This list stuff--now this was something else altogether.
Somewhere in the back of her mind, she thought she heard someone calling her name. She pulled herself out of her thoughts and turned to the person on her side--Evelyn, who was asking for...something. "Hmm?" she asked. Then a second later, she realized her friend had asked for a quill. "Oh, yeah, sure." She fished in her bag and pulled out a spare quill, passing it over to Evelyn.
Hurry up and get something on your parchment, Evelyn! That way I can copy what you've got!
In all seriousness, though, Sierra just needed to put a lot of focus into thinking about her father. He was the family member she was closest to, after all.
Mwahaha!
"Thank you." she smiled, taking the quill and giving a good once over. Seemed ordinary to her, and she hadn't dropped down dead or anything so it wasn't poisoned. Not like Sierra would do that, HA! Just...just being cautious.
Writing the first few words at the top of a new page in her...Ancient Runes notebook, ugh, the Slytherin girl paused for a moment before flipping the page and writing the same thing down before creating the lines and whatnot- OMG! The quill just turned BLUE!
...
Giggle.
It turned bluuueee. That was so awesome. Before she could get distracted anymore what the color changing quill, Evelyn quickly stared jotting random things down in the columns as they appeared in her mind. The trouble was though, she was trying not to get angry as she wrote them down.
And just through all of those words had the quill turned to yellow, red, green, orange, and purple. OMG! Sierrraaaa...where did ya get the quill hmmm? 'Cause the younger Slytherin girl may have to go buy another one. Evelyn was too attached to this one now.
