| | Entrance to the Ravenclaw Common Room
If you've reached the seventh floor corridor, then you have almost reached the Ravenclaw Common Room. Keep going until you find the Eagles' tower and the spiral staircase that leads up to it.
At the top of the staircase is a door without a doorknob or keyhole but a bronze knocker in the shape of an eagle. In order to enter the common room, a person must answer a riddle asked by the eagle knocker; if they answer incorrectly, they must wait for someone else who gets it right. This might lead overconfident non-Ravenclaws to believe that they could break into the common room at any time, but then they would have over-exerted themselves climbing all the way up there only to be made to feel stupid by a simple door knocker.
If you're waiting on a friend, you can have a seat on the staircase leading up to the knob-less door and feel grateful that you don't have to walk all this way every day just to go to bed. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maria Ellie Thompson Hufflepuff Third Year | 49% Dalmatian | | 51% Human Damon looked at her for a second when she smiled, "They changed, didn't they?... At least I know the spell's working then." He sighed, "As I get happier my looks go to their natural self, get sadder, go back to Ash." |

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey Tay smiled, "What a delightful spell, what about your hair though?" She looked at him.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maria Ellie Thompson Hufflepuff Third Year | 49% Dalmatian | | 51% Human Damon shrugged, "Not everything changes instantly, because not just those change, everything does." He knew he had to still have the eyeliner, "As the happiness grows, the eyeliner'll go, then the hair, and then the clothes if they don't fit the character," Damon nodded. |

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey Tay nodded, "Okay..." She looked up at him and smiled, "I signed up for qudditich tryouts..." To see if a kiss would clear the eyeliner off, she kissed him lightly.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maria Ellie Thompson Hufflepuff Third Year | 49% Dalmatian | | 51% Human Damon smiled, "Good luck," His eyeliner disappeared as she told him, "I'm sure you'll do wonderful as you always do." When she kissed him his hair shortened slightly and went red at the roots. |

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey Tay noticed that his eyeliner was gone right before the kiss so she was surpised that when she pulled away, slowly, that it had shorten some and went red at the roots. Inside she was smirking but didnt let it show. "You are sweet, Damon." Taylor stroked his cheek.

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey Tay watched as his hair reddened the rest of the way. She was fascinated at the spell and noticed that his eyes were closed. Taylor searched his face then kissed his cheek, standing up.

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey Tay grew bored of the little game she was playing on Damon, "Of, course you do." She sighed and looked at her nails.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maria Ellie Thompson Hufflepuff Third Year | 49% Dalmatian | | 51% Human Damon sighed, "I should be going, I have a class." He started to turn as the eyeliner came back. That had to show that he was trying to hide something, because Damon hated to go to classes anymore. |

| Wibbly Wobbly | Timey Wimey "Whatever." She sighed went to the Ravenclaw door, knocked the brass knocker and answered the question. Tay disappeared into the Ravenclaw common room.

Awarlesta looked up the staircases for any sign of Presley. She sat on the stairs and placed her bag on her knees. She sat patiently for her cousin.

She was about to knock and wait for her riddle when she almost tripped over Awarlesta. "Oh, sorry!" she exclaimed. Then she looked at her. She wasn't supposed to be here. And it was kind of a long hike up the stairs just to see Presley when they'd been at dinner a few minutes previously. She sat down next to the eleven year old. "What's up?"

Awar opened her little velvet bag, "Manolo and my mother sent you a late birthday present." She reached deep into her bag. She had put a lot of things in there since they sent it to her. Finally, she pulled out something. " They gave you this." She handed it to her smiling.

Her aunt and cousin were so kind. Presley had never not been on good terms with Manolo. She beamed. "It's adorable!" She would have to wear it sometime soon, and send her aunt a picture of it on, so she knew Presley liked it. "I'll be sure to write to them and say thank you!" It really was an adorable dress. "For a minute, when I saw you, I thought you were trying to get into my common room," she laughed. "Mine doesn't douse you in a foul potion. No matter what house you're in, if you answer the riddle it'll let you in," she explained. She carefully left out the part where most Ravenclaw firsties can't answer the riddles, and sometimes even the older claws had trouble. It might have been a little mean of her, but her tone almost dared Awarlesta to try it sometime. It would at least be harmless amusement for Presley to watch her.

"Well, us Hufflepuffs have to protect ourselves." She lowered her voice to a whisper. "The other houses are really jealous of us." She said winking.
She looked at her cousin with a concerned look, "Presley...you look like you've had a rough week. How's everything?" |

She looked at her cousin with a concerned look, "Presley...you look like you've had a rough week. How's everything?" Presley actually laughed out loud at Awar's whispered comment. Jealous? No way. Trying to prank more like. "Oh yes, my house is so jealous of the Hufflepuffs," she rolled her eyes.
She could tell. Just by looking at Presley her cousin knew about her bad week? Hadn't this been the reason she'd ranted at Gwen? So she could get it all out and nobody would know her week had been so awful? "I--" she started, then abruptly stopped. "I've been okay." She lied. No reason to burden the eleven year old with all of Presley's screwed up issues. "What about you? Have you been doing alright?"

She knew something was wrong, but it wouldn't do any good to pick at her emotions. "I've been okay. Classes have been really fun and Mum was talking about going to Spain next holiday to visit Grandma and Grandpa Santiago. You should come with us, Presley." She tugged on her sleeve.
