Ooh, more coins. But wait! "Not just any coins, coins with the house colours on..." She said, the she glanced down at the map... the four coins were... "That's where the common rooms are... What d'you think that means?" she said, looking up at the Hufflepuff girl.

"And everyone else is throwing their coins into the fountain... should we do that?" she asked, fingering the little gold discs in her palm.

The older girl looked...scary/terrifying/ate kittens in her spare time. Yeah. I do she said, passing the map over to them as it started to change. Ooh. Funky. COLOOOURSS. Pretty colours.

She looked at each of the bags as they were produced, slightly mesmerised by their jewel colours before looking back to the map and trying to work out what was going on





Amy had been quiet for once in her life as she'd tried to work out the map, because at that moment, it made no sense whatsoever. None. Coins and a map. Coins and a map? Coins? Map? Made nooo sense. None. I dunno, she shrugged, but I do think we should chuck them in she nodded, watching others do that very thing. After all, what have we to lose?

"What is sleeping beauty by the way? People keep mentioning it... and something about spinny wheels and magic princes or something..." she trailed off, assuming it was a muggle thing. All the same, she still wanted to know...

"WAIT!" Aurora suddenly had an idea. "The coins on the map are flashing! Try and figure out what order, maybe that's the order they go in the fountain!" because most people seemed to have concentrated on the map a while before throwing in their coins.


Did it matter if they had house colors on them? What did matter was what Rora just said about the common rooms. Wait, seriously? For the love of Merlin, did they have to wander around to each common room!?

Yet, the others, they weren't doing that. Which was a bit of relief actually...

Staring at the map, her eyes flicked to each of the coins, and then the words. Make a wish. "Who needs to learn some respect now?" she muttered, glancing to Rora out of the corner of her eyes. She had something against Gryffindors? And how many Gryffindors did that include? Ignoring the talk about sleeping beauty, Evelyn turned her attention to the map once more.

...

Well alright, she was listening, and she was rather tempted to correct the young girl. Spinny wheels? PLEASE. Everyone knew sleeping beauty was about the girl dying after eating the apple a dragon gave her. Eesh.

Evelyn jumped slightly when Rora yelled out, and gave her a MIGHTY SCOWL. It was a nice thought though, so she couldn't really argue with her. "Might as well try it out."
