Especially since, given the way that one boy was lounging on the chair, the visitors seemed pretty comfortable in their space already.

... oh well. It was a good thing he had her. Dragging Jake by the hand she went up to the foreign kid.

"Hello. I'm Anya Phillips." she greeted with a smile and an extended hand.

Jake allowed himself to be dragged. He tried not to look too annoyed as Anya looked very happy to introduce herself to the foreign guy. After a glance at his girlfriend, Jake turned to look at the guy he was apparently supposed to welcome to their common room.

"I'm Jake Keller," he introduced himself, doing his best to sound friendly and welcoming. "Welcome to Hogwarts, and to Gryffindor. Sort of. I'm one of the Prefects for Gryffindor House, so I'd be happy to help with anything if you need assistance." Not really. But it was a nice gesture, right?

Jake resisted the urge to look at Anya for approval. Was that acceptable?

He was aware of the hushed conversation between the older girl and boy who seemed to be quite close. He, however, wasn't staring or even looking that way. Whatever they were talking about might be personal. Instead, he watched the fireplace and listened to the fire cracking. It was relaxing which added up to his already relaxed posture.

But then he caught movement at the corner of his eye. He turned to see the other couple themselves. "'Ello," He replied smiling lopsidedly pushing himself off the armchair and standing straight. All six feet. "Nice to meet you, Anya, I am Sébastien Voclain," He introduced himself taking her hand in both his hands. He was friendly. Her hand was warm unlike his. He still hadn't got used to the weather and still felt cold most of the time.

Prefect then, explains the badge. The French boy nodded releasing Anya's hands, " Sébastien." He repeated in case Jake didn't catch his name the first time. "Merci, I weell keep zat een mind," And it would be interesting to know if the prefect was not saying that because his position implied so.
