Looking up from her chaotic good arrangement of school supplies, Anna smiled wide at Nadia and gave her a wave as well. "Hey," she greeted while unnecessarily scooting her seat to the side a bit while the Gryffindor settled in. Her attentioned returned to the professor for a moment and she nearly offered the man a quick round of applause because technically he hadn't denied that was what he was doing and the actual tap shoes were nearby in his office sooooooooo maybe it was possible that someday they would be graced with a performance. Oh! Maybe he could even be a special guest in Drama Club sometime and teach them all a step or two? Head full of possibilities, she somehow managed to contain her excitement and offered a bright smile and nod instead. "Did you know he could tap dance too?" she whispered giddily to Nadia just mere moments before the lesson began and it was time to zip her lips and focus.
Focus as best she could, that is. The topic of entertainment was an easy one for her to get lost in.
She hadn't ever tried her hand at video games personally, but she certainly knew of their popularity and the mention of a dance performance just made her lean over her desk a bit more to see if Professor Leroy was still warming up or not. She hadn't been to any concerts either but she had heard a lot about them from Big Grumpy Bear Brother Joseph and had received a concert recording of Joshua Miller's latest European tour so she knew sort of what it all sounded like. Sporting events was something she was a tad more familiar with, only because of attending quidditch and gobstone matches at Hogwarts and the occasional U-17 event to support her peers and friends. The nice thing about aaaaaaaall these things was that they were not exclusively muggle nor exclusively magical, which was a really nice concept to consider. Her own hand was soon raised to offer her own contribution. "It's...something much simpler than what my classmates have suggested already ... also doesn't require any electricity like almost all the suggestions thus far can require on some level... but... jigsaw puzzles are another great form of entertainment," she smiled and brushed a couple of wild curls away from her face. It was a task that proved to be a little more complicated than initially thought since a couple strands of her hair got tangled up with her nose ring but a crisis was easily averted. "A perk to them being that not only are they fantastic for cognitive function, but they can be cheaply made and incredibly long-lasting AND recyclable."
And, thankfully, her own love and appreciation for jigsaw puzzles had not been tainted by the complications brought about by simple question from Reuben. In fact, she was now officially Ministry endorsed and even gently mandated to continue to solve jigsaw puzzles and thus her own personal collection continued to grow!
