Seeing her wipe at her face, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his pack of kleenex, pulling one out of the packaging and offering it to her. "Those mirrors can be pretty brutal." He had no idea if this was true, having ignored them on his way through, but he was hoping to make her feel better so it seemed a maybe appropriate thing to say.

Oh shoot. She remembered his name. He'd been feeling so proud of himself for being able to remember Jude's at the Magical Menagerie, which had saved him from this situation where they knew name and he.... did not. He could feel himself turn a little red, merely because he felt bad. "Yeah, I'm Evan. Ravenclaw is right. Going into my fourth year. I'm sorry... I don't quite remember your name...?" The rudest of the rude, he was.

He didn't know what else to say at her thanks, so instead he focused on getting himself up off the ground and dusting off his pants from sitting on the ground. The offer of going through together sounded good to him, given the fact he was also already hopelessly lost, so he quickly accepted her invitation. "Sure, that sounds good to me." He offered her a hand to help pull her up so they could continue on their way. "Did you know this event was happening this summer?"


Who even had a packet of kleenex in their pocket? Baffled Bella accepted the handkerchief with a mumbled "Thanks," as she raised it to dry her eyes and blow her nose. When she was done, Bella felt it best to hastily explain to Evan. "I usually don't cry so much, it was just the mirrors that were so brutal. How can it even know my inner most fears and weak spots?" The words had been hurting, but it was like the mirrors could see into her soul and mind and that was SCARY.

One point to her for remembering his house and name. Maybe she was better at remembering names than she had thought. Smiling she said "It's fine if you can't remember. I'm Isabella, but everyone calls me Bella, and I'll be a third year Slytherin in september." She wasn't going to hold it against Evan since he was practically her savior. Accepting his offered hand Bella got to her feet and shook her head. "No, but it's pretty cool that Diagon Alley is 600 years old, don't you think?" Gesturing ahead of them she asked "Shall we brave seeing what mirrors meet us around the next bend in the maze?" She alteast had gone through the insulting mirror so hopefully the next mirrors were nice.
