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?"

Aside from feeling deeply betrayed and furious at him suggesting that, it would be such a noble thing to do. Beside, she believed she was strong and she'd wrestle the giant squid and win the battle and emerge a hero from the lake. For now, she just frowned at him. The suggestion was cruel. CRUEL. They were friends no more.

Calling him Sharksy was harsh? Pffft, someone wasn't fit for the most courageous house of all. Genny missed the looks the girl Sam was giving her because she reached inside her pocket and was unwrapping a gummy wand to entertain herself with on this endless trip. She did, however, saw Sharksy being all smirky and triumphant. She frowned again at her NON-friend, confused. ?????

Sam was safer on the streets? Consider Genny VERY intrigued at that statement. "How come?" She chewed on her gummy wand, staring with curious eyes at Sam.
For people having only recently met, these two were starting to sound like squabbling siblings. "Even so, dey'd get rid of it if twas a problem." Regardless of who was there first. Humans were like that. "So I dou' sacrifice is needed." Just saying, logically speaking. She wasn't supporting any one person's side here.

How come Sam was safer? Sam bit her lip, suddenly conscious of herself. She hadn't needed to worry with Dora; they'd met right there in Diagon Alley with Sam doing her thing. These two might be different, and judge her right then and there, before she'd even reached the castle. She was what she was though. No real point in hiding it.

"Less likely ta get mugged if ya look 'n' sound like a boy," she with a nonchalant shrug after a moment. "Where's I come from, anyways." Maybe they hadn't clicked onto her boyish hairstyle in the fading light.

And with that said, she considered boy Sam's reply about houses. "Why'd ya fink dat?" She was curious. She felt no such attachment to a house, although it'd be cool to be in Gryffindor with Dora. "'n wat 'bout you, Gen?"
