" .. and you will call me Sebastian."
Cela straightened in her seat and then slowly leaned across Daphne to draw her little finger across Seb's cheek. "You should enunciate your words a little better." She told him with genuine sweetness, followed immediately by a wicked grin. "... Seb."
What?
It was totally fitting.
"So, Seb, what are your favourite subjects? I totally dig Divination and Charms and Transfiguration. Also I'm totally a quick draw with my wand and last term I totally won duels against the head boy and the head girl." And here Cela shot a plotting and planning look at Evolette.
"I am kind of good at everything though. A bit average at potions and astronomy. Phoebus said he'd tutor Daph and I in potions though. So are you any good at astronomy? OHMYMERLIN! you can totally join our study group! Awesome!" Celandine high fived herself for thinking of it.

Curious.
His attentions though, returned to Miss Celandine when he felt her tugging her hand away. And Sebastian... Oh goodness, Sebastian was offering him hand santizer? He could sense his twin was uncomfortable, but really, was this necessary? Miss Daphne had even been nice and offered him to sit despite his earlier words.
It was Miss Celandine's turn to get an apologetic smile this time, and teeth ground together, Woodson pointedly ignored his brother.
"We were previously home-tutored. It got a bit ... boring, you know. So here we are." That was a lie but oh well.
"Boring? Mmm you know, I totally narrowly escaped being kept home this term, on account of something a tiny bit scandalous, so you and Seb here are like, totally lucky! Because here I am!" Cela spread her arms wide and struck a pose.
Possibly expecting applause?
Or possibly showing that she'd spent far FAR too much time around Lyra and Evolette.

Interesting, is what she wanted to say but a cry from outside the compartment made her stop mid-sentence. "Excuse me," she said quickly and stood up, opening the compartment door to see a hooded figure on the ground---with a purse attached to his arm...and a girl attached to the purse. "What's going on here?" she asked loudly, stepping out of the compartment and leaving the door open.
That purse--looked familiar. "Hey! That's Celly's!"
Cela turned her head curiously when Daphne stood up and called out, her hands dropping to clasp gracefully in her lap. "What's mine? Is Copernicus out there?"
