"Une meilleure voeux que j'ai reçu, jeune lion," Justine teased, holding herself up importantly. Naturally she was in the right here, even if she's completely failed to notice the young man's presence just a few inches away from her... "It is good to see you my friend, I've missed you," Justine sincerely admitted.
He looked well, healthy and happy and Justine was pleased to see it, Louis was one of the few friends she's made at Hogwarts and seeing him look so well made her exponentially happier. But her examination of her friend was cut short as he drew her attention to a newly sorted Ravenclaw.
"Paloma? Zat is a lovely name, it is Spanish, oui?" Justine said, turning her attention to the young woman, smiling politely to her. Any friend of Louis was a a friend to Justine, and as she had been in the sticky situation of being transferred in (Justine was assuming this was the case with Paloma), she felt compelled to befriend the girl and assist her in whatever way she could. "Oui!? Oh zat is wonderful! dites-moi tout sur vous-même!" Justine excitedly said, her refined Parisian accent slipping back into it's natural Québécois French, a slip Justine hardly noticed. Quote:

She guessed, holding herself from a laughing fit. Well, she wasn't too keen on the idea about guys; at least she didn't feel that way. "Let's just let this year rock and we'll see." She winked, although really meaning that she'd stay until graduation. It was a promise... "That's why she missed you so much, Luna. You can't accept little...details." But then again, she wasn't to complain about the lady kitten, most likely because her own was an alone menace to have around. She grinned though, and took out an envelope with a few pictures of the kittens, for Lou to have. "Here, to celebrate your title."
With a helpless sigh, 'Tiny' as Lou called her, shook her head. "I live to perform that romance, yet I don't think to find that honesty and playfulness in heart, body and mind in no one." Somehow, she didn't believe in it, YET. "But people are free to inspire me. You and Delilah could be a lovely example, yeah?" After all, she could use the moves to look more natural upstage.
At his comment about her studies, she couldn't help but blush then laugh. "Lou, keep low the comments about...the lessons. Please." She wanted to be on low profile, to enjoy her time at Hogwarts and also learn, to control herself, in the most possible way. "Don't worry, then. Just try not to cross my path when I come up with something..." She smirked. Not that she was to come up with a stungbomb in the middle of the year. Whistle.
Just then, Paloma noticed a girl approaching Louis who in a matter of seconds, poked him on the ribs. In a silent snort, she held a loud laugh that could've turned embarrassing. As they spoke, she couldn't help but notice the closeness, and freeness that Justine, as it was her name, and Lou had. Of course, it was his personality to be this friendly...and of course, for her a chance to make her own, too. All friends of Lou were to become hers, if they chose to...
And also...the acccent. For a second, Paloma shrugged her elbows and tried to translate everything in her head from French to Spanish, then think of a decent answer in English. Wasn't this a pleasure? "Umm...Yeah, it means...'Dove' in Spanish. In fact I am from there..." Yeah, she was going to take a bit to open up to other people, but she was also eager to make new friends than all the ones she'd made in Beauxbatons. "I was in Beauxbatons for the past two years, and I...decided to make a transfer..." For the sake of peeking curiousity, she guessed? "But. How about you, where are you from?" And that's where she really needed the scoop from, because her accent, was something different. Like most students there, but getting to know Justine might be the greatest step for a good friendship.
“Sounds like she lucked out,” said Louis with raised eyebrows when Paloma shared the story of her sister’s Hogwarts days. Though he’d never met her, she certainly sounded different from his friend, and he couldn’t help but wonder what their relationship at home must’ve been like.
Before he could get too nosy, the girl had distracted him with an envelope. Oh? Lou raised a curious eyebrow and opened the tiny envelope, his blue eyes lighting up at the many moving photographs that spilled out. He looked like a proud mother who’d just received the photographs from her daughter’s kindergarten graduation. “You took these?” he asked, though the answer was obvious, as he examined the photographs. “They’re adorable, Tiny… Thank you.” He looked up from the photographs and to his friend, smiling with honest gratefulness.
Her following words made him laugh. Him and Delilah inspiring? He didn’t consider their relationship to be very romantic or inspiring, as they were rather private, but accepted the compliment anyway, his blue eyes falling shyly. “Thanks, I’ll make sure to let her know, she'll be flattered.”
Lou nodded his head with a playful smile when Paloma made him promise not to say anything about her lessons, when the girl began to interact with the charismatic Justine. Ah, yes… yes, his plan was working. Both girls seemed to be getting along wonderfully, and they had so much in common already. Good job, Bolton, good job. Now, if he could only do the same for his fellow Lions…
“ Je vous ai manqué aussi, professeur,” said Louis with a smile as Justine teased him in French, his brows furrowing just very slightly as he took in her accent. Huh. It sounded a bit different from the way he remembered it. When Paloma asked where her fellow Ravenclaw was from, Lou eagerly butt in, all too excited to have the girls discover all the things they had in common, “Justine’s from Paris.” He smiled and turned to the girl, as if awaiting for her to confirm this lie fact.
