Felicity would've hugged Bray to her if Eve hadn't come. Her gaze flicked quickly to Bradyn, and she placed him on her lap. "This cat? Oh, I'm watching him for a friend." She grinned and pet him hoping he would play along.
"So what's up with you Eve? Been doing anything interesting lately?" Fay fidgeted slightly, hoping a teacher wouldn't come. Well, so much for her day starting out boring.
(And mine is so short xD)

Evette snorted. "I'm not stupid, you know. He's obviously an animagus. And a rude one at that. He never told me his name...though I expect you know, Felicity" She used her friend's full name, knowing she would hate it.
"And yes, I did do something interesting today. Mandrakes in Herbology. They're so fascinating! I really don't see why so many people find it boring..." Eve muttered something in French about how people do not appreciate nature enough.

Bray frowned when Eve had obviously seen him change. He was just getting comfortable, too. What 15 year old boy would not enjoy laying in a girls lap for a while, and even being petted too? Crawling off he quickly changed back and moved to sit back against the tree. "Mandrakes are vile little creatures, caught between the life of shrubbery and a mammal. They're not boring, but I definitely do not like them." He said when he looked back down at his book. Bray decided not to introduce himself, just to annoy the girl more.
Besides, she looked about his age and it would be impossible for them not to have met within 5 years, the girl obviously had a terrible memory. Looking back down at his book, he scowled at the picture of a mandrake as if that would help him learn it faster.

Fay's face slowly slid into a pout as Bray changed back. "I liked your animagus form." She quickly switched her gaze to Eve, then back to Bradyn. Felicity did this cycle a few times, before a grin came over her. "You two should work together." She grabbed Eve's hand and practically dragged her over to the tree. "Eve loves Herbology, and you seem to hate it. So you can work together." She grinned, please with herself.
Felicity layed down in the grass and picked up her book again. "And I'm going to lounge around and brush up on my beatin' skills." She giggled and flipped open her book. Oh what fun she would have during matches.

Eve's book flew up in the air as she was dragged toward the boy. Propping herself up next to him, she shot Fay a disgusted look. "Elle est agaçante" Evette muttered irritably and looked up at the boy. "So you need help? If you don't, just say the word."
The girl flipped open her book and found a page on Mandrakes she had bookmarked. She had found this page very interesting as it was packed with loads of information. Eve held it up so he could see. "Is this a good place to start?"

Bradyn winked a bit at Fay. "I like it, I just wish it were more.. manly." After Fay's little episode about them having a study party, he sighed. He decided it was best not tell Shay that his tutor needed to be schooled in Herbology. But Fay did seem enthusiastic about this, so Bray decided that he'd just roll with it. Even though neither of them really wanted to, it's not like it would hurt him to study for Herbology.
Bray quickly looked over the homework he hadn't done for the mandrakes. "It's pretty simple.. what medicine is made from mandrake root.. what does it heal.. what happens if you hear a mandrake cry directly.. I don't think I need help, I just need work ethic."

Felicity grinned as she peeked out from behind her book. "Oh don't be such a sourbutt Eve. You love Herbology, what's just helping another person with it?" She didn't wait for Eve to answer her back as she looked back down at her book. "Now that that's settled, can you two be quiet please? I'm trying to read. And you're really distracting me with all of this jabber."
Fay rested her head on her robe, which she was actually supposed to be wearing but just chose to blow it off. Her eyes scanned the pages as she shifted her body, pretending to do moves said in the book.

Eve nodded at the boy and settled next to Fay. She studied the page in front of her, but found she could not concentrate. Sighing, Evette flipped onto her back and stared at the sky. "Anything to do today?" she asked to no one in particular.

Bray noticed how since the girl showed up the tension seemed to grow between everyone and now it reached the ultimate phase; silence. Bray leaned back against the tree and fiddled with his wand a bit. "By the way, I guess I did forget to introduce myself. Bradyn Reed, that's be, and you are?" He said, trying to break the silence. Silence made him bored, and when he was bored random things popped out.
Bray frowned a bit and stole Fay's book to get her to look and talk to someone else besides it. "How can you read about Quidditch? Training on your broom would surely be more helpful." Hopefully he'd try to get the conversation going again. Remembering the other girl, he quickly turned to her. "Do you like Quidditch? What position do you usually play?"

Ash yawned loudly as he walked down to the lake. It had been a long time since he had been here, and he really missed it. Plus, he needed some time away from the pressures of life. Hearing voices, he stepped closer to investigate, he saw Bradyn, along with Felicity, and a Hufflepuff (who Ash didn't know) who seemed to be discussing his favorite sport of all time. Quidditch. Ashton walked over towards the group. "Hey Bray, hey Felicity. Discussing Quidditch are we?" he asked with a smile. "That's good. The official team practices start soon."

Felicity gasped and sat up quickly. "Hey, give it back Bray." She snatched it out of his hands and glared at him. "And for your information this book has a lot of awesome techniques. If we were on the field I would totally beat you with my bludger skills." Fay stuck her tongue out at him.
Ash seemed to come out of no where, but she wasn't complaining. Felicity grinned at the captain. "Ready and waiting for the practices. Can't wait to try out what this books says." She held it up for his inspection.

Ash laughed. "Hey you two. We're a team remember? There's no 'My skills are better than yours' okay? You're both great players. Just don't let it get to your head. And Felicity? Bray's right, the book may have alot of good information, but the best way to learn, is through experience." Ash took a deep breath, "Okay, so now that I'm done with that little rant, what are guys up to?" he asked, then promptly changed to his animagus form of a white tiger. Giving a yawn, he flopped down on the bank just like any normal tiger would.

Bray rolled his eyes at Fay. "Just because some Quidditch champion can do those techniques doesn't mean you can.." He would've shot back that Bludger always beats Keeper but then Ash came and he decided against it. He'd rather not be the one to be yelled at. "Ash the peace-keeper, coming to save the day! ..Or eat people." He added when Ash just had to show off his animagus.
But Bray wasn't going to be a poser and change too, since he enjoyed talking to people rather than just sitting on them. "And I was studying, but who wants to study mandrakes with someone who's talking about Quidditch!" Bray really needed to work on his work ethic, he got distracted way too much.

Felicity gasped as Ash turned into a tiger. Suddenly, a big grin stretched around her face and she wrapped her arms around Ash's neck. "Big. White. Fluffy. Tiger. Ash, your animagus is so fluffy I love it." Yea, only Fay hugs a tiger.
She let go of Ash after a while and glanced over to Bray. "Possibly a person would want to study mandrakes because they might possibly fail herbology. But hey, what do I know?" Fay giggled and stuck her tongue out at Bray. Felicity could afford to tease him, she was passing the class.

Eve smiled as Bradyn finally introduced himself. "Evette Rockwood. Pleased to meet you, Bradyn" she said, nodding slightly toward him. "And yes, I do like Quidditch. My position is official cheerleader for Fay" Evette laughed and pushed her friend gently.
A boy named Ash soon appeared and Eve turned around. "Hel-" but she was cut off by him turning into an animagus "-lo" the girl murmured, quite surprised to find a white tiger sitting near her. Evette laughed when Fay hugged him and plopped down next to the tiger. "Evette Rockwood if you wanted to know." She slid her hand underneath his paw in a form of a handshake, but ended up laughing and lying down again. "Today's been quite interesting so far."
