The foreigner was only spared a glance, though; the sixth year's gaze flickered back to Schuyler soon enough.

"For Astronomy, yeah. I like that subject." Pause. Was telling this girl what subjects she enjoyed letting on too much about herself? Alice started over thinking it immediately, leading herself to prompt Schuyler to a similar answer so she could feel like she possessed the upper hand again. "What classes do you like best here? Or at your old school?"

Schuyler wore lots of flowers. Alice guessed Herbology. Or maybe Charms. Her face seemed charming enough. Did that count?

Schuyler nodded. Yes, she and Olly. She didn't quite remember what Alice had been dressed up as, so she neglected to comment on that. But, moving on. On to Astronomy. Alice said she liked Astronomy. And she must have been good at it too if she had been chosen to participate in that tournament. "Nice. There's a lovely Walt Whitman poem about Astronomy that I like." Maybe she knew it. It basically expressed her own sentiments towards the subject.

When the other girl returned a similar question, Schuyler looked to the ceiling and mulled this over for a second. "I like herbology a lot, but the professor who taught it at my old school wasn't that great." Another good thing about being at Hogwarts, she supposed.
