| Captain was glad to see so little people in the hall. Her intention of coming into the hall had been to find a quiet place to read. The other night she had sent her father a letter with another few pictures of herself at Hogwarts and the fudge she had purchased from Hogsmeade. Captain didn't quite understand why he asked for so many pictures of her, but she didn't question. He had surprised her with a quick response, despite the time of the month. The letter had it's normal warnings, normal praises for good scores and grades, and well wishing. However, he had included, why Captain did't know, a book for her to read. Captain, now sitting at the Ravenclaw table, pulled the book out now. It was on advanced defence against the dark arts. It wouldn't have been hard for her father to procure this for her, being in his line of work. Pouring a cup of tea, the girl opened the book and started on the first chapter, quickly engrossed. | |

| Trix strode in briskly running a hand through her messy hair. She'd decided to grab a bite to eat before an early morning run around the grounds. The earlier she finished it off, the better. Her Great Aunt didn't approve of young ladies exposing too much leg in public and who knew what spies were lurking around. As though on autopilot, she made for the table from yesterday but stopped herself short, this time seeing the familiar blonde head she had failed to notice yesterday. It was buried behind another book...thicker than yesterday's. She gave a soft snort. Ah Bookworm. | |

| Captain lightly mouthed the words as she read. How interesting. The first chapter was on defence against hexes. It named a few and went into detail about how to avoid and counter act different hexes. Captain was barely aware of the other persons presense. She heard the footsteps but barely even glances in the other persons direction before returning to reading. | |

| It appeared the little nerd was in her own little world...Trix could hardly see where her nose ended and the pages began. Perhaps she was asleep? With that thick a book, who wouldn’t be she scoffed mentally. Suddenly an idea began to form. She grinned evilly. Treading softly she advanced towards the unsuspecting Claw, grabbing a handful of nearby lemon tarts on the way. This would wake her up…
Then suddenly, many things happened at once. She glanced down, saw a House Elf ogling her ankle and attempted to kick out at it. Bad idea. She lost her balance and ended up falling onto the Claw smushing lemon tart all over both of them.

| Captain let out a high squeak at being taken by surprise. She had no idea what had or was happening. All at once a person was squishing her to the table. Something sticky was also squished on her. Captain struggled vainly to get out from whoever it was, though her frist thought was to push away her book before it could get damaged. | |

| Trix clambered back horrified and checked herself for any injuries. A nasty bruise was forming on her wrist but besides that she was fine. She let out a relieved sigh before searching angrily for the offending creature. Only to see it skidding out of sight around the corner and into an adjoining room. Well at least some good had come of it. "Bookworm, you're looking positively delicious today..Sugar." She noticed the Claw trying to salvage her book and her smirk grew. "Isn't it a delightful morning?"
ooc morning again? :p | |

| Lemon tart? Captain stared at the pastry on her arms. She blushed a bit and gave a hopeless look to the Slytherin girl she know recognized. Trixie Black. That was her name. The Ravenclaw only stared, blinking a few times but saying anything.
ooc:appearantly | |

| Trix rolled her eyes at Captain who resembled a stunned scarlet squid at the moment with her staring and blinking. With a wave of her wand she scourgified away the lemon tart on herself ..and her unmoving companion and grinned. "Not going to answer my question? No matter, my mood has been brightened by the sight of you." Tossing her hair she grabbed two fresh lemon tarts and held one out to Captain. "For you my Sweet Lady," she finished with an elaborate mocking bow. | |

| Captain only noded, staying silent as the Slytherin girl cleaned them both. She had no idea why or what this was about. Captan was hesitant when a lemon tart was offered, for obvious reasons. Deciding she'd rather eat it than wear it though, Captain gingerly took the pastry. A light blush dusted her fatures at the name the Black girl had called her. | |

| It appears my cousins were right, those in other houses really are quite passive beings.
Trix eyed the window noting the sun emerging. She had to finish her run. Turning back and seeing the poor girl blushing pulled at something in her. Maybe she'd been a little too cruel, no thanks to the Elf. Perhaps i can make it up to her... ..besides.. being a Half Blood, she doubted Captain would report back on her 'indecency' to her Great Aunt or cousins. "I must be off for my morning run, would you care to join me?" She tried to sound as nonchalant as possible.
ooc wait i forgot..did you ever say you were a Half Blood? i remember you weren't Pureblood. ahh sorry :p | |

| Captain wasn't sure about the offer. She was far from athletic, though she enjoyed Quidditch very much. She wasn't much for running, but she didn't want to be rude and she would like to figure out more about this girl. She sat, simply thinking for a moment. "I...suppose..." It would pay off more to be on the good side. Even if she had go running. | |

Trixie clapped her hands not knowing whether she was happy or disappointed about Captain's assent. Shaking her head she smiled. "What route would you prefer to take? I haven't really familiarised myself with the entire school layout..perhaps you have some idea?..being a Wise Claw and all that?" | |

| Captain blinked a few times, thinking. Yes, she knew the majority of the castle. Even a few secret passageways. However, she did not know a good running route. "I really don't know a good route..." | |

| Pumpkin stumbled sleepily into the great tripping over her robes a couple of times. She glared and growled at the first years that were in her way and mumbles incoherent things. She squinted and blearily scanned the hall. |
