Clara was simply exhausted by this point, even though the school year had barely started. She blamed this on the frenzy that occurred at the Hogwarts Express every single time. Nothing could be worse than that one time someone knocked over all three of her cauldron cakes on the ground. Although this was probably an absentminded accident, this student - who shall not be named - proceeded to stomp on the pastries. Luckily, this year the food situation was much better. Clara had gotten her pumpkin pasty on the train, and the start of term feast was delicious. Maybe she was ravenous by the time she got to the Great Hall, but the food seemed more delectable than usual.

The feast had lasted much longer than necessary this year. Probably because of the Sorting. It seemed like every year, more and more students were coming in. Or perhaps Clara had grown weary of trying to be excited for the 1st years as they nervously waiting in line, as they stared out at the older students, as they grimaced as the Sorting Hat was placed on their small heads. Sure, she had been a 1st year once, and of course she remembered how it felt. That didn't necessarily mean she needed to be empathetic. After all, these tiny children were the reason for the food being delayed.

Rolling her eyes at her inner thoughts, Clara walked through the hallways...and more hallways. Several floors later, she recognized the door that she had laid eyes on thousands of times - the door to the Ravenclaw Common Room. Sighing contentedly, she went to answer the riddle, but unfortunately some other student answered first. She barely even heard the question, but shrugged it off, slightly disappointed on the inside.

Glad that she was in the Common Room anyway, she spotted a few students here and there. Most of them were probably still eating, or conversing in the halls. Having had tons of food already, and tired of socializing, Clara sunk down into a chair close to the window. Looking through the glass, she saw a bird fly past the trees. Not yet ready to make it to the dorms, because that meant stress, she decided to sit there for a while. A moment of solitude was much needed then.
