Caralynn's gaggle of followers followed her dutifully. It was the privilege of Aegis Academy's most talented, beautiful student to be attended to by her adoring fans. A woman like her had no need to carry her own bags, nor should she ever hear anything but praise. She twirled her finger around one of her delicate blonde curls as she giggled appropriately at the joke someone made.
She hadn't really been paying attention to it. No, her mind was on greater things. Like dealing with ty. The upstart had been making waves due to some performance in Magic Studies that had earned them dozens of points for ty's House.
Overshadowing Caralynn's perfection couldn't be allowed. She'd have to find some way to manipulate them into being more compliant. An easy task for someone as refined as her.
"Oh I'm so sorry!" Caralynn turned her adoring followers. She took her bag from the boy holding it and flashed him a brilliant smile as thanks. Yes, she could see him sear this image of her beauty into their mind. The dope-y smile on the boy's face made Caralynn feel good. After all, a good noblewoman rewarded her lessers.
Caralynn slipped into the empty classroom that rumors said ty liked to spend their lunches in, waving bye to her fans as she did so. And just as she expected: there ty was. "Well, well, well. If it isn't the rising star of Aegis Academy!" Caralynn swept into the room, the lovely scent of lavender clung to her. Not enough to be overwhelming of course, she wasn't some insipid girl who knew nothing of perfume.
The room was barren save for some tables, bookshelves, and a window that overlooked the courtyard outside. Caralynn took the opportunity to move over to the table ty was sitting at and perched herself onto it, crossing her legs demurely. "I heard you made quite a show in Magic Studies. I figured it was time to introduce myself. You can call me Cara."
The words rolled naturally off her tongue, but her tone betrayed that she thought it was an honor to simply meet her. "This is a lovely room, do you normally choose to eat alone?" It was time to test the waters. Coming on too strong would just cause ty to refuse her, and refusing Caralynn wasn't an option.
