That's just how it worked, or so she had heard, because her parents still hadn't let her get a cat yet. You'd think being a prefect would prove that she was responsible enough for a kitten but apparently not. Maybe her parents still couldn't figure out why they'd chosen her for the badge, 'cause Norah sure hadn't figured out yet.

Grinning sheepishly, she glanced back at the bushes she'd just been climbing through. "I'm sure it had loads of places to go, but there must be a way to bring it back. Butterflies like bright colors 'n stuff." All of a sudden the idea sounded a whole lot dumber than it had before, especially with TWO whole firsties there staring at her. They probably thought she was a total weirdo too, which was extra unfortunate because she'd promised herself to be normal-er (whatever that meant). Butterfly catching. Who DOES that. Okay fine, she still thought it was a kind of good idea but she could pretend she didn't for the sake of non-weirdness. "I guess it was silly." Norah chewed on her bottom lip and cast her eyes downward for a moment because that'd hadn't been entirely true, before looking Ava in the eye again and standing up to her full five feet of height. Prefects were WELCOMING. YEAH. "It's really nice to meet you, Ava!" AND YOU, OTHER FIRSTIE WHOSE NAME SHE DIDN'T KNOW. "What're you and Preston doing out here?" Probably something more respectable than catching butterflies. Sigh. Wasn't this all supposed to get easier now that she was old?

Butterflies? Tom remembered what his older brother had told him once about girls being practically a different species. He hadn't understood it then, but maybe he was having a better time seeing it now. He blinked a couple of times in confusion but otherwise managed to keep his expression neutral.

"You know, you can catch butterflies lots easier if you're just really still. If you try to run after them it just makes them run away. And of course if you put sugar water or something on your hand then they'll want to land on you...." Tom trailed off before he crossed the line into lecturing, because his father and brother had always told him that it was really annoying when he lectured and that really nobody wanted to hear it. He cleared his throat uncomfortably. "I'm Tom, by the way," he said to the older girl, then he turned back to Ava. "May I pet Preston, too?"


Of course it's a nice name for a cat. Ava didn't want to name her pet in a silly name like marshmallow or whatever. She loved considering her pet as a friend of her, hence why she named it like a person. "It's a male." She answered. Preston is a male name, okay? If her cat was a female maybe she would name it like... Okay, she didn't have any idea about female cat name. And could she pet her? "Oh yeah, sure. He's a friendly cat." And of course Tom could pet him too. Her Russian blue cat was gorgeous, wasn't it?

"Aren't you too old to catch butterflies?" And not to mention that she's a PREFECT. Prefects usually were the older students who seemed mature (like Zander, Puck and Adi... well, sometimes Adi could act childish too but he's still pretty cool for being a prefect.) But she's listening to Tom's tips and tricks how to catch butterflies and maybe she could practice it later.... She's not that old for that, hehehe. "I'm just... walking around. Preston and I love the nice fall weather, and I think he's bored staying at my dorm."
