| | | 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. "Oddsbodikins!"
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. |

I got the Death of Priam and the tales of the Venatrix."
Selina was about to retort when she realized CeCe's train of thought was logical, "Yeah I guess that's true. It's just not my place to talk about it. You understand. I mean if you two ever become friends," which Selina highly doubted given the circumstances, "than she can tell you about the finite details. I just feel uncomfortable disclosing any information that is not mine to share."
"So... how are you liking Hogwarts so far?" CeCe nodded understanding how Selina didn't want to gossip about anything she didn't have sure facts on-CeCe would be the same as her. Well the Wizarding World is very different...But I like how Hogwarts looks...But I have to explore more to get a feeling of the place and people I must become friends with- or else I'm going to have una quiet life en Hogwarts.." CeCe teased herself near the end.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Lucas Hawthorne Sixth Year | Hello, Daddy! Hello, Mom! I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb! Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie Walnut began to purr VERY loudly. More than was really necessary just to flaunt the fact that he had made the fat orange cat's minion worship him. Few could resist his stubby legs and fluffy fur - which he had to give his Mistress credit for because she brushed him every morning and night. Eyes flicking up towards the other cat, Walnut began pawing at the floor. What's new kitty cat?
"You've read the Aeneid as well? Does that mean you have also read the Odyssey? I just think Ancient Greek literature is so interesting and telling. Many contemporary authors have been inspired by it," she chirped nodding.
She frowned slightly when he asked about the book belonging to her brother. "His high school classmates burned it," she said softly. "My family were seen as outcasts and not welcome in the town I grew up in because we were different...and I don't mean because we were witches and wizards. I didn't know I was one until two weeks before my first year began." She paused and found that she was finding it much easier to talk about these things now that she wasn't actively trying to hide them. "My mother is non-magical and Japanese. My father is a pureblood and English. Foreigners are frowned upon in my town....and people were very cruel." Hmph. Two could play at this game. Diego glared more at the inferior cat and made his way into the boy's lap. Now he would have no choice but to pay attention to him instead. Diego looked down smugly. Ha. How about that?
When Diego jumped onto his lap, Lucas's hand drifted away from Walnut and back to Diego. It was an absentminded gesture. He meant no offense to Walnut.
"I've only read a children's version of the Odyssey," Lucas said, shrugging slightly. "It obviously left out some of the gory details. But I have a general idea of it. I've been meaning to read the real thing someday." He nodded. When Kurumi mentioned how her family was treated, he said, "That's terrible. Why would people act that way?" He genuinely didn't understand. Did some people just never learn manners or something? Quote:
Originally Posted by ArianaBlack Nika nodded eagerly. "Yeah I have! I like the last one in the series the best," Nika said enthusiastically. She loved the last book because she loved messed up Peeta. She couldn't explain why, but in that book he was her favorite. "It's such an interesting book! Never read anything like it in my life." Maybe because she didn't read many books... but definitely a very original series. "So who's your favorite character in it so far?" Nika was curious. Her sister had read the book and replied "Katniss" easily. Everyone liked different people so she was curious as to what Lucas would reply with. "It really is great," Lucas agreed enthusiastically. "I'm not sure which book is my favorite... I think the second one might be, but I love them all. As for my favorite character? I don't really know. I like Haymitch... I don't know. It's too hard to choose! Who's yours?" Quote:

"I don't have much experience with Virgil other than the Aeneid," he said. "Well, and Dante's portrayal of him in the Inferno, but I'm not sure whether that counts." He chuckled lightly. "Um, I'm Lucas, by the way."

Besides Nika was just too young to understand love. "So other than read these books what else do you like to do?" Nika asked.

I actually just put up the sign-up list if you decide to give it a try."
Turning his attention back Walnut as the cat responded, he smiled at the positive reaction. "I'll take that as a yes," the seventh year said with a laugh as Walnut nudged him in the arm and he obediantly continued to pet the feline until he rolled onto side before going to investigate another feline. " I need more confidence on a broom before I even start to seriously consider trying out," Kurumi giggled nervously as horrible images of her getting tangled up in a goal post and hanging by her crimson Gryffindor uniform blinded her for a moment. However, she couldn't deny that being on the team with Simon during his last term wasn't appealing.
She was going to miss her big brother lion when he left. Not to mention that playing Quidditch WOULD emotionally bring her closer to Adam since he loved the sport so much.
" I'll think about it some more," she said shyly looking back up at Simon. Quote:

Fine then, he would just get attention from HIS Mistress. And he did, by jumping back on her lap and rolling onto his tummy for a scratch.
Giggling, Kurumi began petting Walnut before continuing her conversation with Lucas. " You really should. It was fascinating." Then her smile faded a bit at his next comment. " You know how there are wizards who frown upon those who are not of pureblood status? It is essentially the same mentality." Quote:

Selina came flying out from wherever it was she had come from, showing off her Qudditch nimbleness and plopping herself right next to her on the couch.
Blinking with surprise, Kurumi merely stared at her friend and then back to Lucas.
...
" You know Latin?"
Shaking her head. Kurumi decided to take it upon herself for proper introductions seeing as Lucas had already started.
" Lucas, this is Selina. She is a second year and made the Quidditch team as a first year," she explained gesturing to her red head friend. " Selina, this is Lucas. A trasnfer student and 5th year."

Adam came along and then he explained to me what I had...I guessed I was a witch from what he said.." CeCe answered.
That day had scared the living daylights out of her. Knifes flew across the air washrags began to spin rapidly over a burning fire on the oven, which had turned itself on...

Tayla decided she wanted to send a letter to her parents, and remembering the Chocolate Frog Heather had given her the night before, wanted to give it to her little sister April.
Quickly scribbling a message for Zara, Ari, and William from her room upstairs, she ran back down the common room and left a note on the table next to the cookies Kurumi made. Zara, Ari, Will: Gone to the Owlery. Meet you at Lachlan the Lanky in a while? Then we can head for the Great Hall and Black Lake. ~ Tayla
Hoping they'd find it, she left the common room and headed to the Owlery.

Kurumi wasn't sure she knew what Herbew was to be honest, but the notion of Selina having a jewel embedded inside her body disturbed her greatly and it showed on her face as her jaw dropped. " What sort of jewel do you have in you that makes you speak three languages?" she asked perhaps a little too naively. " I only know Japanese and English, but I would love to learn another."
Just as long as swallowing a diamond wasn't involved. Quote:

Well, there were people who probably did care about those things, but it was best not to bring that up at the moment. You laugh now Garfield...but just wait until I pee in your human's shoes... Walnut stood up and made sure to present his rear end to the other cat before curling up in a ball once more.
" Hogwarts is one of the best things that ever happened to me," she chirped. " I hope that you grow to love it here as much and me and many others do. And you really should spend some time in the library. There are so many different books to read and other worlds to explore." And people assumed that she was going to the library simply to study and do research.
Well, that was probably about 95% of her time spent there, but the other 5% was doing some casual reading.

Magic and Nika just don't go together. At least, not very well. "Well I didn't really go anywhere. I didn't see anything other than the view from the plane. I was only visiting a friend at a huge house they had there. We didn't get out of it. But it was still really exciting because like I said it was my first time out of England!" Hogwarts excluded. "It was serious fight, but hopefully she will forgive me for what I had to do." It wasn't her fault though. It was something big to ask of Nika. "She's 10, but she's turning eleven soon." Nika sighed wishing her sister would just understand. "Well she's not Hogwarts age yet, but she couldn't go anyways. She's not a witch." "She's great! How's my awesome younger Gryffie buddie?" Nika nudged Willie with her elbow, but lightly. "And you are too kind." Nika replied. Nika wasn't sure what to add to the last bit. Rex was like her brother even if they were the same age it would just be weird. "Well I'm sure Rex will find another girl. A better one who will stay committed to him until the very end." She nodded slowly. "Oh and I sent him a letter! It took me a while to get an owl to take it, but I sent it in the end!"
Nika skipped around looking for someone to talk to. She was hoping to meet some older students because most of her friends were either third years or younger. She noticed someone sitting alone by the fire and couldn't let them sit by themselves. "Hi! I'm Nika Adler and- Oh my goodness! Is that the Hunger Games?" She couldn't see the title, but she just knew the look of the book. She loved the series. Nika normally didn't read very often because why read when you have movies? BUT when there is a very good book she can't pass up the opportunity. " Glad she is great" Willaim told Nika. " Your awesome buddy is doing just fine" Wiliam said to Nika, " Rex will love the owl from his great freind" William explained to Nika.He just might find the right girl this time" William smild.

Yes. I sm trying out for the Quidditch team" William said to Tayla. "What about you?" William asked Tayla. Quote:

Quickly scribbling a message for Zara, Ari, and William from her room upstairs, she ran back down the common room and left a note on the table next to the cookies Kurumi made. Zara, Ari, Will: Gone to the Owlery. Meet you at Lachlan the Lanky in a while? Then we can head for the Great Hall and Black Lake. ~ Tayla
Hoping they'd find it, she left the common room and headed to the Owlery. William read the note. He is off.

Looking up, she saw Leo-Alix walking past on his way to the boys dorms waving the letters at her blowing kisses. Ella flipped her hair again, trying to get it not so messy... 'How am I expected to be mature? I'm surrounded by hooligans!'. Ella laughed. That was the word her Mother often used to describe all 6 of them. Zara stared as the two playfully teased each other. She smiled for a while, but then after a few moments, Zara sighed. Where was her brother? Her brother who'd protect her, look after her, tease her? "That's okay, at least you all get to be together." That sounded wrong, it's too serious for the current conversation. She was about to say something else, but Zara couldn't think of anything more to say.
She sank back in her chair and closed her eyes for a while, not wanting to be disturbed. Quote:

Flinging his head up so he was now in sitting position, the first year whirled his head round to face Zara. He stared at her, in utter disbelief, as if completely oblivious to what had just happened. "WHAT." Again?! Zara's heart jumped just as she did too. 'Is he prone to danger? Or simply a magnet of hurt?' Standing in front of Matt, she knelt down next to him. "Again? Honestly, what is wrong with you? Do you have some problem about not getting yourself hurt or choked to death?"
Oh. OH. OH. It was because of the teasing. 'Hmph, should have known better, then.' She grunted as she stood up and went back to her seat. "Gee, Matt. Take a joke." Quote:

Being nervous to the point of feeling sick, but also being overwhelmed with excitement to the point that you feel like you will burst."
Kurumi looked down at Walnut and could practically see his kitty ego growing with all the compliments he had been getting over the past few hours. She felt very bad for whatever first year managed to offend him and found a rather unpleasant surprise when they put their shoes on the next morning. "Walnut is a he....and a king in his own right," she giggled scratching the cat behind the ears. BAM! Zara smiled, "Took the words right out of my mouth." Then, giggled. Finally, someone who understood exactly how she felt. "Have you met any interesting people at Hogwarts? Well, yeah, I mean there are a lot. But I mean, the really interesting ones, with totally different and unique background and life and personality?" "He is...kingly." Zara smiled. She had always wanted a pet. All kinds of pets to keep her company back home. And a cat, a dog, a rat, a bird, an owl (which she has now), a fish, an eagle, a phoenix, all kinds of animals! "You know, I've always wanted a pet cat. But, when mum said I needed an owl to make sending letters easier, I agreed right away. Not that I don't like my owl. I love Eirwen, of course. She's the best." Quote:

She let him off her shoulder and he fluttered to the table nearest them. Elle walked over to him, and fed him a few more treats. She looked at Zara and said, "Shall we introduce the two birds?" "Hi there Roman!" she petted the owl on the table. "Sure, let's go. Shall I go get Eirwen from upstairs and bring her down?" Zara asked, not sure where the right place is to introduce them. Quote:

Hoping they'd find it, she left the common room and headed to the Owlery. Zara spotted a note near the cookies. Thinking it was another from Kurumi, she decided to go and check it out. Oops, it was from Tayla. Zara scanned the note.
Alright, she was on her way.

Scary female big people were. A. No no. The thought made him shudder. "You wanna know about...me?" he said, blinking. It was a question he'd expected to hear at the beginning of a conversation, when you'd just met someone. Like in the Great Hall at all the first years first feast. All that exchanging of names and bloodlines. But no one had asked him yet. He hadn't thought it weird, in fact, he'd quite enjoyed not having to spill his most riveting life story. He fidgeted, thinking. "Well, I live on a farm with my mum - who's a witch - and my Pa - who's a muggle - and my little sister: Karen. I've also got two older brothers: Harry and Kieran - twins - but they travel lots so I don't see them very often...Which is pretty lucky." he said, staring after Leo who had just whacked Ella over the head with the letters, and amused expression on his face. "Wish I'd thought of that." he said, smirking at her. He shrugged. "That's pretty much it...Pretty interesting, dontcha think?" he said, grinning, blushing slightly at his lack of..well, interestingness. It wasn't his fault. He was just a normal kid. A kid who could do magic... Ok. He was just a normal wizard who was also a part-time farmer. Just chillin' with his sheep. Nothing wrong with that. Ella smiled, nodding. She didn't miss his reaction when Leo walked past. 'He won't hurt you!' Ella laughed. This kid needed to toughen up.. She sighed. 'Twins.. I know how you feel there.' Ella pushed her fringe back again. Why did it keep moving... Gah 'Oh wow, a farm? That's cool!' Ella only went to the horse yard when she went to see Prince.. and that wasn't really a farm apart from when the farmer kept cows for a bit...
Ella felt up her sleeve, and took out her wand. She looked at it. 'I can't wait for lessons...' Ella grinned. Quote:

"MAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTT AND ELLLLLLAAAAAAAAALALALALALA~" Then Zara giggled, and started to whistle, acting all innocent. She was smug. Hihi.

One of my first proper friends here at Hogwarts..' Ella saw the light spilling in through the window as she sat in the Common Room. 'Well.. I'm gonna take a wlak around.' Ella smiled, she didn't know what was wrong with Zara, and she obviously didn't want to tell her.
Standing up, Ella then saw Henry trotting down the stairs. He came to a stop at her feet, meowing and clawing her ankles. 'Ok, ok stop!' Ella bent down to scoop up the little cat, and placed him onto her shoulder.
Smiling, Ella waved as she climbed through the Portrait Hole.

There was something wrong with herself, she didn't know what. 'Zara you're supposed to make friends, not make them feel bad about you.' Oh well, Ella was gone. Zara probably bored her or annoyed her in some way. UGH. ZARA, WHAT ON MERLIN'S BEARD IS WRONG WITH YOU?!
She rocked back and forth, still holding the same position. She needed rest. Some quiet time, maybe. Probably she was acting all weird and strange because it was her first time away from home and she didn't know how to react to people. She sighed and sat up straight. Maybe a little nap would do her good. Zara closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair.

Heh...
Heheheh...
With his usual confident and i-own-this-place demeanor, Josh walked in the Common Room, that usual content smirk of his glued on his face. At first the seventeen year old boy stopped and looked around to see who was or were currently spending their time here right now. Hmmm hmm hmmm. Of course there were people he knew as usual but also...there were people, firsties, he did not know.
Coolness!
Approaching his favourite couch before the fireplace rather coolly, he yawned without bothering to hide it or else right before jumping on the couch and settling himself down in it comfortably. Yeaa, this was his couch so you others had better stay away from it.
Taking his scarlet and gold tie off, he rested on the couch peacefully, slowly closing his eyes. Mmmm.

She could tell he was waaaay older than she was, not really the type Zara would be talking to. So, instead she just watched him, eyes closed, resting on the sofa.

Just as long as swallowing a diamond wasn't involved. Selina put her first s'more in her mouth, but began to choke when Kurumi asked her what jewel she had in her stomach. For several minutes she was hacking trying to get the s'more out of her throat. After one final cough Selina was clear and could breath again. Then instead of taking deep breaths she began to laugh hysterically. Her body began to rock back and forth with laughter.

That day had scared the living daylights out of her. Knifes flew across the air washrags began to spin rapidly over a burning fire on the oven, which had turned itself on...

He had long dark hair, and Tayla liked boys with long dark hair. "He's older than me I'm sure," she thought. Tayla groaned. It was fun sometimes, but she didn't want to like boys just yet. It made her confused and unfocused and more clumsy than she already was sometimes. "Great...I have a crush in Hogwarts." Tayla forced herself to look at the fire instead, but after a few seconds, found herself staring at the boy again. "I wonder what his name is..." she thought.
