She lunged towards the candy and grabbed it before it landed on the ground. Phew. She escaped that catastrophe narrowly. Before any more harm could come to her food, she took a bite and looked at the source of all this. "Hello," she said through a mouthful of chocolate. Nothing would be gained by being angry at her, after all. Norah jumped at the sound of the girl's cry, but her shoulders relaxed at the sight of the relief on the girl's face when she ensured the safety of her chocolate. Anybody with such an affinity for sweets surely couldn't be too evil. And anyway, she didn't look to upset about being tripped over so that had to be a good sign. "Hi," she replied. "I'm Norah. I'm a first year," she added in case her height and fundamental cluelessness hadn't made that clear already. She couldn't really tell what year the girl was in, but even sitting down it was clear she was taller than Norah. Most people were, of course, but that wasn't the point. Once again she had to restrain herself from bouncing with excitement. She was talking to someone who didn't seem to hate her in any obvious way! If that didn't warrant some celebratory chocolate, she didn't know what did. Norah unwrapped a chocolate frog and took a bite. Perfect. |
