She returned to busying herself with cleaning her robes when the boy who had had the blonde's wand in his nose started waving his arms at her, calling out to her that his friend wanted to meet her.
Enid's light eyebrows rose. "What, I?" she asked, blinking. Well, this was kind of rude. You don't just call royals over to meet with you, you come over to them! "That is most disrespectful behaviour, peasants!" she gasped, her brows now furrowing disapprovingly. "Hast thou no manners? Thou should consider thyselves lucky the king is not present to cut thy tongues for using such foul dialect to address a royal!" she said, completely horrified by the way the commoners acted in this… alternate universe she had ended up in, somehow. Still a bit bothered by this, she proceeded to brush the sand out of her light brown hair, quite annoyed that the seamstress had not yet finished her request for some new royal robes. "I suppose I could still make good use of thee, though," she added a little more casually now. "Doest thou knowest of the king's whereabouts?"

Ian decided to ignore the other kid. For now.
Miss Hopton.
Ian supposed that calling her Miss Hopton was sort of fitting what with her manner of speaking and carrying herself and all that stuff he didn't really care much for. Buuuuut ... "Let's make a deal, Daphne Hopton - I'll call you Miss Hopton if you call me Mister McKensie. Deal?" He grinned, showing a dimple on his right cheek. "Or if it doesn't work for you, I can just call you Daph." Daph worked, too. Ian liked new nicknames - he had PLENTY.
At first having trouble understanding what on earth had he done now to deserve SUCH a luck, Ian frowned a little bit and gnawed on his bottom lip. And then, once he understood, his freckled cheeks turned a faint shade of pink. "I was just checking to see if you had a badge or ... something." HMMMPPPHHH. Always jumping into conclusions, women were. "Since I just keep meeting prefects, and captains and head girls ... "
... "I'm fifteen." Whyyyy was this important? "You? Seventeen? Eighteen?" Twenty? Maybe Daphne Hopton had flunked a year.
Almost having forgotten about the OTHER girl, Ian turned to look at her.
And then blinked.
..................
Nutjob.
He looked at Daphne Hopton for help. "What is she talking about?" He gave the strange girl a series of both scared and wary looks. "Prefect Raiden Kururugi," Called Ian to the boy with the shiny badge, "What IS this girl talking about?" Prefects were meant to know stuff.
Make yourself useful.

"Is... everything alright?" he asked, his eyes going to Daphne's hair. Where the dirt-handed boy had touched. And he very carefully brushed a tiny bit of dirt off of her. "Who's your new friend?"
Daphne....didn't even know how to react. One minute she was relieved that Raiden was here, the other she wanted to
murderize Ian McKensie and the next she was being called a...
"Peasant?" she repeated with raised brows at the girl. She was speaking old English, if Daphne was correct and apparently in search for the kind of Hogwarts. King? "Thou shall consider thyself lucky, that thy is clearly, and obviously, criminally insane." Otherwise, Daphne would have scourgified her brain.
NUT. JOB. O_O Turning to Raiden, Daphne STARED at him before clinging to his arm.
Prefect Save Us All. She was even willing to forgive Ian McKensie for calling her 'Daph'. As long as she didn't end up being mauled by the raving lunatic.
"This is Ian McKensie, Raiden," she said and instinctively reached for the, apparently, 15 year old boy. She needed to save innocent lives. It was good karma. "And she is....I have no idea. Clearly deluded. We have no king," answered Daphne slowly and with a nod.
