With Halloween around the corner (and her birthday not far after that!!), Vera was feeling the spirit the season and had taken it upon herself to do some decoration in the lions common room. Her intention was to sneak in some Charms and Transfiguration practice too by using the different spells they'd been learning to apply to her decorating, but she also found she just kind of liked to do things the old fashioned way so she'd yet to start that practice.

With a box opened and sitting on the couch, she’d wrapped a strand of a skull garland loosely around her shoulders as she one of the bookcases in order to drape it over some of the books available. She was reaaaaally hoping Professor Feirgrund was not about to be doing any type of rounds, as she wasn't sure this would have been entirely smiled upon (the climbing, she figured he could appreciate the decor) and she still had yet to test the limits of how well received her early birthday present from Papa would be, a moving tattoo of a basilisk climbing around her calf which was currently left, the witch having gone for ankle socks today instead of her usual long ones to keep it hidden.

Reaaaaaching up high above where she was currently on the shelf, she draped it over a book before the whole garland started to slip down towards the ground. ”Oh shoot!”
