Relieved to get outside after wandering the dark corridors of the castle, Morgan headed toward a group of benches situated on a small piece of lawn surrounded by flowery bushes that emanated a fresh, fruity smell. With a sigh, she draped herself over a bench, stretching out her legs and turning her face toward the sunlight.

Nia showed up behind Morgan "I see you've made yourself comfortable." She said with a laugh, taking a seat on a bench across from Morgan.

"Indeed," Morgan replied lazily, "this is the only way to be. There is absolutely nothing that could bother you out here."

((OOC: *looks innocent* sorry, had to read something)) "Well, except the annoying birds." Nia said "Talking away."

"I suppose so, but at least it's away from the hustle of the castle... sometimes it just seems to get so crowded. Sometimes I hate being mostly confined to castle grounds," Morgan said, aquiring a faraway look in her eyes.
"Don't you ever feel...trapped...here?" she turned her head to look at Nia.

Nia nodded "Ya, but its bearable for me. I have about a million siblings in a fair sized house, but its pretty small with all the people in it. Here at least there is some breathing space." She smiled slightly "And its quieter to me too."

"Oh," Morgan replied, turning her face back to the sun. "I'm an only child...spent most of my childhood roaming around outside..." she continued, but seemed suddenly reluctant to go on.

"Wish I could have. I spent most of my time caring for my family." She sighed "Too much family for me."

Morgan laughed with a bitter undertone. "I never had that problem... I wonder what it'd be like. They must all care a lot for you..."

"Oh I bet they sure miss me while i"m at school, my sister isn't much of a person for looking after family." NIa said "but anyways, enough family talk."

"You're right," Morgan replied after a short burst of laughter. "What's the point of going to boarding school if you're going to worry about family, right?"
With a sigh, she sat up, lit a cigarette and pulled her knees close to her body. "Bad habit, don't even consider starting it." After a short look around to make sure no professors were close by, she turned back to Nia. "So, tell me, how do you like it out here?"

Nia smiled "I agree with you there." She nodded to Morgan's comment about smoking, one thing she never planed on doing.
"I think its nice out here" Nia said simply

"Good girl," Morgan replied.
"Glad you like it out here," she added, smiling at the other girl. It wasn't often she tolerated company, especially not out here, but she was starting to take a liking to Nia.

Nia smiled "It is peaceful, something I hardly ever get at home." She looked around "I take it most people head towards the lake."

"Indeed they do. There are days when I wander around over there, but most of the time I come here, because, as you said, it's peaceful. And the flowers smell nice," Morgan said with a grin.
"The only time you do not want to head over here is during balls and such, because you won't be able to walk a step without tripping over someone snogging. Very upsetting, that, if you're alone," she added, grimacing.
