Serena asked her "So, what's your kitten like?" She had definitely heard something about a kitten...
"He's just a sweetheart, he usually sits on my shoulder, just like a parrot! He must have been a tightrope walker in a previous life I daresay!" Alice said smiling to the new person who had walked over.

" she paused to take a breath. " My eldest brother and I always used to hang out together, but he's in college now. Eli, my other older brother, is always gone with his.....friends." More like partners in crime, she thought" My little brother Ethan is basically my constant companion now. I hope he'll be okay, now that I'm gone." Emmy trailed off, now slighty depressed. "So, what's your family like?" she said, trying to cheer up a bit. It was her first day at Hogwarts after all!!
Alice smiled "Your family sounds absolutely interesting!" Alice smiled. "Well, my entire family is part of the Victorian Historical Society on Prince Edward Island, which is in Canada." She started, "My family lives as if we were a regular Victorian family I guess. My mother loves to do potions though, she keeps all of her stuff in the attic of our house. My father is nice, but quiet. In my family I tend to do most of the talking, I just talk and talk and talk and dad just smiles from under his handlebar mustache. Mother and I sew all fo our clothes, which is quite fun. I also read a lot, father reads to us int he evenings while we sit round the fire, him in his big wing back chair. mother in her rocking chair and I sit on the carpet right next to the fire with Percival, my kitten that I've mentioned, mothers Raven Hubert, and fathers rat Norrington. Surprisingly Norrington and Percival and Hubert all get along quite well." She said then smiled at Emerald once more.
"What do you like to do in your spare time? does your family have one of those... telephones? Or a gasoline car?" she asked interested.
