There was just something about Lily that was super calming, and Lilu didn't even bristle at the 'love', which if she was honest, would have made her bristle from almost anyone else. Maybe it was because there was no history to have to overcome. Something she'd have to give thought to at a later date. Right now, she mostly wanted to enjoy the other woman's company and see if they could build a relationship of some sort.
"I was so excited to meet the giant squid that I tried to jump into the lake on the boat ride the first year. Hagrid had to catch me."

He's basically immortal, so I hope he's managed to thrive while we were...gone."
