Charisa turned to eye her near empty plate. Hm, potatoes? She looked back up at the boy and fought the urge to dip her elbow into the leftover food. That would be simply childish, no?
Winston blinked at the impolite girl. What kind of a question was that? "I'm a first year," Winston said. Uh-oh. Hopefully he hadn't just told off a third year or something. That'd be bad.

"Erm...thank you, I suppose," he added, slightly confused. He was a first year. He didn't look that far ahead. He had barely even thought about the first day of classes. And just now, when the headmaster stood up, had he even realized there would be a speech.

She pondered for a second, looking around. She looked back at the boy. He looked like a first year. Young, small, nervous as heck. "You a little nervous?" She asked. She was determined to get some sort of vocal acknowledgment out of him.
Reminded of the oddly laid-back girl from earlier, Winston gave her a bewildered look. "Well, yes, I'm nervous," he said simply after a pause for consideration. Who wouldn't be?

"Nice to meet you Winston." she added, looking at the boy again. "Have you met any other friends in the train yet?"
Winston shrugged about the ceiling. He, too, had never seen anything like it. It was magnificent, but he was fairly certain they had established that. They'd also decided that it was a fine piece of magic, or at least Winston had, so he said nothing more on the topic of the ceiling.

"I did not meet anybody on the train," Winston said slowly. Oh. Was that why people sat in compartments with others? To meet people and become acquainted before the feast? Hmm. He had not realized.
