The sky wasn't as blue as it usually was. Heavy fluffy clouds seemed to be obscuring it and making it look in Gryphon's opinion not very happy. The little blonde had made her way across the Hogwarts grounds coming to a stop just on the out skirts of the Forbidden Forrest. Well, a couple of meters away from it really. Gryphon had heard quite a few stories about the Forrest. And even though all of those stories had been scoffed and laughed at, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous and suddenly very small.

'It is forbidden after all...'

Light blue eyes unsure and contemplative stared at the shadowy place, worried expression twitching a bit with a tiny smile at the thought of Scar from the lion king. Yeh, it wasn't quite a Elephants grave yard but still.
:[ It was creepeh.

Standing there in the tallish grass with silly yellow gumboots on her feet she rocked on her heels holding her elbows. She was wearing ripped, denim mini shorts and a purple 'Hellogoodbye' t-shirt. Too many long necklaces hanging around her neck with pictures of rainbows and a few pickachu's on them. Was she silly for being so worried? You couldn't even see the danger yet... besides the shadows.

Sighing at her unmade up decision Gryphon took a seat on a near by log. Facing the Forbidden forest she brought her legs to her chest and wrapped her arms around them tightly, resting her chin on her knees. What to do?

A firstie Ravenclaw looked up at the skies from his Common room window, and stretched a hand forward, standing on his tip-toes. In the skies, the fluffy clouds where so low that if he could stretch his fingers a little more, he would touch them. They reminded him of happy ba-baa sheep, jumping and ba-baa-ing around. The Ravvie's name was Oliver Connolly. But everyone found him so cute they had to call him Ollie [: He smiled, and stepped backwards from the windowsill. "It's explore time, Cupcake."

Cupcake was Ollie's bffl. It was a little plushie. He loved it to bits, and carried it everywhere with him. It was like his pet, only better [: Cupcake looked like this. Very yummy, yes? He grabbed Cupcake off his bedside table, and tucked it in the spacey pocket of his hoodie. "Let's go", he said, patting his pockets.

Ollie was still brand new. He had come to Hogwarts the previous night, so he had a bit of exploring to do now [: Grabbing his backpack, that clinked and dangled with many chains and keychains, he padded out of his CR in his checkered vans.

Walking to the edge of the grounds, he was coming closer to the Forbidden Forest. The new student new it was Forbidden, but didn't have a clue why. He paused, taking a long considering look at his surroundings. Sitting close by on a log, there was a girl. His cheeks grew warm, and Ollie had to look away. Ollie was a bit shy. He's not usually the one to stumble forward for presentations. He's okay once you get to know him, but sometimes, he's just a bit too reserved for his own good. Instead he stared down at the ground, finding a great interest in a particular spot where the earth was disturbed and a slow snail was slugging over it. Eww. It was leaving a shiny trail.

The breeze sent a shiver through Gryphon, thinking to herself that maybe she should just go back inside. The Mihael Common wasn’t that boring… -.-; much.

Turning her head to glimpse back toward the castle, as Gryphon always seemed to look at things before actually making a decision. She caught sight, surprisingly of a figure on the not-so abandoned outskirts of the School… Just staring at the ground.

‘What’s he doin?’ She thought blinking her bright eyes at the scene. It was rather random considering Gryphon had thought that people didn’t often come out here. Deciding she was most likely wrong and curiosity prodding at her to see what he was doing; Gryphon let her leggies go and got to her feet.

Now normally she was the type to shy away from others and let them be…But he was alone. And really lately Gryphon had been alone often whenever Nort wasn’t around. It felt as though sometimes she didn’t exist with out him to keep her smiling. Though she didn't know many people properly enough for them to keep her smiling like he did.

Maybe eventually Gryphon would find more that could do so..... maybe.

Gumboots swishing through the longish grass the Mihael girl wandered over to the boy. A shy smile on her lips as she looked at the boy in wonderment. 'Maybe peoples come out ehre to stare at the ground on purpose.'

“Hi,” One tiny syllable, now glancing at the ground that he had been staring at then slowly back at him. “Whatcha looking at?”

Ollie could feel the girl sitting on the log shuffling towards him. He stood there, eyes planted on the ground, wandering what he would say once she got here. Maybe nothing, Ollie wasn't a very talkative person. He reserved his thoughts to himself, too afraid to share them. But once you got to know him, he's a real hardcore dork [:

She spoke to him, and he could feel his cheeks growing a faint tinge of pink. " 'Ello " he mumbled, glancing briefly up at the girl through his hair. His gray eyes met her's, and instantly fell back down on the ground, following the lame trail the snail was making.

What was he looking at? Ollie shuffled his feet, and pulled out a hand from his hoodie's pocket. He pointed down at the ground. "S-sn-nail.." he stumbled over his words, and feeling like he was making an idiot of himself, his cheeks grew even pinker.

Ok. So pretty much Gryphon hadn’t expected the extremely cute stutter. Which made the girl form a little smile, her features softening. Alike how anyone would respond to Puss in Boots from Shrek, doing the big eyed cutie wootsie face.

:'3

Watching the boy with the stutter it was hard to make her self look at this snail. But she did. Seeing the snail making a little silver trail behind it. And then it really clicked and she couldn’t help the grin that curled over her lips. Awwwh. At first Gryphon hadn’t seen the snail thinking he was looking at something else…something more complicated. She had looked past Mr snail and hadn’t seen anything else.

Hehe.

“…poor mr snail.” Gryphon mumbled now. “must be hard having to carry ones house on their back.” Blue eyes looked up at the boy again. Noticing the colour in his cheeks she quickly hid the grin in a smile. Hopefully he wouldn’t turn any other colours. ‘He must be shyer than me…wow.’ She thought. 'That or embarressed about his snail watching...maybe its a hobbie?

“Must be even harder for him to get away too cause he's always leaving a train behind him.” Gryphon pointed out, looking at the snail again, leaned over a bit. "...A shiny, pretty trail..."
