3rd Floor Common Room; Wednesday Afternoon

Isobel had some time to kill between classes and cheerleading practice.  She hadn't had much luck in tracking down information on the artifacts though she could sense them.  So she was here again making notes and wondering where to go from here.

Gwynn was looking for Conner. When she came into the common room and saw Lana, she gave her a friendly smile. "Hi Lana."

Isobel carefully slid a book over her notes. "Good morning, Gwynn."

While this group living was admittedly quite nice for finding people to dally with, it certainly didn't afford a great deal of privacy.

Gwynn was slightly bouncing in her shoes. "I haven't see you in a little while. How have you been?"

Isobel barely refrained from rolling her eyes. "Better than you could imagine," she replied. "And you?" Not that she cared.

"I'm glad you're doing good," Gwynn said cheerfully. "Me? I'm looking for Conner. Have you seen him?"

There was quite a bit of eagerness in her voice.

This? This little chit was looking for Conner? Isobel could have laughed. "Not since I left his bed early this morning," Isobel said archly. "Why?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn stumbled a little. "Wh-what?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Did I stutter?" Isobel asked snidely. "I said I haven't seen him since I left his bed early this morning. I don't know where he might have run off to at this point."

And that would be when all cheerfulness went right out of the usually happy archer. She blinked her eyes, trying not to let the tears show.

"I thought he... and..."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Is something wrong?" Isobel asked, all mock sympathy.

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"I thought he liked me," she said softly, trying not to let Lana seeing her on the verge of crying. "He said I was pretty and he helped me and..."

It hasn't quite registered that Lana, who she thought was a friend, was the one Conner had been in bed with.

"Oh Gywnn, I'm so sorry. If I'd known..." I'd have done exactly the same thing.

Gwynn couldn't stop the tear that made it's way down her face before she hastily brushed it away.

"Not... not your fault. I guess he likes girls that are more... sweet and ladylike. Likes girls more like you."

That would be a dejected and emo Gwynn turning to leave.

"I gotta go, Lana." She swallowed. "Take care."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Wait," Isobel said, adding a small spell to be sure the girl wouldn't leave. "I'm sure there's a way to fix this."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn was looking at the floor. "Don't see how," she said quietly. "He doesn't like me like that. I'm not his... I think they call it type." She swallowed. "I should have known better."

Isobel pointed at the girl and spoke a few words in Latin. "You won't remember this conversation, but when you leave her you will become the feminine ideal you believe that men want. And you will be filled with lust. Go forth and explore your true self as a woman."

Gwynn blinked. "I'm sorry Lana, you were saying?"

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm?" Isobel said. "Oh nothing. Just hoped you had a good day. Good luck finding Conner."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

She smiled. "Thanks, Lana. I think I should go change first, though."

[lovelylana.livejournal.com]

"Good idea," Isobel said with a smirk. "Off you go then."
