Or even the tiniest hint of acknowledgement that she regretted sitting on the lioness?

hmph. People these days.

The thirteen year old scowled in frustration. "HEYY. PERSON. You. The one who sat on me." Flail. Yes, YOU. What do you think I'm talking to, the bookshelves? "You KNOW you sat on me, right? 'Cause you did. Just, y'know, for your information." And Alice expected a full apology. "You can't just sit on the queen of the world and not acknowledge it. That's not very respectful. OR COOL. It's definitely NAWT cool." MHM. Learn yo' manners, guuuurl. The Queen needs to be treated like a.. A QUEEN. Duh.
The fourth year went on reading the first chapter of the book she had brought with her, and then began to take notes. Gwendolyn started writing a few words on the nearly empty piece of parchment, with an almost illegible handwriting, though very orderly. Hmm. Gwen placed the quill down for a moment to examine her work before flipping the page of the book in order to carry on with her study.

Scribble. Scribble. Scribble.

And yes. She was going to ignore the girl. ‘Well…’, she said as she raised her eyes from the book in order to look back at the younger student. ‘…I came here to study’ Therefore- don’t bother me. ‘… and it appears me that you are here to sleep. Whilst this is the Arithmancy study laboratory’, Gwen said, accentuating the word ‘study’, ‘… there is no wonder why I wouldn’t expect to find someone sleeping. Therefore, it isn’t my fault’ It was totally the girl’s fault for hibernating on that chair. It was definitely her fault for sleeping here, and I doubt she was meditating about essence cycles, Gwen thought and tried hard not to roll her eyes.

Pft. Please.

Gwendolyn was about to return to her book when she heard the girl say something. Hey person? What now? Against her will, the fourth year drew her attention back to the other girl. ‘It was an honest mistake’, the Ravenclaw said curtly. And I am ready to accept your apology, she wanted to say, but managed to control herself. ‘But it wasn’t’ PAUSE ‘…entirely my fault’ Fine. She almost said it. There was no way she was going to apologize... Though… maybe that would be a better idea, the Ravenclaw told herself. ‘I umm…’, she started talking, but she heard the girl call herself the queen of the world. This- is not worth any apology, the fourth year thought.

Hmmm.

What could be worse? Leaving it like this and listening to the girl go on and on about it, or apologizing and minding her own business? Since Gwen wasn’t willing to listen to this girl anymore, she made an effort and said an ‘I’m sorry’.

Happy now?

This would mean she could carry on reading without having to listen to the endless story of ‘the queen’? Hopefully. As soon as she got to the page where the second chapter started, Gwen decided to leave the reading part aside, and start calculating.
