Plus, Piper could verify for her just what "kind of nut" were in them as Jillian stated. "I'm a second year," replied finally the 12 year old Gryffindor girl, shaking her head briefly to swish the bangs away from her eyes. "Do I look younger?"
Or older... "As for the frog hunt I wish you all the best of luck," concluded Daphne, having no intention in participating in such a task. Her legs would go nowhere near the lake as long as she could control her own body. "Although wouldn't it be easier if you asked the Care of Magical Creatures Professor for some help?"
Just as she was closing her mouth another Gryffindor entered the common room. Daphne's brows wrinkled in curiosity, was the entire house composed of girls? It almost felt like she was back at Belle's for a moment. "Hello, Demetria my name is Daphne Hopton," she called out from the window ledge but lowered her voice having flinched slightly at her own tone. "And these girls are..." She paused trying to recollect correctly all the names. "Miss Jillian," continued Daphne nodding her head at the direction of the girl who continued to slouch no matter how many pointed looks Daphne gave her. "Piper and her cat Petey, Hannah and one of our prefects, Anna."
Piper shook her head, as Daphne spoke. " No, you look just about how you should in my opinion.I was just wondering that is all." She said smiling as she took a cookie from Daphne and hesitantly took a bite. "These actually are not bad." She mumbled as she swallowed. the cookies reminded her of something her mother had made. And just like that tears started to well up in Piper's eyes, and she tried to think of something happy to take the tears away.

She figured she could catch up on some reading while still being near all the happenings in the common room. So far things hav not turned out the way the planned for her this year. Her best friend was in a different house, and she had not met any new friends yet. She knew she eventually had to break out of her shell so she just walked into the middle of the room and introduced herself to no one in perticular, just sort of the whole room."Hi I'm Demetria." she smiled shyly hoping someone would introduce themselves too.
Piper smiled warmly at the new girl, glad for the Distraction the new girls appearance gave her from her homesickness."Hello Demetria. Nice to meet you." She said as she wiped the stray tear away that fell down her face.

"Sure you could have some of the cookies. Daphne?" she turned to her friend but Daphne had already held out the cookies for Piper to take.
Piper managed a smile at Jillian, and she shook her head a bit at the girl's stifled giggles. " I must be really out of it, since I lived in America, but why were the school separated?" She asked curiously.
