Clarke frowned at her brothers words and bit back a scathing reply. She knew they would be talking about that, everyone had been. It was all they could think about nowadays. Perhaps she was mistaken but she had always thought it was polite to ask instead of just barging in.
"Yes, of course, Joshua," she began dryly, "We all know that those gnomes have been getting a little out of hand lately."
Well, she could do sarcasm as well. Beth hadn't said a word but then again, Clarke didn't expect her to. Wasn't she supposed to be packing or something? Then again, Clarke herself should finish soon as well. So she had no room to talk. Her parents hadn't specifically said anything about coming up to check on the older ones so she wasn't worried about them coming up anytime soon.
Smiling at Evelyn's comment, she studied her and thought she was so cute, the way she acted. Clarke liked her older cousin. Evelyn could be really cool when she wanted to be. Hearing Arthur's offhand comment, she shot him the look. You know the one. Then she softened her expression when he finished talking. Yes, she liked that.
"Of course we can milk this," she said simply.
After all, they were Daltons. This could be used for their advantage if they played the right cards. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -[/center] THIS THREAD IS finished.

bethany rolled her eyes as joshua replied to clarke. garden gnomes. couldn't he come up with anything better? she knew all to well that he was being sarcastic, she was the queen of sarcasm after all. beth was tempted to magic one up from the garden and send it chasing her screaming sister through the house, but her parents would flip. perhaps that was what she needed to do. they were clearly going to hogwarts, that had been made very clear, and they weren't to voice any disagreement of the arrangement, in front of their parents anyway. she was well within her rights to make a statement though. the cake incident had certainly made the adults aware that she wouldn't be 'going peacefully', or at least her aunt. were they barking up the wrong tree? was it perhaps their parents that they needed to cause havoc for and not the school? it would be much easier, that was for sure. so many rooms to trash and in so many ways, and there were just four people that they needed to wind up, as opposed to the entire staff team of hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. for now, she needed to worry about preparing herself, physically and mentally. most of her bags were packed, but she could still cram a little more into the third trunk, and a little extra if she placed a few charms on it. milking it sounded very fun indeed. beth would have loved to go to the gladrag's wizardwear branch in paris, and perhaps even some of the muggle shops there. her mother would probably allow it since she too loved shopping, and it would give beth a chance to improve her french. "my list of reasons not to burn down hogwarts is getting a little too long for my liking."
CLOTHES !? ahh, click it. MADE BY !? vixity at caution. STATUS !? completed. TAGGED !? arthur, clarke, evie, and josh. WORDS !? three zero six.

WELL GO GET YOUR SHOVEL A N D W E ' L L D I G A D E E P H O L E TO BURY THE CASTLE, BURY THE CASTLE - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Joshua knew that she wouldn't take his sarcastic remark, and he heard her answer and laughed. "Yes they are. Much like the Dalton adults" [/color] He replied to both Clarke and Beth with one answer. If there were anyone running wild around here, it was the Dalton children, but the adults had seemed to think that they needed to go to Hogwarts to be disciplined. Josh decided that if the Dalton's thought that if sending the children to Hogwarts would discipline them, then the kids should do the opposite and wreak havoc. Because if Hogwarts wasn't disciplining them, then there was no point them being there, and then they could come home. At least Josh hoped that would work, as he didn't want to stay at Hogwarts for four months. It would be hell. Josh heard Arthur answering Clarke with a decent answer. "She knows. She's not stupid."[/color] He said, shaking his head. Did he seriously think that Clarke didn't know what they were seriously talking about? She was the sister of Beth and Josh, and they were smart, so she had to be smart to, it was just logical. Josh heard Arty's words and he rolled his eyes. "Milk this? You want to be there long enough to milk this, Clarke?"[/color] Josh asked, turning some book that was on Beth's bed around. He didn't want to be there long enough to milk this, and he didn't know how Arthur planned to milk this, but he wasn't going to ask, as he was sure that he'd end up trying to convince them by telling them anyway. They were the Dalton's. Of course they could milk it if they wanted! But Josh didn't particularly want to waste enough time to milk Hogwarts for all they could. He'd rather be back here in a weeks time with nannies and house-elves running around after them, putting out fires and attempting to discipline them. That always amused Josh! Watching nannies run away screaming because they set the new sofa on fire was always something to laugh at on a Sunday morning! He remembered when the last nanny they had decided to run away. He couldn't remember why she left, but he was sure that it was something they had done. It was always something they had done! And that was why he didn’t know why the last one had gone because they had lost so many nannies because of their antics, that he lost track of the reason. He honestly didn’t know where his parents found their nannies, as with the reputation they had, he didn’t know how they managed to hire them. ”As long as that list is shorter than the reasons to burn down Hogwarts, it’s fine”[/color] Josh joked, poking his tongue out at her. He didn’t like that she was even thinking of reasons not to burn down Hogwarts. If they didn’t burn it down, maybe they could just set a few things on fire, and that would be enough for them. And plus they could do some other stuff, like he’d have to do something in the potions room, as there was so much he could do! Potion to eat through the rock and make a hole in the floor, or wall, depending on which way he spilled the cauldron. Maybe he’d manage to melt both the floor and the wall. Now that was an idea![/size][/blockquote] - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

As far as explaining everything they had discussed to her younger cousin, she couldn’t be bothered, and she figured the girl would have already gathered the general consensus from their slightly raised tones, upon entering the room. She figured that everyone else, or at least one of them, would comment on the topic of their conversation again, for the benefit of the youngest Dalton in the room. And, being psychic, the others did just that. Arthur of course, being Arthur, just went for the blunt statement option, just simply stating outright what they had been talking about for the last twenty minutes or so. She couldn’t see the point of this, as she was certain that Clarke was already aware of the real theme. She portrayed this slight puzzlement with a similar expression flitting across her features for a few seconds, but could not bring herself to speak at that moment. No doubt someone else would. As she predicted, both Clarke and Joshua spoke up. Her psychic powers were astounding. Or maybe it was just that she spent too long in the company of her relatives.
“I’m with Josh,”
[/color] she stated immediately, after the idea of ‘milking’ their situation came up. Despite the earlier protests that they weren’t shallow in the slightest, the very voicing of milking everything appeared to contradict this considerably. “Besides, there isn’t anything that I would want that would make me satisfied with this fate. I’m not about to change my opinion of Hogwarts just for the sake of a new dress or a parrot.”[/color] Okay, the parrot might have seemed a bit random, even for Evie, but that was the first couple of material items that she could think of, that illustrated her point. Anyway, she was slightly tiring of the whole buying whatever she wanted in return for not making someone’s life hell. It seemed to her that the Dalton adults might not be short of money, but definitely starting to run out of ideas, and items that they could purchase for the children. If they resorted to this method of bribery to solve any problems that arose, they’d soon run out of items that they could physically buy. Bethany’s next comment distracted her slightly from her own thoughts. It wasn’t merely the fact that her cousin had spoken up, after a while of remaining silent, but more the fact that she had just admitted to liking the idea of a lifestyle change. Had they been listening to the same conversation? Evelyn was still completely unconvinced by any of the arguments put forward, and now Beth was seriously considering going back on everything she’d previously said? This made Evie dislike the school a bit more, hating it for making her cousin think it wouldn’t be so bad. If it had the power to do that to someone like Bethany, what chance did the younger Daltons have? And this was before they’d even got there. Merlin only knew what changes it would make to their thinking patterns once they actually set foot into the castle. She shook her head fiercely; she didn’t like these possible futures at all. She was staying with the same opinion she had started with. And there was nothing that Hogwarts could throw at her that would alter this. She wasn’t changing her principles for nothing and nobody.[/size][/blockquote][/blockquote] TAGGED|| bethany, joshua, arthur & clarke. NOTES|| none to mention, WORDS|| five-five-seven.

Hold your head high heavy heart. So take a chance and make it big. [/font][/center] Arthur rolled his eyes as Josh said she wasn't stupid "Coulda fooled me" he muttered to himself as sat back against the wall and gazed out the window. "I plan to milk it before i even get there" Arthur told them to come back Josh's 'you want to be there long enough to milk it' comment. Arthur couldn't help but feel he was the only one in the entire room that had a decent view of the idea and nobody was listening to him.. as usual.
To his surprise Beth seemed like the only one giving the entire Hogwarts thing a chance but he knew that Josh was anti-Hogwarts and would win her over no matter how great Hogwarts was for her. Sighing slightly to himself he pulled out his rather tacky mp3 player, sure it was muggle but how else was he expected to listen to music the others couldn't hear. Completely shrugging off the conversation he put mp3 on and began to listen to Human After All by Daft Punk. Cause it’s the last you’ll ever get. If we don’t take it, when will we make it?
