| | Armour Gallery Adjacent to the Trophy Room is a long corridor where numerous polished suits of armour are on exhibit. This collection of armour has been through a lot over the centuries that the school has been in existence, granted they don't look like it for not a single scratch can be found. If you know your history well enough, you'll be able to easily imagine the circumstances that these suits endured. The weapons they are holding say enough.
Should you decide that you want to examine the armour closely, please do so with caution. Yes, being able to see your reflection in them can come in handy from time to time. Nevertheless, they are known to move because someone's cat has managed to climb inside or, even worse, Peeves has decided to play a practical prank on anyone who happens to walk by and will chase after them, swords and spiked balls on chains swinging. Other than that, the clanky metal should remain quite stationary until they are summoned for battle in a time when Hogwarts is in need of additional protection.

Lisa always was intrigued by shiny things. Sometimes she felt like she should joke that she was part Niffler with her desire to be as wealthy as possible... Shiny things often made you wealthy so she was all for collecting as many as possible.
She walked over to the nearest suit of armor and glanced at it, taking in its full glory. Wow. Magnificent. Reaching out, she gently touched it before quickly pulling her hand away unless it came to life. But... it didn’t. As she stared at the armor, she noticed her own reflection which caused her to raise her hand to her cheek.
She wished she had bright blue eyes like Dahlia or V.

She wished she had bright blue eyes like Dahlia or V. Shiny things be shiny. Shiny things were pretty and caught her attention fairly quickly too but it wasn't the gleam of the sunshine bouncing off the suits of armor through the corridor windows that had caught her eye today. Nope, what had gotten her attention was a streak of rather dark hair out the corner of her eye as she happened to walk by.
Grinning widely, Lia walked over to join Lisa in standing closer to the suits of armor. "They're amazing, aren't they?" How strong and fierce each one was. Yet they were all so perfectly shiny and detailed. Beautiful.

Yet they were all so perfectly shiny and detailed. Beautiful. She nodded. “ They are. I wonder what one would be like on….” she mused as she continued to stare at the particular suit of armor in front of her. She wondered…. She glanced around her and Lia’s surroundings (seemed like they were ALONE) before leaning closely to Lia and whispering. “ Want to play dress up, Name Twin?” as she wiggled her eyebrows at her and then looked from Lia to the Suits.
It’s be quite the look to show up to class in Suits of Armour. “ I wonder if we’d get bonus points in History of Magic if we showed up in these suits.”
It was certainly a different definition of suiting up.

It was certainly a different definition of suiting up. Dahlia tilted her head. "Onnnnnnn...?" Lisa had trailed off and that instantly had left the smallish fourth year Ravenclaw wondering what was one the slightly younger girls mind. Thankfully she only had to wait a few short seconds before the whispered answer came. Dress up. Lia always loved dress up. But with the suits of armor?! "Bonus points or a points taken away and detention for messing with school stuff that hasn't been touch in.. Merlin knows how long." Now she wasn't denying that it would be beyond epic to wear one of the suits. It would be the wickiest thing ever! However, did they want to take their chances?

She had trailed off and her imagination had taken the best of her as she was imagining her and Lia showing up to class in matching suits. How long had they been here for? And who did they belong too? She had so many questions now!
Lisa nodded as Lia presented the potential outcomes of bonus points, removal of points, and detention. “ But it’s for the good of education, yeah?” she offered back with a mischievous smirk. “ To be fair, I don’t really want detention either….” Or losing points…She had a competition with Evan over being the top Nam student in Ravenclaw.

Uh-oh...
Lia was getting ready to wave her hands in front of Lisa's face. The younger Ravenclaw had that dazed look upon her that one gets when their daydreaming about something and it make you want to not disturb them but at the same time you also want their attention. Finally Lisa seemed to snap out of it on her own. "Well.. yeah, I guess one can agree that point but I doubt our professors or the Headmaster would see it the same way that we do." So very sad honestly. "As much fun as it would be.. is it worth it?" Now that was the real question here. That's always what she had asked herself. If she were to ever land herself in detention, would it have been for something well worth it.

Lisa nodded in agreement. Getting detention or losing points wasn’t fun but then again… maybe they could convince SOMEONE ELSE to do it and protect themselves. “ Maybe ask Professor Holden first and if he thinks it’s a good idea. We’re in the clear?” she offered as a potential solution. “ Or better yet… Halloween costume? Or have someone else do it?”

Or have someone else do it?” Dahlia shifted slightly sideways now, so that she could look at both Lisa and the suits of armor at the same time. "We can do that but I'm not so sure that he'll agree with our way of thinking." It would only be a solution if Professor Holden didn't think they were insane. Using them as a Halloween costume would be fun if they didn't get into trouble. But maybe the next idea was best? Maybe.. however they wouldn't actually get to wear the armor themselves. "We could try to have someone else do? At least that way we would know if it works." Just in case they ever did want to give it a go themselves.
