OH and the girl wanted to know more... and the questions were just...YES! "Yes! He's very...extremely gorgeous! His mother is so much fun to go shopping with. I wore the cutest of all bikinis. Yes he held my hand when we went to the village, I would have wondered if he didn't. His cat is super cool, best cat I've ever seen. The romance books, his mum let me borrow and I read them to him, Pride and Prejudice is a wonderful book...that Mr. Darcy is just...RAWRRR!" She talked almost without a break in between, as Cela did as well.
"Did Cope enjoy the book? What did he think of Mr. Darcy? What do you think of Mr. Darcy?" Why was she reading to Copernicus? "And the pretty heels, well, I believe that this year I'm going to see about holding a secret class...just for the females," she looked around for a moment, then up to the staff table. "I'm rather hoping that a certain Professor would help. I'm sure it would be right up her alley." And speaking of the professor, she seemed to have made a grand entrance herself with her stylish shades, handbag and of course the wonderful pair of shoes.
"Right." Celandine agreed, happy enough to recall the part of her summer that she had found enjoyable. "I met a vampire... I don't know if it was a real vampire, but his name was Alan. And there was a carnie with a warty foot and he let us get stuck at the top of the ferris wheel and I dropped Plymouth's shirt over the side and we had so much carnie food and I tried taffy for the first time and went on a giant swing where I had to tuck my skirt in so it didn't fly up and there were ninja turtle and Chuck Norris shirts for sale but the carnies didn't explain why a turtle would be a ninja or who Chuck Norris was..." Celandine shrugged and picked up a bread roll, nibbling on it and listening enthralled to Lyra answering her questions, nodding the entire time and making appreciative ooohs and aahs. Celandine always found Lyra very interesting.
"Ummm." Celandine tried to remember, "He thought Darcy was a prat and then we got distracted and stopped reading." Celandine perked up visibly.
"A secret class? For walking?" Celandine looked up at Professor Bunbury and stared at her neat shoes and sunglasses and bag and geeee she was sooooooo cooooool! "Oh!" Celandine cocked her head, "We have new profess... I saw Professor Bunbury talking to that man in Diagon Alley and he smiled at me." She pointed at Lawson and chewed on her lip for a moment before going back to her bread roll nibbling and turning her attention back to Lyra.
