Skateboarding? I never tried it, is it hard?
Jaime shrugged in response. It had been difficult at the start, full of long nights ending in more scratches and knicks than she could count, but after a while, she started to get the hang of it. In a way, skateboarding was like riding a bike. Hard to learn, but once you get it, you've got it forever. Of course, though, that was just her. She knew several people who just gave up after their first try, trading in their board for something that required less effort. "Depends on the person," Jaime clarified, "But if you stick with it, you won't fail."
I am free today but I don't know when I am free else. What about you? asked Linda.
"Oh, well, um..." Jaime trailed off, letting her gaze wander around the room. She wasn't really the type to make plans. She liked to keep her schedule open, and besides the daily structure of classes, her life was fairly spontaneous. Sure, she might have some ideas of what she'd like to do next, but it was never set in stone. Maybe they could go right now? Jaime hoped Linda would be okay with that because if they made plans for later, there would be no hope of Jaime actually remembering. And even if she did, knowing where she had to be in any amount of time would eat away at her for hours and stop her from enjoying anything.
After a second, Linda added, It's okay though if you don't want to. We can do something else that you will find interested and will want to share.
Jaime winced involuntarily. Had her hesitation made it seem like she didn't want to go? She hoped not. "No, no, I'd love to play with you. How about we head out right now?"

Linda looked at Jaime. Skateboarding sounded interesting. Maybe she would somehow try this muggle thing one day. She didn't have any problems with keeping trying something over and over again. So, she guessed, she wouldn't fail. Maybe if someone else would talk about it later, she would ask that person to try to teach her. This thing could work in her house as she guessed, so it must it interesting new experience.
Sometimes Linda got lost in her own thoughts that she already almost forgot what the were agreeing on. Music, something Li could spend a lot without noticing time. She imagined drums with her playing. That should be something quite awesome. Linda could already hear it. Then she looked a bit sad and dreaming. There was one type of drums she really wanted to have and to learn how to play. Drum that was also circle but it was hollow inside and it had some holes in it. By touching it in different ways there could be quite nice sound as she heard once from her aunt.
Coming back from thoughts, Linda heard Jaime's offer. It will be great. Let's go now. As she said that, she prepared to go, so Li stood up and started to move slowly to the exit from Great Hall.

Jaime watched as the girl got up and made her way slowly to the exit. She wondered if maybe the two of them would become friends, or maybe even good ones. Jaime hadn't had many friends throughout her life, not because people avoided her, but because she'd never tried to. Well, she did have one friend at Hogwarts, Nora, but they didn't interact much, and since they were both the kind of people who thought far more than they talked, when they did meet up, they much preferred to read together or play chess. Nora had expressed some interest in learning the drums earlier in the school year, but she quickly dropped the idea the second they realized, 1) how uncoordinated Nora was and 2) how bad of a teacher Jaime was.
"Coming!" she called, after realizing Linda was already almost at the exit. Popping up from her seat, Jaime quickly made her way to Linda's side, and they headed out together. She was in no rush to find some platonic soulmate, but she knew her sibling, Spencer, would be proud of her for even interacting with an actual other human being. In the end, Jaime supposed it didn't really matter if they would last as friends, though she hoped they would, as at least they were enjoying themselves in the moment.
