Eliza, Ella, Professor Just as Cora was getting frustrated, she got words of encouragement from her professor. She would surely get this spell down soon. She would. "Thank you professor. I'll keep trying." Cora said sweetly with a smile. She greatly appreciated being noticed for once. Usually she was really great at being invisible.
Next, turning to Eliza, who had just invited Cora to join, Cora responded, "Oh, thank you Eliza. Too bad we don't have time. Maybe next class?" Cora braced herself for the climb down. She had made it upside down without a huge fuss, despite being nervous. But down again? Clenching her fists, Cora added, "I don't know how I feel about getting back down."
And then Cora realized she had been rude. She turned to the girl (Cora thought she may have met her before but didn't expect her to remember Cora), and introduced herself. "Hi, I'm Cora." A smile formed on her face, despite her nervousness.
After a pause: "And I'm a little terrified of the whole getting down part." She said this very matter-of-fact. After all, Cora was frightened on a regular basis.
