It was easier not to get worked up when she only focused on one person and Eden was an excellent person for that. In the little time they'd been at Hogwarts, her best friend seemed to have grown so much and become much more confident, while Clara had NOT and she envied her for that, but there was something so ... relaxing about being around that she didn't mind.
"Nice. Probably are, yeah," she allowed. Then she shot LOOKS at her before saying, "but they're still HERE ... ALL of them ... in one no-so-big space ..... That's the problem here." Did Eden understand that? She should do. Shed' explained it so many times before. "And I'm not nervous," she muttered. She didn't GET nervous.
Stressed ... yes, but certainly not nervous.
............... Voices. Louder voice.
Now it was time to focus on the rest of the room again. Heh.
She swivelled round to face the woman speaking while remaining with her back leaning against Eden's chair. Clara listened and took everything in, but didn't engage in any of the cheering. That wasn't her thing ..... it was much too loud for one ... and she was busy thinking of all the people here that she could possibly be paired with. She only really knew a few people by name. Maddie. Eden. Gabe. Layla. It couldn't go that badly, could it?
Clara was such a dear. Eden adored her so much. She was SO glad she was roomies with her because Clara helped her so much in SO many ways and UGH. Eden was grateful. She would show how grateful as much as she could--she would do anything for Clara. And there were only a few people that Eden counted as that close of friends.
SIGH.
"I'm sorry. I'm lousy at understanding what it's like--" She said softly, but she kept a grip on Clara's hand, because she wanted to be comforting towards her. Poor dear. Sure, she didn't know everything about CLara--but that was what friendship was about, right? Getting to know someone on a deeper level.
Some woman came in...and Eden siiiighed. Couldn't the meetng START already?
SPOILER!!: cuuuutie Maddie

And it looked like they were getting started which was good. The sooner they started, the sooner the second year could get back to doing things that interested her. Things that weren't house meetings.
Points. Yeah, Maddie didn't care about points as they didn't accurately reflect how awesome she was at stuff. JUST because you didn't go crazy over points DIDN'T mean you weren't smart or capable. That's how SHE saw it, anyway. The part that DID interest her was the whole revealing who her comrade would be. She liked the word comrade WAY better than the word buddy and hopefully she got a good one. Expectant looks for you, Kitridge. Let's hear this list.
SIGH.
And Eden's fears were realized.
"So...it is boring then." Ugh. She gave Maddie a pouty look but squirmed in her spot on the couch.
'If YOU leave, then I am, too--" THere. Maddie was so smart and stuff--if she thought it was okay to ditch, then so did EDEN. HEH!

"Good evening girls." Looking down at his watch Leo gave a little small sigh of relief when the door to the common roomed and revealed the arrival of Tiara. At some point he’d have to thank Annie for assigning Tiara to help him out with the eagles.
When she stepped up beside him Leo responded.
"Good evening to you too Tiara! We might as well get this show on the road. The stragglers can trickle in and we’ll post the mentoring pairs on the notice board after the meeting is over for those who weren’t able to attend." As Tiara got everyone’s attention Leo accepted the piece of parchment from her and refreshed his memory of the pairs they had decided on.
Taking over from Tiara he looked out at the assembled eagles smiling broadly
"You guys are a great group of eagles and I hope these pairings will encourage you all to bond even more with your peers and to get to know them better. The first eagle comrade pairing is Lincoln Darcy and Gabriel Banner." He paused.
"The second is Maddie Cooper and Coral-Bay Aldrich."
He quieted to let the first pairs meet up.
Ooc: I'll announce the rest of the pairs in my next post. Stay tuned!
But Eden couldn't say much else. She squirmed again in her seat and eyed the librarian. SO the meeting would be starting--oh good. AND he was announcing pairs--okay?
So? Eden wanted to know hers NOW. She was feeling really anxious about it, too.
So Ruby's weird brother and Eddie's weird cousin were paired. Ha. That would be hilarious to see. She didn't see the two getting along--well, they MIGHT, but she doubted they'd be best of friends. THough she didn't know either too well, and what she knew of Lincoln she knew from Eddie. So his image might be a bit skewed.
Aww. Maddie and CB. They were cuties. She flashed a smile at Maddie and glanced at the other Ravenclaw. Coral-Bay seemed really nice..she knew Connor was friends with her...so...yeah...when did Eden find out her comrade? Now? yeah? NOW?
