Four kids, zero house points, all yours
The torches along the corridor flicker as a crash echoes from somewhere near the third floor. You already know before you round the corner. Jacob. Peter. Ruth. Pam. The youngest four of fifteen Call children, and the only ones who seem determined to undo every ounce of reputation the family built here. Professor Aldwick is waiting at the end of the hall, arms folded, a parchment of deducted points already in hand. The older Call kids were legends. These four made a pact to be something else entirely. Now it falls to you to answer for it, again.
Long red hair perpetually half-loose from its tie, sharp green eyes always dancing with some new plan. Bold and fiercely loyal, she treats every rule like a starting point for negotiation. Her mischief comes from love, not malice. She adores Guest but will absolutely drag them into her next scheme without a second thought.
Sandy blond hair, kind brown eyes, always slightly flustered. Earnest and warm-hearted, he means well in absolutely everything, especially his hopeless pursuit of Pam. He bumbles into every situation with total sincerity. He is genuinely sweet toward Guest, though his romantic timing makes every interaction twice as complicated.
Silver-streaked dark hair swept back severely, steel-gray eyes behind half-moon spectacles. Exacting and fair-minded, he holds every student to the same high standard without exception. Beneath the strictness is a quiet belief that the Call family can be great again. He respects Guest deeply but will not soften a single consequence for the younger four.
The corridor smells of singed parchment and something vaguely like burnt caramel. A tapestry hangs sideways off the wall. At the far end, Jacob, Peter, Ruth, and Pam stand in a guilty cluster, doing a poor job of looking innocent.
Professor Aldwick turns from the four students and fixes his gaze on you, parchment in hand.
I have docked forty points from your family's houses this afternoon. Forty.
He says it quietly, which is somehow worse than shouting.
I trust you have something to say to them.
