Nora had been staring down at the floor when she felt something smack against her head. Her eyes went wide and her face drained of it's color as images swirled in her mind of this woman hitting her for being so careless. Her mind spun with ways she could make up for it, get back in her good graces all while trying not to spiral into a panicked mess. 

When she heard her speak, Nora raised her head slowly, keeping Magnus' words in mind. Slow.. steady breathes. Keep your feet squarely on the ground... When she looked up, she spotted the way the woman was holding her own head. Then it clicked. She hadn't hit her. She'd bumped into her. A wash of relief came over Nora like a gentle wave and she lifted a hand to hide her mouth as a small chuckle escaped her lips. 

[color=tan]"Sorry, sorry. I don't mean to laugh at you."[/color] She started, shaking her head at the rather beautiful woman in front of her. [color=tan]"I'm laughing more at myself than anything."[/color] She added. She smiled as warmly as she could at the young woman, despite the jitters of anxiety still bouncing around in her. [color=tan]"I absolutely love your dress."[/color] Nora spoke, hoping she might be able to allow the other girl a chance to recover. 

[color=tan]"I am Nora Pawonska, daughter to Count Pawonska. You are...?"[/color] She asked, keeping her voice soft.
