"I-I was only w-walking."

[Miranda_]

"Did you not hear me? Get. Lost. I don't want to waste time talking to the likes of you. You can't be in Ravenclaw, what with being so stupid."

[Sarah_K_O_M]

"You're perfect for Slytherin though, because you're so rude." Iris stormed away from him.

[Miranda_]

Draven rolled his eyes. He couldn't care less what this girl thought; he figured he had enough to deal with this term. First with the unwanted prefect position; he figured that some of the Slytherins might resent him cuz they wanted it. He'd gladly hand it over, but he wasn't allowed to. Then there was his cousin Nashira, who was starting her first term at Hogwarts. His aunt had asked him to look after her, which made him scowl at the thought. Draven didn't exactly dislike Nashira; he just found her extremely annoying.

Iris waited until she'd paid before she started to cry. She hated being disliked by anyone and had an incredibly thin skin.

One student was tapping her foot impatiently as she waited for someone to move out of the way of the bookshelf that the Divination books were on. Her short, slightly odd green hair was half hidden under a Muggle baseball cap - it had the picture of an odd pirate on it - and she looked horribly bored. She picked up her bag as it fell off her shoulder again, and she pulled a now-broken mirror out of it. "... not again..." She sighed, and stuffed it back in, stepping forward to get a book off the shelf. She walked over to behind Iris, her jeans and bright gray shirt that had a large, red W on the front making her stand out just a little oddly, and she took a step forward, waiting for Iris to move away. She put a few books on the counter, and yawned a little. I hate jet lag. She noticed Iris was crying and nudged her, handing her a tissue; Leela had them with her at all times due to allergy problems. "Here."

[Miranda_]

Nashira came into the shop, clutching a cat carrier. Her mother was looking out a book for herself, having gotten Nashira's book list earlier. Nashira's mother had been beset by a fear that the books would sell out, so she'd gotten them first thing. Nashira wanted to take her cat out, but reluctantly decided not to; she didn't want the cat to get lost.

She saw her cousin reading in the Dark Arts section of the bookstore, as well as a girl who was crying in a corner.

[Sarah_K_O_M]

"Oh, um, thanks." Iris sniffled.

[Silent_Wolf]

"No problem." Leela smiled. "Bookstores cause sniffles sometimes, especially in the tragedy section." She was clearly joking.

[Miranda_]

Nashira came bouncing over. This was the attitude that annoyed Draven immensely. "What's the matter?" she asked inquisitively.
