She didn't need to lift her head from the polished, wooden surface to know who'd just offered that greeting. Kitty Valentine. The girl who'd opened her mouth about repealing the statute of secrecy and lost every ounce of respect she'd had for her in the process. It wasn't just that she thought the idea was silly--of course not. Nothing wrong with silly. Sometimes she had silly ideas too. This one from the Head Girl wasn't silly, it was dangerous and terrifying.
Suffice to say she was happy to see her go, no matter how regrettable the thought of disliking someone so much was. It wasn't that she hadn't tried liking the older girl, it was that Kitty didn't know when to keep things to herself and it made others uncomfortable. The fact she didn't think she could save everyone that discomfort by simply choosing her battles carefully and knowing when it wasn't worth pushing the envelope was what really set her against her. Nevertheless, in the spirit of the ending term and being civil, Jessa lifted her hand in gesture of something resembling a wave. "Hello Kitty."
Blue eyes shifted from her to Professor Stewart as she approached the table. She received a skeptical look for the fact she hadn't been acting quite like herself this term and had not only condoned but aided in passing on the harmful views that were best left out of discussions. "Good evening, Professor." She replied albeit a little curtly, not removing her gaze until yet another claw joined them at the table.
At least this one didn't have her feeling like she was about to break out into a nasty case of hives.
"Hey Cassie." Maybe she should have waited on Jahan before heading down. They could have sat together. Valko too. Again, she looked to the Professor wondering if her being here meant they'd have to edit all their conversations just because a grown up happened to be at the table. "What're the odds things'll return to normal next term? I've had enough of all," She gestured around vaguely, "this."
