What, she didn't know, because in the next second, she was wide-eyed an flailing her arms to try and get her balance. This was not going to end well for her, was it?

In the end, she landed on her behind sitting straight up on the ground. OW. Who in the name of Merlin wanted a chance for a plimpy that badly? She frowned and looked around, trying to see one, if anybody might have seen this fall, and two, who caused it in the first place.

...and when she found him, he was asking if he knocked into her? Umm, gee, let me see. I'm on the ground, no longer standing, and there's a bit of dirt on my once clean clothes. What did he THINK?! Still, he was apologizing, so she guessed it was okay. Even if her pride was wounded a little. Or a lot. "Erm, yeah, but it's alright," she said, pushing herself off the ground. She brushed the dirt off then looked to make sure her mom wasn't running over there to embarrass her any further. Nope. She was clear.

It was only then that she got a good look at the boy. He looked older than her, but maybe not by much. She tried to crack a small smile for him. "You really wanted that plimpy, didn't you?" she asked.


Oh, see? Now Tobias felt bad. He was about to offer her a helping hand to get back up, but she was already making her own way back to her feet, so Toby quickly diverted his hand so he brushed some his hair away from his eyes.

"I'm really sorry," he said then, uncomfortably aware that that was three times he'd now apologised, his face twisted into a weird expression between awkwardness and guilt. Awkwuiltness. There. He'd just invented a face.

Luckily, the girl didn't seem to be dwelling on it because she soon smiled and mentioned the plimpies instead. Toby liked it when people smiled, so he smiled too before looking over at the plimpies. "I like that they're different colours," he explained somewhat sheepishly. It seemed the girl thought he had been trying to win the game part... which seemed a little bit more acceptable than 'I liked the colours' so Tobias decided to go ahead and not explicitly correct that assumption. "And this is the first time I've ever seen one up close before."

Did you actually get to WIN the walky-fish-things though? Because if so... THAT WAS SO COOL. Maybe he WOULD have a go.

Tobias knew he had some sickles in his pocket, so it wouldn't hurt to give it a try. And it was probably quite fun anyway. "You gonna give it a shot?"
