Elliot ignored Caelius. He could say whatever he wanted about her to stupid Jayden! And tjey were talking about her as if she wasnt even there! The utter audacity! Elliot most certainly wasn't deaf...she could hear everything!

Elliot wanted to leave. She wanted to go to her bed and write to Dani. They had been growing closer lately, and the 8 year old was actually quite wise for her age. Dani always knew how to charm people,and Elliot wished to learn this from her. She would know what to do...

But she didn't leave because she didnt want them to think that she was upset. Because she wasn't...she just didn't know what to do.

She heard that Jordan kid ask what a morganzo was....she snorted, thinking about how ignorant people were these days. When Caelius mentioned living up to her lineage, she didn't look at him. But her face turned to stone. She would not want to get in a fight with Caelius. But she would if she had to.

It looked like Elliot was in this alone. She should make a shirt that said "team Elliot ' and wear it around...it would at least be entertaining

She turned to the Taylor girl, no longer feeling much like talking, but she didn't want to be rude...
"You won't fail, Taylor. You're a ravenclaw...we don't fail. We excel," she replied with a slight chuckle
