Instead of going to lunch, Monica had gone down to the kitchen and grabbed some food. She knew she was early now, but she didn't care. She sat on a low wall facing the entrance to the castle. She was excited for her meeting with Ryan, and to be perfectly honest, she wasn't really in the mood to talk to anyone else. Plus, she was in the mood for samosas, and she knew there was no way to get them except to have a house elf make them for her. As she took a bite of the hot pastry, Monica thought of what Ethan would say if he was still here. All he'd ever talked about was freeing the house elves, and he would probably be disappointed in her for going downstairs and ordering a special lunch when the elves were already so busy during lunchtime. He would say she was rude, inconsiderate... Well, he was rude and inconsiderate for leaving. So she kept eating. Offhandedly, she wondered why she had never discovered her elementium power when he was around. Maybe he just kept her calm. Maybe going out with someone older had made her feel safe, and on the first day back after he left she felt so scared and alone and lost that all of her bottled-up anxiety just burst forth like a hurricane. A few months ago, Monica would have thought that she didn't know what to do without him. But discovering this ability was good for her. It made her realize there was more to life than boys, and that she could be complete on her own. She had to be. At least she wasn't entirely alone. Ryan would be here any second. Monica was excited to practice again. It had been a while - she'd been so preoccupied with the drama going on between her friends, and Liam had been really busy with prefect duty. She'd been having trouble focusing her mind, too. But today was perfect. It was sunny, and the air was clear. She was ready. |

It was only just after lunch, Ryan was already starting to feel a little bit stretched thin. Her morning had been eventful, more than what she was used to, and there was a lot that had to be done in the day still. So as she walked out into the courtyard, Ryan was actually glad that she was taking a break and relaxing. Honestly, a lot of what had her stressed was the fact that her social life was kind of sky rocketting. For the Ravenclaw, talking to people was kind of the most draining thing in the world. Between a possessive boyfriend, (which was entirely new in itself,) Billie, Jason and the Rainer twins... she was reaching her limit. She hadn't even seen Ry or Haven yet. She still had her first tutoring session with Antoine tonight, and who knew what state Cast would be in by the time she got back to the common. Lis seemed to feeling a bit better, which made Ry feel a bit better. There was also the whole Teddy situation looming in the background, the guy had seemed pretty great, they became friendly not long before he disappeared... even though it was only a short time, it still would be nice to have some closure. The fourth year just kind of missed the days where she could find a quiet place and read while the rest of the world happened around her? Somehow, through everything, Ryan walked with purpose in her stride, a smile was on her face as she greeted Monica. At least here, she felt like she was actually doing something good, hopefully helpful in the long run, for everyone, "Hi Monica!" Ryan said, still managing some excitement in her voice. She really was happy to be here, she was just struggling on focusing on the the task at hand. Ryan's eyes scanned the area, empty, as she'd hoped. Although, she'd realized at some point, it wouldn't matter all that much, just feel like a windy day? "So." She said, clapping her hands together, "What should we do first?" The fourth year was pretty freaking excited to talk with someone who understood, and could maybe teach her something new. |

Monica hurriedly put down her food as Ryan walked over. Her face broke into a smile, and she waved at the fourth year. "Hi!" she chirped. "Sorry, it's still lunchtime for me," she explained, gesturing toward the food. The older girl stood and faced the younger. "Wow, this is exciting! It'll be nice to practice with someone who's on roughly even footing with me. You know, the person I normally work with is good... but I feel like he wishes he could practice with someone on his level." Monica was decent, and she knew a few tricks, but she still had a ways to go in learning self-control. "Well, to start, what all can you do?" |

"I don't mind." Ryan waved her hand for a moment. It was better if they were both filled, as their abilities seemed to be pretty taxing. At least Ryan found it to be. Maybe Monica was different? The younger girl smiled as the older one expressed her excitement. The Elliot was glad that she wasn't alone in all of this. Monica was still avoiding using the other Air Elementus's name. A third. By now she knew it wasn't the adults that they knew. Curiosity was nagging her about it, but she decided against asking. The guy had the right to remain anonymous. "I've made.. small whirlwinds, and I've learned how to separate oxygen from the other elements, how to shift a breeze..." She tried to recount everything she'd really learned, "I've also learned how to shove objects around, but that's mostly when I'm angry. That's really about it at the moment." The girl shrugged, "I try hard to keep it concealed. For a long time, only my sister knew." Ryan couldn't keep a secret from Lis. One of those things, "Now my whole family knows." She looked past the girl for a moment, gaze glossing over, as she thought about how much more worry her parents were probably going through because of it. The younger girl shook her head, "Does your family know?" Ryan knew she probably should have been asking if there was anything else that Monica knew about that she may have missed, but she wondered how much of a secret the older girl had kept her ability. |

Monica nodded along as Ryan listed off all the things she could do. "Wow, separating oxygen - that's a new one! I don't even think I can do that. I guess we'll both be teaching each other." She grinned at the younger girl. But the grin fell off her face at the mention of her family. "No one in my family knows. I don't... um... really talk to my parents about magic. It's a bit of a touchy subject." Monica felt awkward. She didn't want to give Ryan her life story when the girl definitely had not asked for it, but she didn't know how to smoothly avoid the question, so she continued, "My dad was a wizard, but he gave up his powers to be with my mom. And he thinks my brother and I shouldn't have gone to Hogwarts. So I think he would, uh, probably freak out if he knew I was an elementium." She exhaled, hoping to get rid of all this nervous energy. At least she could use it in her favor. Normally Monica wouldn't have been able to do this. Today, however, it was already cold outside, and she was feeling jittery. So she shook her arms out and aimed her hands toward the fountain. A cold gust of air whooshed by, and the water trickling out of the fountain froze to ice. It was mushy ice - more the consistency of snow - but it helped Monica feel better. "Temperature manipulation," she explained to Ryan. "I can make it colder, but making it hotter is really difficult. Which is a shame, with how cold it's been lately." She stuck her hands in the pockets of her robes, feeling a bit chilly now. "I can do some other cool tricks, too. I can slow down a fall, although I haven't jumped from anything too high. And - this is my favorite - I can increase airwave vibrations. Eavesdrop on people." She mischievously whispered that last sentence, adding in a wink and a giggle for good measure. |
