Pulling herself up, she looked quickly around for the next riddle. Or was trying to, before it started to rain on her. And was that thunder she had heard?! Not fun.
So, she stood there, getting soaked, while she worked out the riddle. Once she had her answer (which she had pretty quickly), tried to figure out a way of actually writing it down. You know, since the rain would smear the ink and weaken the parchment. She remembered a spell that she had learned a long time ago, but rarely used. Now if only she could remember the incantation...... Oh yeah! It was Immpedimus. Or was it Impervious? Definitely Impervious, that sounded right. She aimed her wand at her parchment cast the spell. Yay, it worked! She followed that up with a drying spell, and wrote down her answer. Now to get over to the slot. She started that way, slipping a few times and shoved it quickly in. And now she waits. Quote:

Taylor frowned and tried to focus on the riddle. The person was mentioned and rather ruin your day? Sounds like her Uncle Puck... he is a pranskter and someone close to that would be.... Her eyes lit in joy as she jolted down her answer then put it in the slot.
That was easier than the last one. Taylor laughed and smiled, waiting to see what would happen. Quote:

.... hello gravity ye ol' friend.
Groaning he picked himself up, knitting his brows together. This is one heck of a class. Would he remember any of these when he's having his NEWTs? Worse... is he going to have to go through any of these during his NEWTs? Merlin forbid he wants to actually live to use his NEWTs not die through it.
But at least now he's in what looks to be a proper room and as he glanced around for the clue he saw the grey clouds painted on the ceiling. Huh a tribute to the illussions of the Great Hall? Thats fine... now where is that cl-- *RRRRRUMBLE!DOWNPOURRRRRRR*
Oh sure... drench him to the bones why dont yah...
He found the riddle but writing it on a parchment was a challenge in itself. How on earth is he going to write something down without it turning into some kind of blueberry oatmeal in his hands? He looked about for some kind of shade... yeah as if Scabbior would provide that. He then scurried towards one corner of the room and hunched down, using his back to protect his book bag as he struggled to scribble out the answer within its folds. Hastily folding it inside he ran towards the door and quickly slammed it through the mail slot. Please let it be right, he needs to get out of the rain! Quote:

Using the charm she had learnt in charms, she managed to keep herself and dry. She then wrote the answer on a piece of partchment and slipped it into the mail box slot Quote:

HMMM. Obviously the first puzzle was a general easy one because it's supposed to help with what's next. The Ravenlcaw placed the parchment on the wall and--- was it raining?! Her gaze went up to the ceiling, squinting and taking a moment of surprise before quickly scribbling down her answer.
Into the mail slot it went! She crossed her arms and was jumping on the ball of her feet in anticipation. Come ooonnn.... Quote:

Laura thought it probably wouldn't so she decided to do the next best thing and answer the quiz.
Laura seriously hoped that was right and she was hoping that the crazy Professor didn't have many more riddles for her to work out. Quote:

She walked over, hair dripping, to read the riddle. Seems simple enough.
She wrote her answer the best she could on soggy parchment and stuck it through the slat on the door. Your answer is correct! But the door does not open for you! Nor does it open for the person who submitted their answers after you! Strange! As the raindrops continue to fall, another riddle is formed beside the original, only visible to anyone who got the first answers correct. OOC: Do not answer this unless you are one of the people quoted above. Quote:

Well... that was new. Why were there two riddles in one room? Max squinted at it, read it a few times, and raised his eyebrows. Hmm. Could it really be that simple?
...Or was he not giving it enough thought?
Ah, well. It was worth the risk, wasn't it? Especially if he could have been first into the next room. Max squatted down again, pulled a new piece of parchment from his bag, and used the bag as an umbrella as he scribbled down his answer to the new riddle. After a moment of looking at it, Max folded it up and shoved it through the slot. Quote:

Stepping away from the door and pushing her black bangs away from her face so she could somewhat see, Kurumi grumbled when she saw another clue appear. Not spoken of at all? There was only one thing that came to mind when she saw a specific word in the clue...but it was probably waaaaaay off course, and quickly took out another piece or parchment, cast the same water repelling charm on it, and wrote down her answer before slipping it into the slot.
Biting her lower lip, Kurumi stepped back and looked up at the rain. Uuuuuuuuuuuug. Quote:

Her bag was wet now, as was all the parchment, and Vivi struggled to find a piece dry enough for this new riddle's answer. What was it anyway? Something new, which meant a departure from the entire category of answers they had been in before. Well... Might as well guess and try to get out of here faster.
She sneezed. It begins. By now you are completely soaked, but that's alright! The door clicks open and you are now ready for the final room! Enter as quickly as you can! People behind you are catching up.
