THEY weren't her servants.

Maggie heard the other girl's steps before seeing her so she had enough time to move closer towards one of the walls in case it was anyone she didn't want seeing her in the owlery. And she appeared to have been partly right. Nicole. Great. Just great. Her hand had instinctively twitched a little, inching closer to where her wand was. Just in case. You had to be prepared with crazy people such as Nicole.

After a few seconds of just watching her, Maggie decided that it must have looked quite pathetic to be hiding - which she WASN'T of course - from the other girl. So with a casual clearing of her throat, she stepped forward again, eyes on the owls. She was simply going to ignore Nicole. Yep. Good plan.

Now, where was that owl?

She'd never have noticed her, focused as she was on feeling absolutely betrayed, if not for that throat clearing. She turned and spotted the girl move away from the wall. Had she... hidden?

Nicky was too annoyed to be amused.

The only thought she spared was a hope that Maggie'd gotten close enough to that wall to end up with owl droppings in her hair. She did, however, shift her robes for more easy access to her wand, in case someone still held sour grapes about her inferior performance.

Selecting an owl, Nicky coaxed it down from it's perch with a treat before presenting it with the howler. She scritched the head of the bird and whispered softly to it.

Nicky spared a glance in the other girl's direction, wondering what, if anything, she might do.
