They'd be on the grounds then suddenly everyone would have to bolt for the castle." She couldn't be sure what actually happened to cause the attack but she was more inclined to believe her cousin than the idiots they had running around that school. Pfft.
Lex waited for her to put aside the paper and grab a new one while she searched through the coloured markers for another colour she could use. This was Hayden's floor, she expected her covering faster than Lex could even understand. "I can't be completely sure but is the portrait for the kitchen this far down the corridor?" She mused aloud, hoping for the opinion of the Puffer. She'd been there a million times but she wasn't one for too many details.
As for the question on her house, Lex paused, giving it a moment's thought. Most would probably say it was alright and give a shrug but that was the last thing she felt. "It's epic, truthfully. I love being a Gryffindor, we've got all the rawr, you know? The adventure and the personality behind us isn't bad either." She'd been to the other Common Rooms, they weren't nearly as......brilliantly loud and vibrant.
Could have been anything? Really?
"What else could it have been?" Hayden would have had absolutely no explanation. If a Dragon had been hatched in the area, though, that would make sense. She couldn't think of what else it could be, but Lex knew more than her so maybe she would have been able to think of something. Or someone at the school could have had some other ideas. Still, the dragon seemed the most likely.
The portrait for the kitchen? Hayden looked where Lex was pointing and considered it for a moment. She could envision the hallway and where the portrait was supposed to be. She should definitely know that, she'd walked past it enough times. Hayden glanced back at the page and shook her head a little.
"I think it's up here just a little bit further." She drew her finger along the page and pointed to where she portrait should be. Lex had been pretty close so it didn't really matter too much whether she drew it in one place or the other, but to be the most accurate she did think that it should be moved just a little.
"So do you feel that you belong in Gryffindor?" She sounded like she liked it well enough, but that didn't necessarily mean it was where she belonged. Though she had been sorted there, and who had the right to argue with the Sorting Hat? Still, Hayden was curious about several aspects of the house system.
