Even if there was Curly Wade and Minnie there. HEY CURLY AND WHEATY.

... And... he was here. Yeah. Which only meant that he had to CHOOSE a shoe type. Frowning a little, Alec scanned the selection before picking up a pair of roller skates, only because they seemed to be a bit... easier to skate around in? Yeah, he was going to go with that. Easier. Frankly, the other one looked a bit scary with the wheels down the middle.

Heading over towards an empty bench, the boy sat down and strapped on the roller skates. He wiggled his feet around to try and get a feel of them before standing up. ... Yeah... he regretted this. A lot. How were people able to skate around in these--

... WHOA. Hold the snitch. Was that...?

... She looked familiar. Astro girl...? Probably good friend of Adrienne, the one who hated him and his lame jokes. But that wasn't what he was concentrating on. Instead, he was concentrating on her shoes and the fact that she was skating around in BOTH types of shoes provided. BLINK. He didn't think that was even possible but... How was she doing that?!

Questions flooded the seventeen year old's mind. There was no way he was going to get answers by just standing there, wobbling on his roller skates. Reaching over towards the wall, he started pulling himself along towards her. After a while, his fingertips began to hurt but... that didn't matter. He was too curious to just... let this opportunity slip out of his hands. So... he was skating. Towards the girl. HE WAS SKATING ~~with the use of the wall~~! Was anybody seeing this?

"How are you doing that?!" he asked, seemingly coming out of nowhere. Yeah... not creepy.

Alright, alright! She was juuust getting the hang of this skating with two different skates sort of thing. Picking up speed now... and WHOA CAREFUL! She reflexively reached out to grab the wall, but was soon pushing right back off (a bit slower) to try again. As she skate-bladed about the rink, she laughed with the professors who were having such a hard time on just one kind of skate. Not that she was by any means agile on two. She was about to skate over to see if she could help when she heard a voice right behind her.

"Oh, piskey sting!" she shouted, using Gram's second favorite curse (second favorite only to "billywig rot", popular in Tora's vocabulary as well). She swing her arms and slipped backwards over her right (rollerblade) foot before remembering that her left foot (the roller skate) was sturdier and plopping on her butt. As she righted herself, she grabbed onto her assaulter's shoulder to maintain balance and felt her easily aroused temper spike.
"Well, I'm obviously not doing it anymore," she snapped before growling "What'd you do that for anyway?!"

Once she actually regained an upright position, realized who she was talking to, and how badly they seemed to be skating, she grinned and crossed her arms. Just to prove that she didn't need them for balance. She tilted her head back and looked up at the... sixth year? Maybe seventh she wasn't sure. Older student anyway, and restated her question a bit nicer. "You need some help with skating? Why don't you try two different kinds?" she was smiling though she was still a bit curious as to why (among EVERYONE there) no one else had bothered to try two different kinds of skates.
