Where all the students of Frostfire come to either relax after a long day or to simply mess around.

((kyra))

Corra held her smile as the two girls made their way to the common room. She was simply delighted to have met a fine girl such as Valentina and wondered if perhaps they could be friends. While the duchess didn't have very many friends, nowadays, she tried to make a few here and there. Now, she was simply grateful to have encountered Valentina when she did. And her luck was simply amazing! They both attended Frostfire so that could mean that they had probably bumped into each other a few times before

Valentina entered the common room and was happy to find it completely empty,often the first years tended to stray away from the common room leaving it open for the senior class. She smiled and lead Corra to the little dining table that was there,she pulled her seat up and sat down. Licking her lips in anticipation she bite into her cheese danish and enjoyed the crispy bread and the thick sweet cheese. " This is to die for." She giggled softly brushing away the crumbs that had stuck to her face. Taking a sip of hot chocolate she smiled happy the whip cream had not entirely been melted away. " So what other classes are you taking?" She questioned tilting her head.

Corra watched Valentina in amusement as she too sat comfortably in a chair and unwrapped her own little treats. Before she took a fairly large bite, she commented, "I don't know if these would be worth it to die for, but they definitely are delicious." With that, she bit into the lemon tart and the sour lemon jelly began to burst with flavor as she did so. The pastry bits balanced out the sourness of the tart and it was perfect. Especially with her hazelnut drink. The meal in of itself was divine and Corra couldn't wait to come back tomorrow morning. That is, if her schedule was free and clear to make another trip to Creamberry. "Swap?" Corra asked, gesturing to her tart and Calentina's danish. "I can cut off a piece."

Valentina smiled,"You're probably right." She grinned before taking another sip. of her hot chocolate. Valentina watched Corra's reaction closely and giggled as she saw her close her eyes in bliss. " Brilliant idea!" She smiled and tore off a piece of her danish offering it to Corra. Bits of the flakes flew into her lap as sher ripped it,with her right arm she swept them off and turned her attention to Corra." So what other classes are you taking?" She questioned tilting her head.

Corra handed half of her tart with Valentina and took a generous helping of her danish. No wonder she loved the cheese danish. They truly were one of the best desserts she ever had. While it was a bit messy, Corra slurped the goody filling inside. When Valentina asked what classes she was taking this year, Corra merely smiled politely and finished up her danish. "Er, definitely ability training, Foreign Languages, Art, Lore, and. . . what was the other one? Oh yeah! Boredom." She said dryly. "You'd think that I would have an entire schedule Filled of things for me to do when I'm not in class like every one else but nope! I guess being a seventh year comes with it's perks." She then gestured to Valentina. "How about yourself? Any classes that are worth your while?"

Valentina took her half of the lemon tart and bit into it,the flavor burst in her mouth first the tartness and then the sweet bread,it was the perfect blend of sweet and sour. The crumbs of bread decorated her dress and the sides of her mouth some of the filling. Using her hand she brushed of the remaining crumbs and used a napkin to the rid the filling. Valentina listened attentively to Corra and giggled when she mentioned Mr.York’s class. When asked about her classes she racked her head for them,” I have Ability Training, Equestrian, History of Asatrial,Literature and Animal Science, the rest of my day is spent in the fighting arena.” Valentina smiled,” These classes are enough for me, to be completely honest my favorite though will forever be Ability Training.” She smiled and looked at the bell,” I think it’s time for Boredom.” She rolled her eyes and pretended to sleep. “ After classes would you want to go the fighting arena?”

"Oh, equestrian? That sounds like fun," Corra replied with a smirk. "Especially the fighting, as well. Who do you practice with? Surely not one of the other students." Corra never knew there was a fighting arena in the school but then again, the school probably had many secrets if it's own that it wasn't willing to shareholders just yet. "I'll admit," she said slowly, "I've never done any fighting but it does sound rather. . . educational, so I doubt my mother would raise her hand on it, so count me in. You will be there, won't you?"

( i'm so sorry )
" Horses have always caught my interest and having my horse here at the stables is like a stress reliever from all this madness," a small smile dancing on her lips. MIschief glowed in her eyes her smile quickly replaced with a smirk," You'd be quite surprised how many students are there,it's the pump of adrenaline that keeps making them come back," She winked and smiled broadly," Of course where else would I be?" She got up from her seat cleaning her area and throwing her cup into the trashcan. Leading the way out of the common room." See you at 4:00 pm, okay in the fighting arena." With that Valentina strode out and continued with her day excited for the match.

((Not a problem! *cough* I made you wait two weeks so you're good! XD))

"Oh! You have your own horse? That sounds marvelous! I couldn't stand leaving something precious at home while I have to suffer through school. . ." Corra trailed off, remembering one too many times when her parents forbid her from taking a single fictional book. Claiming it would distract her from her studies or make her daydream while in class. Either way, they hated that she would even read such a thing! Focusing back on Valentina, Corra matched her new friend's silly smile. "Oh true. Us Frostfire students can truly be a mess and we simply need to find a way to exert that energy out. And what better way to do that than sparring with one another." As Valentina stood up from her chair, Corra laughed. "Very well. See you then!" While Corra made her way to the dorm, she smiled giddily to herself the whole way.
