She examined the box of Bertie Bott's beans and opened it carefully, choosing one. Botts made her think of her cousin, her cousin made her think of her family and her family made her think of home. Though this was an exciting experience, she couldn't help but feel a the teeniest bit homesick. The first thing to do in a new place was to make friends and that wasn't hard. She glanced around to see if she could spot anyone who wasn't already engaged in a conversation (it was rude to interrupt conversations) Perhaps someone would find her, even? She was totally polite and approachable looking, right? Of course! She'd even share her candy.
Jade wandered to the 'meet and greet' area and saw that there were crowds of people. Nope that wasn't for her at the moment so she walked out on to the little balcony where there was another person, a woman, there staring into a bag of Bertie Bott's Beans.
Jade smiled and stopped just beside the woman, coughing and clearing her throat before saying
"Hey. So you're also escaping the crowd back there huh?"
