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? Quote:

"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?" Honestly, he had himself a deal. The only illusion she'd make to it would be the necessary breaks in any potential hang outs for her studying. She didn't really need good grades for her chosen career path, but Alouette preferred to be on the smart side in the hopefully unlikely event no one wanted to sponsor her or take her on as a jockey as part of their team. Plus, professional athletes only had so long that they were in their prime. She was being realistic on the point that she should have something lined up for when she had to retire too. And while the reserve would always welcome her, she wasn't really keen on living the rest of her life on the island. Sorry parents.
While the two boys spoke for a moment, Allie's brown eyes moved to the little kitten as she streeeetched before making her way over towards her lap instead. While she was not one to outwardly squeal, the kitten occasionally made her rethink that. Even if she was covering a book and keeping her from having any chance of reading it. Not that she really ever planned to anyways when Vas was far better company. Laughing softly, she raised her hand to give Beelz more head scratches. "Point taken." She said softly to the kitten, only wiggling the book gently out from under her to set it aside on top of her bag. That couldn't be comfortable for sleeping on, right?
Tuning back into the conversation, before Logan's attention had shifted to her, she offered a suggestion. "You could stay and send her a note about where you are. Magic will probably find her faster than you could." Was that showing a bit too much that since she'd turned 17 she was far too reliant on spells and charms? Probably. But it was useful. Picking up the kitten slightly, Allie removed her legs from Vasco's and put them both on the floor, making the compartment easier to come into if the Gryffindor chose to do so. "I've heard a lot about you." She said, eyes turning back to Vasco in amusement. "He's lucky he's easy to forgive then." She replied regarding the lack of introduction, though at least on her end it had not been needed. "I'm Alouette, or Allie." Eyes shifted back to Logan as she said her name, giving him a nod of a greeting as she did so. "Nice to finally meet you. Though I'm a little disappointed Vera wasn't here too." She'd of course heard a lot about the twin as well.
As for Beelz? The kitten wasn't hers, so she kept quiet on that question and instead just continued to pet the kitten.
