The crudely drawn map had sent her up the stairs that Melanie soon learned changed courses while one was climbing up them. Hogwarts, you puzzle us more and more each day. Slightly out of breath and confused, a little, on where exactly the Fat Lady might be, she almost entirely walked by the painting at first.

No...that had to be her, she thought to herself as she backtracked. She wasn't even fat. Healthy looking woman, beautiful. Melanie felt a smirk play across her features. She seemed busy at the moment, brushing her hair. Melanie's eyes moved upward and around the edges of the painting. This was the entrance to the Gryffindor common room? Moxley had told her much about the castle. "Fascinating," she muttered to herself. She would need a password to get in, though she wasn't entirely sure she wanted to go in. Let students have their space.

"If you are up for talking...I'd love to employ conversation with you, ma'am," Melanie said politely.

Levi climbed out of the common room, unaware that perhaps he may have interrupted what was the beginnings of a potentially interested conversation. A pile of books pertaining different subjects happily floated behind him, and had the boy's eyes not been trained on his copy of Advanced Potion-Making. he'd have noticed that the corridor was less than empty. Surely he couldn't be faulted for giving hellebore and its uses his most undivided attention.

He stopped, for a moment, to flick the page and murmur a distracted, "Hello, my lady," to the portrait guarding the entrance. The books behind him, seemingly not getting the hint that it was time to stop, bumped against the back of his neck, and Levi snapped his head around. "Don't be ridiculous." He was definitely frowning but the books at least stayed right where they were. Which was pushing against his neck, so one sigh later, Levi took a step forward to regain some of his personal bubble.

The sixth year looked up just in time to find that he wasn't alone. An unfortunate realization, to be sure; he'd ditched his black school robes somewhere in the common common room, his sleeves were rolled up almost to his elbows and his red and gold tie was loosened. But his shirt was buttoned up and it was still perfectly tucked in, so Levi chose to focus on the positives."Ma'am?" He arranged his expression into a polite, albeit puzzled mask. Which was completely accurate because he couldn't see what the woman was doing right outside his common room."Are you expecting someone?"
