Mandy had stopped to drop off the books at her dorm, she replaced them with this months stack of light comic reading and headed out to meet Kite. When she found him he was playing the guitar, she knew the song both of her older brothers adored Metallica.
She listened for a moment than said simply, "Good song," standing there holding her comics to her chest.
Kite flashed her a smile, teeth gleaming even in the grayness of the day. "It is a good song," he agreed, straightening some and sitting back, though his fingers kept moving without his conscious control. He tilted his head at the stone wall he was sitting on. "Make yourself at home," he offered dryly, since Hogwarts belonged to all of them equally. He waited for her to settle before saying, "So. We were talking about loser unity, if I remember right."
Mandy settled comic books in a pile next to her as she sat down, "Yes indeed, the unity of losers," Mandy said smiling. "Or 'How-I-Think-We-Should-All-Band-together-And-Punch-Peoples'," she said rifling through the pile of books. "I mean, just enough to get the point across because after a couple punches all the followers will get the point and back off the whole blood issue."
"Violence aside," Kite told her idly, "It's not gonna happen. Not until some think-tank somewhere manages to get their act together, come up with the research to prove there's no magical difference between muggleborns, half-bloods, pure-bloods, and such. Even if they did find the evidence..." And Kite was honestly certain they would, if they looked, "... S'unlikely they'd release it. Ruffle too many feathers, make too many important people a mite unfriendly."
"The difference between us and pure bloods is the lack of genetic defects," Mandy said, triumphantly pulling the Uncanny X-Men she was looking for from the pile. "Seriously, I don't see how they can go around saying there's a difference in the first place."
