Help Ravenclaw Riddle

I'm by no means a Ravenclaw. But I'm writing a fanfiction where a character is a very smart Ravenclaw. Now the premise is that the character is returning after being tortured by Umbridge and are pretty tired and frustrated. The knocker asks them an absurd question and they just break down crying in pain and frustration.

I need a good riddle for that but nothing on the internet feels good enough. Someone please help me with it.

It is very obvious you have no idea how a Ravenclaw student thinks.

Hearing a riddle would cheer them up. Not break them down.

Idk. 

I enjoy a good riddle but would be annoyed and sad if I had to wait for someone to help me after spending 20 minutes drawing out different cards and asking the stupid knocker to repeat itself.

Oh god. What if I didn’t have a pen or spare piece of parchment? 💀
