'Balance, I should have known', Selina thought with a sigh. 'It does make sense. I'm going to have to be sharper than that if I'm make it in this House. Don't want to be thought of as the dullard too stupid to get past the door on their own.'
She looked around the Common Room, and saw how everything was done in either midnight blue or bronze, and there were many bookshelves, and windows which would provide a splendid view when there was light to see by. Hepzibah jumped out of Selina's bag, and immediately located a nice soft place to take a nap.
'Sleep is what I need, though, if I'm to be any good in my classes,' she thought, as she surveyed the Common Room, and noted the stairs where the statue of their House Founder stood. As it was she had no questions for their prefect, at least not at the present.

spaceGypsy took a seat in the Common Room, opting to sit at one of the small tables in the room rather than her usual couch or chairs. Anxious fingers tapped out an annoyed staccato on the wooden surface as she waited patiently for Xavier to show up. After the last game, they definitely needed to talk to Inigo. But, before they did that, they needed to figure out what they were going to do about him. She personally had an idea in mind, but honestly, given her temper and how out of control her emotional state was lately, she supposed it could be an overreaction. Which was why she was glad she had Xavier for a Vice Captain; he might be a grouch, but he was also significantly more level-headed than she was. She knew she could trust him to talk her down if her own idea of the best course of action was too much. And, she knew that, if he didn't talk her out of it, then it meant that not only was it the best course of action, it was probably a long time coming. They didn't tend to agree on much, but she knew that the both of them were fed up with the guy. His attitude, his lack of attention on the Pitch, his arrogance... She could write out a bulleted list of reasons she was sick of him. Actually, she sort of had, back in her room, in an attempt to sort through her thoughts and figure out if she were justified in being so angry, or if it was just her emotions getting the better of her because of her parent's deaths. All in all, what's she'd decided was that, honestly, even if she was overreacting, something clearly needed to be done. The question was, what?

spaceGypsy leaned back in her chair when Xavier sat across from her, crossing her arms over her chest with a frown. "Why do I get the feeling you already know what I'm going to say?" she asked, arching a brow at her Vice Captain. It was true; she and Xavier might not be friends by any stretch of the word, but they worked well together captaining the team, and if nothing else, she knew she could trust him to back her up when she needed it. Which, right now, she did. They only had one more game for the season, so there was some argument to be made that it might be more trouble than it was worth to bother with the issue, but damn if she was willing to just let it slide. She'd done so in the past, and Inigo's attitude had only gotten worse. He clearly couldn't be given any slack; he didn't learn. And she knew Xavier saw that as well as she did. "I want him off the team," she said after a long pause, pursing her lips. She didn't even bother to specify who she was talking about; it wasn't as though Xavier didn't know. "But my more rational side says there's not much point in it with only one game left in the season. Normally I'd be the first to admit it was just my pride, but honestly, in this case, I'm just sick of the guy. He's disrespectful, he's arrogant, and he's negligent. I might be a shite player most of the time, but at least I make an effort. He... it's like he thinks he's naturally good, so why bother trying?"
spacePink eyes turned faintly red, narrowing on her companion as she grit her teeth. "More than once, he's completely failed to even attempt at saving Lexine when one of the other team's beaters have taken a shot at her, because he was too busy focusing on trying to hit someone else. This is after we've both caught him slacking off in practice to stare at her, which I think is ridiculous. Guy can't take his eyes off her long enough to bloody practice, but when she actually needs him to have her back, he's nowhere to be found. It's bullshite, and I'm sick of it. I'm sick of him. Elijah did fantastic at tryouts; as far as I'm concerned, he's a better fit for the team. I certainly trust him more to have my back than I ever could Inigo, even if he is inexperienced." Gypsy stopped then, figuring that she could harp on the subject for hours if she wanted to (and she had, in the past... to Jer, of course, and it'd been less 'discussing' and more 'complaining', but still), but as it was, she'd stated her case.
spaceThe metamorphmagus drew her finger in a circle through the air, and told Xavier, "Now this is the part where you tell me to be reasonable. Or, maybe not. For all I know, you're as sick of him as I am." She wondered if she should feel bad that she was hoping Xavier would agree with her. Did it make her a bad person that she knew, completely and totally knew, that she was in all likelihood blowing this ever so slightly out of proportion, and she just didn't care? She was ******** tired. She was tired of the attitude, she was tired of the arrogance. If your ego was so big that even she thought you needed to tone it down, you had problems. Gypsy put up with a lot of things, but unearned arrogance was not one of them. Maybe if Inigo would do his job and make an actual effort, she'd have been more willing to cut the guy some slack. As it was, he was a decent player, but nothing spectacular, and certainly not good enough to warrant the attitude. They'd both had to call him out time and time again in practices, and yet it never seemed to sink in. He just flat-out refused to learn. And she was sick of it.

Eli nodded at the girl that answered and the door swung open. Stepping inside, he led the first years into the common room, waiting until everyone was inside before he gestured around. "And here we are. Ravenclaw common room. This is the general area where you can hang around and study, talk to friends in the house, whatever. Most of the time, you'll find it full of students studying. Especially come exam time. Now, there's several other prefects in the house, as well as the Head Boy this year. The Head boy is David Lea-wait, he changed his name. David Avery. Umm, unless you are really desperate, don't ask him anything. Lexine Vance is another prefect you can ask questions. As am I. As far as the dorms, they're through that door over there. Boys to the right, girls to the left. A bathroom is connected to each dorm. Umm, if you're a boy, don't try to go into the girl's dorms. They just turn into an endless staircase that leads nowhere, unless you really like puzzles and are stubborn enough to try and figure it out. It won't work, but you can try. Anyway, I guess that's it, and classes start in the morning. So, night everyone!" He was actually glad that the journey had gone smoothly. Now, he just wanted to pass out and go to sleep. Unfortunately, he was still going to wait for Jean to get up to the dorm so they could talk. He didn't know if it could help, but hey, he was willing to try.
════════════════════════Location: Ravenclaw Common Room Thinking: Now, hope Jean doesn't take too long getting up here... OOC: And journey's done! Whoo!

◥ ♒ ✖ ♒ Eugene "Jean" Windsor ♒ ✖ ♒ ◤
✖ Ravenclaw ✖ Fifth Year ✖ Half-Blood ✖ Scottish Accent ✖ I wish I had covered all my tracks completely cause I'm so afraid Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel or just the train? Lift your arms only heaven knows, where the danger grows And it's safe to say there's a bright light up ahead and help is on the way
-------- ✦ I forget the last time I felt brave, I just recall insecurity ✦ ------- Eugene blinked when Elijah mentioned about balding dogs and trip to the horror mills back in the Great Hall. The thought about dogs alone made him shudder than the horror mills, he had a dark history with dogs since childhood. Did his friend got bitten by a big dog? That would be horrible. Ugh, he solemnly swore that dogs were so violent when their privacies were being invaded. He wished that Eli got his butt saved by climbing on something fairly tall, like a fence or a car hood. Those choices were much cooperative than accidental magic and running. Saying that it was a long story, he supposed it was wise to not push him and let him not talk about it in the Ravenclaw Table. He really hoped that it would be an interesting and not dramatic year. He nodded as if saying, "Hopefully a year with no drama".
He was on his way to the tower's entrance, quite earlier than the upper class-men. Well, Eli did said to meet back in the common room. He didn't know what Eli wanted from him, maybe it was a private talk? But who knows, he only had to force himself to brace himself from whatever was coming to him. Unfortunately, it took five or ten minutes for him to answer the riddle; unlike others who would immediately answer it right. He had been occasionally locked up by the "cursed" door and it took long minutes for him to enter. Damn it Rowena Ravenclaw, she always gave the students a hard time by these stupid riddles.
He was now standing at the middle of the Common Room, he pretty much missed this place. Airy atmosphere, starry ceilings, and a nice landscape beyond the windows. He saw Elijah waiting for him, and said, "Hey Eli, what's up?" Okay that was a stupid conversation starter, but seriously he had nothing to say that did not screw up the meet up.
-------- ✖ Cause it came down like a tidal wave, and sorrow swept over me ▼ --------
Depression, please cut to the chase and cut a long story short Oh please be done. How much longer can this drama afford to run? Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties and breaks whatever doesn't bend But sadly then, all my heavy hopes just pull me back down again ✖ Status: Awkward ✖ With: Elijah ✖ Attire: Ravenclaw Unform + Hoodie under the Robes

Eli apparently didn't have to wait long, though he slightly wished that he could prolong the inevitable. However, if nothing else, maybe it would make trying not to talk to Cathy about everything a bit easier. "Okay, well, I had... I had a bad summer. It wasn't one of those 'I got grounded to the house and couldn't do anything' types either. I... got kidnapped. It was something stupid too. I accidentally used magic to get a dog off of me that decided I looked like some kind of appetizer, and some crazy bloke saw me. I guess he figured out I was a muggleborn, because he grabbed me and took me somewhere. An old barn, I just don't recall where. It was probably in the Prophet, though." Eli grimaced, flicking his now-brown hair out of his face before looking at Jean. "He must have had a lot of anger issues, because he decided to beat me into a pulp. Then it got weird. Cathy's mum showed up, and the guy decided to attack her. He... murdered her, and the only thing I could do was run. I can't tell Cathy, because well, it was her mum. I can't tell Dani either, because she's Cathy's best friend. It's also why I... well, changed my hair and eye colour. Guy was never caught, so he's still out there, and I know what he looks like. He might decided to come back after me."

Although the others would say it wasn't all his fault he felt it was. He hadn't protected their goals well and Slytherin now had a substantial lead along with their win and he felt like the suckiest vice captain ever. He sighed and resisted throwing off his gear right there in the common room but did at least take off his gloves and stick them in his pockets. The only thing keeping him from going to Echo and resigning as VC was the fact that both the older boy wouldn't let him and that somehow his sister would find out and kill him in his sleep and only bring him back for Quidditch games. Feeling a bit too tired to brave the stairs to the boy's dormitory Timothy flopped into an armchair and closed his eyes to rest and let the dancing flames in the fireplace ease his mind. ❞

Location: Ravenclaw Common Room After the Quidditch game Grace headed back to the common room leaving Selina to go talk to Lola. She figured she could catch up with her a bit later on since they had classes together. Entering the common room the second year headed for the girl’s dormitory only to stop when she noticed Timothy sitting in one of the armchairs with his eyes closed. ‘He must be bothered by the loss…’ she thought as she stood there awkwardly. ‘Should I go talk to him…?’ Grace thought remembering what her sister told her. ‘Don’t even think about talking to him.’ She heard her sister say. Shaking her head the young eagle decided to ignore the voices and walk over to him. Taking a seat in the armchair next to him, Grace waited for a second before finally speaking up. “Um… Hi Timothy,” she said to get his attention. “I’m sorry about the game.” Honestly she didn’t know what else to say. Status: Happy but feeling bad... With: Timothy Wearing: Cheering on the Team OOC: --- Lily the Rabbit Well you certainly know what you want. And I won't argue with such a mind as yours. Ravenclaw!

His assumption turned true when she apologized for the game causing him to snort a bit as he opened both his eyes to give the young girl his full attention. He wondered why now she decided to speak with him then felt a little bad that it had to be her to instigate it while he was the one who had known and was now dating her older sister. He was about to use his hands to sign but reconsidered because he wasn't sure if Mira had seen fit to teach her sisters BSL just so they all could communicate. If anything, the blonde made it a point for them to avoid her sisters like the plague whenever they were remotely alone. He was going to have to ask her about that one day soon. So he looked around the common room for some paper and a quill and luckily found some one a table a few feet away and pulled his wand from his inner robe and quickly summoned them over to him so he could write a response. "Hello Grace, and don't apologize for the game. If anyone should have to, it should probably be me. I'm the one who let a goal get through." Timothy wrote and handed to her.❞

Location: Ravenclaw Common Room Grace knew that she was breaking just about every rule her sister had set in place. She wasn’t supposed to bother Timothy and she swore that included even so much as looking in his direction. Of course it wasn’t quite that extensive but some days it felt like it. Pulling off the coat she’d been wearing Grace suddenly felt bad for not telling Timothy that he could sign. Though she was still learning it she knew enough to get by or so she believed. Sadly she could never test the theory because Mira would be furious to know her younger sister had taken the time to learn BSL. Reading Timothy’s response, Grace figured he’d feel badly about falling to block the goal. Shaking her head the young girl gave him a small smile. “You shouldn’t have to apologize. You can’t catch them all, right? Besides it’s only a game or so that’s what Leo tells me.” She told him while also attempting to do her best at signing. “Please tell me I don’t horribly suck at BSL? I’ve been working on it all summer.” she asked hoping she was at least doing decently well for a beginner. Status: Happy but feeling bad... With: Timothy Wearing: Cheering on the Team OOC: --- Lily the Rabbit Well you certainly know what you want. And I won't argue with such a mind as yours. Ravenclaw!

He didn't look to terrible did he? His eyes widened in shock however when he saw her signing, if rather slowly, in BSL telling him it wasn't his fault they lost and that it was just a game. When she admitted to have working on the language all summer he gave her an encouraging grin and waved his hand to offer her a seat in the armchair beside his own feeling a bit guilty he hadn't offered before. "No, your signing is very good, just slightly stuttered. I'm sure if you're half as studious as Mira that you practically know BSL like the back of you hand, you've just have to have more confidence and let your signs flow. And thank you for your kind words, I feel a bit better now." the older boy signed back to her. ❞

Location: Ravenclaw Common Room Grace happily took a seat in the armchair next to him with a smile. She was happy to hear she didn't completely fail and this whole BSL thing. After all she needed to get Leonette up to snuff in time for the wedding. Of course she could always translate. Granted what fun would that be for her sister. Though, Mira might not be overly pleased by the whole thing. Maybe with some luck Timothy could break her of that one. "Thank you and here I was afraid I was completely horrible. Oh I am some might say I'm even more so." Grace signed with a bit more confidence. "I'm not surprised if Mira hasn't mentioned much about me. She and I don't really get along. In fact I think she rather forget I even exist sometimes." she added before pushing the matter aside. "But regardless, I'm glad I could help a little. I wouldn't want you feeling depressed and down all by yourself. After all what kind of a housemate would I be if I let that happen?" Grace said giving Timothy a small smile. She didn't want to concern him with the problems that went on between her and Mira. She didn't trouble David about Leonette and she was sure Mira never did either, so it was only fair. Status: Happy... With: Timothy Wearing: Cheering on the Team OOC: Sorry for the huge delay Lily the Rabbit Well you certainly know what you want. And I won't argue with such a mind as yours.
