"Yes, ma'am. He knocked the books to the floor and then picked them up himself. There was pretty much nothing I could do to convince him I meant well," she said, accepting the cake and smiling in appreciation. "Thank you, Professor Lupa. Nothing like coffee and chocolate cake to make a girl feel all better." PDA? Who was exhibiting PDA? Anna glanced over at Robert and Lyra, thinking maybe they'd snuck a quick kiss or something. Were they even dating? She didn't think so... Ahh, wait. Hadn't she squeezed Cale's hand a moment ago? She did! "Oh, excuse me, Professor Lupa. I was only thanking him for standing by my side. I tend to do things like squeeze his hand by instinct and habit, sometimes without thinking about it first. My apologies," she said.

"So Seymour told Professor Kazimeriz that he didn't like me, because supposedly I'm a different person when not under the supervision of the school staff. That's what he said, at least. He said I was very bossy, rude, arrogant, and self-centered, which just isn't true, Professor. You can ask any of these people sitting in here today, and I'm confidant they would tell you I'm not the person Seymour made me out to be!" she explained. "He then proceeded to tell Professor Kazimeriz that I tried to steal a textbook from the library. Only, he was referring to the time I tried to get Will to share the treasure-hunting book with the rest of the school. He just carefully worded it to make it sound like I'd done something terribly wrong. Cale was there, though. He can tell you that it didn't happen that way. He even ended by saying that I favor my own house and pick on the others," she continued. She glanced over at Lyra and Robert, two people not in her own house. "You see I'm here today with a Hufflepuff and a Ravenclaw, as well as someone from my own house. My best friend Reese, is also a Slytherin. My own father was a Slytherin."
