It was unlike his brother to not talk to them all while he was gone somehow, so they'd all been kind of freaked. And of course had no idea what was happening until closer to the end. Noah hadn't even been reachable when Evan received his letter. He peered at the jars when she suggested they throw something at them. "You think they might be glass?" The fact she was not serious went over his head. He was more concerned and concentrated on the fact he could NOT afford all of those candies if they broke stuff.

He did not notice what his question did to her, until she started talking again and he turned to look at her and noticed her lower lip. His eyes widened a little as he realized maybe he shouldn't ask people considering how scary the last term was. He chose to focus now on the fact Noah was FINE and coming home but... others might still be dealing with a lot of residual feelings over everything that had happened. He'd have to consider that next time. "I get that. My sisters and I missed our older brother too..." So much. They had such a HUGE stack of things to send to him once they had notification he could contact them again. "I can hardly WAIT to see him when he gets home." And saw all the things they had done to his room when they thought he was ignoring them on purpose.

Oops.

"We do have chocolate. And I've already tried a chocolate frog." Which was about the only thing he'd heard listed that sounded different and like it'd be worth trying. Because experience. He watched as she surveyed the shelves, so glad for the assistance and that the decision was being taken off of him. There were so many OPTIONS he'd been a little bit on the verge of internally panicking about it all. When she offered a jar, he pulled out one of the little bags he held for candy and took a couple pieces and dropped it in, making sure he had enough for Lisa and Maya too. "That sounds like it would be fun! What are the Fizzing Whizzbees like?" Poprocks maybe? That's what it SOUNDED like anyways. Or maybe sugar dip? "Thank you for the help and suggestions!"

Did she think they might be glass? Was he being sarcastic or serious? She couldn’t quite tell. She thought her joke had been obvious but maybe not. “Errr…they’re glass. But you know, if you still want to throw something at them, I won’t stop you” . She wasn’t a trouble maker per say, but did tend to get into trouble at times, usually with Adam. To say that the boy in front of her was weird would have been an understatement but luckily for him, Ingrid was used to weird. Weird was her middle name. ~~Well, actually it was Starling but…~~

The lower lip was soon back to its normal position but that didn’t stop her from getting momentarily distracted at the idea of her siblings being stuck in a castle, forgetting her and almost disappearing out of existence! How cool and scary is that! Moving her eyes away from the jars, she nodded at the boy for a moment, unsure exactly what to say, instead, she simply settled for a “Mhm” and gave him a quick smile as a thank you, eager to move on to other topics.

“Chocolate frogs are pretty fun but you know, it’s just chocolate” She continued, seizing onto this subject as quick as possible, still holding the jar out to him now as he took some gum from inside. “Fizzing Whizzbees? It’s one of those things you need to…try to understand. I guess they’re kind of sherberty?” . Let him figure out that they make you float a few inches off the ground. It was more fun that way and honestly, she wanted to see his reaction. “It’s okay. I mean, I think I’m going to get some of the Giant Gumball’s at the top there…”. Ingrid froze, her eyes lingering on the jar of gumball’s as it slowly moved from the top shelf, way out of her reach and then slowly floated down to her new friend who’s name she didn’t even know. “Er… what just happened?” Were there ghosts here that served you or something? Or did someone just use magic to levitate it down? But…there was no one else around. Placing the jar in her hands back, she looked around, a perplexed expression on her face as she surveyed the shop around her. “Did you do that?”
