| Arts TRANSPONSTER! Cecelia's new best friend got a glare from a red-faced Catherine when she started shouting about the Ravenclaw's work. She wasn't sure if her face was red because of the fact there was shouting about her work, or because of what the girl was saying about her work, or because Cecelia was obviously more interested in her new best friend than to even have the decency to talk to Catherine at all - smiles meant nothing to her -, or because that loud girl was just so obnoxious and had called her 'Cath'. No one called her Cath. No one who didn't have permission, at least. And that Gryffindor didn't.
Before she could correct Bernadette and tell her she wasn't welcome to give her opinion regarding Catherine's work, professor Rainwater blocked their view of each other, giving the Ravenclaw time to pull herself together and take a deep breath to help her face go back to its normal colour.
She tried to get back in the zone to work, but wasn't able to come up with anything new before the professor turned around to look at her list. Catherine didn't look up at him until he spoke his last sentence.
That was the moment this girl got closest to having twinkling eyes. Of course, they weren't really twinkling, but her surprise and even awe at the prospective of working with both men might've been seen in her eyes, and one didn't even need to look too close to see it. It would be doing proper, useful work. And her favourite professor ever was going to be involved! "Okay." Was her reply to the man as she nodded her head almost imperceptibly.
Catherine didn't want to get too excited at the idea because it might not happen - she knew adults were busy all the time and sometimes just said things to make them feel better - but just the fact professor Rainwater seemed interested enough to both give her an extra point and offer to work with her and professor Noble on the experiment surely meant something.
Never mind Cecelia and Bernadette. Catherine's day had just been made!
