She then saw the blue and the emblem on Cora's robes and glanced at her own. She put on a fake smile(smirk) and nodded. "Yep...how exciting...both of us, Ravenclaws," she said with a little more enthusiasm than she felt. A lot more enthusiasm, actually. She was still getting used to her house, and getting over the shock of it all. She then sent a real smile Cora's way. "I always imagined you a Gryffindor," she told the girl truthfully. Or a Huffle. But she didn't say that aloud, since being a duffer probably wasn't a compliment. She couldn't really see her a Ravenclaw, but then again, neither could she see herself in Ravenclaw.

"Classes? Fast paced, and I love it. I would hate to be all bored and such. Very interesting. I really like charms so far, and I couldn't tell why," Which was true. They hadn't really done anything in class, nor had the teacher been exceptionally amazing...but Elliot was drawn to it.

She stared down again at her wriggling toes in the socks, a look of dislike etched into her face.
A gryffindor? Really? Cora was shocked. Truthfully she had always wanted to be a Gryffindor, but she knew her chances of that were slim when she could barely even say hello to someone she just met. Cora knew Elliot was most likely just being nice, but that comment still gave Cora a confidence boost. She smiled.

Cora thought about her classes. She didn't quite think she belonged in defense against the dark arts, but it was a required class. The others were okay. "I like Charms, too, so far. I would have said Herbology is my favorite so far, but I had a rather interesting and not so happy experience with pixies the other day. I just sort of froze up. But I will redeem myself next time. Definitely." Cora was a bit embarrassed about that class.

"So have you met many friends?"
