And at least we have this term, before we officially go off who knows where," she said. Of course, things were still not exactly the same as the past couple terms, but she wasn't exactly the same either. Although it would be easier to believe that if she could actually find him.

She smiled back at Cayden as he silently responded to her original greeting, knowing that that was probably about as much as she could hope for from him. Even though she almost wished he would talk more, since it wouldn't be so silent in the compartment. But even with that wish, she was surprised when he came to the defense of Seth, who was still pointedly ignoring her from the other end of the seat. "I'd imagine if there were any, they'd be new ones," she commented idly, glancing at the Hufflepuff out of the corner of her eye, biting back a laugh as she saw how determinedly he was trying to show he was ignoring her.

He was still stuck on that little threat from almost two months ago?, she couldn't help but think, glancing at Mari with a curious expression, since the other girl seemed to be acting as her ally, even though she was also somewhat of a neutral party. If she was going to do this, she wanted someone on her side. Curling her legs up underneath her, she made sure she was comfortable. Bella seemed to sense something was about to happen, and came to sit underneath her seat, before she swiveled to look at Seth again. "You do know I defend my books quite, um, virulently, right?," she then said, a completely serious look on her face. Besides, he hadn't seemed like he had taken her previous threat seriously, so she hadn't expected the immature cold-shoulder routine. And she was a Ravenclaw, so everyone should expect her to be that way about books. All she had done back at her house was point out a fact, when he had, even if it was jokingly, threatened to burn her books. Even if he wanted to keep ignoring her, she was going to make her point. It's not like she was going anywhere during the term, and if he stayed with Asteira he was bound to see her again later.
Mariska nodded and smiled a little at her friend. " Happy is good. It's almost strange to be so...content for once." She smiled a little more and then she shrugged. " That's true. We have this term to worry ourselves sick about exams and then worry about what we'll end up doing after." She said with a slight glance and smile in Cayden's direction. They would have a lot of time on their hands after graduating that year but all she wanted to do was travel, exercise her newfound freedom once everything was done.


Mari smiled widely and gave delicate little snort of laughter at Elizabeth's words; She was sure there would be a variety of bruises on Seth's person if it was Asteira he was dealing with. Shoe-shaped, sandal-shaped, hand-shaped and probably any other shape one could imagine. Asteira had an arm on her, Mari thought with a little smirk. The girl was her best friend, Mari loved her like a sister, but Asteira was quite unpredictable at times.

So when Seth made a vague bruise comment, Mari fixed him with an 'Oh-Really-Now?' sort of look, one eyebrow raised as she stared at him for a few moments just to give him an idea of how . She said nothing to him, but she resolved to have a discussion with him later, just the two of them. Very cozy, she thought with a sigh as she moved her hand to Cayden's, loosely holding it in her own.

She gave another laugh, moving her gaze away from Seth's for a moment to look at Elizabeth as she explained how she defended her various tomes. " Virulently, that's a good one. One doesn't hear it enough in everyday conversation." She said with a little grin at Elizabeth.
