Talking to Brandon about their instruments had given her the idea, and now it had become tradition for her to take it with her since sometimes she liked to get away from the crowd and practice out in the open. Today was no different.

Buuut, this bouncy second year’s hunt for the perfect spot was interrupted by hauntingly beautiful cello sounds. Yes, Dynah could tell the difference between that and a violin almost immediately. Violin sounds were sorta softer, more refined while the cello's were fuller. The Hufflepuff did not even need the visible part of the cello to guide her in its direction; the melody was enough.

Before she made an appearance to the cello’s owner, she removed her violin from the case. The instrument was set on her left shoulder and she began to play. Having already gotten the melody stuck in her head, Dy easily was able to follow along. It was while playing that she strode slowly to meet the cello player.

She immediately blushed when it became clear that it was Tamara. Luckily, the rosiness of her cheeks could be attributed to the cold.


If she were to have guessed what was going to happen from her playing her cello by the shack, it probably would have been that one or two people would have been scared off by the sounds of instrument given the current setting. Maybe one or two would have taken it as a challenge and come to seek her out. Or the majority just would have ignored her entirely and not cared about the music stemming from the area.

But what did happen was not something Tam had anticipated. But it was 100x better than anything else that had come to her mind.

There was music joining hers. She couldn't see where it was coming from yet, but that didn't matter to her. The sounds of the violin melted beautifully with her cello and she just closed her eyes and continued to play, letting the joy of the moment take over. She didn't get much opportunity to play with other people so this was a particularly magical moment for her.

Thinking she heard the violin getting loud, her eyes did open again and she spotted an older Hufflepuff approaching - Dynah she thought was her name. She recognized her from seeing her around Anna's table and if she wasn't mistaken, their sisters were friends as well. She grinned widely at the girl and kept playing until she reaching the last note and drew it out slowly before lowering her bow. She could spot the slight touch of red to the others cheeks, but she assumed it was the cold or perhaps the elation of music that she always seemed to get as well. "That was amazing! And I love your violin! It's beautiful!" She wasn't normally a particularly chatty individual with new people, but playing already bonded them if one was to ask Tam.
