"Ooh, Menolly! Yeah, she's super cool. I got the egg from her, actually. I was probably the youngest of the ones who got one, but since I'm more mature than others my age, apparently, she wanted me to have it." Nancy had been proud to receive one of the eggs, getting the opportunity to bond with and raise one of these small dragon-like creatures. "And I heard her singing - both Menolly and Beauty, her golden lizard. I'm in her Music For Beginners class." Felix had told her, the Advanced class was way more packed; it appeared more students came here possessing music skills already. "Alone," she added, chuckling. "But it's fun, if you and your teacher both have a fire lizard, you know?"
She tilted her head a moment later: "You're a musician too? What do you play?" There was genuine interest in her eyes, as she seemed to be one of the few in her inner circle not already skilled in the arts.
John's spell had escaped her attention, as occupied her mind had been with dancing.
As Nancy wanted to assure Sweeney that nobody took her unwillingly, John suddenly replied for her, standing next to them with another person close by. The ghostly girl blinked at both of them, slightly surprised, but then nodded. "He's right. I came here willingly." A part of her was almost sure, Sweeney would've not been utterly amused, if John had abducted her against her will.
In reply to the girl, Nancy herself smiled brightly. "Why thank you! You look cool as well though. The staff looks fascinating!" There was not the slightest sign in her voice, that she didn't mean what she just said. For her, Chise looked just as great as many others here, no matter her choice of clothes; the aura she was giving off, was way more important. And while she might seemed slightly scared, there was warm honesty in her voice, which Nancy liked a lot.
"A lizard. A fire lizard, yes. He can't breathe fire, but he's practically a miniature dragon. Right, Minu?" Again, the lizard barely raised his head to take in the new approachers and made a tiny sound to signal attention. Nancy petted his head softly.
"I'm Nancy, by the way," she then told Chise with a nod. If she was a fae too, or a human like her, she couldn't tell, and tonight, it probably didn't matter anyway.
