Besides, she knew Jakoby well. She knew how he could get around new people, so she figured he could use a friend to help him ease his way into the completely new setting he'd been sent to. Giggling, she said, "I'm pretty sure your heart stopped for like, a second just now."

But she wasn't going to tease him for long. She looked around the hall, noticing all the students and whatnot. Yep. This was a lot different from Jak's kitchen back home in NYC. She blew a bubble with her gum and popped it. "So, whatcha reading?" She asked, peering over at the book he had.
Jakoby was still finding it hard to believe that his best friend, LAMBRINI GODFREY, was here. RIGHT HERE in front of him. He had thought she would stay home with his mother and continue being homeschooled since her parents did not want her far from home but.... SHE WAS HERE! "You really did surprise me." He had gotten on that train back at Kings Cross thinking that he was coming here with no friends, except Edgar. His poor, pitiful cat that he had dragged to Hogwarts with him. "Adventures?" More like, a lot of panic attacks... "I'll let you have all the adventures, and I'll find a peaceful corner to read my books in." He did hear this place had a nice library, so he was going to check that place out asap. At her comment, her murmured, "Maybe it did." He got scared so easily. It was humiliating.

Uh.... He showed her the cover of his book, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. "It's about magical creatures," he explained. ".... and where to find them. It's one of my textbooks for my Care of Magical Creatures class. I thought I would get a head start on reading it." He wanted to do well in his big boy wizarding classes because they would be nothing like the classes his mother taught, and he knew they were not going to be easy.

Oh my merlin. Someone was TALKING TO HIM. Jakoby all of a sudden got nervous once more as he turned his attention to this redhead that was seated nearby. Well, she looked friendly.... "Uh --" He tried to remain calm. "Hi." He gave her a little smile as he added, "I'm, er, Jakoby."
