| | |  Fourth-Floor Corridor
 The fourth floor is the quietest floor in all of Hogwarts. Those who have been here long enough and know the layout know this as an obvious fact because the primary features of this floor are the Library and Study Hall. To soften your steps as you make your way around, a carpet drapes the entire floor of the corridor. Remember to keep your voice at a whisper because there's important studying going on in this part of the castle!
You will find large green vases placed in the corners of the corridor as well as a number of portraits. There really isn't anything exciting about the vases, though Peeves is known to pick them up and throw them at unsuspecting passersby -- it is strongly advised that you always stay alert. As for the portraits, you will likely notice right away that most of them are of peaceful landscapes. Nevertheless, you will eventually come across Brutus Scrimgeour (author of The Beaters' Bible), Hengist of Woodcraft (founder of Hogsmeade), and Edward Rabnott (a wizard with three different personalities).

Katrina wasn't quite sure what she'd been thinking about when she confiscated the parchement during the first run of the school year. She knew she didn't have too much longer before she would be expected to turn it into Scrimgeour, but somehow seeing the parchment sparked ideas. Ideas sprung from a historical group of Gryffindors from over a century ago.
But what to make the parchment say? It needed to be believable but she couldn't have Scrimgeour know she (and whichever student originated the note) know they were onto him. Pacing down one of the quieter corridors at Hogwarts was a two-fold. Looking for rule-breakers but also to clear her thinking. Her office was a rather distracting place sometimes, even if it was more private. Fortunately, she was skilled and so perhaps having the parchment all coded up would suffice?

Quiet time was where Hanna did most, if not all, of her thinking and processing. And she needed a lot of it. First, she had been excited to come back because it meant leaving the house where she had started feeling like a guest rather than an occupant. But then Hogwarts had been taken over by two of the most unpleasant men she had ever met. Ever! And now she just felt like Hogwarts, her home, was turning hostile. She didn't even want to be there.
So off she went to the Library to find a quiet corner where she could be alone, and let all of her thoughts catch up and process. But as she was walking, not really paying attention, for it seemed her thoughts had already started spiralling, she bumped into someone. "Oh, Sorry," she apologised, looking right up at Professor Sabra.

Lucas was headed to study hall for some Divination prep-work. He would NOT be ignorant in the next lesson; he was tired of giving dumb answers because he was NOT a dumb person. So he had a book tucked under his arm. Gone were the days where he would levitate a tasty ole' cup of buldakbokkeummyun or just regular cup o' spicy noodles...he didn't want to get in trouble for eating outside of the Great Hall. But he was soooooOOooo hungry. He moved his backpack around to his front and unzipped it, opening a bag of crisps within. He snuck ONE SINGLE CHIP in his mouth as he witnessed the...slightly funny debacle in front of him. Even calling it a debacle was a little dramatic.
"You all good?" he asked them both as he casually slid by. "Hello Professor Sabra.." was that her name? "You're doing okay today?" He smiled. Ancient Runes was fun. Even though she was new she didn't seem as HORRIBLE as their headmaster or the Divination guy.

Even though she was new she didn't seem as HORRIBLE as their headmaster or the Divination guy. While staring down the corridor, Katrina had completely zoned out. So much that the next thing she knew she was on her bum and there was a young Ravenclaw there - OH WHAT WAS HER NAME?!? Einstein? Galilei? OH motion ... Newton... right... duh. Patting her pocket to make sure the parchment hadn't slipped from it, she smiled at the girl. "Your great-great-grandfather may have discovered the laws of motion, but that doesn't mean you have to test them, Miss Newton." Was she related to the late muggle mathematician, who even really knew?
...
Oh. Did he see that? Hear that? Katrina stood up abruptly, figuring it more proper for a professor to be standing than on the floor. "Ah yes, Mr Choi, everything is just dandy. We were just discussing how things stay at rest unless compelled to change by an external force. Isn't that right, Miss Newton?" Look, Scrimgeour should be proud, taking the opportunity to educate these young people on important matters such as force.
WAIT. WHAT WAS HE EATING? "Is that a sugary confection you just consumed?? Eating sugar at random intervals as such impairs your ability to perform ...Physically and mentally" Looking up and down at his robes. "But then again, ah well, carry on." Negative performances on his part could boost Gryffindors chances for the cup, after all. So while she probably should have docked points or something for the misdemeanor, she had the distinct feeling it wouldn't be necessary.

Hanna's mouth switched from closed to open, and closed again. "What?" she said. She didn't even know her great-great-grandfather. She didn't even know her Great-grandfather. Her Grandfather, yes. That was Grandpa Walter. "I'm sorry Professor, I w-wasn't testing anything." She almost wanted to cry. All she wanted was to get to the Library to start unpacking her thoughts, and she'd gone and knocked the Professor back. It was a complete accident!
But once a Sixth year joined them, Professor Sabra started talking about some other stuff. "A-are you talking about Physics, Professor? I know that what comes up must come down." At least in the muggle world. But that didn't mean that once Professor Sabra got UP again, she had to go back DOWN. Hanna wasn't going to push her over again.

Lucas couldn't help but smirk. "Oh, so you both decided to give a live....sort of show of it?" he asked cheekily. "Newton's first law." He tapped his temple smartly. "Which is interesting because your surname is Newton." He noted. "Are you related to THE famous Newton?" Because if she knew that and it was TRUE THAT WAS SO COOL!
But then....HE FROZE. "What? No?" he furrowed his brows and shook his head, wiggling his backpack a bit. She couldn't have seen, right? Hmph. NO SNACKS HERE. "I know. But it's nice to have a snack every so often. You can't have no fun all the time, right?" he asked gently. He smiled and nodded at the girl and threw up the pen in is hand before catching it when it came back down. "Newton's THIRD law, actually." He hadn't been near enough to hear Professor Sabra's little joke toward the younger girl, but know that he would have found it profoundly funny.

Juniper was going down the library. She was so tired of basically living in her common room when not in classes. Cabin fever was really sitting in. Minding her own business, as she headed up to the library.
She might have walked into the last bit of whatever this was. Like literally walked into this scene. Science! Physics! Yes, she loved all of the above. Of course she was going to join in. ”Hi.” She nodded to Hanna and Lucas as she just walked up.
”Every action has an equal and opposite reaction? Were you guys testing that one out?’ omg Juni was such a nerd but she loved it. The Professor got a smile from her. She kind of felt like Professor Sabra a spirit animal for her in a sense. Two peas in a pod. All that jazz
Clearly like she had missed the first part of what actually happened and just caught the professor as she was getting up off of the floor. Otherwise it would have been totally weird for a professor to be just laying on floor. Unless something bad had happened to her. That wouldn’t be good. She really enjoyed the new Runes professor of course she missed Hawthorne's lessons.
