Sipping his juice Aedan inclined his head to her at the praise listening intently to her answer and taking a few moments to mull the new information over. His eyes were watching her every move the cold calculations could be seen as his gears rolled to think of the possibilities of singling him out over some of the other first years. He decided not to make a big deal out of that and merely go along with being friendly. Who knows he might have just found his best friend for his school career. Her answer caused the other Slytherin students to nod and return to their plates while a few others turned to whisper no doubt wondering why she was in Ravenclaw. To Aedan that much was at least clear, as Skylar had intelligence pouring from her personality and he loved it. 

"So Selwyn... New year, new school. Have any interesting plans for the next seven years of your life?"

Aedan chuckled slightly, the small brunette shrugging visibly. "Please don't tell me you're going to refer to me with my last name all the time? Just Aedan please." He thought about her question while taking another sip of juice. "To simply do the best I can and go with whatever happens. I suppose I just want to succeed, through whatever means necessary." He shrugged and smiled at her. "And yourself? How do you think you'll survive all seven years?"
