SPOILER!!: Presley
That hadn't been what Hannah had said a moment ago. She'd said "as if muggles were worthy enough to know about us" not "unless they are married to a wizard, in which case thier standing is higher." Presley found herself growing angrier and angrier at the silly little child. "It's no difference at all." She snapped. "As if your worthiness can change based on who you fall in love with?" Presley for one, had no doubts that her parents had loved each other deeply, which was more than most children could say.
Presley listened carefully to Hannah's next words, and her voice got soft, and dangerous. "Didn't your parents ever teach you to know your audience and to choose your words carefully?" She asked glowering. As in, never bring up pureblood supremist ideals with a muggleborn for instance? Or never inadvertantly insult a noble's parentage? This Lockwood girl was certainly uncultured, and not worth Presley's time. Presley shook her head. "People without manners are hardly worth the time I've already wasted on you." She said snottily.
Presley turned back to Elliot. "Elliot, it was nice to see you again. I hope we can speak again soon?" She said politely, reminding the Morganzo that the two of them had important things to talk about. She bowed her head slightly, as the proper parting for a peer of your same social standing, picked up her bag and the package delivered by the owl, and stalked back toward the castle. Her father was going to get a huge letter tonight. Though Presley had not much hope of him writing her back, at least he would be proud of how she'd handled the situation with that....ridiculous girl.
SPOILER!!: Elliot
Elliot, still quite amused lazily waved her hand at Hannah. "Hannah, it's all right. Both of you, this is neither the time, nor the place," she said with a roll of her eyes. Honestly, people loved arguing around here. Elliot couldn't stand it. She felt it to be a bit...well, unnecessary, since she was always right.
She did nod at Hannah, though. No, Elliot wasn't mad at Hannah.She liked the younger girl. Hannah reminded Elliot of herself a lot...
"Most pureblood noble housewives are alike. Mine is...not as refined as you would think. Her family is a blotch on my family tree...but I'm not talking about it.." she said with what sounded like a very fake cough. Change of subject, please.
Elliot loved watcher other people argue. It was always fun. Elliot wouldn't take sides...unless the argument got worse. Presley would probably expect Elliot to take hers, since Elliot had been friends with her longer. Who knew, though. Elliot liked to...play by ear.
Hannah couldn't help but to laugh at loud. She doesn't care if this girl likes her or not or even if she had hurt her feelings.
"I'm not taking back anything that I said. I don't think I need to elaborate eveything that I say to make sure that I cover every possible reasoning." I mean sure there were always exceptions in every aspect of life. She did think that being married to a muggle (disgraceful of course) was different that just walking up to a muggle on the street and telling him about wizards. She wasn't trying to save face because she didn't care.
"My parents taught me to stand up for what I believe in. Not everybody is going to agree with everyone else, but I refuse to be two-faced. I am who I am with everybody. I'm not going to adapt to anybody." That was for sure. "Hannah was Hannah and that was that. She wasn't going to be super bubbly and sweet because Mary-Sue was super bubbly and sweet.
"By all means don't waste your time. I won't lose any sleep over it." Jeeze this girl needed tougher skin. She would never make it. Get over it. You won't win every time.
Hannah spent more than enough time on this girl. She wasn't even worth it, but she would get the last word. That's how it always was with her. Good thing to cause the Presley girl had walked back to the castle. Good riddance.
She turned back to Elliot.
"You're right. I don't have time for foolish people. I should never have wasted my time with the likes of her." She knew that this fight put Elliot in a tight spot. She wouldn't hold it against her though she couldn't help it that Presley's mother is a muggle either. Hannah wasn't going to be childish and even expect her to choose sides because she wouldn't want to ever have to do that herself. Oh well she would just roll with it and see how it goes.
"Well that was fun." She said with a smile.
