No. The answer to that was kind of obvious to the fourth year. Hmm? What was Selena saying? He liked her shoes in particular. ‘Lovely’, the Ravenclaw said curtly. Why was she this lucky? Seriously. Hmph. Though, the ball she had thrown seemed to have caught the cruppy’s attention. Looks like her shoes were safe for now.

When she asked that random ‘how are you’ question, Gwendolyn expected to hear what everyone else usually responded. Errr. And she was wrong. Selena just said a word… actually- no- that wasn’t even a word- something that the fourth year couldn’t even understand, much less pronounce. Pffft. Something that started with ‘awesome’ had a ‘freaking’ in the word and umm… yeaaah. ‘I’m…’, the Ravenclaw started saying, in attempt to answer to her question. 'Wait-Tangerine?’, she asked, raising an eyebrow. Where did this nickname come from? Gwen did hear people calling her all kinds of nicknames, like ‘Lynn’, which she could only assume came from GwendoLYNN, and hmm… what else was there… ‘Gwen-Gwen’, like Joanna called her… and many others. She always thought her name was not nickname material. And now- Tangerine?!?

How did she end up with ‘Tangerine’?
Selena rolled up the leash in her hand and slung her bookbag on one shoulder, unzipping the top so she could stuff the leash into it. In the process, she pulled out a box of Bertie Botts jelly beans. Because really, a conversation simply wasn't a conversation without any candy. "Want?" she asked, opening it and pointing it at the girl. Because if she didn't, it was completely alright with Selena - more for her.

The girl seemed a bit confused or something though. Selena didn't get it. What was there to be confused about? Oh, the fruit nickname? "That's your fruit nickname," Selena said slowly. Perhaps she had spoken too quickly or something? "You are now known as Tangerine to Selena Zabini-Riddle and all those awesometastical." Because fruit nicknames were so totally epically cool. But really, the girl didn't need to get skeptical about it or anything, it was a perfectly reasonable fruit nickname. "You can call me Cherry if you want," Selena offered.

Because that was her cool fruit nickname.
