I Must Have Been Crazy PV Solomon Lear Open

Simon still had patrols to do for the night but another priority came first. He had been one of the last to leave the Great Hall at supper that evening, preoccupied with a certain blue eyed beautiful blonde and time got away from him. The school elves were cleaning up for the evening when one found a rather intricate and very expensive looking engraved handheld telescope. He wasn't sure who it belonged to, and the school elf had explained to him that it was found on the floor near the entrance to the Great Hall so he didn't even know which house the student may have belonged. Best to take it and place it up in the Astronomy Tower with a note to the professor to have them ask before classes. It certainly was a piece that one would miss.

He placed it where the professor had some of their things ready for the next day's classes and closed the door behind him, taking a moment to find the Astronomy Tower key amongst the numerous ones on his keyring. Students weren't supposed to be in the Astronomy Tower after hours and if the professor had it locked, it was best to lock it again. Leave things the way you found them as they say.

Simon turned and saw a girl near the Headmaster's Office. It almost appeared as though perhaps she was reaching for the handle and trying to open the door. Would Headmaster Lear really be meeting with a student so close to curfew? "Excuse me. Can I be of any assistance?" he asked. Perhaps she was lost and looking for the Owlery instead - although it was rather late in the school year not to know where the Owlery was. Still, it wasn't uncommon to confuse the two towers.

Lily swore under her breath when she noticed it was locked. She was so screwed. Didn't even know Alohomora yet. She was about to get ready to pick the lock when she heard a voice behind her asking if she needed any assistance and she spun around hiding the Bobby pin in her pocket. The first thing she noticed was the looks. Of course of the day that she wanted to make trouble, her friend Simon Kincaid finds her. But nonetheless she gave him a big smile. "Simon! Hi! Not really, Mr. Lear said he wanted to talk to me and to wait in his office if he wasn't there." Lily had no idea where the lie came from so easily. Now she was forced to stick to it. She gave him a smile and gestured to the door. "Unfortunately it's locked and I can't follow his directions." She sighed and shrugged nonchalantly as if 'Oh well'. Lily looked around mostly to check to make sure the actual headmaster wasn't coming. "I'll Just wait out here though. If the office is locked." She shrugged again. "Anyway what are you doing out here?" Lily asked with a smile trying to seem like she wasn't doing anything but listening to the headmaster. At least she was good at acting.

Interacting with @Simon Kincaid and eventually @Solomon Lear and @Lorcan McCoire

With the nightfall upon Hogwarts and most of the students in their common rooms, Lorcan was so bored that he decided to go for a long walk. Was he allowed? The real question was, did he care? Nope! He hopped off the edge of his bed in the Slytherin dorms, and quickly made their way down the spiral staircase to finally make it towards the exit. The dungeons were a place that was rather easy to get lost in, but thanks to Colin, Lorcan was able to remember the way back to the corridors by heart. It was a short walk and one that had the young boy running across the stone floor with their bare feet smacking against the ground with each step. He wasn’t scared or anything, but rather excited to be out and about on their own.

Once he made it through the dungeons and into the corridor, that was when Lorcan stopped and began to think for a moment. He was unsure where to go or what to do. In this case, he decided to just walk until he was bored. There were only a couple students walking about, but it seemed as though each of them were in a hurry to get back to their dorms to settle in for the night. Not Lorcan! He was too excited and wide awake for any of that. But before the young child knew it, he was walking up what seemed like a neverender staircase that would eventually lead him to Lily and some stranger he had never seen before. "Sissy!" He called out, before running up the stairs to stand next to Lily. "I really hope yer not runnin’ around snoggin’ with boys again! Colin would be mad." He stated, then put his attention on the stranger for a moment.

Lily smiled at Simon and turned around when she heard a very familiar voice. She paled a little as her little brother, Lorcan McCoire came skidding to a halt next to her saying something about snogging boys. Great just great. He ruined it for her. Lily sighed and turned to Lorcan. "Lorcan, what are you doing out? It's almost curfew." she gave an apologetic smile to Simon as she laid a hand on Lorcan's arm. "Sorry Lorcan is just like Colin in some ways." Turning back to Lorcan, she gave him a soft look of 'could you not have waited?'
"Go back Lorc" Lily said with a smile and waved giving him a soft good-night. "I'm sorry. Brothers." Lily said with a laugh as he walked away presumably to the dungeons. He almost ruined it for her and to be honest she would have to give him a talking too later. Brothers were so annoying, it was irritating. "I don't know when Lear is coming though. He must have gotten held back" Lily said giving him a quick but wry smile. She did not know how this was going to work or if it even would. It would definitely be a miracle.
