Third Floor Common Room [Saturday, Mid-morning]

[pastmewrong.livejournal.com]

Trouble with being six, rather than sixteen, was always going to start with the size problem. Mostly the height problem. Everything good always seemed to be kept just out of reach of small hands, and that included a decent breakfast.

Effy didn't really want to starve, but at the same time, there wasn't exactly anyone around to do it all for her.

So she was going to stand and stare up at the higher cupboards, like maybe she could make them relinquish the food in there with just the power of her mind.

Clearly it wasn't going very well.

"It's the truth," he said and shrugged. "Quicker you learn it, the easier it is."

"But I want to change things," Raven said. A normal girl might've frowned, but she wouldn't let herself do that.

"You can't always change things," Alex said, shaking his head. "This world doesn't work that way. Shit is just shit."

"Of course it is," Raven said. "Whatever shit is."
