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. The entrance to the common room is the portrait of the delightful Fat Lady, and in order to gain entrance to their home away from home, Lions must know the password and speak it to her.

This terms password is ‘Angel’s Trumpet’.

Be sure to remember those words...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 to enter Gryffindor Tower. Once you're lucky enough to scramble through, you'll find that the common room is a circular area full of squashy armchairs and tables. To the side of the common room you will find the study tables and bookshelves equipped with all that you could need in order to complete your homework assignments, as well as the noticeboard for classes and other school announcements.

A window looks out onto the grounds of the school, and a large fireplace takes up one side of the wall. It's the perfect place to relax and hang out after a long day of classes. You are likely to find the latest edition of the Gryffindor Gazette on the central tables just waiting to be read. It’s always good to stay informed with your house and school news.

If however you are in need of a nap a good night's rest then 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. Be sure you don’t go breaking any of the rules by attempting to go up the wrong staircases. Boys don’t stand a chance of beating the enchanted staircase, and frankly girls should know better.

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 or your Head of House lurking in the shadows.

Anyone? VM me.
 
"Angel's trumpet," Lilly said, entering the Gryffindor common room. Looked like she was the first one there. It was great to be back to Hogwarts. As fun as Rupert's was, Hogwarts was home. She sat in one of the armchairs, Smartie jumping onto her lap. The second-year stroked her kitten, staring into space. What could she get Violet for her Birthday? Would she get on the quiddich team? Not important things like last year's worries. That was horrible. But it turned out not so bad in the end. It didn't stop Violet from locking herself in the Hufflepuff dorm.

"Angel's Trumpet," Jezz said to the portrait. It swung open and with a tiny tired smile of thanks she walked into her new home. It was beautiful. Nothing like she ever imagined it to be. She took a seat on one of the comfy looking chairs not ready to go and find her bed just yet. It was turning out to be a whole lot better than she ever expected and what she really wanted to do right then was relax.

"Hi there Fat Lady. Nice to see you again," Tayla smiled. "Well anyway...Angel's trumpet." The portrait swung open and she went inside. Oh how she missed the familiar surroundings of the Gryffindor common room! Looking around, she found she wasn't the first one to arrive. She sat near the fireplace and smiled at the girls sitting nearby.

"Hi there," Tayla greeted. "I'm not sure if I've seen you around before. Are you a first year?"

Tayla spent most of her time cooped up in a quiet corner of the library last year, so she barely knew anyone younger than the third years.

The other girl Tayla saw kept looking around the dormitory. She recognized the amazement in her eyes. "This is definitely a first year," she thought.

"Hi! I'm Tayla," she said with a smile. "What's your name?"

Jezz looked up at the girl that addressed her and gave her a smile, "I'm Jezzabelle but everyone calls me Jezz." She really need just to introduce herself as Jezz...but then people would never know her full name and she liked her full name...it was just a mouthful for some.

"That's a nice name. Jezzabelle," Tayla said. "You can call me Tay if you want. So, how are you liking it here so far?"

"No, second-year," Lilly said, dreamily, not really paying much attention to the girl talking to her, but still listening. How didn't the girl know her? It was Violet that hid in her room for most of last year, not Lilly. "I'm Lilly," she greeted, remembering her manners. "And you are?" she asked. The girl was sure she'd seen this girl last year, somewhere in the libary. Only once, and they hadn't talked, but she was sure that the girls name was what? Tulip? Tilly? Tayla was it. "I don't know why you haven't seen me. I was here all of last year. My twin was the one who locked herself in the Hufflepuff dorm, not me," Lilly shrugged.

"I love it," Jezz said smiling. "It's everything I thought it would be and so much more. My mom and dad went here. The only thing is my dad never did describe the common room to me and he was in Gryffindor....I'm kinda glad he didn't though because this is awesome." She looked down and realized she was ranting. "What year are you in?" She couldn't recall if the girl had said it already. Short term memory loss much?

"I'm Tayla," Tayla replied. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend. I probably did see you but I don't think we've ever talked, have we? My mind was mostly on...something...last year."

Tayla shrugged. She had spent most of her time at the library trying to figure out the secret of her grandmother's locket. Aside from studying at least. And she still hadn't found out much.

"I'm trying out for the Quidditch team this year. I need more fresh air," Tayla laughed a little. "You? Oh...and, if you don't mind me asking...why did your twin lock herself up?

"I'm a third year," Tayla replied. "My dad's a muggle, but my mum went here, too. She was a Gryffindor. Played for the Quidditch team even. Chaser. You play Quidditch?"

Jezz nodded, "I play with my family, mainly my older cousins. Beater." She enjoyed it more than anything else. The freedom she felt on a broom was better than any other.

"No, it's alright. I'm not offended," she said. It took a lot to offend Lilly Deluise. It was very easy to get her to lose her temper. Something. That's what Rose said when she was trying to keep it quiet that their mum had died last year.

"Yeah, me too. I was in the hospital wing for the tryouts last year. Me being clumsy again," Lilly frowned. "Because our mum had died and our dad couldn't look after us so we were going to be put in a muggle orphanage. Then my older sister's best friend's brother was willing to look after us in the holidays. He's a wizard. Violet still stayed in her room," she said, as if it was the simplest thing inthe world.

"That's great!" Tayla replied. "My grandfather taught me a little, when he was still alive. He coached the Tutshill Tornados once. What subject are you looking most forward to?"

"I'm so sorry," Tayla said, sad about Lilly losing her mom and at the same time, trying to catch up with everything she said. "My grandfather died, too, shortly before I received my Hogwarts letter. So...Violet's the name of your twin. And erm...will you be trying out again for Quidditch this year?"

"Cool," Jezz said smiling. She began to think of her grandfather and she looked away. It was hard not to miss him sometimes, even harder being here at Hogwarts. "I'm looking forward to Herbology. I even brought some of my plants her with me because my parents don't know how to take care of them." That and they were never home. Which reminded her to actually find out where to put them. She'd have to go see Professor Bentley soon enough or else they wouldn't make it much longer.

"Herbology isn't my best subject to be honest."

Tayla stretched her arms. "I'm getting pretty tired. I think I'll go to bed in a while. See you around?" Tayla smiled. "And I hope you have a great year."

Tennessee climbed up to the Gryffindor tower only to find out the password seemed to have slipped her mind due to the bouncing and jumping and running up the staircase. "Merlin!" she gasped as she reached the portrait of the Fat lady. She grinned at the portrait as it asked for the password. How's she gonna enter their common room? She couldn't even wait to lie on her bed. "Wait a sec," she said as she thought of it. "Kurumi told us about this, hmmmm." Tenn scratched her head. w minutes have passed and the fat lady got bored waiting she fell asleep. Uh-oh!

She started flailing her arms and jumped up and down the corridor. "I know those words. C'mon," she muttered to herself. the fat Lady even woke up due to the racket she had been making and is looking at her with a raised eyebrow. "Oooh.. ohhh i know it," she said as she run back near her. "Angel's drum," she beamed as she waited for the door to wing open. The Fat lady smiled and frowned. "Please just let me in, i really want to get inside now," she begged. The fat lady shook her head and even asked her if she's really from Gryffindor. She nodded and nodded, "yes..yess Yesss," she said trembling. "It's just that i am not really good in remembering things like those especially not when i ate too much sweets," she blabbed again. She covered her mouth to stop herself.

then she made another attempt, "Was it Angel's Lire? Or something like that?" she asked. "Was it..." she said hopelesslyy. "Ohhhh.. Could you just please give me a clue? Even just one?" she begged. "Please? Please pleaseeeeee," she said bouncing in front of the painting. This is mad. Totally mad.

Can someone help her in. Daiiiiiiisssssyyy!!!!

She grew tired and sat beside the portrait as it may swing open when someone comes out or if a Gryffindor goes in. But she never stopped guessing, "Uhhmmm," she bit her lip. "Is it Angel's lake? Fruit Cake? Chocolate frog?licorice wands? Angel's wings?" The fat lady just kept on saying No! No! No! No! No! No! NO! NO! No! NO! NO! NO!

Jezz smiled, "Bye Tay." She continued to sit there and relax once more. She would get to the plants soon enough, but for now she would relax.

AS if she has ESP, Daisay appeared around a corner. “Merlin’s beard,” She said clapping her hands to her ears in an exaggerated fashion. It was quite now, and Daisy took her time looking around “What was all that racket! Did you see who was making it?”

She walked up to Tennessee scratching at her leg, just bellow the knee where her wool socks ended. A red spot was there as if Daisy had spent a good portion of the feast scratching at it. “What are you doing out here Tenn? Is the Fat Lady missing from her portrait?”

She waited not long enough when help came around to the rescue. Phew! Tennessee felt relief when she looked up and she saw Daisy. Her eyes smiled and she got up immediately ready to crush her into her suffocating hug.
Rackets? Were she that loud? "nope, I heard no one and nothing," she said shrugging.

"She did left,." she said as she glanced back at the Fat lady and stuck out her tongue. "No i was just kiddin'," she snapped as she looked again at Daisy. "Thank goodness you're here." She started twirling her hair and beamed at her friend. "I forgot the password.. but it's just at the tip of my tongue and i can't just spill it out," she told her. For sure She's gonna be scolded.

Really? Already? Wow, this was going to be a long year in that case for Tennessee. She wondered if Tenn’s sugar intake might be affecting her brain and resolved to keep an eye on her younger friend, well, as much as possible.

“You’re lucky. I was going to head up to the Library first, but I think that Astrid would kill me if he had to stay penned up any longer.” Astrid was her chameleon-newt, who, like Tenn, had a panache for sweets. She’s probably have to give him a piece of licorice for missing the banquet this year.

Daisy walked up portrait of the Fat Lady. “Hello. Have a good summer did you? Enjoy dinning with the Bavarian Monks on the solstice? They always have good insights on the uses of maiden’s weed…” The Bavarian Monk’s portrait was located on the 5th floor near the stairway that lead to the clock tower. Daisy chatted a few minitues more with the Fat Lady and then realized that Tenn was giving her a look of ‘If I don’t get to sleep soon, you’re going to have to carry me up the stairs.’

“Right well, I should get some sleep. Big day tomorrow and all that.” Daisy cleared her throat. “Angel’s Trumpet.”

The portrait swung open revealing the cozy interior of the Gryffindor Common Room.

She's definitely lucky today. How about tomorrow and the next days. But she's too much focused on the present. Tenn stroke the chameleon. She watched her friend chat with the Fat Lady like there's no tomorrow for it just took so long for Tenn. Glad that Daisy could read her mind or else she would have knocked the portrait already. though she doubted she could do that for that thing had been there for hundreds of years already and no one dared. When she heard Daisy mention the password the common room was revealed. "I knew that's the password. I just said Drum," she laughed at the mention of it. "But it is close enough."

What is Daisy asking the Fat lady about Bavarian Monks, anyway? She decided to ask her friend as she entered the common room, "Daisy, Is that food? Those Bavarian flavoured donuts are really awesome," she finished as she plopped into the couch. And before the hole totally closed she yelled, "Thank you Fat Lady." She was just a little hyper but she's still polite.

”Donuts?” It took Daisy a moment to get the connection. “Oh…no no…they’re monks...like priests.” For the life of her, Daisy couldn’t remember if Tenn had a muggle background or not, but hoped that the at least knew what a priest was. “They’re quite a chatty bunch. You can find them on the 5th floor near the trusty suits of armor.” She left out that they tended to imbibe in a bit too much mead. “You can learn a lot about herbs from them. Comes in handy when you have to do a potions essay.”

She yawned and plopped herself down on a sofa near the fire. She kicked off her shoes and then scratched around the tops of her socks. Man wool was itchy. Again, she had forgotten to buy new socks while in Diagon Alley. “Astrid seems to like you,” she said watching Tenn with the chameleon-newt. It had turned a bright red color, choosing not to blend in with the black of Tenn’s robes like he usually did.

You can find them on the 5th floor near the trusty suits of armor.” She left out that they tended to imbibe in a bit too much mead. “You can learn a lot about herbs from them. Comes in handy when you have to do a potions essay.”

She yawned and plopped herself down on a sofa near the fire. She kicked off her shoes and then scratched around the tops of her socks. Man wool was itchy. Again, she had forgotten to buy new socks while in Diagon Alley. “Astrid seems to like you,” she said watching Tenn with the chameleon-newt. It had turned a bright red color, choosing not to blend in with the black of Tenn’s robes like he usually did.
"Oh!" Daisy told her about the monks on the fifth floor. "I thought it has something to do with sweets," she replied. All she could think now is treats. But glad she had learned something new about the portraits at the castle. She might consider checking that one if she finds time. "So you often talk to them, eh?" she asked her friend.

When she felt something crawl on her sleeve. She could have screamed if the chameleon camouflaged the color of her robes but since she saw it, she picked it up. "She's well behaved unlike some I knew," she commented. She could remember her younger brother's chameleon and it always freaks Tenn whenever she finds it crawling under her covers. "I hope she won't crawl under my covers too," she told Daisy.

"Thanks," she smiled. "Hopefully, dad'll get a job soon so we can live with him again. Actually, I haven't had any news from him for months- I might send an owl later," Lilly said, un-dazed. "I'm sorry," she added, just hearing the bit about her Grandfather. "Yep, I also have a third-year sister, Rose- we're all named after flowers. I-It was a th-thing my m-mum wanted," she blinked, her eyes filling with tears. "Yeah, I've promised myself not to get injured, this year," she grinned. Maybe she'd even get in the team. Lilly had practiced all summer.

Rose ran into the common room, bagsying a chair by the fireplace. Her chair. *hiss* She needed to make more mates. Now that her best friend was gone, anyway. And that sucked like duck poop. So she needed more friends. Or first years to comfort. She didn't mind.

”I talk to them enough,” Daisy said, unwilling to admit she probably talked to them more the most people her age. They came in handy when you were particularly stumped about something. Most of them had a library of knowledge if you only were polite enough to ask.

Astrid was letting out a weird purring noise. “Umm…” Daisy made a funny face at the chameleon-newt and then shook her head. Usually he didn’t take to people so well and by most people she meant her brothers, but then, who would blame Astrid? Her brother’s were nuts. “He shouldn’t,” she said shoving her socks down around her ankles and scratching lower on her calf. “Just don’t leave any licorice in your sheets and you should be good.”

There a hissing noise and Daisy knew that didn’t come from Astrid. It came from behind her. She turned in her chair and peered over the top at a younger girl sitting in a chair. “Excuse me,” she stated raising one eyebrow. “But did you just hiss?”
