She'd wanted to change her name for years and years, as long as she'd thought it was a bit too fussy and girly, but it had finally grown on her. The thing about being a Genevieve and a Vivi was that she could choose to be dignified. And choose not to be as well.
Spike looked a little perplexed. "You don't have to lie, y'know," he said, folding his arms across his chest. "Not to me, anyway." Some other people might be impressed by the glorified truth, but Spike wasn't. Simply and logically minded, was Spike.
"And I don't know. Never really thought about it, seeing as I can't change it anyway. Something more interesting than Robert, that's for sure." And let's face it
most names were more interesting than Robert.
SPOILER!!: Louisa

Spike tilted his head to the side. It was a brilliant idea?! His lips curled upwards into a smile, her enthusiasm infectious. "I'm not sure if there's any in the greenhouses at the moment, but I can ask Professor Bentley. Otherwise I'll pot some seeds up..."
That was far more to Spike's liking. He could be a good Prefect and help with the House project, but be faaaar away from all the felines who liked to chase his froggies. Purrrrrfect.
SPOILER!!: Jacks

Even as Spike spoke she half listened and nodded, "Suuuure. The common room here is lovely. I quite like it." He HAD mentioned the common room, yes? She was sure she had gleaned at least that much from his ramblings. And as he called Vivi, Jacks she pointed to herself. "Yeah. I'm Jacks. All whimsical and whatnot, apparently." She shot Vivi a grin at that.
Aaaaand... the nosy head girl spoke up and blah blah blah. No. She merely waved a hand at her. Nothing to see here. Addy was SURE that the QC and the other prefect could handle anything if it went amiss. THEY WERE STUDENT LEADERS, AFTER ALL. Hmph.
And yeah so... as Milton spoke she, not so nicely, rolled her eyes. "Don't flatter yourself, dude." Nope. Don't. Pffft. She leaned her elbows on the back of HER chair and waited for him to direct his attention elsewhere...
Almost on cue with Vivi telling her to smoosh him did Addy scamper up the back of the chair and perch herself on the high back, feet dangling dangerously close to the captain. "Think I ought to? I don't weigh an awful lot. Perhaps we should just dog pile the boy?" EVIL SMIRK.
Turning back to the chair, Spike nodded. "Er, sure," he said, rubbing the nape of his neck, "The Common Room is lovely."
He scooted round the chair a bit to give Jacks more space, and then frowned as she perched on the back of the chair. "Er...do you think...?"
SPOILER!!: Vivi again

"Oh, fine. Let's all sit in the chair." She made a small attempt to hurry Spike along as well, although she had a feeling he wasn't as keen to sit in Milton's lap as Jacks seemed to be.
Just to be polite, she took the arm of the chair and leaned in against Addy and Milton both, her legs dangling on the floor. "This is cozy. Should have let me duplicate the chair.
Hang on? ALL sit in the chair? Nuh-uh. Spike had no desire to be in the lap of his (hopefully) future Captain. Somehow, he didn't think that would go down well before tryouts.
"I should probably get to the greenhouses," he said, glancing between the Head Girl, the construction process, and the common room entrance. "It was lovely meeting you Vivi, Jacks..." He gave each of them a smile and a nod. "And don't squish Shacklebolt
too much," he added.
And with that, he quickly headed out of the room. A Milton-Vivi-Jack sandwich just wasn't for him.
