A little stroll
Reducio
Claire was bored, it was so...frequent. Yes, she so frequently gets bored. What should she do? She was in the mood to get some fresh air.... so why not?
Claire set off from Hufflepuff Common Room to the Courtyard. She passed several people; a bunch of giggling girls (claire found those weird), a professor, some people having a stroll,like her.
Finally, she reached the place. Claire didn't know why, but she was quite fond of the place, it was so good! She sat on the floor and stared at the fountain. Everything was nice. Wait - what if she drew this fountain! Yes, she had finally found something new to draw! She's so fond of drawing...
Quickly, she went to her dormitory and brought her Drawing board, quill, and ink...
She sat down and started staring at the fountain - again. After almost 2 minutes of staring, she started to draw. Ah - this was such a good location to draw.
...
She looked at what she had drawn so far, it was.... not too good, but not too bad either. She tore the thing and started drawing... again.This one was turning out good... good... ah! She made a mistake. She started drawing all over again

A little stroll
Reducio
Outfit- Short red shirt, with jeans and brown shoes
Extressia was trying to catch fresh air, after a lesson gone great but exhausting, she just wanted to relax in the somewhat serenity of the Courtyard. To be honest, not her favorite place, it would probably be the empty Classroom. There were too many people, while in Classroom, while there were still people, there were definitely fewer. But today she needed outdoor air, so walking slowly at the bumpy and dirty grayish brick floor, trying to think of the best way to talk to her mother when Extressia meet her again and how to convince her to give the wizarding world a second chance, her eyes move along toward a board, instantly stopping to spot a girl drawing.@Claire Spennikins
Looking up to where she was looking, it was clear she was drawing the center fountain or the only fountain in the Courtyard. The drawing was looking pretty good, though it was clear that this was second try, as there was a crumple of paper next to the girl. She wondered if she should let the stranger to her own business, but wanted to say something about her painting. So quietly approaching, she tapped the girl's shoulder and with a small smile, she said:
"That a nice drawing there, you are an artist? I'm Extressia."

Mentioning: @Claire Spennikins
"Oh."
Extressia responded bluntly with a surprise and hints of neutrality, the truth was she never really considered her name would be difficult to pronounce, then again she haven't met many people in her life, and was probably lucky enough to have gone on in life without someone saying that. Feeling a little panic over the comment but looking for conversation, she turned that nervousness into a curiosity over something that should be a good solution, but new to Extressia, it was a potential nickname.
The last comment was in a sort of awkward and sincere tone, Extressia sat down sitting applesauce next to the new acquaintance, to where the piece of paper was, with uncertainty over what to do with the little piece of paper, she put it to sit on her lap though a little awkward to do. Giving a small shy smile, she looks at Claire with expectant eyes."Nice to meet you Claire, and don't give that self-decapitation to yourself, I think it is good and it is clear you are at least passionate about the drawing, and I didn't know you think my name is so difficult to say, I don't have a nickname for you since the topic never came up before, maybe you can give me one?
