What did she do? Hm, what DID she do...? That Healer is always yelling at someone for something. "I was going to help Ronnie get rid of her headache with a potion, aaaaand her Evil Highness didn't like that appparently. I advise you NEVER get sick while you're here. I managed to avoid any contact with her for the last couple years, but I guess that record just broke."
"Did you know there's a playground here? They just built it last year!" And Ameliah rode the HECK outta that Welsh Green spring ride, and was looking forward to Welshie again. He was her FRIEND.
Oooo she could tell that this one was nice, how? Because she beamed back, that's how!
Lex was definitely shocked to hear that the Healer had punished someone for trying to help.
"But that doesn't make any sense!! Why would she punish you for something like that? Aren't they the ones telling the older kids to help the others?" Not that she wanted any of the older kids to help. Nope. They could just stay away from her because she didn't trust any of them! They were waving wands like they knew it all but who knew, the spell could go wrong then she'd be maimed!!
Her eyes went wide in wonder and amazement when she heard that there was now a playground.
"Wooooow! And is everyone allowed on it...or just stupid older kids?" Because really they wouldn't have had much use for it except an extra place to go kissing; yuck.

Lex wasn't one to intrude on he conversations of others....okay maybe she was but she didn't make a habit of it. This however was a case where exceptions could be made! Why? Because they were talking about spells! But then...they were talking about drains and clogging...?
"Um..what are you guys talking about...?" She questioned.

"Can't fix... won't fix. Trust me... you don't want to let people point a wand at you without supervision." And even still... it had to be the right KIND of supervision. "If it doesn't feel any better tomorrow, you better go to the Healer. And I want that tie back."
Lex looked over at the girl with a lot of uncertainty as she told her
not to panic. It got even more concentrated with uncertainty when Vivi pulled off her tie. She would have asked what she was going to do with it but then she saw.... O____O
She winced a bit when she got her hand throw the thing and rested it there. Hmm...well this would just have to do. Anything was better than going to the Healer...especially after what she just witnessed!
So that was it! She
didn't want to fix it! Hmph, fine, then it wouldn't get fix. The look on her face should have made it clear that she agreed with her 100% when it came to having people point wands at her; she didn't trust the lot of them.
"I know...that's why I came looking for you...because you're smarter than them...but fine this should do and it will be ten times better by tomorrow so you can have your tie back then!" She said with a smile and a nod. Lex would try to convince herself that she was fine because this was all mind over matter.
Then she suddenly remembered something. Tilting her head slightly she looked Genevieve straigth in the eyes.
"Can I have my chocolate frogs now...?" Being good was hard work after all.

You may want to be sorted in one place but the Hat has the gift of seeing something in you that makes you a better fit in another." And how was his portkey trip? "It was rather rough on the landing... but thats expected if one travels that way." Smirk. Thats why he would much rather fly or apparate.
He returned Vivi's lopsided grin with his own tight lipped smile, wider now of course as she was seated amongst them "Yes quite forgiven, made up for it too by being sorted into the most distinguished house." The like-minded as it were. "Did the Sorting Hat have any trouble where to put you?" he asked curiously as he eyed Alexa quickly "You're.... okay about being sorted here right?" because he has already seen two newly sorted students who seemed a little disgruntled with their placement.
"Yeah..." There as no arguing with that. Thanks to that little episode just now Lex was convinced that she would never travel by portkey again...unless they were going to Atlantis...that would have been worth it.
"You're lucky you didn't break anything like some people did." No she didn't count herself in that group of people and that was obviously because she
hadn't broken anything; Vivi said so herself.
"Uhhhh..." How would she answer that...?
"Well I like where I've been placed that's for sure!" Yup, she was a lion and she was proud.
"But the hat was being a bit difficult...I mean I even tried being nice before threatening it and even then it didn't listen to me! You don't even know how nice I was being." After she realized that the threats weren't working.
"In the end I think the hat was just stupid." She said with a shrug.
"Even after I threatened to dip it in gravy it wouldn't give me what I wanted." Such a silly hat and now it would pay; it would pay dearly--but not before she got her chocolate frogs....just in case...
