But suddenly another girl came into the common room and made an announcement.
Violet chuckled to herself, since they had just been working on those in Potions Seminar, and she wondered whether these had Croakoa or coffee beans and hot peppers in them. Was this girl trying to buy their loyalty with chocolate frogs? Well, Violet supposed that was one way--though she wondered what sort of bargain she would be making if she took one.
Then she noticed the embroidery on the bag--Io Craft-Baker? Had this kid made these frogs herself? They looked a lot better than the ones Violet had managed in potions--her brewing skills were excellent, but she was rubbish at art, so her attempts to mold a frog were rather embarrassing. She got up and walked over to take a better look. "Hey, isn't that your name on the bag? Did you make these yourself? Because if so, they look rather good." Quote:

Her eyes went back to the book in her lap. Her DADA books was beginning to be her favorite to study. She looked up from her book to acknowledge the other girl. "Yes, that's my name. It's after one of Jupiter's moons. Its a family thing. I just got these before I came. My Mother buys them at Diagon Alley when she goes. They are delicious. I'll make sure she buys more for me to share." She was so pleased, after all, building trust is a way to also gain loyalty.
"Uh, what are your names?" She asked the other girls. Quote:

"Thanks, don't mind if I do." She replied, taking a slightly struggling frog from the bag. If you overthink it, it was kind of morbid you know, animating something edible. It was like giving your chicken a name before cooking it for dinner.
Once she had finished her first chocolate, and Violet had taken one for herself. "My name is Serena, 4th year; and as you already know, this girl here is Violet, she's in 2nd year." She wiped of fingers off her handkerchief and held out her hand "Its nice to meet you Io. Why don't you join us over by the fire? I was just telling Violet all about my old school, Ilvermorny."
