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.
"Carriwitchet!"
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 should have known that, because when they were younger that was how he expressed himself as well. "That's rich. There aren't any Professors around. And you really think our female Prefect is going to report me if I do?"
Then he said something so bluntly honest she had to refrain herself from dropping her jaw. Adam Burn was not the person she remembered. Sure, he was not the kindest guy in the world when they knew each other, but he was never this bad. He was right... she did misjudge him.
But when he started to fly his hands all over the place she drew her head back. What was he doing? She took a step forward to stop his hands and let him know that she was not going to hit him and that he looked stupid. Suddenly, his hand, that was flying left to protect himself from a invisible attack smacked Selina dead in the face. The force of the hit was so hard that she stumbled back and fell to the floor.
*THUD*
There it was.Whenever he talked about prefects everyone had the same answer.Kurumi wouldn't mind too much,of course she wouldn't,she was in the middle of the firestorm,she wouldn't do much about it because she wanted to see some punishment on him.
When he began to randomly flail his arms all over the place an accidentally hit her to the ground with a loud thud that trembled the floor slightly.Looking completely flustered,he checked his back,hoping no one had seen anything an would report him,an too,fell to his feet.Grabbing her gently he said ina ginger tone.."Selina?Selina are you alright???I didn't mean to.I didn't..It was just an accident."His voice becoming more an more squeaky with each word he uttered from whatever breath he still had coming out of his mouth.His heart began to beat rapidly an he could feel his cheeks burning up at having hurt his 'sister' 'friend',he wouldn't never have done that.Not even in his state of mind recently.Looking up once again,Adam saw Gideon standing nearby.With huge popping eyes Adam asked in a faltering voice,Yo-you did-didn't see that,right?I didn't-I didn't mean to.Please..Please don't report me or something..It was all an accident..

Maxwell looked at the photograph for a few moments. "That's very admirable of You, Josie. The only person I look like in my family is my grandfather, the wizard one, not the muggle one. I feel strange about my family. they're not who they used to be, not my muggle side before i found out i was magic. If I wrote my Father and told him anything about Hogwarts he's think I was just weird." Maxwell looked disappointed. His eyes going from a dark brown to a slightly more red-ish mix. He didn't like talking about his family.
Josephine looked at the picture "Mom's sick so I don't want her to be sad" she smiled "I think it's funny how much me and Joseph look like our parents and Hikaru looks from a different family, yet he's more protective of me than Joseph, if I told him about any of you he would kill us all"

The fourth year turned to see Selina laying down on the floor and hurried over, dropping his bag off his shoulder and to the floor in the process.
"Selina!" he exclaimed, briefly noting the boy he wasn't familiar with standing by and not knowing what happened between them. But he was more worried for his friend. First Kurumi at the feast and now Selina.
"Are you alright?" he asked concerned when he was close to her and her companion.
Selina could hear a ton of voices over her head speaking to her. But she didn't want to open her eyes. She was humiliated. Adam Burn had knocked her off of her feet to the floor with one unintentionally slap. How could she have even let that happen? He had his guard up and she didn't. It was humiliating.
But then she differentiated the voice in her head and realized that the person who was directly over her was Gideon. HE was here? Ugh, how much worse could this get? He was going to think she was weak because she had gotten slapped like a girl.
She slowly fluttered her eyes open and said, "Hey there all... ow."

Gideon watches as the boy knelt down checking on the girl before he turned to him seemingly worried over something other then Selina. His words sending red flags up to the fourth year.
What? Had he done something to Selina?
"No I didn't see anything," he remarked wondering if he should keep an eye on him. "I'd be more worried about my housemate then getting in trouble though if I were you," he added before turning back to Selina as she responded. Getting someone in trouble could happen later once he was sure the girl was alright.
"Easier there Selina, " he instructed not wanting her to hurt herself more to show she was fine. Hesitating for a moment on whether he should kneel down as well, he opted to remain standing and meerly bend over not wanting to crowd her.
Josephine looked at the picture "Mom's sick so I don't want her to be sad" she smiled "I think it's funny how much me and Joseph look like our parents and Hikaru looks from a different family, yet he's more protective of me than Joseph, if I told him about any of you he would kill us all"

"Yeah, I might see If i can stay with my Grandparents this summer, They live in London and They're both Wizards."
Maxwell forced a smile. "But... it's not all bad, at home I have Helios and my Mum when she's home. And here We have each other!"

Maxwell felt his face as if that would help him see his face. "Yes, they do that when I'm angry or upset. I'm not sure why? Normally something having to do with My dad or Sisters." He said coldly.

Ryan came and entered the Gryffindor Common Room and sat on a seat in front of the fire.He stared into it,he missed his family.He started to daydream,He needed someone to talk to

Josephine looked at the boy who had sat next to her, he looked sad "Hello! I'm Josephine, are you okay?" she asked, twirling her purple hair.
"I like Trandfiguration too." Anna Smiled. "I find it entertaining."
" I enjoyed dressing up and painting ourselves as a clown in Transfiguration with those spells" Willam told Anna. ' I can't wait to the next Transfiguration class" William said to Anna. " How do you like Muggle Studies Class?" William asked Anna.

Adam nodded understanding what his housemate was trying to explain to him.At the very least,he hadn't seen anything so he wasn't in too much trouble,unless Selina had to go to the hospital an Adam had to explain himself to the nurse.But that was the matter of importance at the moment.All that mattered was Selina's laying body.All the history they had at the moment,everything they had been fighting about a few minutes ago escaped Adam's mind an he was purely focused on Selina's well being.
"Selina?Selina are you alright?Do you want me to lift you gently up to the couch or do you just wanna lay here for a while,on the rug,until you feel better?"He asked flustered but not as much as before.

What A Day.
Ronnie walked into the Gryffindor common room, feeling a bit exhausted. She flung herself on a chair and sighed..the chair was so comfy...she could just...fall........asleep.....
Before she knew it, her eyes were closed and she was wayy into a deep sleep.
THUD
Ronnie rubbed her eyes. "Huh?" she said, looking around. She was on the ground, she must have fallen off the chair while she was sleeping....sleeping. She fell asleep! She actually fell asleep..she chuckled. "Wonder what the time is.." she said getting up. She looked at her watch and her eyes popped. "Midnight? Blimey..I really shouldn't be here then." she said, but she still stayed in the Gryffindor common room. It felt good to be alone in there.....to just think through things. The peace and quiet (other than the crackling fire) was real nice. Before she sat down, she noticed Twirl and Scabbers curled up next to eachother on the chair. She smiled and moved them over so she could have room.
Josephine giggled "Why yes! We have eachother!" she said "And if you could go there it would be awesome! I live in London aswell so we could hang out! I think Hikaru is coming home for this summer, I will ask him when he answers me back"
Maxwell smiled. "I'll have to write My grandparents, they don't live far from Diagon Alley. They're wondeful, We could hang out all summer if i stayed with them." Maxwell said with a smile. "It's where I'm going for Christmas break. Maybe We'll see each other then too." Maxwell's mood completely changed the red in his eyes was now gone.
" You are welcome" William smiled." Good, maybe we can hang out at the treehouse and talk about baseball" William explained to Sage. " This is my second year" William told Sage. " Do you like any other sports than Quiditch?' William asked Sage.
An unatractive, confused look perched itself apon Sage's face
"Where's the treehouse? Has Hogwarts always had a treehouse?" Sage shook this off quickly to answer William's question, "Well, I've tried some Cricket with my grandad once but I never quite understood it. What about you, do you play as much sports as your dad?"
Maxwell smiled. "I'll have to write My grandparents, they don't live far from Diagon Alley. They're wondeful, We could hang out all summer if i stayed with them." Maxwell said with a smile. "It's where I'm going for Christmas break. Maybe We'll see each other then too." Maxwell's mood completely changed the red in his eyes was now gone.
Josephine smiled "That would be just so awesome!" she said, but was interrupted by her owl, Winged, bringing a letter "Oh! Hello there!" she took the letter and read it aloud:
Quote:
Dear Josephine,
Hey there sis! I'm missing you here, Utau is fine, she sends her regards, I hope you're having a great time in school with all your friends (keep the boys out of your life and we'll be just fine) I will be going home for summer, I want to see you with weird-colored hair,
Love,
Hikaru
Josephine stared at the letter wide-eyed, then looked at Maxwell "HE'S COMING HOME! I'm going to see him! He's coming home!" she jumped up and down, then sat down again, her face flushed from the excitement.
An unatractive, confused look perched itself apon Sage's face
"Where's the treehouse? Has Hogwarts always had a treehouse?" Sage shook this off quickly to answer William's question, "Well, I've tried some Cricket with my grandad once but I never quite understood it. What about you, do you play as much sports as your dad?"
" Actually. the treehouse arrived last term" William told Sage. "Cricket, very interesting, kind of like baseball" William said to Sage. " Quidditch right now but baseball, football and wrestling when I am older" William explained to Sage."So did you enjoy tryouts?" William asked Sage.
Adam nodded understanding what his housemate was trying to explain to him.At the very least,he hadn't seen anything so he wasn't in too much trouble,unless Selina had to go to the hospital an Adam had to explain himself to the nurse.But that was the matter of importance at the moment.All that mattered was Selina's laying body.All the history they had at the moment,everything they had been fighting about a few minutes ago escaped Adam's mind an he was purely focused on Selina's well being.

Selina tried to pull herself off of the ground a little bit, but when she moved the pain in her cheek suddenly hit her like a brutal force. Merlin, that really hurt. She tried to wiggle her jaw back and forth to try to put some of the pain to rest, but it just excited more pain. Her hand flew up to her jaw and held it in place, "Merlin, ow." She started to rub slow circles on her jaw.
Then she started to hear Gideon and Adam quibble a little bit, Gideon sounded less than pleased. But when she tried to move and Gideon told her to take it easy she sat back on the ground. She did not want to fight with him about this situation. It was embarrassing enough as it was, no need to embarrass herself more by putting up a petty fight.
Adam started to talk to her like the old times and Selina weakly shot him a glare, "I think you've done enough, eh? What was that for?" As she spoke a serious pain shot up through her jaw, "Ow!"
Josephine smiled "That would be just so awesome!" she said, but was interrupted by her owl, Winged, bringing a letter "Oh! Hello there!" she took the letter and read it aloud:
Josephine stared at the letter wide-eyed, then looked at Maxwell "HE'S COMING HOME! I'm going to see him! He's coming home!" she jumped up and down, then sat down again, her face flushed from the excitement.
"That's great, Josie! I'm so happy for you" He said with a smile then grabbed a piece of parchment and started scribbling something. "Can I barrow Your owl? Helios don't really deliver mail...I tried once, I put the letter in his beak and it went up in flames." Maxwell laughed remembering how dumb He'd felt.
" I enjoyed dressing up and painting ourselves as a clown in Transfiguration with those spells" Willam told Anna. ' I can't wait to the next Transfiguration class" William said to Anna. " How do you like Muggle Studies Class?" William asked Anna.
"OH! It's very interesting!" Her face reflected annoyance "I just don't have friends muggle. And I know very little about the world without magic. Only in books..." She smiled, "I'm like very much the classical muggle literature."
"That's great, Josie! I'm so happy for you" He said with a smile then grabbed a piece of parchment and started scribbling something. "Can I barrow Your owl? Helios don't really deliver mail...I tried once, I put the letter in his beak and it went up in flames." Maxwell laughed remembering how dumb He'd felt.
Josephine patted Winged and smiled "Sure, he's really nice" she then turned to Winged "This is Maxwell, please take his card where he wants to" she gave the owl some treats "There!" she said.
Arianna walked into the common room and took a seat by the fire. Re-reading her transfiguration book she hoped to perfect the two spells she had learned that day ('FELINTAS' and 'RISTARIS'); (as she had not been happy with her first attempt in the courtyard which became a bit of an embarrasment). Once again she tried, saying the spell under her breath and slowly her appearance began to change, but not the way she had planned. All she had done was change back to her usual self. 'I suppose its better than looking like an ugly goul, but still' Arianna thought as she closed her book. She saw some other girls leave the common room, it was quite and woundered why. Then she realised its about time she headed down to the Great Hall for dinner. Arianna left the common room in silence, her transfiguration book still clutched in her hands.

Jordan reached over and stroked the owl before it flew off. "He's a beautiful owl." he remarked.

Josephine watched as it flew away "Thank you! I chose him myself, well, actually he chose me, he sat in my shoulder as soon as I entered Eeylops" she giggled "Where do you live? Maybe we could all meet up in summer!".

Josephine smiled "I hope it! Winged is really fast so he will bring back the letter in no time!" she took Hikaru's letter and placed it in her bag, then took out a little golden box "Hikaru gave me this when I turned 5" she said and opened it, a beautiful melody came out "The name of the song is 'Akuma no imoto-chan' because I used to play pranks on him, it means 'Devilish little sister', Joseph has a silver one, but it plays a diferent song, Hikaru wrote the songs himself" she closed the box and smiled sadly.

Maxwell smiled at the thought of Josephine being devilish. "He'll be back soon...and hopefully He doesn't wanna kill Me." Maxwell laughed.
