Anytime she knew it was near, she had to have some even if she wasn't hungry.

Which was what had just happened. She had meet her siblings, cousins and Tad in the great hall were they all had eaten a huge lunch. Then she went for a nice walk to the barn to play with some of the creatures before returning to the castle. It hadn't even been an hour maybe and the moment she smelled that sweet scent she made a direct beeline for the great hall once more. Right there on every table was large baskets of bread. Lia couldn't help herself. Her feet were moving without her even realizing it. Before she could think about what she was doing she had a half eaten piece of strawberry bread in one hand and a piece of cinnamon and a piece of orange bread in the other. With her food in hand she headed out into the corridors.

By the time the second year reached the first floor all three pieces of bread were eaten. And her stomach ached now. She felt calm and sleepy though. So relaxed that she really didn't want to continue all the way up to the Ravenclaw tower. She really needed to lay down.

Lia headed to a room she hadn't been in since last term. A room she couldn't bring herself to enter knowing she had part in ruining it. Gently pushing the door open she peered into the Tech lounge and sighed. It was.. different. Certainly not like the previous term. It made her sad. Yet, she also kinda liked the beanbags and the simplicity of it right now. Quietly walking over to one of the beanbags, she set her bag down beside it and sat down. Wiggling around a big until she got herself really comfortable, resting her head back and closing her eyes. All she wanted to do was rest for a few moment. Just until her stomachache went away. There had been no plans on falling asleep..

Ash had been in a bad mood the past few days. It seemed that life was trying to spite her (tell her something she didn't know). She had already been angry about the bread. She had been forced to eat lots of bread. She didn't like it (too sweet), but she felt the urge to eat the bread until she felt ill. And every memory she had of eating the bread felt hazy, and she couldn't remember WHY she was doing it. All those memories(?) were very calm, but they gave her headaches. She always felt worse when she was not eating the bread. She did not want to eat the bread though. And this was an endless cycle. The second thing that was all wrong was that the "computers" (if you could even call them that) in the "tech" lounge were too slow. Ash knew a bit about computers, and she was planning on checking them out so that she could find a way to fix, improve, or replace them.

And there was a third thing that went wrong too. The third thing was the worst thing. As Ash reached into her bag to pull out some computer-related instructional guides, she found something else again. A regular hand mirror. Inexpensive, nonmagical, but a mirror nonetheless. And either someone had been trying to play a prank, or someone had mixed up their things and the mirror had ended up in her bag. Ash didn't care. She didn't even want to know. But either way, this was a BIG PROBLEM.

Ash threw the mirror straight down to the ground with a lot of force.

CRASH!

Thankfully the broken pieces did not go flying. Yay?

The mirror being gone did not make her feel better.

She turned around to go find a broom or something... clean this mess up... oops. She hadn't seen Dahlia sleeping over on the other side of the room. This was awkward.
