Mischievous Niffler
After the message of blood was finished, the head girl did nothing. She maintained the same kneeling position she'd taken to write, only now staring blankly forward instead of writing. There wasn't very much happening in her thoughts.
How long she would have stayed in that position was unknown, because at that moment Zoryn charged in and SHOVED the head girl out of the way. She fell forward, crashing into the bowl of blood (splashing some of the remainder out) and giving out the smallest of grunts as she collided with the floor. She made no effort to retaliate. Very soon Zoryn was gone, but none of this registered in the mind of Kitty, who slowly moved back into her kneeling position as if nothing had happened. Her hair was a little messier than it had been and her pajamas ruffled.
Moments later, the room was filled with commotion as Flynn, Emmeline, and Olivia entered the room to find what she'd done. She ignored their words. One of them (Emmeline) put her hand on her shoulder and squeezed. To her, Kitty turned her head slowly to look into her eyes. The look on Kitty's face was blank, and if she understood anything she did not show it. Perhaps she only turned to look because of the squeeze.
Then came Professor Myers. Completely ignored at first. When he waved his hand in front of her, her eyes followed it back and forth, but other than that she paid him no heed. Juniper and Ronan came in around the same time. By now, the head girl was surrounded by a pretty large crowd. She ignored both of their questions. They were good questions, but she had no words to share...nor thoughts to think.
