imperturbatus | The 1st - A Quiet Summer Vacation?

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?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

If Lizzie had the choice to go home she would, however she had found people being very insisting that she come here during the summer instead of doing what the letter said. As for why that might have been, she didn't actually know but she figured she would figure it out later.

Giving a polite curtsy she stood up straight. "I wanted to ask if you have seen someone named Ciel? He wears an eyepatch all the time about this height." She puts her hands to the height he was at currently. "And he also has a beautiful blue eye. Have you seen anyone like that?"

"I have not... Only one?" She blinked frowning. She definitely would have remembered seeing a one-eyed kid, whether they wore a patch or not. Unless it was a glass eye, anyway, but still...

She frowned slightly, so they must not have seen him around. She was running out of places she could think of where he would be and that was worrying her a tiny bit. it mean this place was much bigger than she first thought.

"Yeah, since things happened and he came back he;s always had one eye covered. I assume because something happened... But I don't know what." She felt bad that she didn't know what happened to him during that time, after all she had thought he was dead during it.

Shaking her head slightly she looked over, she didn't want to think about it. "But if you haven't seen him, I should move on."

"... Good luck finding him," She nodded, having the feeling that she might have probed a little too much with how the girl was reacting. Great, she probably made the other girl super uncomfortable then... She was a senior student to this girl, she should have known better. This girl couldn't have been out of first year...

... What could she even say or do though? It wasn't like she could reverse what she had said...

"Thank you." She had brightened up a little bit. It wasn't uncomfortable for her at least, it wasn't something she lingered on, she just looked towards the future and what her life might be like then. "Though are you okay right now, miss?"

"Don't worry about it," Adela shook her head, hiding a little more behind the book she was reading - though it was difficult to focus on the words when she knew the other girl was still there. There were way too many students at the school over the summer, she found herself thinking, but it wasn't like it was that girl's fault that she was there... Well, sort of.

She wasn't sure if the other wanted to speak much longer. It seemed impolite in keep trying to talk when she had other things she was suppose to be doing. So giving a small curtsy she moved to turn around.

"One more thing... If you do see him, will you let me know?"

"I can try?" What was she expecting her to do, track her down if she saw this kid? It'd be easier if she just made no promises, that way she wouldn't have to stop reading. Still, strange girl with ringlet curls wasn't hard to identify at least, so maybe she could tell the other kid that she was looking for him. That'd work, right?
