Daily Dragon writer || Language club
_______________ One moment August was struggling up the stairs, and the next he was being scooped up. At first he tried to exclaim some kind of protested greeting "Mr. De--Ferdie! H-hi!" but soon shut up to listen to the rapid-fire instruction. He was soon deposited in the newspaper room, and assigned to cookie dutie. "Absolutely," he acknowledged, and started pulling cookies from the box that he now noticed had been floating behind Ferdie. When the cookies were neatly arranged next to the forms, August took a cookie and form for potential writers and quickly penned in his application. As he was occupied, another older student walked in with a cat. "Hello," August greeted, before checking back in with Ferdie. "Is there anything else I can do to help out? Would he need help with..typewriters?" Name: August LiYear: 1 House: Slytherin Any experience: No journalism-related experience, but I have been writing short stories for school and for fun for two years. Why do you want to be a writer for the Daily Dragon?: I admire Ferdie's writing and would like to learn from him.

ARIANELL BLODWEN _________
Slytherin, Sixth Year _____._____
════════════════════════ ________
Arianell bundled up in her fluffy coat before she left the common room that day. It was freezing down in the dungeons and chilly everywhere else it seemed. Passing the Muggle Studies class, she reached the empty classroom where the newspaper club was held and sized the room up and down in a single glance. "Hello boys'," she said breezily, always on her best behavior when in the club. It was one of the few places she bit her tongue and worked happily along with other people, because, for once, they all had a common goal: news and gossip. Ari was a gossip-hound. So she was eager to snatch up the role of gossip girl and advice columnist for the year. When she graduates, she might actually have to give the real newspaper game a try.
Name: Arianell Blodwen
Year: Sixth
House: Slytherin
Any experience: 3 years in the club
Why do you want to be an advice/gossip writer for the Daily Dragon?: I'm a naturally curious person, I think everyone has a right to know as much as they can about the places and people around them.
Do you agree to have your writing reviewed and checked by editors before being published?: Yes
This position has a deadline, do you understand and can you abide by the deadlines given?: Yes

  ☀ JONAH CASTOR LANE ☀
Half-Blood │ Ravenclaw │ Second Year Beater │ Twelve Years Old │ The Daily Dragon
» Fall 2043 » The Daily Dragon » With: Newspaper Crew
» Status: Glad to be back ═══════════════════X♫X♊X✿X═══════════════════ Although the year had admittedly gotten off on a rocky start, Jonah found himself feeling at perfect peace from the moment he stepped into the club room. The Daily Dragon smelled of ink, parchment, and sugary sweets, filling Jonah with a sense of home as he dropped his messenger bag by a typewriter and pulled his camera off from around his neck.
The second year filled out his form as he scanned over the room. It seemed like so far it was just the usual faces, with the new addition of August that he’d already been expecting. “Hey August, glad you made it!” He greeted cheerfully as he partook in a chocolate-chip cookie. Ferdie’s cookies were the best—he’d attempted to make a batch himself over the vacation, but his had come out horribly over-creamed to the point they were about as thick as a sheet of parchment. His brother’s attempt had gone over much better, but even those had paled in comparison. “Stairs didn’t get you on the way up, did they?”
‘It’s going to be strange when Ferdie’s gone next year…’ He thought to himself. Sure it had only been a year in the club, but Ferdie was still the only editor he’d known, and he wasn’t entirely sure who was officially taking over once he was gone. Was it Eddie? Someone else? He supposed the newspaper was in capable hands no matter who took over—he pretty well trusted every member of the club— but that wouldn’t change the fact that he would certainly be missing Ferdie’s calming presence. “Ferdie, is there anything I can do to help?”

_______________
August stayed nearby, ready to jump at the opportunity if Ferdie needed anything, but greeted lane and Vespera when they arrived with a nod and polite smile. His eyes narrowed a sliver when Lane mentioned the stairs....He knows and he's mocking you, he thought immediately, but outwardly smirked at the joke. "No no, it was fine," he said with a wave, hoping that Vespera hadn't been anywhere nearby to see when Ferdie had had to rescue him--and the no doubt comical expression August had as he flapped after Ferdie.
Speaking of, Vespera herself showed up shortly after, and greeted them with the customary pokes. "Hardly the first," he muttered. "Yes, thank you for your welcomes. I hope to be a good addition to the team and look forward to learning a lot from everyone."

The road outside my house
Is paved with good intentions
Hired a construction crew
'Cause it's hell on the engine
And you are the dreamer ➸Hαℓƒвℓσσ∂ ➸Gячƒƒιиdσя Sενεитн Ƴєαя ➸Ƒємιηιѕт ➸Cнαѕεя ╰☆╮Gi walked into the newspaper club room with a bittersweet feeling. She'd joined her first year when it had just started up again and now she was a seventh getting ready to leave and the club was thriving like it should, it was all so beautiful! She was going to miss the camaraderie that came from the club but she would hopefully still find it out in the real world when she finally (hopefully finally she means) started her work as a forreal forreal photographer. She passed by Jonah talking with his group of friends and just gave his hair a light tousle finding the junior photographer as adorable as usual before finding and filling out the usual forms and grinning at Ferdie. "Hey! Ready for our last year? Wow, that sounded a whole lot less sad when I was thinking it." Gi grimaced lightly at her words but bounced right back when she saw the normal box of cookies beside him.
Name: Gi-Seung Cho
Year: Seventh
House: Gryffindor
Any experience: Six years with the club and many before that as a candid photographer!
Why do you want to be a photographer for the Daily Dragon?: I absolutely love taking pictures and it's something I plan on doing for the rest of my life so why not do what you love and love what you do, you know?!
Do you have your own camera and means to develop pictures?: Yes
This position has a deadline, do you understand and can you abide by the deadlines given?: Yes
And we are the dream
I could write it better than you ever felt it
So hum hallelujah
Just off the key of reason
I thought I loved you
But it's just how you looked in the light

  Make my way through the motions, I try to ignore it
But home's looking farther the closer I get
Don't know why I can't see the end, is it over yet?
A short leash and a short fuse don't match
They tell me it ain't that bad
Now don't you overreact

With his parents’ divorce and having to move to stupid, pointless Godric’s Hollow, he was eager to leave and get back to Hogwarts. After talking to Vespera he knew he should talk to his mother, but… He just wasn’t ready. He hoped throwing himself into his work for the next couple months would help him to sort through his feelings on the whole matter so he could talk to her over Christmas, but who knew?
Jonah was pleasantly surprised when he stepped into The Daily Dragon to be met with the familiar smell of cookies. He grinned when he spotted Felix. “Hey, you kept with tradition!” After placing his bag in his usual seat, Jonah partook in one of the sugary sweets as he went about completing his form. “Did you make these yourself, Felix? They’re good! Y’know, if you need help next time, I’d be happy to lend a hand. I tried to make some last year like Ferdie, but…” He frowned, “Well, they turned out okay, but actually you’d probably be better off with my sister, come to think of it. Mine tend to come out flat as a disc.”

His cookie nearly ended up being his death however as he nearly choked when Felix asked him to take over his previous position and eventually take over as editor in a couple years. “What, you’re serious?”
Oops. He hadn’t meant to say that out loud. What could he say? He was shocked!
“I mean, yeah,” He tried again, barely containing his giddiness now that he’d had a second to let it sink in. “Absolutely! I’d love to. I’ll do my best.”
Jonah looked down to see Splat the cat sniffing at his shoe and bent down to pet the fluffy little angel. He was pretty sure he hadn’t stepped in anything, then again… He did just come from visiting Circe at the Owlery. The little bugger better not have snuck a present in his path on the way out, or he’d give the bird a stern talking to later. He looked back up to Felix with a grin.
“Well, I have no house elf connections. Guess I better learn to bake, eh?” That, or bribe his siblings… Why was he the only Lane that was useless in the kitchen?═════════════════════════════════════════════OOC:

ARIANELL BLODWEN _________
Slytherin, Seventh Year _________
════════════════════════ ________
Arianell was running a little later than anticipated. She had a few pieces she was working on, nothing she was ready to show, but she was happy to have an idea to bring to the table. She just needed to finish a few more interviews with the veteran quidditch players and make her predictions on who, if any, would be scouted. She was also on a hunt for dirty little secrets: disowned family members, jilted lovers, or secret escapades. The problem was, when you're in a school with a bunch of tolerant wankers who are perfectly okay being with a bunch of half-breeds, not much is really considered a "dirty secret". Blech.
Felix and Jonah were already inside when she entered the room. And surprise, surprise, the club was being passed from one future white man to the next. Arianell would have rolled her eyes if she weren't used to it. Ever since her little brother had been born, it was a lesson she had to learn over and over and over again. She smiled and nodded to both boys' as a greeting but didn't disturb them, instead, she checked the typewriters and cast a few much needed cleaning spells.
Name: Arianell Blodwen
Year: Seventh
House: Slytherin
Any experience: 4 years in the club
Why do you want to be an advice/gossip writer for the Daily Dragon?: I love to listen and people watch; I'm good at finding a story and even better at being persistent until I get the story I want.

 ❃Vespera❃Salazar❃ Third Year Slytherin ▬▬"An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day." ▬▬ Vespera walked into the Daily Dragon, and ran up to Jonah, before poking him, with her quill. She then grabbed a form and wrote down, sloppily, her answers. If they didn't know the answers by now, would they ever? She then grabbed a cookie and grinned, "Jonah, you only have 4 more years to be poked by a quill upon the starting day of the Dragon, how does that make you feel?" She didn't wait for an answer, nor did she yet know that Jonah would be the editor-in-chief in a couple of years. All that mattered now was she would be finding a story (or be assigned one) and she would write on it once again. She pulled out her notebook and began jotting down ideas for stories, and by that she actually began drawing circles because no stories came to her at this point. form hastily answered Name: V.

 If we take a walk out, in the morning dew,
We can lie down, so I'm next to you,
Come inside for a little home made tea,
And if you fall asleep, at least you're next to me,
 Half-Blood │Ravenclaw Prefect │ Fifth Year Beater │ Fifteen Years Old │Editor of The Daily Dragon │Dueling Club
» Autumn 2046 » The Daily Dragon » With: Formerly Rhea, awaiting staff/applicants
» Wearing: Blue Sweater over White Button-up, Jeans, Glasses. » Status:Dragon, Sweet Dragon ═══════════════════X♫X♊X❣X═══════════════════ Two years of preparing for today, and Jonah still wasn’t sure he was ready to be Editor in Chief. Anxiety pooled in his stomach, fluttering about like butterflies with jousting sticks. Was this how Felix had felt when he took over? He’d gotten there early, plenty of time to make up the forms and sort out cookies with his little sister. She’d really gone all out with chocolate chip, oatmeal, sugar, and… Were those fluffernutter cookies? ‘Gee, wonder who those were planned for.’ He rolled his eyes. This crush was dragging on far too long if you asked him. Once things seemed to be set up, he leaned against a desk and snagged a fluffernutter.
“Seriously, Re, thank you. I owe you.” The cookies would have been entirely overdone if she hadn't been so kind to step in.
“Ohh, I know. Don’t worry, I’ll be cashing in on the favor later, dear brother~” Rhea teased. After counting off the treats to be sure she hadn't forgotten any in her dorm, the witch pulled on her backpack, ready to roll. “Anyway, I’m off to the music room! Have fun, okay?”
“Of course. Don’t work too hard.” He gave his sister a kiss on the forehead and she was off.
Jonah scarfed down the rest of his cookie and straightened out the forms for a third time. Really, more so than opening the dragon, he was nervous—dreading, even—to appoint his managing editor. The choice had been obvious; the kid was such a workaholic and surely deserved it, but honestly? He wasn't looking forward to the prospect of working together. It wasn't like they were exactly on the best of terms, but so long as they could remain professional—and he was positive they could—then he was sure they would get some great issues out this year. He just wished Ves would get in here already so he could chill out.═════════════════════════════════════════════OOC:Open for '46-'47 Year! And if I wake up, say it's late love, go back to sleep,
I'm covered by nature, and I'm safe now,
Underneath this oak tree, with you beside me.
