"... maybe it's always hungry? Which is why it eats kids? Maybe if we bring it food regularly it won't eat people?" Look at her making intelligent conclusions. Maybe she'd end up in Ravenclaw after all! Hah.

Hehehhehehehehe. Look at Sam (the boy) freaking out over a name. Hehhehehe. Genny looked very proud of herself for a moment before the new girl revealed her name. Now, Genny simply laaaaaughed loudly, "You're both Sams," very funny for some reason. "It would be fun for you two to end up in the same house." Grin. "Guess you'll have to take on Sharksy, huh?" To boy!Sam. Hehehhee.

"S'not? Why'd she call ya dat then? S'a bit 'arsh." She looked at Genny somewhat pointedly for an explanation, although her gaze through the darkness was broken as the boy announced his own name. So that's why she'd thought someone was calling her!

"Sam's a good name," she said with a nod and grin. She hadn't met another Sam before, and she thought it really cool she'd met an actual boy Sam. As opposed to her just looking like a boy, that was. "It ain't dat funny," she commented, shooting another look at Genny. They hadn't even left this side of the lake yet, and she was starting to wonder whether the girl was being contentious on purpose. "Short fa S'man'fa, ain't it?" she explained to boy Sam. "But Sam's safa on the street," and she'd forgotten how to spell Samantha anyways.

And they met recently. Well, that was uninformative, but she had no intention of prying. Instead, she picked up on Genny's house comment. "Da evver of ya know the 'ouse you wanna be in?"
And now they were on the subject of feeding the giant squid. "If we're providing human sacrifices to feed the squid, I know where we can start," Sam said, coincidentally looking straight at Genny. Yes, introducing him as Sharksy would have consequences, see?

Why did Genny call him that, she asked? "'Cause she's weird," he answered over the redhead's laughter. And when that laughter subsided enough for her to say that he ought to take on the nickname Sharksy simply because there were two Sams, boy Sam rolled his eyes. He wasn't even going to dignify that with a response!

"It is a good name," he agreed. An amused smirk danced around his lips when he caught girl Sam throwing Genny a look. Hah! Smirk still fixed in place, he returned his eyes to his redhead friend and gave a tacit look of triumph.

There were times when Sam had to concentrate somewhat hard on deciphering girl Sam's accent. 'Sam' was safer than 'Samantha' on the street? That was what she'd said, yes? His brow furrowed slightly. That was an odd thing to say. "Mine's short for Samuel." Naturally, it wasn't short for Samantha too because that was a girl's name!

"I'd like Gryffindor, but I think I might be put in Ravenclaw, which I also wouldn't mind." He already knew Genny's answer to this. "How about you?"
