Okaaaay so was she supposed to be paying attention? Because (spoiler alert) Char wasn't. She had been coerced into following the Gryffindors up here without much trouble, because she was going to be able to wear the head BADGE thing (a promise was a promise okay?), but the school song was too long and her attention had wandered pretty much as soon as the portrait had started singing it. Instead she'd gone to examine what appeared to be a trick step, judging by the way all the bigger kids had jumped over it. Interesting. She didn't have anything she could drop in it to see what happened, but she would probably do that soon.
Some airman was saying something but even though Charlotte had managed to get herself into the common room, mostly she was just LOOKING at everything, so she could tell Davie all about it. It wasn't much like how her parents had described the Ravenclaw tower. She liked it though (secretly), and prodded at a few cushions and hangings as she wandered around.
....... and there was a box.
A red box.
A closed red box.
Charlotte inched clooooser and closer to the box as the head boy spoke.
Clooooooser.
She reached out and touched the very edge of it with her little finger. Hmmmm.
