The vibe only continued the more the Hufflepuff boy spoke. Cornelia really didn't like his tone, and she found it a bit odd that he was being kind of rude to Claudine one moment and then the next he was being really nice to her. Her brow furrowed a fit. Huh. Older kids were weird and so emotional.
Her thoughts were soon shifted to her leg. Her face winced a bit. She had been so busy getting over the shock of falling through the staircase and being thankful that she didn't die prematurely. To top it all off, she was also trying to figure out why the boy was being so mean and nice at the same time.
Originally she hadn't noticed any pain coming from her ankle. Now, though, she felt something. It wasn't too bad though. She wasn't crying like she almost had been just moments ago. But, then again, what if it being hurt meant she got to be carried around the castle? It was something worth considering... It would be oh-so very convenient... And, if it was an older student, they could chat on their way to whenever she wanted to go and she could get all those questions she had answered...
But she didn't want Rich Boy carrying her around. "I think," she started, looking from one older student to the next for a bit before her gaze settled on Claudine, "I'm alright. I think I just need a minute." She let go of their hands and made an attempt to stand without any support, which only caused Cornelia to wince again.
