She'd never ever tried them - nobody back home wore them, cause they just weren't practical... and most of them preferred being barefoot anyway... maybe she could borrow some from someone and try them out.

Hmm...

"Left behind..? But there are so many people around here. You can't really be left behind when it's so busy, can you?" Rowan, of course, didn't realise the full meaning of what the older girl had said... "My mum once left me behind at a festival by accident but I made friends with a lady who had a shop there and she gave me some orange juice and then my grammy came to collect me after a little while. It was actually pretty great cause the lady let me try on some of the jewellery she was selling and she gave me a tiny star necklace to take home with me." Not relevant, really, but that had never phased her before.

"And I don't think I'm really scared of anything cause you can usually get yourself out of most things." she said, tapping a finger on her chin as she thought. "I think I might be afraid of... um..." Okay, this was difficult. "I think I would be afraid if I was doing divination and saw that something bad was going to happen." She glanced at the paper... but the question was still there... That was too much of a hypothetical fear then...

What about something that worried her.. "Oh! Sometimes I get worried that I'll miss loads at home whilst I'm here at school because none of my family can come to Hogwarts or anything." That mainly made her sad though... but it was a start.
So Rusty wasn't lying when she said she talked too much. It was a ginger-related phenomenon, obviously, and all Dot could do was nod along and hope that somehow Rusty's oversharing would clear out their question. Or not?

"That... is sort of like being left behind. It sounds like we're both sort of afraid of the same thing." That sort of connection had to be enough to satisfy the Headmaster, plus it had involved some real digging on Rusty's part, and the old dude wanted them to share and whatever. One check of the card, and it seemed that they'd met whatever requirement the charm on the card required.

Next question? "Looks like next we have to say where we'll be in ten years. Or where we want to be. But can we go back to some of these stories you've shared later? Because I'm very curious about some of that stuff." And she wanted to see the star necklace, because it sounded beautiful. "I'm going to be a Rockette in New York City, and I hope to be involved in fashion... designing, I hope. And married to Kyroh and we'll probably have babies by then." Because that's what Kyroh said. Yep. "You?"
