The joining first year was very lucky in that Aurora WAS a very friendly person and the flutter of air from her plopping the pillow down and creating a sort of daisy confetti didn’t annoy her. In fact it momentarily distracted her by how pretty the effect was as the petals came tumbling down and settled onto her lap and surrounding floor. She scooped them gently back into a pile before turning to the new girl.

“Sure! I was making them for the horses in the stables but you can have one if you like?” She nudged one of the completed chains towards her fellow Ravenclaw. “You can help make them too, if you know how to. Or I can teach you if you don’t? I used to make them in the school field at my primary school.” Sadly it wouldn’t be long before the daisies disappeared from the grass as winter took hold in Scotland but that made the return to spring even more exciting.

The fourth year had a habit of overwhelming the younger Claws with her enthusiasm and fast speech but her new companion seemed equally as peppy and wouldn’t be frightened away if she continued to talk whilst her fingers worked away. “I’m Aurora by the way. Are you enjoying Hoggies?” How could anyone not? It was magical!
