@Ariana
Well, Katie was almost coming out of her shell. she was looking up at the game that Ariana suggested, feeling her throat loosten ever so slightly as she pondered it. a riddle. she was a ravenclaw. riddles were one of her... THINGS. she figured it might be a cat, because they prowled in the grass and were startled (adorably) when snowflakes landed on their noses. of course, the idea of grass wasnt half bad eighter.

still, she was about to bring up her idea, hoping she would be calm enough to speak, when...

... another girl showed up. and boom. Katie was blushing and hiding again in her cloak. her face was buried in blue once again. more people, all staring at her. again the whole library shushed the boistrous hufflepuff girl, and again Katie wilted under the gaze of so many people. she liked the library because most people left alone a girl quietly reading. but now there were three virtual strangers speaking (LOUDLY TOO) near her, and katie found herself wildly uncomfortable.

would it be socially acceptable to run away?

she decided to screw it, and bolted

Ariana noticed the Ravenclaw disappear once more into her robes. ' well, darn' Ariana thought, before deciding that she was going to calm the girl down. " how about we play a different game? maybe... i spy? or is that too stressful?" Ariana asked smiling warmly. All Ariana wanted to do is make the girl feel better, even if she doesn't make a friend. " i'll start.. i spy with my little eyes... something that is huge, orangey-red and has lots of arms" Ariana smiled, describing a large animal within the grounds. she remembered the stories her brothers would tell of the animal when they were here. they would say; ' it was HUGE! and when it picked up little mickey, and tossed him in the air! Gosh, i was so scared he would fall, or die, or or' and then her other brother would cut in; ' it was soooo cool! we would tickle its arms and it would make this weird bubbling noise and then it would shoot us with a huge jet of water, soaking us and throwing us back at least a hundred feet! man, those hurt!' Ariana remembered those days well.

Guinevere was becoming very irritated. She was confused and just wanted to go back to studying. She gathered her things and said, to Ariana, "I just remember that I have to studying for herbology so..." She waved at everyone and got up to leave, heading away from the group. She brushed hair out of her face, thinking off the white birthmark across her left eye. Not long afterwards, passing students talking and working, she found a somewhat empty table and set her things down.

Immediately she felt a sense of relief, sitting down and rubbing her neck. Guinevere opened her book and began reading, but was distracted. Maybe she shouldn't have left, but it was getting to weird for her, and she didn't feel like fake being nice and trying to care about cry babies. Maybe that's why she got into Gryffindor instead of Ravenclaw, she was more brave than at least that girl. She knew everyonehad different personalities so maybe they weren't meant to be friends. So Guinevere just tried to forget about the whole ordeal, for now at least, and read about the plants and herns they talked about in the book that seemed to drone on and on forever.
