She spun the stars on her fingernails{Julia;;Theo}

[Aleta Crow]

A small sigh escaped Aleta of Rajmuat's lips. A girl born from the newly discovered Four Isles, her being from Tortall mainly, but born in the Copper Isles, she wasn't a big fan of the new world that she was suddenly put in. She should be a squire by now, should she had her way. She would've started her page learning at 10, and be in her first year of attending a knightmaster. But no, those sailors had to be shipwrecked and had us find this whole new world, her mother sending her here.

She had advanced powers, one not controlled by a wand. It was because of her origins in Tortall as a daughter of one person who had the Sight, and her mother being the daugher of one who had the Gift, the other, the Sight. Her Sight was slightly different. It was trained for combat and spying. She could read lips, find traces of poisons, and even sense movement of combat several seconds before it happened, enough to move, as long as the person was aiming at her or someone within a mile radius of her point.

Although she had that, it did little help here. There was nothing but for her to learn odd spells and charms that provided little but entertainment for her. Her own parents could do better. Her father could do better, and he was a freaking crow! Okay, a crow-man, but a crow nontheless. Trudging to the edge of the lake, she kicked it angrily.

She hated her mother and father for this, really. Her grandmother objected to her leaving, but her mother thought it would be a wonderful experience. Oh, lovely, it was great. Not. Grumbling, she pulled a hidden dagger and threw it at a tree behind her. She wasn't looking at the tree, but she sensed movement over there. Besides, she needed to practice her aiming, the dagger was not in the center. "What do you want?" She asked, her voice dangerous, as she walked to the tree, pulling the dagger out.

Too late, she thought that perhaps it would not have been a good idea to throw the dagger. Nobody really knew she had it, but she was a Spymaster's daughter, granddaughter, and even greatgranddaughter. Of course she would have hidden weapons, but she didn't think it would be allowed. "nuts.." she murmured under her breath as she replaced the dagger. She peeked behind the tree to the person hiding there. "Uhm...you didn't see that, did you?" She asked sheepishly, quite embarrased.

((OOC: I hope y'all don't mind the use of the dagger...it's just...I thought it would be interesting...besides, it would be natural for her to have it...))

[Julia Tomb]

Hold on to whatever will get you through...

It was a beautiful day outside, Julia had realized this when she made her usual trip to the green houses to check up on her beloved plants. She had actually overdressed and her long sleeved (slightly thin) green shirt began to itch. She scratched her arns, cursing herself for not double checking before she stepped outdoors. The Ravenclaw tower was usually pretty good at setting the outside weather conditions within the commons area, but with the fire being blown out as it was the night before, it was very hard to tell. A little chilly, to say the least.

It was really early, classes wouldn't be starting for at least another two hours, and as Julia was making her way back to the castle, she saw movement over by the lake. Needless to say she was rather curious at that fact, as this would be the first time she had ever seen anyone awake as early as she rose, let alone outside. And.. being the curious little bird she was, she decided to go over and investigate it.

She wasn't trying to be sneaky, she didn't want to startle whoever it was. But at the same time, she didn't really want to be seen by certain indivisuals either. So as she made her way to the lake, through the tree's to where "whoever" was standing, she wasn't really making herself well known. She should have, once she was within a few yards of her, Julia froze, hearing something zip past her and slam into the three to her left. Turning slowly, she gapped. Stuck in the tree was a dagger. She looked over at the person who had thrown the dagger, the one standing by the lake, and blinked back in disbelief. A girl?

When questioned if she "saw that" Julia simply shook her head. "See what?" She asked, mustering up a smile.

____________________

Theodore yawned. It wasn't his day, he had woken up late and hadn't arrived in class on time to get the best seat, he had to sit up front. History of magic was the class you didn't want to be put up front in, for it was a lot easier for you to get away with sleeping in his class in the back then up were the professor could see you. So he had a boring lecture for an hour and half while fighting to stay awake.

He decide to wake up he would have to go outside and actually do something. Maybe the breeze would wake him up, and do him so good. Maybe it would lift his mood. Just maybe. His blue eyes scanned the lawns, but no one was there of great importance. he could see Harry and the rest of Trio underneath a tree near the Greenhouses, but again no one of any importance was around. Theo then decided to go the lake, it was usually a nice popular spot, especially for his friends.

Walking quite slowly, he thought of his homework, and banned the thought away as quickly as it came up. He was going to actually have some fun today, even if it killed someone. He wasn't sure if it would, but it was worth a try. After a few paces, he saw a girl beside the lake. He smirked and headed her way, maybe he didn't have to have a little fun alone. As he walked closer, he found it was Aleta.

Just as he was about to say something, he noticed another girl, with the look of shock on her face. Instead of introducing himself to the two, he smiled amusingly, waiting to find out was was happening. He had noticed the dagger in the tree behind the girl that seemed shock.

[Aleta Crow]

Aleta growled when she had removed the dagger from the tree. It was a girl. She cursed under her breath again. It seemed that she had seen the dagger. Her face registered surprise. But when she said 'see what?' to her question, her eyes lowered. This girl seemed to have seen the dagger, but claimed to have not seen it. Unless there was some great big Hurrok, or even Stormwing, behind her. But that was impossible. Well, no it wasn't impossible. But she doubted that they would be here.

"You know very well what." She spat at the girl, rage in her eyes. Movement caught her eyes. Her head snapped to the person that had moved behind the girl. Delight replaced her rage as she saw it was Theodore. Theodore was a good friend of hers, and an extremely hot guy. She grinned, forgetting the girl in front of her. "Theo!" She called happily, waving at him. She liked him...alot. She only admitted that to herself, and her closest friend, Astoria. She didn't think she would have a chance with him...and never told him.

Theo watched the girls, as he walked closer. He wasn't sure if he wanted to get in the middle of whatever was going to happen, especially not in the middle of Aleta's temper. He grinned at them, however, because he found it amusing. Apparently, the girl acted like she hadn't seen anything when Aleta threw the dagger. What a stupid girl. He stopped a few feet away from them both, and continued to watch.

His thoughts were interrupted when Aleta said his name. He smiled at her, waving his hand in her direction. Only then did he allow himself to come closer. "Hey Aleta!" he walked to the girl, pulling her instantly to him, wrapping his arms around her. After the brief hug, he pulled back and stood a foot or so away. "What brings you out today?" He looked sideways to the other girl. "Whats going on?" he mused.
