The redheaded was only checking out the swamp which Fred & George had left many, many years ago and which had been preserved.
This was a girl in her own year. Chyler seemed nice all though the posture earlier had been a glimpse of someone who was quick to get angry or rather get defensive. Sophie was in need of a real girl friend at Hogwarts. She wasn’t desperate but talking to another girl from time to time about girl stuff could be welcome change to just boys. "Pleasure to meet you Chyler! Yes, I’m a fifth year and prefect."
Sophie met Chyler’s smile with a bigger, brighter one asking "What classes do you like?" simple and straight forward, enough. It was best to tread carefully if she wanted to make a good friend out of Chyler and not just an acquaintance.
Indeed she was a prefect. Chyler nodded with a small, polite smile, then moved to the other side of Sophie to lean against the wall. If they were going to talk, she didn't want to be standing up straight. Classes? That was... a very Ravenclaw like question of the Gryffindor prefect to ask. The redhead decided that she quite liked her. Straight and to the point, no weird questions.
"Well, I'm aiming for a job in Healing after graduation, so from the classes I'm taking I'm quite liking Potions the best," she replied, quite proud of herself for not answering with a simple "potions".
"What about you?" she asked, her green eyes swiveling down the corridor as she detected movement from a person walking down, eyes narrowing ever so slightly at the boy who came, did some things, and left.
Salander - the baboon from Potions. And every other class, it seemed. At least he hadn't seen her now. Slightly relieved, though not showing it at all, she turned back to Sophie. Yes, person with whom she was having a conversation with. She HAD to tell Sam later.
