The little group of girls had been discussing families and, worse, younger sisters. Niamh would never admit it but she missed her entire family. Usually it was just Nieth she missed when she was at school at Beauxbatons, but in England she missed her parents too.
Realising that the mystery surrounding Tora's family situation was being discussed, Niamh tried to focus on the conversation again. "Don't you mind being apart from your parents?" She asked, as gently as she could.
It was then that Niamh realised that Isobel had asked what her sister's name was. "Nieth," She replied, trying to hide the sadness in her voice. "Like N-I-E-T-H, but it's said like NEE-ETH, not NEETH. I don't know where my parents got it from." Stifling a yawn, Niamh said, "I'm sorry! It's rude to yawn, apparently. Do you think it's rude to yawn?" The girl asked, suddenly wondering if anybody else had been brought up that way or if it was just her. I must get to bed soon, she thought, tiredly.
OOC: Sorry for the absence - not well. Mum and Dad. Them. Tora really did love them but... well... she was just so different.
"Oh, no I don't really mind. Gram takes good care of me. And so does Grandad when he's home from travelling. Besides I'm used to it, I was sent to live with them when I was seven." she said remaining cheery on the outside while inside her thoughts turned to the twins. Those perfectly muggle twins. She guessed that it was just natural that Mum and Dad wouldn't want to send their precious twins away. She started to frown before checking herself again. Mum and Dad had sent her away so she could be around magic, not because they didn't love her. ...right?
Once Tora sees someone yawn she just has to contribute with one of her own!"'Scuse me," she said through the tail end of the yawn then turned to Niamh. "No, I don't think it's rude. As long as you cover your mouth and say 'Excuse me' or something like that. Or at least that's what Gram said so... yeah." She smiled at the older girl (who she thought looked rather tired) and asked "What school would your sister go to? Would she be the same at Beauxbatons then transfer here to Hogwarts?"
