Looking past AJ's shoulder, the second year stared at the horses. "Oh, they're beautiful." she said with dreamy eyes. Returning her gaze to AJ (completely not seeing the Thestral) she asked, "Do you like magical creatures, AJ? What about you, Angel?"
They were beautiful weren't they?
"Oh yeah, I'm getting a unicorn as a pet." That was going to happen no matter what she was told. Her thoughts went to the helpful man who was getting her books in the library. Come to think of it... he was one of the professors here right now. The light had just went on in her head. Cool.

Oh, the lesson was starting now. AJ ended all conversations and listened to the professors hopefully say for them all to saddle up. He did say that was a surprise so it was a definite possibility. All she knew was that before her years were up at Hogwarts, she was going to ride one of those winged things.
A placement charm? Ummm... she was beginning to wonder if there was some kind of study material that she should have read before she got to school. AJ kept wondering how Angel managed to know things. Maybe her and Abby had been talking. Not wanting to get left behind she took a stab in the dark.
"Is it a charm that makes things stay put?" Heh. she used context clues and attempted an answer so that counted for something right?
