When Dahlia came and sat close to everyone, Quinn automatically liked a lot about her. This helped him to perk up much more. "I really like your name. Dahlias are one of my favorite flowers—I brought one to school with me, actually. And your Pygmy puff is adorable! I saw some in Diagon Alley over the summer, and I really want one!" Quinn smiled, but then made sure to reign it in a bit. Atlas wasn't around, but he still didn't feel much like having sweets. "I-I don't really want any candy right now, though. Thanks."

Quinn looked at Ash quizzically. He understood now why she brought up fire a lot. "Oh. That's, um... good to know..?" He could tell Ash was uncomfortable with the subject, but he thought this might be something good to know about. "H-how did you, um... accidentally-but-not-accidentally set the forest on fire..?"
