Zahra was supposed to be studying, but never QUITE made it to the library. Though, truth be known, she'd never planned on studying anyway. The peas were to bother annoying, book-up-their-bums Ravenclaws.
But she'd seen this ugly tapestry on the way? So target practice.
"OHHH HOOOOO! DIRECT HIT! EAT PEA, DUCK!" hahahaha!
Distractions, it seemed, could come in any form.
This distraction thing was true.
West was also supposedly heading to the library but he'd got to the door and changed his mind. Studying? No. For what? NEWTs? Qualifications that he had no need for? Nah. So maybe go see Botros? Yes. That sounded better.
But there was a Gryffindor in his way.
A Gryffindor he knew.
A Gryffindor that had been at his house several times, one of his cousin's little fangirly friends. Luckily for him all her attention had been Scan focused... and sometimes Nigel focused? Like they were buddies or something.
And she was.......... shooting peas at a tapestry. It didn't actually bother him one bit. This WAS the boy who, in first year, had thumped a portrait in front of a professor. He understood that two-dimensional wizarding artwork sometimes needed to be taught what was the what. No skin off his nose.
He did stop to watch though. Odessa stare.
