Claudine easily opened the box using the scissors and was already carefully unloading the contents when Avalon joined her. What she really wanted to reply and say was ‘No, I would like to work on my own, thank you very much.’ Not because she was rude but because she liked to work by herself. Then again, she could use some help getting this table assembled. “Hi. Why not?” And she continued emptying the box. After a moment, her housemate joined them. “Hi, Fiona. You can.’’ Surely Avalon didn’t mind. This also meant that their group was full; no more members, thank goodness.

The introvert looked down at all they had unpacked. Her expression was a blank and uncertain one and remained that way as she looked to the other two girls. “I guess we start with attaching the legs to those thinner strips of wood. Afterwards, we would attach the table top?” If either of them had other ideas, she was all ears but for now, Claudine grabbed a leg and a wood strip. “Screws and bolts to hold them together. I guess?”

She was doing a lot of guessing here.
Avalon smiled as another young Slytherin joined the group. At least they might have a better chance of figuring this out with another helper. She reached out to grab the bag of metal things, presuming that they were what Claudine called 'screws and bolts.' Gingerly picking up the scissors, she snipped the bag open and dumped the little things out on the floor with a clink.

She stared blankly at the materials, unsure of where to begin. "Aren't there supposed to be instructions in here?" she asked, shaking the box upside down. A packet of paper floated out, landing on top of the wood. "Oh! There it is." Flipping through the papers, she raised an eyebrow. There were only pictures in here. No words. Avalon peered at the first step, trying to decipher the illustrations. "So I think we need to put the frame of the table together first, and then attach the legs last. Does anyone know what tool we need for the screws?" She rummaged through the toolbox, pulling out some odd-looking contraptions. "Maybe this one?" she asked, holding up a pointy metal thing.
