What? She had NOT been hogging the book! Wait..."Oh. Umm..." she forgot to tell Destiny about that little bit of information. "My Uncle, he sent me new books on animagus. I've been reading those. But, I can totally give you some for the summer if you want. Give you something to do over the summer if you're bored. I forgot to tell you that...sorry."

Marie never thought about becoming an animagus? Ever since Transfiguration class, that's all she'd been thinking about! Well, no it was more ever since that meeting with Professor Lupa. But the Patronus charm was more on her mind that day than anything else. She still needed to work on that one...perhaps over the summer she could start trying it. "I could give you the other books I have if you want. I've already read through all of them, so I don't really need them. I just need them back next term so I can send them back to my uncle. He's only borrowing them from people for my use."

She was really tempted to say something about having Sly not get too close to the books either in case he found paper rather tasty as well, but refrained from doing so. She already bugged Destiny about him eating grass, she figured she would let this one slide for the time being. Unless he really did chew up one of the her books.

Snickering when Marie pretended to not hear what she said, Evelyn sat back up and crossed her legs before wiping the dirt off of her arms. Eh, there were still scars on them, but thankfully they were starting to fade away. Hopefully by next term they will be completely gone. So they were both already thirteen? Yea, now she felt small...stupid August birthday...

"Well, life isn't fair." she mumbled, standing up and brushing any grass or anything off of her shirt and pants. "I'm sure you'll figure everything out soon Marie. Just takes time I guess." Destiny's advice though, to stay away from boys forever, actually sounded pretty good. No stress of them, OR from parents! But, thinking of boys now, she had yet to apologize to Josh about what had happened. Well she did, but she didn't think it was enough for one little 'sorry'...

Marie's bet with Rex. Either she forgot about it, or the Slytherin didn't mention it, Evelyn could not remember what it was, but she nodded anyways. "Of course. A chance to make the Gryffindork suffer is something I would definitely not be able to pass up." And to see Kay's face in the process. Mwaha!
