Luna nods, putting a hand to her still-warm cheek. "How true," she murmurs, thinking of the number of times she has heard 'Loony' Lovegood whispered as she walked away.
River's glee at seeing the conjured birds cheers her up significantly though, and with a little wave of her wand, she sends them over to circle the other girl's dark head.
"I can... I can make water, unlock doors, make things float, stun people, protect myself, and ward off things like Dementors." At the last example she cants her head slightly, thinking of the half-finished mural of her friends on her bedroom ceiling. A flick, a chant of 'Expecto Patronum', and a silver hare jumps from the end of her wand, falling to the floor and hopping a few feet in either direction before sitting for a moment and vanishing. "One uses those to ward off the guards of Azkaban prison. They're tall awful things that live on human misery, so you have to think a happy thought and conjure a Patronus to make them go away."
