Drew had sat outside the hospital wing, not actually wanting to go in, but definitely wanting some news on the baby situation. The portraits had gotten so frustrated with him asking for updates that they finally left their frames all together. He hadn't been able to even hear anything going on inside... save for one small cry.
He had jumped to his feet, hoping for the news and had been thankful that Nurse Johnson had finally exited and had answered a few pertinant questions.
Within minutes, he had sprinted the stairs and burst into the common room. A few people were still up, rehashing the events of the day, but for the most part, the room was calm and quiet.
...Until Drew stood at the bottom of the stairs and shouted up "IT'S A GIRL!"

After talking with Layla, Lily had retired immediately to bed. Sleepily, she dragged herself out of bed, if nothing else to yell at him at least. She leaned at the steps and yelled down. "Drew, Vito, whoever you are, I'm too tired to care at this moment, but will you keep it down. Some people are trying to sleep in peace here?" As it was her first night here in rememberance, Lily couldn't help but wonder if he did this often.
((*coughs* thank you time space continum - this is still memory-lack state for Lily))

"Quiet sleeping is currently being done in the BATHROOM!" Drew shouted up again, knowing that was where Psycho-sensitive-ears-girl had ended up from earlier that evening. "The rest of us are having a BIRTHDAY PARTY!" {yeah, sorry Ash, but this is taking place on the night you spent in the bathroom }

"A what?" Arianna had clambered out of her bed at the first shout. Well, she'd actually fallen out when the shouting interrupted an already scary dream. Though she didn't like being woken up, the girl did appreciate not having to continue the dream further and had immediately jumped up and hurried downstairs to find out what was going on.
"The...baby?" she questioned, reaching the bottom in moments. "She had her baby? And you've been down here all this time? It's nearly morning, silly."

"It's just past two," Allegra answered, bounding down the stairs in her pajamas and her short hair pulled up in a scrunchied pony tail that make her look a little like Pebbles. "Baby girl! She had a baby girl? How big? What's the name?" she asked, bombarding her brother with questions.

(( no problem-lol))
Ash groggily turned over on the cold bathroom floor. She had casted the "scour" spell on every inch of the room earlier, it had been absolutely disgusting before, and she had an idea why or rather who. What was that idiot boy yelling about now? Something about a girl? She slammed her hand on the wall angrily. It had been so uncomfortable scrunched up here. She had casted a clever locking charm on the bathroom door, so that it wasn't accessible to anybody outside of the bathroom.
The rest of us are having a BIRTHDAY PARTY!
"Ehhhhh," she moaned wiping the eye crusties away. " ITS HARDLY MORNING!" she screamed angrily. Birthday party? What was he talking about? It suddenly occured to her. The baby! Aih, she had to get down there.
Getting up from the small space she looked around herself. So she really managed to spend a night in the bathroom. Hmm? Where's... Her eyes widened and her mouth fell open. "ahhh..." she moaned again. Her bear, he was... he was in the toilet! The only place she didn't manage to scour.

"I don't know... I don't know," Drew answered his sister making faces at her. "I... I kinda ran back here as soon as the Nurse told me it was a girl. I didn't think about asking the other stuff." Oh well. They'd get that in the morning, most likely.

She picked the soaking wet teddy bear out of the toilet with a squished up expression on her face. Throwing it aside, Ash tried to think of the counter spell to the lock. Ten minutes passed and nothing came up. Screaming in frustration, she slid her fingers under the small gap between the door and the floor, clawing at the ground. Ash knew that this tactic didn't help her although she would never ask for help. She'd rather burn the door down than resolve to that.

"A lot of good you are," Allegra teased, rolling her eyes and jumping on the couch. She had been just about drifiting off to sleep minutes earlier, but was now wide awake and full of energy. "So a party! We need a party!"
It was then she realized what partying at that time of the morning would mean. "We are going to be SO dead tomorrow," she said, wondering how that would impact her first day in classes.

Kellen was somewhere in the middle of a dream when he heard the excited voices coming from the common room. It could only mean one thing: New Ravenbaby!
He rushed down the stairs to join the party he was sure was going on. "So? Boy? Girl? Twins? Triplets?" he asked excitedly.

"Baby girl... baby girl... Ravenbaby sister girl..." Drew sang, doing the cabbage patch from on top of the sofa before taking a moment to think it through. "Well, I guess she's actually a Gryffindor too, huh?... Ravendor... Ravendor... baby girl's a Ravendor..."

"Nah. It's a girl? Means she'll take after Raynor. Therefore, brilliant little Ravenbaby it is." Kellen was sure of it. They'd have to dress her in blue though, just to be sure. And make sure she was in the common room a lot, to get all the brilliance vibes Ravenclaws sent out.
"Oh, hey, does she have a name? Or did you run off before you heard it?"

"He ran off before he got it," Allegra teased, making a face at her brother. She had pulled her wand and was currently conjuring blue streamers, sending them over the rafters and down on the Ravenclaws.
"These should probably be pink, but blue is so much better..." she mused as she surveyed her work.

"Blue or pale orange," Arianna muttered, not caring for pink, either. She didn't think Raynor was fond of the colour, either. "The child must not take any shade of red. That's like saying she's more Gryffie than Raven."

"She'll be like 101 Dalmations, when all the boy dogs wore red collars and the girl dogs wore blue collars," Kellen commented. He agreed, the baby shouldn't wear pink or red. Firstly, pink wasn't a good colour. Secondly, it was Gryffie, and that was simply wrong.
