She spotted an older student looking for a partner and planted herself in front of him. "I'm Phoebe. I'm a good learner and I want to learn to beat people with magic, and I want to be your partner. And you can say no, but you should say yes, because I'm pretty annoying." But chaaaaaaarming.

Oh for the love of— small person. He was not in the mood to be some prepubescent whirlwind's babysitter. Alas, Alessandro took a cursory glance around the room and came to the conclusion that no one was coming to save him.

He dug deep, waaaaaay deep down, for that reflex of politeness that kept him from scowling every moment of every day and even managed to offer the small person a smile. "I'm Alessandro," he introduced himself. "It's nice to meet you, Phoebe." It was not. It was decidedly unnice to meet her. SIGH.

He asked the question he was fairly certain he already had the answer to with a thin line for a mouth, "Have you ever dueled before?" Al doubted it.
