As Nyle talked, Rory nodded. She understood what he was saying. This boy clearly felt a deep connection to plants, and she got it. She loved plants herself. Hence why she had made her way over to check out the indoor garden when she had been unable to sleep. "Well, I'd be happy to help you keep them company." It was nice being here with him and keeping the plants company.

She BEAMED when he complimented her name. "Thanks! I was named after Aurora from Sleeping Beauty." Yes, she was named after a Disney princess. Her middle name was Ariel. It really was a nice name, but it did feel a little... grand for her currently. Maybe one day she'd feel that it suited her more.

Rory decided to ignore his blush. Clearly he was feeling awkward for some reason, and she didn't really want to draw attention to it. "My mom was in Hufflepuff too. My dad was a Gryffindor." She nodded as he explained where he had gotten his gift for Herbology from. "That's really neat. I love plants too. Herbology is definitely one of my favourite classes." And one of her best too, honestly. "I think I'm going to be coming here a lot myself." It was so nice and peaceful and she liked the thought of caring for the different plants. "How come your dad didn't go to school?" Hopefully that was okay to ask. She was curious.

She made a mental note to never do anything to startle Nyle. She'd feel bad if she scared him. "I don't like things jumping out at me either." Though that didn't stop her from starting Ary for fun from time to time. Rory was picky about the scary stuff she liked, and she hated jump scares. She was curious about what he meant by 'some stuff', but decided not to press it in case he didn't want to talk about it.

As he went on, Rory tried her best not to frown as he talked about himself that way. But she also understood what he was trying to say. "I get it and that makes perfect sense." Oh gosh, he was feeling awkward again. But she didn't think what he had said was dumb at all.
