Sophia's been sitting in the lobby with her doll, reading the second Harry Potter book. She'll have to go back and read it with Daryl again, but that's okay because reading it once means she'll know what he's going to argue about.

Since he thinks Harry is a wuss.

But she looks up when she sees someone coming through the window. She looks...confused, and so Sophia wonders if she isn't knew. She's never met a new arrival before, except for Maximus, but he was sort of in bad shape.

Standing up, she goes to the door, waiting for the person to walk in.

(Clearly Sophia hasn't seen the HP movies. Yet. >.>)

Emma was still frustrated, that was for sure, but at least she had a bit more of an explanation as to where she was. A village. Not a loop. No other peculiar children although there were other people here with special abilities. She had no idea what to make of this.

She noticed the girl waiting by the door and images of the younger children back home flashed in her mind. She was going to try - try - not to take her frustrations out on this girl, who obviously was stuck here just like she was.

"Right. So this is the hotel, then?"

Sophia nods. "Yes. It's nice, though." Better than camping, anyway.

"Did you just get here?"

"About a half hour ago, yes. I've been all around this bloody town trying to get someone to tell me what on Earth I'm doing here."

She sighed and sat down on the couch. Apparently she was supposed to get a key from the front desk, but she didn't feel like it yet.

"I was in the middle of something, you know. It's not really nice to just pluck people out of their lives."
