Summary: Lily stalks the common-commons in the hopes of meeting one of the foreign kids
Status: Complete

Yes, they had foreign students in the Gryffindor commons, but Lily didn't want to scare them all off the first night. Therefore, the obvious solution was to stalk the common-commons in the hopes of meeting some of the other houses' foreign students and scaring them first.

Or making friends, but she was fairly certain her over-enthusiasm would be somewhat off-putting, at least at first.

Bouncing herself down onto one of the couches, Lily tilted her head and gazed toward the door as if she could will it to open - and will the opener to be one of their visitors. With her luck, it'd probably be her brother or something.

Without even a book as pretense for studying, Lily sat, and waited.

Hans had been oh-so-intrigued by their arrival at the school. There were many new things to do and new faces to interact with. He believed the term for that here was "snogging". It sounded sort of off-putting to him. It rhymed with frog and dog.

Who would want to go dogging? It made little sense and much silliness.

Pushing all that to another day's topics, though, Hans had decided to make his way to the common-commons. Or whatever it was they were calling it. It would be an adventure in learning his way about the place. Putting the home school to less of a home turf advantage.

Hans wanted to be picked to win for his school, after all. Every little thing counted.

When he at last found his way, Hans stepped inside the common room and surveyed the place. Like elsewhere, the castle was too warm for his taste (he was wandering about the castle in what would amount to summer clothes normally).

There was a girl there sitting. He didn't think he knew her from any other meetings, but that could soon be solved.

"Vot is this for? For sitting? That is vot you are doing? And vith the vaiting?"

Direct. That was his approach to life.

Lily did not squeal, bounce in her seat, or clap, but it was a close thing on all three of those reactions. She was, however, grinning a bit idiotically, in a way that would surely make Jamie roll his eyes and laugh.

"It's a multi-house common room," she said. Lily made every effort to keep her voice slow enough that he could understand, but it was tough when she could get talking a mile a minute. "So it's for studying or talking to your mates or doing homework or reading or playing games. Whatever you feel like doing," she elaborated.

Wide brown eyes flicked over him and she wondered which one he was, if she'd talked to him in the journals at all. She was guessing Durmstrang from the accent, and she knew two of them were werewolves. Was this one of them? She had no way of knowing, and she thought it might be a good idea to introduce herself.

"I'm Lily. Lily Luna Potter." She stood up from the couch and thrust one hand out toward him, beaming.

	"I told them," Hans said, nearly preening. "I vos telling them that learning English best vould be vorth nothsing." Hans pushed himself to his feet and held out a hand to Lily should she be so inclined. "Vould it be being proper to ask for an tour? Perhaps ve could be finding Leif and the kitchens, yes?"

	Hans started, looking over at Lily in shock. "Beuxbatons?" He shook his head violently. "No, I vould think you vould have better taste! Durmstrang. Those vhich are there are the vons you vould be liking, yes?" He wasn't exactly sure why Beuxbatons was more the enemy than Hogwarts, but they were. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Vot vill be being the problem?" Hans asked, rolling his eyes. "Tris vill speak and haff many happy times. It is no problem. Ve vill haff the more fun, yes?" Hans stopped at the entry and looked to Lily, tilting his head slightly. "If you vill not be vanting to go in, should I be walking back to your room?" Cue the charming grin.

	Lily shook her head. "No. I can find it myself," she admitted. "So, I guess I'll see you." She offered him a lopsided smile. Sure, she did a lot of things that pushed rules and whatnot, but she really didn't know what the protocol was about invading other people's commons. She really didn't want to find out. "It was nice chatting with you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
