So it goes.
Sadde doesn't come up with a good idea for a club for most Slytherins. Their intersecting interests seem to lie in the vicinity of "Pureblood club" and that's something Sadde will not support. They haven't managed to befriend all firsties, but their consistent association with the Ravenclaws coupled with helping people out pretty consistently has gotten most people to give them the benefit of the doubt. The trickster-ish streak does mean people are a bit confused about them, though.
Older Slytherins are still pretty resolutely against Sadde, but that's not too bad, and it's only been three and a half months.
(Also, Sadde has managed to not ask Miranda about her plans for a month and a half. Even if the curiosity is eating them inside.)
And Winter Holidays are next week.

"Your other three names are good. And... hm, charm is already a kind of quark... hexon, maybe."

"Well thanks! But hexon is really awesome too and sounds all science-fictiony and you made it up, so kudos for you. Would jinxon and curson work, do you think? Curson sounds kinda science-fictiony too."

"Curson does sound science-fictiony. Jinxon is maybe too much consonant in a row but it's okay otherwise. Of course, it'd depend if there were actually special particles that mostly showed up for those kinds of spells."

"There's probably some particle that just kinda exists there, in the background, when a lot of magic is practiced in a place, though, otherwise electricity would only stop working when spells were actually cast."

"Hmm, yeah, so they're like, misbehaving in specific ways." Pause. "I'm not sure if this is evidence for or against the thaumo-particles hypothesis."

"It's also pretty annoying that particle accelerators run on electricity so it's not like it's easy to test anything either way..."

He thinks about that then shrugs and shakes his head. "I think that's probably lower on my priority list than becoming an animagus."

"If I find any Ravenclaws that look like they'd have grown up to be particle physicists if they were muggles I'll tell them about it."
always_and_forever
"I dunno! Maybe they ask these kinds of questions but then go ahead and try to answer them. Maybe it's the people who invent spells."
always_and_forever
"Yeah, possibly, though maybe there's a way to tell before they can actually take those electives."
