Moot point.
Her book! The eleven year-old would've gasped, but she kept entirely cool about it. "Sounds...," come to think of it, "...slightly dull, but interesting at the same time." True story. "My family goes way back...," she never finished the thought, she got distracted by the thought of having a Wisteria met Merlin himself. OH, THE EXCITEMENT!
Almost instantly, Lottie placed her bag on a sit and took a place next to it. The Pygmy Puff made her own way to the top of the bag, resting from the apparent long journey from... nowhere.
The smile was 'thanks' enough, yeah? "I met a boy on the Platform, by the way," smirk, "This will be his final year... he seemed smart, and was very polite." And almost-kissed her hand. There was a reason behind her story, "His name's Vickers, well, Vincenzo, but he goes by Vickers, do you know him?" time to know just how much Elliot knew of other Hogwartians.
She knew about Soapy, but that wouldn't be enough.
"How's Dani, by the way?" She was planning on writing to her as soon as she could.
Elliot eyed the girl, a little eye roll escaping her. Of course it was dull to Lottie..she as a CHILD.
"Well good. I'm pureblood, too. And my family goes way back as well. What's your last name again, Lottie?" she asked curiously. She raised an eyebrow at the..puff. Hahaha!
"You have a pygmy puff? Are you going to introduce us? Jeeze Lottie, where's your manners?" she joked, a smirk playing across her face. SHe glanced out the window, watching many of the parents on the platform saying goodbye. She longed to see hers. But she wouldn't say this aloud.
She turned back to the little Lottie. But she snorted..
."You met a boy? Lottie..he was a seventh year?" Smirksmirksmirk. She felt bad crushing the girl's little heart...but it was severely unlikely that a SEVENTH year would ...have a crush on Lottie. Which it sounded like Lottie had on the older boy...
Elliot thought about the boy's name..
"I know of him. never actually talked to him. Maybe you can introduce us, hmm?" she said politely. Vickers. Eh, she had heard him talk in class and stuff. "
Speaking of boys..." she began, then stopped, wanting Lottie to press for more. BECAUSE ELLIOT HAD A CRUSH. She guessed she could call it that.
And she would finally admit it to herself, too, that she DID like Ezzi.
"
Oh, Dani's fine," she sighed, missing her little sister already. "
She's off to Beauxbatons as we speak..." she was worried about her sister starting a foreign school..knowing only a handful of people...but Elliot had started only knowing a few people...Dani would be fine..."
You better write to her...she won't shut up about you, Lottie," she warned, giving the a warning eyebrow-raise.
