1st Cute Thing | Getting lost and getting cute

[offrillsandswords]

A) Stairways
[Lizzie wondered about since things haven't officially started just yet and she knew she had the time until she did to get use to all the strange things here. As she walked, her eyes darted, looking at some painting as they moved from one frame to another and she looked up as one of the stairs move from it's old position to moving towards the next.

It was strange and still a lot to take in. She wasn't even sure she could. Maybe if she were to do something that she loved, then maybe it would be easier. Maybe. As she made her way down the stairs this thought went over and over in her head as she thought about what she liked could come across from here.

She finally managed to start going down another set of stairs before she even realized that they had move and not to where she wanted to go. Nervously she went and got off, looking around quietly. Now where was she.]

Hello... Anyone around?

B) Courtyard
[She was focused as she started to write with her quill and parchment. But what could she be writing? She wasn't making it obvious, but after five minutes she stops, a small smile brightening up her face as she suddenly shot up, her ink still sitting in the grass, but her parchment was raised up high into the air.]

I did it! I thought up a club. [Once the words escaped her lips, she lowered it once more to look at it and slowly but sure her smile turns into a little frown.]

I wonder if they would allow it though.

C) Gryffindor Common Room
[She didn't like how dank and drab the common room always felt, so Elizabeth had brought it upon herself to brighten up the place with a few things she had managed to smuggling in her trunk. Whoever enters will see bright red, gold and even a tiny bit of pink streamers hanging from the ceiling. Frills adorned the bottoms of most of the couches, still in a nice gold colour and finally the top of the fireplace had a giant red bow on it.

The young girl herself clapped her hands together happily, looking at her hard work.]

There we go, that is so much better.

The 1st - A Quiet Summer Vacation?

[enchantressofore]

OUTSIDE, IMMEDIATE CAMPUS GROUNDS

She was there early, but it didn't really matter. Her family on all sides were just too busy this year to take her back, and it made her wonder why things had to be like that.

Still, Adela sort of liked the some-what empty campus. Summer homework was easy to finish without any distractions, she could spend more time with Saggia, and she had to admit that Hogwarts was a beautiful campus in the summer. In fact, on a beautiful day with few white clouds in the sky and the sun shining bright, it was hard to resist taking her broom for a spin around campus. She didn't really have a chance before between getting it for her birthday and exams, so what better time than right then and there!

It wasn't hard to see her racing with her owl in the sun, and she grinned and laughed before the two landed on the roof, seating herself and relaxing a bit as she looked over the broom and enjoyed the company of her pet. It was kind of nice and isolated up here... There was nothing in the world quite like flying.

LIBRARY, COMMON AREA

It was probably a strange sight, to have one of the summer students actually studying during her stay at Hogwarts. Even stranger still was that she was in fact not a Ravenclaw but clearly wearing Hufflepuff colours even with summer clothing. The strangest thing at all was that it wasn't homework she was researching, but instead it was reading Hogwarts: A History with other wizarding history books piled beside the luxurious chair she had seated herself in. She'd gotten enough sunshine for one day, and with most of her summer homework completed... Even three years later, she couldn't help her desire to learn about the world she had no idea existed until she turned eleven.

Still, it was quiet even for a library. Not that she minded the silence, but part of her wished she was allowed to bring Saggia into the library, if only for the company...

HUFFLEPUFF, COMMON AREA

A long day, a quiet but bright night where sunset hadn't happened yet. It was nice to sit by the fire even if the summer evening was already quite warm, but the ice water provided in the rooms helped. Still, she wasn't tired yet, so maybe... This would help her get there. If only so that she could get away from that cat for a little while.

Why did it like her so much? Sure it was cute, but it wasn't like she was its owner. Didn't it belong to that girl Naminé?

There were a lot of transfer students coming in, she thought to herself absently. It was a little confusing, but it wasn't like it was her business. She didn't even feel like reading anymore, but what else could she do?
