So she just wouldn't think about it.

Which was far easier to do now, as she was distracted by how comfortable the Ravenclaw looked as she disturbed him. Or the adorable sound of Beelz purring after Allie had given kitten scratches. It was nice too the little cat was already familiar with her - though she attributed that to the fact she'd bought her plenty of treats and toys on the day Vasco had introduced her to his new pet. It was amusing too the cat didn't give her away, which she reminded herself to give her more treats for later.

It had been a toss up on if stretching out would have disturbed him either. From what he said of his sisters, she half assumed he might have just thought she was his twin here to bother him. But as she settled, his eyes opened as his head turned towards her and she was awarded one of his lazy smiles which she quickly returned. "Quite, thank you. You're a very comfortable footstool." She replied, a light teasing tone. She would have inquired if he was as well, but she was distracted by the sound of the compartment door opening again and an entering blonde asking if he knew where Vera was.

The twin. Which meant this must have been best friend and now sister's boyfriend. She leaned over slightly to observe him, her curly hair tied into a pony tail that flopped to the side as she did so. Noticing the confused look at her legs resting on top of Vasco's, she couldn't help the soft laugh. Amusement was clear in her expression as she looked towards her companion again. "Logan?" She asked, taking her guess on which of his Gryffindors this was.

Now see, that was just the thing.. Ve probably would've kicked his foot, or taken his headphones to let him know that she was there with him. While Vesper would've taken Beelz and then sat on him. This had been nothing at all like that. While Allie had placed her legs upon his, it had been done gently and quietly, So quietly in fact that he had actually had to adjust one of the headphones off of his ear so that he could hear her when she replied back to him. "So glad you think so." He laughed, about to say more when there was a voice that broke up their current conversation.

It was neither of his sisters but someone he knew equally as well. The best friend. And it came as no surprise that he wasn't looking for him anymore.. but his sister. Of course. An amused smile tugged at his lips with how quick Allie was to guess that the voice belonged to Logan. Ignoring the looks from the Gryffindor, Vasco nodded at his blonde companion, yes, she was current. "Not since we stepped onto the train. I wouldn't be surprised if she's already lounging around in one of the compartments."

Beelz took this moment while her human was rather comfortable to stand up on his chest and strrrrrrrreeeeeetchhhhhhhhh. Then she turned on her paws with the greatest sense of purpose and made her way over his lap and across Allie's legs right up onto her lap where she promptly laid down on the girls book. She was finished with that anyhow, yes?
Vasco's words almost didn't register in the blond's mind, considering he was still trying to put two and two together. He could assume what was going on easily, though the how and when was the great mystery. The tail end of his best friend was communicating did manage to get through to him.

"Helpful," the Gryffindor replied sarcastically, his eyes now focused on the Ravenclaw as he tossed a packet of jelly slugs at the boy's head. His gaze lingered on him for a moment, as if to say they needed to talk. Such a conversation would happen later, of course. There was a girlfriend he had to find, and he could see that Vasco was ... preoccupied. "Well, then I'll be —"

The intentions to depart and continue with his search (and then see what, if anything, Vera knew about this particular development) came to a halt when the blonde girl stated his name. "Logan? Yes, that would be me," he replied, a list of random names running through his mind that were not connecting with the face he was now looking at. "And you are? I'm sorry; Vas wasn't being much of a gentleman by not introducing us to each other."

It was then he noticed the kitten. "And who is this?"
