The Ravenclaw common room is a wide, circular room at the top of the seventh floor. Graceful arched windows punctuate the walls, which are hung with blue-and-bronze silks. During the day, Ravenclaws have a spectacular view of the surrounding mountains. Overhead, the ceiling is domed and painted with stars, which are echoed in the midnight-blue carpet. There are tables, chairs, and bookcases, and in a niche opposite the door stands a tall statue of white marble: Rowena Ravenclaw. A delicate-looking circlet has been reproduced in marble on her head with the tiny words 'Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure' etched into the diadem. The statue stands beside a door that leads up to the dormitories above.

Come in, have a seat and make new friends. Welcome to Ravenclaw!

Jack entered the Common Room for the first time this term. As always, it felt like coming home. He found a comfortable chair in front of the fire and enjoyed doing nothing. Knowing Hogwarts, it may be the last time this term where he had the luxury of doing nothing. Soon, he would be up to his eyeballs in homework, studying and, hopefully, Quidditch.

Sabrina Evanstar stepped into the Ravenclaw Common room and, unlike other years when she had either just gone ahead and walked into her dormitory or when she had marched up to their Head of House's home to complain about the ridiculous changes in the Ravenclaw common room, the blonde let out a deeeeeep breath and looked around the room.

Six years had passed since the day she had first stepped into the common room as a first year, and although they had been extremely dramatic years, what with students turning into animals and the school spliting up and being attacked by merpeople and then the headmaster turning into a werewolf, nothing had changed in the common room (except for Belle's school but she really didn't want to think about that) - it felt like home.

Sighing, the seventh year walked up to one of the windows and peeped out into the night, wondering how this year was going to unfold. Just like any other year - with lots of drama. Giggle. Example - Cam and Willie's little performance in the hall. Just thinking of those two made her giggle.

The blonde walked away from the window and went to sit on one of the comfortable couches in front of the fire. She didn't feel like going to bed yet.

Ah... the Common Room.

Livvy walked into the Common Room, her face rather grave for a girl like her. All the events that had happened just moments before she stepped into this room, were still rushing through her head. She didn't know whether she should be glad that things were okay with her and Rachel... or cry because the girl had left before Livvy could say any more. Clearly she wanted to be alone. Livvy would just have to give her time.

But she still couldn't help but sigh. She didn't want to give it any more time. She wanted things to go back to the way they were. But Livvy knew that this would never be able to become reality. Everything took time. She stalked to one of the couches near the fire and slumped down.

Noticing one of the Ravenclaw prefects and one of her former Quidditch team mates. Attempting a small smile, Livvy acknowledged the boy's presence. "Hullo Jack..." she said, meekly.

With a huge sigh of relief and a relieved smile on her face, Lasca trudged into the common room and plopped down into her favorite chair. A second later her adorable cat Tundra came bounding across the room and jumped into her lap. Cuddling the small cat and kicking back in front of the fire was the exact thing she had needed. Now she just wondered where Mariel was.

Running an absent hand through her hair, she pushed it out of her face and became even more relaxed. This year was going to wonderful.

Damon walked into the commom room at last. He was finally in the place he would call home for the most part for the next 7 years. Damon looked around at all the furnishings and noted that they were in just the right place. Damon noticed the bust of ravenclaw sitting on its stand as it was it was a great piece of work. Damon also liked the fact that the room had a good view of the mountains outside. He saw a few others had entered the room ahead of him. He raised his hand in greeting.

Cassirin · 09-19-2009, 02:16 AM

"Liv!" Copernicus spotted Livvy upon entering the common room, although he'd managed to lose... everyone else. He grinned and crooked an elbow around her neck for a sort-of hug before releasing the younger girl.

"Crazy days, huh? Can you believe those pests at the feast?"

Golden Monkey · 09-19-2009, 02:24 AM

Ah the common room William thought as he stepped past the portrait hole and breathed in deeply. Looking around he grinned before walking over to his favorite chair and plopping himself down before closing his eyes. He was tired after that weird feast. Why were all feasts weird he thought frowning deeply as he draped a leg over the arm of the chair.

He heard a familiar voice and looked up, opening his eyes briefly before spotting Livvy. Lifting his hand he waved halfheartedly before dropping it back down and resting his tired and sore head on the back of the chair.

Pfft. Men. Ignoring her.

Sighing, Livvy crossed her arms against her chest, glancing around every so often in hopes to get a glimpse of Rachel or perhaps someone else that she knew. She was back to Hogwarts... but the real reason why she loved it here were because of her friends. If they weren't here... what was the entire point in being here?

Ooh. Someone said her name.

Looking up, Livvy spotted her good ol' pal Copernicus. Her lips curled up into a large grin as the boy bounded over and gave her a rather awkward hug. "Hey Perni," she said, letting the boy go. "Yes... if today is anything... it'd be eventful and crazy. And well... since it's Cam who is one of those 'pests'... I'd have to say that I can actually believe it. If anyone can pull such a stunt off, it's Cameron Karsten," she said, chuckling as she shook her head. Whaddya know? The boy did it. With some prodding coming from Willie's end of course.

Out of the corner of her eye, Livvy noticed William, a younger Ravenclaw boy that she had become quite acquainted with the previous term. Smiling gently, she lifted a hand up to wave at him. Her eyes lingered on him curiously, wondering why the boy's energy had all of a sudden, seemed to have disappeared.

Lucy ran into the common room belonging to the Ravenclaws and stood in a superhero post. "Dun da da daaaaaaa!!" she exclaimed, as she scanned the common room, only to see mainly tired and much more calm house-mates. Aww, none of them seemed up for any fun. She remembered the fact that she had a few Love Potions hidden her bag...really, she wasn't planning to use them for any "oooh, make him falllll in luuuuffs with meeee!!" things. It was just to stir up some fun. Mhm!! Why not unleash her weirdo side even more so? Yep. Souuunds like a good plan.

But at the same time...Lucy felt a twinge of fatigue. Ehh...maybe she should go to bed now? No, no, nooooo...wait a while. Juuuust wait, and see. Maybe, there'd be someone around to befriend...or torture? Heh.

"They could live in the dungeons and it wouldn't be harsh enough. Imagine how these newly sorted students feel about now... their first night and someone was throwing poo at them." He sighed, sinking backwards onto the nearest couch and attempting to drag Livvy with him.

"I want to hear every ridiculous detail of your summer, as well as the important ones. Too keyed up to go to bed just yet."

TKS<3 · 09-19-2009, 02:54 AM

Hannah walked into the Ravenclaw common room and took in a deep breath. She smiled to herself. She loved this place, it felt like home. Not her home at her mums house but her dads house in Los Angeles. She loved going to his home two weeks out of every summer. It felt like home because she was hardly ever at her mum's house, what with her travel quidditch team and her summer studying. She had been taking classes at a local school for young wizards to brush up on her magical skills. She always liked to be one step ahead. She took a breath in again and let it out slowly. She had a feeling this was going to be a fun year.

Dun dun dunnnnnn.

Xander entered the common room in his most superhero like pose EVAR. It was one of those nights were he had enough food that included sugar, and it was time to release his inner psycho.

He spotted another girl doing some superhero like pose too. But... he was Xanderman! Who was sheeeee?

"Xanderman, to the rescueeee!" he said, running around, using his robes as a cape. Ahh, the joys of being immature. He waltzed up to the girl who was making the same movements as he was. EPIC. He put on his manly voice and stood as straight as her could. "I couldn't help but notice you are performing superhero stunts like me. I am the Xanderman. And you, my fair superheroine?"

Lucy heard the cry of what seemed to be another superhero. Whoooaaa whoa whoa whoa. Who was this kid who was crying out? Yes, crying out...because she knew not another word for it. But it sure sounded heroic. Aha! Time to introduce herself to another fellow hero! She watched as the boy practically flew right next to her and assumed his super-hero stance once more. Ah, veeeery professional. Very professional, INDEED.

Apparently, his name was Xanderman. Oh, boy. She hadn't thought up a super-heroine name. She was titled auntie Lucy by Cam, but...that didn't seemed to be such a good super-heroine name. What about that girl, Shana, who nicknamed her Lulu? Super Lulu? Miss Lulu? Missy Lulu? Lulu Girl? Hmmm...eeniee...meeeeniieeee...miiiinnyyyy...moe. Missy Lulu, it was!!

"Why, hello, there, Xanderman! I am..." she stood with such perfect posture. "MISSY LULU!!" she cried out as heroically as she could. "What business brings you here, Xanderman, other than the fact that you are a Ravenclaw? Hmmm?" she interrogated. Of course, she had to interrogate him. Who knooooows what trouble he could bring to Hogwarts: TOWNSVILLE VERSION.

Walrus · 09-19-2009, 03:14 AM

Jacoby stepped into the common room, a place he hoped to find home in, Seeing many other students he decided to sit at a table and see all the people in his new house walk by.

EPIC! There were two superheroes so far. This was just turning into one of his best years yet! Well, it was only his third. BUT STILL. It would be fantastic!

He looked at Missy Lulu. She was older than him, but did that surprise him? PSSSH NO. All of the girls he knew so far were older than him. Hehe, mee-oooooow. And she was pretty. What had Hogwarts been hiding all of these years? Oh right, him, in the corner being super scared for no reason. Ehh.

"My business?" he asked, still standing up straight with his hands on his hips. He puffed his chest out a little bit more, just because he could. "My business here is to save the castle from the forces of bad hygiene, luuuurve tension, and... anything else that needs saving from!"

He eyed her carefully, trying to figure out what she was doing here as well. "And youuuu, Missy Lulu? What is YOUR business here?"

whscameragal · 09-19-2009, 03:22 AM

Emily walked into the common room and her jaw dropped, it wasn't just what she imagined, it was much much better. Exquisite silks, bookshelves, and even the crisp smell of new parchment! It was a s if she had died and gone to heaven! she decided to wrtie to her mom about the feast, she'd add the first day tomorrow after her owl arrived. Emily's kneazle climbed up onto her shoulders as she took out her glitter ink and a pheonix feather quill and began to write.

Lucy listened carefully as Xanderman stated his business. Hm...Bad Hygiene, Love, and Who Knows What Else...this was her kind of superhero buddy...friend...person...thing. It. Was. AWESOME. She hadn't even planned on becoming a super-heroine until she walked through the entrance of the Ravenclaw Common Room, and already, she was getting special attention from another superhero ~~who oddly attractive~~.

"Aha!! Is that so?" she said, squinting her eyes just tad bit. "It just so happens that you and I share the same interests!!" Well...they did, didn't they? Love seemed like something she wanted to be involved with, and bad hygiene was BAD!! Being a geeeermophobe, she had to rid the castle of bad hygiene. It was imperative!

"You know, Xanderman, I think you and I were destined to meet. Perhaps we were meant to join forces against the evilness of bad hygiene, love issues, and whatever other evils this castle brings. Wouldn't you agree?" she asked.

At what Copernicus said, Livvy couldn't help but laugh at it. What exactly would be a harsh enough punishment for those two? Did one even exist? Most likely not. Willie and Cam always seemed to take her by surprise, bringing in a new level of their insanity. How many levels were there? Was there even a limit? OH GAWD.

"Oh dear. The first years. Great impression those two had on them," Livvy said, snorting and just shaking her head. But she had to admit, the show that the two boys had put on had been quite delightful.

Turning her head to look at Copernicus from where he now sat, she listened to him as he told her that he wanted to hear every ridiculous detail of her summer. Oh merlin. Did he really? Why were those two brothers always trying to pry into her BEESWAX?!

But this was Copernicus. Not Plymouth. No offense to the boy, but Livvy would never dare share her summer to him. She loved him and all... but yeah... she would never think of sharing it with him.

Biting her lip, Livvy looked at Perni with a rather serious look. "You sure you want to hear every single ridiculous detail?" she asked, unsure if she should tell him about all the horrible things she had done over the summer and how blind she had been. Should she tell him that she was a monster that didn't deserve to be liked or befriended?

... Shaddup Livvy.

HMMM. She was definintely thinking about something. He studied her, and she was definitely cuuute. Hehe. It was going to be awesome working with someone who was good looking. WOOHOO.

"Yes, it is so," he said, still using his manly voice. They shared the same interests?! EVEN MORE EPIC. "You know, I find that highly interesting. We should make perfect superhero partners." Oh yes, they would.

It was very amusing to him, finding someone else besides Torin who was a superhero. Or at least acting like one. Everything was funnnn!

"Destined to meet, you say? I think it's pretty excellent that we did. Fighting forces together, we are Xanderman and Miss Lulu!"

Strike a superhero pose. And BAM.

stormanator · 09-19-2009, 03:56 AM

Damon saw a of couple of his housemates acting as superhero or at least being like them. Damon wished he had a superhero in his life but he felt that would be a long way off. The only other person he thought of as a superhero was in another house. Damon was just sitting with a hunch on one of the common room couches. How good it felt. Damon wanted to prepare for his first class so he took out a couple of notes that he had jotted down and started studying them intently.

Gasp! He thinks so, too!! Why, they practically shared the same mind! How awesome was that? Lucy never expected it to happen but she might have just found her perfect BFF...or, soon-to-be BFF. At least in the SuperHero world. But nevertheless, it was the best moment of her life at school. She pictured the two of them flying ~~(which really meant running)~~ around the castle saving the lives of the citizens of Hogwarts together. It looked beautifully awesome. And what was more, he was good-looking!! All superheroes had to be good-looking!! Lucy remembered the heroes from the muggle world, like Spiderman, and Batman, and Superman. By far, her favorite was Batman, and he, of course, was quite the good-looking man.

Lucy shifted back into the current scene, and nodded firmly. "Excellent!!" she said. And then Xander began creating a motto with which she had to comment on. "And all before bedtime!!" she cried out as she followed Xanderman in the action of posing like a super-heroine, this time sticking a fist up into the air.

"What task shall we focus on now, Xanderman? Any news of criminal or suspicious activities? Perhaps issues with the locals?" she questioned.

Faerilicious · 09-19-2009, 04:11 AM

Stare.

What were those two doing? Sabrina blinked at Xander-bear and the girl who wanted to steal her ice cream as a fluffy white thing jumped onto her lap. the fluffy white thing happened to be her cat, Snowball. "Where were you, Snow?" She asked, cuddling the white ball to her. "I missed you at the feast."

The cat looked at her for a moment as though saying, but I always disappeare at feasts, and then lazily curled up in her lap once again. The seventh year started stroking her cat while watching the two odd ... err ... people in front of her.

Ooc: For anyone who wants to RP.

DH Vixen · 09-19-2009, 04:12 AM

Mina followed a few of her fellow Ravenclaws into their common room. She did her best to blend in but when she finally set eyes on the room, her eye got huge and her jaw dropped. 'This is really going to be my home for the next seven years,' she thought to herself. Every thing so far had exceeded her expectations and actually being there was surreal to her.

She made her way toward one of the bookcases, running a finger over the spine. Oh how she did love books. Turning again to face the room, she saw a few people she had met at the feast. Lucy was with a boy and they were making poses. She laughed a little and continued to look around. 'I wonder where Alice is,' she asked herself as she settled into a chair.

Golden Monkey · 09-19-2009, 04:20 AM

Opening his eyes once more he looked around the room, just for kicks. It was too early to sleep and he knew he wouldn't be able to anyway. Not yet. Sitting up, he stretched his back, not yet used to his now long limbs, wondering when the pain would stop. Growing a lot in a sort amount of itme was hard on the body harder than he thought. When he needed right now was something fun.

Glancing around again he smirked a bit as he saw an older girl talking to a boy he didn't recognize. Not surprising since he didn't know many people from Ravenclaw, opting to hang out with Slytherins on more than one occasion. Getting up he picked up his bag, which held his experiment and wandered over, standing just behind the girl. "Hello." he said in a soft, creepy voice. May as well have some fun before exhaustion hit him again he figured.
