"H-hooligans? What kind... of..."
Glancing further at the books that had been separated from the rest, Rowan did a quick mental review of the titles to see what they had in common. Her eyes flew open when she reached the only conclusion that was in any way logical to her.
"Is this... they're all books on vampires! Are you doing a project on them or something?" Her mouth flew away on her as her brain made connections in leaps and bounds, everything else completely forgotten for the moment. "But they're all fictional Muggle works, so why... OH! Are you doing a compare and contrast project on historical accuracy in the wizarding world versus Muggle preconceptions and notions in fiction? Oooh what a great project! What class is this for? Do you want help?"
The more she spoke, the more she became enamored of the idea and the more animated she became. "I have a lot of books about intelligent magical species! If you want I can absolutely help you with research? When school starts up, I think I'm free on Tuesdays after classes, if you want to come over?"
She looked at him eagerly, obviously loving the idea.
