She wasn't sure why, but inclement weather always made her want to stay in, working over a bubbling cauldron. The blonde wasn't sure if it was the warmth of the potion over a flame or just the comfort of her favorite pastime.

Once she was finished with her lunch, the 16 year old started on her long journey back up to Ravenclaw Tower. She knew it didn't make a whole lot of sense to go all the way up there, then all the way back down when the Great Hall was that much closer to the dungeons, but she had none of her supplies to brew any potions with her. Besides, maybe it would be prudent to read from her book and figure out what she wanted to brew before she got back down there. It wasn't like she was in that much of a rush anyway, she had nothing else really planned for the rest of the day now that it was raining.

Once she stepped inside, Claudette took notice of those already present and took a seat in one of the plush chairs after giving Gaston a nod. She had known of him from her days at Beauxbatons being a former classmate, or at least of his reputation, and didn't think it would hurt to be friendly now that he was here for a time as well. "Bonjour Gaston," she said before pulling her potions journal from her tote bag. Now.. what to brew?

She flipped lazily through her journal, trying to decide on what to work on when her eyes darted up every now and again, finally falling on the plate of sweets on a table nearby. She looked at them curiously for a moment, then in the immediate vicinity. Where these for anyone? She wasn't sure.. though she supposed she wouldn't mind something a little sweet after her lunch..

Gaston watched and stayed for a moment, knowing if he left in such a hurry he would look suspicious yet he did have other things he needed to do. Such as prepare for the tournament that were to continue the following day. He was just about to leave when he saw a familiar face.

It took him a while before he realized she was a former Beauxbaton student. What he could not remember was her name which was why when she greeted him he paused for a short moment before smiling his pearly white smile and then finally greeting her. "Bonjour, Mademoiselle."He nodded at her, then looked towards the boys dormitory.

Yes, he would leave now, he needed to study. "I must prepare for tomorrow, I shall see you soon." Hopefully after she had eaten one of his sweets. He got up and headed away.
