In other words, she was going on get conveniently lost in the crowd and hope this girl didn't end up a Slytherin. Then, once they got to the common room, the girl would start asking for her candy.
...but she didn't like chocolate?! Sierra sneered a little at that. Oh, well. She could do with some gum and such. It would all be free in the longrun. "Droobles Best Bubble Gum and Jelly Slugs are pretty good," she remarked. "Oh, and Sugar Quills, too. If you eat them in class, it looks like you're deep in thought." Sierra gestured toward the line. "Go ahead. Make your day." ...and mine, as well. "Buy 'em out."
Tori did indeed have money. She pulled a small but stuffed black velvet bag out of her purse and jingled in from one palm to the other. "That's
so nice of you to offer," Tori smiled at the other girl, but did not exactly agree to her offer.
She was rather possessive of her candy. "Hello there. I'll take.... four of everything. And extra Bertie Bott's, and extra extra Droobles. And a dozen sugar quills."
She smiled politely at the witch behind the trolley. "Please." As the witch started handing over the packages of candy, Tori turned and beckoned the other girl over. "Here ya go," she said sweetly, piling the candy in the girl's arms til she could hardly see over the top of the sugary mountain. "Thanks again for carrying these for me. You'll just
have to stop by our compartment. I insist."
Obviously, so she could drop the goods off. Tori was going to make her walk in front of her, too, so she wouldn't sneak off with anything. Slytherins think alike, it seems.
