"Well, I hope Selina isn't too hard on you...or the rest of the team for that matter," she said with a light laugh. Truth be told, after Kurumi had heard Selina's plans for tryouts Kurumi was rather glad that she had made the decision long ago to focus on other things and let others fly for Gryffindor. She was having nightmares just thinking about it all. Hopefully what Selina had mentioned about chocolate frogs had been a lie....

She then turned her head when another lion joined their conversation. "Gideon is...but I am not," she said, shaking her head. At least she had no plans of trying out right now, studies and prefecting were sort of more important to Kurumi and, well, the kitchens were open and she had an entire year of missed baking to make up for.

This news may or may not have come as a shock to Gideon, seeing as Selina was the only person Kurumi had told about her hanging up her Seeker's uniform, but better late than never, yeah? He would have figured things out come tryouts anyway.

"It's nice to meet you...Kiora Quentin," Kurumi said as she took the girl's hand. Should she have introduced herself with her full name as well? Better late than never, right? "Kurumi Hollingberry." Just to cover everything.

And then another girl joined their conversation and asked about New Zealand. Was the name Kiora a very New Zealand sounding name? Kurumi wasn't familiar with the country at all to know, but many people had guessed her Japanese heritage based on her name and her obviously Asian features.
