Shadow shrugged, "I was bored so I came in here. Leon was already in here being sad with butterflies" She said groaning as another butterfly landed on her head. She shook her head and it flew off again.

"Oh! Why were you in here Leon? " Brook asked, out of curiosity. As Brook waited (again) for an answer she opened up "The Shining" and started reading. As she started she found out that it kept you in a lot of suspense, which she loved!
(Sorry Brook is asking so many questions)

Leon smiled as another one of Shadow's lame come-backs shot from her mouth. Not really listening to the rest of her answer, he watched as her kitten swatted and hissed at about ten butterflies that flitted around it's nose and tail, annoying the socks off of him. Grinning with amusement, Leon tuned in to the conversation just in time to here Brook's question.
"Same as Sahdow- i was bored and the door showed itself, so i came in. The butterflies are here because at the time i was thinking about my friend Flo who loves the things, and the books becuase i was also thinking about my favourite book," Leon pointed at the hard-cover in his hands before carrying on. "And this chair here you have probably seen- the one in the Common Room, right beside the fire and window. My favourite one as it is so comfy!" Leon half-smiled at Brook, then asked her the question she had asked him.

"Well, usually I would be sleeping in on a day like this, a lot of other people probably would ( and were) too. But I couldn't sleep and I had nothing to do so I just started walking around. And then before I noticed it a shiny door appeared and out of my pure curiosity I opened it."
Suprisingly Brook was glad all this happened, otherwise she would probably still be wandering around the castle.

Shadow whistled and then said "Sanity lost!" As soon as she said that her kitten looked at Shadow and started purring as the kitten sat on the arm of the chair. Shadow smiled and stroked her lovingly.
Shadow had started to grow uncomfortable as the two ravenclaws talked. She didn't like being this social with anyone. She liked being on her own more. She coughed and the butterflies dissapeared again. They had groan quite annoying to her. "Sorry but they get on my nerves" She mumbled explaining why she had made the butterflies go away.

"Oh, it's okay! I don't mind." Brook replied as she heard Shadow mumble that the butterflies were bothering her. She hoped Leon didn't mind either though. Brook was more of a person who would compromise rather than "majority rules", so basically she wants everyone to win, not just herself, even if the outcome wasn't to her own advantage.

Leon nodded, understanding Shadow's reaction. However, with a little thought he made just two of the little butterflies appear again- one amazingly electric blue one, and another orange one with tiny black spots. As they rested on one of his hands, he politley asked Shadow if she minded the two creatures. His impression of Shadow was that she was self-centred and annoying, but now, although it had only changed by a little bit, he saw her more as someone who talked when they wanted, acted when they wanted, and did what they wanted, though politely. Leon smiled at the two girls, then asked them nicely about what they enjoyed best at school.
“My favourite thing to do is Quidditch- and art, if it counts. How about you?” He asked them.

Shadow watched the two butterflies. "I don't mind them two" She said knowing there would be no point to act how she usually does. Besides there wasn't much of a threat to deal with. And no was no crowd to humiliate them. No point for. Shadow only acts they way she does to get pleasure out of other people's pain. Something that Shadow liked to do... a lot.
"I love Quidditch. And playing my guitar in an empty classroom. I love guitar despite it being muggle" She sighed. Shadow liked a lot of things that were muggle even though she was a pure blood.

"I like to do many things at this school, but my four favorites are reading and going to both Charms and Transfiguration, and I like Quidditch!" said Brook. She loved changing, moving, and recreating things. She looked at the twp pretty butterflies, an orange with black spots and an electric blue one. They flew around as though they might never stop. She thought about how she had said she liked Quidditch, she liked flying the most! She felt free when she flew and had a whole lot of fun.

Leon watched with a smile as both girls spoke. Even talking about what they liked to do changed their moods- Shadow with her guitar and Brook with her broom. Smiling, he spoke slowly.
"Your musical i guess then Shadow- same as my sister, she has an excellent voice. Maybe you should meet u-"
Leon stopped short. His sister had just joined Hogwarts after a long illness, and he gathered already that Shadow would hate her cheeriness. Thinking quickly, he brought a chocolate into his hand, taking a hasty bite.

After answering Leon's question she noticed him smile, wondering what weird thing could be going in his head now she heard saying somehting to Shadow about how she should meet his sister, then stopping before he even got to her name and taking a bite of some chocolate that had just appeared in his hand. She thought about how all of them had eneded up here at the same time and wondered what time it was when she found a watch on her arm. eleven o'clock, it read. Wow she thought, I have already been here a little longer than an hour.

Shadow scoffed. "I wouldn't want to meet your sister anyway. She might have some of that illness that she suffered from. I might catch it" She sneered. Shadow knew a lot about what had happened to people. After all people gossip. And for some strange reason, people gossip with her. And this piece of information had been told to her just recently that Leon's sister had returned to Hogwarts recently after an illness.
"Besides I have a good voice myself and I don't need another singer in my band" She said hating the fact tht she was giving personal information about herself. She even hated telling people that she could play guitar. She was meant to hate muggle things. It's what you get for living muggles most of your life though.

Leon looked at Shadow again. Just like a normal Slythie- making lame comebacks. Trying to smile, he laughed off her lame joke.
"My sister is completley cured actually. Though i wouldn't joke about it. She's been stuck in bed for three months every two years, with major pain and not able to do anything." Leon's eyes narrowed. "So you can stop talking about her now."
Smiling again, Leon turned to Brook, talking in a happier tone. "So, how do you find Professor Snape?" He ignored Shadow completley, tuning in only on Brook and the two butterflies. The halloween decorated one was now perched on Brook's dark head, while the other sat on her knee. Smiling, Leon thought of another butterfly, a pure white one with a pinkish fleck in the center of one wing. It appeared beside the blue one on Brook's knee, and fluttered to her book.

As Brook heard Shadow say the stuff about Leon's sister and how she didn't need anybody else in her band she figured tht Shadow didn't like talking to a lot of people about herself. Brook found this a little odd because most Slytherin's loved to gloat about themselves.

Shadow rolled her eyes as she thought about how she wanted those butterflies dead. The next thing she knew the butterlfies were dying and dissapearing. Shadow laughed coldy before picking up a very old book and started reading it. The title was 'Death' and was written in blood red letting on the black book.
She laughed at a couple of pages as she read it silently. She came to a page and a small tear fell from her eye and onto the the page. She blinked quickly and wiped it away, hoping that the two Ravenclaws didn't see this.

As Brook heard Leon ask what she thought about Pro. Snape she wondered if she should tell him her completemthought because Shadow was in here and she might tell him what she says, but then again she may not.
Brook decided to tell him. ''I think he is an old fool. He doesn't even teach us anything. All he does is tell us to make something and then takes points away from all the houses, except for Slytherin, which is favoritism!"
Brook thought she went a little overboard on this, but thought she wasn't even telling half the truth in another way.
(Sorry Brook didn't read your reply thoroughly and she didn't see the question Leon asked her until just now.)

Leon nodded at Brook's answer, then, without looking at Shadow, made the butterflies appear once again, as beautiful and graceful as ever. They fluttered onto his hands, cleaning their wings carefully. Leon answered Brook with a smile.
"Yeah he does- but you're wrong about one thing i think. He does teach us things, and we do learn a lot usually. Well, i do anyway. His style of teaching is odd- learn and be accepted, unless your a Slytherin which is learn and be rewarded. Or, it's don't learn and be punished. Though he is a little unfair- that i agree with. And he needs a hair wash as well..." Leon smiled. Snape's slimey, greasy hair was disgusting.

Shadow shrugged as the butterflies appearing again. "Sanity found" She said loudly and ker kitten jumped off Shadow's lap and started chasing the butterflies. "I must admitt Snape's way of teaching is fair. I also agree with his hair needing a wash, but you shouldn't judge on looks alone" Shadow said as she read her book not looking up.

Brook listened to these answers and thought about how Leon said that he taught us things. She didn't remember him ever helping her on anything except losing house ponts. "How does he teach you anything? I have to read the hole potions book just to know what he is talking about."

Leon nodded. “That’s often true- sometimes he doesn’t teach us anything. But I always learn a new potion in nearly every lesson. I don’t know- maybe you haven’t adjusted to his way of teaching! Anyway, who is your favourite teacher?” Leon waited patiently for an answer, thinking about his own. Who could his be? Not Flitwick- he was a little too…odd. He thought maybe Professor McGonagall, but she was often a little too strict. While waiting for Brook or Shadow to answer, he brought up an odd muggle ‘Gameboy’ which his mother had once bought for him.
