Not exactly what she was used to bu-----oh! Was that the other girl’s secret.

“Wait…are you a muggleborn?” she asked without realizing how it might sound. “I mean…are you new to magic? It’s totally okay if you are. My grandpa was. But I can see how it might be a bit overwhelming.” And she was going a mile a minute which could also be overwhelming. “Sorry about babbling,” Nadia apologized, taking a deep breath to try and slow herself down. “Nice to meet you , Nora…I’m Nadia. And only because I've been around magic all my life."
Nora nodded. She didn't care one way or the other what the magical world referred to her as. She was proud to be born and raised in the muggle world, and she wished very much to go back to it and stay there forever. But, yes. She was also new to magic. The answers to the girl's questions were easy enough. "Yes and yes. It's not exactly my favorite thing in the world, but I guess I'm warming up to some of it," she said. Meaning she wasn't angry and crying herself to sleep almost every night anymore. If you called that warming up, then that was what she was doing.

Nadia. Was every girl her age named something that started with an N? Was that a thing in the magical world or something? She was Nora, she'd just met Nancy, and now she was meeting Nadia. Apparently, all these N-named girls would be dorm mates if they all ended up in the same house. "So, uhh, we just shop for the items on this list, board the train when it's time, and they drop us off at the castle, right?" she asked. It sounded easy enough. She also had her calendar ready so she could mark off the days and count down until she got to go home for Christmas.
