Qaz wasn't sure that she had enough energy to make it all the way to the Common Room, but somehow, she managed.

When she walked in, she noticed that the house-elves had been busy. It was fantastic. She loved blue, but at the moment she LOVED blue. She hoped that the feeling of euphoria that she had on the field would last for days....weeks....forever.

Then she noticed the food. Before things got to crazy, she'd grab something to eat....maybe there's some butterbeer around...

Ludo buzzed into the Common Room. And what a sight...

They'd done it...again! Ravenclaw...with the Quidditch Cup!
Ludo was all smiles as he stepped through the door and started rocking his head with the Weird Sister's song blaring from across the room.

He spotted Qaz and bustled over. "Congratulations Qaz!" he said, happily and extended his hand. "You showed those Lions what's what."

"That is the best looking cake I've ever seen!" Cela exclaimed as she bounded into the common room, still waving the pom-poms and grinning in excitement. She waved at Qaz, "You were great!" She told the older girl before taking a sweet and sucking on it happily. Where were the rest of the team? She totally had to congratulate them!

Qaz had her mouth full when Ludo approached...naturally. She chewed quick and swallowed.

Taking his hand, she said, 'Thanks! It was a great match wasn't it? Best match I've seen since I've been here...and I got to play. Next year is 4-peat.' Then she realized that she was still shaking his hand...and quickly let go.

Qaz had such a big smile, she thought her face would crack.

She saw Cela wave...and waved back...giving her the thumbs up to acknowledge her support.

Robert practically ran up to the Common Room in search of Mari after not finding her in the stands. Hopefully she had come to the match.... Upon saying the password he walked in and stared in wonder at the decorations. This is bloody fantastic! Seeing Ludo he walked over and gave him a pat on the back and then walked up to Qaz, "You played wonderfully." He grinned as he walked over to get some punch and waited for Mari. Where was she...?

Walking in, to the common room, Liz warily walks over to table, taking a few things and putting them on a plate, she grabs a pumpkin juice, and sits down on couch.

Livvy ran in and twirled around in happiness. They had won! Woo-hoo!!! She took a cookie and ran to sit down next to Liz. "Hey Liz. That was an awesome game, wasn't it?" she asked, leaning back and biting into her yummiful cookie. Nom nom.

This time, Qaz didn't have her mouth full...

'Robert, you did, too. We all did. Ravenclaw Rocks!' Qaz said, beaming. 'Here's to 3-peat....going on 4!'

Smiling at Livvy, Liz agrees, "It sure was! I love it, when it's neck and neck."

Mari made sure that she looked fine for the millionth time before she stepped into the common room, finding Robert easily as usual. She had been in the stands, and she remembered the rush of happiness she felt for Robert when she realized Ravenclaw had won, again at that! She hadn't even known they were so good at Quidditch. She made her way over to him, calling his name out as she did. " Robert! You did fantastically, even if I had no idea what exactly it was you were doing half the time!" She said, and as soon as she was close enough, she tackled his midsection, it being the closest part of him she could wrap her arms around. She smiled up at him, laughing a little at her own silliness. She knew how much this meant to him though, and that's what made her so happy, knowing he'd be happy. " Congratulations!" She had to stand on her toes a bit but she managed a quick peck before she stood back down again. " Really, the whole game was quite exciting. If confusing."She added with a nod.

"It was very intense. I'm not so sure if I did so good in the first half but I was soooo nervous in the second half. But we did good! And hey.. I'm proud of Nigel. He didn't land in the Hospital Wing, did he?" Livvy said, laughing. Poor Nigel.. landed himself in the Hospital Wing four times already from Quidditch.

"YEAH! 3-Peat!" Cela echoed, still hyper and bouncing around in excitement. "You were all amazing! And Willow didn't kill anyone!"

Robert looked around the room casually in his search of Mari and sighed. Picking up his drink he took a large swallow and spun around as he heard the one voice he wanted from the one person he cared about. He swallowed quickly as she came up and tackled his stomach making a slight grunting sound. "Not so hard love, nasty fall off that broom in the first half." HIS BROOM!!! Oh he could cry. So much he had went through to hide it from his father and it would now need to be fixed. Bloody bludgers. He laughed at her excited state and kissed her back. "Thanks." He continued to laugh and gave her a hug, "Ohhh it just takes getting used to. That was the most fun I've had though. Intense."

Elizabeth practically bounced into the common room, her excitement growing as she saw the decorations again. It's so cool winning at Quidditch, she thought. She had changed out of her uniform and put her eagle necklace that she had gotten for Christmas back on. The cool weight on her neck was comforting, and she hadn't wanted it to get broken during the game. And taking it off was probably a good idea, considering how intense the match had gotten.

Anyway . . . as she got inside the room, she lit up in a grin as she saw Robert over at the food table with Qaz and Mari, and then saw Ludo with them. Running over, she tackled him before greeting everyone. "Hey!," she said animatedly, still bouncing a little. She wasn't sure if it was because of how intense the match had been, the fact that they were still in the lead with house points, or what, but she just couldn't calm down.

One hand around Juniper's and another holding the pompons, Melina made her way into the Common Room in a bouncy pace. She was just so proud of her house. She knew that pride was an awful thing, very awful indeed, but she couldn't stop herself. There were simply such great players in the team... Heck, the team had the BEST players in the entire school! Not that she knew a thing about Quidditch, but, well, if they had won, then they had to be great, right? Right!

Once she was inside, the red head quickly started to search for Willow. Now that girl deserved one veeeeeery biiiiig huuuuuuuuuuug. She had done an exceedingly amazing job and she needed to receive some kind of prize, right? And well, a hug was all Melly had to give. Sure, it wasn't something shiny and precious in a materialistic way, but, as far as she was concerned, it was something that meant much more. Besides, it was the only way the third year had to show her contentment and pride.

Now, if only she could find Willow...

Nodding at Livvy, she agrees. "Poor Nigel, has done well, and it's good he's not in the hospital wing again..." she says with a sigh.

I just don't understand, why can't I at even get to play in games she thinks frustratingly to herself.

Still wearing her Quidditch robes, the fifth year stepped inside the Ravenclaw common room, one of her hands playing absentmindedly with the tip of her long ponytail. There was a party, of course, and everyone was being loud - the radio, especially.

Willow was one hundred percent certain that the reason why it didn't bother her much was because they'd just won the Quidditch cup for the third year in a row.

However, as happy as she was, the hunger she was feeling was even bigger. And tired - she was tired, too. So the first thing the girl did was to go straight to the food table, not even paying attention to the people in there.

"Of course I didn't kill anyone, Celandine," Said Willow from over her shoulder after hearing the younger girl's comment. "I don't want Professor Vindictus to yell at me, you know?" Because clearly, that was the worst thing that could happen if she ended up killing someone during a Quidditch game.

Hmmm. Cake or candy?

Livvy smiled gently. "Yeah.. but he's a good player. And thank goodness he's not in the hospital wing again. But it'd be interesting to throw a celebratory party in the Hospital Wing," she said, grinning. Hm.. that would be quite fun. Shame though. Next time.

And in came the all mighty Willow. Livvy smiled and waved at the girl as she got up to get another cookie.

"Ooooh that's a good reason," Cela nodded joining the Quidditch captain at the table and eyeing the cake, "I don't like disappointing Professor Vindictus either." She added, seriously.

"But you were soooo amazing! Me and Copernicus and Plymouth and Rian and Livvy and Paris and Dom-in-ick were cheering sooooo hard!" Cela leaned over and sniffed the cake curiously, her eyes lighting up at the nommy smell.

"Yes, and I'm sure he would take points from Ravenclaw, too." Which reminded her about her homework. And OWLs. "And I don't want that. Not now that the house cup is practically ours." Nevermind about the death person and the fact that she could end up in Azkaban if that ever happened. Willow wasn't even thinking about that.

Cake or candy?

Cake. Candy for later.

Half-smiling at the girls enthusiasm, Willow took one slice of cake. "Thank you. I sort of heard you guys." Uh-huh. No need to tell Celandine that was a lie, but the truth was that she was grateful that they had been supporting Ravenc-- "Dominic was cheering for us?"

Now that she had some food in her stomach, Qaz wasn't quite so light headed, but she still felt like she was flying. What a game. What a win. Wonder what flavor of cake that is? Must investigate. She'd need her strength in order to get the next issue of the Ravie Reader out. What a headline...

Qaz headed over and got a large slab of cake. It was a celebration, after all.

She looked around at all the other players. They all worked so hard. She was really very proud to have even played a small part in their victory. It brought tears to her eyes...which she quickly wiped away before anybody noticed.

I bet I could produce quite the Patronus right now, she thought with a smile.

Mari stood back a little when Robert made that weird noise, one that indicated she had accidentally hurt him and she gingerly put a hand to his stomach, rubbing it lightly." I'm sorry," She said, apologetically but still smiling at him. She shrugged lightly. " You're welcome, and...I'm not so sure.I dont' think I'll ever get Quidditch." She smiled wider at him and leaned against him at little . " I'm glad you enjoyed it though. I was a little unsettled at times. I saw what that..the bludger? What it did to your broom," She said, wincing a little.

The moment they were inside the common room, Juniper let go of Melina's hand and stood on the tips of her toes. She had to congratulate Willow. Anti-nature the girl might be, but she was still the captain, and they had won. Plus, if she found Willow, the rest of the team would be nearby, right?

And there she was... over by the food. Juniper wove her way through the happy Ravenclaws to the Quidditch captain. Great. Kovac was talking to somebody. Well, Juniper could not just interrupt their conversation, but she could... she could... um. What could she do to get the older girl's attention, exactly?

Tap, tap.

Juniper finally summoned up all her courage and tapped Anti-Nature Girl on the shoulder. That way Kovac could wait until a pause in the conversation before turning her attention over to her. Or... something like that.

"I know! I'm working so hard on homework, it's bad enough that I've lost 30 points this term." Cela frowned a tiny bit, the fact that she was on top depite that, was completely lost on her.

Cela took a slice of cake too. "Oh you did? I wasn't sure you would but it still felt pretty good to be yelling for Ravenclaw, especially when so many people joined in." Celandine took a bite of her cake and let it melt in her mouth slowly before continuing, "Yeah! He sort of... well he was supporting both teams I think? Or pretending that he was, and I don't know why he'd do that, but he was yelling for Ravenclaw more. And I gave him a pom-pom. I don't think he was enjoying himself that much though. He looked sort of more agitated than normal, but not quite as agitated as the time I accidentally spilled water on him." Cela mulled over this and took another bite of cake. "Actually, Apart from Anna and Cale Newell, obviously, pretty much all the prefects were there and supporting Ravenclaw. No reason to mention that Cale Thornton had been supporting Tobi. Had Kayla been cheering? Cela didn't recall. "Evangeline and Clifford were hollering and waving pom-poms too." Cela waved her pom-poms in illustration.
