"It's been known to happen, from time to time." Tabs quipped before she could catch herself. It was better than blushing again, at any rate, though she was sure it happened anyway. She didn't have many friends with whom she could joke around with, so she might have been out of practice, but Mr. Colton did not seem to mind. It felt appropriate, given their unorthodox meeting. Not to mention, she wasn't ready to admit her most stable friendship was with a centuries-old ghost who served as her best chaperon as well.
She had finished enough of her ice cream to satisfy the curiosity over the flavor (she liked it) to easily accept Mr. Colton's hand up. The hat was an amusing addition. It made him stand out even more, especially given his height, but she could not help but to think it suited him immensely. It certainly fit her image of where he was from better. Though she didn't know much about Texas, she was slowly getting a better picture. She picked up the glass using Mr. Colton's handkerchief and moved to set both of their glasses aside with the other dishes so someone else could use the table.
With that accomplished she toyed with the fabric idly in her hands, thinking about where best to show him first. "Is there anything you need specifically for your stay or would you just like to walk the Alley and see what there is to offer?" Which was essentially anything wizarding kind could need, but if he had anything in mind, they could start there.
