Celandine smiled happily when the older girl agreed with her. How awesome would it be to learn a forgotten hex just by breathing in the air of this room? Cela took a few slow, deep breaths while she imagined the awesomeness.

The frown and the tone the girl used went completely over Cela's head and she pursed her lips thoughtfully, "Well, he always thinks he's better at things than I am because he's Slytherin. He thinks he's sneakier." Cela giggled slightly, thinking about the opening feast, "He thinks he's smarter and that I don't know his secrets. Well I do know them; I just don't understand all of them. I mean... he's so angsty isn't he?" Cela shook her head, "But thats a Slytherin thing, I've noticed." Celandine conveniently forgot about the various students of other houses that had had some sort of angsty involvement with her brother last term.

"He is better at dueling than I am. And potion-brewing." Cela admitted, "He was supposed to show me some things this term." She pouted, "Though he did give me a few private lessons during the summer." She paused and added, "And potions too; he was going to help me with that though I'd much much rather have had Will show me things since he's just sooooo much nicer." Cela chattered away, offering a bright smile to the Slytherin girl.

"Hey... aren't you that girl that kissed Dominic?" Cela tipped her head, "That was really strange. Dominic didn't like that very much. He's my friend you know; I told him he was and even though I spilled water on him he doesn't seem to mind me all that much."
