Gah...partners?!? Elliot wasn't EVER good at this...she hated new people. Gah.

She saw another girl, either a second or a third year like herself, asking for a partner. Elliot held out her hand and sent the girl her nicest smirk. "Care to be partners? My name is Elliot...I can be quite the actress when I want to be..." cue evil giggle. The blonde's blue eyes flashed mischievously.

She saw another girl, one who she recongized as a fellow claw. She called over to her..."You can join us, if you would like!" and tried her best to look semi-friendly. But it was hard to be friendly and haughty. And Elliot was always haughty.

As for the other girl who was looking for a partner, Ella followed Elliot's lead and waver her over. "Yeah, the more the merrier." She said sincerely, giving the girl a small smile.
