2nd Floor Common Room Kitchen - Afternoon

[notcalledlizzie]

Elizabeth was pretty much fed up of doing nothing.

She pulled out a folder of recipes, and having checked ingredients and *handwavily* buying what she was missing, she headed to the kitchen to hopefully not create a disaster.

Not sure if Jamie might be doing another movie marathon, Willow went down to the 2nd floor common room.

She saw somebody trying to cook. "Oh. Um. Hi! Am I interrupting?"

[notcalledlizzie]

Elizabeth turned around, and smiled at the unfamilar girl. "No, not at all. Hi. I'm Elizabeth."

[willbedone]

"Willow," she said, pointing at herself. She folded her book against her chest and came over. "What are you making?"

[notcalledlizzie]

"Pyraniki at the moment," Elizabeth said, turning back to add flour to her bowl. "They're spicy cookies."

[willbedone]

"Want help?" Willow asked. "I make a pretty mean cookie. Well, actually I'm told they're very nice. They don't go around and terrorize the other baked goods or anything."

[notcalledlizzie]

Elizabeth giggled. "Not terrorizing other baked goods is a good thing," she said, nodding. "I think I'm good for this batch; I just need to cut out the dough and put them in the oven now. But I'm bored enough to be baking for a bit longer if you're still interested in helping."

[willbedone]

"Sure!" Willow said. "If you don't mind the company. I don't want to steal your baking thunder."

[notcalledlizzie]

"No baking thunder, I promise you that," Elizabeth replied. "This is me attempting to stave off boredom, and I always welcome company."

"This is why I carry books," Willow said. "Well that and I like books and if I'm carrying them then I can read them and it's that much more of a guarantee that nobody else is touching them and cracking the binding."

[notcalledlizzie]

"Carrying books is also good," Elizabeth nodded. "Except I think I'm a bit read out at the moment. Can't seem to concentrate really."

[willbedone]

"Everything okay?" Willow asked. "You're not being harassed by frogs, are you?"

[notcalledlizzie]

"Frogs?" Elizabeth asked curiously. "No, no frogs. Just too much time with nothing really to do."

[willbedone]

"Oh," Willow said. "I get that. That's when I usually try to anticipate what my homework for next semester's going to be, and do it in advance."

[notcalledlizzie]

"Unfortunately, I have no clue what I'm going to take next semester. I've been trying to read in Italian to increase my vocab, but, yeah. Concentration issues," Elizabeth said, shrugging slightly.

[willbedone]

"Latin's fun," Willow suggested. "Plus has many uses when you're living on a Hel - um - so what kind of cookies are next?"

[notcalledlizzie]

Elizabeth grinned. "Latinus est iocus, ita. Ego narro is iam," she said. She cast a second glance at Willow, but shrugged. "Not sure yet. Cally liked the look of Medyanki."

[[Latin is fun, yes. I speak it already. *massacres the language*]]
