The official home of the Lions, the Gryffindor common room, is found on the seventh floor of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Because the entrance to the common room is the portrait of the Fat Lady, Lions must know the password and speak it to the Fat Lady in order to get through.
"Carriwitchet!"
Remember that word...and keep it a close secret, for it's the current password you'll need to speak in order for the Fat Lady to swing away from the hole and allow you entrance to Gryffindor Tower. Once you're lucky enough to crawl through, you'll find that the common room is a circular area full of squashy armchairs, tables, and a bulletin board. A window looks out onto the grounds of the school, and a large fireplace takes up one entire wall. It's the perfect place to relax and hang out after a long day of classes.
That is, unless you're in need of a nap or ready for a good night's rest. In that case, there are two doors leading off from the common room that open to spiral staircases. Boys dormitories are upstairs and to the right, while girls dormitories are upstairs and to the left.
For whatever reason you're here, make sure you take good care of your home away from home. There's bound to be a perfect, your Head of House, or maybe even a house elf lurking nearby.
Anna was glad that the girl calmed down and even smiled. "Thank You. Anna enough old name, which is very popular in Russia. It means fairness and kindness. My mother is Russian, and the father of an englishman and he often calls me just Ann or Ani." She lowered her eyes and correct her bracelet with red stones said "And that's Plumeria very unusual and beautiful name. It has some special meaning?"
" The flying professor is the tops? Sounds cool!" Anna smiled "If I can overcome their problems with a broom, then be sure to I'm join you next year! Only now I'm believe in this weak ." She said laughing. "But you're doing great! I am sure that you all will turn out!"
"I agree with you." She said with a nod "Every man to his door." She smiled and looked before her as if thinking about something. "But in my case I'm tired of being a loner. Therefore, in this year actively arms with the questions to all who will be on my way." She said it and laughed. "But to be honest the past three years, I was simply closed in myself. Then I didn't want company, I had letters from the parents. But now something has changed." In her eyes filled with sadness. "I just realized I lost three years in vain. Be a loner difficult and dangerous, because these people too many dig in their soul." She said and smiled at him, but her eyes remained sadness.
" You will love flying class" William told Anna." You will overcome your flying with a broom, noquestion about ot" William said to Anna." Just enjoy yourself in flying class and listen to the profeesor" Willaim explained to Anna.

" Oh, not getting ready, sorry" William told Vanessa. " Yes. I do read too, but not as much as I should read" William explained to Vanessa." Potions is a great class" Willaim smiled. " Nice to meet you Vanesa" William smiled again. " Last term, my favorite classes were Herbalogy and Ancinet Runes. but I am not sure about this term" William said to Vanessa..
Maxwell smiled at Her excitement. "Are zoo's strange in the Wizarding World?" Maxwell wasn't sure if it was a stupid question but He didn't spend much time with other Wizards growing up.
Josephine grinned "Nope, they're cool... but weird is cool! If you want you could come with me and my family in the summer! It would be fun, wouldn't it?" she asked.
"I'm the only child in the family." Said Anne dreamily. "But I would very much like a brother or a sister. It seems to me that the more the family so it was friendly and fun." She smiled. "All your brothers and sisters were studying at Hogwarts?"
"It's just my older sister Ronnie. She's a second year," she replied, looking up at the ceiling. "All of my brothers have left hogwarts - Ben and Malachy have only just left. And my little sister Syralia isn't starting for another four years. I've always wondered what it'd be like to be an only child," she said starting to imagine. "But I suppose the Weasleys have always been a big family. I don't know where I'd be without all of my brothers to protect me. And Ronnie for that matter..."
Josephine grinned "Nope, they're cool... but weird is cool! If you want you could come with me and my family in the summer! It would be fun, wouldn't it?" she asked.
Maxwell was excited to be invited to go somewhere with other wizards. "Of course just send Me an Owl this summer. But I'm sure we'll write anyway." He said with a slight blush.
Carter chuckled when he heard Rafe. "Thanks mate." he said happily. "I'm still getting used to it... although, I guess it helps that Destiny has my badge. It still feels a bit weird."
Almost like he was the one that stole it.
Plus, it still had a bit of a bad luck omen in his mind...
"I think you should." he said with a sideways grin. "I'm sure it would be a welcome break for you."
He frowned for a second. They'd have to have this conversation eventually. "Listen... I want you to know nothing happened this summer." He then lowered his voice. "She did show me a few of your little notes.... She wasn't too happy about that."
That was an understatement.
"Ooooh, a badge well aren't you becoming Mr. Fancy Pants, Sinatra?" Rafe chuckled. Hmm... to be on the team again? That wasn't his concern, Rafe was more worried about being able to handle taking authority from Carter.
Carter was a good mate and all, but just the idea of knowing someone so well and taking him seriously would be an adjustment. "Well, I would have to try out...who knows? You might have some firsties that are way faster than me? I'm a bit rusty and getting old after all." Rafe hadn't been on a broom in a long time. He apparated everywhere he traveled these days. "What position are you thinking of taking up?" Rafe had seen the captains work mainly as Seeker, so he was curious if Carter would be up for that additional stress.
Rafe crossed his arms as he listened to Carter's tone change to something more serious. "Nothing happened?" Rafe was confused. Did he mean someone trying to attack them? Or maybe something between him and Marilyn? Rafe did get the reports, so he knew almost everything that took place between them. "And yeah... those notes... I just wanted her to know that someone was doing something to protect her. If she knew it was me writing, I don't think she would've ever opened them. It was the only way." Rafe hoped Carter wasn't getting the impression that Rafe was going to move in on Marilyn or anything. That wasn't his intention at all. He was actually completely content with Marilyn and Carter being together. Even if Rafe wasn't Marilyn's boyfriend, he didn't care as long as she was happy and safe in this world.

Josephine clapped her hands and giggled "Okay! I'll write to you and you will be able to spend some time with me and Joseph! Dani will probably be there too! It will be so much fun" she said, her eyes gleaming happily and changing from emerald-green to teal.

Carter laughed. "Well, the badge makes the man." Or something like that...
He was pretty sure that was a saying.
He laughed at this. "Well, I'd hate to see 13 as your Quidditch peak." he said with a shrug. "I'm pretty sure it's like riding a bicycle. You never forget how to play." Of course, Rafe probably didn't know what it was like to ride a bicycle... but that wasn't the point.
He let out a relieved sigh that Rafe didn't accuse him or freak out. That was good. (Not that anything had really happened. They both just had a perfectly lovely summer.)
"You ended up irritating her more. Space might be the best thing there." He said with a frown.
Wait a second... what was he doing? Was he giving Rafe Marilyn advice?
As in, the girl that he'd just spent an amazing summer with?

Josephine clapped her hands and giggled "Okay! I'll write to you and you will be able to spend some time with me and Joseph! Dani will probably be there too! It will be so much fun" she said, her eyes gleaming happily and changing from emerald-green to teal.
Maxwell had a large smile on His face "Sounds wonderful, Josie." His smile turned to amazement when He saw Her eyes change. "Wow, how did You do that? They're so pretty. Your eyes, I mean." the teal color put butterflies in his belly.

Josephine blushed wildly "Wha- Oh, thank you! I- I mean- Uuh" she stuttered "My eyes change whenever my emotions change, it's weird" she giggled "My dad's eyes are green and my mom's are blue, my brother's eyes change aswell but it's only when he's angry"

Maxwell blushed as She did realizing the awkward moment he had created. "You're welcome, it's not weird. It's perfect. Mine change when I'm angry too but, they go from brown to red."
Josephine nodded "I would've liked to start with DADA"
"Yeah, that's what I was thinking, DADA would be a great class to start off the semester with!" Sage said agreeing with Josephine.

"Yeah I have some more, help yourself." Ella said putting the bag on the table after taking one for herself.
"Yes, I do like them!" Sage said nodding her head,"So if your parents are muggles, what kind of muggle jobs do they have?"
She had no idea what kind of jobs muggles had, but she did know that her Muggle Grandad worked as a technician, whatever that was?

"Ahh, Im sure its not all your fault Ronnie." It didnt really matter to him anymore about the Quidditch Cup last year. Yes, a bit embarrassing but its just a cup, who cares.

"I guess you're right." Ronnie agreed. "Maybe just some of my fault." she said smiling. "Hopefully, we'll try harder this year. I'll make sure not to break any brooms." she said laughing.
Maxwell blushed as She did realizing the awkward moment he had created. "You're welcome, it's not weird. It's perfect. Mine change when I'm angry too but, they go from brown to red."
Josephine smiled "That's cool! I like red, it's my second favorite color after green! In my old music school my eyes usually stayed color olive green because that's the color they take when I'm sad or angry" she glared at the distance.

Maxwell looked concerned for her. "What emotion does teal mean?" He asked with a smile.

" Thanks" William told him. " I really do have the spirit" William said to Carter." Can I paint Gryffindor colors on my face?" William asked Cater.

"Wow, it really has been four years? I guess I was a bit more preoccupied with things than I thought..." Rafe was always busy even when he wasn't at school. He was either at Dumstrang or off rescuing people. It felt as though he grew up quite quickly, but he never really thought of himself as a kid. After all, how many eleven year old's had facial hair?
"A bi-sickle? Who would want to ride those puny coins?" Rafe shook his head. He never really understood the whole muggle lingo, but Larentia gave him a lecture on how fascinating their lifestyles were compared to wizards and wants to start a division in the pack that helps them. Rafe was always open to expanding. "And why would I ride something that's made of silver? Don't you remember what I am?" Rafe's tone was more stern and he gave Carter a low growl. Then after a few seconds he broke into a smile, "I'm just kidding mate...Silver doesn't really hurt us!" He laughed.
"I'm always irritating Marilyn these days and I can't blame her for wanting space after telling her everything, but I'm just happy to see that she's safe." Carter was a good chap and knew Marilyn could be perfectly happy with him. "I've extended my hand in friendship to her and that's all I ask of her. And even if she can't do that, just knowing she's alive and never has to worry about her father again and can live a life where's she's free to choose is fine by me."

"The differences are always there, but believe me it is better friends than your family you'll never find." Anna smiled at the girl. "They'll never betray and will not leave in trouble."
