@astrid--johnson // Mina and Astrid
Mina leaned her head against the window in the library as she flipped to the next page of her book. It was a good book but densely written and she often found her mind wandering. Rain pattered against the roof. Mina let out a sigh, giving up and closing the book for now. She glanced outside and a small smile spread across her face. Astrid was heading towards the building. Mina gave her a friendly wave through the window. Even though the girl was a couple years older than her, she was probably one of the only people Mina would consider a friend. When Mina had first arrived, she had been skittish with everybody and rebuffed anybody who tried to be friendly with her, but Astrid had seemed to make it her personal mission to be nice to Mina, and Mina couldn’t help but like her, even if she was a child of Hecate and had real live magical powers that gave Mina a headache if she thought about it too much. Astrid never seemed to use magic that much around Mina, luckily, and so their friendship was normal and nice, unlike most of everything else that happened to Mina in the last year.
As Astrid approached her, Mina gave her a bright smile. “How was... uh, training?” she guessed.
