Op. See. Lex may have been one of the most oblivious but she still picked up on things. This one was new--well not so new anymore but you got the idea. Were the girl in a different house she might have noticed sooner. There was simply just a wariness to be had about Ravenclaws. They'd proven nothing but trouble fo her and her bestfriend. We also notice the face brightening, yes, this basically meant this plan was set in stone now. "I'll have a lot of free time, period. The summer'll be two and a half months and the trip is only for a week. We could probably meet for ice-cream then get it done." Ice-cream was a summer must and it felt good not seeing someone cringe at the word, though she didn't blame the others...that had been a traumatic term....

Of all the cities Jasmine named, Lex was taken by the sound of L.A, mostly because she felt like she'd heard it before. Perhaps one of those places her father had gone for business and taken her back something nice from. "I'll suggest those names to Lottie, it'll help with the planning. Which do you suggest?" Lex asked curiously, ignoring the kneazle that crawled his way into her lap and swiped the slice of turkey she'd been feeding him. The girl used to live there, her opinion was greatly appreciated.

Lex nodded, taking another bite of her pie. "I can understand that." Not the being the new kid part, because back then her whole year had been new and she hadn't transfered since, but just Beauxbaton not being right. At the mention of being Prefect her eyes lowered and she spent what might have been a long time just stroking her kneazle's fur before offering a response. "It's great, you know, at first. Calling all the shots, being in charge...until you realize how much you fail at it and suddenly it's just a heavy load on your chest that you can't shake even after locking your badge in your trunk." But that was just her. Surely the others would offer up a more...er...hopeful outlook!


Jasmine was ashamed to admit it but she was a bit of a sugarholic too. She had kind of learned to pace herself, but the temptation was always there. Then Jasmine had a sudden thought. "When you go to California, you have to try See's candy. It is soooo good. You'll love it."

When Lex said she'd have free time for pygmy puff shopping this summer, Jasmine was pleased. When she mentioned ice cream, well that just took it to another level. "Ice cream sounds wonderful. We'll have to make it a date then." The prospect of hanging out with a new friend? this summer was appealing to Jasmine. It was friend with a question mark because Jasmine had the feeling that Lex didn't take friendship lightly. You probably had to earn her friendship, not that it was a bad thing. Anyway, she was glad that Lex and Felix had crawled over to the Ravenclaw table after all.

Hmmm. Which California city would Jasmine suggest they visit? "They're all great, but in a different way so it depends on what you like. San Diego, that's where I'm from, is very laid back. It has great beaches and it's good if you like to do outdoorsy things. Plus it has a world famous zoo. Now L.A. has great beaches too. It's more glitzy, you know, where all the fabulous and famous hang out. San Francisco is just a cool city. Lots of hills, cable cars, great food." You can't go wrong with any of them."

When Jasmine asked about being a Prefect, Lex's reaction surprised her. The delayed response said a lot. It seemed to have become a burden for her. Jasmine could not imagine having all that responsibility. She could see how it could be both a blessing and a curse. "I'm sure that you're doing a great job", Jasmine said, attempting to be helpful. "I bet there are a lot of the younger kids who look up to you."
