Eh, Eden fit in just as well as Layla thought she did. Honestly, the fifteen-year-old did not fully know what house she belonged in nor did she entirely care. Each house was probably as bad as one another, only Slytherin would mean that she had the company of her cousin which would be very much appreciated. However here she was, stuck in blue robes and high up in a tower. Good job she didn’t mind heights. Her next statement however brought a frown to the blonde’s face. She couldn’t fathom that kind of abuse. “Who told you that?” Layla wasn’t entirely sure she’d call Eden a ‘friend’, more of an acquaintance but that didn’t mean she wanted the girl to be harshly spoken to like that. “You ain’t gonna be a failure, no one would let you be a failure.” She turned away from her roommate and glanced up at the riddle-telling knocker. Layla was quite close to her family, she lived with both her parents and her brother and his family didn’t live that far away from her either. .
Oh great, thanks for that Eden. Being told she was a ‘commoner’ did annoy her quite a lot. She did not care where she came from nor what she sounded like. Where she was from everyone sounded like she did, in fact a lot of them had an even stronger accent than hers. She was allowed to call herself common but others couldn’t, not to her face anyway. “You know what? These posh kids, they ain’t got no idea. They don’t know how to live, not properly anyway.” They got mummy and daddy to do everything for them, to pay for everything. They had no idea what it was like to have to scrape some money together for that weeks shop. Luckily Layla’s situation wasn’t so bad anymore but that didn’t mean the Ackerly’s didn’t struggle. It was down to her brother’s sister and brother-in-law that Bradley had a home to live in.
Then Eden started rambling on about some Scottish kid and the fifth year went back to inspecting her nails as she half-listened. “I ain’t difficult to understand. But if you tell me I don’t talk properly I will make sure you regret it.” It was her pet hate, yes she didn’t speak grammatically correct sometimes but she KNEW that, there was no need to tell her. As for where she was from? “Originally Brixton, but we moved to Clapham when I was real young. South London basically.” Because most people had no idea where those two places were.
She wanted them to all get along with one another? “Life ain’t that simple Eden.” She couldn’t tolerate Clara, she thought her stuck up and a know-it-all. She didn’t enjoy being in that dorm. “We ain’t in a therapy session..” ‘Talking things over’ wasn’t exactly on her agenda.
