The Room of Requirement ((anyone))

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

((This is for anyone, but let me warn you ahead of time. Fiona is touchy and a pureblood. She believes they are the only true witches and wizards. It would be better if you were a pureblood if you want a decent conversation with her, but if you want to still post with her she'll try to be nice unless you openly admit you are a half-blood or a muggle born.))

Fiona walked into the Great Hall for dinner and stopped abruptly. The smell that met her nostrils nearly made her gag. She hadn't been that hungry to being with, but the smell of food just made her stomach turn. Besides the loud noise of the hall was already getting to her. The laughing and talking was loud and high pitched. She turned and began to walk down the corridor to the stairs. She would roam around the corridors for awhile. Starting up the stairs she began to release some tension as the noise from the Great Hall dispersed. She reached the a floor landing and began a slow walk throughout the corridors. She looked at the portraits that lined the walls and sighed to herself as they watched her pass. "You know they are serving in the Great Hall," an older woman from a portrait asked. "Yes, but they haven't fixed the company yet," Fiona retorted with a glare at the old woman. The woman glared and opened her mouth wide to retort. Fiona rolled her eyes as she kept walking. The old woman followed after her for a while shouting insults, but soon lost interest since Fiona didn't take offense by them.

"Mudbloods..." Fiona muttered to herself as she continued down the corridor. She ignored her surroundings as she made her way toward a secret room she had found her first year. It was called the 'room of requirement' and she had gone there several times to just have a place to relax and be by herself. It had also been the room where Rosaliz and her had come after they sneaked out of the hospital room after the attacks in Diagon Alley. Fiona came to the place where the door should be. She walked by the wall three times thinking about a place where she could just relax. Turning the last time she found the door knob and opened the door. Cozy chairs and books laid around the room. She entered and grabbed a cup of tea off a table in the room and took a sip. "It's a bit hot!" she exclaimed to the room. She shook her head in disappointment as she took out her wand and cooled the tea.

Fiona sat down in a comfy black leather chair. She put her feet up as she took a sip of the tea. She smiled to herself as she felt her body relax and the tension leave her. She didn't know how long she sat like this, but it was awhile before she moved. Setting her empty cup of tea down she stood up and grabbed a book from one of the shelves of books. 'The Dark Arts and How to Use Them' the book was titled. Fiona smiled. The room sure knew how to make her relax. She opened the book and began to read through it, turning the pages, and looking at the grotesque pictures that covered the pages.

[Caiest Hamilton S5]

Caiest strolled out of the great hall completely full and wanting nothing more than to sit down and relax. The only question was where could she go that would guarantee her a quiet place with little to no interruptions? The common room was out of the question. Sure it was relatively quiet with all the people in there studying but Caiest wasn't very fond of crowds or people in general she'd rather go somewhere where there weren't a lot of people. That also meant she couldn't go to the library or the student lounge. The only places left where the Room of Requirement and the outdoors. Seeing as how chilly it was outside Caiest decided the Room of Requirement would probably be her best option.

Caiest changed routes immediately and made her way to the Room of Requirement. She was extremely glad she'd found the room in her second year. It payed off being small and quiet the people she'd followed hadn't even noticed her the first time she'd gone. Luckily she didn't need directions anymore. With as much time as she'd spent in that room Caiest could find it with her eyes closed. Deciding to do just that Caiest moved over to a wall and began feeling her way to the room. She was bored and decided to see what it would be like if she where blind and had to find her way around that way. She quickly abandonded that idea after bumping into a rather nasty Slytherin 7th year. "I said I was sorry." Caiest called rubbing her arm where the boy had hit her.

Picking up her pace a bit Caiest finally found her destination. Much to her dismay a door was already there. That meant someone else was already in there. Caiest walked inside anyway. The room of Requirement was the only place she could really go to get at least a little alone time. If the person inside didn't like it then tough they could leave. Caiest walked in and saw a girl reading a book. Judging by the fact that it was a dark arts book Caiest guessed she was a Slytherin. "It's pretty bad times to be reading up on the dark arts. With all the Death Eater attacks and Voldemort's rise to power most people wouldn't be caught dead reading something like that. Might make people suspicious." Caiest said sitting down uninvited into a chair.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona sat looking at a picture of a particular nasty spell where the intestines of a person was pulled out of their mouth. The detail of the picture was amazing and Fiona smiled at the ugliness of the spell. Might come in handy if she ever thought about torturing someone to death. She shrugged to herself as she heard a slight noise behind her. She quickly turned and to her shock and anger someone had entered the room and immediately sat down in a chair across from Fiona. Fiona looked at the girl with rage as she said something about reading the Dark Arts book Fiona had in her hands. She looked at the girl with anger. She looked slightly familiar, definitely not a Slytherin. Fiona took a deep breath as she tried to calm her anger. If the girl saw that she had got to Fiona, then she would surely stay and Fiona did not want that.

"You dare to speak the Dark Lord's name? You must be braver than you look. That would be a pity, making people suspicious, but then again, what are they going to do to me? If they send me to Azkaban, then surely I will be set free by the Dark Lord. Besides, why do you care what I do and do not do? It is none of your business and obviously you have realized that. What I have failed to understand is why you have come to this room and actually stayed uninvited. Perhaps you can enlighten me to the reason why. On the other hand, maybe you're just lost and need someone to help you find your ickle dorm," Fiona said with venom as she finished her speech in a mock baby voice. She sat the book down on the coffee table in front of her. She left the book open so the girl would see what she had been reading. She hoped the girl would be frightened by the picture. She looked at the girl, forgetting about her anger, her curiosity took over. Fiona looked the girl up and down and figured she had to be the same age as Fiona. She didn't remember seeing her in any of her classes, but she was sure she was a 4th year. Fiona picked up her cup of tea and took a long drink finishing the cup.

Fiona stood from her chair and poured herself another cup of tea. She looked back at the girl, who was still sitting. "Tea?" Fiona asked politely. She didn't know this girl and she didn't know if she would like her or not, but she figured she would be somewhat polite until she found something that truly angered her. On the other hand there was always that phrase...'Keep your friends close, your enemies closer.' Fiona poured the girl a cup of tea anyway and walked back to her chair. She sat the cups of tea on the coffee table and looked back at the girl. "Fiona O'Reilly, Slytherin 4th year," Fiona said as she looked at the girl. She was introducing herself in a polite way and she hoped the girl would do the same. Fiona wasn't in the mood to argue with anyone unless they truly irritated her.
