Shaking the boy's hand he then shoved them back in his pockets and watched Lexi with a smirk on his face. Yup he knew she could handle herself and would be quite entertained to see if he was right. Hearing the boy's question he nodded, "Something like that. I was home schooled with the same tutor James used before coming here. Mum said I was annoying her so is now sending me to Hogwarts." Thanks mum, he thought with a smirk. Completely oblivious to how the other boy felt over Lexi (because he's clueless like that) Salander watched a the blonde drama sizzle--then fizzled. He got himself out of harm's way for a good reason-- safety first of all. Profit comes a close second. But without a fight to hedge bets for, there aint really much going for the latter. Shrugging, he caught the tail end of what Ivan was saying "Home-schooled huh? Hmmm.... never thought of that for myself...." he said and trailed off. The Slytherin lad knew it would've been impossible to homeschool him-- his father couldnt tolerate magical anything in the house. And then he smirked at the last part "Dude, thank your mom. Really. Thats a lease on freedom to do whatever you want without wrestling for it. Trust me when I say you're luckier than most." SPOILER!!: Treyen!Kurumi!Ellie! Quote:

And he'll literally go his own way, because she was going to Wimbourne after this, and he had to go back to Appleby, thank Merlin.
The young woman had noticed, though, that he'd written his name on the present, which was something she wasn't particularly amused about, but magic does wonderful things, doesn't it? It was instantly erased.
Honestly, Kaika just didn't believe him anymore! This was all Cricket's fault.
He, Treyen Lockhart, was also invited, to every party on the planet (by the way) because he'd made such a promise to a certain person called Aaron, right? Mmmm, that wasn't the REAL reason. Free ice cream? And a chance to see the long lost Jake Lawson or whatever his name was now? Yeah, that was THE reason.
Silly name changes. He'll be Treyen Lockhart forever. There was NO way he'll be trading a 'Lockhart' for anything in the world. Seriously. And there he was! Easy to spot after she'd seen him in Diagon Alley not too long ago! Awww, she couldn't believe Jake was already 17! She still pictured him as a sweet 11 year old. A very sweet one. Her sweet little Huffie boy. Star Seeker. Pink!haired boy. It all seemed like a million years ago. "Jake!" she exclaimed, though not the high pitched sound that once made an appearance at the Leaky Cauldron. "Happy Birthday!" she said, as she hugged the young man. Whoa, 17, that's...something, you know?
Wait. What?! This wasn't the little boy he once knew. Fletcheeeeer! Come to the rescue! "Jake?" yeah, Treyen blinked, once, twice, thrice. Where did the cry-baby go to? "Yeah, that, happy birthday" he nodded, with a smile, that's as best as Jake was going to get, no hug, just a smile from his side.
He was no Sir Fletcher, you know. And Treyen could've been more enthusiastic about this, coming of age was simply brilliant. "This...is a little present from me," she said, as she motioned towards the little box in her hand, it could fit on a pocket, really. "From us, actually," Treyen hurried to say, smirking away. "No, from me." And the look towards Treyen was one that shut him up.
He wasn't getting near her present to Jake. He'll have to figure out a much intricate way to do so. "Do I leave it somewhere...or can you take it now?" it was best if he took it, really, in case Treyen actually managed to put his name in there as well.
Fine. No present. "Yeah, I didn't get one," nor he mentioned when he'll be getting Treyen's present either. "But I do hope you have a brilliant birthday with the ones that love you." And that lot seemed to include his sister, apparently. But..."Vannie!" and she wasn't holding anyone or anything, except for the box, that meant...hugs, yes.
And then she eyed the girl Jake was holding. Yes, it wasn't until now she noticed the little girl. "Wait...is this? Is she? Yours?" she asked, eying the girl once more. She was just adorable whoever she belonged to. And looked like a pixie. The dress, of course, she looked like a pixie thanks to dress.
His eyes wandered off for a moment after his sister's attention was sidetracked by a young little girl on Jake's arms.
And he was soooo going to take this moment to write his name on that present when...sigh...he forgot to bring something to write with! Yeah, never mind, Jake won't get the present from him. No big deal, right?
Hold on a minute. His head was tilted to one side as this girl seemed rather familiar to him. "You go to Hogwarts, right?" of course she had to, because she was also between all those students when Lafay decided to test the regrowing bones potion on them. Yikes. He remembered himself with no jaw and shuddered. "You bake cookies," he nodded, most certain of this. "I'm Treyen, Treyen Lockhart," the one boy who brought absolutely nothing to Jake. Ha. Quote:

Maybe that little burst of Gryffindor courage only took effect when she was within Hogwarts. Some Gryffindor she was.
But then...the ice breaker! He had mentioned cookies and the clouds parted. " I do," she smiled opened the box and offering him his choice of happy gingerbread faces. " I'm Kurumi, Kurumi Hollingberry," she said bowing her head slightly. " Y-Y-You look different with your jaw bone..." Her free hand immediately flew to her mouth. First, she didn't want to be reminded of Dragon Lady's classes and second, that had been a traumatizing experience for everyone. Kurumi remembered crying...in front of Dragon Lady...not her finest hour. Quote:

And so that's where Ellie went. To go get some ice cream. While bunches of other people arrived.
So, that's where she'd been, eating ice cream and watching. Heh. She should really join a conversation...Really.
Out from the corner of his eye he spots two younguns from school. "Kurumi! Treyen!" he called out as he walked over to them. "You friends with Jake too? Cool! Like who doesnt he know huh?" he chuckled. He peers down the cookies Kurumi brought with her and grinned "More awesome baking from your non-magical oven?" he winked.
Those looked good with something... cool. Like ice cream. Or for his case, a decidedly less sweet sherbet.
He turned just in time to cross arms with another girl. It was the young Ravenclaw red-head from the Tri-Wizard Tournament "Hey there...." he started then trailed off. Typical of him to forget her name. Or forget to get it most likely. "You were at the Tri-Wizard stands right?... on the second task when Fletcher came out pint sized?" He gestured to himself "Salander. Sorry I dont think I was able to get your name with our small problem going on then." |
