Apparently, you didn't know how late it was nor how tired you were, because when you woke up again, it was the next day and sun was streaming in your windows. The reason for your wake up was a sharp knocking on your door, and you groaned and called out "Gimme a second!" before rolling out of bed. You raked your fingers through your mussed hair, flattening it down decently as you walked to the door. Forgetting that you wore nothing but an oversize hoodie and thigh highs, you swung the thing open with a sigh and "What do you want?"

But you, as well as the person on the other side, did a double take. You because you weren't expecting to see Cordelia standing there, and her because of what you were wearing. Never in her life did she think that in the span of three days she would see so much thigh. But she cleared her throat, looking away quickly and trying to keep her wavering eyes on yours. "Morning gathering is in ten minutes. Please, uh, get dressed before you come down." she muttered, vice as steady as she could muster, and you just nodded stupidly, blinking a few times and choking out "Will do," before pushing the door closed and collapsing against it with a "motherfucker" which could be heard clearly on Cordelia's end. The comment made her chuckle and she attempted to cool down her now heated cheeks.

Meanwhile, you had made your way to your closet, choosing one of your more modest outfits to make up for forcing poor Cordelia to see you basically half naked.

After getting dressed and fixing your makeup you put on some casual flats and meandered from your room to the living room, passing Cordelia silently as she mumbled words with her mother, glancing only briefly at you when you walked by before refocusing on Fiona. You ignored her and gave her privacy, skipping down the tall staircase and into the living room where most everyone else was. Everyone except...and there she was. Nan, walking in quietly and settling down on the sofa. You chose to sit on the floor beside the chair that you knew Cordelia would sit in again.

Speaking of, the blonde headmistress entered the room with a small smile on her lips, heading to her chair only to look down at you with a quizzical look. You just smiled innocently and gestured for her to sit down, which she did with a sigh and playful shake of her head. After a moment she sighed again, this time much more annoyed, and called out "Fiona! We're starting!" loudly. You hummed but payed attention to Cordelia when she began to speak. "We need to go over some house rules, since Zoe is new, and I don't think y/n has had the...honor of sitting through them yet."

You chuckled and leaned back on your hands, allowing you to get a better view of the woman without having to crane your neck up to see her face. Continuing, she then said "I want you to introduce yourselves, tell us how you got here, and then we'll review the rules. Y/n, since you seem so eager to participate, you may go first." Cordelia looked down to you with a pointed look and you huffed, pouting mockingly. "Fine fine. Uh, I set my mom's curtains on fire when we were arguing, and nearly gave myself a concussion with my chemistry textbook. I like...plants. And reading, writing poems...and stuff. I haven't really been told much about my ancestry, if you will, besides that my mom is a witch and my dad was..not. He was a muggle I guess." you giggled at your little reference before continuing after the eye roll you gained from Cordelia.
