| | | Gryffindor Common Room Gryffindor Common Room
The official home of the Lions, the Gryffindor common room, is found on the seventh floor of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Because the entrance to the common room is the portrait of the Fat Lady, Lions must know the password and speak it to the Fat Lady in order to get through. "Flibbertigibbet!"
Remember that word...and keep it a close secret, for it's the current password you'll need to speak in order for the Fat Lady to swing away from the hole and allow you entrance to Gryffindor Tower. Once you're lucky enough to crawl through, you'll find that the common room is a circular area full of squashy armchairs, tables, and a bulletin board. A window looks out onto the grounds of the school, and a large fireplace takes up one entire wall. It's the perfect place to relax and hang out after a long day of classes!
That is, unless you're in need of a nap or ready for a good night's rest. In that case, there are two doors leading off from the common room that open to spiral staircases. Boys dormitories are upstairs and to the right, while girls dormitories are upstairs and to the left.
For whatever reason you're here, make sure you take good care of your home away from home! There's bound to be a perfect, your Head of House, or maybe even a house elf lurking nearby! |

He grinned Selina's casual-but-pointed manner. Great I'm only confusing him Heather thought. That shot didn't count. "I want to be your girlfriend!" She blurted out slightly annoyed. And if he said, 'but you are my friend who's a girl' she was going to slap him. Her hand was now over the butterbeer with the potion halfway tilted.

"Lots happened since... then. I have been thinking about having the Denver's transfer me to Beauxbatons, Sabel. I don't think I should continue my education here. What with my parents, the Kennedy's, missing or what have you and all of the drama and stress of being here with the largest group of inconsiderate people I have ever met, present company excluded, of course, it is all becoming a bit much for me. I am judged so harshly around here... judged for behavior that, yes it wasn't acceptable to some, but it was due to my mental state. Something that, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't control. It is high time I let it all go. It is time I get away from these memories, I think. What happened tonight... That was because of my father. Things he used to do to me..." she said in a soft voice, so as only Sabel could hear her. She didn't lift her head back up, she stayed with her head tilted back staring into the fireplace. He hadn't heard any of this before. Why hadn't he heard this before? He knew about her family being less than...wonderful, but all of this? A deep-set frown of concern had taken full hold of his expression as he watched his friend, resting one arm across her legs and the other on the arm of the couch. It took him a long moment to find thought to respond to her words, to try and comprehend and process what she was telling him. "You...haven't told me this before." There was the hint of a question in the words, but not as an accusation or disapproval; it was simply that of concern. "Your, parents are missing?" His frown deepened as he watched her. "And who is giving you a hard time?" Besides himself, but that was warranted and he had got a hard time in return; it was almost mutual.

Selina laughed out loud when the blonde girl blurted out that she wanted to date Derian. Perhaps it was rude, but this girl was seriously desperate. Couldn't she tell he was uninterested? She had thought she had seen her down at the lake when Derian was with Elektra. Now she was sure.
Then her eyes caught a potion she knew well near a goblet she looked ready to serve him. Her cousin Darren had been using that potion on girl's for years. Maybe it was not her place to intervine because they had just met, but she was not going to let this blonde girl drug him.
"Derian, I know I shouldn't intervine... but that girl is about to slip you a love potion. Aren't you?" Selina said addressing the girl with her eyebrow cocked. Her friend Elektra would have her head if she allowed some person to hurt her friend...

Lexi smiled and patted the girl again. " Hey, anyway I can help I will be more than happy to," she said with a very sincere smile. She would, indeed. It seemed that some of her fellow lions, heck, fellow schoolmates, forgot what it was like to be a younger student here. It seemed like they didn't want to help the kids anymore. There were SOME that still wanted to and that made her smile.
" Not at all. I won't be needing it," she said with a small chuckle. She HOPED that statement wouldn't come back to bite her on the bum later. Quote:

A small log fell further into the fire sending a spray of embers upward. It was beautiful and oddly hypnotic. Sighing she lifted her head back to where she could see Sabel and gave a slight shrug. " There are certain parts of my life I have never shared with anyone, actually. I have never told a soul about my treatment as a child. Not until now. I have never even told Dylan the extent of it all," she said quietly.
Nodding her head she gave another shrug. " I spent most of the holiday trying to reach them... I finally went to Godric's Hollow and the house... was gone. I am sure there are protective charms set in place, but I obviously could not get through them. It scares me, but there is nothing more I can do. The Vorkosigan's and the Vorpatril's tried to help as well, but it turned up nothing in the end. I left the Denver's house because I was afraid that there was trouble afoot. I stayed in London most of the time... I just... don't know," she continued.
Furrowing her brow she shook her head. " I can't explain it, really. People just act like that person that I was is who I really am. Like... I am going to flip out any moment. And my relationships or former relationships seem to be a topic that people want to focus on. I just feel like no matter what I do, it will never change that marred perception of me," she replied flatly. When did she start caring what people thought? Recently. Apparently. Sigh.

So she was, her family was, in trouble? Hunted? Wanted? He wasn't sure, she was being strangely cryptic. Then again, it wasn't really his place to pry for details; she would give them if she wanted or considered them important. "I'm sorry about your family. Maybe...Tate can help? Or the Aurors? He can probably put in a word and see what can be dug up." He knew the man wasn't there for them to use him for personal gain or goals, but he was someone that cared deeply about his students. It was always worth a shot.
Reaching out, he tucked a strand of stray hair behind Lexi's ear. "And people shouldn't be judging you. We all make mistakes, and we all change and grow. If neither of us changed, I don't think we would be having this conversation." The topic of her relationships was of questioning concern to him, but given her current opinion on the constant inquires about them, he didn't think now was a good time to ask. "If they're being troublesome or bothersome, you can always send them to me. I'll set them straight." Yes, sometimes Lexi frustrated him beyond description, but she was still his friend.

"Derian, I know I shouldn't intervine... but that girl is about to slip you a love potion. Aren't you?" Selina said addressing the girl with her eyebrow cocked. Her friend Elektra would have her head if she allowed some person to hurt her friend... Derian was surprised by Selina's observation; but he stared at Heather intently and finally noticed her hand poised over one of the two cups of butterbeer. She was holding a half-way tipped phial filled with a distinctly pink fluid that filled him with dread in regards to the implications it held, " Did you really intend to force me to be your boyfriend with a love potion??" He didn't know what to think, but he was certainly not pleased by the turn of events. " I liked you and all, but I will definitely not be made to look a fool, nor will I be forced into a relationship like that with you or with anyone." The fact that people felt they had to resort to such drastic, life-altering methods rather than relying on their own charm disgusted him--and, in this case, especially because it was directed at him.
He felt his anger rising white-hot in him, and he did his best to mask it; he didn't want to have another exhibition of his temper, not here. He balled his fists and tried not to let people see how much he trembled with the force of his ire, " I can't believe you would do something like that to me, especially after I went to such lengths to cheer you up after your disaster with Tyler. I am my own person, with my own mind--are you really so desperate that you would take that away for your personal satisfaction? What, were you warming me up to the prospect just now? Or were you waiting for me to say the wrong thing before you let me drink that butterbeer?"
He was not mincing his words with her, he knew, but he could not help how betrayed he felt. " Who gave you such a thing, anyway??"

"If they're being troublesome or bothersome, you can always send them to me. I'll set them straight." Yes, sometimes Lexi frustrated him beyond description, but she was still his friend. Hearing him mention Tate and Aurors she shook her head vigorously. Sighing she sat up slightly and spoke in an even quieter tone. " Sabel... I can't ask an Auror to find them... they aren't exactly good people. Supporters of the Dark Arts aren't the type of people that Aurors want to return to society, you know. And I really have no proof that something bad happened. My dad owled me right at the start of summer and said that our trip would have to be delayed because my mum was under the weather... then the letters got shorter and mum wouldn't answer me at all... and then nothing. Not even from my grandmum and gradfather. I went searching and it is like they just vanished. I might be crazy... but I might be right. I can't go to authority with maybes and I thinks," she explained with a furrowed brow. It all made her head go wonky trying to think about it. " Maybe they decided they didn't want me around anymore. Wouldn't be the first time, you know."
She smiled softly, but it didn't quite touch her eyes, as he tucked the hair behind her ear. " I appreciate your friendship, Sabel. I think it's high time I just walk away from the nonsense and... I don't know. Perhaps it would be better to start fresh somewhere else? I mean, I know some people in France now. Including Monique. I wouldn't be alone," she made it all a sort of question. She really wanted Sabel's opinion on the matter.

He told me you'd like it because it would help you find your emotions about me. He told me you liked me. I didn't even know what it would do to you, but I still wanted to give you chance." She glared at the potion and threw it in the fire. "Stupid Rafe" She screamed. "He lied to me. He told me I had a chance with you." She started sobbing. Was she really this damaged?

She would not have stood by and allowed her to resort to such extremes even if she was not close with Derian.
Then she began to study his mannerisms when he was angry. She knew that anger well, she had seen Rafe react that way down by the lake when she and Elektra were talking to the brothers. But she had seen it elsewhere. Demitri acted like that when it got close to cycle. Her boyfriend was also very careful with his temper the same way that Derian was being. Could it be...
"Derian, are you okay?" Selina asked.

She choked back a laugh when Selina confronted the girl about her love potion. Some people were just so desperate. She grinned at Selina and looked back down at her book, still shaking from holding in her laughter. |

She smiled back at her friend and turned around and mouth, " Drama much? Talk to you in a minute."
She then turned back around to Derian where he was shaking with anger. That much was not good.

"Derian, are you okay?" Selina asked. Ignoring Heather entirely, he shook his head in response to Selina, " No, not entirely..." Not being able to prevent some of his inner-growl from seeping into his voice, he left it at that, catching the knowing tone of her voice. This girl was perceptive. He could feel the moon, and it was close to full. He felt close to how he felt on the night he killed all of that poor farmer's chickens. That same uncontrollable wildness felt like it was lying in wait for him to drop his guard.
He sent a dark glare Heather's way, " You, just give me my space for now." He had not forgotten that Heather had mentioned his brother; but, surely, Rafe would not have been a conspirator in something as demeaning as this. As distant as the two of them were, surely Rafe respected him enough to sink to such base offenses. As soon as he calmed down, he resolved to find his older half-brother and ask him about it.
Without another word, he turned on his heel and walked towards the farthest place from Heather that he could manage in the common room and sank heavily on an unoccupied chair. With a still trembling hand, he pinched the bridge of his nose and tried to think of something peaceful.

She tried to control herself as the other girl threw the potion in the fire and started screaming and crying. It was just so funny, but she couldn't help but feel so bad for the poor boy shaking in anger. Horrible, but funny. Elyon opened her book, becoming absorbed in the text once more. |

Heather wiped her tears and glared at Selina and her stupid giggling friend.
She stormed out of the common room and decided to go down to the lake. GREAT HEATHER! She screamed at herself. You met three guys who've treated you like a human being. One of them lied to you, the other hates you, and.. where was the other one? Oh well. Just leave him alone before something else happens. |

He could feel the moon, and it was close to full. He felt close to how he felt on the night he killed all of that poor farmer's chickens. That same uncontrollable wildness felt like it was lying in wait for him to drop his guard.
He sent a dark glare Heather's way, "You, just give me my space for now." He had not forgotten that Heather had mentioned his brother; but, surely, Rafe would not have been a conspirator in something as demeaning as this. As distant as the two of them were, surely Rafe respected him enough to sink to such base offenses. As soon as he calmed down, he resolved to find his older half-brother and ask him about it.
Without another word, he turned on his heel and walked towards the farthest place from Heather that he could manage in the common room and sank heavily on an unoccupied chair. With a still trembling hand, he pinched the bridge of his nose and tried to think of something peaceful. Selina watched him storm off to the other side of the room and watched him start to breath deeply. Unknowing if she should walk over to him she decided to go.
Plopping herself down next to him on the couch she waited for him to look more comfortable. When the time came she whispered, "Cycle being rough this month?"
Anticipating his shock she added, "Relax, my boyfriend's of a similar condition." She did not want to say werewolf. It was a harsh word that Demiri did not like and she assumed that Derian wouldn't either. "And if your wondering, I won't tell anyone. I've never told anyone about Demitri until now. He's in Slytherin."

Chris walked into the commonroom tired and sweaty, but happy that she had gotten some practice in. She spotted Derian sitting in a far, lonely edge of the room, obviously angry. It radiated from him. "Derian? What happened to you? Rafe?" she said, wondering if it was smart to approach him. He could be mad at her for storming off at the lake for all she knew.

He could be mad at her for storming off at the lake for all she knew. Derian was taken completely aback by Selina's words, but he did not have enough time to process and respond to them because of Chris's arrival. Nevertheless, he smiled at them both, " Yes, things are going roughly, Selina," He spoke vaguely enough that Chris would not be privy to the conversation that he wanted very much to continue with Selina, " and Chris, you just missed a girl trying to give me a love potion." He resolved, though, to get over his anger. He did not like the ferocity of the sentiment at all, and he was eager at the prospect of having another non-family member he could talk to. " Thank you both for your consideration." He managed to keep most of his emotions out of his voice, and he even finagled a weak smile to reiterate his determination at least, if not his good cheer.
He was glad Chris had managed to find him before he went to find her. And, again, Selina's news had done much to put the unpleasantness from just before well on its way out of his thoughts. " Please, Chris, this is Selina. Selina, this is Chris. I hate to be a bother, but could the two of you give me some distraction from my thoughts?" Sheepishly, he ran a hand through his hair.

But if he didn't want to tell her... he didn't have to. "Well... I still have a trunk full of your hair and you never told me what you planned to do with it. You up for finding something fun to do with it? Any ideas, Selina?" she said, happy to be a distraction. She was just glad to see him again. If she couldn't be the person he talked to, she needed a way to help him somehow.

Selina caught onto the tone in his voice. They would talk later and hopefully she could make him feel better. She always seemed to be able to help Demitri.
When he requested a distraction she replied, "Okay... um what classes are you most excited for?"

When he requested a distraction she replied, "Okay... um what classes are you most excited for?" " Actually, Elektra told me that she shared my interest in Potions. We were hoping to be study partners." Then, Chris's question registered and he grinned. He had forgotten completely about the hair stunt Rafe had pulled, " Obviously, since Rafe 'gave' it to me, I plan on re-gifting it. The only problem is how I should do so. I was hoping you could help me figure out the ideal method. Selina, you can totally help as well."
And, if it turned out that Rafe (in addition to beating Derian up at the lake), was ultimately responsible for the love potion, then his brother would soon learn that he was not some idle pup to be messed with.

And, what does he hate?" she said. All she needed was a few variables to get filled in and she had a perfect plan and perfect distraction.

Avery made her way into the Common Room. She looked around wondering where to sit. Avery smiled as she looked at the fire. She went over to sit in one of the chairs. Festus, her golden cat, came running down the stairs. He lept into Avery's lap and began to purr. Avery smiled as she petted his soft belly.

And, if it turned out that Rafe (in addition to beating Derian up at the lake), was ultimately responsible for the love potion, then his brother would soon learn that he was not some idle pup to be messed with. "Well, if it isn't my little baby brother?!" Rafe said as he bursted through the portrait hole. He could practically smell his brother's stench a mile away, it smelled musky with a hint of sulfur, probably from his science mum. "Are we feeling particularly lovey dovey today?!" he asked with an huge smile on his face. If Heather had given it to Derian, he had a feeling she would be near by, but given she was nowhere to be seen, maybe she was more mature than he thought and just talked out her feelings. Too bad, Rafe thought, he was looking forward to seeing his brother being a love sick pup. Rafe had been through it, and if it went longer than a day he probably would reverse it...keyword being probably. He watered down the potion anyways before giving it to Heather. It wouldn't have been too bad.

Something about the way he acted, like he was so much better than Derian, just made him one of those people that Chris always felt like punching in the face.
