She looked up at her partner Zing and rephrased her sentence, "Look bad. Race fine." Louisa was actually starting to like this boy.. and his simple sentences. Heh.
Glancing around, she noticed the chaos of that other cart... the professor in the weird outfit was racing toward them followed by Sierra. Heh. Funny. "Let's try our best not to end up like those, okay?" Up on a tree and being chased by a fake fortune teller. Now, back to the issue at hand. With her wand, Louisa carved their initials on the wagon's wall 'L & Z', trying her best to make them look nice enough. "There... Louisa.. Zing.." she pointed at the letters respectively for the boy to know why she'd just written this.
"Okay, Now let's attach two wooden bars to the open front so that whoever pull the other with them." She used her wand again, not wanting to add more dirt on her hands or overall outfit, to get the two wooden bars and placed one third of each end of them on the open front of the wagon. "Adhero," she pointed at each one of them and did the spell twice. Moving over to check if they were as strong and steady as possible, Louisa then wiped her forehead more in a dramatic gesture and looked over at Zing. "Who gets to ride?" Naturally, she should but Zing wasn't really a big kind of guy. He was probably even younger than Louisa so she was okay with pulling him on the wagon... maybe... sort of.
They are great as a team. Xing nods and smiles in satisfaction looking at the newly made wagon. A wagon race?
"A race? That sounds so much fun!" There are many things will excite this boy as long as they involve physical activities. He isn't the type to sit down writing notes and listening to lectures.
He too attracted by the chaos caused, has his head turns to the direction from where the ruckus is coming from. What else can he do but to laugh?
"So embarassing, man!" says the boy, still laughing. Xing turns his attention back to the wagon when Louisa carves 'L & Z'. So, she is naming the wagon 'L & Z'? No... It's supposed to be their initials, but she gets his name wrong.
"Actually, Xing start with 'X'," he corrects the mistake by carving a reflected 'Z' over the letter itself to form an 'X'.
"There we go. Much better..." he smiles althought starting to feel tired.
As Louisa attached the handles, Xing hold the long piece of wood attached to the wagon. He doesn't know what the name is, but he'll call it a 'neck' since it looks like a guitar neck.
"You ride, I'm going to pull," he replies immediately when the Ravenclaw asks about it. Common gentleman code of conduct, nothing special.
