[Corridors] Which Way is South?

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney dug the map out of her front pocket and unfolded it. She was staring down at the map that had gotten her lost. She turned it over to reveal a blank side. She took the quill from Cris and walked to the stone wall. She made a few scribbles to where they were along with the stairs that led to the astronomy tower. She figured she could make the actual map back in the common room. When Laney finished, she handed the quill back to Cristian until they needed it again. "If I screw it up, you can always help me fix it in the commonroom," she said with a laugh.

[christianmartinez]

Cristian watched as she scribbled part of the map so far.
"Okay" he said smiling at her.
"You keep the quill for now, your the map maker, i'm the er torch bearer" he said laughing as he held his wand like a torch above his head.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney couldn't help but laugh at Cris, "I have such an important role compared to yours," she said taking her hair and twisting it into a bun. She took the quill and pushed it through her hair. She knew she wouldn't lose it if it was on her head. Carolanne nudged Cris, "Well I guess your role is important for me," she said grinning at him.

[christianmartinez]

Cris laughed.
"Oh really...Right then missy, i'm going to take lumos off then!" he said pretending he was about to say the incantation.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney's eyes widened, "You wouldn't!" she said gazing into his eyes. The truth was, she didn't know if he was kidding or not. She's had that joke played on her too many times before. Laney quickly covered Cris' mouth with her hands, "Please don't" she said.

[christianmartinez]

Cristian licked her hand.
"I'm only joking you, I'm not THAT cruel" he laughed.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Carolanne brought her hands back quickly when he licked one of them. "Hey," she said laughing. She gave a fake pout, "I hope you were joking," she said before turing her pout into a smile. Laney went to turn around then thought twice about it. "Here, you can have this back," she said wiping her hand on his arm.

[christianmartinez]

Cristian laughed at her.
"Thanks, I've always wanted my own saliva back" he said jokingly.
They came up to a crossroads in the corridors.
"Left takes us to two dark rooms, I'm guessing you don't want to go in there, and right takes us around to about four seperate rooms I think" He said, trying to remember the mental map in his head.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney laughed, "Well keep it to yourself next time," she said nudging him. When they approached the next corridor, she looked from left to right. They both looked equally dark from where she was standing, but Cris had reassured her earlier that she'd be fine with him there. Thinking she should be brave, she closed her eyes tightly, "Left?" she said before opening them and looking at Cris.

[christianmartinez]

Cris looked at her in confusion.
"You sure? There's not much down there anyway" he said, giving her a reason not to go if she didn't want to.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Carolanne shrugged at him, "I don't know. I just figured that it wouldn't be so dark as long as we had our wands with us. But if there's really nothing down there, then we can go right," she said looking down the corridor.

[christianmartinez]

Cris smiled.
"Alright. There's a room just here anyway" he said leading her around the corner and opening a dark wooden door.
"Lumos Maximus" he uttered and his wand immediately brightened.
"Come on" he smiled. He held the door open and pulled her gently inside.
"Put your wand on Lumos, then we can have a rummage around" he said.

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney still clung to Cristian as he opened the door and pulled her in. She reached for her wand, pulled it out and muttered, "Lumos," once said, the tip of her wand lit up. She looked around the room and inspected it from afar. It must've been an old classroom because it was filled with dusty desks. Laney walked over to a nearby desk and pushed her finger down in the dust and started to write her name.

Cristian watched her then decided to look in some draws. He pulled them open and most were empty, and a few had old quills and bits of parchment in. He read the parchment pieces and they were obviously notes that had been passed around.
"Find anything interesting?" he muttered as he pointed his wand in her direction so he could see her

[Carolanne Roberts]

Laney looked up from the desk and watched Cristian. When he spoke to her, she shook her head, "Just lots of dust," she said to him. Carolanne looked back down at the desk and brushed off the dust she had written in. She pulled herself up onto the desk so she was sitting on her. She let her legs hand loose as she continued to watch Cristian rummage around with a smile playing on her face.
