Speech -- Thoughts
The Great Lake looked dreadfully inviting.
Had Pam ever told anyone she loved the cold? Yes you have, this is getting repetitive. She shook her head at her own thoughts, her internal monologue during winter was always confessing it's undying love for the season. Her friends were probably already sick of her. Welp, it was not her fault. If anything, it was winter's fault for being too pretty.
Today though, she was out with a purpose which was not aweing over the greenery (was whitery a thing? She would have to search it up). She finished securing her shoes and sat up, glancing around. She had chosen her time we'll. The place was mostly empty, which suited her perfectly. Ice skating was a sort of guilty pleasure for her; she wasn't sure why, but she had never told anyone that she liked it.
The brainwave had been her father's. And she was glad for it, for the frozen Great Lake was, by far, the best skating rink she had come across (well, it wasn't technically a rink, right?) Pam inhaled and pushed herself off the snow, slipping on the ice and nearly falling over. No, no— She stood up straight, ears burning in embarrassment. That was the main reason she was glad it was empty. She hoped no-one had seen her flap her hands like a penguin.
She looked around at the others also skating on the ice. Some of them seemed experienced while some were clearly newbies (hint: wobbly legs). Her eyes scanned some of the older students, feeling impressed. Well, she'd be as proficient as them one day!

Speech -- Thoughts
Pam's nose had probably started to freeze. It definitely didn't stop her from skating across the Lake as fast as she could though. If anything, she loved the feeling of the wind on her face.
Pam was glad that the Great Lake had frozen enough to allow skating on it. When they had figured out that she was going to Hogwarts, her father had pulled her out of the ice skating coaching centre where she had been learning for the past two and a half years, and she had been pretty upset about it. She had wanted to become as good as a professional. Like literally, she had seen seniors in the centre practically run across the ice on their skates like it was a normal road and she wanted to be THAT good. Maybe I can ask one of the older students here to teach me. At that thought, Pam swept her eyes over the people, trying to find someone who could teach her, Perhaps I can come again when there are more people.
Pam stopped abruptly on her tracks as her eyes fell on a black haired girl, maybe a year older to her, sitting on the ice, a desolate expression on her face.
"Huh. She probably fell." Pam muttered. She remembered her first day on the ice, she had ended up with a number of bruises on her hands and legs. Not her most favourite of memories. Making up her mind, she moved over to her, "Hey, are you alright? Do you need help?" She asked, holding out a hand for the girl.

Pam giggled as the girl thanked her, clearly embarrassed as she rubbed her neck. She started to say that she had been equally bad, when the girl's hair changed into a brilliant violet-ish red, making Pam totally forget what she had been saying and her mouth falling open in awe, "Omg, that's so cool! Are you a metamorphmagus?"
Pam smiled at the girl, watching as she stood up properly and did some slow laps around the ice near her. She was a novice, Pam could tell that by her wobbly legs, but she could also tell that this was not her first time on the ice. A person could not skate even a little on their first day, unless they had a genetic talent for ice skating (or so her Coach had said). Pam would be extremely jealous if that was the case with this girl.
The girl stopped close to her, and introduced herself. "Nice to meet you, Tracey. I'm Pam." She glanced down at her skates as the girl's legs wobbled a little. Her instincts shouted at her to reach out and steady her, but Pam was not the type to touch someone without their permission. Besides, even if she had less skating skills, Tracey was ten times better at steadying herself than Pam had been when she had started out. She probably didn't even need her help. She said softly, "Sure, I'll join you!"

Pam's eyes widened in surprise as the girl confirmed her suspicions, "Oh my god, that's so cool! Do you really change your hair colour that often?" Pam would kill to have that kind of ability. Her father would probably have a fit though if he found her changing her hair every week. She had always liked the idea of having different colors and styles of hair. But she had learnt that coloring one's hair too often was harmful. And she loved her hair way too much to put it through any kind of torture.
Well that is what it was in the muggle world atleast. Maybe there was something in the Magical world which would make it not harmful? She'd love it if that were true. And there would be nothing stopping her then.
"We can start now." She agreed, watching Tracey skate away from her, slowly and carefully. Pam smiled lightly at the sight, That's gives me deja vu. She liked the girl. She was friendly, and not as scary as some of the other older students she had seen. She moved over to join her, catching up to her easily, "Would you like some help?" She asked, "Have you skated before?"

Pam laughed at that. "I have a feeling I'd end up changing it every day if I ended up with the same power. I've always wanted to color my hair." She watched her keep skating, trying to keep her legs from moving out of control and Pam took a while to glance around at the others skating there, before turning her attention back to the girl before her.
She's going at a good speed though, Pam mused, She would smack into someone if she had been going any faster. Probably. The number of times that had happened with her, Pam had lost count.
She pouted, feeling rather restless. Isn't this too slow? I wanna do some spins and fall on my butt. Pam shook her head at herself, No you don't. You're gonna be nice and stay with her. Being petty was not something she often was, but she had her moments. And she was definitely being petty at the moment, because she couldn't even properly do spins.
She suddenly remembered what Tracey told her a few minutes ago and asked out of curiosity, "Were you raised in a muggle setting? Does that mean you're a muggleborn?" Pam wasn't exactly sure how many muggleborns she had met. One of her closer friends was a Muggleborn, but other than that? She wasn't really sure.
