| | Hufflepuff Common Room After your journey through a door to the right of the main staircase in the Entrance Hall and down a staircase there, you find yourself standing before a still life painting. Upon giving the correct password, you are allowed access to a warm, welcoming underground room, decorated in the Hufflepuff house colours. Gathered around the large fireplace are several oversized and overfilled plump sofas, which resemble fluffy clouds, and a variety of comfortable armchairs scattered around for you to rest your weary bodies in.
A long table sits in the brightest part of the room (torches are lit all day long) for the students who would rather do their homework in here than in their dormitories or the library.
Portraits of past well-known Hufflepuffs hang on one wall, among them are Cedric Diggory and Nymphadora Tonks, who died in the dark days of You-Know-Who's power, as well as the Fat Friar. Remember and honour them as you walk to or from your dormitories.
Two perfectly round, barrel top doors are positioned on opposing sides of the common room. They both open to reveal underground tunnels which will lead you to your common rooms; boys on the right, girls on the left. |

Avery was full of questions and she didn't know why, she usually just kept to herself, but finally having someone to talk to besides her mother opened her up. Cadence thought really hard. There were lots of great places around the castle. Cadence's favorite place was the Room of Requirement, but that was sort of something that Avery needed to discover on her own. "Well, the lake is really pretty! A lot of people hang out there. Apparently there's a Jungle Gym this year, too. Every year the groundskeeper tries to do something a different on the grounds. I haven't been there yet, though."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Avery Isabella Grace Sixth Year | ♦ The Original Trouble Maker ♦ ♥ Hugger of the Trees ♥
Avery Isabella Grace glided into the common room. Her hazel eyes scanned for a familiar face. She hoped she could find more people in her house to be friends with. She didn't have many friends from other houses either.
Her skin was ivory and her eyes were hazel. She wore smokey eye shadow and her lips were ruby red. In her mouth she wore fake vampire fangs that you stuck to your canines. She didn't know why she wore them, she just liked to. Avery's hair was pitch black with a few extentions. She had a petite and elegant frame and she was around 5 feet tall. A bit short for a sixteen year old girl.

She skiped over and ploped her self into a chair looking around at how crowded the common room had already gotten. She noticed one girl inparticular who was by herself. Smiling at the girl, she wiggled her fingers at her.

Evelyn smiled, speaking sincerely of her excitement of enjoying the Quidditch competition, whether she was a spectator or a participant. "I hope I'll be ready. I'll try and get some practice before the try outs." Then Evelyn remembered something she had been meaning to ask her, "Miranda, I was wondering about the rules to do with broomsticks. Does the school have brooms we use for matches, or can I have my own broomstick from home posted here?"
Miranda seemed happy, maybe even a little hyped up, which just made Evelyn feel even more adventurous. Maybe, in a little while, Evelyn could have a quick look around the castle. There was a high chance that Evelyn would get lost. But someone will notice I've gone missing before anything too bad happens to me, right? It would be an awful shame for me to die on my first day here, Evelyn thought a little morbidly and laughed on the inside. Aw, this girl was nice. Miranda smiled crookedly at her talk about not making the team. Tryouts were soon here and she'd be forced to let people down when they realised they hadn't made it on the roster for this term. But Evelyn was positive, so that's good. "Well, don't give up yet, I'm sure you'll do fine." She smiled more sincerely this time. "Good, because practice makes PERFECT!" She put a finger in the air to accent the word. Hehe. "Hm?" Miranda bent her head down a little to hear what Evelyn was going to ask her. "Oh, yes the School has brooms. They are used mainly for the Flying lessons, but anyone who's on the team can borrow them if they don't have any of their own." Yep, yep. Miranda had been using them so far, but now that her custom made one was on her way, she'd be flyyyiiing hiiiiigh! "Yes, ofcourse you can have your own. I ordered a broomstick and it's hopefully on it's way here hehe. The rules are that they first years can't have their own broomsticks. But you're a third year right? So, there's no problem there."

"Hey, Miranda! Get all the food off you eventually then?" she winked, plopping herself down in the nearest available space, and smiling at those that her friend was talking to. "Hello there, I'm Sarah, your friendly neighbourhood prefect.Nice to meet you all." Hearing her name being called, Miranda turned around and saw that it was Prefect Sarah. She felt herself blush, not because of the food comment, but because of what she'd done. "Yeah...I think. Why, do I still have something on my face?" She asked alarmed and started to brush away what probably wasn't there with her hands.
She could see how beat Sarah was looking. Prefecting must be really hard. "Hey are you okay? How's Prefecting going?" Miranda smiled gently and sat down next to her. Quote:

She turned back and walked into the room once more, coming over to her friend. "Hi there," she smiled, Mr. Marbles peeking at her from behind a few strands of hair. Seeing someone walk closer, her eyes looked up and there was Emalyn again! Woot! "Heeeey, what you been up to?" She asked happily and then noticed something poking out between Emalyn's hair. "Hai there!" she waggled a finger at it. And then she narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips. "Did you sign up for tryouts?" Miranda would have to skip down there soon. She was pretty curious to see who had already jotted down their names on the parchment!

Her hazel eyes were intriging and seemed to be endless as if her eyes were full of depth. Her scent was like strawberries and green apples; tangy but sweet. "I'm in my sixth year", Avery said. Her voice was as smooth as silk and very tantalizing, as if she could convince anyone to do anything.

"Good, I'm glad. So, how's your brother, mum and or dad?" Kay asked. She knew that Kylie really loved her family. "Did you give your brother all that candy we got me?" Remember the day they went shopping.
"I did." Kylie laughed, remembering her brothers response. "He loved it. But he got a much larger surprise in the long run." She looked at her watch, deciding it was time enough she went looking for some of her other friends. "I need to get going. But we'll go out for lunch or something soon, right?" Kylie asked.

She couldn't stop staring at them. Then when she started to speak she noticed the fangs in her mouth. "Are those real?"She pointed and stared, wondering if they were real or not. gaining back her composure she went back to peting Perseus she remembered the girl introducing herself. "Oh...hey...I'm Arya. I'm a first year."

It's unique" Avery was a strange person but she was a great friend.

Anza lost track of her new friend, and frowned, slapping a hand over her mouth to stem a flow of curses as she got turned around. ust then, the fat friar who had greeted her on the way in, flew through the wall behind her, and she pivoted seeing- the enterance! She flew through it, and gasped. Wow. it was cozy, and pretty, and made her feel instantly like laughing, or like she was in love, though she neither found anything funny, nor was she particularly besotted. She took a seat, and looked around, hoping to see a face equally friendly.

"Just getting settled in for another term. And watching people." she looked around the common room and let out another cackle. But she was NOT a stalker! Ema could feel the little pygmy puff waddling away from her hair to get a better look at Miranda before it bounced back to it's hiding spot. Ema nodded, looking sideways to see what Mr. Marbles was doing. She turned her gaze back to Miranda when she heard the question. "Ohhh yes! I did." she gave the Hufflepuff Captain her bestest-crazy-about-quidditch-you-is-the-captain-maybe-i'll-suck-up-to-you smile. Pfft, Miranda was Miranda, no need for sucking up. So Ema turned the 'enthusiasm notch' down a little bit. "I just - BOOP! - put all my itty bitty information on there. So yes, I did. And I resisted the urge to draw little pictures around the form." the evil crazy smile was back.
...she really needed to stop that. "I'm so excited for tryouts." she added, letting the smile drop and trying to look normal again.

She giggled as Perseus climbed up on her head just to come tumbling back down and repeat the process again. Arya had to wrestle him down in her lap just to stop him."I like your name too, both of our names are unique. So what do ya like to do for fun?"Se wondered if they had more in common besides unique names.

Miranda squinted at Emalyn, a look that told 'You're up to something mischevious, aren't you'. She knew her friend. She was one hyper girl and Miranda loved her for that. "Who are you watching?" Was there someone watch-worthy at school? Miranda turned and scanned the room, but couldn't really see anything out of the ordinary. The puffy ball on Ema's shoulder moved and Miranda's eyes fell on it again. She was just about to wag her finger at it again when... Quidditch! Right! "Thats gooooooood!" Because why wouldn't Emalyn want to? Sadface. And then her friend was making the most peculiar face and Miranda had to shake her head and laugh at how insane her Chaser buddy could be. "Awww, I was hoping you'd draw something. It could use your artwork on there." Hehe! Cus, it wouldn't hurt to liven up the parchement, ya know?
Miranda grinned at Emalyn as her own 'crazy smile' was back on her face. Eeek. Tryouts. The one thing Miranda was dreading...after picking out the team, practices and the games. Oh and OWLs. Hehe. "Yes me to," This was no lie. However nervwracking it could be, Quidditch was Quidditch and whenever it was played, it was helluva fun! "Hope people show up, it's gonna be quite interesting to see how everyone plays. I wonder if Kaika's little brother has signed up." Oh and this reminded her. "By the way, have you seen him yet?" Because seriously, it was time Miranda met the boy. Quote:

Miranda nodded interested at the choice that the little girl was going to try out for, but she couldn't help but chuckle at her question. "Oh... I'm going to be a Chaser, I think." She smiled softly and nodded. Should she show her Captain's badge? Naaah, there was no need to flaunt it. "I hear Chasers are the fastest, well exept for Seekers." Miranda winked, more to get the girl enthusiastic about her choice. "Have you played Quidditch much?" VALUABLE INFO! HEHEHE!

"I dunno, just everyone...I kinda just - well, I actually kinda dozed off in here. I wasn't really paying attention. But I did...observe people. Just listen in on stuff. No one in particular." she looked around, but she didn't know too many of the people. Transfers, newbies, etc. Plus she had never really met anyone aside from...well, her long-time friends. This term she had been doing pretty good so far, though. She had managed to meet at least five new people! YESSSS!!
Ema nodded encouragingly. "People will show up, don't worry. I will, at least. How entertaining would it be just to watch me try to be chaser, beater, keeper and seeker all at once?" she chuckled. Ema looked around. No mini Kaika here. "Hmm, me too. I wonder how much Kaika talked to him about it...Quidditch, I mean. I haven't even seen him yet, though, so maybe I have seen him. I mean, I don't know what he looks like, anyway."
MINI KAIKA + BOY FEATURES! How hard is it, Ema?

Her skin was ivory and her eyes were hazel. She wore smokey eye shadow and her lips were ruby red. In her mouth she wore fake vampire fangs that you stuck to your canines.

A bit short for a sixteen year old girl.
"Hi..what's your name? I'm Jennifer Riddle..call me Jenny, if you'd like. You're really pretty." Jenny complimented. She knew the fangs were fake..she wouldn't be afraid if they were real. Maybe.. maybe Lily was a werewolf. Jenny thought of her sister. No way! |

Professor Vindictus is arranging some flying classes that might be fun for you to attend. They're especially designed for kids who'd like to learn more." Well duh, it was a class afterall. But Miranda smiled at the young Hufflepuff. "Anyways, I'll be around if you want to sign up!" And, if they ever wanted to chat. "Okay, I guess I'll try, but no promises." Emily said, and smiled widely. Sitting back into the couch, Emily began flipping through the pages of her notebook. Drawings of inanimate objects popped out of all the many drawings. Those were usually the ones that looked the scarriest.

They would always me play seeker just because I was the smallest but I'm usually better as a chaser. What was your first tryout like anyway?" she added looking at the girl thoughtfully.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Nunually Mustang Fourth Year | <3<3 Keep fighting, it will turn out okay <3<3
Nunually had been sleeping for a while and felt odd. She had heard a voice something that sounded like people talking, yet she did not wake up at least she didn't. While still being half asleep she slowly stood up her eyes were mostly close but not completely shut. She didn't stretch or talk to anyone but began to walk towards the window were she slowly meet the wall. BUMP
Still the force wasn't enough to wake her up, she continued to try to walk through the wall when suddenly Jeremy the cat woke up and walked over to his owner. He had seen this happen before, he knew what must be done he slowly retracted his claws and jumped on the table getting closer to Nunually and scratched her on her right arm.
Nunually's eyes widened and she looked around. "Umm..." she said as it took her a couple of simple minutes to realize that her body was awake but her mind was still off. She turned to see her arm bleeding a little and her eyes widened it didn't hurt and it wasn't something big that she should have worried about. It had been a while since she had done something like this. "Oh no not this again.." she mumbled to herself hoping no one had noticed. "thanks Jeremy I don't think me falling off the window would have been a good thing." she told him and showed him gratitude by scratching him behind his ear. "Arigato. Thank you." she told him softly

"Well, don't give up yet, I'm sure you'll do fine." She smiled more sincerely this time. "Good, because practice makes PERFECT!" She put a finger in the air to accent the word. Hehe. "Hm?" Miranda bent her head down a little to hear what Evelyn was going to ask her. "Oh, yes the School has brooms. They are used mainly for the Flying lessons, but anyone who's on the team can borrow them if they don't have any of their own." Yep, yep. Miranda had been using them so far, but now that her custom made one was on her way, she'd be flyyyiiing hiiiiigh! "Yes, ofcourse you can have your own. I ordered a broomstick and it's hopefully on it's way here hehe. The rules are that they first years can't have their own broomsticks. But you're a third year right? So, there's no problem there." "Good, because I asked my mum to send it, along with my owl. I don't know when she'll remember, so I guess I can use a school broom for tryouts if I need to."
Evelyn didn't know how Miranda managed to do it. Evelyn hadn't been at all interested in playing Quidditch at school until she had spoken to Miranda. "You're a good captain," Evelyn complimented her, "It seemed like half of Hufflepuff were down there putting their name on the list." Quote:

"Hey, Miranda! Get all the food off you eventually then?" she winked, plopping herself down in the nearest available space, and smiling at those that her friend was talking to. "Hello there, I'm Sarah, your friendly neighbourhood prefect.Nice to meet you all." Quote:

She asked alarmed and started to brush away what probably wasn't there with her hands.
She could see how beat Sarah was looking. Prefecting must be really hard. "Hey are you okay? How's Prefecting going?" Miranda smiled gently and sat down next to her. Another girl sat down nearby. If she's a friend of Miranda's, then she must be awesome.
Evelyn tried not to laugh when she brought up the food fight Miranda got into with that Slytherin boy. It had been Evelyn's favourite thing about the whole feast, but she didn't want to hurt Miranda's feelings. "Hi, Sarah. Nice to meet you. I'm Evelyn. Evelyn Rochester." Quote:

She flew through it, and gasped. Wow. it was cozy, and pretty, and made her feel instantly like laughing, or like she was in love, though she neither found anything funny, nor was she particularly besotted. She took a seat, and looked around, hoping to see a face equally friendly. Another girl came and sat down near Evelyn. She looked just as in love with the common room as Evelyn was. Evelyn didn't know what to say to her, so she just smiled at her, hoping she would see it.

Apparently there's a Jungle Gym this year, too. Every year the groundskeeper tries to do something a different on the grounds. I haven't been there yet, though." "Oh that's pretty cool! I can't wait to explore the ground. Well Cadence I think my list of questions is finally over" Avery laughed she didn't realized that she had asked about a hundred questions untill afterward! Avery sat down on the floor and watched the fire for a while. Quote:

She took a seat, and looked around, hoping to see a face equally friendly. Avery had lost track on Anza in her rush to find Cadence and Nymphy but after sitting by the fire in silenece for a while she began to look for her again. When she finally found her she ran over to her. "Hey Anza, sorry about that, I didn't mean to bail on you. I was just so excited to see some of the people I had met on the train. So how are you doing?" Avery blurted that out so fast she wondered if Anza even understood half of it. |

So what do ya like to do for fun?"Se wondered if they had more in common besides unique names. Elan walked into the Huffie common room and looked for a place to sit and found a place on a loveseat beside them. He took the place farthest from them, but listened to their conversation. It wasn't often that you saw an older student talking so nicely to a firstie. He smiled to them both as he rested his head against the back of the seat.

She could see how beat Sarah was looking. Prefecting must be really hard. "Hey are you okay? How's Prefecting going?" Miranda smiled gently and sat down next to her. A blush? How sweet. Sarah chuckled at the look on Miranda's face as she got herself comfy on the sofa that was now her butt's home. "No, no, don't worry, there's nothing on your face," she giggled, waving a dismissive hand. "I was wondering how you got on after, though.Making you two work together was my own brand of punishment.But thank you for doing it." Sarah gave her friend a beaming smile, before rubbing her eyes and scratching the back of her neck.
Blinking several times to unfog her eyes, Sarah peered over at Miranda. "Oh yeah, I'm fine, just a bit tired is all.The Prefecting is - hard work.Showing alot of first years around is not as easy as it sounds," she let out a snort of laughter.A very un-ladylike habit she was yet to break. "Classes start tomorrow..." she sighed, putting her hands over her face and yawning. "It all starts so quickly once we're here, doesn't it?" Quote:

It had been Evelyn's favourite thing about the whole feast, but she didn't want to hurt Miranda's feelings. "Hi, Sarah. Nice to meet you. I'm Evelyn. Evelyn Rochester." Trying to keep any more yawning at bay...it was a bit rude after all...Sarah stretched out her hand to the young girl who had just spoken to her. "Nice to meet you as well, Evelyn Rochester.That's a lovely name," she grinned, focusing her eyes on the girls face. "Did I hear you mention quidditch? Signed up for tryouts yet?" |

He smiled to them both as he rested his head against the back of the seat. Willow entered the Huffelpuff Common room and did a quick scan. There were quite a lot of people lounging around. Spying a spot on a loveseat by the fire, she headed for it. There was already a person seated there, so when she arrived, Willow inquired, "Excuse me? Is it alright if I sit here? Will I be bugging you if I do?" Willow smiled at the teen-aged boy and waited for a response.

Elan looked up as a girl his age he'd never met came in and asked to sit next to him. He shook his head no and stood, as he'd been taught. "Nope. It won't bother me at all. Especially if it doesn't bother you. Please."
