The Main Hall. A place that was becoming increasingly popular as the days wore on. The fact that there was the Goblet Of Fire in the Great Hall only increased the Main Hall's popularity. Students would congregate in the hall and talk about the Goblet and how they put their name in and saying they had a good feeling about it.
Wearing her Beauxbaton uniform, Eleanor stood in the Main Hall. She was planning to meet up with her friend Lesse soon. A few days ago Eleanor had put her name into the Goblet and was getting increasingly nervous. Not only nervous if her name would be picked, but also nervous that her name would not be picked. There were quite a few of the incredible students from Beauxbaton putting their names in, and that meant less of a chance for Eleanor.
Fiddling with the hem of her uniform dress, she looked around. Not that she minded standing alone, it was just the fact that she had been standing for about ten minutes now with no Lesse in sight. Putting her hands by her side as a group of Hogwarts students walked past, she watched them with the same interest that they showed her. The group of girls that had past seemed quite interested in Beauxbaton students.
Once they were gone, she slouched her shoulders only slightly and leaned against the wall. Her hat was on, though she was sure she should probably take it off. Lifting her hands to her head, she continued to look around for Lesse. Eleanor stood up straight again as another group of students walked past her.

((I like it...I just feel brain-dead now. D=))
The raindrops fell gently upon her face, and Lesse giggled in childish delight, leaping from one foot to the other. She was enjoying herself as she focused on dodging every raindrop, a task that was impossible to almost anyone—if they weren’t micro sized, that is. Her train of thought had been lost the second she had glanced out the window at the gentle drizzling. Though there was an uncomfortable awareness of the glances she was being sent, Lesse’s eyes were closed, not wishing to see them. After all, she was enjoying herself. The light blue uniform that she was wearing was rather summer-like, which probably increased the looks sent toward her.
There was a mutter of ”Sorry!” as someone ran past her, huddling over some papers, Lesse; still dazed at what happened, merely nodding blankly in their direction and stopped her jumping. It wasn’t that wild, just some squealing and laughing as she moved herself from one place to another. She had stopped though, and it felt as though she was missing something. Why was she here again? Only seconds later was when she remembered. She wasn’t supposed to be outside! Her hair—now soaked flew behind her as Lesse raced to the main hall, remembering that she and Eleanor had planned to meet there.
It must have been a weird sight, watching a BeauxBatons girl, fairly old, run through the halls. Lesse had come to a stop at the doorway, in which she had tried standing on the tips of her toes to catch sight of her friend. Whether or not she did, Lesse couldn’t be sure as she began to walk to the place they planned, brushing water off her robes. As a familiar face was spotted, Lesse’s pace increased as she said loudly, ”Hey! Eleanor!” and stopped within steps of the other girl.

It was annoying that every time she started to relax, another group of Hogwarts students would appear and be watching her. The troubles of being from Beauxbaton Academy. Eleanor said as she kept her back straight and head high, even after the groups had past. There was a huge crowd mulling around, but there were only points every once and a while where a spot of light blue, or a spot of red and furs would be seen.
Seeing Lesse, she almost fainted from relief right there on the floor in the middle of everyone. "'Allo Lesse!" Eleanor said, moving away from the wall and towards Lesse. Being a Beauxbaton, usually wherever one of them walked a path would clear. And though it was small, there was a small path for her to get through to get to Lesse. With a smile on her face, she grabbed onto her friend's hand as she got close enough.
"'Ow about vee find a place by zee wall? It iz quite clearer over zere, and less traffic to worry about." Eleanor said, with another smile and starting to lead Lesse over to the wall. So her friend was late, at least she had arrived. There had been plenty of times that other girls at Beauxbaton had forgotten to even come to meet her, which was depressing every time, though she never paid it much attention anymore. Why waste effort on the past when there was the TriWizard Tournament coming up?
"Lesse! Aren't you excited about the Tournament?" She asked, grinning. As they approached the wall, she slowed down. It was quieter by the wall, but only slightly. Seeing as there was a large crowd it was nearly impossible to hear someone a foot away, hence why Eleanor stood next to Lesse and grinned. "'Ave you signed up yet?"

It was a relief that she was not mistaken. It would have been too embarrassing to mistake another for Eleanor. As her voice brought some attention to herself, a few separate crowds moved apart, giving her just enough room to squeeze through, nodding at any random face. Her wet hair was tossed into all different directions and more then once Lesse had to pick up an arm to move the strands away from her eyes or mouth. There was a annoyed gasp as her friend snatched her by the arm, nearly falling as Lesse felt herself being dragged, and took a step/leap to stop staggering. ”Seriously Eleanor!” She exclaimed, not finding any other words to say at the moment.
It took her a while to actually hear her friend’s words, and Lesse, getting her hand free from Eleanor’s grip, half walked, half ran to follow her. She chuckled and rolled her eyes, ”Yea, but we get an inside path through the traffic, we take one step forward and I could swear all of them stop in their steps and move out of the way.” There was a slightly irritated note to her tone, but it was mostly filled with pleased amusement. Lesse could make out a few startled first years as they heard her words move on quickly, nudging their friends. The wall wasn’t much either, as she glanced at it; some other people were also against it, trying to huddle through the crazed crowd.
As Eleanor began talking, Lesse inadvertently groaned, ”I was hoping to forget that.” She said good-naturally, putting on a show. Her head moved closer to hear the other’s next words, and Lesse nodded. ”I’m frightened of actually winning, but I’ll really die if I don’t.” She chuckled softly, ”Didn’t you see me put in my name? I almost fainted!"

"Eet iz nice to 'ave a pazway where ever we want to go, but eet iz so loud in zee middle of a crowd." Eleanor whined slightly, mostly in a joking voice. Giving a small laugh, she looked around as the conversation became dull for a moment. There seemed to be more students now than there had been only moments before. It amazed Eleanor how many people on hall could fit without bursting at the seams. How large was this hall when there was no one in it? She would have to check that later on. Right now she was talking with Lesse.
"Oh, you 'alf make me 'ope I don't get eet so you can. But eet would kill me to not be picked, over anyone, no offense Lesse. Honest, I juzt want to win so bad." Eleanor said, a little antsy to learn the outcome of the Goblet. It was a toss up between all the people who had applied, at least that was Eleanor's opinion. A choice between Lesse, and Eleanor, and Amelia was going to be a hard choice as it was, and what about with all those other Beauxbaton girls she didn't know applying?
Shaking the thought off some, she shook her head. "I did not see you. A few girls were talking to me and I didn't get a chance to see anyone else put zeir namez in." Sighing some, she thought of the Hogwarts girls who wished to be the Beauxbaton girls. "I do not see what people find so appealing about uz. Bezides zee fact zat we are foreign."

Lesse chuckled and glanced away, only shrugging lightly at Eleanor’s comment. ”It’s cool though,” She said, turning to her friend, ”Being treated like celebrities.” There was a hint of a smile upon her face, as she turned to face all the people that were either staring at them, or talking among themselves. Yet it annoyed the girl, they were p e o p l e, and she hated when people looked at her simply because she was different. Shifting around uncomfortably, moving form one foot to the other, Lesse gave a small laugh, ”I know what you mean. I just hate waiting! And more so,” Her eyes glittered, ”Losing.” Lesse nodded in agreement, ”I wonder how it picks the name though, what does it really do? Chooses at random, and how?”
The girl groaned in dismay, making a scene as she sulked down to sit on the floor. The look on her face was exhausted as she looked up to glare at Eleanor, ”I’ll root for you.” She said, starting to smile, yet there was a sly tone to her voice as she added, ”If I don’t win first, that is.” In ended in a chuckle, as Lesse moved her hair out of her face, it always fell upon it, and though it gave her a more attractive look, it wasn’t exactly pleasant to walk around with hair in your eye. A sudden chill went down her back, and a feeling of depression cowered over her, Lesse’s look was thoughtful, somewhere lost, but seconds later she glanced up and laughed.
”Ah. How rude Eleanor. I saw you, but you didn’t see me!” Lesse chuckled and put on a pouting face, trying to act all sad and innocent. Her glance flickered with a sudden distaste at the first year that moved toward her, but upon spotting her face, he backed away and ran to his friends. Lesse rolled her eyes in amusement and laughed. She wasn’t going to hurt them! Nodding in agreement with her friends words, ”We’re new I suppose, but they all run away from us as though we’re planning to eat them.” There was a flicker of annoyance at the though, and Lesse shrugged it off casually. Her tone wasn’t like Eleanor’s; instead, it was a mix of all sorts of countries, making it have a very unique sound when she talked.
Now there was mischievous glow in her eye as Lesse chuckled and asked, laughing with amusement, ”So…meet anyone?” It was a teasing, curious tone, which really seemed to get a laugh out of anyone.

"Yes, I guezz you could say we are being treated like celebrities, but we are also treated like we are delicate little flowers zat cannot be touched." Eleanor was pure French. This was the only time she had been out of France ...to be quite honest. It was a good thing that her parents spoke English and French, which is where she had learned how to speak English, and it came in handy with being at Hogwarts and classes where the teacher spoke only mediocre French. "I do believe eet eez a kind of 'Zee Goblet knows all' type of zing." Thinking for a moment she said, "Perhaps eet 'as zis secret mechanism inside zat 'as a long process, and eez why eet takes so long."
Eleanor's hair was straight today, and falling down behind her back. There was a bit of hair over her shoulder and she started to fiddle with it as she looked at Lesse. Not one to sit on the ground with a group of people around, she continued to stand. "I will root for you az well." She then gave Lesse a wink and said, "Eef I don't win first." Giggling some, she stopped playing with her hair and let her hands drop to her sides. It annoyed her that she had a habit of playing with her hair, and wished she could break it.
"I am so sorry! Please forgive me Lesse!" Eleanor said, in a mock pleading tone and put her hands up in a pleading voice as she looked down at Lesse. "'Ow can I ever repay you?" Watching the poor first year old run away, she gave a small sigh. It wasn't only the fact that they thought that all Beauxbaton students were snobby girls, but the fact that the girls always give them evil looks. "Eet eez either zey zink we will eat zem, or we get zee stuck up boys zat zink we will fall in love wiz zem for all zeir stupid leetle tricks."
Laughing some, she looked at Lesse. "Do you mean anyone special?" She was beating around the bush some and it was a thing she did when she did have something to say. "'Ave you met anyone?"

Lesse grinned and turned her glance back at the Hogwarts Students, eyeing them with the same curious looks they were sending her, and then flashing an entire group a nasty smirk. She hated being stared at; it was rude—at first, and completely annoying. Hearing Eleanor’s words made her laugh, especially the last ones. ”Yes,” She said in mocking tone that was filled with bitter distaste and amusement, ”Oh my! If we touch the BeauxBatons, they might fall into pieces and break! Or, or!” Lesse had this fake look of excitement and fear about her as her voice rose higher, then lowered at her words, ”They, they, they might kill us!” The girl knew some people could hear her last words, and doubled into laughter. She was still laughing, and only got herself under control once Eleanor began talking again.
”I suppose, maybe it’s like the Hogwarts sorting hat?” Well, Lesse sure wasn’t planning to look like a fool in front of these Hogwarts Students. C.ocking her head to the side, she waited briefly before shaking her head in disagreement, ”I don’t thinks there’s any mechanizm in the Goblet, maybe it’s running with the Department of Mysteries magic,” Her voice got darker, muddled with sly teasing, ”Or with blood.” It was meant to sound creepy, and that was exactly how it did. Her hands pounded on her knees in unspent energy, and all of it seemed to turn to the rage that was driving her insane. These Hogwarts Wizards were gonna drive her insane!
Lesse laughed as she watched Eleanor play with her hair, reminding her of a cat she saw in Egypt once. It had leaped all over her head, and a flicker of memories passed her glance. It caused her to think about her own little pet, a small bluebird that had followed her from New Orleans. ”You better!” She said in a rather threatening, friendly tone, her eyes alight with laughter. Lesse laughed and shook her head, feeling pleased at her small circle of friends. Life was fine, but some things could have been improved, as having the Triwizard Tournament hosted at BeauxBatons instead of Hogwarts, for one.
Lesse began to look thoughtful, ”Well, I don’t know…” She said in mysterious tone, ”Hmm,” Eyes glittering with anticipation, ”Try your hand at breaking the Goblet?” She chuckled, knowing that Eleanor won’t take her seriously. The girl nodded, ”Heh. We’re aliens,” A dark glare was sent through the crowd, noticing some at the end of it staring at them ”Get away, get away!” She called out to them, moving her hands in a shooing fashion. ”Ha!” Lesse laughed harshly, ”If I fall in love with one of these Hogwarts freaks, muggles might as well start walking on their heads and learning magic.”
”No Eleanor, I meant the little boy that follows you and stuff love letters in your dorm.” Lesse said sarcastically, chuckling, ”Of course I mean someone special!” Lesse shook her head, ”I’ve got my eye on some Durmstang fellows, hopefully they won’t be all goggle-eyed when they see us.” There was a bitter note in her voice, which was taken over by that amused tone that Lesse always seemed to carry. ”Hey, Eleanor, have you seen El? My bluebird? I think he’s the one that tried to make a nest in your hair?”

Giving a small laugh, she nodded. "Yez, zey zink zat no matter what 'appens we will break or kill zem eef zey get near uz." Shaking her head some, she looked and saw a few Hogwarts students looking at them. Though Lesse gave them evil glares and horrible looks, Eleanor usually favored them with smiles. If they were spending, more wasting, their time looking at girls, then they should at least have a reason to look at them. As long as they weren't touching her or being rude and crude, she would be fine. "I don't see 'ow zey can zink we will kill zem. What 'ave we done to make zem zink zat?"
"I was joking about zee mechanisms Lesse." Eleanor laughed, shaking her head some. Thinking she gave a small nod. "Eet could very well be like zeir sorting 'at. Eet ees somezing zat ees important in zee magical world, so zat could be." When Lesse mentioned blood, Eleanor shuddered some. She never liked the idea of blood magic and the mentioning of it didn't help either. "Do not even mention zat please Lesse. Even eef your are joking. Eet makes me feel eecky."
Grinning she nodded at Lesse. "Of course I will root for you! Zere ees no one else I would root for! And eef zere ees, I would root for you boz." Smiling, she looked around at the students that were coming out of the Great Hall who put their names into the Goblet. A group of students bound over to the Durmstrang students exitin the Great Hall and bombarded them with questions. "Zose poor Durmstrang students."
"Perhaps zey will let me inspect eet eef I ask zem." Eleanor thought aloud as Lesse spoke of breaking the Goblet. "I would not break eet Lesse! Zere ees no way I would even try to do zat! Zere would never be anozer TriWizard Tournament." Looking up from Lesse, she saw a few students looking at her as she said that. "I zink zey zink I am going to sabotage zee Tournament." She then let a little giggle out as a group of boys walked past, they seemed to be walking rather cautiously around them.
Turning her attention back to her friend she laughed some. "I zink you may fall een love wiz a 'Ogwarts student. You never know who you will love." Winking at Lesse some, she laughed at Lesse's comment about a boy following her around. "Zee strange zing ees zat zat 'appens to every one of uz Beauxbaton girls." Sighing slightly, she then started to fiddle with her hair some. Deciding to tell her friend about the boy she met, she squatted down slightly, still staying poised.
"You 'ave you're eyes on a few Durmstrang boys? I'm sure zey will fall een love wiz you quickly." Grinning some, she then said, "I am sure zat you will find a way to get one of zem." Giving a smile she then thought for a moment. "I 'ave met a boy." Eleanor said, smiling some. "I was wandering zee halls a few nights ago. 'E ees from Durmstrang."
Blinking at the bird comment, she shook her head. "I 'ave not seen El since 'e tried to make a nest een my 'air. I've 'ad to wear caps sometimes when I sleep because 'e will come een and try to make a nest." Shaking her head some she shrugged. "I 'ave not seen 'im. Sorry Lesse."

Lesse simply nodded in furious agreement with Eleanor, sending an annoyed glare at all of them. Though the looks seemed to turn wary, as if they noticed she wasn’t gonna welcome them with smiles and kisses. The girl couldn’t get her friend on that matter, but it wasn’t that important anyway.
”Heh.” Lesse chuckled, ”Maybe because we’re so foreign.” She said, rolling her words at the last one sarcastically. Shrugging some, Lesse turned to watch the groups of people, and briefly wondered at their reaction if she dared give them a smile. Faint? Blink a dozen times and make sure they’re not going in sane? Maybe? It made her chuckle randomly at the thought. She was sitting crossed legged on the floor near Eleanor’s feet, her head resting against the wall as her fingers impatiently tapped against her knees. ”I need an I-pod.” Lesse started to complain, muttering as the song kept echoing in her head. Without knowing it, she began to hum it.
”Ah,” She muttered, partly not even paying attention to her friend’s words. ”I guess, I mean, sometimes all these mysteries just make me want to go out and explore.” There was a vacant, faraway look upon Lesse’s features as she said dreamily, ”Like I used too…” It trailed away, leaving a brief blank look in her eyes. Hearing Eleanor’s words made her struggle to her feet, pressing her fingers against the ground as she neatly picked herself up. ”Aww! Ellieanor!” The girl said in a slightly amused tone, giving her friend a hug. ”Eecky!” Lesse said, laughing, ”It sounds so young!” She exclaimed, then looked around, before asking, ”Ya know how to make a music spell? Or an I-pod one? This song is stuck in my head!” Lesse exclaimed dramatically before sliding down to the floor against, her knees pressed against her chest as her hands hugged them protectively.
Lesse grinned, ”Poor? I’d say hot!” she replied, laughing. The girl then shrugged, ”Oh?” She sad in mild surprise, ”Really? Who’s stopping you!” Lesse said in excitement, trying to push Eleanor toward the office. Seconds later there was a moped expression upon her, ”But Eleanor!” Lesse mockingly whined, putting on a pouting expression, ”You said anything.” She whined against, her eyes large and innocent. There was a lot of acting behind this girl. A master of disguise? Nah. A master of emotions? Yes.
Lesse burst out laughing, her head on her hands as she laughed. She ended with shaking her head, ”Crazy dorks.” The girl laughed. Then her eyes lit up with mock excitement, ”Maybe we should!” Lesse said in a hushed whisper, then laughed and rolled her eyes.
”Nope. Would not. No matter what.” Lesse was confused by her own agreement with the words, and shook her head. ”Heart, love?” She chuckled absent-mindly. ”How sweet Eleanor!” Lesse teased, grinning, ”So whose it?” ”Well of course, we’re so hot! They can’t resist us!” Lesse exclaimed, grinning. She wasn’t really one for in-depth relationships with anyone, flings were more her thing. Any personal attachment weren’t for girls like her. She traveled, she left when she wished. It was best not to drag anyone along.
Watching as Eleanor became more her eye-level, Lesse laughed in agreement. ”Well, I won’t blame them!” She exclaimed, then glared at the two girls that seemed to be inching over to them, hoping for some paragraphs of the conversation. ”Are you two dears looking for anyone?” Lesse said in a tone that meant business, then it was cool and collected, but there was a flash of hostilely in her eyes. There was a squeal from the younger one, and she ran off, the other (Astrum) seemed to glare at Lesse with simple curiosity and did not move. ”Shoo.” Lesse said, and turned back to Eleanor, slightly admiring the other girl who refused to move until her friend came and dragged her away.
As though the episode with the two Hogwarts Students never happened Lesse exclaimed boldly, ”I knew it!” Now there was simple curiosity as she asked, ”Who is it? What’s his name? When can I meet him? I have to give my blessing! It’s my duty!” Lesse rambled on, laughing all the while.
She shrugged, ”El’ll turn up sooner or later. He always does. I think he likes this school as much as I do.” Lesse commented with a knowing look and shrugged it off.

Giving a slight laugh at Lesse's foreign comment she nodded. "People do seem to try to aspire to foreign people. Zee only problem wiz zat ees zat zee foreign people get annoyed wiz all zee staring." Shaking her head in slight annoyance she looked at a group of people that seemed to be trying to find a way to come over and talk to them. "I wonder eef Durmstrang students 'ave zis same problem..." She wondered aloud.
"Only meesteries make you want to explore?" Eleanor asked Lesse, giving her an inquiring look. "I could 'ave sworn zat you always wandered about school looking for somezing to inspect or explore." Giggling slightly, she was then hugged by Lesse. "It's my accent. I didn't mean to pronounce eeky wrong." Because Eleanor did not own an iPod, she didn't know how to make one with a spell, but she did know a spell or two to make music. "I do know a spell to make music eef you want eet."
To her left, a small group of about four students was coming closer to her. Quickly turning to them, she gave them a smile and quietly told them to go if they didn't want to be scowled at. They left rather quickly, some looking thankful, some looking frightened.
"Hot?" For a minute, Eleanor was lost on what they were talking about, and then realized her friend was fawning over the looks of the Durmstrang students. "Oh, I guess so. I meant poor because zey are being smozered een questions by 'Ogwarts students." Startled at being pushed towards the office, she looked back at her friend. "What?"
Nodding her head some, she looked at Lesse. "Lesse, I zink zey would 'ave to get permission from many ozer people before I could examine eet. Eet ees not een zee soul possession of 'Ogwarts." Eleanor explained. "Eef eet did juzt belong to 'Ogwarts, I would 'ave asked by now." Pushing some hair behind her ears, she shrugged to Lesse and apologized. "Eef you can zink of a way to make zem allow me to examine eet, I will love you even more zan I already do. But, I do doubt zey will let uz near eet except to put our names in."
"Perhaps you will fall een love wiz a very geeky wizard 'ere." Letting out a loud laugh, she quickly covered her mouth as it got attention from a few nearby groups, including a group with a few Durmstrang students in it. "Yes, I zink zat ees what will 'appen Lesse."
Laughing some at the comment that they were all so hot an irresistible, she tried not to bring too much more attention to them. "I zink you are forgetting zose few girls from our Charms class back 'ome. You know zee ones. Zee ones wiz wiry 'air, big chunky glasses, and smelled 'orrible?" Giggling some, she tried not to get out of control. "And would always sit next to uz trying to get uz to 'elp zem?" In the end, they had helped them, but that was beside the point at the moment. "No one would be bozering zem."
"Did you 'ave to do zat?" Eleanor asked, looking at Lesse. "Not all of 'Ogwarts students are 'orrible. You do realize zis, right? We've done our own bit of snooping. Here and back at Beauxbaton." Shaking her head some, she just shrugged. "Oh well. I guess I will make friends wiz 'Ogwarts students on my own." Putting her hands behind her head, she smiled and looked at Lesse.
Laughing at her friends many questions, she fiddled with her hair some and said, "Well, 'is name is Scott. I don't know when you can meet 'im. I guess I can talk to 'im and find a time." Looking off into space for a moment, she then looked back at Lesse and smiled. "Blessing? You aren't going to scare 'im off are you? Or perhaps tell 'im zat you like 'im?" Some other 'friends' of Eleanor's had done that before, but she knew that Lesse wouldn't.
"Yes, you and El 'ave very much zee same sense of tastes. Eef you don't like somezing, 'e will 'ate eet as much, eef not worse." Giggling some she then nodded. "'E always manages to show up when you need 'im."
{{Do we want to get Simon to wander in here as Scott?}}

Lesse nodded, eyeing the others, ”I mean, I won’t mind if they come up to us and say Hi. I just hate being stared at!” She complained loudly, noticing as some face briefly turned and away. There was a chuckle from her as the girl rested her head against the wall. Grinning, she nodded ”They should! Why must all of them look so good?” Lesse said the note of amusement in her voice as she watched the groups move on. Lesse sent a mockingly annoyed look at Eleanor’s comment, ”Oh shut up.” She said—looking amused. She then chuckled, grinning, ”It makes me laugh. It sounds so little and young.”
Lesse then shrugged, but her eyes lit up, ”You do?! Can you try it? Or will you be arrested for disturbing the peace?” Her glance flickered at the others, saying that if a spell of music did occur, everyone else would hear it. Wouldn’t they? Moaning, Lesse laughed and nodded ”I know! I know! I feel like I’m being given a lecture by you, Eleanor.” She said, grinning. She then sighed, ”It’ll be cool though to…” Her voice trailed away on to have it pipe up, ”Maybe I could! But both of us, we could say that we want to inspect in for a project and to see how it works, and everything! I’m sure they won’t mind if they were telling us about it or watching us. And if we don’t break it.” Lesse was talking fast again, ranting and babbling on in excitement.
But Eleanor’s comment made her laugh again, ”Are you insane!? I’m annoyed with they look at me, and you’re saying I’ll fall in love with one?” She shook her head, ”Nah, I’ll stick with the Durmstang boys.” Lesse grinned.
”Oh yeah, those.” Lesse nodded in agreement, making a disgusted face at the picture. ”I remember, and they couldn’t eat right too! The food always got all over their faces.” She stuck her tongue out, and then glared at Eleanor, ”Great way to make me lose my lunch!” Lesse complained, laughing. ”Well, serves them right.”
Lesse sighed, ”I was wondering when you were going to comment on that. And yes I did.” Her voice was sterner now, yet she nodded, ”It’s the staring! If they said Hi and walked up, I wouldn’t mind as much.” Of course Lesse was making excuses, ”But still! We never stared as though our lives depend on it!”
”Ooh!” Lesse said, laughing, ”Scott, eh?” There was a spark of curiosity glittering in the girl’s eyes as she scanned the crowd. ”Yes Blessing. It’s my job.” She said knowing, the tone of amusement heard quite clearly. Lesse then laughed, shrugging, ”You never know about the scaring away…” Her voice trailed away in mysterious amusement, and she laughed.
Lesse nodded, ”I just wish I could see him pecking at the Hogwarts Students.” She said, chuckling. ”Hopefully he’ll be back at my Dorm tonight. Avent seen him for a few days now.”
((Perhaps we do? I won’t mind actually, it could be kinda fun. But only if you want to.))

"Ah, I will tell anyone who approaches zat zey must eizer approach and say 'ello or not come at all." Laughing some, she looked at a group who was staring at them. Waving to them, they looked at her stunned and then turned away quickly. "Eet ees near impossible to get zem to come over and say 'ello zough. Zey always run away, or turn away." Shaking her head lightly, she looked back at Lesse. It was amazing the difference between Hogwarts and Beauxbaton.
"Are you saying I sound like a four year old?" Eleanor asked, trying to sound appalled. It was hard to sound appalled as you were trying not to laugh. "I guess a pure French accent can do zat to some words."[/b] She was not going to deny that she sounded childish at times because it was true. Usually it wasn't as noticeable. But being in an English speaking country tended to make it extremely more noticeable.
Watching the Durmstrang boys leave, she searched the group for a moment and said, "Not all of zee Durmstrang boys are handsome." Looking to Lesse, she smiled some. "Zere are some cute 'Ogwarts boys ...eef you don't mind zat zey are as dumb as breecks." Giggling some, she looked around at the students loitering in the halls.
"Of course I will use zee spell for you. I don't zink any of zese people will mind eef we disturbe zee peace." Laughing some, she took her wand out from her robes and thought the spell in her head. Waving her wand, she then produced a small object that had a dial on it. "Eet ees not popular technology, but all you 'ave to do ees zink of zee music you want eet to play, and zen turn zee dial twice counterclockwise. To change zee volume, you turn zee dial clockwise."
Smiling some she looked at Lesse. "'Ow about eef tomorrow we go to zee 'Ead Master and ask 'im about eet? Eet won't hurt to ask 'im, right?" Shrugging some she added, "And you never know, 'e might say yes. And we will get fame and glory for figuring out 'ow eet works."
"All right, you just stay wiz your Durmstrang boys, but eef you fall in love wiz a 'Ogwarts student, do not blame me." Grinning, she then let out a small laugh. "Zough at zee moment I do like Durmstrang boys quite a beet more." Smiling at a group of Durmstrang boys who passed, she absent-mindedly looked back to Lesse. "Zough I believe you juzt like zem for zeir looks, no?" Winking at Lesse, she started to straighten out her skirt.
Thinking back about the girls, she smiled some. "Made you lose your lunch, right, but eet was so nice when zey were cultured. Eet took all year, but zey were pretty when we finished." Nodding some, she tried not to laugh at all the images of the girls being fawned over and the girls not knowing what to do at all in those cases. "Sweet girls zough. You can't deny zat."
"Of course, we were taught een school zat staring was rude, and apparently some of zese people did not 'ave zat lesson stick." Eleanor looked at a group of students that weren't paying any attention to them at all. It was a nice thing to see that they weren't the most interesting thing and that they apparently had something more interesting to talk about, and yet a little unnerving. It only peeked her curiosity that wouldn't be taken care of because the students walked away.
Laughing Ellie said, "You won't scare 'im away. You like Durmstrang boys." Covering her mouth as she continued to laugh, it took her a few moments to calm down. "Yes, 'is name ees Scott. And 'e ees very nice." Smiling, she squatted down next to Lesse again and smoothed out her uniform.
"I'm sure 'e will be back een your dorm tonight. 'E loves you too much to stay away a long time." Eleanor grinned and put a hand on Lesse's shoulder. "Of course 'e'll be back. I bet 'e's een your room right now."

((I’m so sorry for the crappiness of this post! I’m on a writers Block! D=))
Lesse laughed and looked pouty for a second, before whining in amusement, ”But it’s fun!” Her words stretching and the girl laughed and buried her face. Glancing up at her friend, she nodded in annoyed agreement. ”Once again,” Her voice got louder, ”We ARENT gonna kill you!” Lesse practically yelled at the crowd, before adding, ”So stop staring and for once come up and greet us!” Her tone was bitter and annoyed, but underneath it all, was a coat of amusement. Feeling uncomfortable in her crossed-legged position, Lesse sighed and stretched out her legs. ”Yes Ellieanor. I am.” There was an angelic face to match her words, and Lesse grinned innocently at her friend.
Nodding, she partly agreed, ”Or maybe you’re just that young on the inside!” Lesse teased playfully, grinning. Yet the girl was getting bored of simple sitting, or standing around. Talking with Eleanor was great, but she rather they talk and walk, that way she wouldn’t feel like running through the halls yelling like a buffoon. There was groan as Lesse struggled to get up to her feet, standing up to be face to face with her friend. This time though, she ignored the looks sent toward her. ”I guess.” She said, shrugging, her eyes following the group as they passed by, ”But I do mind.” The girl grinned briefly before sighing and leaning against the wall.
Lesse seemed to perk up at Eleanor’s agreement to the music spell, and stared in wonder at the machine her friend had in her hand a second later. Taking it from her, the girl moved it close to her face and c.ocked her head in puzzlement, turning it around. ”What is it? It looks…weird.” Lesse wasn’t one to care for the past. Carefully, as she was about to move the dial, Eleanor spoke up and she grinned. ”That’ll be great!” Lesse exclaimed, her voice rising in excitement. Nodding, she quickly agreed with her friend, ”True, true.” Eyes lit up, ”Perhaps we’ll learn how to make our own one!” It was just a suggestion, not a real one, but Lesse was in the moment. Then it came to her. The perfect lie! She had just said it. ”That’ll be our story, that we’re trying to create a mini Goblet that chooses names and everything!” Lesse grinned, ”Fame and Glory eh? If one of us wins, we’ll be getting it one way or another.”
Rolling her eyes, Lesse relaxed and leaned against the wall once again. ”Ah,” She said with a wink, ”I’ll have to talk to some first.” The girl chuckled, and glanced away. Lesse turned to Eleanor with her mocking offended look, ”Oh Ellieanor! How dare you!” Of course, her amusement was clear. She then shrugged, ”Pretty? Not that much, though they did look a reasonable amount better.” Lesse partly agreed, her mind showing images of before and after. There was a secretive look about her as she whispered ”You know that smell that they had? I think it was the ‘geek smell’.” Lesse nodded, as if trying to make her friend agree with her.
”Yes. While these stare at us as though we’re in a zoo!”
((*nods* I’ll be better then!))
