Making it up to Will

Wandering aimlessly around the grounds, Dixie tossed her wand into the air, and caught it.
Doing this fifty more times, she found a piece of the lake that was thankfully empty.
Sighing, she wondered how they would fix the situation with Will.
Perhaps everyone dressing up in drag would be a good idea...

Jasmeet walked up to Dixie, and picked up a few rocks, mimicking what Dixie was doing. Her eyes were filled with tears, but she kept them back.

"So what should we do, Dixie? I mean I didn't want to hurt his feelings. I'll do anything to make it up to him."

Dixie sighed, and looked towards the distance. "Well, first of all, we should stop talking about Wills situation, that the first thing. We got to apologize to him. If he refuses, we corner him and apologize. If he magaes to escape, we kidnap him."
Smiling, she looked quickly at Jas. "I'm kidding."

Jasmeet managed a small smile, and looked towards the Lake. "I just want to see him anywhere, and I'll apologise. Even if I have to make a fool out of myself, dress up, or beg on my knees, I'll do it."

"Though your plan about kidnapping him doesnt sound so bad," she said, trying to lighten the mood.

Smiling at the fact that her friend had cheered up a bit, she suggested "How about we remake the poster and make Will look like a WWE wrestler? I mean, every guy out there would probably love to look like one of them." she grinned, and said mischieviously "In fact, we can have him holding us in a choke hold or something."
Dixie pushed her glasses up her nose, and laughed.

Jasmeet smiled, "Well I'm done with anything to do with photos. I don't to make him more madder than he is."

Jasmeet plopped herself down, thinking of ways that she could apologise to Will. If only he would talk to her, she didn't know what was going through his mind.

"And anyway, you guys didnt do anything. It was me who started it."

Dixie shrugged, plopping down across from Jasmeet. "Well, it doesn't help that Rabies, Casserole, and I laughed at the pictures. It's not exactly a thing that good frinds do."
Frowning, she said thoughtfully "Maybe we could do something speical.. like... I GOT IT!!" She cried, leaping to her feet.
Her idea might fail, but she was sure that it would be worth it.

"Dixie whatever we do. I know that he wont let me go that easy by just taking his photo off and saying sorry. I've really hurt him this time, and I can't expect that he'll just forgive me like that," she said, knowing true well that her words were right.

With a manic glint in her eye, Dixie grinned, and remembered one thing Will would love to have. That coveted bottle of Acromantula venom. She wasn't ready to go into the Forbidden Forest, but she was willing to fork over half of her Galleons for it.
"We should order Acromantula venom. The guy nearly drowned and went into the forest just to get it!"

"I don't think his angry with you and Rave. I think it’s just me and Cass that his angry with because we put up those photos. Well I think now I've lost my friend and it's all my fault," she said, before unable to keep her tears back any longer, she started to cry.

Dixie patted her friend on the back, and dug in her pocket until she found a small package. "Here, have this Chocolate Frog." she offered to Jas, and she began to think.
Will probably wasn't letting anyone off the hook easily, so maybe even venom wasn't going to help anything.

Jasmeet took the Chocolate Frog from Dixie, a myriad of tears still falling down her cheek, “Thanks,” she managed to her friend.

She was stronger than this, so why had she broken down like that. Wiping her eyes, she looked into the distance above the Lake, thinking about what she could do. There was no hope.

Almost reading Jas's mind, Dixie said "There still is hope. I mean, you guys are the new Golden Trio! I mean, something like this will blow over, I can promise you that."
She sighed and pulled in her knees. "As for when... I dunno."

"I have no excuse," said Cass, as she sat down. "you guys are all so close. I'm just that mean person that jumps on at someone's insecurities. Though I'm sure I didn't realise it would impact him so."
Cass thought of endless ways to make it up to him, but really, Will was an intelligent kid, like most of her friends here, and he wouldn't succumb to a flimsy sorry. He'd want an explanation or something memorable to forgive them by.
But really, the nagging feeling at the back of her mind was that she had proven what girls were like- Mean, backstabbing, catty. Which was everything she despised.
"Dixie, I'll pay half of that venom, if you want."

Dixie shrieked when Cass just suddenly swooped on them like that. Laughing at herself, she waved her friends request away with her hand. "You don't need to do that, I bet I got enough Galleons to pay for it. Besides, I think prices have gone down."
Sighing, she looked out onto the lake.
"I wonder what else we will end up doing for his forgiveness..."

"I'll make the octopus his pet, if he likes," she said with a wry smile.
"When I swam to the middle of the lake to make a Tri-Wizardy task for Theresa, either the squid or the octopus helped me. It was surreal. Cool though."
That didn't sound like enough though. Even though an eight legged non-spider sounded like a killer pet.
Emphasis on killer

Dixie blinked. "You what??" she asked, a bit taken back. She swam into the lake and what?
"Hmm..." she pulled out a spare bit of parchment, and a pencil she smuggled into the grounds for times when taking out a bottle of ink and blotter wouldn't be quick enough to use.
"Captue... Giant... Squid." she muttered, writing this down quickly.

"What what?" asked Cass, not sure what Dixie missed out on.
It sounded simple enough to her: Cass was being difficult and made Theresa swim half a mile so she could uncover her present (and everybody else's mini gifts- 'cos her mum always told her to go to a party prepared.)
Cass grinned at the sight of a notepad. A mental note in her head told her to get a notepad.

She smiled and said "No, I caught onto what you said, but that's sort of surprising. But pretty cool!" she added quickly, and looked at Casserole eyeing her notepad.
Grinning, she set down her pencil, and handed the notebook over to her. "Keep it. It shows all my evil ideas, disturbing thoughts, and cravings of carrots."
Hastily, she added "Thwres nothing too weird or anything, but my ramble on tofu on page five was very random..."
