She'd risk breaking it for the sake of science. "Yes, let's look behind the tapestry!" Kate grabbed the edge of the tapestry and tugged a little to try to pull it away from the wall a bit so they could discover what was behind it.
Then she got distracted by Hayden talking about Ravenclaw traits. "Um, I like to read and I like to learn about history and inventions, so I guess the traits fit me? I'm not very studious, though. I got bored in most of my Muggle classes and I have too much energy to sit and learn just for the sake of learning. I like learning useful information."
"Yeah, my parents are Muggles. Yours must not be, since you know so much about the houses and stuff."
And apparently Hayden knew about the castle and grounds from getting lost. "Let's see what's behind the tapestry, and then go explore outside!" Hopefully it wasn't raining. She hadn't looked out a window recently.
Hayden just nodded as Kate talked about how she did and did not fit with typical Ravenclaw stereotypes. She'd have to remember that and make a note of it somewhere later. She nodded at the comment about her parents.
"My dads a muggleborn, but my mom comes from a long line of wizards. They taught me about Hogwarts and magic stuff growing up." She had really enjoyed being around all of it. She couldn't imagine what it would be like being around normal muggle stuff and then finding out you had magic. Actually she could a little. It would probably be really cool.
"Didn't you show signs of magic as a kid? What did your parents do?"
That sounded like a good plan. Adventure after they saw what was behind the tapestry. Hayden peered over Kate's shoulder as she moved the tapestry away from the wall. A brick wall was revealed behind it. But it looked...abnormal. Hayden couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she knew this wasn't a normal brick wall.
"I think there's something hidden here," she said slowly. A secret passageway perhaps? Or maybe it was nothing but an unusual looking wall.
