Merritt hesitated, trying to think of the right word. Cozy definitely would not be the word to use to describe the area known as Bullworth; Quaint, maybe... perhaps endearing. No, definitely not endearing. Charming was for sure a no go, as were sweet and attractive. Cunning would totally fit, but would Crabblesnitch accept such a description of the new pamphlets?

I'm so not spending it working on that stupid essay, and, like, I don't think Mandy will let you, either, Mer." At that Merritt rolled her eyes and looked back at her screen, the curser still blinking at her expectantly. Furrowing her brows she leaned further onto the window sill, racking her brain, with a sigh she gave in a typed out what she knew the headmaster would want to hear.
