She spent days putting together several outfits, and now her confidence was starting to slowly diminish. What if people thought she was weird? Would they make fun of her? (She hoped not. She didn't want to get a detention on the first week for hexing another student.) Originally, it seemed like a great idea. But now...

She sighed. You never really could know what other people thought about you, could you? She would just have to walk with her back straight and head held high, just like she always did.

She turned a corner and kept walking. Her boots were starting to really bother her feet, so she looked for somewhere comfortable to stop. Suddenly, the Slytherin spotted Levi, a nice boy who she had briefly chatted with at The Three Broomsticks. He was reading some type of magazine, and had something small and black on his arm. Curiosity swept over Samira, and she made her way over. "Hi Levi," she said casually, still nervously playing with the hem of her skirt. "What's that on your arm?"

Levi flipped through the comic, sucked in by the different illustrations and vibrant action sequences on each page. It seemed like nobody around here had heard of DC or Marvel but he had been reading and collecting them ever since he was in first grade. The stories weren't exactly stimulating literary-wise but they could be pretty exciting. He had tried reading a few wizard comics but they never seemed to entice him as much as the muggle ones such as X-men and Batman. He wished he could find somebody else who shared the same taste as him but it was practically impossible.

As a voice spoke up nearby, he lifted his wide dark eyes from the comic and smiled at the Slytherin girl. Samira was one of the first new friends he had made in Diagon Alley and he was glad to see a friendly face for once. Most of the time, he kept to himself and avoided other students like the plague. He wasn't intentionally antisocial but he didn't trust a lot of people and he had several reasons why he couldn't. However, she had proved herself to be a decent person so he gestured to space beside him.

"Hi Samira!" the Gryffindor chirped, putting the comic down. It would have been rude to read while she was talking to him. "Oh, Vlad? He's my bat. I guess you could say he's my familiar since I don't have an owl or anything. Er...so how are you doing?"
