 be curious, not judgmental
Becca's face fell. She was never too fond of Slytherins, especially after the run-in with Paris, but that was an awful experience for anyone. "Oh... I'm really sorry," she frowned. "I would've been completely furious if something like that happened in my common room. You seem to be taking it pretty well, though. But, I guess you've had some time to get over it."
She peered out the window and looked at the sky as they neared the door. "I probably should go. But I'll see you around, all right? And... Natasha? Thanks for talking to me." Awkward for Becca, but the girl deserved to know she was truly appreciated. It was funny how people seemed to flock to her and be nice when she was upset. Buuut maybe that was just because she didn't wear as fierce of an expression when she was unhappy.
