She made a soft noise, possible a tiny snort of laughter.
At least she knew now that not every student took it like a fish to water. The girl bit her lip again, almost to the point of breaking the skin. "I thought-" She stopped briefly and realized that she'd messed up her color patterns. Rayna let out a low, frustrated growl and erased her off-colored shapes, and started to try again. "I thought I'd..." She wrinkled her forehead and rubbed her eyes, "I thought I'd be handling it better. The being away from home thing." How had her brothers made it sound so easy? It was like they couldn't wait to get back to school!
Felicity shook her head and chuckled a little at Rayna. "Trust me, Felicity isn't that easy to find on key chains, either," she couldn't help but muse, realising that her Dad had always gotten her things specially embossed. "It's not weird at all, it's unique. No one'll forget it, or get you muddled up." You know, if it wasn't enough that she had a really pretty name.
"I... I got used to Ilvermorny," she managed, her own turn to bite down on her bottom lip. "I think... Moving here has been harder than getting used to going to boarding school, you know?" What with the fact that, even if her dads said her home was now London, she felt that home was still North Carolina. "But... With boarding school, you do get used to it. When you get good friends..." She wouldn't mention all of the crazy stuff Nathan had told her about the school. Maybe that was another reason she couldn't get used to the place.
