Having nothing else better to do, LouAnn Purple exited the chaos known as the Gryffindor Common Room and headed down the corridor. As she walked along, her mind raced with everything that had happened since she'd first arrived at Hogwarts. She'd made more friends than she'd originally thought she would, which was certainly a good sign. A person can never have too many friends, now can they?

She thought of Jake, Chris, Jack, Theo, Rafe, Cela...and all the other friends she'd managed to meet during such a small period of time. Despite the fact that she'd been feeling odd lately, her life felt like it was sort of, maybe, coming together. Perhaps life wasn't turning out to be so unfair after all.
