He liked this, he LIKED not being treated like a dork.It was.....cool.

Should he have probably sat down about then? Probably, he didn't though. He didn't want to. He was just gonna stand here and pretend he was COOL. Maybe they would actually THINK he was cool?

"how's it going, homedog?"

He was being hip,right?
Homedog? Was that really how people talked around here? ...Dang. Dallin really hoped he wouldn't start talking like that after being here for a while.

"It's going pretty good," he answered before pressing his lips tightly together. He didn't know if he wanted to laugh, or what, but laughing probably wouldn't be a good idea anyway. Most people didn't take kindly to peole laughing at them.

"How's it... erm... going, uh -" If he was looking for some nickname like homedog, it wasn't gonna happen. "How're you? I'm Dallin."

Ellie nodded and listened intently. Many new transfers this year, but his story was one of the most interesting. "Hey, being muggleborn isn't bad." she suggested lightly. "A lot of times, they are the smartest. Top of the class even." She winked. She felt like saying Wow, I'm really proud of you for being your own best self. But she decided against it. She wasn't his coach at life... She smiled at him. "You know, that's really cool actually. I mean I don't really know your life story at all, but it's good that you're capable of making your own decisions and making a new beginning for yourself." She shrugged. Just saying.
He smiled at Ellie's assurance about muggleborns. "Oh, I didn't mean anything bad by it. It's just that I have two sisters that are witches, and so everybody expected me to be perfectly fine with magic and stuff like that." He shrugged. Magic surely didn't come easily to him. Add that to the fact that he didn't like school, and you didn't exactly get the best student wizard.

"Yeah?" He chuckled lightly. Maybe it hadn't been as cheesy as he thought. Or maybe it was, and girl's didn't mind cheesy. Hmm. "I'll admit that it's a bit nerve-wracking, being in another country where you really don't know anyone. But every seems to talk about Hogwarts like it's this great and wonderful thing... I dunno. Maybe I'll feel at home here, and it won't be so..." He wasn't going to say scary... "Weird, after a while."

After a pause, he shook his head to clear his thoughts. "Anyway, how about you? What's your story?" He hoped this wasn't too forward... but he felt funny talking about himself like that, and not asking about the other person.
