WHO: Usagi and whomever finds her.
TONE: Confused but very cheerful
RATING: G
WHEN: December 1st through 3rd
WHERE: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
WHAT: Usagi's woken up alone but not worried. In fact she's gone wondering.
NOTE: Usagi'll be wondering all over the place, so let me know where you've come across her.

After her initial tears at being scared about being alone. Usagi wipes her eyes and leaves the hufflepuff dorm, and waddles into the common room, looking around curiously before leaving to go look around the corridors until she finds herself out on the grounds where she's gotten into the garden and starts to pick some flowers.

Usagi has decided that her parents left her her while they've gone out to go shopping, it is nearly Christmas after all and they have to get presents for family on top of what Santa brings. So she's going to give momma flowers when they come get her.

Once she has the flowers she goes back into the castle to look around and see if there's anyone to play with while she's here.

Usagi stares at him for a second figuring out what he's saying.

"I. Am. Usagi."

She looks at the flowers then offers him one with a smile.

"=I picked them for my Momma, but you can have one="

She knew she shouldn't just speak to someone in Japanese, but she thinks he might get the idea of what she's saying maybe?

Nope, he doesn't understand. He's just going to stare at her. "Are you an alien?" Because that's obviously not English or German, and there's definitely no such thing as languages apart from that.

She stands there, still offering the flower. Tilting her head.

"Arian?"

She shakes her head then points at herself with the flower still in her hand.

"Usagi."

Because, yeah, she thought you were confusing her for someone else.

Even more staring. All of the staring.

Then, he understands and starts laughing. Once he calms down, he points to himself. "Gilbert."

She pouts when she realises she's being laughed at until he introduces himself. Then she smiles, and puts down her other flowers, then takes Gilbert's hand and puts the flower she offered him into it.

"Ha-ro Girubeeto"

She speaks slowly and deliberately to make sure she doesn't mess it up.

Oh.

Gosh! His face definitely isn't red or anything. That'd be so lame! But the flower is pretty, and the way Usagi says his name is kinda funny.

He tries speaking slowly, too. "Hi. Thank you for the flower."

She smiles more and nods at the thank you then points at the flower. The fact he's blushing is completely over her head.

"Hana."

She looks at him then back at the flower, hoping he'll figure out that's what she calls flowers.

Gilbert understands this game, too.

"Hana?" He's not sure if his pronunciation is correct, but he does his best to mimic her. He decides to go for his default German for his response though. If she can't understand him, it doesn't make a difference anyway. "Blume."

She beams at him for getting it right, then blinks. Then points to herself.

"Hana."

Then to Gilbert

"Buroomu? =You call it= Buroomu?"

He shakes his head. "Bu-lu-meh."

Explaining pronunciations is hard and no one understands.

"Bu-Ru-Mei!"

She bobs her head with each syllable. Her head bobbing that little bit harder on the last part. Smiling at him curious if she got it right this time.

He figures that's as close as she's going to get, so he nods. "Ja! Blume."
