AND she was a Gryffindor too, which meant she was cool and already his friend. "HelloooOOOOOOOooooooo!" The second year replied to her greeting with the same amount of enthusiasm because WOOOHOOOOOOO, why not?? HELLO! Aww! L o o k i t! A FELLOW HAPPY PERSON among this sea of glum and sadness. Olivia practically beamed at Matt as he took his seat next to her, scooting a bit closer to give him a one-armed snuggle. Nope, she wasn't particularly close with her Gryffindor housemate. Nor had she ever really spoken to him, but none of that matter, obviously. LIV WAS A HUGGER. So, he'd earned himself a hug.
Hi.
...and she'd probably gotten some of her glitter on him. Oops.

Though his mouth was also in a grin, which would explain why his eyes looked to be smiling. He chuckled at her display and then greeted her with a “G-good morn-ning Miss Phillips.”
Once the door was closed he faced the students and said “F-first lesson of the year, er… n-now today we will be brewing a-a v-very advanced potion, so y-younger stu-students mi-iiiii-iiight want to work with an older student,” or not, it was completely up to them. “Now Miss Pinkerton-Oliveira,” he searched for her face and, “Miss Meadows,” he searched for another face. Once he found them, he asked “Would you be s-so-so kind as t-to lift the cl-oths?” Doing so would reveal a large bottle of ruby red liquid, a medium sized bottle of a solid blackish-brown liquid, a large bowl of what looked like fur balls, a smaller bowl of mottled yellow and brown shards, a bowl of what looked like eyebrows, and a smaller bowl full of thin, long, pink, odd looking spiky things. Each ingredient was also displayed in a small jar, which was for demonstration purposes only. He smiled up at the class and looked at them for a moment. Could they see? “Mr Bronwyn, would y-you be able to pass these ing-gredients around?” he asked the Ravenclaw Prefect, indicating the small jars, rather than the bowls and bottles.
After giving the students plenty of time to look at each of the ingredients, he said “Who wo-would like to take a gu-guess at what we might be bre-brewing today?” he asked. ....AND THE PROFESSOR WAS SMILING AT HER! Yup! That was absolutely what smol blonde loved to see: her antics bringing about cheer in others! After she'd finished her "performance" and snugged her seating buddy, she wiggled her fingers at the older man. See?! Smiling wasn't so hard. Could everyone just follow his example now?! Merlin, Liv really didn't want her mellow to be harshed. What "mellow", though?? Who was she kidding. Olivia Phillips had zero chill 100% of the time!
...and it wasn't that she wasn't paying attention and taking note of everything....(okay, there were no notes, but come on! baby steps, people), but Liv pretty much already knew that she'd need an older student's help. Her mum had been fabulous at potions, apparently, but Liv often found herself bored. Easily distracted, this one was.....meaning a lot of cauldrons had been harmed in the making of her life story.
THIS WAS NOT TO SUGGEST THAT SHE WASN'T DOWN TO TRY, THOUGH. So, hand shooting straight up into the air (as she wiggled around in her seat), Liv warned the Potions Professor, "I'll definitely need help if it's something advanced. I don't have great potions skills." First step in fixing a problem was admitting that there was one. Mhm. AND SHE WANTED TO LEARN....in theory. So her mum didn't send her to a reform school.
Also, Dante Barrington.....we SEE you! We'll get you into a tiara and feather boa yet!
