Marietta couldn't believe how rude some people were. It wasn't as if there wasn't space enough to have walked around the two of them. Thankfully, Goyle was sturdy enough that he wasn't easily jostled so she didn't have to deal with the awkwardness of his being inadvertently steered closer to her.
Inwardly she smiled at how easily and correctly she identified him once he stated his name. "Ravenclaw," she responded. "I know that we're not supposed to define ourselves by our houses these days but I have found that those true friends I made in school are the ones that tend to be the same people I find myself associating with these days." She wasn't trying to offend, simply making a statement of fact that was more of an observation of herself. "Does the same hold for you? I'm sure there were plenty of decent friendships created within your house as well."
