katrina vanessa( tag: tallia yallex ) katrina ran down the corridors, her bag banging against her hip and her books crushing her bones as it did. she struggled to keep her bag on her shoulder before she nearly tripped over a lifted carpet and down, down she went with a bang. she groaned and struggled to grab all her books, stuffing them all back into her bag. her ink bottle had exploded, spilling ink everywhere and onto her robes and her books. kat sighed and pulled out her wand hurriedly, trying to grab everything before the lunch bell rang. she had wanted to be the first in the history of magic room to quickly hand in her assignment on boedrick the bald which happened to be about a foot longer then professor binns had asked for. not that she thought he would mind, since he probably had at least one student every year who wanted to get ahead. especially since it wasn't due till next monday.
katrina twirled her wand in her fingertips and tucked it in the messy bun on the back of her head to keep out of her way as she swung her bag back onto her shoulders. some sweet auburn tendrils snuck loose from her bun and framed her face which was now pink with exhaustion. she had had to run up two flights of stairs, nearly forgetting about the vanishing step until the last minute and dashing down the corridor.
kat finally made it to the classroom and walked in. she found it to be empty except for professor binns who was writing a few things down on the chalkboard and mumbling in his low, baritone voice to himself. kat slipped through the door and closed it behind her. she cleared her throat loudly, catching him off guard. "yes, miss naylor?" he said, utterly surprised to see someone in his classroom at the beginning of a lunch period. kat flushed a little from the awkwardness of the situation, since he was kind of... a ghost... and she was here for some random reason. "er... sorry to disturb you, professor.. i've just come to hand in my assignment early." she said, pulling out the roll of parchment from her bag and placing it on his desk.
"ah, right then. why don't you take a seat and i can grade it right now, nixon?" he suggested. kat nodded meekly and sat at in a seat right by the door, toying with her thumbs as professor binns began to read it over.

Tallia walked down the corridor slowly, peering into all the classrooms as she did. It was interesting to see certain classroom empty, without any interrupting students, obnoxious teachers proving a student wrong, or the ongoing catastrophes that seemed to happen all day long.
She smiled to herself as she thought of how lucky she was to be going to such a great school, although this school had a million mysteries left unsolved, even after the Famous Harry Potter defeated Lord Voldermort. Immediately she cursed herself for thinking about it, although he was long gone it wasn't exactly right talking about him. Huffing air out of her mouth she wondered what she was going to do this period. She had already eaten and done the homework she hadn't finished the night before, so she had absolutely nothing to do.
She continued down the hallway when she saw Professor Binns sitting at his desk, she smiled as she walked on by when she thought noticed Katrina's blonde-ish hair. Taking a step backwards her presumptions were correct, and it was indeed Katrina. Walking closer to the door, she held the doorknob and looked in. It was just her and the teacher.
"Katrina!" Tallia whispered loudly, trying to get her attention. What in the world was she doing there at lunch time, But of course this was Katrina she was talking about.

katrina vanessahow to choose who to be kat ran her fingers over the mahogany desk, sighing as she waited patiently for the professor to finish. though, it only looked like he had gone through about half of her work. kat wanted to be an auror, and even though history of magic wasn't needed in those fields, she still wanted to do it. she wanted to know as much as there was to know about the wizarding world. even being a pureblood witch, raised using magic and all that, she was still kind of behind when it came to it. she knew that a lot of purebloods thought they knew everything there was to know about the magical world, but kat wasn't nearly there yet. and she knew she didn't know everything about the wizarding world. nor did she think she ever would.
it was only about five minutes into the corrections did she see professor binns finally mark something down on the bottom of the page and looked up at kat. "you may go if you wish, miss lennox." he said, floating up and out of the classroom. probably to the staff room to haunt some of the other teachers. kat was about to get up when she heard someone hiss something behind her and spun her head around, her auburn hair whipping her face as she smiled a small smile at the sight of the girl framed in the doorway.
"one moment." she said quickly, taking the parchment and giving it a once over. there was only one red mark, and that was on the bottom. it was a big fat O and kat beamed at the paper before stuffing it away in her bag and hopping out of the classroom to join tallia. "hey, tallia! what's up?" she said cheerfully, tucking a few whisps of auburn hair behind her ear, her eyes flashing a vibrant blue before returning to their natural violet.

Waiting patiently at the door, Tallia began clicking her tongue. It was one of those small things that could keep her occupied for hours. Standing there, she looked down at her shoes. There were larges specks of mud on them, making them look uglier than they actually were. Pulling out her wand she cast a spell to remove it, and quick. Putting her wand back into her bag she looked up and saw Katrina who was now getting up, and placed her piece of parchment into her bag.
“Hey you, nothing really. I don’t have anything to do… hey, what were you doing in the classroom. At lunch time. When you not supposed to be doing work?” Tallia asked Katrina suspiciously. Knowing Katrina she was probably handing in something before class started, or checking out her mark, trying to find a way to make it as perfect as possible.
It was funny, these two were never ever really close, before they were enemies, Tallia hated Katrina for her perky ways, how perfect she was, how she got everything she ever wanted, but of course that was before she met her. When she actually talked to her she realized she was probably one of the most generous people she’s ever met. Pushing that thought out of her head, she preferred to remember the good instead of the bad, she brought her attention back to Katrina.
Pushing the hair out her face she revealed a smile. “So seriously what were doing. I hope you didn’t get detention, you really don’t seem like that type.” Tallia explained, taking out her wand and twirling it between her slender finger. She always did this when she didn’t have much to say, it was either this or clicking her tongue.

katrina vanessasay everything you didn't say kat laughed, for some reason, some people just knew what kat was doing. it was like she was such an open book that everyone liked to read. well, not everyone of course, but some people. she even remembered when tallia, if she had seen kat, would hex her from behind and kat would do the same. but that was a long time ago. when they were in their third year, and that had been three years ago. it doesn't do well to linger on the past and forget about the future, and how it can be changed, so the two sort of put it behind them. no, they're not best friends now, they haven't totally gotten over it, but they don't want one another to get hurt and stuff.
"i just finished the homework paper on that boedrick the bald this morning, so i just wanted to... you know, hand it in before i lost it." she said, smiling sheepishly, finally realizing how stupid that sounded. "i was just waiting for him to mark it is all - have you ever noticed that he can never get anyone's name right?" she asked tallia, in an attempt to a change of subject. "i mean, he'll call me things like... nixon and naylor and... i think in my first year he called me o'connor.." she said, giggling a little behind her hand at the thought. she could bet about fifty bucks he had only once gotten someone's name right. and that was probably a hundred years ago, or something.
kat smiled, "detention? who, me?" she said, mocking gasping. kat had only gotten detention once in her life, and that was when christiana had told her to let loose for once in her life. and that didn't turn out too well, so she had held against letting loose like that for a while.

TALLIA yallexTallia listened as Katrina explained her situation. “Right. Of course, handing something in early. I should have know.” Tallia teased, as she poked her arm. “What I’d really like to know is, have you ever handed something in late? Or is that a taboo in your book or something?” She laughed. She wasn’t exactly mocking her, but it was somewhat along those lines. Some days they had a love-hate relationship, and others they were really good friends. On the whole they were good friends.
Turning back to Katrina she laughed “I know, he called my Nalex on minute and then Frederick the next. How old is he anyways, like a thousand years old or something, ‘cause you can’t blame him though, having to keep track of all those students over the years.” she shrugged, smoothing out her shirt, and ruffling her hair. “I really wonder if he’s ever gotten anyone’s name correct, but who knows… I bet he hasn’t.” Tallia giggled, and clamped her hand to her mouth before anyone could hear her. Her laugh was one of those laughs that when you hear it you can’t help but laugh, it wasn’t cute at all, it was loud and sometimes it was accompanied by a snort.
Quickly she cleared her throat and tried to keep herself from laughing. “Yes, detention you. I bet you must have gotten it a few times, no one just not gets it… I mean I’ve gotten it a couple of times.. Mostly for erm.. Things I did to… certain people…” Tallia trailed off, she really hated dwelling in the past, but sometimes it just came up, but they did their best to avoid it. They were over it, pushed to the back of their brains… well most of the times. Tallia ruffled her hair, another annoying tick she had, and smoothed out her skirt she racked around he brain to find something else to talk about. “So.. You like or hate anybody this year?”
Realizing her wand was still in her hand she slipped in into the space between her skirt and her stockings, she really wasn’t in the mood to open her pack, put it in and close it again. A very long process that took forever, or so she thought. [/font][/center]

katrina vanessacash, clothes diamond rings kat smiled sheepishly and blushed. it was a habit of hers, when someone caught her doing something she knew she should try not to do. no one really called her a suck-up since she wasn't always nice to all the teachers, because she did have her own opinions and everything, but they did consider her an overachiever sometimes. kat found it all very amusing, especially because she didn't really care, nor did she put a lot of time into her work. that is, until she kept on finding more and more interesting information to add into her assignment or project. and then it would go on forever, and then she'd re-write it, making it look neat and proper. so on the whole, the homework process she went through week after week took her about three hours or more. sometimes less, if it was something as easy as practicing a charm. her strongest point was charms and transfiguration, and her weakest link had to be history of magic and divination. she found divination to be a waste of time, but never really said it to anyone.
"i think he died about two centuries ago." kat said, thoughtfully trying to suppress her giggles, "he like... went to sleep and was killed, and then woke up and just glided off to class... i swear, he'll never stop boring hogwarts students. ever." she said, rolling her eyes at the thought of professor binns, about a thousand years into the future, teaching bored-out-of-their-mind students, all falling asleep. "true... but you'd think he'd get them eventually." she said, smirking as she glanced back into the classroom. professor binns hadn't returned, thankfully.
kat grinned, "well, i got a detention once... but that was like... year two. old school. but that was it." she said, shrugging, "it was no big deal. but... yeah, detention wasn't so horrible either." she added with a smile. there was a small awkward silence between the two, but it wasn't unheard of. it happens often, especially since they had their history and everything... but it wasn't like people try. kat cleared her throat, "there's still that stupid paxton ryder." she spat, glancing down at her shoes. the mere mention of paxton made her grimace. "i don't get it - why the bloody hell does everyone like him? he's just so... so cocky and... and he's an idiot!" she rolled her eyes, "i'll bet he didn't even pass his OWLS." she rolled her eyes at the thought.

TALLIA yallexTallia watched her reacting to what she said fro a little while, then turned her head around and smiled. Tallia wondered where the other students where, but of course they were probably outside or in the great hall. There aren’t many people who go to the classrooms at lunch. It occurred to Tallia that she got distracted, easily. Laughing to herself she turned to face Katrina, just before she said something.
“Ahh.” She answered thoughtfully “Yeah, well he’s still really old.” Tallia added quietly, laughing slightly. “Gosh that’s a pretty boring class but… you can’t do anything about it…” She thought aloud. Tallia looked behind her and realized they were still in front of Professors Binns classroom. Quickly she peered into the classroom to see that Professor Binns was thankfully not in the classroom, thank goodness.
“Oh! So you’ve actually had detention. Well then congrats. We’re more alike than I though.” Tallia grinned, as she pulled her wand out and began twirling it again. It was just another entertaining thing she liked to do when she had nothing much to say,. “I may not have been horrible for you, but it really depends on which teacher you get.” Tallia winked, and shivered, her past experiences with detention weren’t as pleasant as Katrina’s.
“Ha!” She laughed out loud. Paxton, one of the schools many playboys. He was cocky, obnoxious, but very cute nonetheless. Tallia actually had a small crush on him before, but his terrible personality got in the way, that’s probably why he never has a girlfriend. “He’s one of the most idiotic people I’ve ever met… but you seem to love to hate him.” Tallia teased, although she knew she was entering dangerous grounds by saying that.

katrina vanessacash, clothes diamond rings kat whipped out her wand at that last comment. it wasn't that she actually wanted to hurt tallia, she just wanted her to take that back, is all. "take - that - back." she said as her wand found tallia's neck. her eyes flashed blood red, she was positively seething right now. she hated when people always assumed she actually liked him because she hated him so much. reverse psychology, most likely. who knew that so many hogwarts students knew about it? and whoever was teaching them as in for a little surprise visit from miss o'neil. she sighed and lowered her wand, smirking. she knew she had caught tallia by a slight surprise, but she wasn't scared out of her skin or anything. kat tucked it back in her hair and took a few deep breaths. talking about paxton or arguing with him always got her pumped up. but not always in a good way. luke often suggested she argue with him before every quidditch match, but she didn't want to make herself throw the quaffle at him instead of at her teammates.
she rolled her eyes, smiling slightly at tallia. "sorry about that, but i think everyone in this school knows that you can never mess with katrina vanessa." she said, flicking some hair over her shoulder and striking a random, model post. she grinned and burst out laughing. strange what mood swings could do to this girl.
