She followed him, sitting herself on the bench next to him and gave a small smile as he mentioned that it was their luck. The Slytherin could definitely understand where this boy was coming from.
Shrugging she answered his question, "only once, a simple charm that my brother taught me" that was probably the thing that bugged her, she hadn't really done much yet. "Have you?" she asked curiously, wondering if he'd learnt any spells, or taught himself any yet.
"Well... at least the people are still nice" she offered, a larger smile forming on her face, without the sad tinge the last smile she had as she looked at Forrest. He was definitely included in her statement that people were nice, she loved his company already.
So she did learn a spell. And she wasn't... how do you say...
afraid to perform it or anything. Which meant that she could touch her wand too. Judging by the way she phrased it, she was also successful at it.
But of course. She was a pureblood. Of course she would be successful at anything related to magic.
Her parents, in contrast with his, were magical
themselves.
He shook his head. He'd keep all these thoughts to himself, of course. Instead, he said
"It's not even a week yet, we'll sure learn something." She
certainly would, but he wasn't so sure about him. He had issues to sort out like touching his wand at last.

"Yeah, they are pretty helpful." He smiled a little. It was so,
so different than how it had been back in his old school.
"Will you try out for Quidditch." The newest vocabulary he learnt from Alexa. Heh.
