"You wouldn't be the first to suggest that to me this term." But the previous boy had kind of done all of the work for her and she couldn't say she minded that one bit. Though... this was different. And perhaps it was time she showed that she wasn't totally helpless... and that a muggleborn was perfectly capable of magic. Not that this boy knew any of that.

Carefully, she retrieved her wand. After five years she still had her doubts about breaking the thing. Before she knew it, she spoke the spell out loud, and the compact was once again back in her hand. "So... thanks."
Oh? Gunnar didn't respond to the girl's statement with anything but a raised eyebrow as he watched her, but did find that to be curious. Hadn't that spell been the obvious choice? He had almost felt patronizing suggesting it to her when he did, even if he hadn't meant it as anything but helpful.

And he wasn't sure why he felt compelled to watch her as she cast the spell. Perhaps it had been the way she said what she did that made the nearly sixteen year old wonder if she maybe had trouble with the spell. But even though she seemed somewhat tentative with her wand, there didn't seem to be a problem when the object was back in her hand. And so, Gunnar felt a bit foolish for standing there watching her.

"Right... no need to thank," he said with a small smile, figuring he should be on his way. "It had only been a suggestion." He didn't actually do anything; she did that part herself.
