Then again, he simply had never heard of that before. But, David and Nick... wait, were they her brothers, or no? "Like your brothers?" he repeated, inflection turning the statement into a question. "Yep, I've got -" But he broke off suddenly as his face split into a wide grin and he released a laugh. Was she really biting into an avocado? "What are you doing?" He asked while laughing.

Small sword? Pretend that you were fighting? Sam threw her daggers for that one. "If you do ever want to fight with real swords, you've got to be good at fencing first. Otherwise you'll die." There. He and his sport were redeemed. Students who saved the school from the squid... yes! Sam's eyes lit up with this. "We could! We'd be heroes, you know? Do you think the squid would actually attack students?" It was at this point that Sam made a mental note to read up on the Giant Squid much more extensively than he already had. He nodded as well when Genny concluded that that was why she hadn't come across the room yet. But they were already half-way through their first year, so third year wasn't too far off.

Finally finished with his meal, Sam reached into his rather full robe pocket for a chocolate frog. But as he pulled it out, a spare quill went along with it and floated off a few feet behind them. He did need to empty out his pockets. Sam stood from his seat, but as he began raising his leg to step over the bench, something tugged him back and caused him to fall, quite ungracefully, over the bench and onto the floor. The thing was, Genny's feet went right along with his.
Yes, like her brother. "Nick's my cousin. He's a Hufflepuff here. You should meet him some time, he's really cool." He built stuff. "David's my friend. He's Ravenclaw, second year. He likes books... and bugs." He did suggest she added some to her treehouse. And she did. Huh? Why was Sam laughing at her choice of food? Genny looked puzzled, "What?" WHAT? It wasn't like she was biting into a pineapple.

She could tell her comment got to him, and it was funny how he defended this fencing thing when he sounded like he was made to do it in the first place. "Okay. Or we can use our wands." Juuuust saying. Although, "Dueling looks a lot like fencing, I think. Except the wands don't touch... and we don't wear masks." As for the squid, Genny had to think for a whole second in answer to that question. "Yes. If he's hungry and when the lake runs out of food." How else would he eat if not taking students' luggage, or worse...

... speaking of bad, Genny's foot suddenly was tugged in a weird angle and in no time at all, with the fork still in her hand, her leg was dragged up and over the bench while she fell head-first onto the floor under the bench, the opposite direction of Sam. Her head did not hit the floor, though, she was not that tall. "Owww!" she called out from underneath the bench, her legs still suspended over the bench with one of them tied to Sam's. "What the--?" It took her one more moment to realize what just happened. "Did YOU do this??" It wasn't said in a lovely tone. In fact, she started tugging on his foot as well quite violently to release her shoe... and try to stand up again. "NOT funny!" BOY!SAM WAS NOT COOL. NOT COOL.
