aspen. Coolio. Next in was Yukon, who greeted everyone, earning a wave from the captain, especially because he was pestering Wren, then introducing the first year to any that didn't know. Of course, Willow came in, "Hey Wills, I was worried you decided not to come." but of course, where there was one Hill, there were usually more to follow. The next one to join was a third year Slytherin, one Aspen was pretty sure was named Lucia. She looked uncomfortable, so the eldest Hill child decided to try and help. "C'mon in, everyone's welcome. Don't worry, we're going to start up here in a few minutes. Until then, you're free to mingle or... whatever." That sounded polite... probably. Glancing at her watch, Aspen tried to figure out if everyone was here (and fight the urge to be like her dad and lock the doors).

Aspen walked into the greenhouse, where her few days of prep work were (hopefully) going to come to fruition. She had made a few tiny gardens, each with a few colorful succulents and a baby cactus. She'd spent a lot of time making them, and had them set in equal spaces up the main table. She'd also set out a few herbology books, some of which she'd borrowed from the library, some she'd bought with her own money over the summer. The girl also took a few minutes to water all the plants that were growing in the greenhouse she'd more or less claimed as her own.
Once she was convinced everything was ready (and her watch beeped to let her know it was time) Aspen pushed open the door, propping it open with a heavy pot with a pretty shooting star hydrangea bush that she'd been caring for. Once that was all set up, the brunette picked up a small pair of shears to carefully tend one of her saplings. Flik was nestled into the pot, so she lifted him into her hair, where he held onto her messy bun and screeched softly. "I know, buddy. I'll put you back in the pot with some snacks in a minute..."
Canaan Grey Ravenclaw │ Seventh Year │ Seventeen Years Old │ Single
Canaan was looking forward to the opening of the Herbology Club as much as he had the Music Club. As much of an affinity that he had for music, he had a passion for green, growing things as well. He'd enjoyed being a Mentor last year, and was hoping to do that this year as well, as he wanted the additional chance to practice for his upcoming NEWTs. Dressed to work in the gardens, he had his apron, and a bundle containing his own Herbology tools, he'd walked out to the greenhouses.
When he stepped into the greenhouse, he saw Aspen was already there. Canaan smiled, and he said in a friendly, if a bit uncertain, tone, "Uh, hi. I'm interested in helping out again this year, if you'd like."

Yukon ran into Herbology club, and stopped directly in front of Aspen, "Long time no see Aspen." Sure, they had seen each other around, but they hadn't seen each other in Herbology Club! He was excited on their planting and what not for the year, it would be so exciting to see how things grew again. The best part of growing things? It wasn't too much work. You could just. plant it and water it and be done, and it brought back fond memories of the potato farm. Yukon made a note, he should bring some potato plants to keep at the greenhouse, why hadn't he already? Then he would always have a potato to hold when he was stressed, it was genius. he sat back, and waited for Wren to get in, he needed to see his other favorite fifth year, give the guy a nice big hug.

Wren had fallen behind Yukon getting out to Herbology Club because someone--cough cough, CAT, cough cough-- was stopping every few feet to sniff the flowers. Weslyn, in turn, had hung back to wait for him, and now Yukon was beyond calling distance.
”You didn’t have to wait for me,” Wren grumbled, finally just picking Dunce up and strolling with purpose.
”It’s okay, You always wait for me for Cooking Club,” Weslyn replied as they arrived. Her attention caught on the flowers by the door--”Good afternoon Aspen, Good afternoon Canaan. Hi Yukon! Sorry we fell behind. Um! What flowers are these? We had them bef--I think I’ve seen these before--In the gardens maybe?”
Wren let Dunce off inside the greenhouse, where she immediately bounded up to Yukon and then Aspen, pawing their feet and winding between their legs. Finally, she sat at Aspen’s feet, tail swishing, and mewed. ”Hi. ” Wren greeted everyone, standing over one of the small...succulent gardens. He missed his chance to say something mean remembering the little cactus Aspen had given him some time ago that was still sitting by his bed. Sunlight spells were all well and good, but maybe it wouldn’t hurt to move Ack out to the greenhouses. ”What’re these things?”
