However, she brightened when she realized that, at least, stupidity wouldn't be a ruling feature of her house either. Ravenclaw. She might not have found the Ravenclaw legacy to be particularly interesting, but at least she would be surrounded with minds of the same caliber of her own.

Pushing away the still sore and let down part of her that wished she'd been in Slytherin, Olivia turned and looked around for someone to talk to. It seemed that everyone was already in the midst of timid conversation and so, Olivia decided to watch for now rather than speak. She didn't want to interrupt and she also was suddenly feeling rather shy and friendless.

Despite her frightened feelings, Olivia knew that nothing would be greater than Hogwarts once she'd met people and got started in her classes, and until then, she simply waited, listening to the sounds of conversation.
