Henrietta just laughed, despite the awkwardness. Well, it was probably a laugh, but to everyone else in the room it sounded like a peal of musical notes, carefully conducted by an expert maestro. A girl behind her whispered into her ear and she nodded. Her group behind her got a stack of books and took up a table a bit farther in front of Timothy and Poppy. Henrietta and the one boy remained, though she have a cute pout when she saw he was still there.

"Freshies, huh? Hey, have you thought about joining a group yet? I guarantee it has many benefits like learning how to best use your abilities and making a whole bunch of new friends and-"

The boy standing behind her spoke up. "Henrietta, you're rambling again. We don't want to overload them with information, and remember, you have to make them reach their own decisions, otherwise, people will suspect you more than already. Plus, you've yet to even give your name."

Red flooded her cheeks as she realized he was right. Scratching the back of her head, she revised her greeting. "Uh, hey, sorry about that," she gave a dazzling smile, "I'm Henrietta Fawkes, I've been here a few years. It's nice to meet you two!"
