Not. At. All.

"I know! Thank you!" Maggie beamed at the fellow Slytherin, and tugged on her dress a little. Maybe she could tug it further down to cover MORE of her legs. What if she pulled up her feet and sat on them? But then again, that was very much UN-ladylike so no. Not an option.

Only when Dot mentioned the cloak did Maggie look at it properly. It was HUGE. "I'm fine." She was really not. "But we can still share if you want." She'd decided that being seen sharing a cloak with Dot definitely trumped pneumonia. The older girl wasn't THAT bad. Despite the fact that she did some things that Maggie did not agree with.

At all.

See? Just like that, a comment was taken as a compliment, and Dot had gotten away with not hurting any feelings but not saying anything untrue or disingenuous. She settled on the bench next to Maggie and draped her cloak around the other girl's shoulders.

Now they were both warm.

"You're probably fine, but I'm getting warm and this is better for me. Why are you out here, anyway? I think there's still pudding in the Great Hall. I like puddings... we could go inside and get some?" Because it was actually quite chilly now that she didn't have extra cloth swathing her legs.
