She made him laugh! Was her comment witty then? Minty smiled shyly as he laughed, proud of herself for causing him that reaction.
She blushed when he pointed out that humanity had existed before the social season. He had a point and it was especially embarrassing that Minty hadn't thought of that, seeing that History of Magic had been one of her favourite subjects at school. That being said, she was quite ignorant about how people in other walks of life lived. The only reality she knew was that of the upper class.
"You think?" Minty asked the man awkwardly, unsure of what to say. "Mrs. Finch or Mrs. Wildsmith never stuck me as very violent..." She hadn't taken his comment that literally, but she was at loss of anything witty to say. "Though I suppose Mrs. Finch could slay someone with her gaze!" She flushed at her comment and glanced around, hoping that the domineering hostess wasn't withing hearing distance.
