Bay looked up as someone addressed her. Swiping at the tears that had formed in her eyes she focused on the face in front of her. Wait....he was familiar. Alec! Right. And he was offering her candy? She laughed a bit and then laughed a bit harder when yet another older Puff offered her gummy worms.
Her stomach wasn't complaining but they didn't seem to understand. "Thank you. I'm hungry so I won't turn down the sweets. But...I have no money." She swallowed. There were an awful lot of people here and some or more of them could hear. "I'm an orphan. I bought my school supplies by charging it to the School's account. I can't get into the common room."
"This is absolutely preposterous! They should not be doing this."
*Walking up to the common room he frowned. It was odd that his cousin Cece sent him a bunch of knuts out of no where but now he understood. The school had gone completely mad or cheap... Romulus knew that it was one of the two. As he dug in the little bag of coins he over heard the girl and the others.*
"Here, my cousin is the healer here and sent me a load of knuts. Ill share half with you and you let me know when you run out."
*Pulling the pack open he went to give her a handful but noticed that he didn't have anything to put them in for her. Pulling the turkey sandwich his mum had packed him he put 247 of the coins in and handed the girl the bag.*
"Sorry it's not a better bag but it should get you by for awhile. I'm Romulus Tilstorm by the way."
*Turning to the group he cleared his throat a bit nervous.*
"And if anyone wants my mum sent me a charmed lunch box that fills with turkey sandwiches. She never trusted the food here and I kind of see why..."
