Serge is for Ali, but Serena is free :3 • HuffleStud • Knight of The Zodiac • Manly Beard-Grower • Cicatrice de Harry •
Serena stepped out of the carriage, hearing the familiar sounds of the water from the fountain. She was back at her second home... for the final time. Her makeup was very light today, looking natural but enhanced in just the right way as her eyelashes batted away the hint of tears. Deep breaths. She looked back to see if her little brother was going to stand by her side... probably not. But that's okay, she had other plans.
Her closed heels met the grass before she parked herself at one of the benches. Then she took a small notepad of parchment and quill to begin writing her thoughts. At least until the new first years arrived. She was looking forward to entertaining the sight of the newly sorted students.
Serge came out of a different carriage. By the time they landed, he recognized the silhouette of Serena walking across the grass before he too walked out with his friend Johnny. At 14, he felt at ease now with the transition leaving home for school now. Beforehand, he often felt like a statue moving about for the entire week before he got comfortable again. This meant he didn't need to drink as much calming teas now, which was a plus.
Serge looked to see what his friend thought. What was nice was knowing that he could be comfortably silent without the pressure to speak. Which made it easier for him to share his thoughts, "So... are you going to show me your piano talents again this year?" He asked. |
