New Friends? Closed

Arceus watched as yet another, she looked a little familiar, he might have seen her face before but they have never had a conversation, she asked if she was intruding, to which he replied with "No, no of course not, come join us" he grinned at the new girl who then introduced herself as Frost Cira, the name did sound a little familiar, she then greeted them brightly to which he responded to with a bright smile at her, "It's nice to meet you, yeah you're right I'm pretty sure we have met before but we never really talked".

He paused as Olympia introduced herself, and then watched as they both took their robes off and Arceus was surprised to see them wearing normal clothes, though if he was being honest it was a good idea since it wasn't very comfortable wearing a button up all day. The two girls chatted about where they had seen each other before, and he stayed silent listening to them talk a small grin on his face, they seemed fun to be around.

As they continued to talk he just looked to his left, the sun was just beginning to set and it was an astonishing view, the sun slowly fading behind the mountains and the light coming through the trees was being directly aimed towards the lake, as it hit the surface it bounced off it, the beautiful image was also visible if you looked at the lake, he kept staring at it, it was relaxing watching the colours both fading and blending together. Then he realised he had faded out too long and looked back up to the girls, "Curfew will be starting soon and I've got to go on patrols, so want to walk back to the castle together?" he asked with a smile.

Verla hummed to herself as her face changed and swung her bare legs over the dock and into the water and moved them around while she drew somehow in her sketch book and moving her head side to side, getting a different angle of it, she lifted it up and didn't notice that the could see it. She brought it down and began humming again, she felt like a five year old and her face blushed emmensly when she saw the prefect there, she didn't want to say anything, but she didn't actually know he was a prefect until he said something about it. She didn't judge him, he made his point, he was just like everyone else, but he just had a bigger responsibility. Verla looked at her socks and shoes next to her and sighed, she hoped shed find something to do here, it wasn't all that exciting when no one would talk to you. Then she noticed how wise the boy was, and cute, and he was the spitting image of who she wanted to marry when she was older. Then her eyes went wide when he looked at her and began to blush again, brighter this time and looked away.

Olympia looked at Frost, then back at Arceus. "Sure, that'd be great. Plus we'd all get more time to get to know each other. I mean, in this school it'd be a good idea." She didn't really know what she meant by that. Maybe she could start talking about the instruments she played? Or the books she loved to read back home. She didn't want to strike up a subject that the others wouldn't like, so she remained silent, waiting for someone to say something. Anything.

As she looked around, she saw another Hufflepuff had arrived. It was getting darker out, so Olympia couldn't see very well. Dusk had fallen on Hogwarts, but it wasn't quite pitch black yet. She could make out basic shapes, though. From what she could see, she was holding a book of some sort, and a pencil in the other hand. It must be a sketchbook, or some sort of journal, then.

As she got closer, she began to think that this girl looked familiar. She had wavy brown hair. Maybe she had one of those faces that everyone thinks they know you from, but it was different. Olympia had talked to so many different people in a short amount of time, she was completely forgetting who and where she talked to people. Or maybe it was the exhaustion from the first day setting in.

Arceus sat in the light breeze listening as Olympia talked, "Yeah I'd like to get to know all of you better" he gave everyone a smile as a silence fell around them, although it was awfully quiet it was relaxing in this silence, the faint sound of the waves lapping over the side of the lake really gave a nice ambiance.

He then noticed Olympia turn her head and as he turned his over to see what she was looking at he saw yet another girl close by. By the yellow crest on her robe he realised that she was also another Hufflepuff, he gave the new girl a slight wave, "Hey there" he said smiling at her, then turning around said "Well I really should get going" he lay on the ground letting the long grass brush against him, and let out a sigh "But it's really relaxing here. What do you think? Should I go and do my prefect duties?" he paused thinking.

"I do have until sundown so for now I'm sure it's fine, and the sunset is really beautiful at this time too it would be a shame to miss it" he turned around to see the girl was still standing there, then motioning with his hand he then told her to come over. "Do you want to join us?" he asked,"It's really nice over here" he smiled at her.

Olympia smiled at the girl, hoping she'd walk over. It'd be a shame to miss it," she added to no one in particular. She turned to Arceus as she sat down on the sand, wrapping her arms around her knees.

"As long as you can get to your duties on time if you watch the sunset. It'd be a shame to miss, but if you have something to do, I can find you later and describe it to you. If that isn't creepy.
I don't even know how many people I'm going to actually see that I talk to around. I hope to see everybody at least once more after today, but who knows. The school is huge." Olympia grinned.

Just as she turns her head towards the ocean, the sky is beginning to turn colors from the light blue that it was previously. She lays down, her eyes glued to the sky above her. The color changing is slow at first, but then progressively grows faster. It starts as a pinkish orange color, only on the horizon. Red streaks were splattered at random across the sky itself.

Olympia sighed with content. She was glad to be here, in the grass watching the sky, instead of in a bed sleeping.

When the prefect waved at her and invited her to walk with him, she blushed and walked over to him and said hi back. She nodded to his question to hang out with them back to the castle.

She was surprised to see a prefect talking to her, she never thought she'd get the honor. But of course, she was careful on what she said when he was around, not that she did anything wrong. But she just saw him as another human being, and so she was kind to him as she would any other person. It got to the point to where she forgot he was a prefect, she didn't care, he was kind enough to invite her into their conversation.

"I'm Verla." Verla said softly but loud enough so they could hear her, and in her kind voice that she was blessed with.

 Her bowtruckle Oliver poked his head out and smiled and waved at them both and said in his tiny high voice "hewwo!" he kind of had to yell for them to hear him. 

Verla giggled "and this is Oliver, I got him my first day here at Hogwarts, I saved him from being eaten by a big beetle."
