She supposed Lisa had some good points. "I guess you're right. I also guess that's why I will never be an author. I hate reading to begin with, so writing is....blegh," she shivered. "I am going to dread writing essays for classes," ugh. The thought of it made her heart do this really awful swirl-y thing that she hated the feeling of. It was the worst. "I don't CARE if my enemies hear me. Let Daniel Yoon hear my EVIL PLANS for his eyebrows," she said as she leaned back on her elbows, kicked her feet forward, and tossed her hair behind her. "Do YOU have any enemies yet? My mum says I should punch Daniel in the face if he's that mean to me. I've never punched someone before........"
She trailed off, deep in thought now. Her dad had different advice, but none the less equally as aggressive. It made her think about how different a lot of the others' parents were.
"Oh. I thought you were just...British," she admitted. "So your family's from Korea? That's cool. Is it nice there? Pretty?" She had never been anywhere in Asia, but it all looked so foreign and pretty to her.
SLYTHERIN ALFIE WAS FRENCH? Ugh. V made a face at that. "I am currently mAD at Alfie. Maybe I'll swear at him in FRENCH." Since he's understand. But then he might make fun of how poorly she spoke it. So she'd stick to swearing at him in English, perhaps, if she could muster up the nerve to. Or maybe she'd let it go for the time being and bring it back up at an opportune time. The possibilities....
SoooOoooooooo Lisa's family seemed fascinating. Muggle born, but all of the kids had magic...and an adopted sibling? "The battle, I heard, was awful," she sat up straight, feeling important from having heard firsthand info from Fowl. "People DIED in front of the kids...the students...I am so glad I wasn't here yet. Imagine being sad from it. I don't want to be that sad. A lot of the older kids look sad...." what an absolute waste of time it was to be sad at a totally cool magic school. She felt a little bad for them. "Evan..." she wrinkled her nose then nodded. "He rode the train with me because he saw me crying, actually. I just....realized that's your BROTHER!" she squealed a little at how POSITIVELY SILLY that was and laughed. "Oh he was SO nice, Lisa. He helped me stop crying."
But back to her own family, and her siblings. "I do, but they annoy me because they always want what I have because they don't understand anything because they're too DUMB because they're so LITTLE. I think my sister will get on my nerves one day. Roman is very quiet. Regina was born first, then Roman came after," she sighed. "I bet mum and dad miss me SO much. The twins are EXHAUSTING." She was only repeating things she had heard her parents say. "Should we play something, then?"
Lisa liked being RIGHT.
V hated reading. Huh. She HAD never met someone hating reading because all of her siblings LOVED reading. “
So if you don’t like reading or writing... do you like movies? TV shows?” she asked curiously. Lisa raised both eyebrows when V mentioned that she had plans for Daniel Yoon’s eyebrows. “
Oh yeah. What are you going to do? Use engorgio to make them really really large or just shave them? Or dye them bright pink?” mused Lisa, wondering if she could offer a few ideas for a few pranks. She liked Daniel and V so a brief innocent thought crossed her mind and she wondered if she should tell V off for plotting. Hopefully... Daniel wouldn’t fall for whatever V had planned. He was clever not as clever as Alfie because Daniel didn’t agree with her but still clever. Her? Enemies? Lisa shook her head. “
Not that I know of... I don’t really like Scarlett... I think. She wasn’t nice to Remy the other day. Came off really rude but then again.... maybe Scarlett was just in a foul mood?” Her eyebrows stayed raised when V mentioned what her mother had told her. “
Wait. Let me get this straight. Your mother wanted you to MAKE enemies?” That was so so different from her parents. She had gotten a whole talking to from Appa, Eomma, AAAAND Noah about being nice and not causing too much trouble.
“
Born in the US and moved over here when I was really little. That’s why my accent sounds so British,” explained Lisa with a smile. Was Korea pretty? It was. She didn’t find it as pretty as Japan but Korea was home and felt more homey. Japan was modern, clean, and sharp in stark comparison to Korea’s homeliness. “
Its very beautiful. I love it. I’m not sure if I’d go live there cause I wasn’t born there... I think I’d have to get reacquainted with the culture.” She was a lot more spunky than most of her cousins (female and male) and she always forgot to abide by certain mannerisms with them. "
Is your family from the UK originally or elsewhere?”
Lisa blinked, unsure why V was mad at Alfie... OH. It was probably because he explained how V had cried in front of others. “
Is it cause of class? I hope you guys become friends... He’s nice. I like him.” She paused before quickly adding. “
I don’t like what he said in class though...”
She nodded, not bothering to comment as V spoke about the battle being awful. Lisa had had no idea until one day her parents brought her siblings home and they looked exhausted. And then not even a week or so later they had another sibling. It was strange for the family dynamics to change but Lisa had persevered. She had to make up for her sister’s lack of engagement and pep. Lisa had to be the liquid sunshine for the group and it had been exhausting. “
They do look sad. I guess I understand why the Professors lessons have all been heavily focused on acceptance, apologies, and feelings. They’re trying to give everyone ‘closure’ as my Eomma would say. She’s a psychologist so she knows and uses all the big words for this...” Lisa just listened and put the words to use because she wanted to look SMARTER than everyone else.
A happy smile graced her lips when V squealed in excitement. She nodded. Her brother was pretty great. “
He’s awesome. Nice, a little cold, but warm and squishy like a marshmallow on the inside!” Speaking of marshmallows, she could go for some more s’mores like the ones they had in Muggle Studdies. Lisa’s eyes widened as V mentioned that Evan had spent the whole time with her on the train. SO THATS WHY SHE COULDNT FIND HIM. “
YOU’RE THE REASON THAT I COULDNT FIND HIM?!” she exclaimed with eyes as wide as saucers. She took in a deep breath before offering V a small smile. “
I’m glad he was with you. Sounds like you needed him. Are you two friends?” Hopefully she wouldn’t have to compete against V for her brother’s attention.
Lisa thought V’s words were rather a harsh depiction of her family. It sounded like the siblings didn’t get along and it sounded like V’s parents had favourites. Well..... She didn’t know what to say to it so she simply nodded. “
Yes. What game looks interesting to you?”
