[Tavros raises his eyebrow, caught off guard by her reaction.]

Oh, uh... You're welcome, but... You didn't have to, uh, put it away! I'm sorry that I interrupted you!

[remembertheroses]

[She quickly shook her head.]

N-no. You don't have to say sorry. My drawing is not very good; that's why I'm keeping it.

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

...I think that, it's the opposite of not very good.

[remembertheroses]

...thank you.

[She finally offered him a tiny, shy smile. All this attention from people, just because she could draw.]

Are you going to Hogwarts? What is your name?

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

You're welcome! And, uh, my name is Tavros... I'm definitely going to be, going to Hogwarts. Will you, too?

[remembertheroses]

Yes. I am a first year.

What house are you in? Is it a good house? Which house should I go to, Tavros?

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

Uhh...

[He looks thoughtful for a few moments, eyebrows scrunched up in concentration.]

Well... The sortinghat picks your house, so... That isn't a question that, can be answered by me. But... I'm in Gryffindor, and... Uh, it's definitely the best house, I think. I couldn't believe that, it picked Gryffindor for me. But it, uh, definitely made me feel very happy.

[remembertheroses]

Gri-fin-dor.

[It's a slightly difficult word for her to pronounce, but she managed, albeit slowly.]

Why is it the best house? What if I don't get into it? Are the other houses not so good?

[bluhbluhhugestairs]

[These questions aren't easy for him to answer, since... But after a little stammering, he manages to start talking.]

Gryffindor is, uh... The bravest house! Everyone in it has, lots of confidence and self esteem, and all that, kind of good thing. But the other houses, are definitely not really that bad. I think maybe, uh, Slytherin is... kind of bad, probably, but that's because people say it is. Hufflepuff is, pretty cool! And... Uh, well. Ravenclaw is made for, really smart people, so that's cool too.

But I definitely think Gryffindor, uh, is the best. But it's okay if you don't, make it there. Because like I said, the other ones are great!

[remembertheroses]

[Ib frowned, worried now for her future house despite what Tavros said. What if she ended up in Slytherin then? Would people not like her? Would she become bad? Oggie was in Hufflepuff and he seemed like a pretty nice guy though, so maybe Hufflepuff was ok.

But she'd still like to be in the nicest house.]
