OOC: it's what were they*
Miseria laughed quietly. Animagus. She really imagined how Alice will turn into little gray mouse. "Ah... yeaah... the snake speaker... right..." she rolled her eyes. For sudden knowledge, she felt jealous for Alice. That was one cool ability. Talking with snakes. Dark, even Lord Voldemort has this ability but Alice was Slytherin and she didn't even wonder why she had this ability. All girl's family was in Slytherin.
Only Miseria's parents were from different houses and even before them, some of them were Slytherins, Gryffindors, Ravenclaws and so on. She had some kind of mixed family. There were also muggleborns who married to the wizards. But hell, no one of Manson's didn't care of it. Even some old Slytherins were married to Muggle-Born females and males, though, Miseria was sure that she will get married with Wizard. She just can't get along with muggles, however they seem to be great friends.
Again walking away from Alice, she looked out of the window, at the lake which reflected all shining starts from the heaven. Maybe her parents were there right now, watching her and know that she misses them much. But then again, she made up a smile on her face. Acting was the thing what she prefered to do when friends are around. Then no one can see how she feels. And once again - who cared how she feeled? Alright, Khaat and maybe some one else as well but the others... They thought that she was hearless because of her strange attitude and style what was talking about assertiveness with some piercings. Why not?
She nodded and looked at Alice:"Yes, Occlumency, Leglimency and Telekensis. Hope you know what the last one is..." Her grin widened. Oh, she was insulting her best friend now as well. How good could it get?
