She did let herself be talked into moving down to the turn in the corridor, where it wasn't stinky at all. "Maybe hopeless is the wrong word. It's difficult and not something I'm going to spend my time on, but if you want to work at it, maybe there's a solution everyone else is missing. Dunno." She shoved her hands into her pockets and shrugged her shoulders up and down. "What's your name?"
Kat followed her down the corridor. She nodded, the seventh year did have a point, Hopeless was the wrong word. She shouldn't have used it. That was bad wording on her part.
"Nothing is impossible." That's what she had told Cornelius the other day. Kat firmly believed that . She didn't know why she was being such a downer. It must have been the stench clogging her brain cells.
"We'll I've got five, basically six years to work on a solution to that stink." She said holding her nose and waving the air.
The smell was gone now just that small stretch of corridor was the only place that made your stomach turn. Oh so maybe Dot didn't know who she was since she had asked her what her name was.
"Katerina.... Kat. Call me Kat. If you'd like." She liked Kat better then Katerina. Not that it mattered, Some people called her Kat or Katy Kat or Katy or they went as far as calling her Katerina. It didn't matter to her.
