emjay! <3 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. One of the things Claudine had gotten used to was roaming the Grounds by herself. Don’t get her wrong, being alone was something she loved. That particular afternoon, she decided to take a break from and sketching, and basically everything else but homework, to make another trip to the Aviary and Lepidopterarium. It was no Rose Garden (which she really wished that Hogwarts had, by the way) but the little creatures there were interesting enough.
Plus it was a good place to do homework.
The only issue were the bird droppings but as she had mastered the Scouring Charm, Claudine had no issue at all to do a quick clean of the stone bench she had chosen for herself. Instead of retrieving her books from her bag to get started on that homework, though, the second year randomly stared at some of the flora before her.
They were pretty but in that moment, Claudine wasn’t really seeing them. |
