One more little thing

[Evanna Caladine]

Eva sat leaning over a letter she was writing. Everythign was very interesting today. A new school, a new life. She sighed. She was dying to meet some people at this place.

[Marley]

"Your wish is my command," drawled Marley as she walked over and plunked down. She was dressed in baggy blue jeans, a tight neon green tank-top and her checkerboard shoes.

She grinned, "Hey, you look like you could use a friend. I'm Marley, pleased to meet you. Hope you don't mind if I join you. Some people find me annoying, though I just call it eccentric."

She reached her hand out in case the other girl wanted to shake.

[Evanna Caladine]

Eva looked up from her letter to an old friend. "Oh... hi." She shook the girls hand. "I'm Evanna. And I can definately use some friends."

[Marley]

"Evanna, that's a pretty name, and hey, I can always use some new friends too. Are you new here? Have you been sorted yet? I still haven't been sorted. I'm waiting for the right time," said Marley, grinning.

"So, Evanna, do you have any nicknames you like to be called? You can call me Marl or Ley, if you like. I answer to pretty much anything, although 'hey you' is a little undignified, but still."

[Evanna Caladine]

She laughed. "People mostly call me Eva if they call me a nickname. I've been sorted thought, I'm in Slytherin." She smirked and ran a hand through her dark hair.

[Marley]

"Slytherin, nice. I have some friends in there. My half-sister's name is Nnhy. If you run across her, you should say hi, she is.... an interesting character," said Marley.

[Evanna Caladine]

Eva laughed. "I shall have to say hello then!"

[Marley]

"She left the school for a little while, she's off.... experimenting. I think she's visiting later this week," said Marley as she reached over into her bag to pull out a deck of cards. As she did, a fuzzy black streak shot out of the bag and onto the table. When if finally stood still, one could see that it was a small, lithe black squirrel, chewing on an almond in its paws.

"Oh, heh, this is Harley, my friend. He lost his family when his tree was taken down. He stays with me now," explained Marley, and she reached over to stroke the little black figure.

[Evanna Caladine]

"Oh." She mused and stuck a hand out to the little creature. "Hello mate."
