"You know Sam," it wasn't a question, it was a statement. More to herself than Anna, realizing why she thought she had seen this particular older girl before. Because she had, over summer.
It was a rare occasion she blushed, but running into the Head Girl was enough to keep the crimson visible in her naturally slightly tanned face. "I.. sorry," She repeated, unable to stop the words from coming out. The small girl gave a nod of her curly haired head, answering shyly "I am. It's nice to meet you, Anna"
Being introduced to a boy that had greeted the nice Head Girl, Katie waved her free hand 'hello'. "Kaitlynnh Mae. My friends call me Katie," She replied, glancing up at Anna.
Feeling someone brush past her, Kaitlynnh was sure it was on purpose when her gaze turned only to see one of her friends. As usual, her dark eyes narrowed at THAT name; blasted boy STILL hadn't told her what it meant! And now he was walking away from her! "I'm,.. Cy's, URGH." She murmured, letting out a sigh of annoyance and shook her head. She was going to have to catch up with him in a moment. "It's rude to walk away you know," Katie called after him, even though he may not hear it.
Anna noticed the way the little girl sighed. She was probably relieved her little embarrassing moment was over. Anna could remember a time when moments like that embarrassed her for days. That was back when she didn't know as many people, and the fear of failure always overweighed her good reasoning skills. Now that she was older and knew more people, she wasn't so easily embarrassed. As a matter of fact, hanging around Cale helped Anna to realize that the occasional fall or stuble to the ground was nothing at all to be ashamed of. "Relax. We all have moments like those from time to time," Anna said to her.
Anna wrinkled her face in confusion. What was the girl talking about Sam for? "Sam? Sam...Gryffindor Sam? Yes, I do know---oh, wait! You were with us in Greece over the summer, weren't you?" Anna face brightened when she realized that she somewhat knew this girl. "We didn't really get a chance to talk to one another, though. Nice to meet you, Kaitlynnh." All too soon, Kaitlynn, or Katie as Anna had just heard her say, became distracted calling out to some friend of her's from down the hallway. Anna poked her head back out into the hallway, as well, watching in interest as some little boy passed Katie right on by.

She sighed to herself, and continued to walk through the back of the train looking for an empty compartment, passing by so many people with all their friends. "Bummer." She said quietly. Did it have to be so blatently obvious that she was the new girl in town?
"Bummer? Why bummer?" Anna asked, turning towards a girl who was walking throughout the back part of the train. Anna eyed the girl for a few moments, trying to figure out if she knew her, but when it became obvious that she didn't, Anna smiled and introduced herself. "I'm Anna Greingoth, a seventh year," she said. "I don't think I've seen you around here before, though. Are you a new student?"
The girl didn't appear to be a first year, but then again, Hogwart's was often receiving transfers from other schools or students who'd previously been homeschooled. Maybe this girl fell into one of those categories. Anna couldn't imagine what else she'd have been doing prior to her move to Hogwart's.

Now THAT would horrible. But... it would have totally happened if he wasn't there so ha. OMG OMG she was coming in.
"Ohaaiiiii." That's my friend Cam? FRIEND? She obviously didn't know that they were unofficially boyfriend and girlfriend now that that Cale is out of the way. Yeaaah. But he didn't mind, maybe that girl that bumped into her caused her some head trauma which came up from her pancreas, to her brain where the memory loss occurred.
He looked at his lemurs as they were eating the insects. Disgusting, but they were eating it all nicely. And... politely, yeah. "Oh yeah, they're my new pets! Juni gave it to me... well actually Cela did but it was Juni's pets originally. I am now their awesome owner," he said with a grin. "That's Mosi," he pointed to the shy-looking lemur, "and that's Nakato."
Anna was looking in disgust and well, he had a LOT to say about that. It was wrong to do and nature had the chance to give these dead insects to these poor animals. If there was no nature... he held back a tear. He was a MAN. He would eat an insect himself to show her that it was... natural? But not now.
Cam looked at the other girl and waved a 'hello'. "Well I'm not really a second year, I'm more like a 1st 3/4 year since I'm not at Hogwarts yet. Nice to meeet ya anyways!" He stared at her hand. She wanted to shake hands with him. He was uncertain, very uncertain. What could she have been touching? What could she have been holding? All he could think was germs and icky bacteria. He had grown a fear of some girls, some he knew, some randomly. This girl... he didn't know but he just stared at her hand with a nervous face. What's worse is, she could've had cooties. Oh, didn't he have some hand sanitizer in his luggage? ...He shook her hand and then managed a smile.
He had just now, made a risky action.
When Cam starting chatting again, Anna made her way into the compartment and took a seat right next to him. She wanted to get a good look at those lemurs. They were interesting creatures, and she'd never had many encounters with them. She watched with interest as they continued to climb all over Cam's shoulders. Their eating habits were still disgusting, but hey, they were lemurs. It wasn't like they were expected to feast on Chocolate Frogs or mashed potatoes or something. "Hello, Mosi and Nakato," she cooed, speaking softly to the little creatures. Anna leaned in closely to watch the lemurs, while Cam talked with Katie.
"So, Cam, we never really got to finish our conversation in Diagon Alley. The last I heard, you were saying I was supposed to have spoken to someone whose name begins with the letter R?" she asked. "What was that all about? Who were they, and what were they supposed to be telling me?"
