People annoyed her, probably far more than they should but there you had it. People annoyed her.

She wasn't planning to stalk out of the compartment the way she did, it just happened as a natural reflex and would more than likely be seen as a favour. It wouldn't have been anything short of a favour because Lottie said it herself; she was the reason the girl was upset. As simple as that. She upset people even when she didn't talk.

At the moment she wasn't sure whether she was more annoyed...or hurt. Either way she wasn't in the best of moods and wondered if faking an illness would have allowed her to miss the speech. Sure it would have meant missing the feast too but she wasn't particularly hungry anymore. There was just one problem with that. She couldn't miss the feast because Lottie said they needed to talk.

About what? She didn't know anymore. She didn't know a lot of things anymore.

Lex slipped Felix into his cage (he knew this part was coming and didn't pretend otherwise) and put it on top of her trunk. Something or someone would take him and her things to her dorm. He was lucky. He didn't have to sit through the feast with a sinking mood. She looked around after some time. No Lottie. Maybe she was riding the carriages with Garrick. That would make her feel better.

Might as well make her way to the carriages then.

SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH.
