Hufflepuff Common Room

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric threw himself on a squishy armchair and roared a well sized yawn during his stretch. Another day! Another patrol. The Puff commons were full of contented whispers and older years helping the younger ones practice their spellwork and charms during the little free time they came by. They really were a family.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric was awoken by a second year boy, Nigel, for help on his potions assignment. He sat up properly and shook the sleep off to help him, Okay, where are you having trouble..?"

[Arya Rith]

"Ugh this is ridiculous," Arya mumbled as she took the quill out of her mouth and threw it to the ground, ink splattering over the rug. Arya clenched her fists and hung her head low. Her bangs fell over her face and she stood up. Why do we keep meeting like this? I can't study with this on my mind, Arya thought and caught her balance. Arya threw on flats before exiting the common room, walking through the tunnels to one by the lake. She needed fresh air.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric lugged his bag from the common room to the dorms to work in peace. Avery was covering mentor time with the younger Puffs and he had decided to stay in the common room with them all instead of taking them out. As much as he loved the little tykes, he needed quiet to work on his Transfiguration assignment and the quiet was necessary for the practical part of it.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric was stopped by a group of third year girls who were panicking over their unfinished Transfiguration work. He hushed them all and led them to a table, "Okay! Okay, okay, Vicky, Paula, Annie, Merlin, all of you, calm down! There's time, where do you guys wanna start?" Immediately he was bombarded by frantic questions to which he tried to decipher and answer.

[Professor McGonagall]

Professor McGonagall knocked outside of the still life three times, loudly and sharply, and waited for an awake student to open the portrait hole while she announced herself, "Good morning! I have a transfer student here in need of entrance."

[Cedric Diggory]

The group Cedric was with finished writing the last of their answers down quickly when they heard the Professor. Her familiar voice sent chills down their spines as they got their junk together while clutching their parchments and thankfully embraced Cedric one by one then turn to run up the stairs panicked to be caught. Cedric rubbed the back of his head confused and amazed at how quickly they ran but went to open the portrait for Professor McGonagall, "Good morning Professor. A transfer?"

[Professor McGonagall]

Minerva shooed Jun in and nodded, "Ah, yes Mr. Diggory, a transfer. Could you please help him settle and have him meet me at the entrance hall when he is finished? Do you understand that young man?" She turned to Jun and motioned his luggage in with a clean sweep of her wand to set it down on the common room floor.

[Sakurai Jun]

Jun yawned as he stopped behind the professor. Part of him was now dying for a sofa to stretched out on even. He stretched his back and sighed. When he saw another classmate he nodded respectfully. Hachi was not amused and had already nodded off herself.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric nodded and started hefting bags up in his arms easily, "New kid, eh?"

[Professor McGonagall]

Minerva thanked Cedric briskly and turned to leave. She carefully shut the portrait behind her and went back up the stairs to speak with the other student she left.

[Sakurai Jun]

"Eh?" Jun gave the lost and confused look, merged now with a sleepy sort of look. He looked around the common room and sighed in a comforted sort of manner. "I am sleep?" He mumbled, clearly exhausted from his trip. It was less the time and more the having gotten ready and travelling so far.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric grinned and contorted his brows in a way that expressed he was amused yet confused. "Where you from, mate?" He hefted the last bag into his arms and charmed the trunk to follow him up the stairs, "Come on, I'll show you your bed."

[Sakurai Jun]

"Japan." He knew that question at least. He followed the helpful classmate, Hachi still curled up in his arms. He knew she would be happy to wake up in a comfortable bed. "Thank you." He added, assuming he was being shown where to go and thus following close behind.

[Cedric Diggory]

Cedric returned and was about to go out to finally get himself from food when he was stopped by another group of frantic students. He turned around and sighed, "Alright, alright. Come on." He was dragged to another table to work.
