So focused on not passing out where she sat, Elsie hadn't even noticed that the gentleman had offered to help her up. Had she seen, she would feel even more silly, but with her head swimming and all of the books to pick up, she was a little less perceptive. "Oh you don't have to-" She started to stop him, but couldn't find the energy to refuse the help.

"It's really quite kind of you, thank you." Elsie motioned to the books surrounding her as she inspected one to make sure there was no damage. "I hope I didn't get you too badly with the cart?" She hadn't even thought of that in her tumble that she had might have actually pushed the cart right into him. How additionally embarrassing that would be!

Elsie sighed a little and couldn't help but to shrug. "It is unfortunately. I even tripped during my own debut at Hogwarts." She admitted with a wry smile, rearranging books into piles without much thought. The memory was embarrassing, but the events that had followed were far more memorable and for a wonderful reason. Everything happened for a reason, she supposed.
