[Loki is sitting by the fire in the Slytherin common room, just staring at the flames. He is holding a book, but is not reading it and is noticeably not as bouncy as he was earlier.]

[mo_cara]

[Gamzee spots Shinra as soon as the other boy enters the Slytherin common room, and grins widely. He makes a beeline for the other boy, grabbing his hand and pulling him up to the fourth year boy's room.] I made you a space and shit, bro! This is gonna be motherfuckin' sweet!

[preanimator]

[Herbert pulls his trunk into the Slytherin dorms, face set in tight lines. He doesn't like this, being forced into someone else's territory, even if it's only temporary. He's used to Ravenclaw tower, knows his way around, knows the people there. God, he hates social situations.

And now he's just going to stand here, not sure of where to go.]

[jeet]

[Baljeet is standing against one wall of the Slytherin common room, looking more than a bit nervous. Even with the conversation he just had with Arthur over the journals, he thinks of Slytherin as a magnet for bullies.]

[formyownhand]

Och, there's too many people...

[Merida has escaped Maxim, at least, but she's still finding the over-crowded Hufflepuff common room frustrating. She likes being around people, but her elbow room is important to her.]

[accioleggings]

[So he gets to spend the week helping his wife manage two houses in one dorm. This shouldn't be too different from home, just with fewer cats.

Sal can be found bustling around the Hufflepuff dorm, making sure students are getting along and no first years are getting their fingers put into warm water.]

[sugaredpotions]

[Meanwhile, Bonnibel doesn't look the least bit bothered. She knows enough Slytherins to know they aren't all bad. She's come down from her sugar high enough to be less of a blur and more of a slightly bouncy girl, though she's eyeing a spot on one of the couches in the Slytherin common room like it's a good spot to take a nap.]

[rule_britannia]

[He's never been the best in social situations, so Arthur is more or less trying to remove himself from this one, or at least make himself as unnoticeable as possible. There's a thick book open on his lap - one he'd been reading for most of the summer - and for the looks of it, he's almost done.

For the moment, he's managing to ignore everyone around him. Having twice as many people as usual in the Slytherin dungeon is making that rather difficult, however]

[taleweaving]

[Aranea is drinking in the details of the Slytherin common rooms, knowing that this will be one of the few chances she ever gets to see another house's living spaces. A rare opportunity, and one to be treasured, and oh she hopes no one minds her taking notes of things she finds herself curious over, wanting to have something when she later re-checks Hogwarts; A History. But over all she doesn't seem too bothered, and she is keeping an eye on both Raven and Snake students.]

[marshall_lee]

[Marshall is looking around the common room, guitar case in one hand, trunk in the other contemplating his situation. It's bad enough that he has to get used to a new space himself but now he has to possibly share? He knew that he wasn't quite himself in the mornings and that could be problematic. He sighs and mutters to himself.]

"...great. Now what?"

[fuckilovebooks]

[So even though she'll be spending the week in an unfamiliar dorm, crowded with students from two houses, Twilight isn't letting it put her off from what she does best, which is blocking out everything and retreating into a good book. She's found a comfy and more-or-less quiet space in the common room and curled up in it to start reading.]

[ficklefuckwit]

[Jake has spent the better part of his time here in Hogwarts being equal parts enchanted by the amount of people and terrified by them. For a kid who hasn't spent hardly any time around people his age, this is certainly an experience.]

[Which is exactly why he's folded up on the ledge of a window in the overcrowded Hufflepuff dorms just watching everyone, huge oversized cat draped and dozing in his arms and lap.]

Wowza.

[seeringlight]

[Rose had taken refuge in an area of the Slytherin Common Room that wasn't too busy. She already had a book open and was doing some reading before she headed to sleep.

She kept her eyes wary of people though. While she enjoyed playing around herself once in awhile, she didn't want to see anything too crazy right at the beginning of term. Especially since some Houses really did get involved in their mini House wars!

Some may notice objects floating once in awhile as Rose practices her spellcasting without trying to cause too much problems around her.]

[nomorals]

[Too many people. There were too many people in here at any given time. Marceline had felt claustrophobic at the station and on the train, but at least she had been able to separate herself from everyone. Here it was a nightmare. Her ears picked up everything with her new state. From the gossip happening over in the corner to the heartbeats thrumming in her head.

She's trying to keep the panicked look from her face, but she's not doing too well. She can't move from her spot which makes it even worse, frozen in place.]

[nunganunga_k_o]

[For all the whinging people were doing about it being crowded, you would think there would at least be some festivities occurring. With the unintentional back to school slumber party, you'd think someone would be kicking back and enjoying the extra company, but noooooooo, too much to ask for from a bunch of swots. Nearly the ENTIRE common room was packed to the gills with people reading or keeping their mincers peeled for spare corners to position themselves into.

Qu'est-ce que c'est le point? As wet as the Hufflepuff were, at least them and the Gryffindors would be having a laugh right about now. And so Georgia surveyed the common room near the entrance to the dorms, before cautiously calling out:] Does anyone want to play a game or something? Or are we treating the dorms like a library now?

[givesyouaboner]

<sub>[Okay. This is a lot of people. There were a lot of people in the Great Hall, but that room was big. This is smaller and similar to the house party they had earlier in the summer, except Dirk was more aware of places he could go to to get away from the crowd.

For the moment, he's tucked away in the corner of the Hufflepuff common room with a book open and an orange kitten curled beside him.]</sub>

[actuallyspeakslatin]

[Natasha is busy looking at everything in the Slytherin common room. If it's not bolted down, she's picked it up and looked at it.]

[cantstarvethisfire]

[Katniss just shoved a cat off a chair she usually sits at, it wasn't that hard but it hissed as her and she hissed back. It's not a Slytherin cat, they know to stay clear of her.]

[preanimator]

[Later, in the 6th year boy's dorm, Herbert will relax a bit, finally away from the crowds that a mishmash of two Houses can engender.] God, it's awful down there.

[wwhatevver]

[If there's something Eridan isn't going to get used to, it's definitely the amount of people in the house. While he's been trying to avoid being in the commons and all that, he just... can't always stay out of it.

But he's going to be a butt and shove his way through crowds and such and asserting his fourth year status, which is probably not the best idea in retrospect.]

[selfhatred]

[Karkat has been hold up in the Hufflepuff common room after classes in the hopes of avoiding Equius. Last he heard at least, the Slytherin was hunting him down. He's currently curled up on a comfortable chair in the corner, a plate of baked goodies from the kitchens balanced on one arm of the chair as he flips the page of a worn book.]

[syned_a_brik]

[Oggie looks around the Hufflepuff common room, hoping to find someone not too busy he can chat with.

Of course, his definition of "not too busy" is pretty much synonymous with "not in the middle of an intense debate", so that leaves pretty much any one up for grabs.]

[ladyliberty]

[After classes Thursday, Amelia makes her way back down to the Hufflepuff common room, looking for Maxim.]

Maxim, can I speak with you? Privately?

[notthebee2]

[ This was the worst time possible for this conjoined dorms thing. Sollux simply laid in his bed, throwing a small plastic rubber ball up and down slowly, trying not to attract much attention. He was torn between feeling awful for that journal entry and thinking everyone was just being touchy because of an expression. Even so, he avoided contact with pretty much anyone because it probably wouldn't be long until someone filled up with self righteous fury would want to punch him in the face. ]
