Zara is growing tired of breakfast, or rather she's growing irritated by the number of students incessantly discussing the recent news. The first year girl she had noticed earlier has succumbed to her tears, great droplets now streaking down her red cheeks. Other members of Vorne house have gathered around the distressed girl, offering support and sympathy. Zara just wants to gag. She's about to open her mouth to let the girl know that she should take her blubbering somewhere else, when a welcome distraction arrives in the form of Draven Taunton. He relaxes against the table beside her, oblivious or uncaring of the sudden attention his arrival has drawn from the other members of Vorne house. However, none of them say anything, either because they know of Draven's reputation, or of Zara's.

Zara listens to Draven's words with an amused smile on her face. Her irritation has vanished, now that she has someone she can complain with. He too seems to share her view that the amount of whining currently resounding in the hall is painfully infuriating. Although his annoyance doesn't seem to have affected his flirting ability as he casts Lucie, Zara's friend, a wink. Lucie, who had something of a problem talking around any good-looking boys, went bright red and quickly bit into a pastry in order to hide her embarrassment. Zara, who is quite used to her friend's quirks after five years at Magdalena with her, turns her back on Lucie in order to both give Lucie some privacy while she stuffs her face, and to give Draven her full attention.

Draven has a cockiness that Zara has always found attractive, and a similarity in manner that had helped confirm their friendship in the early days. Their parents are well acquainted too and Zara still remembers tedious magical gatherings made slightly more bearable by Draven's company. It also didn't hurt that Draven was physically attractive as well, having a bit of eye-candy appearing every so often did nothing to dampen Zara's mood. Now too she found her mood lifting thanks for Draven's remarks, a light laugh escaping as he calls Care of Magical Creatures glorified groundskeepers.

"I see you're as charitable as always, Draven." Zara tells him, a smirk playing across her face, "I have to agree with you. I've never seen the point of Care of Magical Creatures. But surely if any class is in danger of dragon attacks, Care of Magical Creatures is the best bet. Who knows, perhaps if we are lucky the dragons will pick off a few of the more irritating ones while the rest of us run for the dungeons."

She had to raise an eyebrow at Draven's insinuation that he could take on a dragon himself. Zara didn't doubt that he was a talented wizard, but for her she is perfectly happy to leave taming of the wayward dragons to the professionals. Why over-exert yourself when someone else can deal with it? However Zara is perfectly happy to play along with Draven's bold statement. Pursing her lips slightly she tilts her head, making a show of inspecting Draven. "I suppose we would have to call you some ridiculous name if you took down a dragon. Draven, The Dragons' Dread perhaps? Or how about Taunton the Tamer?" Zara teases, her lips slowly returning to an grin. "Although watch that your eyebrows don't get incinerated. You're nothing without your eyebrows honey."
