The conversation had lost her attention, Raziel had started talking about his summer and all his lady friends. Kacandera's summer wasn't nearly as exciting, She had been locked up in the house while her father entertained some of his old Death Eater friends, forced to sit through conversations, and drunk older men telling her that she was as pretty as her aunt, and what they wanted to do to her aunt. Talk about awkward feelings, and wanting to escape a conversation so desperately. Of course Raziel didn't need to know about those conversations, then again she didn't know how her brother would take old men talking like that around her.
"Kacandera was it?"
"Oui." She responded getting ripped out of her thoughts.
"So you live with Rabastan?"
"Oui."
"Hows that like?"
"Pardon?" The question didn't compute in her mind, was living with Rabastan suppose to different? "I don't believe it would be any different then living with my mother." She said looking away from the people talking to her to inspect the rest of the student faculty. "I mean, I was taught to talk, read and write, just like everyone else, He isn't as affectionate as many other parents, but he does care for his children..." She said seriously, "our punishments are a little more sever, but that just means we won't screw up again." she said with a sigh, returning her attention back to the Slytherins. "then again I don't think it's any of your business how my father raised me, or treats me...do you understand." The question was sharper then she had meant for it to be, and one girl recoiled slightly. She looked to her brother who had his eyes else where towards a different table, ignoring the conversation at his own table.
"Sorry it's just many Death Eaters got rounded up and are still in Azkaban, and Raziel couldn't tell us how living with a Death Eater was, since he lives with your mother." One boy tried to explain but Kacandera brushed it off.
"I'm going for a walk." She informed her brother who nodded and she stood, slipping out of the great hall. It was time to explore the grounds and see what sort of things this school had to offer her. All she had to remember was to look for people with the Slytherin Emblem when she decided to go to the common room. Once she made it out into the dim hallway she looked left and right, she decided to check where the left went, she found herself at the doors to the courtyard, her heels clicked loudly against the stone flooring, she almost shivered at how much noise they made, good thing she had no reason to sneak around. With a brisk look around she made her way to the main doors and pushed them open allowing the moonlight to flood in the doorway, as she took a step out, not bothering to shut the doors behind her, they would shut on their own, or she believed, after all they were heavy. She just had to make sure they didn't lock her out, that would be horrible.
The moonlight danced off her dark hair and light blue uniform, she inclined her face towards the source of the moon, and let the cool air hit her, it felt nice. She made her way over towards the fountain that sat as one of the center pieces, she wasn't sure she liked this exchange idea anymore.
