SHE STILL HAD HER SENSE OF WONDER!!

It was perfectly in tact, just ask anyone who'd been carrying on a simple line of conversation with her and suddenly found her bouncing about with the prospect for a new area of study. Most things could give Jessa ideas. She was curious about everythin--......well....almost everything if she was being honest but even then, it wasn't that she hadn't considered them. On the contrary such things had been given plenty of thought, she just didn't think them very appealing.

Point was, sense of wonder still in tact. Even Olivia and the others seemed to agree it was the case. She'd be lying if she said she wasn't a little horrified at the idea that growing older could make you lose all that. The Ravenclaw didn't WANT to wake up one morning and find out she no longer cared about everything that happened in the world around her.

ANYWAY, it was time for the wardrobe and naturally, she wanted to know how this all worked.

Jessa hopped up, grabbing a notebook and a coat and scrambled toward the wardrobe. She was sure not to push or shove but she was certainly excited, so excited that she walked right through without really understanding what happened...which meant walking right back through into the library.

Huh.

Seamless.

Again, Jessa walked through the barrier, looking all about for signs of passing over but when nothing jumped at her, she walked right back through into the old room again. This went on for several minutes, in and out she went, trying to FEEL for a difference. Was it like....a charm....or did it REALLY have to do with their sense of wonder, in which case....was it just an illusion that the particularly skeptical could see through or...if it was something else, how did the wardrobe KNOW which ones would believe? Was it like the sorting hat?

All things considered, Jessa DID have a skeptical mind but she liked to think it was a healthy level of skepticism given how many times she'd just walked in and out of the barrier.

So so so so soooooo so so many questions, and a couple more trips in and out of the wardrobe before she came to the conclusion she'd have to ask the Librarian herself--could she borrow this when they were done??? Did it take them other places too? Like the vanishing cabinet--WAS THIS JUST A BIGGER VANISHING CABINET????

Okay but actually she had to get back to the club, they were probably waiting. Into the wardrobe she went once again.
