Excellent stuff. Heh, Bugs. This task was inspired by J.'s OMFG GIANT BUG adventure. And suck on that, Huffle-Dor! Next thing from Akbar. Heh, maybe his team will win for once....

That was cool, J. I liked the giant bugs and Aries' commentary, and the ever-useful towels.

PJ and Capt walked over to Kobolos and he allowed him to participate, though they had to promise to put Captiosus in extra peril. That's how I'd see it.

I'll try to have the next chapter up either tonight (in about 2-3 hours) or tomorrow afternoon.(18-22 hours)
And Dupin and J., your stuff is brilliant. Mine will simply pale in comparison.

Yay, I got a katana!
Although, I didn't quite see the point of giving Luna the potion and then letting it wear off before she fought, since they didn't wait til any other potions wore off. So... yeah.
Although thus far, it seems that the story is naturally prejudiced against Huffledor since 3/4 of the writers are Slytherclaw. Kinda unfair, there... *glances at suspiciously* I'll be very disappointed if the whole story turns out to be an excuse to beat up on the Huffledors, especially since it started out so well...

Don't worry, Cel. 3/4 of the writers ARE Slytherclaw, yes, but I made sure it's fair and equal.

Lovely. The twists, such as the pre-battle drink and the different items make the story very interesting. Excellent job, Dupin and J. Celinra, you have great talent in making icons/avatars.

Here's the first bit of my chapter. I didn't post the whole thing because I'm a lazy sod and haven't written it yetI like to build stories slowly.
Part I
Ila stared into empty space. Well, not quite empty. There was a little sign saying “Jesus Is My Homie” above her. Suddenly Char leaned down, threw a comic at Ila’s head and went back up. Ila responded with a kick to Char’s mattress and Char’s snores suddenly filled the dormitory. As Ila pictured herself beating Robert, and cheering erupting throughout the Slyther-Claw crowd (The Huffle-Dors had mysteriously sunk into a hole) a smile crossed her face. She yelled out the infamous first line of The Book of Ila and rolled over, falling asleep. In her sleepy fantasy, a man with “Ila and Jesus are my homies” scrawled on his shaved head was pulverizing Robert, while Captiosus cheered him on, waving a copy of The Book of Ila. Char looked down, and happily began to throw little paper balls into the sleeping Ila’s head.
-------------------
Derik and Akbar were in the special “Beatles Shrine” they’d made out of a spare bunk, being emo; Snicket was in his bunk gurgling and drawing things in the air , whilst Pester yelled at him. Robert was alone, lying in his bunk, drawing a mustache on a picture of Ila. Soidanae strode up to him.
“Well. You’re in the next task.” He said.
Robert nodded. He knew it only too well. That morning, when Ila had been selected for Slyther-Claw, loud cheering had erupted. Yet, when his name was announced, Professor Celinra had grimaced a little, and the half-hearted clapping didn’t help either.
“ We need to win this time.”
Another nod.
Exasperated, Soidanae walked off, muttering curses under his breath. Robert fell asleep, listening to the sounds of “Hey Jude”, which were tumbling out from the Beatles Shrine.
--------------------
Sam sat in the teacher’s room, chatting with Kobolos.
“Are you positive that they’re safe?” Asked Kobolos.
“Suree. Pass the vodka. Hic.” Replied Sam.
“We wouldn’t want them dying or something. Mild pain’s acceptable, though. Especially for that Robert creature.”
“PASS ME THE DAMN VODKA.”
“I mean, really, he’s practically discovered new depths of stupidity.” Commented the impervious Kobolos.
Hiccupping slightly, Sam passed out.
-------
And Celly, I hope you don't mind that I used your "HuffleDor pride" thing. I think all the HuffleDors should. That'll show those sneaky SlytherClaws.

Interesting so far. And, uh, something. Liked the conversation between BSam and Kobolos.

Sam and Kobolos rock. We should make a spinoff starring then.

Good chapter, Akbar. I liked the weird descriptions of the various dormitories.

Nice one, Akbar.
And I'll be away for the weekend, so I've just changed the thread title to "PART FOUR OUT NOW." So just check the thread, even if the title is updated.
