She nodded in agreement. Non-verbal shield and defense spells were hard. She had been able to cast one last year but since then she hadn't had much luck. She would have to practice more. A patronus was very HARD to conjure. Olivia hadn't figured it all out yet. She had the wand movement and incantation down ....but finding the happiest memory that she had? That remained a mystery. Olivia shook her head. "Not yet. I have the incantation and wand movement but I haven't been able to find the happiest memory of mine. I've tried other memories but apparently none of them are the happiest one I have. What about you?" she asked with a curious smile. She had been glad that several of their mates had been able to conjure up patronuses during the competition against the "dementor" or whatever that creature was.

Olivia bit her lip as Noelle asked her to tell her all things. She glanced around them, making sure no one overheard and then went to the edge of the bridge, resting her arms on the ledge as she glanced down. Woah. She turned her gaze quickly up. She didn't like heights. "Umm.. How do I put this?" she said. She was never good with expressing how she felt. "How do you discreetly let someone know that you have feelings for them without scaring them away?" she said.
