If you know the password, you can make your way through a portal in the stone wall of the dungeon and walk into the Slytherin common room:
The ceiling is low and the walls are made of stone, and even though they seem dank and cold, the room is a very comfortable temperature. There are greenish lamps by black leather couches and chairs, with skulls all around. Some of the chairs had been transfigured into Chaise Lounges by previous seventh years, and never turned back. There are windows and as the common room is located under the lake, you can occasionally see mermaids, grindylows and the giant squid swim by. A fire burning hunter green flickers in the fireplace, before the rug covered floor. The Slytherin emblem is everywhere, as pride is one of this house's qualities.
This is where Slytherin students are allowed to unwind, study and chat with one another. There is a straircase straight ahead that leads to a room students may use as a quiet place to study, and ask prefects and high scoring students questions. To the left, a staircase that goes down to the Boys Dorm, and to the right a staircase that leads to the Girls Dorms. Beside each staircase is self inking quill and parchment with the words Attendo Thea Vipera on it.
On the side of the fireplace is a Notice Board for class and homework announcements, as well as general announcements and signup sheet with the words 20 minutes max on it, for those wanting to sit on the couch and stare at the fire all emo like. On one of the coffee tables you see a copy of the Slytherin Scroll, a newsletter only for Slytherin Students.
A box is on an end table, where you may sign up for or to be a Serpent Sidekick, and a podium with a copy of Hogwarts a History, which is where you will learn that even though the whole dungeon had once been flooded, nothing was waterlogged or permanently damaged.
sorry for taking so long to reply. Uni was heaps busy the last few days >_<

He needed to be in shape for quidditch, and never having played before, he needed that kind of practice! But he really needed to fi.. He'd been staring off into the fire again as something practically flew at him "Amelia" he murmured his arms immediately going around her.
"UGH" he said groaning about Kimalia's next words, OWL's, yeah. "I think so. Ye?" he asked in a muffled voice, turning his head towards Amelia's ear as she was still in his arms.

Hmm, she recognized this face. "Nice stockings." Kimalia smiled, "I have another pair with fuzzy hearts if you'd like." Somewhere in the bottom of her trunk that she wasn't making an effort to get right away. Right now she wanted to relax and so she sat on the head rest part on the couch, just so she could see what it was like to be over a head taller than someone.
"Isaac, right? I hope practices haven't been too.. rough on you." The face impacts and everything would be more than enough to drive someone off a game. She didn't forget Amelia who was wrapped around him though, hehe.
"Hey Amelia, glad to see you both doing okay," Now she was done with the whole Captainy, Nursey, checkup on health and such. She made her way to stretch out her arms in the air. "Can't believe have fast the terms going again, you both ready for your OWLs?"
Amelia smiled brightly as Isaac's arms went around her. Definitely the best hugs! Even if she was a little bias about it. Not that bias or anything else mattered now that she was finally with her Isaac again. She could just tell that the Summer holidays were going to be hell. Complete and utter hell.
If only they could stay like this forever she'd be perfectly happy. Even if it would somewhat impede all other social interactions and put a damper on the time she'd get to spend with Harper. Ok so maybe forever wouldn't be so great but for tonight it would be!
"Hello Kimmy," Amelia responded, turning her head so that it wasn't as much buried in Isaac's chest. People needed to be able to understand what she was saying after all.
"UGHH NO! Who in their right mind would look forward to exams?" Amelia asked, and then belatedly hoped her Captain wasn't one of those people. If she was Amelia was almost 100% certain that Quidditch practice wouldn't be fun for her in the next few days.
"I am however looking forward to after OWL's. Holidays should be fun."
Like a Domino ♥ Karma Kimalia ♥ ♥ Taco Bell ♥ Sorry for party rocking
SPOILER!!: The cheeky couple

"I am however looking forward to after OWL's. Holidays should be fun."
Kimalia smirked, "Well, if you ever change your mind.." She would gladly summon them over. Those said stockings would forever help cushion her luggage until then. Unlike OWLs which could only be buried away for soo long.. "Heh, yeah, crazy question there." Now then, who else would enjoy those exams, other than those Ravenclaws and maybe Kurumi. Hmm..
Now crossing her right leg over her left, which wasn't easy seeing as Kimalia was still sitting on the head rest part of the couch. She managed though. "At least you'll be done with them soon, I still got another year before them." The thought of overwhelming work to prepare was quite daunting. Thankfully Kimalia wasn't much of an overachiever, to be like that for seven terms would be asking brain cells to explode. She got enough brain cell damage from Quidditch, thank you very much. Hehe.
The holidays, yeah. She'll see her family again, that would be another bittersweet moment. Ahem. "I'll probably see an old friend who use to go here during then." Yep, the one who was very chivalrous to her during breakfast and dancing last term. Such a shame he left, as a lowly smile appeared before turning to the conjoined snakes. "Will you both be traveling much?" Who knows, maybe they could score a ticket to see a Quidditch game on her behalf.. Or not. Her brother's team definitely wasn't playing any time soon. It was a subject she hoped wouldn't get too personal.

His eyes twinkled in laughter as Kimmy mentioned that they were there if he ever wanted to use them. "I'll keep thet in mind." he said making a face. Adjusting a little Amelia was still close but that they were in a more comfortable position, he smiled down at her brushing her hair away from her face. He laughed at her reaction to the OWL's though, he felt the same way. He couldn't wait for them to be over, but yet...that meant the hol's after that, possibly away from her! No he definitely wasn't bringing up...
...the holidays. Why did she mention them! Bah, ok, if she mentioned them he could right? "They might be." he said hesitantly. He wanted to go back to Egypt at least for a month. He wondered if maybe she would come if he asked. But that could wait for another time perhaps. "Enjoy the free year of no OWL's as much as ye can, next year will be nuts." he replied shaking his head. And it was!
Darn it now Kimalia asked if they'd be travelling much. "Erm, me parents asked if I'd come down te Egypt fer a month, so I might." he replied after a moments hesitation, glancing down at Amelia.
There was a huge smile plastered on the boy's face that not even the Whomping Willow would be able to smack off his face. "Same here," he said. Truth be told, he had been worried when Fee hand't returned to Hogwarts. He wanted to owl her, but wasn't sure where she lived now. But it was all better now. She was here.
Kennedy sat next her and nodded. Yep, a lot of things have happened recently and...wow, it just felt nice to be talking to her again. "I've come to accept that I'm a wizard... and I can't change that," he said. He truly was at peace with that now. "I've also been preparing for O.W.Ls." And those were just so informational that at times he really enjoyed it.
He sat up straight. "What about you?" he asked. "How are your sisters?" He wanted to know how France was. He's heard great things about it.
Fee couldnt help but smile at the fact she was sitting here with Kennedy.She really had missed him over the weeks she had spent in France and seeing him there next to her smiling so brightly,somehow radiated happiness."Its good to be back",the blonde nodded.Words werent enough to describe how much she missed Hogwarts.
He's come to accept that he was a wizard? Somehow that really got her laughing,he was so cute.Hehe."I am very glad to hear so Mister",the Slytherin giggled,"you know some of us are pretty amazing,witches and wizards."Seemed like Kennedy found peace with all the Magic an being a Slytherin.Suited him well,to be honest.Oh my god,OWLS.They would be the death of Fee,she just knew it."How does it go?",the girl asked her friend," i havent even started properly and i am feeling quite bad for it but with some subjexts i just cant be bothered."Such as potions or herbology.Ugh.
Chuckling at the boy's eagerness to hear about her trip the fifth year placed her hand in her lap."Oh my sisters are doing quite well",she smiled," i was really afraid they would have problems with being away so far and stuff but now its all good."Beauxbatons wasnt Hogwarts but Fenja and Edith seemed to like it and that was all that counted."France is really beautiful also",the Slytherin nodded,"the weeks i spent there the weather was fantastic." Nonetheless Fee was happy to be back and even the really stupid weather couldnt bring her mood down.
Amber was nervous to be in the castle. She had been sorted, and then, came down with dragon pox that made her stay at home for most of the term. She had finally gotten released from St. Mungo's with the okay to come back to school, but she wasn't sure that she wanted to be here really.
After all the excited that she was finally getting to come to Hogwarts, she had missed most of her first time, with her mother trying to teach her things at home. Amber was extremely worried that she was going to be too far behind to catch up. So she entered her common room for the first time and looked around. It was different that what she had first imagined.
She sighed and looked for a friendly face to sit next too. Maybe there was still time to make friends....maybe...
Aurora walked into the common room and curled up on one of the sofas, staring at the parchment in her hands. This was it. This was her music results. She just sat for a moment, staring holes into the paper, trying to read the letter through the paper... She was really nervous; up until now she had been really confident about the exam but with the letter in her hands her confidence had drained into a feeling of nervousness and dread... What if she'd failed? What if she had to re-do it? Merlin... this was terrifying!
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.

When was the last time that Daichi had been in the common room just to relax? It must have been a few months now because no matter the weather, he liked being outside especially at the duck pond. But right now he wanted to read a manga in the common room.
But as he wanted to walk up the dormitory to grab his book he noticed Aurora seated on one of the sofas. Walking up to her, he noticed the piece of paper in her hand but didn't catch the nervous look on her face. "hiii~!" said and waved both his hands as he stood in front of her before moving to sit as well. Or more like, jumping on it. Kicking off his shoes his feet didn't smell! the Slytherin held them up and half lay on the sofa. "What are you doing?"

Aurora looked up at the sound of Daichi's voice. "Hey Daichi." she said, smiling slightly - the excitable third year always brought a smile to her face. It was probably his seemingly endless capacity to be happy.
"This letter," She waved it. "Contains my Grade Eight Music exam results..." She fingered the edges of the parchment. "And I'm too scared to open it." she added, glancing up at the boy.

"Oh yeah, you did your exam during the holiday!" He said as he remembered that she had told him about it. He eyed the piece of paper in her hand before looking back up as she spoke again. "Well, you're not going to find out if you don't open it" He smiled and pointed at it.
"And i want to know too, so open it~!" It wasn't even his test and he was nervous for the result. HEH

Aurora nodded, "That's true... but what if it's terrible?!" she squeaked, eyeing the letter as if it was about to explode.
That made her laugh slightly and just about gave her the confidence to tear open the letter. She did it slowly, holding it at arms length until she'd unfolded it, then she brought it close enough to read.
She was speechless. A huge smile lit up on her face and she squealed slightly with glee. "I... I... DAICHI! THIS IS AWESOME!" She waved the letter at him so he could see the clear marking distinction in the centre of the enclosed certificate. "This means I never have to take a theory exam ever again!" She grabbed Daichi into a hug with a humongous grin, laughing slightly in relief. "Lets celebrate! Somehow..." She wasn't sure how yet... but there would be celebrations...

Daichi's curiousity was growing as Aurora opened up the letter. Sloooooowly. He leaned closer to the girl because at arms length he couldn't see it from where he was seated and was at the her ear when she shouted
"WAAAH!" He shouted as well and fell to his side, eyes wide in shock. Seeing the clear mark that she had passed, Daichi tried to sit up to congratulate her but halfway getting up he was hugged.
His cheeks flushed red as he felt her arms wrap around him and after a few seconds he tried to push her away. "Get off" he said, not in an angry voice but normal one. "Quickly, i heard they throw people in detention if they get too close..." he added.
Luckily she did get off of him and was now talking about celebrating it. "Wait! i have something~" and he jumped up from the sofa to run to the boys dormitory.
It took him two minutes before he ran back down from the stairs and grinned widely as he give her not one..not two..but THREE chocolate bars! "I never give anyone my chocolate, if they try to steal it i'll kill them" the threat didn't match his personality though... hmmm... "But i'm giving it to you, because i know you worked hard for this test~"
As he sat back down on the couch, Daichi began to eat from his own chocolate bar when something popped up in his mind. "You should tell Kennedy!" because he was her boyfriend right?

Aurora laughed, "It's not like that, silly!" and she hugged him again just to prove a point. "Besides, I doubt they'd ever put you in detention for something so little. Me, probably. But not you." Nah, he was just too cute.
"You do?" But he'd already disappeared. She folded up the letter and stowed it safely in the pocket of her robes. Then he appeared again. "Oh wow," she said, taking the chocolate bars. "But I really wont eat them all. I'll just have one, yeah?" She handed the other two back to him. She greatly appreciated the gesture but there was no way she could eat three chocolate bars.
Aurora nodded slightly, "Yeah, I should." But she had no idea where he was... probably off with his prefect duties or his studying. Silly OWLs... "I'll find him later." she added. There were much bigger things at hand right now - like getting started on this chocolate!
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
" i know! I know it isn't like THAT but i don't want detention" he pouted as he ran a hand through his hair and jumped again when Aurora hugged him for a second time. He laughed at her statement of doubting they would ever throw him in there. "i guess i'm just lucky and get away with just a warning" he giggled but then quickly cleared his throat and hoped she hadn't heard it. Only these few months he had punched Williamson, tried to steal a duck and ignored Lafay when she had told him to share the chocolate in class. Not even points where taken from all those things! Not that he minded of course. But it still made him wonder...
As he took another bite from the bar, Daichi whipped his head to look at Aurora when she gave them back. But...but... I'm giving them to you..." he said; having the feeling she didn't like his gift. He was staring at the chocolate as if he was in an inner battle of taking them back or giving it back. His mind won and the Slytherin grabbed the remaining bars.
"cool.. I haven't seen him yet this year. He's probably too busy being cool with prefect stuff" he smiled. "by the way, that seminar class... Was that someone you know? Because he studies magical music as well"

Aurora chuckled slightly. "It's probably because of your deceptively innocent exterior." she teased, grinning. "I bet they'd chuck me in without a second thought." Though she hadn't exactly helped her case in the past... what with all the threats and the attempts to dye her schoolmates green...
"I know you are, and I think it's lovely, but I just don't eat that much chocolate." she explained, smiling a little as he grabbed them back. "See? It's more likely to be eaten now." she added with a wink.
Nodding, Aurora replied, "Yeah, I guess he is. But it's not exactly cool." Nope. She was bitter about it. It meant she didn't get to see him very often and that sucked! "You mean Dr. MacNally? Yeah, he's my music tutor. Did he give you some of that glossa florem sap stuff?" He'd given her loads this year - apparently he'd had a surplus this year or something...
