Did she blame Mary for her views? Not really. Georgina had thought them herself. She wasn't mad, so much as she was upset overall. She shook herself back to the present and smiled at her friend. [color=F0B6E5]"Bygones."[/color] Mary had also extolled her sympathy at having seen the thestrals. Georgina thought back if she ever learned about them and she was sure she hadn't. She could hardly blame her professors. It was a depressing bit of information. After all, she [i]had[/i] just seen someone die. The carriage ride had gone smoothly as her friendship had been restored. Once they arrived, Georgina followed the others towards Dumbledore's office, her mind racing at the possibilities of what was going to happen. Surely they weren't in trouble, were they? Was she about to be rebuked for her efforts on the train? Was she about to be interrogated for her connection to Callum? Were the others to be punished for trying to protect themselves? Surely not. Dumbledore was many things, but unfair was not one of them. She followed, even if Paige was leading. Uncertainty arose inside herself. Once atop, after the password was given (and she grew a desire to have some apple whip now), they stepped inside. Georgina glanced at the phoenix, a glorious creature before Dumbledore appeared. Once he was out, he had explained himself and his desire for the group he called together. Georgina listened intently as Dumbledore spoke about what he wanted each of them to do. Her mind grew with questions, but the others had tackled them. Classes would still be attended, nothing changed about that. And, she had to admit to herself, she blushed a bit at Dumbledore's compliment towards her. It was nice her efforts had been not only noticed but praised. There was little thought, oddly enough, as to what her response would be. [color=F0B6E5]"I think this is an amazing opportunity I would be silly to turn down. I'd like to join, Headmaster."[/color]
