| | | Hufflepuff Common Room  Banner created by Lockhartian
Entering the common room through a still life painting near the kitchens, you will find the spacious room known as your House Common Room. Welcome! Your common room is your sanctuary. During your seven years here, your house will be like your family. The large room is designed around the fireplace, which sits in the very middle, and will more than likely be your favorite place on cold winter nights.
Flanking off and into the rest of the room, the room is furnished with plush armchairs, generally in clusters of two or four. There are also comfortable large couches that might swallow you up, if you're not careful. The wall decor is, of course, Hufflepuff house colors. There are also yellow and black hangings around the room.
A large solid wood table is set up to the far side of the room, the perfect place to study, and should you find yourself in need of inspiration, portraits of memorable Hufflepuffs such as Nymphadora Tonks, Cedric Diggory, and even Zacharias Smith, flying on his broomstick, line the walls around you.
Opposite, you will find two underground tunnels, each going a different way, to the right the tunnel will lead you to the boy's dorms, and to the left, the girl's dorms. |

Amethyst slowly walked into the common room. She looked around a bit and headed straight to the fireplace. She had just finished her book for the 34th time, and had nothing to do. She would often look into the fire for inspiration, but this time, oddly, found none what-so-ever.

" Well well, I was starting to worry about ya, Love. Come have a seat." Justin said as he patted the spot next to him on the couch. Quote:

Hogwarts RPG Name: Harrison Adam Butler Sixth Year | Remus Lupin ♥ Moony ♥ Loopy Lupin
Daisy walked sleepily into the common room, rather muddy from the flying she had been doing. Shoving her broomstick into a corner, she flopped into on of the seats which was empty. Several magazines and newspapers lay abandoned on the floor, and, checking they didn't belong to anyone around her, she picked one up. Opening a bottle of Dr Pepper, the amazing stuff, she took a swig and pulled out a quill, intending to do the puzzles and quizzes.
But Dr Pepper took control.
Several minutes later, a rather giggly Daisy drew a moustache on yet another picture, causing the people in them to glare at her or disappear behind the frame. Only Dr Pepper did this to Daisy, it made her so hyper, yet she loved it, and loved being hyper, so, being the person she was, she wrote to her parents and ask for some. To her excitement, several days later, 3 owls arrived carrying as many Dr Pepper bottles as they could carry, all for Daisy.

It was the best turkey sandwich she had ever eaten in her entire life. And she was sharing it with Justin, just how she liked it.
