"Ella the Clumsy has a lovely ring to it too," Melanie replied, grinning. They were like... "The Clumsy's" or something. Because the two were self-pronounced clumsy people... right? Actually, Melanie wasn't sure if they were self-pronounced anythings... because her bestie had called her clumsy loads of times.
Cookies... Melanie hadn't thought too much about cookies. She looked at the ovens Ella had indicated though. Melanie hadn't noticed those there either. Now that she took another deep breath, she was pretty sure she could smell some cookies in the air. "They seem nice, I'm sure they won't mind," Melanie mused. "Cookies sound good." Really good. And judging from the smell, it probably tasted good too. "I try to come here... but it's so easy to get lost, so I usually just end up going elsewhere," Melanie said sheepishly. She had tried to come down here on more than one occasion. Really, she had. But with all the twisty staircases, Melanie got confused and lost. Mostly confused. Actually, probably more lost.
"I'm just grabbing some food. Some noodles, hopefully," Melanie said nodding. She wanted noodles. "And some snacks to bring up to the common room or go outside to eat," she added.
Because snacks were important.
"It does, doesn't it?" BEAM. The third year was way past worrying about her clumsiness. It was something about herself that she'd accepted and her friends seemed amused by it so-Shrug.
"They are nice!" Ella said with a small smile, her attention turning to the little house elves who appeared to be hard at work.
"My housemate and I were down her making ice cream sundaes not too long ago, they didn't mind." And she appreciated that, especially because if she had been turned away she would have been seriously upset. Ice cream sundae time was very important to her.
"Yeah...I'm in the mood for chocolate chip, I think. Though...peanut butter also sounds delicious at the moment." EEP! Maybe there were peanut butter chocolate chip cookies! That would be a-maz-ing! Mhm!
"Lost?" Grin.
"I used to get lost all the time while wandering around the castle." Though the kitchens were easy to find, her common room being so close and all.
"I actually still get lost sometimes, when I'm walking around and thinking about things." And she really didn't mind when that happened, always up for an adventure.
"Noodles, huh?" Ella had never had a craving for noodles before, though they were quite delicious.
"I'm sure they have some around her somewhere!" Or that they wouldn't mind whipping some up if they weren't super busy.
"Is that your favorite food, noodles?" Cause if so, that was a cool choice. Very unique.
