"We're going to have to be careful what we use as a tagline." I reasoned, "If we go in heads first requesting fulltime access to the restricted area will be shut down before either of us could say Rowena Ravenclaw! Not to mention if this is declined other people will have a harder time trying to pass this petition. We should petition for a system to access the restricted section. Like a grade or even point system." We were going to have to be careful what we write for this to work.
"Maybe we can request another student to help us review it," I suggested biting my lip in concentration. However that fall under the line of who? Who can we get to help us edit this? Another Ravenclaw perhaps? Maybe but it depends if one is available. "We should probably start heading to our dorms. Its getting kind of late." I noted rising from my chair, my legs now half asleep. It was getting kind of late and the Library would be closing soon. "How about this. I can write a rough draft of our petition tonight. Then after classes tomorrow we can meet up somewhere. Maybe in that empty classroom on the fifth floor and we can edit it and make any needed changes before we ask someone to peer review it."
I personally was quite proud of our idea. I mean it's not every day that two eleven-year-olds create a petition for student access to a restricted section to a magical Library. I just hope we can get other people onboard with this plan.

Elsie pointed out they should be careful about the tagline and make a grade or point system for it. Mae definitely agreed with that idea. She knew that if people were going to sign the petition they were going to need to make it seem more appealing to the masses. She then went to say that they should have a peer review it before they sent it off for people to petition, she then said that they should meet at the empty classroom on the 5th floor tomorrow to edit the draft. That sounded good to Mae and it would be a tad bit better if they had decided to give it to a peer, 3rd party outside opinions were always good.
"Yeah definitely, let's plan it tomorrow and then we should see who we can get to review it for us, send me an owl when your ready to go over there,"
Mae said with confidence after all, they were just two 11 year olds trying to open up the restricted section after decades of it being tucked away. Before the two girls parted ways Mae added this,
"It was very nice meeting with you, I think we are becoming really good friends,".
