Private: @Mac Murphy @Telle Dune @Theodore Matthews @Galton Lansdale
Maggie blew a strand of hair out of her face as she continued to scrub the grimy tile floor of the Abandoned Toilets. She shuddered as a mysterious substance found its way onto the rag she’d been scrubbing the floors with for around half an hour now. If she was being honest, however, she probably deserved this. She had pranked one of her classmates by enchanting his shampoo bottle to go on a mad rampage across the Ravenclaw Common Room, dousing the majestic space with strawberry-scented goo. Maggie snickered to herself as she remembered the looks on their faces. Having to scrub the floors of the Abandoned Toilets was worth it, at least in her opinion. Maggie was planning more pranks, some of them being adaptations of Muggle pranks, some of them using her newfound witch abilities to her advantage, as she scrubbed the grime and goo off of the floors. She had an idea, the only problem was, she needed a target. She wouldn’t prank just anyone, no, she needed a pranking enemy. Speaking of, she also needed some partners in crime.
She whipped her head around when the door to the Abandoned Toilets opened with a loud creeeeakkk...

Coming Together
It was so easy to get lost in a place like Hogwarts. The Scottish castle had so many winding twists and turns. Poor Mac had been dragged along by his friend Theodore, who wanted to go an 'adventure'. Exploring was all well and good within reason, but he wasn't even sure what floor they were on anymore. They found themselves in a long, dark hallway that just seemed to go on for ages. It was safe to say that they were thoroughly lost at this point.
"Theo, what if we can't find our way back?" he asked, a hint of worry tinging his voice as they walked through the abandoned hall, a frown on his face as he looked around. "We'll end up breaking curfew, then they'll send us to detention..." Other than the two of them, the place was just about deserted. One of the doors had a sign hanging above it, but it was so old and scuffed that Mac had a hard time making out what it said. With a shrug, he put his hand on its handle and pushed it open. He cringed as the hinges let out a loud crrreak, like nails on a chalkboard.
It didn't lead back to any part of the castle that he recognized, of course- Mac just wasn't that lucky. This was a bathroom. Or... it probably was at some point. It was just about in ruins now, filthy and decrepit. He was just about to move on when he noticed a girl on her knees, hard at work as she scrubbed at the bathroom floor. He recognized her; Maggie Parker, the Gryffindor he'd bumped into at the library a few days prior. "Maggie?" The confusion was evident in his voice. "Um... What are you doing?" This had to be some kind of punishment, seeing as she was the only one here, and most people don't clean abandoned bathrooms for fun.

Telle Dune was lost worst still she was absolutely busting to go the bathroom. Telle didn't even know what floor she was on, after going through a tapestry by accident on the ground floor, all she did was lean back against it, and she disappeared behind it, she could not go back the way she came, so she went onwards through the hidden passageway, up its stairs, at the end of the passageway was another tapestry, again she went through it, this time on purpose. She didn't recognise any of her surroundings nothing appeared familiar to her.
She walked through the hallway, suits of armours every 100m were against the wall. She hoped she would either walk by someone she could ask for directions or find a way off this floor. A rather rundown door caught Telle's eyes, she opened it just an inch, she could see toilets. Relieved she bolted in, the place was run down, she didn't care she was busting to go. She went to the first cubical she saw, sat down and let out a big sigh of relief AAAAAAAAHHHHhhhhhhhh, she would have flushed, but the toilets were so run down that flushing was not an option. She walked out of the toilet went to the sink and washed her hands. She looked up from the basin, to realise a girl was on the floor with a scrub brush and a boy was also present. Telle's face went bright red, she'd made quite an entrance.

“Maggie? Um... What are you doing?”
Maggie sat back on her feet, taking a deep breath. She recognized the boy, Mac, from the Library a couple days earlier. He had another boy with him, one with curly blond hair and blue eyes. She gave Mac a deadpan look, the frustration on her face evident.
“Oh you know,” she said, her voice laced with sarcasm, “I just thought that I’d come down and clean the floors of the Abandoned Toilets, thought it’d be lots of fun.” She laughed at her joke, despite her irritable mood. “Sorry, Mac. I pranked one of my Ravenclaw friends...” she winced as she realized that both the boys in front of her were Ravenclaws. “Sorry about that.” She laughed nervously, bringing her arm over her head to scratch the back of her neck.
Suddenly, one of the doors to the bathroom stalls swung open, and a girl walked out. She was around Maggie’s age, and she wore a yellow and black tie around her neck. She didn’t even notice them until she went to wash her hands, and, when she looked into the mirror, she seemed to notice the three staring at her in varying stages of disbelief. Her face became a bright red color, and she looked at them sheepishly. “These things actually work?” Maggie exclaimed, “I’ve been needing to piss for a good half an hour!”
