Sure...she'd only keep it up if they didn't mess up. That message was underlined in her tight features. Welcome to Slytherin. Here's something boring to read. Dot accepted the piece of paper with a completely placid expression, which continued on as she studied the paper. Briefly. Got it. Be good, work hard, win win win. She was on board with this plan.
"Houses can't be proud. They're inanimate." Not to mention that her mum had told her she didn't have to do things to please other people, just herself. She was a strong, independent woman. Rawr.
Where was her kitten? Quote:

She replied softly gently chewing at her bottom lip as she looked at the other girl.
There was something moving around in the other girls shirt that she appeared to be holding. When it was put down on the floor and made it's way around the room it instantly caught her attention being an animal lover. Watching it for a moment she remembered she was talking to someone and turned her attention back. "I'm Hady by the way."
Just as soon as those words were out of her mouth an older girl (Beverly) was before her handing her a piece of parchment. Taking it she glanced over what it said before lifting her head back up and offering a smile and nod of her head. "I'll do my very best." Hady responded politely wanting the girl to know she wasn't rude and she certainly would do what she could to help out her house. Dot settled back into her chair, working the piece of paper from the badged girl into a little ball for Nimbus to play with. It was about the only way to get him to come back and be her friend when there were so many interesting things to sniff in the room. And it worked, too, as the kneazle kitten returned to Dot's side in order to pounce the ball of paper.
"I'm Dot. We should keep a log of what we see, 'cause maybe they only come by at certain times. I wonder what else lives in this lake." Maybe a shark that liked to fight the squid for buried treasure. Maybe a sunken pirate ship with ghosts. Maybe a manatee. Probably not a manatee, but MAYBE. Quote:

Quite the opposite was true as she displayed what he thought of as a true grasp of discretion at the opening feast.
Which meant he would say nothing about her wriggling shirt. It was the boy again. The interrupting one. Dot rolled over in her bean bag chair so she could watch him across the common room. He had a sort of sulky face, not unpleasantly so but definitely not one that looked like it was meant for grinning. Dima and Kyroh had grinning faces. This boy... at least he was interestin'.
Dot sunk down deep into the chair so that all one could see was the glint of blue eyes and a ginger plait, and she regarded him with that same sort of air she'd had at the table during the feast. A little 'go away go away', and a little 'stay stay stay so we can watch you'.
It was very confusing being a Dot.
