Sure, Brooke absolutely loved people. She loved messing with them, talking with and about them, partying with them. But sometimes people annoyed her and sometimes she wanted to be alone and not to smile. I am the greatest actress ever born. She thought to herself as she looked around the room, she could smile and be happy and no one would know that she had just had a fight with her best friend or broken up with her boyfriend or that her wrist had been sprained while doing a back handspring. It was an art really it was, an art that she had always known but had perfected through time and experience. She closed her eyes and leaned back against the wall ignoring the birds as they flew around her, it had been a long day.

Violet walked up to the Owlery, intending to send her barn owl, Aphrodite, home with a letter to her dad, when Violet saw a fifth year Gryffindor leaned up against the wall with her eyes closed. Violet pushed her long brown hair out of her face, and, before she could stop herself, she said "Are you alright?"

This school was defintley a lot different from the one she just transferred from so Jewels was becoming very nervous. With every corrider and every hallway the school seemed to grow in size. Finally Jewels made her way up to the Owlery. Walking in she saw two girls already there. "Um, hello." Jewels said as she walked in. Taking a prewritten letter from her back pocket Jewels looked for an owl to send it to her friend Hal in MI.

Pat walked into the Owlery and let out an intricate whistle to her personal owl Hooters. She had sent her up when she arrived and hadn't gotten a chance to see her yet. Looking around she saw some other girls already in the tower. "Oh, hi. I didn't see you there." Her Chestnut colored owl took that moment to come down and perched on her arm. Pat made some cooing and clicking sounds as if talking to the bird while she stroked it feathers.

When another person walked in Jewels was just about to send her letter. Turning around at the distraction she saw another Gryffindor walk in. "Hey!" Jewels said, giving a smile, "Cute owl!" Then she turned back to her owl and turned back. Maybe she wouldn't send the letter quite yet....she had been gone for only a week. After two weeks she would send a letter to Hal. Still deciding she stayed in the Owlery and observed the people.

"Thanks! She was my birthday present a few years back." Pat pulled a treat out of her pocket and gave it to the bird. "I wanted to make sure she was liking her new home. I wish I could keep her in my dorm room. Is that yours?" She asked as she pointed to the owl behind the girl.

"Well technically she's not mine but then again she is. It's kind of a long story." Jewels looked at the owl. She was a gift, then not a gift. Then a gift again. Than not a gift again. It was very confusing. "So, new home? Are you new this year or is the owl new to the school this year?" Jewels curiosity went up, maybe she wasn't the only new kid here after all!

"Yeah, I'm new. I just transfered here. Well, technically I was here for a bit my first year but then I've been gone ever since." Pat looked and saw she was in Gryffindor too. "Wait, are you new here too?" It wouldn't make sense for her not to know that Pat was new unless she hadn't been around long either.

Jewels relaxed a bunch, so she wasn't the only new person! "Yeah I'm new, I also transferred but this is my first time ever here," Jewels gave a nervous laugh, "and its huge! My old school was about half the size of this if not smaller!" Jewels then took the letter from her pocket and gave it to the owl to send. The letter needed to be sent. Turning back to Pat after that quick break she asked, "So what school were you at before?"

"Durmstrang. It was a bit smaller than Hogwarts, and it had all the issues with the Headmaster and all but it was a good school. Some of the professors were a bit much too. But they were more on the practical application as opposed to writing on parchment which I loved. I'm gonna miss it. Where was your school?" She attached a small note to her friend to Hooter's leg while she was talking. Giving him a final ruffling of her feathers, Pat stretched out her hand and she soared into the air.

Durmstrang......it sounded so familiar! Oh yeah, Jewels knew of that school! She had almost gone there when her mom hd been deciding what schools to go to. "I went to a small private school called Magic International somewhere here in England but to be honest, I forget where." Jewels laughed at that. She had gone to that school for a while and had no idea whereabouts it was located, "So, sending a letter to family or friends? If you don't mind me asking that is."

"Just a quick note to my best friend. I told him I'd let him know when I got here and all. I'll write a better letter once I settle in and actually have some news to tell him above the color of my bed curtains. You doing the same or writing home?" Pat had no reason to write home yet. Her parents would assume she'd arrived unless the headmistress sent home a letter saying she didn't arrive.

"I don't even know where "home" is at the moment," Jewels chuckled to herself, " My mom likes to travel while I'm gone...somewhere. I never know until she picks me up at the train station. I'm writing to my friend Hal, he's still at my old school." Jewels wondered if he would even write back. He was a prefect at the other school who was probably busy doing other things.

"Oh wow. That must be exciting. Have you been all over the world? I've had the same house for my whole life. Although I guess I've had two. My parents bought up another estate when we moved for my father's job. When he was transfered back to London they decided to keep it." She paused a moment then added, "I'm Pat by the way."

"I wish," Jewels shrugged, "It seems as though the only times a trip is afforable is when I'm away at school so only my mom can go. Rather annoying sometimes. I'll come home from school and there she is in a hula skirt or a beret bursting to make me jelous," Jewels paused to breath then went on, "Oh! And I'm Jewels by the way!"
