"Well I figured you'd shake my hand FIRST and THEN show me, but whichever you prefer," she said with a giggle.
Milton eyed her for another moment before finally shaking the crazy!ginger's hand.
"But I'm not showing you my abs. You don't deserve it today." It was a privilege, not a right. Maybe another day, though, because he didn't really mind showing off. Heh.

She didn't want to look as if she'd come over here just to talk introduce herself to Milton, so she pulled out her transfiguration book and flipped it open to the chapter they were working on in class. Can I help you???? What kind of a question was that? It was as if he thought Presley cared at all! Which she kind of did, just not the way he was acting like she did. Which didn't really make sense at all except in Presley's warped brain. "I've a right to be here, same as you," she said calmly, trying not to let her easy temper get the best of her. She could lose this game in an instant, and so much of it depended on him thinking she was at least mildly attractive, which hadn't been working out so well for her lately.
Introduction time. "I don't think we've met before. I'm Presley, by the way." There. Once it was out she couldn't take it back. Even though now she could think of a million better ways to introduce herself. She wanted to take it back and start over, but it was too late now. She'd probably lost now, and would have to find someone else. But who could be better than a sixth year Ravenclaw who happened to be the Quidditch Captian?
"Ooookaaay..." She had a right to be there... Riiiiight. He knew that, obviously. But it was just RANDOM that she RANDOMLY came over to them, said hello, and then sat down and started reading a textbook.
Or... maybe he was just being overly suspicious. But that was kind of a Milton thing.
Presley? Hmm. Didn't ring a bell. Was he that oblivious to his fellow housemates? Apparently. And it didn't really bother him.
"Milton Shacklebolt. Pleasure." Or WAS it? That was to be decided because he was still suspicious of her. And everyone.
