| | |  Room of Requirement
 Found on the seventh floor is a secret room known as the Room of Requirement or the Come and Go Room. This particular room is famous for transforming itself into whatever the witch or wizard that finds it needs at that moment in time. While many may have heard of this room, properly finding it is no easy task. Most come across it without even knowing during moments of great need and are unable to find it again.
However, those that are attentive to detail will remember that the hidden entrance to this enchanted room can be found opposite of the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy. Simply locate this depiction of a man attempting to teach trolls in pink tutus how to do the ballet and walk past it three times, clearly thinking about what you need. After a few moments, a door will appear and allow you entrance inside whatever room you desire at that moment in time. Just keep in mind that the room has its limitations -- you, unfortunately, won't be finding any food in here.

So no one gave her weird looks or otherwise indicated they were uncomfortable with the head girl's presence. Good! Hopefully they were all too preoccupied with their lines (the ones who accused her, she wasn't worried about everyone) or they'd come to their senses and realized she was innocent.
The changes to the script were okay with her, her role wasn't changed at all anyway. Creeper. She supposed a Creeper was fitting after her creepy performance as Sweeney Todd.
The idea about changing the kiss scene wasn't something she was going to argue over. She merely watched it unfold and smiled when Tenacius kissed Olivia. She was happy for them both.
But someone else wasn't happy - Moaning Myrtle! Kitty gave a small start when she entered the room and started crying. Which was sort of annoying but Flynn's remarks were only likely to make her even more upset. "You're right Myrtle, we are very lucky," she said sympathetically in an attempt to deescalate any potential conflict. "I wish you could do everything we can do, I can't even imagine what it's like to be in your shoes. Personally I'm honored that you're joining us today, and I'm sure everyone else agrees."

WAIT WAIT WAIT.
A cast change!?!?!
Professor Myers CLEARLY saw the error in his judgement and gave Zoryn a MUCH better role this time. The Gryffindor was so excited to see her name at the top of the paper that she practically snatched the list out of his hand when he came around to hand it to her.
She drowned out whatever seemed to be going on between Flynn and Jessa while she skimmed the list... Only to find that she was STILL the GROUND?!??!?!
"This is bogus," she muttered to the person standing next to her.
And for the record, Kitty. Zoryn Spinnet did NOT agree. How did a GHOST get a better role than she did?????? WHAT THE HECK??

Was Char one of the only people not complaining? It seemed like it. She was pretty cheerful about the whole thing even if Professor Myers hadn't decided that her awesome idea of auditioning for the fountain was exactly that: awesome.
Happily, she was just sitting there waiting for all the hub bub to die down, and hoping that as a creeper - one of only three! That she'd get to use some cool magic techniques in part of her creeping. They'd make a good team, she was sure, her and her fellow creepers.

Yep, he saw that eye roll. He had just chosen to ignore it. Especially with the next words out of Flynn's mouth. Really? He did realise that this was acting, right?
Another thing he was ignoring was Kitty. Oh no, he hadn't forgotten the whole thing before break, or gotten over it. He was just choosing to ignore the girl until concrete proof that she wasn't a Cultist showed up.
Anyway, back to the drama currently unfolding with the script. "I don't mind taking over Sir Luckless. Probably would be easier on Tenacius' back, anyway." And there was that twinkle again. The one that indicated that he was teasing. But seriously though, he was the smaller of the two. Plus, it would get him away from the head girl. Also, why, exactly, was Moping Moaning Myrtle a part of the cast? She was one ghost who definitely lived (no pun intended) up to her name, nearly shattering people's eardrums while she was at it.

"Narrators----GET UP THERE!" Paul motioned to the stage for his NARRRRRRATORS.
Ahem.
It was a very good thing Derfael was off book, then. Paul nodded at him approvingly. "Get up there then, m'boy!"
He ignored Flynn completely. Whiting out parts? Please. Paul wouldn't allow it, whether he and Jesse Cambridge hated it or not. THEY WOULD NOT BE DIVERGING FROM THE SCRIPT TOO MUCH. The Slytherin merely got an eyebrow raise from the Herbologist before he almost COMPLETELY lost his cool when MYRTLE arrived. "Myrtle---" Paul snapped, glaring. "You're in the play and you play a VERY important role, the STONE. Without you, the show would NOT go on," he said as he cleared his throat. "Now be quiet while we rehearse or I'll be kicking you out!" How would he kick a ghost out? He had no idea yet.
He heard Miss Cambridge and nodded. "Flynn---what she said, exactly. Now...pipe down if you will. Derf and Abey have LINES to deliver."
Ronan and Flyn would be the DEATH OF HIM. He rubbed his face. "EVERYONE SEATED. DERFAEL AND ABEY, IF YOU WILL!"

And Olivia had, too, been distracted by Moaning Myrtle entering the scene. She was about to wave to the ghost before she started howling about. Oh Merlin. This was going to be.... something...
She was so distracted by the ghost that she didn't even notice that there was someone stealing a kiss from her until she felt lips on her cheek. A smile lit up her face when she felt the lips on against her cheek. The boyfriend was being quite cheeky, wasn't he? Hmm... She turned around to see him just in time to place said horse mask on his head. Well. He wasted no time getting into character. She shuffled a little closer to him as students began speaking about the removal of scenes and who was cast as who. She snuck her hand into Ace's and then leaned in. "Want to sit down together?" she suggested to him as she watched Professor Myers command people to get on stage.

Philippa, true to her word, had slipped in after pretty Felicity and eyed everyone with distaste. Yes, distaste, because almost all of them had better roles than her but were obviously less talented than she was. So, distaste.
CAST CHANGES WHAT??!
Zooming up to Myers as fast as her legs could carry her, she grabbed the new list from his hands. Where was she, where was she.... HANG ON. Whut. NO. That's- UGH, he messed up AGAIN. ;_____;
Looking up at Zoryn, she really had to agree and nodded her head before she caught sight of her name on Zoryn's paper. OI. Looking at her own to double check, she saw that indeed PROFESSOR MYERS HAD MISSPELLED HER NAME.
The RUDENESS. The ... the... the R U D E N E S S. Stomping up to him, yes even in his Screaming Director mode she was not afraid of him, Philippa was about to tell him ALL the things when he yelled for Derf and Abey Botros to start and she chickened out. She didn't really want him to be mad at her and kick her out completely, that would be the absolute worst thing ever and she'd have to leave Hogwarts. Because priorities.
So, instead of yelling, she brought forth pitiful tears and gently tapped Myers' shoulder. SEE THIS IS ACTING. WERE THEY WATCHING. "P-p-professorrrrrrrrr," oh how sad she was, most sad, the saddest, "you spelled my name wrong... does that mean you don't think I'm important to the play?" Sniffle sniffle.

*SOB SOB* The Slytherin boy's (Flynn) mean words made Myrtle burst into loud tears. He wanted her to cry him a river? FINE! SHE WOULD! "A-as m-many times as it t-takes to make you r-remember!" she shrieked, flying right up to the mean boy's face.
Then the Head Girl was talking to her. "A-at least someone here k-knows how to r-respect the dead!" she sniffled.
OOH! That mean Slytherin was going to get it when the professor caught him picking on POOR MISERABLE MOPING MOANING MYRTLE!
*WIBBLE WIBBLE* What? He was snapping at her?! AND he rejected her idea for giving the Stone more lines! But WORST OF ALL he was threatening to kick her out! OOOH, THE INJUSTICE! "Well, that's no reason to snap at me!" she glared back at him through her tears.
She flew into a corner and continued crying quietly. NOOOOBODY CARES ABOUT UGLY FAT MISERABLE MOANING MYRTLE!!!

Oh, SHUT UP. It was not his fault that his audition had been better. Sorry not sorry, dude.
Flynn rolled his eyes - almost dramatically - but before he could say anything, Professor Myers was using his loud adult voice and instructing them to sit. He had one matter to take care of before he sat though, and he turned his attention to Myrtle who was RIGHT IN HIS FACE. EXCUSE YOU, MISS! "You're giving me a headache," he said. "And you have to earn respect, Myrtle." He didn't give respect for free, or to people (and ghosts) that could not control their emotions.
He went and took a seat now. He also made sure nobody took the seat next to him because that was Felicity's.
Overhearing Philippa's question, he could not help but smirk to himself. Heh. That's probably exactly what it means. HA. Haha.

Right. Of course he'd suddenly decide he wanted to keep the kiss. Jessa rolled her eyes, openly disappointed the role wasn't immediately given over to Ronan. He was right THERE and also clearly had no issue with the kiss. Of all the people in the world. Honestly, Professor, honestly.
Not trying to make a fuss, Jessa simply took a seat, sparing only a glance to the dramatic ghost and the equally dramatic Slytherin.
They could get on with rehearsals, she was paying attention and tuning out everything she needed to.
Was it possible that everything else would drag on so long that the'd run out of time before the final scene? No way they'd get everything done in this one rehearsal yeah? Still plenty of time to build up her resolve where Flynn's lips were concerned. Sure, she was no longer seething about it, but it didn't make her any happier about it. Maybe...once they got into and she was bouncing off lines with her other co-stars she could forget about it.

OKAY THEN, DIRECTOR! Good grief, and here he was thinking that patience was a requirement for being a director, what with all the stuff that could go wrong. Nice to know he was wrong about that.
Anyway, he quickly sat, since it seemed there wasn't going to be any more changes to the cast. Although it might be nice to get rid of Moping Moaning Myrtle. She was seriously testing the patience of his ears. And sadly, he hadn't brought any of his textbooks or other studying supplies with him. Would've been nice to get in a little review for his OWLS. Oh well.

Do a play, they said. It'll be fun, they said.
All. bloody. LIES.
Paul was stressed and a half over directing the play to the point of MAYBE NOT DOING IT NEXT TERM, but with everything coming together now...and maybe thinking of starting the play stuff EARLIER next term, he thought he might as well give it another chance. It was a trial-and-error sort of thing. Plus, the students were surprising him with their...exceeding ability to manage to do THIS and keep up with schoolwork. Unless they weren't keeping up with work and just pretending. Possibilities.
"ALL RIGHT-- ACT FOUR SCENE ONE PEOPLE--you're up!" The fountain that the props and scenery people had made was absolutely GORGEOUS. Shimmering...and...just perfect. Paul felt pride with just seeing it! "EVERYONE ELSE, BE PRACTICING YOUR LINES OFF STAGE!"
The four, Amata, the Altheda, Asha, and Sir Luckless needed to be up there STAT. Let's go, people! "And...ACTION!" so that they would start their lines and all. And the lights people should be doing their thing now...and the musical...yes?

Gaston took a deep breath as he entered the Room of Requirement, silently hoping this rehearsal wouldn't be a complete trainwreck. Granted, the orchestra had been practicing for months, but rehearsing with the actual actors was a different thing entirely! He gave Paul a polite nod in acknowledgement as he passed but didn't want to interrupt him by saying anything. He looked ridiculously stressed already! Maybe he should talk to him later and make sure he was okay?
He busied himself adjusting the music stands and setting out extra copies of sheet music until more people arrived and Paul called the actors to the stage. Brandishing his conductor baton, he turned to face his orchestra. "Okay, everyone, page 17 of your music, please," he said, thumbing through his own copy of sheet music to the start of the dramatic piece he'd written for the scene. A few last-minute instructions and an encouraging smile were given to the students. "Keep your eyes on my baton and be careful not to drown out the actors' lines, and you'll be great!"
And with that, he raised his baton just as Paul called action.

Yes, she knew her lines even better than before; it also helped having both Junia and Felicity in the play, even if they got cast minor roles. And Vivian was a major support too. But despite the fact that she knew her lines, Skylar was also ready for the play stuff to be over so she could fully concentrate on her owls. Not that she wasn't concentrating and managing her schoolwork, but there was just ... too much drama in the drama club.
Up on stage, she had to admit it was nice to practice with some SET stuff in place, rather than just reciting lines. And another nice thing? She actually WAS exhausted, so it wasn't mere acting, as she took the stage and found herself hyperventilating ... Kneeling on the ground, clutching her chest... Now where the other three, meant to help her?

She'd been running a little later than she could've even imagined, courtesy of some Defense Against the Dark Arts homework that she should have gotten done days ago. It couldn't be helped, Professor Hirsch would have been expecting his assignment handed in and might even have been forced to take points. Professor Myers was, as far as she knew, under no such obligation.
Besides, by the look of it, she didn't seem to be THAT late. Indeed, Jessa had walked in just as the man yelled for them to begin At Four, Scene One. Oh. And here she thought she'd missed an important cue.
Jessa scrambled to catch up with the others, slipping onto the stage along with them right on cue for the curtain to be raised. By now, she knew her lines better than the back of her hand and had probably said them a million times. She wasn't any happier about the end scene but with everything else going on, the Ravenclaw had very little time to think about it or get up in arms about it.
She step forward by a fraction the moment the curtain lifted and gave each person on stage a look as the script prescribed before she began. Only thing was, why was Skylar already on the floor? She wasn't meant to fall to the ground until after she'd said her line. Change of script? A last minute change she'd missed because she'd slipped in when she did? Just roll with it, Cambridge. "I guess it is time we decide who gets to bathe in the Fountain." The hesitation in her tone was evident, as she'd practised it to be because something told her after all the four would've gone through, this wasn't the sort of line you'd say with a tone of enthusiasm and energy.

Kalen flipped through his script and squinted at all the cues he had made. He was already in the Room of Requirement before the students arrived, fiddling with the spot lights and things like that. Not to mention he had a few affects he still needed to try out to make sure they looked all right.
As the curtain went up, Kalen turned the spot light on the actors, and made sure another light was behind them, making the sky red. He tilted his head as he adjusted the lights a bit before nodding. Yeah that looked all right.
Though perhaps the red was a hit harsh? He made a note in his script and subtly moved his wand over the red light, ahh.. better. More ethereal, less apocalypse. | |

Alright, she was here, the whole time. Promise. By now she pretty much had all of her lines memorized with the help of Slate mostly of course. He was great help. Any way they were doing Act four the last act of the play. Awesome, well maybe not as awesome for others. Mmm.
She headed up on stage, got in her place. Her brows furrowed as Skylar was already acting like she was dying. She shouldn’t sher be waiting on Jessa first line of the act. Speaking of where was Jessa and Flynn. Just as the curtain opened, Jessa appeared. So did that mean that they were starting without really being ready. OKay she could do this. Oh pretty scenery
She nodded after Jessa said her line. After a moment she turned to Skylar. Oh no what was wrong with Asha. ”ASHA!” She tried to sound truly concerned for the girl. Oh no she was dying, rushing over to skylar to check on Asha. The others were coming too, yes?

Things were going....smoothly. Look at that ACTING from Skylar, too! Paul beamed in pride. Excellent, excellent, even if she was a bit early---
Wait.
She was a bit EARLY. "Skylar---you've got to wait for Jessa to say her line." he was scurrying up to the stage, leaning over it as he gestured dramatically at her.
WAIT. AGAIN, WAIT.
"Skylar---are you okay?" and he was now SCRAMBLING onto the stage, heading right for her. From his seat it had looked like good acting but from this angle??? Oh no. It looked REAL. "Someone FETCH ME SOME WATER PLEASE." He was sure the room would provide them with water...somewhere.

Turns out, she wasn't the only one to notice Skylar had taken her cue too early. So then...not a last minute change to the script she needed to worry about. Okay, good.
Jessa watched the Professor move over to the set, not bothering to move over to her like Juniper had given he'd brought the scene to a halt for now. Good to know he was paying attention....except...he seemed to think Skylar was in REAL danger. Was she? Hadn't this been a part of the act as well? If not, she could've said something when the curtains lifted--or even before. The play wasn't worth pushing yourself to the point where you physically couldn't go on and there were understudies who had likely also memorized the lines and were ready to step in at the drop of a hat.
The Ravenclaw stepped a little closer, conjuring a cup and some water for that cup before extending it to the man.
She still wasn't entirely sold on Skylar being sick but on the off chance she was, the show needed to go one because she had a cauldron she timed this rehearsal around and didn't wanna have to spend extra time here trying to figure it out.
Of course, it would be terrible if the girl was sick but...they had contingencies for that.....

Myrtle did not want to be here, like, AT ALL! What was the point? She only had one line - ONE! - and she was still mad at mean old Professor Paul. Sticking her in a background role was bad enough, but snapping at poor miserable Moaning Myrtle?! UNFORGIVABLE!!!
*SNIFF, SNIFF* *WIBBLE, WIBBLE* She slunk to the back of the room, crying quietly. IS THAT TOO LOUD FOR YOU, PAUL?!?!? Just in case, she floated closer to the pretty blue-eyed professor (Gaston). HE would protect her! Because HE actually had a heart, unlike SOME people in the room!
*SOB, SOB* Then the actors appeared. "It's n-not fair! I-it should've been ME!"
O____O OF ALL THE DISRECPECTFUL, INSENSITIVE...! THIS SCENE IS GHOSTIST!!!
"THAT'S N-NOT WHAT DYING LOOKS LIKE!" And she would know. She'd experienced it for herself! "M-maybe if you'd e-even bothered to ask an ACTUAL GHOST about i-it, you could g-get it RIGHT!"

Vi had been sitting quietly, watching the other actors progress through the scene. However, they weren't meant to get too far before Skylar started coughing... or hyperventilating, wasn't it? What was going on? Olivia had no clue what was happening to her friend up onstage but something was wrong. There were dark circles under her eyes... It didn't look good either way. Biting her lip, she watched the scene unfold more.
Suddenly there was a big fuss and people were rushing... and Jessa had water. Thank Merlin. And then Myrtle spoke up proclaiming that's not what dying looked like. Olivia stayed quiet and where she was seated, deciding not to crowd around Skylar in case the Slytherin needed more space. She stood where she was with concern vivid in her widened blue eyes.

Zoryn was unconvinced. This whole thing was just WAY too boring and predictable. Y'know what this play could use? Some more chaos. And Zoryn would gladly take the liberty of-- "Oi, Myrtle, knock it off!! You're ruining the whole play," and with that off her chest, the Gryffindor went back to watching the play.
And again, BOOOOOOORING.
Zor had, for the most part, been VERY well behaved during all of their practices. She always sat quietly, never interrupted, and only went up for her SINGLE scene. But today was different.
She only did what any sensible person cast as "the ground" would do. The scene was clearly going downhill anyways and honestly, the audience was gonna love this new rendition she had up her sleeves. "EARTHQUAAAAAKE!!!" (Talk about an earth shattering plottwist, amiright????) The Gryffindor ran circles around the other actors in the scene and shook her entire body, waving her arms around as she did so.
Best. Actress. Ever.

Honestly? Honestly, he'd thought that Skylar's collapse was just a part of the play and that she'd simply missed her queue. But....now he wasn't so sure. The whole castle had been rocked by all the stuff going on, plus the fact that she was a fifth year and had OWLS to worry about on top of everything else? Well, he knew he wasn't handling it all that well (see: the dark circles under his own eyes and his now ever present cup of coffee). Could it be that stress had gotten to her?
And there went Moping Moaning Myrtle. Someone please explain why, exactly, she was a part of this play again? Then Zoryn happened.
Was it safe to say that practice was officially over now?

Gaston was pleased with the progress his orchestra had made! They'd started their piece in perfect time with no wrong notes played so far. He directed them into a dramatic crescendo to underscore Asha's collapse. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Miss Diggory and couldn't help but beam at her. What an amazing actress! And Miss Primeaux was doing a wonderful job too! Wait... That was just acting, right?
Then Paul shouted, and he quickly stopped the music. He traded his conductor baton for his wand and was about to conjure a cup and water, but Miss Cambridge beat him to it. He shot her a very appreciative look, but before he could say anything to her, Myrtle was crying about the scene being wrong. Oh good Godric Gryffindor, what else could possibly go wrong?
His bright blue eyes scanned the room, taking in the crowd around Miss Diggory, the wailing ghost, and some of the students' (Olivia, Zoryn, and Ronan) reaction to the chaos. "Don't worry, I'll handle her," he said as much to Paul as to the kids.
"Myrtle?" He cautiously approached the ghost. "You're right; we should've asked you. The reason we didn't is... we thought it might be too traumatic for you, but if you want to tell me what you think that scene should look like, I'm all ears."

Derf had been sitting off to the side working on some homework since he didn't have anything to do until act two - although he sorta was wishing he could be helping with the music bits while not narrating since he WAS getting better at playing the guitar now...but...oh well.
The third year had actually been engrossed in a bit of Mermish translation when...chaos happened. He wasn't sure what was going on with Skylar...but that seemed to sorta have things being handled...and then Myrtle happened and Professor Marchand was handling that...ish...maybe...Derf was beginning to think professors were underestimating the ghosts and poltergeists dwelling within the castle.
Prime example? Peeves in Muggle Studies. The Hufflepuff was still UPSET over all that.
But then Zoryn was declaring there was an earthquake and the Hufflepuff did NOT need to be told twice. Tossing his textbook up in air, Derf bolted towards the nearest sturdy looking table he could find and balled up. FOR SAFETY.
Also...were they NOT going to talk about how all their sets and such had been DESTROYED?!
