"Have you never read Hogwarts, A History?"

And then she simply sat down on her backside in the grass and smiled slightly. "No friends here with me, kid. Just clearing my head a bit. What's your name?"

Sutton rubbed her forehead where the girl had poked her. It reminded her so strongly of something her sisters would have done, that it simultaneously gave her goosebumps and a warm, fuzzy feeling that made her want to smile. "A Whomping Willow..." she mused aloud as she gazed at the tree, now immobile once more. "No, I haven't read it, but I guess I should. This is my first year at Hogwarts. I was homeschooled before. My parents are muggles... wanted me to be normal, but they also didn't want me to burn the house down when I get angry, so they just brought in a private teacher..." she explained sadly. Frankly her knowledge of magic in general was very limited, let alone knowing anything about Hogwarts.

As the girl joined her on the ground, it brightened Sutton's spirits slightly. "My name is Sutton. What's yours?"
