Finished You cold? Nah.

IC Date: February 20th, 2025

XXXThe weather at Hogwarts could always be described as a little unpredictable. It must be the influence of magic, or perhaps the weather was angry at the ceiling of the Great Hall for imitating it. Either way, on this nice, breezy day, Eonaria was suspicious. Of course, as it began warming up again, she could go outside without her cloak, which was always nice.

XXXShe stood at one of the many entrances into the paths of Hogwarts, inspecting the sky. It was rather cloudy... and humid... But standing around stalling wouldn't do her much good. A good day was a good day, and Eonaria was going to use it! She stepped out from the cover of the... whatever type of structure that was called. The terrace? Roof? Overhang? Something like that. Maybe I should do a dive into architecture over the summer. Eonaria headed for the lake, smiling slightly at the memories. This lake could be quite troublesome at times. There were also other students milling around enjoying the pleasant weather.

XXXUnfortunately, the moment her mind made that observation, the sun went behind a cloud, causing the grounds to darken and the breeze to pick up. Eonaria facepalmed as the rain began to pour, soaking her robes.

XXX"Wow," she commented, looking around. "This is great." Sarcastically, of course. I think the weather has a vendetta against me. For what?? She turned around, intending to head back to the safety of her rain-free common room, only to see a Hufflepuff girl spinning in circles with her head tilted back. Eonaria stared for a moment, looking between the castle and the girl. What...?

XXXThe rain was steadily soaking into her hair, which did feel kind of good, but the pleasure was extremely short-lived. It was getting chilly, with the breeze blowing over soaked clothes. The Hufflepuff broke her trance-like state and proceeded to leap in a puddle, sending muddy water splashing outwards. Eonaria grimaced slightly. Do people.. actually do this? The sad part was that she used to love messing around in the mud as a child.

XXXShe approached the girl, a bit concerned. "Um, hey... aren't you cold?" No doubt my hair will be all over the place after this. She tried to blink away some of the raindrops that decided to land way too close to her eyes.

XXXThe odd girl looked at her, shrugging off her concern. "All the time?" Eonaria echoed. "Are-" Then, without warning, the Hufflepuff grabbed her by the hand and dragged her across the grounds. She yelped, stumbling after her. "Ack, wait! Where are you taking me??" Back inside? Her mind supplied hopefully. The girl's grin was suspicious. When they finally stopped, Eonaria looked around. To be honest, her wrists were beginning to hurt, but ack, why am I so fragile-

XXXThe girl apologized, explaining that she looked like one of her friends. "Oh. I do?" Eonaria furrowed her brows, glancing down at herself subconsciously. She was a bit bewildered by the basically-abduction that just occurred. "Um, that's okay, I guess. But really, what are you doing out here?" The Hufflepuff introduced herself as Emiline, a second year. Eonaria smiled slightly, taking her hand back. "Right, I'm a first year. There are a lot of people at Hogwarts."

XXXShe paused before realizing she should probably also introduce herself. "My name is Eonaria Kabukimono," she added, falling back into the familiar words she had probably practiced at least 50 times in front of the mirror at home. Emiline almost seemed to drift back off, probably enjoying the rain. Eonaria grimaced, feeling the cold droplets hit her arms. Well, now I know to bring my cloak absolutely everywhere.

XXXHave you ever seen a body of water getting rained on? The lake caught her eye, the surface churning with every tiny hit of a raindrop. It looked a bit alarming.

XXXBy her side, Emiline looked up, so Eonaria did as well, turning her attention away from the lake. It was a bit creepy, to be honest. The rain seemed to be pattering down a little slower, which Eonaria was thankful for. She was already shivering, her robes damp but not all the way soaked. That was... a fast bout of rain. A raindrop hit her in the face. O... kay. Eonaria brushed it away with a frown. That was unnecessary.

XXXShe nodded quickly as Emiline offered to help dry their clothes off once they reached Hogwarts, pointing towards the castle. "Wow, which spell would that be?" Eonaria asked curiously. The amazing Clothes-Drying spell? Certified to not make clothes shrink? Now that she thought about it, she could learn a lot from upperclassmen. Not that she would actually use the spell before officially learning it in class, but it would be fascinating to know. As they headed back to the castle, Eonaria glanced up at the sky.

XXXThe rain was indeed lightening up, along with the sky. The clouds seemed less gloomy, drifting away as if to say 'ha ha, we rained on you, have fun with that, byeeee!' She scowled at it. The weather was just mean. It would probably start raining again later that evening, too. I prefer watching storm clouds via the Great Hall's ceiling, thank you very much. The rain brought scents like weathered stone and damp soil, which wasn't a bad combination at all.

XXXEonaria listened excitedly, nodding every so often. Astronomy!! Astronomy was her very favorite class! Or was it Herbology? Maybe they were tied for first place. It sounded like an extremely useful spell in certain situations, just like the one they were in right now.

XXXEonaria repeated the incantation in her mind, committing it to memory, but she didn't quite catch the wand movement. It was... something. Wow, so obvious. Of course it was something, her brain snarked. "Thank you!" she said instead, looking down at her robes in awe as they began to dry out. Then they stood in silence for a moment. I'd prefer it to work faster, but... still functional and cool! Emiline repeated the spell for herself.

XXXEonaria glanced back at the sky. Personally, she was not saddened to see the rain go. She was already imagining the mud that was left behind from the quick rainstorm. The blades of grass rustled gently, still peppered with rain droplets. "It's alright," Eonaria said, waving her hand dismissively. Everything had been fixed in the end, after all. "I mean, I wouldn't really want to go do it again, but it's fine. You don't need to apologize." She offered the Hufflepuff a small smile. While the behavior had seemed quite strange at first, Eonaria understood liking something specific that just... gave you a refreshing, joyous feeling. Even if it was weird.

XXX"It's not that bad. I mean, I like lying down on floors," she commented. Wait. I probably shouldn't have said that. Taking rain showers isn't all that strange, but lying down on floors... can I take that back? "Ahem," Eonaria coughed, trying to brush past that. "So... I guess this is goodbye, then? See you later, sometime?" She tilted her head.
