David Kapoor stood outside the new Headmasters office, carrying a huge, heavy and slicked wet cauldron. He uttered the password and let himself in, quite envisioning the relief one would feel at placing the heavy cauldron down somewhere.

Poof. "I win! I win!" Peeves chanted. "Professor, professor, you're so slow,
you make turtles GO GO GO!"

Boo hoo," the amused sarcasm apparent in every word. She gave the password and watched as the spiral staircase revealed itself. Stepping on to the nearest step, Macadrian said lazily as she ascended, "Meet you up there, Peeves."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Agie Brandywine Seventh Year | -S H I F T Y-
Agie entered the Gargoyle's Entrance wit her best friend. They had business to attend to. She had to hold Lyra's hand, just in case she tried running away. "So I guess we just wait."

Agie knew her too well. Her best friend held on to her hand as if she had the tendency to run away. She had ever intent to run if someone wasn't hanging on to her for dear life but, she had to think of someone other than herself, which was hard at times. But it was Agie and she would do anything to help her friend, even if it was to see another mean person. Hopefully this one was not mean, but you never knew. He seemed pretty nice at the feast but looks could be deceiving at times. "Yeah, wait."

As Set and Cadence arrived at the entrance, she simply stared. Oh, Set, we can't get in. We don't have the password. We'll have to find another professor... This must have been what John had tried to tell them at the doors to the school.

"Please" set said to the gargolyales. "We really need to get in... her mother and father just died, please" he begged. The gargoles seemed to detect the truth becausee the stood aside. He and Cadence russed in.

Mariel casually walked down the second floor corridor in vague search of the Headmaster's office when she stopped in front of a small group of students congregated near a gargoyle. Glancing curiously between the students and gargoyle, she figured that this must be the entrance, vaguely recalling having read about some sort of gargoyle guarding the office in Hogwarts, A History. "This is the Headmaster's Office, then?" she mused aloud more to herself than to the others, who all seemed a bit too distraught for her to want to bother them.
She stared at the gargoyle for a moment, waiting for something to happen. Were they to answer a riddle like the entrance to the Ravenclaw common room? She had never found cause to visit Headmistress Rae last term, so she was unsure of how to proceed. After a moment's thought, the young Ravenclaw decided to pull out her wand and gently tapped it twice on the gargoyle's head, waiting for a response.

Coming down from Headmaster Bontecou's office, to inspect what he thought were voices, the Divination Professor saw a young Ravenclaw student from his class and couldn't quite supress a smile at her clever descision to go about problem-solving the situation with the Gargoyle.
" It is a password that allows you to pass." He said, almost with regret at giving away the puzzle for her. " You need a Professor to escort you or the Headmaster to call you in."
Moving away from the steps, he further saw that two very alarmed looking Hufflepuffs were waiting, along with a Gryffindor and yet, still, another Huffie.
" Two at a time. If you ladies wouldn't mind, it looks like these two younger years have urgent business." He said, gesturing to the two Hufflepuffs to come up first.[/QUOTE] Quote:

Startled at the sudden presence of a person exiting the office, Mariel quickly looked away from the gargoyle to see Professor Kapoor standing in front of her. "Hello, Professor," she greeted him brightly. "Oh, I see," she said with slight disappointment as she looked back at the gargoyle. A riddle would have been much more fun. "Ok, thanks. I'll wait," she said looking back up at him in reply to his explanation. It was only right that the others go ahead of her. She was the last of the five to arrive and the others looked quite distressed. What she had to say wasn't all that urgent, just somewhat worrying to her young mind. "On second thought..." she mumbled to herself as she checked her watch. "Maybe I should come back later..." Wouldn't want to be late for class. Giving a distracted little wave to the two silent girls, Mariel turned around and headed in the opposite direction.

Paris found the Headmaster's office quite nicely. She stepped up to the gargoyles and waited for them to notice her and let her pas. She had to speak to the headmaster about potions.

Kapoor let the staircase shut closed again behind him and figured it was time to be getting back to his office, if the Headmasters' was any indication of what volume of visitors one could expect for the term. Between the Headmaster and the Arithmancy Professor, the situation with the ghosts was probably well under control by this time, and he needn't stick around to clutter what might become a crowded office space.
He smiled warmly to a nearby student awaiting entry into the Headmasters' Office, and wished her a "Good evening.", as he made his way back to the moving staircase.

She jumped in surprised when the gargoyles moved to let someone leave the office. She didn't think those things moved, but she shouldn't be surprised. Everything around this place moved. She looked up at him not sure who he was or what he did in the school. "Um good evening sir," She said cautiously. In case he thought she was being kiss up and took more points way from her. She watched him walk away.

"We still need the password..." She looked to the singing kid then back to the gargoyle again. "Umm... Potions? Aphodesal root? Draught? Okari leaves?" What other things could she think of? "Oh..." Then she called out, hoping she would be heard: "PROFESSOR!! I'VE GOT A POTIONS PROBLEM!!"

Another girl walked up to the gargolyes. "I've been here for about 6 hour now! No one's letting me in. Could you go get a teacher, please" Set asked.

So Cam skipped and skipped towards the mean girl who did all of this, with the singing and the dancing. Even his eyes were twitching furiously now and now he was actually heading to the headmaster's office for this situation. Why must he be the Potions professor too? With all of the gargoyles and the passwords, it was all so complicated. As the girl started to guess the passwords, another boy asked her if she could get a teacher to come. WHAT?! "Oi! Noooooo, I don't thiiiink so!" he sang. "Doooon't you seee the probleem wiiith mahhh voice?! It's URGEEENT!"
With a pleading look at the gargoyle, he tried guessing the passwords too. "Headmaster-Professaaahh?!"

Jake sprinted to in front of the gargoyle. This was it, right? But Jake reeeeeeally wanted to get back SOON. Cameron was here, he could give a note for him.
Quickly, Jake got out his self-inking quill and a bit of parchment. Quote:

PS: 6th floor, Sleeping Dragon (Hebridean Black) though it may wake up... you can't miss it, or the door handle. Jake looked around. His friend seemed to be in a... situation of sorts... Oh, that girl looked trustworthy enough, the Slytherin girl he remembered from Potions. "Hi," he started. "This is kinda urgent. I need you to give this straight to the headmaster when he lets you in, okay?" He eyed Cameron who'd had a direst eye-line to the parchment, and could probably have read it. "Or... tell him... pleeeease..."
Jake breathed a little before starting back down the corridor. "Make sure he gets it! Please!" Jake called back again. OOC - hufflepuff_keeper_11, be patient, Kris cant always be online. Pretend that not much time has passed. ;]

Hogwarts RPG Name: Armand Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year Hogwarts RPG Name: Damien Beta-Erikson Slytherin First Year | Slytherin by heart Lina blinked a moment as she was handed a note, then watched the kid run off. "Huh..." She pocketed it and started guessing passwords again. But the moment she was sure both of the other students had their full attention on the gargoyle she took a small step back and pulled it out just enough to see what it said, keeping her eye on the others to start becoming distracted. Mirror of Erised? She slipped it back in her pocket again before either of them could notice and looked around. The effects of the potion were problematic, yes, but this was something she really wanted to see! Anyone watching her could suddenly see the wheels turning in her eyes. She was thinking again.

| Technically technical all the time Bookaholic As he stepped off the staircase he was shocked to find a bunch of students milling around the gargoyle. "Wow, you wouldn't believe how powerful an imperturbable charm they put on that office. I couldn't hear a thing up there. Now, what seems to be the trouble?" he grinned around at them.

Cam stared at Jake's handwriting, what was the boy really up to? But he saw what he wrote and nodded confusingly until the girl put it into her pocket. So he continued singing songs, especially romantic songs and he didn't know why. The Headmaster actually came from his lair to see who was next and then that boy had just told the Headmaster for a word, like Cam wasn't even there. UUUUGH. Whaaaat a seeelfiiish and deaf boy! He continued singing those words in his head, did the guy hear him?! Ugh, people these days, don't even care about others anymore!
He continued whining and whining in his little head. "I love you, you love me..." SILLY SONG FOR THIS SITUATION.
