It was nice that this boy was showing concern over her injury and not just laughing at her. The boys at her muggle school wouldn't have been so kind. There was always raucous camaraderie there. The blush faded on her cheeks. “You're kind.” She stated simply. He was a chatty sort, and that suited Rowan very well, being the quiet sort. “Well.. I'm afraid I can't help you with your toad either.” She laughed lightly. “I'm not a creatures expert. The only pet I have is a cat.” Very generic, but Rowan adored her little Helix and was so relieved to find she could take him to Hogwarts with her. If she failed in making friends, she would at least have the furball to keep her company.

She looked at the army of owls again and nodded hesitantly. “I need one.” Unfortunately. “..So I can communicate with home when I'm at school.” She looked at the small owl, still with it's back to her. “I like a challenge. But I think you might be right.”

She looked from the touchy feely girl to the boy. Were these two boyfriend and girlfriend? They seemed very.. close. 'Solomon Duck' - Rowan actually grinned at that. “That is a fantastic name.” She meant it genuinely. Was Duck a wizarding name? She'd never ever heard of it before, but it was delightful nonetheless. “Do you prefer Solly or Solomon?”

“I'm starting in September.” She replied to the pair. So, no, she didn't have a house yet. The girl was Ravenclaw? She must be intelligent. “I'll be going into fourth year.” Like Solly here. “My mum was a Gryffindor.. but I'm not sure I fit the bravery requirement.” She chuckled softly. Hufflepuff material? Nahh.. “I'm pretty sure I'll be either a Ravenclaw or Slytherin.. but who knows.” A shrug of the shoulder. “So I might be seeing a lot more of one of you.”

She had almost forgotten about her bleeding finger when the shopkeeper approached. Feeling embarrassed all over again that he'd overheard things, she raised her hand, blush rising in her cheeks once again. “That was me.. Sorry.” She added the apology, knowing full well she shouldn't have been sticking her fingers into the cages. She held out her finger to him, which had now stopped bleeding, but it still stung and burned.

“I need an owl.. but I really don't know where to start.” She informed him softly.
