He picked up his broom and started to head out like everyone else, but continued to listen to the fallen girl. "Just you come from muggles right?" Altair was pretty sure about his assumption. "You just seem to be willing to jump right into things. How are you so sure any of this is safe?"

Altair nodded about her talk about planes. He of course knew everything about them. His papa was a pilot after all. He walked along side her as they headed back to the broomshed. "I'm in Hufflepuff," he answered. "It's just, well, I'm not completely understanding all of this. I had no signs of having magic and then one day I get this letter telling me I'm a wizard and my whole world is turned upside down." It was obvious that Altair wasn't the first one to go through this unknown capability, but he was struggling with understanding and accepting it. Why was he chosen? It was kind of like some of the superheroes he read about, but the troubles they faced along the way was terrifying. He wasn't ready for such a path. So far, the discovery seemed more of a burden than a blessing.

Walking up the hill toward the broomshed Robin tried to keep the broom from dragging on the grass, her robes swishing as they trudged onward. She slowly nodded at his correct assumptions
"Yeah both muggles" She confirmed and continued stumbling towards the shed keeping pace with the boy. "I'm not sure it's safe exactly, but I just tell myself to be careful and if I get hurt it's my fault for not being careful" She didn't think that made much sense so she tried to rephrase "Like I'm sure if it wasn't safe they wouldn't have us do it, and if every other first year in the school can do it so can I, I just learn the basics in the safest way I can- no broken bones, no foul" She grinned at his house mention.
"Well you are the first Hufflepuff I have met yet so congratulations!" She gave a thumbs up "I'm in Gryffindor, oh my names Robin by the way" she couldn't believe she had gone that long without introducing herself it was rude of her. She nodded with understanding at the boys story, she didn't have any major magical signals either, just unusually good luck in dodgeball when a ball came flying toward her face and mysteriously missed. Of course no one (not even she) ever noticed.
"I think you're feeling a little scared and intimidated" She said boldly, trying not to pry.
"But you should know that you won't disappoint anyone or be disappointed yourself if you try your best, that's all you really can do. If you don't try your best that's what you will really regret. You'll never know if you don't try, and if you don't try you automatically fail" She mused. It was similar to what her grandmother had told her before she left, as long as she did her best she could be proud.
