Okay, Rolan nation, I need your help. I've recently fallen for our grumpy, pathetic (affectionate) tiefling wizard and I NEED to write a fic about him.
I have the idea of a Hogwarts!AU (overdone yes, but necessary for my brain apparently). I feel very strongly about Rolan being a Ravenclaw, it feels right and makes sense for his character. My tav, a transfemme, will probably be a Ravenclaw also, and is very accomplished academically, in every subject except arithmancy and she encounters a situation where she is locked out of the Ravenclaw commonroom due to the riddle for the door being arithmancy based. Of course, in time, Rolan comes along and solves the riddle for her, but being his usual grumpy self, he berates her for it and she gets understandably very upset (she's friends with Lia, but also obviously has a tentative crush on Rolan). Rolan has a to realize he was an ass, get his act together to apologize (with the help of his siblings) and ultimately confess to her yada yada you get the idea.
My problem is... What houses are Cal and Lia in??? They don't feel like Ravenclaws, but I can't really pinpoint where they would belong, so I would LOVE some suggestions and headcanons!
Also if you'd like to give me suggestions for where the origin characters would be in terms of houses, I would love that too.

They say violence is not the answer.
They’re right. Murder is.

home to barty is:
ravenclaw commonroom. emmeline under a blue blanket with pandora snuggled at her side. dorcas sitting on the ground with her head in pandoras lap. barty has his own head in dorcas's lap. regulus sitting in an armchair reading. evan braiding emmelines hair.
the smell of vanilla, chocolate colored eyes. the smell of old books and ink. the raw feeling of skin on skin. blunt nails digging at his back.
cold water at his legs. loud laughter and curses. evan carrying pandora and throwing her in the water. regulus's voice. bright sun turning him blind.

When putting together the Ravenclaw commonroom back in October, I had to fill the planters with something, so I started searching through my runtime and found a ring of lavender. @lil-grem-draws and I had already started on the Helliam AU and I thought how cute would it be if Hellendil transfigured whatever had been there into lavender so he could come take a sniff, or pick a sprig when he was missing Will. It turned out to be a great idea, because the house elves could place additional decorations in the center for the holidays!
A few weeks ago, I showed her, we had a good laugh and then Hellendil proceeded to convince Will they should have a cuddle there in their animagus forms. So here are our animal babies, cuddling in the lavender planter. 💕

I'm head of Ravenclaw House headcannons:
The moment you failed your class, I deliver the news with great many compliments. Not to lie or to divert from the bad news, but because you'll need to see the good side to divert from the emotional crisis you'll convert into once you hear how your grades were. It will stick with you once you return on the train and at least some of it will encourage you to not go into a downwards spiral. I'll make sure to owl you a list of things to do on how to relax after a hectic semester at Hogwarts. It'll be filled with 10 jokes and 5 ways to exactly relax, suited just to your personality.
I slip random noticeboard suggestions to have house raves or parties. The students plan the party but I'm definitely letting the grey lady chaperone to make sure nobody dies of intoxication, and if anyone gets sick, she hurries to get me.
My, yes, you can always get extra Fluffy towels with me. I know the school towels aren't what they used to be and I've got a supply closet filled with thousands of blankets, towels and fluffy objects that might satisfy your very neurotypical needs.
There's a basket of random trinkets inside my office which you can grab to twitch or fumble with in conversations with me. Sometimes holding something allows us to think better or study better, I hand them out in study hall as well.
There's monthly duelling. I promote it, actually. You need to study, you need to learn and Ravenclaw has the best duelling room Hogwarts has ever known.... ;)
Course I'll help you if you're afraid of the Dark. No, it is not a burden. Wake me tf up. I'll stand in the corridor all night if you think there's a boogeyman hidden in the closet. Trust me, as head of Ravenclaw, I'll bring you some nice warm drink and consider telling you some random tale about whatever fits best at the big hearth in the common room before sending you to bed with a half moon 🌙 shaped night lantern.
I tolerate zero bullying, however. You'll have to scrub the balcony, I'm afraid. That high up, we have loads of birds that shit on the edges. Though, on the bright side, it is beautiful at night to gaze at the stars. And manual labour makes teenagers regret their decisions at life. Plus, after 1hr you can leave. I'll pop in to check up on you but I'm always lenient to let you go off with a good word of wisdom.
Lockhart and I don't get on. The whole house is ofcourse, making notes of the whole situation. I visit him in the hospital though, turns out he's still as loony as he was before but less cocky. From then on, I make a basket with trinkets Ravenclaws can make creative artsy things and put them in the Lockhart donation bucket. Because the lesson in it is, even the loony bin (ironically) is worth of creativity and personal attention.
At Christmas, the whole common room is covered in a snowlike appearance. I don't want to exert in garlands so they're mostly made of neutral colours. That way, I don't cause the whole of Ravenclaw to have aneurysms and everyone keeps a happy atmosphere and a winter spirit.
You bet your ass I'm crashing your parties, flaunting some groovy moves and singing ABBA.
Every month there is some kind of event. Something I make up as we go. Karaoke night. A harvest party. Valentines day rave. Samhain Trivia night. It's all themed. Mostly diverted with activities for the first to third years and the fourth to seventh years get to enjoy some real good times with open doors hour. That time other houses can freely walk into the commonroom and join their party. :) the ravenclaw tower is too far up anyway, nobody hears anything.
I get in trouble with Dumbledore so often you'd think I was a student. He tolerates me as I am the only pro-LGBTQ professor who knows he's 🍓fruity🍓 along with Prof Mcgonagall. We greatly discuss the most handsome wizards in Witch Weekly each weekend.
I look a lot like the grey lady. We also walk a lot together in deep conversation, which is when some students listen in or enjoy the topic of conversation in secret.
I give Muggle Born parents a full on manual on how to respond to certain topics regarding Trolls, the grading system, Spells, Wand regulations, a short guideline on wizarding laws to abide by and all the missing stuff they haven't received from the deputy or Headmaster.
Homework help for all examination stress students & counselling of course. No need to feel ashamed if you want to have a witch weekly about how to flirt with that random ass slytherin student you've been passing eyes at. I'll give you a thumbs up.
There's always 1 big end of the year party.
The Quidditch Team has the best hours to practice, especially cause I get up so early to set the dates for them.
We have a room in the Ravenclaw Tower just for naps & meditation or destressing. It's a quiet area.
On nights before exams I give everyone enough food during their late night studying. Even cupcakes and freshly baked cookies or warm soup.

I'm fascinated by the Hogwarts Legacy architecture. I've been looking at it for hours, it's so pretty.
Tumblr media
It really makes me wish there was a game just for those who literally just wanted to be students at Hogwarts - and nothing else. No fights with anybody, no quests, no avada kedavras, just being a student at Hogwarts, forever.
A tour of all of the houses’ rooms under the cut. They’re just so breath-taking.

ABOUT:
Character name: Benjy Fenwick Age & Birthday: 26 & November 22 Gender & Pronouns: Cis-male & He/Him Occupation: Barista at Borealis Cafe, Ex-Auror Blood status: Muggleborn Previous house: Ravenclaw Affiliation: Order of the Phoenix Face claim: Tom Holland
BIOGRAPHY:
The Fenwick's had always been loving folks. Miriam Fenwick worked as a primary school teacher, and Liam Fenwick was a banker, the couple had been high school sweethearts who married young and always dreamt of having a big family. Although they quickly learned that dream might not be possible for them, as Liam had issues with infertility. This information wouldn't stop them, and they opened their home for foster children, figuring if they couldn't have any of their own, at least they could help children who needed it. It wasn't long before they adopted their first child, Anna, and a second came soon after, Oliver.
Even with their two children, the Fenwick's still took in foster kids as often as possible, knowing they were positively impacting these kids' lives. They loved every child that came into their lives, it didn't matter what situation they came from, every kid deserved to have someone that cared for them. By some miracle, Miriam had found out she was pregnant, and the Fenwick’s were overjoyed to find out another member was being added to the family. Miriam’s pregnancy was a breeze, and Thomas was born happy and healthy. Benjy’s mother, on the other hand, wasn’t so lucky. Her pregnancy was difficult and unfortunately passed away only a few short hours after the birth of her son. Despite the fact that they had a newborn themselves, the Fenwick’s couldn’t turn away a baby the same age as Thomas when asked to foster him.
The plan was only to foster Benjy for a few weeks while social workers attempted to contact his family members, but it seemed the poor child didn’t have any living relatives on his mother’s side, and his father was unknown. At this point, though, the Fenwick’s couldn’t dream of giving Benjy up, having taken care of him for the first few weeks of his life, and the pair adopted him, bringing in the sixth member of the family.
Being only a month apart in age, Benjy and Tommy were incredibly close. Despite the fact that they looked nothing alike, everybody considered them twins. They did absolutely everything together and basically lived in their own little world. Of course they loved their other siblings, but Anna and Oliver were older, and almost ready to move out on their own by the time the boys were ten. The house was never quiet, though, with foster siblings coming in and out of their lives every few weeks. The Fenwick house was always full of love, family and acceptance.
Benjy had known there was something different about him, strange things happened around him whenever he felt strong emotions. The only person he’d told was Tommy, but it became quite difficult for him to hide it. Everything began to make sense on his eleventh birthday, when a woman dressed in eccentric robes showed up at the house, explaining that Benjy was a wizard, and inviting him to attend Hogwarts. Everybody was ecstatic learning that Benjy was special. Everybody but Tommy. Tommy was upset, his best friend would be leaving him, but eventually, he warmed up to the idea after knowing that Benjy would be home for the holidays and summer break.
Arrival at Hogwarts was the most exciting thing young Benjy had ever experienced. Everything was incredible and magical, and he was happy to call the castle his home throughout the school year. He was sorted into Ravenclaw for his wit and his ability to think outside the box. The Ravenclaw commonroom was where he’d had his first encounter with bullying and discrimination. According to some of his housemates, his blood was dirty and he would never be a decent wizard because of it. He never let their hateful words get to him, knowing that kids were bullies due to their own insecurities. Instead, he proved them wrong, coming out as one of the top students in every class. Magic was so interesting, different from the more mundane subjects he’d learned about at his muggle school, and he could retain the information easily since he was actually interested in it.
Eventually, the bullying died down, and Benjy was thriving. He was popular given his ability to find the good in everybody, he was intelligent and still found time to play on the quidditch team as a chaser. However, his favourite time of the year was any time he got to go home and see Tommy, they were still incredibly close despite the fact that they spent the majority of the year apart from each other. They were so close, in fact, that as soon as they both graduated, the two of them moved in together in a small apartment in London. Benjy dove straight into auror training, while Tommy was going to university to study law.
Auror training went well, and he was fast-tracked as a fully certified auror in under a year due to the war. It was hard work, but Benjy was determined and managed to make it through with no complaints. Benjy served as an auror for a few years, and he made his way through the ranks, becoming one of the most notable aurors in the department. But, with a shift in power, changes began happening in the Ministry. The first victims being the auror department. Some lame excuse about too many members on the team and not enough criminals in the streets, but the only people who were let go happened to be muggleborns. Benjy left his position, but not without making a scene first. It wasn’t fair, it wasn’t right, and he wasn’t going to leave without making that known.
Instant regret hit him when he arrived back at his apartment to see the dark mark floating in the sky. His heart sank into the pit of his stomach as he walked in to see his brother on the ground, unmoving. It was the absolute worst day of his life, and Tommy’s funeral was a close second. He decided that day to obliviate his family, remove himself from their memories in order to keep them safe. He couldn’t let what happened to Tommy happen to them. It’s only been a few months since then, and Benjy has been having a hard time adjusting. He managed to find a job, a barista, which wasn’t ideal but it paid the bills. Some day this war would be over, and until then, Benjy was going to do what he could to make things right.

Ravenclaw Common Room
- huge windows everywhere with the most delicate curtains
- to go with the windows, a window seat for each one complete with fluffy blankets and pillows
- an entire fridge dedicated to caffeinated drinks to power through late night studying
- a communal bowl of stationery (spare parchment, inks of all colors, maybe even some “pens”)
- always smells of citrus and jasmine
- a chilling 68 degrees F (20 degrees C) to prevent sleepiness
- however if you want to sleep, help yourself to the cart of chamomile tea or melatonin gummies
- at night the room is full of candles, each student having their own scent, so the room smells like Bath and Body Works, only better
- theres always chatter happening- but its never really gossip (if you listen, you can hear the ravenclaws arguing over the number of leeches needed to concoct a polyjuice potion)
- luna is always talking to the eagle, asking it riddles
- some Ravenclaws are hosting tutoring sessions, charging the desperate Gryffindors 10 galleons per hour
- many students fall asleep whilst studying, but they have an alarm system that blasts eine kleine nachtmusik every hour
ill probably add more to this as i think of them :)

Overheard in the Ravenclaw Commonroom
“technically, sleeping at night is just taking long naps in between daily tasks and routine. if you think about it, there’s no real difference between a nap and going to bed.”
“thanks, i hate it”

Ravenclaw- the feeling you get when you know the answer, when you finally figure out the simple problem. making little doodles on your paper, painting random strokes aimlessly. knowing all the words to a random song, because it keeps you calm, it makes you happy. you don’t need to be perfect, you can make it, you can make it, you can make it.

I just wondered if there is anything out there like a virtual study room but sorted after Hogwarts Houses - like a virtual common room you can join to study...?
