Alex seemed rather pleased by Lynn's responses, even if they did seem slightly short and difficultly spoken. Alex knew that if Lynn didn't want to talk to her, then she would have ended the conversation by now by either leaving or turning her attention to someone else. And Alex was a great conversation maker, so she had no problem chatting along to Lynn. “Yeah! I'm excited for classes about our powers! I wonder how they are gonna work, like if they are gonna section us off depending on our types!” Alex shoveled more food into her mouth, swallowing before continuing to talk. She had given her a bit more time to respond. “I'm not really looking forward to the normal classes though, I never liked math and stuff.” 

Now Alex was normally good at talking to people in bad moods, but Vespera might have been the first person to ever stop Alex in her happy little tracks. She didn't know what to say for the first time in her life, so she kept her eyes down and shut her trap. Her smile even deflated a bit and she didn't look nearly as animated. She could control herself just fine, she had disciplined her powers more then anyone here knew, and there was nothing wrong about being excited about your first day at school. Alex thought about saying this out loud, but was far to scared to do this. 

She was unable to fight this battle with a smile, so Alex was extremely thankful for what Lynn was saving. Lynn was defending her, no matter how peppy and annoying Alex was. Being defended was something Alex wasn't use to, but she still didn't take her eyes off her plate as Lynn spoke on her behalf, hopefully scaring Vesepra away. And Lynn even went out of her way to say that all of Alex's excessive amounts of excitedness wasn't annoying her. And then Lynn turned back to Alex, who smiled, a dim glow surrounding her. “I think we might be getting schedules and room assignments soon! I can't wait to see my room! I've never had my own before!”
