As the school year had wore on into November, Eden had distanced herself more and more. Interacting with her peers was more difficult than it had been last term, or even over the summer. The smallest things grated incessantly at her nerves - exchanging pleasantries, spilt pumpkin juice, somebody sitting on her freshly made bed. She'd sent a lot of letters home to Elijah, at least. It was a luxury she wouldn't soon take for granted after how pear-shaped first year had went.

She'd filled the long hours of solitude in a variety of ways, but none so enjoyable as potions. A while back, when she'd still been living as a muggle, a therapist had encouraged Eden to take up "flow" activities. Potions was exactly that.

Her favorite "flow" activity also spoke to the reason she was approaching The Official Hogwarts No-No Zone at 8am on a Sunday. There was a healthy patch of silverweed about five yards from the forest's loosely defined edge. So she wouldn't have to actually enter it at all, see. Eden's eyes looked around for any onlookers. Hopefully she could get this done quickly. ~~Maybe look around for anything else useful.~~

8 AM was not the usual time for Quinn to be out and about. Today, however, after a long night of doing work and ~~not~~ sleeping, he was up bright and early. He stumbled out of the boy's dorm to get some food in his system that would hopefully wake him up for the day, but on his way out he saw Eden leaving the common room. Eden had been acting pretty strange since the start of the term, but so had he, to be fair, so he didn't question it too much. That didn't stop his curiosity from being piqued when he saw his friend shiftily sneaking out so early this morning, and he followed behind her so as not to be seen.

When she finally came to this patch of silverweed, he was a little confused. He had noticed she was taking up Potions recently, and he was glad she found something she enjoyed, but.... couldn't she get ingredients from the Potions room? And why was she acting so shady about it? He made his way over to Eden, still rubbing sleep from his heavily-bagged eyes. "Why are you out picking silverweed so early?" he asked, yawning.
