She hurried downstairs and out of the common room. Closing the door and putting on a smile, she turned around. "Alright, Lannes, let's g-..." Uh oh. Lannes was not there, waiting for her. He had run off.
She cursed inwardly. She'd told him what she'd gone to do. It couldn't have taken her more than a few minutes, but no. He was gone. Which was most definitely not a good thing. Kiri had no clue where Nancy was, either. She set off at speed down the corridor.
One corner down, Kiri found him. At least, she was forced to accept she had. It was unlikely she was hallucinating - even though the situation looked utterly bizarre. Lannes was peacefully scribbling away on one of the walls of the corridor. She hurried closer. "What," she hissed, "in the name of Merlin's dyslexic scribe do you think you're doing?"
There was a awkward silence for a minute.
A long minute.
Finally, Lannes responded.
"I'm fixing these Vandals grammar, what does it look like?"

Nancy had dashed down the flight of stairs which lead to the Dungeons, and therefore also their Common Room, to simply throw all your stuff onto her bed in the dormitories before without another glance back if she hadn't just killed somebody by throwing a book at her she ran down into the Common Room again. She was late. Well, duh, obviously. She had been doing her Arithmancy homework, finished it actually, but of course had not looked at the time at all. And now she was late. Late for her and Kiri's showing this Lannes boy around Hogwarts. Hopefully she wouldn't be angry...talking of whom, where was Kiri actually? Or Lannes?
After a few unsuccessful scans around the Common Room in search for either of the two Nancy decided to go look outside in the Dungeon Corridor for them. Maybe they had already started without her. Running a hand through her dark-blonde hair she let her blue eyes wander down the corridor and really, there they were. "Oi! Kiri! Lannes! Sorry I'm late. I was doing my Arithmancy homework and sorta...uhm...forgot the time. So..." Nancy trailed off as she reached the two, her facial expression changing from surprise into a huge frown. "What the heck are you doing?!" Her blue eyes darted back and forth between the writing on the wall and Lannes who was holding a pen in his hand, before turning to stare at Kiri. "What is going on here?!" Please, don't let Kazi come now! They would be in soo much trouble.
Eep!!
Lannes looked over and saw Nancy as well. He looked at both of them with his dark blue eyes, completely bewildered why his behavior struck them as odd.
