"Thank you!" Grin.

She deserved these congratulationses, you know. It felt SO GOOD to hear them.

And...Yeah, Stella hit the nail on the head with that. Among everything Ellie was excited about tonight, seeing Treyen tomorrow was definitely number one. "VERY," she answered. "Excited to see....Maaaaaatt?" Matt? That was his name, right?

If not, oh well, after tonight, Ellie'll probably never see Stella again, so what did it matter if she didn't know who her boyfriend was.

"Don't forget to send me tickets to your first performance. I know that you'll be awesome in whatever you do."

True, acting as a career path didnt even occur to him, not an obvious choice with their abilities unlike Muggles but then again.... why not "...A career on stage or would you have plans of infiltrating the Muggle business?" Magic in the Muggle world specially the likes of Hollywood wasnt as rare as the Ministry of Magic would like to believe.


Oh she speaks!

He felt the nudge from Stella and glanced at her momentarily before giving a quick nod "A fellow Yank..." he grinned as he shifted seats. The red-head wasnt sitting too far away. As he settled into his new seat he offered his hand and said "Hi I'm Vickers.... " Hurrah for improved social skills, books arent the only things he's learned from this term "First term here right?..." because he didnt remember seeing her at all last term, given that the only ginger in the House of Ravenclaw was Ellie and one or two other younguns "... How are you like this place so far?"

Whatever. They were talking about her boyfriend. And Ellie was keenly interested. "What about Treyen?" she called to them, smiling. Could she join? Could she talk about him, too? Could she brag about him? Could they talk about how excited she was about seeing him in less than 24 hours?


The thank you that she’d gotten from Ellie in response to her congratulating her honestly was expected. Stella had known that practically before she’d decided to say it, considering that was likely the one reason they’d never really talked all that much even though they’d shared a dorm room. It wasn’t easy conversing with someone when they were pretty well focused on that one subject that she preferred avoiding. She might have gotten over the issue with what she’d left behind in France, but that didn’t make her like the sport any better. The only real subject they could manage to talk about was their boyfriends, which had apparently been another good choice of topic to bring up. At least all the excitement hadn’t been due to winning the Quidditch cup, and she’d smiled at the exuberant response. Even more at the question that followed, although it had taken her a moment to understand what Ellie had said. She hadn’t ever heard Matt’s name drawn out like that before. “I am,” she replied. “Is Treyen meeting you at the station?” It was another logical guess with the excitement. She couldn’t say she was as sure about that herself, though. As far as she knew she’d have to wait until later to actually see Matt, but she’d deal with it.

Oddly enough, that question had segued easily in to her conversation with Vickers and Alyssa, seeing as it seemed like both of them had made that connection when she’d mentioned WADA. “Yes, Treyen is at WADA too,” she confirmed, sneaking a glance over at Ellie again as she’d spoken, just to see if she’d picked up on their subject. “I don’t know if I’ll see him often while I’m there, though. Since he’ll be a year ahead of myself, but it’s comforting to know there will be a familiar face,” she continued. Even if she hadn’t ever really talked to the former Head Boy all that much, and if she was going to be entirely honest, she was happier about the fact she’d be able to see Matt a lot more, since they’d be living together while she was there and he was at university. She didn’t mention that, though. There had been enough questions regarding her ring from Paulie, let alone telling people about the actual plans she knew about. It was easier to avoid that topic, at least as much as she could. And Vickers had given her another angle to grab onto anyhow. “Stage. I’ve done a bit of it in the past, so it’s familiar to me,” she answered. That wasn’t counting her short-lived career as a fictional hinkypunk defeater in DADA, either.

By then Vickers had noticed her nudge along with the request from the other redhead asking for him, the headmaster’s speech had been given, and she’d lost all track of any of their conversation topics. Let alone the fact that food had appeared at the table behind herself. She’d heard Ellie finally seem to pick up on the fact they’d mentioned Treyen again, however, and she blinked over at the redhead. Trying to push the emotions starting to build up inside herself knowing that her and the other seventh years weren’t the only ones leaving. They’d started off the term without the headmaster telling them not to die, people had frozen and everything, and now he was leaving the school as well. She didn’t want to leave Ellie in suspense, though. “Just the fact Treyen is at WADA. I’m going to be going there after summer,” she replied, looking around the room again just to give herself something to focus on, or not focus on. Either way, her eyes had landed on the memory book, so she’d half-stood. “Excuse me. I’ll be back in a few minutes,” she said, before heading over to the book. They could talk all about Treyen, or anything else, after she had gone and written down the thoughts in her head right now.
