"OH, Merlion no, neither am I. We are only ickle firsties. But I am sure that by the time we graduate we will be very polished and nice, the best at whatever we do, Cora. SO don't worry. We're Ravenclaws, afterall," she assured her with a wink and a smirk.
"Well...thanks. I am decent it at it. not nearly as good as my father would like, but I can read it and translate it and stuff. I also have the first dozen stanzas of the first book in the Aeneid memorized, with the correct meter and everything," she bragged, not mentioning what she was going on about. Because if Cora didn't know..well, Elliot wasn't explaining it. Hmph! Cora had been lost in though for a while.
To be honest, Cora hadn't quite thought about whether or not her family had a good reputation by wizarding standards. She supposed they must be well off, but she really didn't know about that much. She supposed her father must have done something quite extraordinary before he died, but then again she knew there was something her mother was concerned about when she didn't let her out. Most likely just paranoia.
Cora blinked. "Thanks," she said, finally responding to Elliot's reassurances. "I'm sure soon we will be wonderful witches." Cora said to reason to herself just as much as Elliot. "Wow, Aeneid, that's quite brilliant really. I suppose that could be useful. What made you decide to memorize it?" |
