"No you aren't, you can tell me," Jake said softly, standing in front of her. "You don't look fine."

Nyssa rubbed her forehead before continuing. "It is just silly," She looked up at Jake realizing he wasn't going to let her try to weasel her way out of this like she always tried to do. "Sunday was Mother's Day... and... well..." she paused trying to find the right words. "It was my first Mother's Day without her."

"That's not silly," Jake said. "I'm sorry, Nyssa, I really am. Now I get why you were so upset."

Nyssa just nodded. That was all she could manage without bursting into renewed tears.

Jake frowned not knowing what to say, he looked down and noticed his hands. "Merlin's shorts, what happened?" He held up his hands and looked at Nyssa. "I'm all glittery..."

Nyssa grabbed his hand. "What happened to you? You look like you've been at a... playing in glitter." She changed her analogy part way through not think a wizard would get her slightly inappropriate reference.

"I don't know! I- what happened?" Jake said frantically.

Nyssa got out her wand. "I wonder if this will work... finite incantatum" She stared at his hands waiting for something to happen.

Jake looked shaking his head. "Why do these things always happen to me."

"I don't know," Nyssa said releasing his hand with a smile. "I'm just shocked nothing has happened to me yet. So which is worse, sparkling or shouting in the Great Hall?" Her eyes widened and she covered her mouth. "I'm sorry you asked me to forget about that."

Jake shrugged and jumped up to sit in the window next to her. "It's fine. I think me yelling out my love for good ole Snape will always be the worst thing I've done at school. I've been waiting to be poisoned," Jake said.

"I'm sure you're fine," Nyssa said. "Besides if he is going to poison any of the Gryffindors I don't think it is going to be you."

"I don't know... I once burnt a whole in his shoe and foot," Jake laughed lightly, looking at this glittery hands and frowning.

An owl attempted to land in Nyssa's lap but Bloddy made a horrible squawk in Nyssa's ear that scared the owl into settling for Jake's lap. Nyssa took the letter while giving Bloddy a reprimanding look. "I completely forgot about that," Nyssa said to herself with a grimace scribbling a reply and sending the owl on its way. "Have you ever met Blodeuwedd?" she asked Jake moving the barn owl to her lap.

"No I haven't but it's always nice to meet another one of your friends," Jake said smiling. "Hello there, Blodeuwedd."
