Cassia hadn't give it much of a thought at first but usually Lex wouldn't be sitting like that doing nothing. Was there something wrong? Last time Cassia saw Lex was when they saved the school from the vicious plant and they we thrilled by their victory. So had something occurred next or Lex was just bored as Cassia was. Well, at least she smiled. Cassia saw good in that. The snake nodded in agreement about the older kids. "Yeah like it would kill them to see who're they bumping." Cassia said rubbing on her shoulder. Either someone's knee or elbow hit her there. She was too busy making sure she stayed alive that she didn't have time to check.

And Yay! Lex was back to life. Cassia beamed when her friend hopped up and snapped out of her sitting boring position. Cassia was glad she came what if Lex had stayed like that just sitting. She couldn't even imagine that! "Of course you don't neither do I." The snake stated. "Oh I'd do anything to draw my attention from the empty plates before us." She said her eyes drifting to the plate on the table which she noticed would fit for a huge piece of delicious cake! Guh! Cassia tore her attention from the plates and locked her gaze on Lex. "Come up with anything 'cos I'm hungry and in no shape to think." The snake pushed her hands down her pockets and swayed back and forth on her feet.

I can surviiiive! She kept telling herself. Looking around trying to occupy her mind with something other than food sh glanced at the staff table and focused on the headmistress sending a pleading look that won't be delivered to urge the woman to say the speech and have the plates full! "Oh by the way, Did you hear that two professors are leaving?" Cassia said turning to Lex. "Other than the eaten professors." She said and realized that she never thought of using that term. Eaten Professors...Well, hopefully that won't be a casual thing to say though it already seemed to be.
