Was it to much to ask for just a peaceful day at Hogwarts? How difficult is that? Of course it always seemed to be first years gathering into trouble. Maybe Aleksandra needed to mingle with a few older students in second or third year to have actual calm, sane conversations, but on the contrary she was stuck in a class full of unruly and well unmannered children. As if the waning days of Hogwarts could not get any less ‘thrilling’ as some may think of it. The platinum haired girl seemed rather annoyed; she just wanted to enjoy her fried tomatoes peacefully.

A soft feathery sigh escaped between Aleksandra’s lips in a soft wisp motion. Gray eyes looking annoyed at the duo that seemed to be around her. It always seemed to be Slytherins that seemed unruly and you would have thought a house full of ambition and resourcefulness would know at least a little thing about manners.

As the platinum blonde haired girl continued to gaze towards the boy that was sitting across from the young girl. It was clearly the unruly pancake thief ruffled the others feathers if one even had feathers. Of course to make this trio a bit more interesting a young girl ended up spooking the young boy in front of her.

At first glance Aleksandra seemed a bit nonchalant not noticing the similar features as the young girl took a sip of her tea. But after finishing her sip of tea the young girl gave a blank look forwards. Aleksandra examined the girl from their similar fair pale skin to the way the girls platinum blonde hair seemed to be similar shade and length and than you had there eyes while the others girls seemed more of a light blue array while Aleksandra’s eyes were more of a hint of gray blue than the light blue of the other girls. Aleksandra raised her left brow up quietly. Well this was a turn of events that went from a pancake thief to a case of ‘stolen’ identity or more so of a doppelganger Aleksandra has heard of doppelgangers and how it was more of someone who looked similar to you like a ghost of your past. Actually in reality a doppelganger who looked spookily like oneself some people used to think doppelgangers are a double walker like a shadow of oneself or even a ghost. Which made Aleksandra seem rather perplexed. The girl knew she looked similar to Draven’s deceased sister and now this young girl is standing in front of her looking eerily similar to her so is Aleksandra even a real person?

Aleksandra thought deeply to herself placing her chin atop of her hands staring the other ‘her’ down. How was it she never ran into this girl until now, but has she heard of her before? Have there been occasions of misinterpretation of people confusing her for someone? Aleksandra racked her brain at one point she thought maybe was it Astra who called her something else? If so the girl could barely remember all she knew was only one logical question. Aleksandra must be some type of ghost yep. The girl was definitely a ghost. She looked like a deceased sister of a second year student and now she looked like this girl. The logical reasoning for an eleven year old girl was that she was ‘dead’ actually knew maybe her father had another child she had no idea about? Nah, maybe her mother? Nah that was not it. Aleksandra scowled slightly and her brain started to hurt slightly. How on earth did this other girl look like her? Doppelganger was the only logical answer. But how on earth was that possibly were doppelgangers nothing but myths and legends? Apparently now with this look alike in front of her.

Aleksandra grew rather confused staring at the girl's longer gray eyes penetrating light blue ones. Though the girl must have looked intimidating to the other after all, Aleksandra was examining the other girl as if she was prey to another sacrifice of some sorts.

Being lost in her thoughts Aleksandra was not keen on the other two around her she was more focused on the other ‘her’ the one that seemed dare she say happy? How could one smile like that and be happy? Happy what exactly was that word anyway? The only thing close to happy Aleksandra gets is around Remedy and that was it.

“Starving? Look at them, their fancy clothes, well-tailored like that, and those snotty looks, probably just a pampered little pure blood who saw an opportunity to steal from a half-breed and took it,”

The remark from the boy in front of her brought Aleksandra’s attention towards him. He really had no idea when to take a break. It was like a game of cat and mouse with these two. All because of the other stealing pancakes. How petty is that?

Hearing the young boy antagonize the other Aleksandra continued leaning on the top of her hands eyeing everyone rather curiously. Before the girl spoke a peculiar voice seemed to beat her.

"Oh yeah?". "Prove that you deserved the pancakes. I challenge you to a pancake eating duel!”

Blinking in confusion Aleksandra glanced at the young student now pointing towards the other boy. Seriously a pancake eating duel? Aleksandra planted her face on the table with a loud resonating thump. Grumbling miserably to herself she knew that today would not be the best of days and of course to make matters worse now she will be witnessing idiots making a mockery of themselves. Can there not be one day! One day of sanity that was all Aleksandra begged. The young girl continued to leave her face on top of the table in misery. She really was sick of Hogwarts a whole year and she only had six more to go? Five maybe if she’s lucky the school year will fly by during second year. All the girl wanted was to be a Npc is that too much to ask? Surprisingly it must really be the girl grumbled incoherent curses under her breath as she seemed to be surrounded by morons.

The popular saying that every person has 7 doppelganger all around the world was something that Elisa never believed in, it just didnt seem possible to share the same face with someone else when there is no blood relation with them, it would be like defying the laws of nature but that was until this very moment Elisa who previously thought of this effect as myth stood infront of the other intimidating blonde girl, for some reason the girl just looked like her, the young blonde couldn't believe that she hadn't caught sight of this girl, neither in any of the classes nor at the Slytherin common room, it was as if this was all a dream, a particularly strange one and the girl was just some illusion created by her mind but it didn't take Elisa more than a minute or two to snap out of her mind which was slowly filling up with different thoughts. As Elisa slowly got her guard up, she noticed that she had been staring at the girl for too long, the young girl slowly said to the girl "Apologies for the intense staring, I understand if my actions have disturbed your meal.", the girl than slowly signalled Ernest to give her a bit space and sat down next to the boy,

As the young slytherin slowly regained her previous mood, she wanted approach Ernest for what he had previously said to the boy near him which she had overheard when she was trying to shuffle his hair, Elisa couldn't understand what had gotten into the part goblin but something about his words just didn't impress Elisa much, just because the other had stolen a stupid pancake didn't justify Ernest bringing up the matter of blood and fancy clothings, if that was the issue than she herself wasn't an ideal friend for him, afterall in the end she is a pureblood too, even though her parents were strict and sometimes even cold, she was pampered like some princess by her father too and her actions and pranks have been even worse compared to the other guy's action of stealing a silly pancake, Elisa slowly sighed as she took a bowl of porridge, the young girl just couldn't understand how to put her concerns out to the boy without offending him, afterall the last thing she would want is to ruin her friendship with one of the most important person to her, he had seen her in both her good and bad times,

After a while of thinking whether to share her feelings or not, Elisa finally decided to remain silent for the time being, she couldn't just ruin her or the table's morning just because of her overthinking mind..

Ernest let out a deep laugh at the other person's words. "A duel? That's just-" He couldn't imagine how he'd look, mouth stretched with pancakes just for some 'honor'. He shook his head,” As much as I want to fight for my honor by a duel, I do have plans for after breakfast that I need to not be suffering a stomach ache for.” He thought, maybe, this person wasn’t too bad. Though he didn’t think he’d be switching up her company to fit her into his friend group.

Aleksandra seemed to hate the other’s suggestion, even if her brow was raised by the comment on blood status. He knew that he and Cass’ conversation was a little childish, but after the year they have had, he felt he deserved to be a little immature. Hell, he wasn’t going to tarnish or hurt anyone by a pancake duel. “Maybe catch me at lunch and we can have a duel then, whatever is on the menu.” He wondered how Alekandra would react to that.

Elisa wasn’t as talkative as usual, making Ernest peek at her, concerned really. “You okay, Elisa?” He asked gently, moving his head closer to her so he could watch her expression more clearly. “Is something wrong, usually you’re telling me all about your morning. . .”

Blond girl no 1 did not look very happy with her peaceful breakfast being no longer peaceful. To say that Cass wasn't big on peace would be a lie, but they certainly were not a big fan of quiet. Their idea of peace was fluid and in motion, like running through the woods laughing with someone you love to get home in time for dinner kind of peace. Sitting and staring at the stars, all alone with their thoughts was not their preferred kind of peace. "Alone" and "with their thoughts" were two activities Cass refused to partake in. If they had their way, they were never going to stop running.

Thankfully, pancake boy seemed down for a speed eating duel. They would probably still be full from all the pancakes by the time that lunch rolled around, but they refused to let that stop them. If they had to suffer a stomach ache later then so be it, they would gladly pay the price to make pancake boy have a bit of fun. "Its on" they said, sitting down again. Tipping a piece of toast onto their plate even though they were very far from hungry now, they opened their mouth to speak once again. Then they shut it and disguised it by taking a bite out of their toast when they saw pancake boy turn towards the other girl, who was being very polite.

Manners were something Cass was perfectly capable of using, but simply didn't choose to often. Just another set of rules there to be followed when necessary, and completely disregarded when not.
