Continuing the Tour (Sam, Caleb, open)

[Lyra Newbury]

Sam was too new to Hogwarts to know that Lyra's attempts at 'wooing' her so-called brother were not for sexual purposes. Lyra just liked to see how people reacted when she played with them. And the professor was reacting much in the way Lyra had anticipated, aside from the very slow start. She had actually never played with such a dense man before, it was definitely interesting. And new.

Lyra noted Sam speaking in plurals. And with Sam's brother here, it was quite clear Sam had picked up another new friend. A great day for the transfer. "Who's we?" she asked as she followed the 'siblings' out of the shop. But her question was answered when Sam approached a boy.

[Ivan Kresimir]

Ivan had crouched down to play with the phoenix while Sam left him to babysit. Oddly the phoenix was nibbling at his hand and he was grinning at it. "Hey there Nibbles, your really cute you know that?" He looked up though when he realized Sam and come back and he shrugged looking at the bird. "I think he likes me." He didn't get up yet though, he wasn't in a hurry.

[Lyra Newbury]

"Well that makes one of us then," Lyra commented to the new boy. "Lyra Newbury," she said brightly, offering her hand. "And you are?" He was cute, as most everyone at Hogwarts was, but he seemed young. At least, younger than Lyra. Perhaps he was Sam's age, maybe a year younger.

[Samantha Montgomery]

"I'm sure he does like you." Sam smiled, "Ivan, this is Professor Renneau our Arithmancy teacher at Hogwarts, and Miss Lyra Newbury, my fellow Slytherin. Professor, Lyra, this is Ivan, he's in Ravenclaw Professor, like you were." she nodded with a brilliant smile for her brother as if she were proud of herself for making new friends, "And a fifth year on Ravenclaw's quidditch team to boot." she said as if she knew Lyra's question.

[Ivan Kresimir]

Ivan's smile dissipated back to his normal stony expression and he picked up the phoenix before handing it back to Sam. "Ivan Kresimir. You were in that class where we played volleyball right? Transfigurations? I think I remember you."

[Samantha Montgomery]

The bird pecked slightly at Sam's hair before she told him to stop and fed him another treat, "Nibbles...that's another name for him." she announced with a nod she wasn't sure yet what she would decide on. She left them to their chatter and let the introductions be made.

Caleb's frown at least seemed to disappear.

[Caleb Renneau]

Caleb was slightly mollified after introductions, the kid was in Ravenclaw after all, that counted for something in Caleb's book, besides Sam seemed so proud of herself so he couldn't be that angry with her, no not when she smiled like she was doing just then.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Ivan."

[Ivan Kresimir]

"Samantha said you are a professor, what do you teach? I haven't been to all my classes yet I just started yesterday and only had time for one for the day." He looked respectfully to Caleb. He usually respected those in authority above him. At least until they showed they should not have that authority. He could think of at least one of those already.

[Caleb Renneau]

"Arithmancy." he said melting into an easier temperment, the kid was respectful and in Ravenclaw and Sam seemed to like him, three pluses made it easier to be friendly, " Have you decided upon all your classes?" he asked, " Decided on Arithmancy perhaps?"

[Samantha Montgomery]

Samantha rolled her eyes, "Recruiting professor?" she asked shaking her head, "Don't mind him he thinks eveyrone should take his class." she smiled while teasing her brother and trying to create an easy mood.

[Ivan Kresimir]

"Well I was assigned some classes already, but I do still have time to change them still if I need to. I don't think I'm signed up for Arithmancy though. But I am thinking of dropping Astronomy for something. I don't know if I'd rather take History of Magic or something else, but I already know most of the History of Magic they teach here from my own studying that I might have an open period still." He had been thinking about changing it out but he had kept it since he didn't have any other real preference for anything yet.

[Samantha Montgomery]

Sam gave her brother a look as if to tell him not to give anymore recruiting speeches and nodded towards Ivan, "I think you'd do well in history though, just because it seems to fascinate you." that was her oppinion anyway but she trusted that Ivan would do what was best for him, "Well gang...shall we continue this shopping tour?"

[Ivan Kresimir]

Ivan stood there debating if he should join them or stay behind but he really didn't have anything better to do so he just nodded and waited for them to tell him where exactly the 'shopping tour' was headed.

[Samantha Montgomery]

"Well..." Sam said reading his question accurately, she looked around her, "Books, Pet, cauldron and supplies...is there anything else?" she asked looking around in the group." I've already a wand and Robes."

[Lyra Newbury]

Lyra was wondering if they shouldn't pick up the professor some brains while they were out. But of course she would not say anything of the sort. The joke would probably just go over the man's head anyway. She loosely considered Sam's question. "Well that depends Sam. Are you planning on making any more new friends here, because we have yet to visit the ice cream parlor."

[Samantha Montgomery]

"Ice cream before dinner Lyra? Scandalous." she teased, "I'm in." she nodded to both men and picked up her phoenix that was light as a feather before turning in the direction of the Ice cream parlor, maybe she would make a new friend there, and she would do it to if it Annoyed Lyra, yes she could be a wicked child at times.

[Caleb Renneau]

Caleb rolled his eyes at Sam and gave Ivan a look as if to say "Sisters, what can you do?" but then recalled that Ivan didn't know Sam was his sister and he sighed before nodding and turning to follow Sam, he paused however noticing that Ivan was carrying two cauldrons, "Is that one Miss Montgomery's?"

[Lyra Newbury]

Clearly the sarcasm in Lyra's words had gone straight over that pretty little head of Sam's. "No I was just-" But Sam was already on her way to the ice cream parlor, so she followed along as part of the motley crew the Sam was collecting. Professor Renneau was still putting on the charade that he was just a professor, but it could have looked like something more inappropriate to an outsider. "Professor?" she asked as they walked. "Would it be terribly out of line for me to ask your first name? You don't have to tell me if it's inappropriate. I was just thinking that if we were going to be spending any length of time together, it might be nice to know."

[Samantha Montgomery]

Samantha kept to her walking she hadn't had icecream in a long while and not with her brother in...well a very long while. She realized she was a bit ahead of the group and turned and waited for them, she wasn't in a hurry. Turning up to her brother she set her large eyes on him, "Cale, what's that flavor you got me last time?"

[Caleb Renneau]

Caleb turned to Lyra and was about to tell her that a student addressing a teacher with their first name was inappropriate for school when. . .

"Cale, what's that flavor you got me last time?"

He reddened slightly but Sam was different, she obviously knew his first name, and called him Cale for short it wasn't the same.

"Ginger Spice and Goblin Berry." he answered her.
