Lisa turned her gaze to her brother before resting her elbow on the table and her chin on her hand. “Really? So a non event? A booooooorrrrriiinnggg train ride minus the part of meeting a cool Gryffindor?” she offered a with a raised eyebrow and wry smile. She was briefly jealous of Evan’s calm train ride… why couldn’t hers been just as boring? “Hardly boring… it was eventful… I spent it with Atlas. We talked books and Daniel and V getting along… which I suppose is nice… Stewie and I watched clouds… and then Jasper bought mesnacks.”

She chuckled at Sammy’s reference of housemate. It was their inside joke. She gasped, overacting a little when he accused her of getting into trouble. “ME? Trouble? Ha. I’m an angel, my dearest housemate.” She drew the halo a few centimeters above her head and smiled innocently at him. “My summer was good. Hung out with friends and went to theatre camp. How was your summer?”

“Only pretty great, Ig??” Lisa wiggled her eyebrows at pretty great. There were a number of combinations on what that could mean. “That’s good… Can you pass the water after your done?” she asked before thinking of her own answer to Ig. Her summer had been fun too. “It was nice yeah.. theatre camp, friends… and staying out of trouble.” She returned her gaze to Sammy Summers just in case he’d tease her again. Heh.

“But they must sound nice when you walk in them….” she mentioned to Ruiari trying to imagine what spurs on wood sounded like. Perhaps an interesting sound. She wanted a pair of sparkly light pink ones. Ash joined them and Lisa flashed her a smile. “Hi Ash! Good summer?” she called out to the older girl that had joined them and then listened to the interaction between Ash and the two newer students. Ooof… that was …. Uncalled for to be so blunt.

She offered a warm smile to Sirius. Ah so he was a third year too? His quietness had made her wonder if he was going to be a first or second year… They were generally nervous. “Nice to meet you, Sirius. I’m a third year too!” Yay! New year friend… she wondered if he’d get along with the other kids in their year. He seemed rather quiet but it was understandable to be quiet around all these strangers… And then another girl joined Sirius whom Lisa assumed was some sort of relative. She gave a wave, watching the two siblings interact. They were quiet the pair.. “Welcome to Ravenclaw!”

Big wave to Cooper and mini-Cooper! “Hi! Welcome to Ravenclaw, Mercer. I like exploding Snap. We should play sometime!” wow! Their table was popping…. she glanced down the table, looking for a particular older Year only to have to remind herself that Misa wasn’t here anymore. She missed her….She then spotted Lia and Lisa turned her gaze briefly to Evan to see what his reaction was. He had always wondered if her brother had a crush on her because Lia was pretty but figured that they were just friends. “Hi Lia!! Good summer?” she asked and then noticed a face from Diagon Alley.

Wait… was that Nerina?? “NERINA! Hi!” big smile when she saw the older girl. “YOU’RE A RAVENCLAW TOO! I’m happy!” After their meeting at Malkins, she couldn’t wait to get some more stylish tips from the older girl.

She did notice the younger year (hooded boy) that was quiet. Tempted, she was to say hi but decided to let him have his moment. Maybe it was all too overwhelming?
