How was that a show of being well rounded?

A brow quirk happened.

"So what? I can walk in stilettos. Try that sometime." THAT was hard work, bro. Like REAL hard to master. Any old fool could do some flips. Like probably Dora could if she was inclined to get up and do so? Which she wasn't.

And then the question... that she didn't QUITE have an answer for. Not a logical one anyway. And she wasn't trying to sway anyone's opinion on them, or anyone else for that matter, so she opted for a shrug. Nothing more. Her reasons, whether understandable to others or not were her own. "I have my reasons," she muttered before flexing her wrist to make her wand slide into her hand. Distractedly, she twirled it between two fingers and sighed.

And again with a question that she didn't want to answer, really. Especially because her reason for thinking Hirsch, or anyone else for that matter, was rude was a personal peeve. Like, she didn't appreciate being laughed at. It was patronizing and rude, but that was her THING. So another shrug. But no further explanation or comments were going to be made on this one.

"Because I am aware of my surroundings and get away quickly I guess. And I am honest about it if confronted... which kind of means people have known what I did, but they never CAUGHT me anyway. Anyhow, it is important to be sneaky. Make yourself unseen. I learned how to move around without anyone noticing me a long time ago. People just don't... pay any attention to me. And I prefer it that way," she said with ANOTHER shrug. Yay for shoulder muscle exercise? Or whatever muscle that was. "Best way to learn is to start watching people and things around you. Be quiet and observe. Then you start to learn."

Zoryn just gave Dora a big ol' shrug. "Sounds like a pretty good idea to me," life would be SO much easier if they could just quit school once they learned what they needed to. Mhm. 'Cept, Zoryn would have to stay cause she hadn't learned enough Charms and DADA yet and those were REAL useful for the real world. Muggle Studies and Herbology, however? Definitely not. There was logic to her madness, you SEEEEE???

"Oooooooh," Zorn grinned. "I will! 'cept I don't have any so I'd have to borrow yours," she nodded LOADS. Let a twelve year old borrow your stilettos? Definitely a horrible AWESOME IDEA. Aheeeeeeeeem.

She wasn't satisfied with Dora's answers (or lack thereof) to her next questions... "Sounds like you don't know why," at least Zoryn thought so. How come she didn't want to say? Didn't make much sense to Zoryn who always said absolutely everything that crossed her mind. Not like she was gonna be a bad secret keeper or anything. So really, there was absolutely no reason for the older girl to keep it to herself. In Zor's excellent, professional opinion. "Anyways, I think the IMPS are super fun to watch, she began. "I wish I could play!! Even though it looks kinda exhausting," not to mention, all the competitors seemed to be super mad every time they made it back to the stands.

"Your patronus was EPIC!!!!!!!!!" She jumped up from her seat momentarily to raise her hands and SHOW just how EPIC she thought it was. "The dementor was all like 'woooooooo' and you were all like 'BAM BAM BAM!!!!!'" It was aweeeeeeeeeeesome. Zoryn wanted to learn how to do a patronus like that.

Something else she needed Dora to teach her how to do. And speaking of which, being sneaky was also on that list. "I'm honest," she chimed in. Maybe a little too honest. Sort of. "...... Quiet??? Observant??????" WHAT WERE THOSE FOREIGN WORDS AND WHAT DID THEY MEAN!??! "On second thought, maybe I'll just stick to being cute 'n invincible 'cause that other stuff sounds like a lot of work." Yeah she just decided.
