"Amelia," she replied brightly. Might as well try to get more friends, even though she would be leaving after this year. "So Edric," and man wasn't that a strange name for a strange boy, "what year are you in?" she asked in an attempt to find out more about him, and to keep the conversation going.
Edric furrowed his brows slightly as the sun-soaking girl wished aloud that she could spend more time under the big ball of fire in the sky. "Why don't you?" Were Slytherins locked in the dungeons for most part of the day against their will? Who knew.
And then the girl introduced herself as Amelia. Edric gave a brief nod before his eyes wandered off to a nearby first year that was chasing after an owl. Apparently a new pet that wasn't yet used to its new owner. He returned his attention to Amelia as the girl asked about his year.
"Seventh," replied Edric simply. "Just a few more months 'til freedom. What about you?"
