"She's a Slytherin like me." And she had honestly thought Eloise would get sorted into Gryffindor, given how crazy the younger Fairfield could be. However, Vivian wasn't complaining. It was better to monitor Eloise's shenanigans, being in the same house. "I can let her know you want to meet her?" It amused Vivian, though. Eloise didn't seem like the type to make fast friendships, but considering how Vivian hadn't heard complaints yet. It must mean something?

Oh, the art classroom! Vivian made a double take for a moment. That was in the first floor, she recalled, staircases away. "I've never really been there," the blond shared. Arts wasn't her thing, and Vivian couldn't even draw a proper crup without making it look deformed. "The violin's pretty interesting." Would be nice to learn it, she thought, but she didn't really have the time these days.

But the question that followed took Vivian by surprise. It was adorable and scary, how blunt these first years were. It made her wonder if she was just as straight-forward when she was eleven. She most probably was. "Well, I'm usually with Skylar, the Slytherin captain, or any of my dorm mates, or my sister." Who were all girls, by the way. Ahem. "Or if you meant my fellow Slytherin prefect, Coleslaw? I have patrol duties with him." The story behind how that happened, she will leave out. "Unless you mean the tall attractive seventh year boy who walks me to class? Yeah, that's my boyfriend." She couldn't help but grin. And oh no, it definitely wasn't a biased way of describing Chase Keighley. Not at all.

A bummer, indeed. Vivian didn't really see the point of having private common rooms as a kid. But now that she was older and a student leader at that, she realised it was usually for strategic planning on how to win the House Cup and all. But still, she would have loved to drop by other common rooms when she got bored. "It's fine. I'm sure you'll bump into me some other time." When she was patrolling, that is.

As for the younger Ravenclaw's offer, Vivian pondered again. It was funny, she thought. Why would a first year want to patrol with her in the first place? First year Vivian wouldn't have wanted to do that. It was legit tiring stuff. "I woooould but what exactly do you expect from tagging along with me?" Vivian didn't mind the company at all. But maybe not when she patrolled with Flynn. She knew her friend hated first years and Ravenclaws, and Oli was an unfortunate combination of both dislikes.
