The rather short Ravenclaw took a step back, quite surprised when the young girl screamed. She didn't go out talking to other people much, so this was considered as something new to her. Yes, definitely something new, not to mention odd. Although she was probably just scared herself but as she continued to observe the younger girl, she had to admit, she was holding back a grin. As to why, well, she just found this a tad bit amusing but out of respect for the girl in front of her, she held the grin back, and just placed a look of curiosity on her features instead.
Elizabeth shifted her weight to her other leg and continued observing the girl. Her green eyes looking a bit curious as she watched the girl tipping the watering can. She can't help but stare sometimes, especially when she was curious. She wanted to know where the Professor was, yet she also wanted to know why this girl was here when it was a fine day outside!
"Oh..."
When the lass answered her question, Elizabeth bit her lip, oh great. Just what she needed. Now she's going to have to look for her Professor elsewhere. She frowned and crossed her arms, thinking about what she was going to do. She could go right now, but then she'd be wasting this wonderful day if the teacher decided to give her a chance to make up for her lessons. She pondered for a moment, looking at the ceiling as she shrugged. She can always talk to her Herbology Professor the next day, she didn't want to waste today's weather.
Her attention was brought back to the girl in front of her and murmured a bit more to herself, "I'll just have to see her some other time." She let out a light chuckle and grinned, knowing that she might skip meeting her Professor tomorrow too, she wouldn't know. She was too much of a procrastinator to care. Liz wanted to ask Nerissa why she was all alone here, and why she was doing such a task but she just told her why just now. She looked around and nodded, "Okay, fair enough." Although she didn't exactly like Herbology, she didn't exactly tolerate people who purposely destroy the plants. Specially mandrakes.
"Wh-what?" She had to ask again and looked to her side, seeing a pot right next to her, so she took a step away from it. "Alright, there we go. Sorry, about that." She grinned and shrugged when the girl asked her what she was doing in the green house, "Well, I was looking for the Professor. I needed to talk to him about my grades you see..." She didn't exactly mind if people knew she was worried about her studies, Ravenclaws she knew were the same only that they didn't exactly have anything to worry about...she on the other hand..
Shaking her thoughts she looked at the girl and shrugged, "Do you always come around here during your spare time?"
