And she had tried her best not to cry too so she was a big girl. But she was going to ignore the whole part where even though she tried not to cry, she did. "Why did you read a book about cooties? Did you read one about snowmen? Can you read me a book about snowmen?" Ellinia liked snowmen. Snowmen were cute and pretty. "My sisters told me all about cooties. And snowmen. You should read me a book about snowmen." And if he asked why the answer was snowman. That one word was good enough.

The girl was about five hundred percent sure that loony boy was lying about the pronunciation of the house names. "So you're telling me you're not a Hufferpuff?" she asked. Because she wasn't quite sure. He was confusing her. Ellinia didn't like that. And the boy was most definitely loony, especially since he was asking her how he could prove to her that he wasn't loony. She pretended to think for a bit before grinning.

"You could read me a story about snowmen!"

Because that wasn't loony at all and she liked snowmen. A lot.

What did he have against badgers? What were badgers? "Why don't you like badgers?" She put the thing on her list of things to find out. She would probably have to go to a book palace and find the book about these weird creatures. They sounded like bat guys to her and she had a feeling they were not half bat, half man creatures. If they were, they were terrifying and loony boy had the right to not like them.

That was confusing. "So if I don't have a wand... I can't do magic?" Ellinia asked, eyes wide. "Then how come when we don't have wands an we're little we can accidentally make things happen?" she asked. Because that was confusing. Her whole face scrunched up in thought before she let out a breath. She didn't want to think about it. It made her snowman's brain hurt. What were jeans? "I don't get it." He was making her snowman's head hurt even more. "I think someone should give the squid their wand and let him do magic." Because it'd be nice for him to do it too instead of watching everyone else do it. "Give him yours."

...

He had a good idea. Ellinia thought about it for a minute before nodding her head. "And we'll get hot chocolate? And we'll build an ice castle?" she asked, eyes wide and hopeful. She wanted an ice castle to jump around in and put her snow globes in. "I want to be the princess of the whole snow village," she added. And she wanted a crown and a stick but she had a wand so she supposed she didn't need the stick. And she also wanted him to be the horsey to give her rides around the village but she'd ask him about that when the time came.

Healer? Hospital wing? What? There was a hospital here? Ellinia hadn't seen a red cross anywhere. She stared at the boy a bit blankly before she shrugged. "Idunno," she replied before petting her snow globe a bit. He was weird. She was a first year, how was she supposed to have all of the answers? He was older so he should have more answers than she did. Silly loony boy.

"I don't ask that many questions." Since when were questions bad? Her mommy always told her to ask questions. It was a way to learn. "Well, I didn't see him!" Ellinia said, pouting. And she had kinda really wanted to. "How do we call him? Does he have a cellie phone? My mommy has one but she wouldn't let me take it here." Which was a shame because there were loads of games on it and she liked all of them.


Immunization records? But cooties weren't even real, were they?? No, they couldn't possibly be. Or maybe they were? Zander wasn't even sure what to believe anymore. "Okay.... If you saaaay so," he said in a disbelieving tone. Even if they were real, he wouldn't let her get away too easily. And now, even more questions. Of course. "Well I read it because I wanted to make sure that I didn't get cooties from girls like you at school." Better safe than sorry? Snowmen? Why did she always go back to snowmen? It was autumn for Merlin's sake. She has a WHOLE three months devoted to snow, couldn't she focus on leaves this week? "Uh no. I've never read a book about snowmen..." Why? Because snowmen weren't that interesting. That's why. All they did was stand there. This girl was delusional. "Have you ever even seen a snowman in real life? They don't even do much." He just didn't understand why she idolized them. They literally just sit there and melt.

"It's pronounced Huff- you know what nevermind." She's a lost cause. "I am most definitely, 100 percent not a Hufflepuff," he said standing a little straighter. Hufflepuff wasn't that bad, compared to Slytherin anyways. But he is a lion deep-down, okay REALLY deep down. But it's there. He is a lion somewhere. "Why? You don't think I'm Gryffindor enough?" Because he totally could be Gryffindor-like if he wanted to. Yeah. Anytime he wanted.

*Groans* Again with the snowmen. "You really do like snowmen don't you?" Hopefully it was just a phase. Zander was obsessed with his stuffed-lion first year. But once second year started that thing was tossed into... a special secret compartment at the bottom of his school trunk the bin. She'd have to get over it eventually. Again with this snowman story. But he didn't haaave a snowman story! "I guess if it makes me un-loony then i'll read you one...." Maybe then she'd stop asking so many questions. "I haven't got a book about snowmen though, do you have one I could read you?" And if she doesn't? Awh what a pity. No snoman story for her.

Why didn't he like badgers? "Because, Badgers are the official mascot of Hufflepuff house. And I am NOT a hufflepuff," He said matter-of-factly. "So I don't like Badgers." It all made a lot of sense, naturally. See lions are cool, but badgers are gross. Yeah.

Oh... Yeah. Accidental magic. Wandless magic. He had forgotten about that. How did this first year outsmart him every single time? This is not allowed. "Well you see, um..." Why can they do magic without a wand? "Well... There's quite a simple explanation... You see...." He had absolutely no idea where he was going with this. "Well-- OH LOOK IT'S THE SQUID AGAIN!" .... This time he was totally bluffing. The first time it was real. This time he just needed an excuse and a topic change.

"Uh yeah, sure kid. We can get all the hot chocolate you want," he assured her seeing as her face lit up at the suggestion. She was actually kind of cute when she wasn't bombarding him with questions and accusing him of lying about his house-hood. "You can definitely be princess. As long as I don't have to be your servant." What? If he was going to help her with this little fantasy of hers, then he might as well get a good role in it all. He'd have to be the royal king. But he'd ask her about that when the time came.

Cellie phone? To call the squid. "No, you just have to call out his name a couple of times and hope that he hears you!" Duuuuh. Giant squids have super hypersensitive hearing powers. "I don't think he'd be able to get a signal down there anyways."
