Kurumi shot a look at the Slytherin boy. Despite hating confrontation, there was no need for him to try and force his purist theories onto everyone else. He was one of those people who had grown up reading stories from that book written by a cockroach anyway. Kurumi still couldn’t get her head wrapped around the whole concept of a beetle bard anyway…sounded creepy.
“Yes, it is in fact,” Kurumi snapped. “And it would do you some good to not be so ignorant.”
Short, and two the point. Then she saw him reach for his pocket and squeaked rather loudly. Was he really going to try and use magic in the middle of the museum?! He really was ignorant. She was a waste of his time? More like the other way around. She had met people like him in what he called “muggle-land” - people from her own elementary school who cast her aside and tried to break her down by throwing mud, cursing at her, and beating her up each day. All of them just as ignorant at the next. Shame that there had to be people like that in the wizarding world. HE wasn’t worth her time.

Kurumi was slightly freaked out now. She had never spoken with this boy before, yet he knew her name and seemed to have mood swings quicker than one could turn on and off a light switch. She looked at his outstretched hand and decided to give it a light shake. She was still afraid that he was going to hex her.
Looking at his eyes with her own violet ones, her expression remained firm. “Apology accepted,” she said calmly releasing his hand. “But, all that still does not give you the excuse to be disrespectful. I grew up being lied to by my parents about what I am, so I am very much out of my comfort zone, and have a lot more adjusting to do than most people. Still, you don’t see me going around insulting your way of life. Isn't that the very reason we are here? To learn?”
With that she walked further forward and returned all her attention on Professor Saylen still feeling a bit steamed.
Selina was about to ask another question about Nemo when Kurumi's attention was diverted to some of her peers. They were being rude and to be honest Selina was feeling the urge to instate some of the things she had learned being the youngest of ten male cousins. No one messed with Selina's friend and got away with it, but then something incredible happened. Kurumi stood up for herself. She did not stutter and she did not back down. Selina was proud. Kurumi was finally not going to let anyone push her around.
So Selina stood back in the crowd beside Kurumi and let her handle the situation. After her rant Kurumi turned back to the Professor. Selina just looked at everyone who had insulted Kurumi and laughed, "Well, she just told you lot."
Selina walked up beside Kurumi and whispered, "I thought you were going to need some back up, but you just completely told them off. I am a little proud of you. Look at that, I am rubbing off on the rule-follower Kurumi."
