“Dunstable Dursley,” his name rang over and over in his head as him and Yori headed back to the Hufflepuff common room. He still couldn’t believe that he got chosen as one of the Hufflepuff champions! And on top of that, it seemed that something else had happened while they were at the ceremony and he honestly wished that he knew what it was, but both professor Longbottom and Professor Shacklebolt looked quite worried. The two of them were walking in silence, it wasn’t because they disliked each other, but for sure Dunstable felt that he was speechless at the moment.
Of course it didn’t take them long to get to their common room, which was quite close to the kitchens and as soon as the said the password and then headed into the common room and were blasted by a surprise as black and yellow streamers got thrown at them and everyone was yelling and screaming congrats. Dunstable couldn’t help but blush as everyone seemed to be yelling congratulations to them and dragging them inside of the Common Room. He should’ve figured that they would all want to part and it seemed that there were snacks everywhere, probably thanks to one of them going to the house elves in the kitchen.
If he would’ve known that they had planned this he would’ve snuck out to Hogsmeade using a passageway his uncle had taught him to get a hold of some Butterbeer as well, but it seemed that they would be drinking up good ol’ pumpkin juice instead.
Dunstable grabbed one of the Goblets of Pumpkin Juice and held it high in the air, “To Hufflepuff!” he smiled as he looked around to see who would all follow suit.
OCC;; So this would be placed for right after the ceremony is over, well a bit later cause the champions would arrive later on after the rest of the Hufflepuffs, so let's party this out!

Poppy had walked back to the common room in a daze, being pushed along by a prefect because she simply wasn’t keeping up. She couldn’t believe it. Eight names chosen, only two from each house, and both Dunstable and Yori had been picked. Out of all the names in the goblet it was them. She wasn’t even the least bit disappointed that it wasn’t her (well, maybe a tiny bit, but it would pass) she was just incredibly proud and happy for two of her good friends. Two of her friends... this called for celebrations!
Of course, if it had been any other champions, Poppy was sure someone else would take the lead, but as soon as she reached the common room, she and a few others began preparations. A few were decorating the den-like room in house colours, others were moving things around to make more room. Poppy immediately made toward the kitchen, knowing she was probably the one who was closest to the house elves, considering her frequent visits to the kitchen.
She came back a few minutes later, levitating all sorts of goodies, glad to see that she’d made it back in before Dunstable and Yori got back. What was keeping them? Food was laid out on tables, glasses filled, music poured out of somewhere, she wasn’t quite sure. It was going to be good, she could see it already.
Delicately, she edged her way to the front of the gathered Hufflepuffs and gathered up as much confetti as she could in her hands, and let it fly when Dunstable and Yori came through the portrait hole, shouting congratulations along with everyone else. When her hands were empty she snatched up one of the goblets, and raised hers after Dunstable did. “To Dunstable and Yori! The greatest champions Hufflepuff has ever seen!” she proclaimed proudly and loudly, and trailed off with a happy laugh at the end.
tags; all the hufflepuffs get yer butts in here >3 outfit; puffs can partay notes; c'mon! let's show everyone how to huffie!

being a seventh year hufflepuff who liked to sneak about the castle and pull pranks on occasion she'd learnt a fair bit about hogwarts - including how to throw a party and get the best snacks for such an occasion. as soon as they'd been dismissed, lyra had said a quick 'be back in two mins' to her best friends and boyfriend and dissapeared into the crowd.
she'd peeled herself away from the thick throng of people streaming out of great hall and hurried along an empty corridor to a passageway well used by her and a few close friends or hers she'd shared the secret with other time. slipping into the passageway apparently undetected, she'd spent some mysterious minutes away from the castle before returning laden with gifts such as sweets and a few levitated crates of butterbeer. oh yep - she had.
somehow managing to sneak this levitating mass infront of her without being stopped or shoved by hordes of people, lyra murmered the hufflepuff common room password and ducked inside, grinning as she caught sight of all fellow puffs. " I COME BARING GIFTS !" she called out to the room, putting the crates onto a nearby table and opening them to reveal kegs of butterbeer. "drink's on me guys." she grinned and mustered up a goblet for herself, pouring a cup of the delicious drink and backing off so others could get some before glancing around for people. "congrats dunstable!" she called over the din of the people before she headed out the way so she could try and find bradley, louis or will.

the goblet of fire ceremony had been quite the suprise. When Yori's name had been called he had figured that she was the champion and he couldn't have been more happy for her. still the headmaster hadn't stopped there and instead another champion had been named, dunstable. although he was a bit dissapointed that his name hadn't been called, bradley decided not to let it bother him too much.
as soon as the ceremony was over lyra disappeared and bradley went to the common room without her. He knew that she would soon return to the common room. After all the champions had been chosen and it was time to celebrate. hufflepuff had two fine champions and he was sure that working together that hufflepuff had a real good chance of being on top during this tournement. somehow the others had gotten there before him and he took a drink from lyra as she entered. raising his glass he smiled at the other hufflepuffs in the room."Yori and Dunstable the best champions hufflepuff has ever had! he was so ready to see what they would do with the first task.

The Goblet of Fire ceremony finally concluded leaving the Great Hall in utter chaos. Everyone was pushing and shoving trying to race back to their common rooms to celebrate on who got chosen for their house. It was a sea of smiles, laughter, cheers, scowls, mutterings, and shoving and as a prefect Shailene had to help restore order with the other prefects. But it was uncontrollable at this point. Shailene tried hard to guide people in the right direction, pulling young ones out of the crowd she they wouldn't get hurt. Finally once things had died down a bit, Shailene was able to join her fellow Hufflepuffs in the common room for a huge party.
Shailene entered the common room with her clothes wrinkled, hair a mess and beads of sweat scattered on her forehead as if she had just taken a tumble through the dryer. The common room was quite chilly since it was in the basement of the school but it felt amazing to Shailene. She quickly ran upstairs to change her clothes and give her head a quick brush before returning to help with the decorations.
Shailene couldn't be more happier for the two champions she felt as if the goblet chose well/ Although Shailene had submitted her name in hopes of getting picked she knew that it would turn out like this. Dunstable and Yori were the two puffs' to lead them to victory. Yellow and black decorations were everywhere making it feel just like home for all the hufflepuffs...and well it was home to them since it was their common room. The food was on the table and Lyra had just walked in with a case of butterbeer. Normally Shailene would of said something but today Shailene felt that she was off duty just for tonight. She was in no way that pompous about being a Prefect that she would ruin this for everyone.
The room was crowded and everyone waited in silence watching the entrance. They should be arriving any minute now. Suddenly the door burst open and everyone threw their streamers at Dunstable and Yori. "Congratulation Dunstable and Yori. You are surely going to lead us to victory!" Shailene shouted with excitement. She was smiling from ear to ear looking at her friends proudly.
