Fifteen years, and no one had moved the trophy room, logically of course, who would? He knew how heavy some of those awards had been, detentions were so common Filch had ran out of ideas for a spell.
Chuckling lightly at the memories he began circling the room, admiring the achievements of the students in between the time he knew, and the time he was in.
(Open.)

Lily walked into the room, just looking for some place quiet she could revise a bunch of things she had written - all still in her tatty black notebook. She nearly dropped it though, at the sight of this man. There was never anyone in here, much less anyone old. "Uh," she questioned. "Who are you?"

"A ghost from the past in a physical from. Professor Shaw, your Herbology professor, as well as Hogwarts alumni." Robert claimed pausing at one of only three awrds Dabbage had received their seven year rampage.
"And you are, Miss?" Robert inquired, as she was to be one of the many he would be teaching.

"Lily Tasando," she replied, answering him curtly. "5th year Ravenclaw. You just startled me is all. I wasn't expecting anyone to be up here. That's the whole reason I come. Sure the room of requirement is nice, but I like the feeling I get in here. It has a certain energy about it." She felt like a total loon trying to explain it too him.

"A pleasure, I do hope that room hasn't moved fromt he seventh floor..." Robert quipped as he gave a small smile to the award and used the hem of his robe to give it a light, but well needed shining.

Lily shook her head. "Nope it's still there. Same old directions to find it too as far as I know. Or at least I was taught how to find it, I didn't just find it on accident. I play piano there a lot, that's mainly what I use that room for. Never really thought about using it for anything else, til today that is." She explained to him.

"Mmmhmm, one of the many other places I shall have to, visit, again." Robert claimed with a small nod. A small silence entered before the man spoke again.
"Piano you say? Interesting, you play well?" Robert inquired tilting his head slightly. Robert was a man who favored more the classical music, a good piano, over what was now called 'music' today.

Lily shrugged. "Supposedly I do," she said. "I've been playing practically all my life. I can read notes very well and I can sightread very well and my fingers just know what to do. I don't think about playing it well anymore, I just think about playing. It's just a part of me now." She shrugged again, that was all she could really say about it.

"Intrigueing way of thinking, I can se why you were put into my old house, is that ruddy gargoyle still there? He never did like me...course, back in the day none of us liked him much either." He commented with a small chuckle.

"Yes he's still there," Lily said. "Unfortunately. And he doesn't like us anymore than he did you I imagine. Take too long with the password and you may just lose your head. Rather annonying if I say so. 'Specially if you're talking to someone and you just want to finish the sentence, but no, he doesn't like that."

"Never did I suppose, must've been Rowena's way of reminding us of who helped make this place..." Robert said solemnly, allt he while wondering if any of the house knew anything of their founder.
"So, ol' Stoney's still giving trouble as well, suppose I'll have to go see him for old time's sake." He said, a small twinkle creeping into his eye at the thought. Surely that statue wouldn't actually remember him. Atleast, he hoped not.

"You mean you actually want to go see him?" Lily asked incredulously. She was truely stumped. "Why would anyone want to go see that old thing? I mean, he's mean and nasty and he should guard Slytherin instead. Why he gave me a right nasty bruise last week! See him? I think not."

"Mean and nasty, but one oft he few things from here that is, still here." Shaw replied solemnly. So many had been lost to the war, so few were left, what he did have left he intended to make the most of, even the gargoyle.

"The ghosts are still here sir," Lily said. "I'd suggest talking to one of them instead. They're much nicer, well most of them are. Not Peeves though, but I suppose he doesn't really count because technically he's not a ghost. The Grey Lady is pretty nice though, I see her around quite a bit."

"Ah yes, Nick floating in during meals, the Barron occasionally surfacing form his dungeon hideaway, nice for the most part, but, not really my knid of company, neither's oll' stone face, but, at least he's liable to remember me." He claimed with a small chuckle.
"Rowena Ravenclaw, fine name, awful sense of humor."
