Things Happening In The Ravenclaw Common Room Part 7
. A sonnet titled "Ode To The Stare Of A Bewildered Niffler (Dedicated To Herbert)" has just been completed.
. A very stressed 7th Year is chugging the Ravenclaw Study Special: coffee mixed with a concerning amount of Red Bull.
. A makeup-savvy student is trying to make it look like she has bowling alley carpet on her eyes. This is what she's got so far:
Tumblr media
. The Head Girl is enchanting mindfulness colouring books to move like the paintings so she can deposit them to exam taking students for some de-stress time.

Ravenclaws Are...(Part 6)
Watching in-depth video essays on games you've never heard of, spending hours making up stories about constellations, Brian David Gilbert in general and Unravelled in particular, overly competitive Scrabble games, making the most bizarre and incomprehensible memes possible, doing overly intricate hair and makeup for fun, Letterboxd lists

Around exam time, the Ravenclaw Prefects and Head Boy and Girl will organise a few optional de-stress nights. Popular activities include personally enchanted moving colouring books, a make your own calming tea evening, nostalgic movie nights and the ever-beloved Galaxy Light Show. Although some students thrive under pressure, these nights are available to everyone to ensure that no one feels like they must push themselves past their limit to be accepted.

Personal headcanon that Ravenclaws seem all smart and wise but the second they get into the common room everything is chaos
Ravenclaws all share one brain cell, it’s just better functioning than the griffindor brain cell

Urban Legends About Ravenclaws
-Students have been summoning eldritch abominations (accidentally or otherwise) for centuries. Cthulhu himself has been summoned at least ten times.
-Someone made a lava lamp filled with actual lava and almost burned the Tower down in the process.
-At least one of the many anatomically correct skeletons scattered around the Common Room, dorms and hallways is real and/or sentient.
-A 6th Year once Accio-ed the squid into the school to be their date for the Yule Ball.
-A small group of dedicated biology enthusiasts somehow got a cat and a Blast-Ended Skrewt to reproduce.
-Of the countless hidden rooms in Ravenclaw Tower there’s a library of books swiped from the Restricted Section, a tiny, functional clockwork city and a ginormous tank with a humpback whale in it.

In the Ravenclaw Common Room…
There’s a longstanding tradition of keeping track of not how MANY house points each person gets, but how ABSURDLY the points were achieved.
At the end of the year, after Gryffindor wins the house cup, Ravenclaws go back to their common room and determine who was awarded house points for the most ridiculous reason. They’re awarded a trophy and great honor.

Many Ravenclaws find themselves drawn to surrealism in all forms. Some adore the paintings, with all the shapes, colours and bizarre creatures. Others are fascinated by the films, how they push the boundries of visuals and narratives to create an entirely new way of telling stories. Some love the fashion, ignoring how people actually dress in everyday life and creating something that looks like it belongs in a fever dream, or perhaps a different dimension. Many enjoy all of these, and more-as long as it’s weird and challenges the mind, Ravenclaws are fascinated by it

Ravenclaw Tower is full of hidden rooms that were designed to keep students curious. If a student is the first to discover a new room, their name is written on one of the walls in gold. Any other student who discovers the room thereafter gets their name written in silver.

A few years ago a group of older Ravenclaws discovered that when the school was first founded, a masquerade ball was held annually. They went around petitioning to bring it back, but since only people in their house seemed interested they seemed to drop it. In reality there is a masquerade ball held every year, in Ravenclaw Tower. A select few teachers are made aware in advance (Flitwick because he’d find out anyway and Madame Pomfrey in case something goes wrong), but no other teachers or students are even aware of it. A small group will go into the dressmaker’s in Hogsmeade each time they visit, people will buy or borrow or make masks, and a few hours before it starts the soundproofing on the Common Room is doubled. It’s usually near the end of the year, and it’s a good opportunity to be two of the things Ravenclaws most love to be: historical and extra.

headcanon idea: ravenclaws have a steady amount of floo powder supply at the ready in the common room, because even if they can’t actually leave hogwarts they’re definitely using to sneak around school in the dead hours of night.
Very useful if you need a certain book from the library in the middle of the night or a quick snack from the kitchens

Ravenclaw; “You smell just like...
A freshly made espresso. The lingering scent after using oil paint and paint thinner. The pages of an old book. The air outside after a thunderstorm has passed.  Leather jackets, looking badass isn’t just for Slytherin. Fresh eucalyptus leaves when they’re plucked and twisted. Salted caramel candies. Sweet wine. Pressed and dried flowers. Chai tea with a cinnamon stick to swirl. Nutella on animal crackers. Nail polish remover fumes. Wet autumn leaves stuck to the pavement on a road. An aftershave that makes head turns when you walk by. Peach or strawberry flavored candy. Quill ink

Ravenclaw Headcanon
Ravenclaws wander the halls in their free time, because Hogwarts is so old, they know that even in deserted hallways they can learn something new.
