"You didn't mean for me to what? Get to know you?" she asked. "I'd say that it's inevitable when we live in the same house. Just like you'll learn that I love food, but I stress eat when I'm nervous and that I don't have friends because I get rather awkward. Like I study people and know how they thick, but then when I have to answer, it's almost like I have too much information in my head and I can't say the right thing."
Returning to the table, she pushed the chair closer to Sirius and sat down. "I'm not asking you what it is or if it's important, although it is important enough to change the way you behave. I'm asking you how you want to handle when things like this happen in the future. I'm not really good at not seeing what's wrong, but I can give you space or I can ask. Really it's whatever you prefer."
