It wasn't like Zahra wasn't ACTIVELY trying to stop... moping... just sometimes...particularly here in the Gryffindor Tower, it got the best of her. Gryffindor wasn't the same without Mikey. "... you make it sound like I have a choice. No one asked my opinion, no one ever does, so ... I dunno. I'm not trying to be sad. It just... you wouldn't understand."

There had to be something else to talk about. Literally anything else. "Can I hold it?" the badge. It'd be the closest thing Zahra ever got to getting one, with how the Professors HATED ON HER.
That...wasn't actually what she meant when she asked what she intended to do but it was interesting to know there were attempts. There was no visible reaction this time but she remembered Mikey telling her about that...then promising he and Zahra would cool it so his parents wouldn't have an aneurysm. Brilliant Michael.

She could have told her she had a choice too and that there were ways of distracting from the sad to help a little but pushing further wasn't the best choice so she shrugged. "You're right, I wouldn't understand. I've never lost people close to me and I've never tried getting over the sadness. Never been a victim of a tragedy." But sarcasm wouldn't help either so Alexa went quiet for a moment until her badge was the new topic.

"Sure thing." She unclipped it and tossed it lightly at her. "Got this First Year to polish it, kid seemed eager enough and wouldn't stop looking at me with doe-y eyes til they were happily wiping and shining." Whatever that was about.
