Locking herself up in the tower wasn't doing her any good and she needed the fresh air. The crisp December air might actually help her think a bit. There had been a lot on her mind lately.

Finding her way toward the student garden, she smiled. It had been years since she was last there and it was rather different now. The last time she was there it was in third year and at the time, she wasn't all that interested in Herbology. It probably didn't help that the professors during her those times either scared her or confused her to no end. How was she supposed to enjoy a class when the professor seemed to be scared of the plants more than she was. It was a bit sad considering she wasn't even that scared of said plants that often.

But a new year had brought a new professor and this one she did like and Herbology didn't seem all that terrible now. Maybe she would enjoy it a bit more this year, she did like flowers and gardening wasn't something she was against. She was a fan of parks and gardens, so maybe it was about time she just embraced it.

Even covered in frost, it was a rather pretty garden and it brought a smile to her face as well as memories of all the gardens and parks she had seen in the past year.
Riley had been sitting by the fire in the Gryffindor Common Room staring blankly at his bag filled with textbooks and homework assignments. He was neither in the mood to open it or even consider doing the homework today so he decided that it was an outdoors day and he should venture out before someone tried to guilt him into the studial work.

So after wandering aimlessly, except for the intense need to stay away from the Groundskeeper's hut, the seventh year found himself entering the Student garden next to the Herbology greenhouses. He had liked Professor Bentley since he and Jimmy had come down to meet her at the beginning of term and thought it would be nice to maybe tend to some of the plants since it was getting chilly and a bit frosty now. He started to head over to the flutterby bushes when he noticed there was a girl standing not too far away. He just looked at her at first and then wondered if perhaps she would help him, it was a large garden indeed.

"Hey, you, girl!" he barked, then made a face after hearing how mean it sounded. "I mean, would you like to help me tend the plants?" he added to make it sound nicer. Riley tried not to sound mean ALL the time.
