"That depends on where you're going?" she greeted, tying her scarf around her neck. "I'm on my way to the Library. I seem to be unable to focus in the house." She wasn't sure where Susan and Mandy were, but she was fairly certain both were around. Her room was feeling too small lately, but studying in the living room was almost always too distracting.

She was still getting used to the idea of muggle clothing, but found once she'd worn denims and a jumper once it got easier and easier. Her aunt had given her a green cashmere jumper for Christmas, and Pansy found she quite liked how soft the fabric was.

"That was my plan too, unfortunately. I don't know about you but I'm sick of revision. I know I need to do it. I want to do it but Merlin, I'm sick of it," he told her honestly. "It feels like all I do is revise and work. I know that's not true. I went flying this morning and visited my parents, so I haven't even cracked a book today. Still..." he didn't know how to describe the sense of feeling caged in, he ended by tossing his arms up in the air.

"No, I know how you feel. I just keep telling myself that the more time I put in the better off I'll be. I need practical work, though, so it's not like I'll get that done today."

She looked around and bit her lip. "Do you want to go for a walk first? I've been meaning to get over to Tattered Pages one of these days. If you're not ready for revision, you could always go with me," she shrugged.

Neville smiled when she said she knew how he felt. "I have the Dueling Chamber in the dungeon reserved this coming week for an hour on Monday and Friday mornings. I don't mind sharing if you want to get in some Defense practice. There were still open slots. If you'd like to work alone, you should sign up before other people snap them up."

Pansy suggested a walk first and Neville scrubbed the back of his neck. He probably should revise. Then again, he'd felt a lot better last week after he'd decided not to revise last Sunday. He also felt more productive. A walk certainly couldn't hurt. He had planned to walk to the school anyway. "Yeah. I think that's a great idea, Pansy. I've been there. I think you'll like it. It's sort of quaint."
