Michael sniffled. Hearing another tiny voice that sounded sort of sad like him made him pause. Carefully, slowly, Michael leaned back, picking his head up. "No one will say 'yes' to being my friend," Michael said loudly, squaring his shoulders so he looked bigger than he felt. "What's wrong with you?"
Michael immediately forgot about sniffling and crying and being sad.
This had just gotten Very Interesting.
"What do you mean, witches and wizards?" he asked in a hushed voice. "Are you a witch?" He hoped if she was, she was a good witch. Like Glinda. Or maybe Samantha.
"Yes, at least until I came here," said Luna, half-prepared for him to laugh at her or tell her it wasn't real. "I'm Luna." She patted herself down, and pulled her wand from her boot. "See? This is my wand?"
"You're Luna Lovegood?" Michael asked, completely and utterly awed. "You're AWESOME!" His eyes widened a little as he saw her wand. Immediately he reached out for it, then hesitated with his fingers mere centimeters away. "Can I see it? Does it WORK? Can you ward off Dementoids?"
It was one thing to meet someone who'd read Harry's books.
This, however, was completely new. She had... a fan! Someone liked her! Her mouth actually fell open a little bit.
"I... well, of course. I'm afraid it doesn't work here. The place takes away magic..."
Shock slowing giving away to a smile, Luna handed it over. "It's rowan, with a unicorn hair core. I'm afraid the books hadn't specified that when I read them myself."
