"Nice to meet you Cassia, I'm Addie," she said with a smile. "Now an official seventh year, it's so scary."
With a little jolt the carriage started moving. Why was Hogwarts leaving her????? With one last stare out the carriage window she turned back to Cassia. "Yeah, interesting for sure, no common rooms part of the term, evil ghost dude, evil plant," Addie said as she named off the things that happened that term. It was a lot of weird things. "I don't think I'll ever look at a plant the same way." she announced. After all she had seen two teachers be eaten by an evil plant.
Cassia had thought that two years were enough to meet all of her house-mates. Well, obviously she was wrong. She keeps meeting new people which she liked. The more people she knew the better. You never know when to need them. "
Nice to meet you Addie." Cassia beamed at the girl. Good her name was easy so Cassia was likely to remember it. Because some people took it very personal when she'd like invent another name for them. IT's not her fault she had a lousy memory! And a seventh-year. "
Really! That's really scary!" Ehh.Probably not the best thing to say. But again like the twelve-years old know what was the best to say.
"I mean it must be interesting. And a bit sad." She added. Yeah that should be better. "It's not like we could stay students for the rest of hour lives." Come to think of it, why wasn't that allowed again?
"I am a second-year." She told Addie. "
Or a third year!" She said with a grin. That was the first time she had said that. She need to get used to saying that.
Something was very interesting happening here. Cassia was actually talking with an older student who seemed to be cool! That is remarkable. The snake made a mental note of telling her friend Lex that not all older kids were boring and mean. This Addie seemed the cool type. Once the plant was brought up the younger snake shuddered. "
Guh! I never ever liked plants." She stated. "
And people would think I was weird. Well, duh! Plants eat people and that was proved." She said with a triumph look. She was going to have to remember all the people who thought she was odd for desipising plants. Well, that was hard and needed effort. Maybe she should just forget about it. And as for the common rooms thing. "
Well, on the bright side...." Cassia paused trying to think of a bright side of having to sleep on the ground in the great hall with all the other students! "
Umm...You know it was a way of socializing." That's the best she got.
