OUR C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E-S-O-N-G SONG! quite well.. yes, he was quite proud of his spelling skills.. and he hummed along to the rest being unsure of the words. Maybe he'd get it on the next go. He chuckled lightly at the end.. it was a kind of fun and silly song but it seemed to lighten the mood a bit.. and that was exactly what they needed. Especially to put the younger ones at ease. "Do you know any more?" he asked Mick. Or maybe they could just sing that one again..

He smiled warmly at Eliza as she came to sit by him. The boy felt compelled to look out for the younger girl and figured if she sat near him, she might feel a little less distressed about the situation. Not that he was very confident about it himself.. but he thought he hid it well. Ethan thought for a moment about her question. He really had no idea what was going on and the thought that this was just the latest string in a series of bizarre occurrences was rather unsettling. Still, he didn't want the younger kids any more worried than they were. "I'm sure it's just like the prefect said.. The castle is playing some sort of joke on us." And he wouldn't be surprised given the odd sort of things he had seen happen the past few months.. but he had a funny feeling that wasn't it.

He glanced around the area looking for any of the Claws he knew somewhat well - Cora, Elliot, Taylor. No sign of any of them.. he figured they weren't in the common room when it happened. He turned back to Eliza and gave her a reassuring smile. "Once Professor V gets here, I'm sure he'll sort everything out." Yes, adults usually had the answers.



Ethan seemed pretty confident that everything would be okay, so Eliza thought maybe she was over-reacting. She put a small smile on her face to show him that she was trying to believe him. "I hope so..." She still thought it was all very strange. She hoped he was right about a professor coming to help soon. Hopefully anyone with information would come soon anyway, she didn't really care who it was. Come to think of it, she wasn't sure she knew who that man was, that Ethan mentioned. "I'm not sure if I've met Professor V yet. What's he like?" Sitting here not knowing a single thing was driving her crazy. Ok, if we are all out of our common rooms like that Slytherin girl told us, that means... What does it mean? Does someone want us all to be really tired tomorrow? If we're all tired...maybe we will be down on our guard. But for what? She was beginning to wonder where Cora was, but there were a lot of students outside the door so she really could be in there amongst them. She was small after all. She drew a sharp breath when the thought that maybe Cora had been banished somewhere different from everyone else crossed her mind. She hoped she was all right.

The first year pulled out her sketchbook and began making a list of what she knew to try to help figure this out. Her mind would be swimming in it all anyway, so she thought she might as well get it on paper.

SPOILER!!: Sketchpad Notes

-Missing brooch
-Arithmancy room flooded
-Kicked out of the common rooms and dormitories
-Professor Lafay is really sick
