Which is why today, she was only taking a brief break from a Transfiguration paper to take a stroll around the common room and the walls of books. How amazing was it was their common room was almost like it's own library of sorts!?

She'd been looking over the shelves, when an aged book caught her attention. Always a lover of the vintage, she'd eagerly reached for it only to yelp in surprise when the wall moved, revealing a secret space behind. Mouse didn't notice the occupant right off the bat, her formerly surprised noise of surprise turning into one of delight as she stepped into the little nook and glanced around at even more books. "Oh this is certainly exciting!" She had lamented to herself, doing a quick twirl before catching sight of one of the seventh years she'd met the first time. "Oh! Raj! Hello!"

Raj had picked out a random tome and gone to sit down on one of the pillows when he heard the secret door being opened once more. Curious who it was, he found himself smiling as Mouse made her appearance. The seventh year stayed quiet to let her just absorb the room as it was clear from the look on her face and the sound that had escaped her that it was her first time within after having found the surprise. “Hello,” he finally remarked, echoing her greeting once she had noticed and acknowledged him.

“I see you have found out the secret…” he mused with a chuckle. It wasn’t a hard one, not like the riddles that sometimes guarded the Ravenclaw Tower, seeing as the book kinda did stand out if one was paying attention. But it wasn’t found by everyone who graced the common room. “Welcome to the quieter side of the common room.” Ravenclaws may be studious but they still generated noise, especially excitable first years of which there certainly seemed to be a lot this term.
