And there she went again. Going on and being perfectly logical. Kurumi had a horrible knack for always being right and as her best friend spoke Selina could not help but feel that she was right by every meaning of the word. Selina was real, she knew she was real. That meant that she was being silly for regretting her feelings toward him. The problem was that all she wanted was for her feelings to go away and for things to go back to the way they were before this whole mess. The pair of them had never been an extremely outward couple, they did not let drama seep into their world, and yet Selina had brought it in when she asked him that question. She was going to loose him and it was going to be because she could not control her emotions.

Except, now that Kurumi was reasoning with Selina she could see that her feelings could not have been stopped. She saw that she could not regret what she had said because she had genuinely meant it and that was all that had mattered. Would it have been nice to have the feelings returned? Yes. But she was not a perfect person and this was not a perfect world. Life happened while she was busy making plans. She could not control how anyone else felt besides herself and she saw now that it was not bad that she was feeling. It just meant that she was human, that she was real. But that realization did not make her feel any better.

After Selina collapsed in on herself on her bed, she barely registered what Kurumi had asked her about how she was going to move forward. She honestly did not know. As of right now she was perfectly content laying in her bed and hiding from the rest of the world until she could collect herself enough so she could go about her day acting like nothing was wrong. It was the easiest way to handle this situation because it was much harder to pull one's self back together than to completely fall apart. She did not want to go through all of that so she was just going to not fall apart. Crying she could handle, but really falling apart would devastate her.

Her arms wrapped around her shoulder to give her some kind of warmth before she said, "I don't know what I want to do. But I don't think I want to see him right now... or for a while..." It was not a good answer, but it was a start.

The dormitory is where one awoke each day. The sun peered meekly at her as Sarah tip toed to the dormitory wall and put up this sign:

The other girls kept on sleeping, not knowing that when they push the snooze button when their alarm will go off in the next hour, they will be caught in action by this sign.

Tiffany was really tired after a day of going back to school. She had gone to bed early yesterday and planned to wake up in the late morning the next day, hopefully no one was going to wake her up. However, things didn't go right in reality.

She just couldn't help but waking up by herself as usual. Sitting on her bed, she looked around and saw everyone else are still living in their own sweet dreams, except for one first-year student. It was quite rare to see a junior waking up so early. "Hello there," she said, waving at her.

"Good Morning! I hope you slept well!" Sarah greeted cheerfully. She was always in a good mood in the morning once she was up - much to everyone elses dismay. "Isn't it stunning being up nice and early, it is like adding hours to your day!". The birds outside merrily sang their morning song. "Besides, this is a perfect time to think and do homework and learn". She paused/ " You know, sometimes when I arise this early I want to go back to sleep and then I remember that that extra sleep wont help me much at the present. The quicker I get out of bed the better. Although i hate the winter mornings - so cold!"

A cheerful first-year student. This girl really reminded her of how she has been throughout these three years. She was just like the younger Tiffany before.

Seeing the little girl running here from there and explaining things to her, she listened carefully and smiled. "Good morning! It was surely a nice day with all those lovely birds and so on,"she answered with excitement. "Well, my name's Tiffany, a third-year student, in case you want to know," she chuckled.

"Well my name is Sarah, and I am a first year - a yearling! So which year has been you r best year so far? I have been loving being a first year and most students are nice. Have you done your homework yet? What is your favourite class". Sarah paused her intorrigation. It was not nice to ask so many question to an elder person.

It was a bit too much to be attacked with thousands of questions in this very beginning of a day but that Tiffany could actually handle them all, one by one.

"Well nice to meet you, Sarah,"she greeted politely."Um...there wasn't any best years in her school life since every year was a great one. And for the homework, I have just finished them in one night's time,"she was a bit proud of herself being that hard-working. "And my favourite class...I think it would be Charms then. How about you?"she asked with curiosity.

Tiffany sat on a chair comfortably and was really satisfied with all her answers to this morning interview and was waiting for another.

"Well, I like charms as well as it is hands on, yet Arithmancy is food for the brain!" Sarah said, rather elated that the third year was not annoyed with her yet.

"Arithmancy?"Tiffany hesitated a bit. Well since she was weak in that subject and she hated subjects that was so connected to Maths, that's why she was shocked that there was actually somebody who liked it.

Charms was the best after all, she thought.

"Yes, I like maths- wierd aint it? I like how the different letters in your name mean something - yet i like charms as it is a bit more useful,,".

"Not really,"she smiled. Well,somehow Tiffany found it quite interesting to find meanings in her name but just those math-related things...

"Anyway let's move on to another question, who is your favourite teacher?"she asked eagerly.

Emmaline swept into the dormitory, smiling briefly at the other girls in the room. She hoped she could make some friends, especially ones who wouldn't judge her for being extraordinarily smart.

"I don;t know, I certainly like some more then others, yet they are all cool in different ways..." her voice trailed off. "Although, I should decide soon, being that we are nearly half way through the year..." Then a newcomer caught her attention.


"Wanna join us?" Sarah warmly asked the elder newcomer. "We are just chatting about school and life - right Tiffany?"she asked the third year. Sarah turned her attention back to the newcomer - "What is your name by the way? My name is Sarah".

Then she cleared her throat and said in a voice of mock importance to the two elder girls, "The conversation is now resumed. Now what were we saying - oh yes, what is your favorite teacher". She dropped her voice to a stage whisper, "don't worry, not a word will be uttered about your preference to the staff - though i do like prof bentley."

Emmaline composed her surprised look at the invitation.
"Oh, I'm Emmaline Winslow, call me Emma. It's ever such a pleasure to meet you," she replied in a confident voice.

"Please to meet you Emma. As I said my name is Sarah Edwards. I am a first year, what year are you in? By the way, who is YOUR favourite teacher? I don;t have one, though I do like Professor Herbology" Sarah said animatedly. She was too lazy to think of the teachers name - it was a kind of car was all she rembered.

"I'm in my fifth year," Emma stated, "And do you mean Professor Sprout? Well, I like all the teachers, but I do particularly enjoy Arithmancy and Charms. You should think about getting into Arithmancy in your third year." Emma sat down on her bed and crossed her legs as they dangled off the end of the bed. She reached down into her bag and pulled out a textbook. "Studying this year is going to be very time-consuming; we have our O.W.L.s this year."

"No I mean professor Bently - isn't Bently a name of a car? I too like arithmancy and charms - charming aint it?" Sarah replied. "You may have O.W.L.S yet that means that you are going to leave school sooner! Although I don't have O.W.L.S I am trying to get good studying and revision habits now!". Sarah noticed her companion fingering her textbook and then noted out loud "Good, that means that I am not the only one here who reads textbooks.".

OOC: I see, you like me are new here. Here in RP land we are in the 2070's and the professors have changed from Harry Potter's days to other RP players. Therefore out herbology teacher, Bentley (Hera) is head of our house. Also in RP land all years can take arithmancy!

Emma laughed. "I read them all the time, I've nothing else to do and no one to talk to." She blushed. She was making herself sound so dull and lonely. Well, she pretty much was both.

OOC: Thank you, I forgot we have Professor Bentley and that anyone can take all classes. My mistake!

Tiffany looked at the way which Sarah pointed at. Then she noticed that someone else had entered the room, indeed. There stood another girl who should be a senior to Tiffany.

Turning to Sarah, she replied,"Of course I wouldn't mind."She greeted the girl with a big grin on her face."It's Tiffany here,third year."

"Yes, I did too. I do it at home a lot. They are very interesting sometimes - one day I think I will be a writer, a writer of fun textbooks written in an engaging style like a novel. Wouldn't learning about the Goblin Revolution be so much more interesting if it was written as a diary or a novel about a goblin or witch living at that time?" Sarah said. This was such a nice cozy bedroom chat. Thank goodness Tiffany was a Gryffindor and not Slytherin. If she were Slytherin maybe Tiffany would have not let the lonely looking girl join. Sarah's heart always cried when she saw a lonely looking girls, as she could identify with the girl's predicament as that lonely looking girl was usually her."So, beside homework and reading, what do you girls do in your free time at Hogwarts. Sometimes I go to the Herbology Greenhouse and student Garden and help there, because although I prefer other subjects over herbology, Proffessor Bently is so nice and I have nothing against Herbology. I also get to to practice spells there. Like I practice Aguamenti there, it help with revision for transfiguration. And you?"Sarah asked the girls in front of her.

OOC: Sorry for taking so long to reply.

Noticing that Sarah actually look quite relived when Tiffany said that she did not mind letting the newcomer to join their conversation, she was kind of confused. Why would Sarah feel that actually?

"Well, as for me, I will just go outside to have a walk to see if I can suddenly come across anyone that I know or that I would go to the library,"she replied with a smile on her face. Sarah did mention Professor Bently for thousands of times, so..."It seems like you like Professor Bently very much right?"Tiffany chuckled.

"I sure like her very much! Do you blame me? She is easier to like then the potions mistress... It is very hard not to like nice people. Why do you think Kurumi is so popular? 'coz she is nice! The fact she is frozen now surprises me, could wouldn't her warm heart melt the frozenness? Yet I do like practicing spells." Sarah said.

Does she blame her for that? Of course not! Actually why would Sarah think that it was a blaming to her, Tiffany was just surprised to know about her favourite teacher.

She laughed when Sarah said that Kurumi's warm heart could melt the frowziness. "I was shocked too when I knew that she was frozen,"she replied."I just hope that she would be fine and get unfrozen as soon as possible. Why don't you go and visit her then?"she asked.

"I do too! I would visit her if I were allowed into the observation ward. I want to hug her and give her a brownie - she is so sweet to all of us. You are so lucky you have had time to be with her, I have her sixth and seventh years and that is it, you have had her for the past 3 years!" Sarah said. Sarah handed both Emma and Tiffany her Birthday invitation. She really hoped some one would be there.

Tiffany chuckled. She was surprised to see that there were actually some students like Sarah who liked a specific professor so much and...As for her, she liked them all,equally.

"Silly you, you still get years to go till your graduation so you still have plenty of time meeting her,"she replied."But for me, I only have four more years to go."she exclaimed.

OOC: Tiffany would definitely go there
