Aurora didn't miss that little mad dash Jeremy had made to try and make room for her. Awww, how sweet! The chivalrous act did not go unnoticed. She winked at him and blew him a little kiss from her spot over by Lachlan. Maybe if he began to bore her she'd wander over and say hi to him. Not likely, though. Lachlan usually pulled her in with that dumb, captivating accent...

Speaking of Lachlan, she couldn't help but grin at that little smile she got. He was just so darn nice. It was so weird. Aurora was not used to people being so nice around her - well, except for Irene. And her siblings, of course. Speaking of which, where was Drew in all this nonsense? Had he somehow NOT made the journey over from America? It would be just like him to find a way out of this whole trip...

Back to the matter at hand. "That's so cute, that you think you stand a chance against me," she smirked, taking a sip of her coffee and leaving a hot pink lipstick ring around the rim as she pulled it away. "But thank you. It'll be fun, this whole competition. And of course, exploring this school. Hanging with the Brits. It'll be quite the year," she said happily. True, she was planning on winning this WHOOOLE thing, but that didn't mean she couldn't have fun in the process and use this experience as another activity to pad her university application someday.

"Any Hogwarts person in particular who seems...I dunno...like they stand out from the crowd?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. She wanted to know - for more reasons than one.

She giggled and gave Reed a nod of acknowledgement at his comment. She was used to getting compliments before breakfast of course, but today everyone seemed EXTRA chipper. Must be the caffeine.
