"Relatively. Just starting Hogwarts this year." He replied honestly, giving her a quick smile of gratitude for not asking. Phew! "What about you?"
Kurumi smiled, more out of relief than anything else. She was glad that, for once, her assumptions about something hadn't been entirely off. "
I'll be a 4th year this coming term," she smiled, nodding her head. "
I'm in Gryffindor house, erm, I don't suppose you know about the different houses at Hogwarts, do you?" Kurumi didn't want to sound like she was talking gibberish at him. She remembered running into an older student when she was going into her first year. She hadn't understood a word he was saying - not to mention all the talk about the Sorting Hat. "
Selina is in Gryffindor as well."
Kurumi's hands went to her pockets where she felt her badge. Oh yeah...THAT.

Dangerous but Beatrice claimed herself not responsible if anything were to happen.
The older woman raised her eyebrow at the interaction between the three before answering their question. "4 sickles a ride. Lasts a few minutes or so. Depends when I get bored" she stated. "Pay a little extra and I may be able to squeeze in a couple more minutes or so" she raised her eyebrow once more and waited for their response.[/COLOR]

The pair had just met up after a long couple of weeks without one another and she was already getting distracted and going all over the place. Was Selina really that boring? She had to have been.
It was then that she saw Kurumi was over talking to a boy with a plethora of cuts on his face. Did they know one another? Was he a carnie? No he couldn't have been... he looked not a day over twelve. She approached the pair just in time as Kurumi was introducing Jack to Selina and vice versa. Selina extended her hand and said, "Pleasure to meet you, Jack. Your going to be a first year? And well I'm a third year."
Then she heard a voice of someone who was beckoning the trio of them over to the stand. When they got over to the woman she told them the price of the tickets and that she would give them extra time if they payed her extra. Selina sighed and took out her wallet. Putting her hand up to the silence the other two she payed for all three of their tickets. The woman could have the 12 sickles, she didn't mind, "Here. Take it." Then, disgusted at the woman's behavior-- wasn't the Carnival for fun and joy? Why did they need to pay extra-- with the extra charge, Selina slipped the woman a few extra sickles, "There... is that all right?"
Kurumi merely blinked at the audacity of the woman. Honestly? Trying to weasel extra money out of them. Where was Walnut when she needed him? No, she shouldn't wish the wrath of the feline's pee on anyone, it was just too cruel.
Just as Kurumi reached into her bag for her own coin purse, Selina's hand was in her face. She knew what that meant: Selina wasn't going to let either of them pay for it. "
At least let me pay for some popcorn," she whispered to Selina as the girl handed over the coins.
