She wore a grey tee shirt with lace sleeves, and dark faded skinny jeans. The dull colors made her bright, BRIGHT red hair stand out even more.

Dashing back down from the dorms, after taking a few moments THERE as well, she returned with two sheets of parchment, a quill, and a ferret perched on her shoulder. The small animal was black and white, with a tiny black mask and black paws. As Kana claimed a place in one of the armchairs, the ferret climbed down. She reached out a hand and caught the mischevious animal.

"You just stay here a minute. You'll have plenty of time to explore."

The ferret gave a few impatient trills, but obediently stayed near her owner. Leaning forward, Kana placed the sheets of parchment on the table and began to write a letter home, letting her parents know that she had arrived safely, and that mom had won the bet.
Noel walked into the Ravenclaw common room, wide-eyed as he stared around the circular chamber and tried to absorb everything around him. It was brilliant!

Lowering his eyes from the cieling, he spotted a familiar head of red hair bending over some parchment. Grinning he bounded over to Kana, interrupting her letter without so much as a "sorry". He was waaaay too excited to see her.

"Kana! You're here! We're both in Ravenclaw! This is brilliant! I've missed you! How was the rest of your summer? And oooh Kit's here! Hey Kit remember me?" he asked the ferret, holding out a hand for the little white thing to smell and perhaps decide to wander up.

That's when he heard another voice.

If anyone looked at her, you'd guess she just fought with her Monster book for CoMC. She yawned and moved forward for the closest couch her eyes caught. "Aaaaaah.. home sweet home." She half-sang half-sighed and threw herself on it, sending her robes on the floor.

How cool was it to be as messy and slobbish as you wanted without a ranting aunt over your head? Exactly! She forgot about her promise to keep her things tidy for the house-elves, specially that her oath was triggered by a book… long time ago, say like two months ago. And a busy girl like her wouldn't remember such silly stuff.

Smiling at the feeling of the cushions against her back and …ahem..chair-area(!), she opened her eyelids slightly and watched the cozy room. It wasn't that cold yet for the fireplace to be on but the sight of it made her feel warm and just want to snuggle. The warm colors, the enchanted ceiling, the view of the sky, the white ferret….
…What?

She straightened herself quickly and looked at the little thing on the floor. "Aaaaaaaaaah!" Screaming as loud as her tired self managed, "A rat's in here!!" She exclaimed moving her feet up to the couch and hugging them tightly. Someone should use some kind of a trick to get this thing out.. QUICKLY!

…Wait.. she's a witch! She can use her wand now only.. where is it? She looked around frantically but nothing. She fell silent and had her both eyes on the little thing just in case it decided to roam around the room and ATTACK her with its claws... who knew where does it hide them?
"It's not a rat, it's a ferret!" Noel protested indignantly. That's when he saw the wand in the girl's hand. "Oooh no, put that away, don't hurt her! She's a pet! Don't you dare try and curse her!" he told her. She looked older than him, which meant she could do some serious damage to Kit with that wand. And he didn't want that to happen.

Neither would Kana, he guessed.

But seriously, how could anyone mistake Kit for a rat?!
