The inside of the Heartslabyul dorm was cold, to say the least. The only sound that made its way present was the sound of crickets outside and also,

The sound of heels clicking and clacking against the polished tiled floors.

In the lobby of the dormitory sat a student on one of the couches, he currently had his fists rested on his knees, as his lips quivered as he tried to steady his ever shaking body.

With the sound of the heels clicking, he hesitantly looked up and what awaited him was the sight of his Housewarden approaching him.

As if it was an unspoken command, the student rose from his seat and stood straight with his head hanging low.

Seeing this, Heartslabyul's Dorm Leader then sternly stated, "Rule No.249 of The Queen of Hearts Law: 'One must be adorned in pink cloths when tending to the flamingos.'" In response, the student only worsened his shaking.

But yet said nothing, so thus, he continued speaking, "You were supposed to be in charge of feeding the flamingos, yet you weren't wearing any pink clothing? Why is that?"

Knowing that it would further upset his Dorm Leader even more if he refused to speak upon being addressed, the student rose his head to stare at his Housewarden, "Well, I.. Uhm- My.. clothes were in the laundry.. I thought they would be ready by my turn but I miscalculated, an honest mistake on my part, please forgive me—! I'm begging you!"

The Heartslabyul Housewarden sighed, and placed a hand on his hip, "This is your second time breaking the rules. Do you know how serious this is? I've already gave you a chance but I can't overlook this again."

Seeing where this was going, the student dropped to his knees and prostrated himself before his Housewarden, "Please! Please don't collar me! I beg of you!"

"Off With Your Head!!"

"Gah—!! NOO!!"

"Write me a 5000 word apology and tend to the weeds in the garden for a week straight and then maybe I'll consider removing that collar from your neck."

Seeing that the student was on the verge of tears and noticing that his breathing was becoming more unsteady, he made a 'tsk' sound, "I hope you know I'm not doing this because I want to, but because you broke the rules! If you hadn't, I would've done nothing. You will grow to become nothing in life if you fail to follow the rules. Understood?"

The student couldn't muster up any words, but he knew that if he didn't do anything at being asked a question from the Housewarden, the said Housewarden would start yelling at him for a response, so the student could only nod his head.

Taking note at this response, the Dorm Leader then turned around to address the two men that stood straight behind him, "Trey, Cater, escort this one outside the dormitory. Rule breakers have no place in here."

"Yes, Dorm Leader.."

Okay, so you know how you all were supposed to go back to the Ramshackle Dorm, well, you all made a detour.. To the library. Ironic, isn't it?

Why? Because Deuce wanted to pick up some books to study, mainly potionology books for memorization since that was what Mr. Crewel was currently expecting from you all.

The library hadn't closed yet, so you all thought you if you could quickly make your way there, you could squeeze in some time to scan the shelves for those books.

And it's not as if you were all in a rush to get back to your dorm.

Needless to say, once you all arrived, it took Deuce awhile before he found the books, apparently all the book titles were so confusing to him that he didn't know if they were potionology related at all..!
