 Sardines ♥ // Nomsy, yo ❄ rolling in the ink ❄
Her posture had slowly melted as Cat settled into her couch. Her book (book of spells, come to find out) sat heavily against her knees, her head landing somewhere on the armrest as if it were a pillow. She was twisting a strand of her hair around a finger when she heard a soft plink on the ground near her. She pulled her eyes from the dense words in front of her face to the floor and... a pine cone.
The immediate question formed in her mind was answered just as quickly by the boy sitting on the armchair next to her. She recognized him immediately as someone from class. The tall boy. What was his name? She eyed him for a brief moment, taking in the way his body was contorted to fit in his chair, then smiled and leaned off the couch slightly to grab the pinecone for him.
She tossed it gently, underhanded, giving him plenty of notice so that a catch wouldn't be too difficult. "Not at all," she responded. Then, because of course it did, her curiosity hit and she offered a question before her brain could think better of it. "What are you studying?" Because it didn't even occur to her that someone who was studying may not be thrilled about having said studying interrupted by a twelve THIRTEEN year old.
