Etta watched Elise turn red, and recognized that look in her eyes as she placed her hand on her cheek. The raven-haired student sighed inwardly and chuckled to herself. It seemed that Artemis may yet have another fan. Etta found it hilarious that one guy could win the favor almost of every girl in the school, and faintly detested the fact that she was one of the many. She doubted that many girls would pass Defense Against the Dark Arts this year, though it would easily be their favorite class.

"No problem," Etta shrugged, and then laughed a little. "Wow! You really didn't get into trouble? That's great! As for Snape, he probably detests the world for existing. I imagine he's quite furious at Artemis right now for getting the teaching job he wanted. Snape has been after the Defense Against the Dark Arts job for years, and now he's lost it to a former student!" She then smiled mischievously, and her green eyes danced merrily. "So, you were with Victor? I don't really know him because he's in a different year and a different house. What's he like?"

Elise finally managed to rip her eyes away from Artemis' form, and she glanced over to Victor, opening her lips to answer Etta's question. "Ah... well... He's really nice. Uhm... he's pretty quiet, I guess.. I dunno..." she began, scratching the back of her head. "He's pretty handsome.. too...", Elise finished, scratching her nose as the last of the students was sorted.

The headmaster then stood up and spoke for a moment... of course Elise wasn't listening. Suddenly the aroma of tons of different food filled the girl's noses and overwhealmed her senses. She turned around, removing her eyes from Victor to the plate before her. Only moments ago it had been completely empty, and was now filled, almost over the edges, with delicious food. The girl blinked and tried some of the food; it was delicious. Elise would've eaten more, but she was feeling... just not very hungry.

She pushed her plate a few inches away from her and leaned on her elbows, sighing slightly as she glanced over at Artemis, then at Victor.

Victor glanced up and turned to look back at Elise, he gave a slight jump up to notice her eye-contact with his. He then looked over at his partner, and saw that Elf was asleep amongst the cool floor. He gave a shrug as he knew then that he should be okay. He lifted himself from his cases and walked along the tables, coming up to the Ravenclaw table. The students gave off sudden gasps, and stares. Victor ignored them, as he kept his eye locked onto Elise as he moved down the aisle between the tables. He reached Elise with ease, the students standing aside from him, almost in fear to his presence.

He stopped behind her, but off to one of her sides. He looked to the others that sat before him. He became uncomfortable and nervous, for he wasn't really strong and would get shy when it came to being around alot of people. He looked down to the girl, and asked of her, "How you doing?" His voice was quiet, but audible enough for her to hear. Feeling somewhat pressured by the other students around.

Elise jumped when she heard a deep voice speak to her. She turned round, her spiral pupils slowly rising to meet Victor's single eye. With a weak smile she nodded. "Hey... I'm fine." she replied. Elise looked to the student beside her. He seemed to be afraid of her, and when she glared at him he squeaked, jumping from his chair quickly. Elise grinned sinisterly, gesturing her hand to the empty seat. "Well, sit down.." she chuckled.

Remembering that Victor hadn't had anything to eat, she pushed her full plate in Victor's direction. "Here, eat something. I'm fine..." she said, turning her face away from Victor's.

He looked to the student Elise gazed at, then back up to Elise to see she gritted her teeth. He then looked back to the student and jumped a bit, seeing as he wasn't there anymore. 'That's quite strange...' He thought to himself, now seeing Elise's 'persuasive' powers. When she gestured for him to take the chair, he nodded his head slightly to her, a smile spreading across his face as he spoke out to her in a cheerful tone, "Thank you."

When he sat himself down, and pulled the chair up to the table, he was met with a plate loaded with food in his face. He heard Elise tell him to take the food. He wasn't hungry, he knew he wasn't, but then he heard his stomach growl. He was hungry, but in his mind he wasn't. Before he grasped a utensil in his hand, he looked over to Elise, seeing that her face was turned away and asked, "You sure you don't want this...?" His head tilted over, the eyebrow over his only eye cocked up in a display of wonder as he began to see her beauty shine from her face again.

Her face still turned slightly from his, Elise nodded. "Y-yeah... I'm .. sure..." she mumbled, fumbling with the right words to say. She turned back to face the table and put her hands in her lap as she watched Victor eat. The girl mentally berated herself when she felt a smile cross her face. Elise lowered her eyes, struggling to keep from making eye contact with him.

"So.. uhm..." she began, her words sounding slightly shakey, "... does it taste good?" Elise had a few talents, and starting up and keeping a decent conversation was not among them. Embarassed, she pulled a silver locket from her shirt and held it in her delicate hand. Her azure eyes gazed at it delicately, her golden hair falling from her shoulders to dangle beside her soft cheeks.

Eating the rations before him in a slowed haste, he glanced over to see Elise's nervous movements and actions. He then glanced down at her hand, and saw that she had hold of a locket. He swallowed whatever food was in his mouth and set the utensil down. The locket she had reminded him much of his own. 'Maybe she's just like me...?' Thinking to himself, he came up with this thought. Though he remembered that her parents were alive, and his were gone. Maybe she just had minor problems with them...

He nodded to her questioning, then replied back, "It is good..." He then licked his lips, then questioned back, trying to keep up the conversation as good as he can, "But why aren't you eating? I know you are hungry, after all, I haven't seen you eat one thing since we got on the train..." He knew for a fact she was hungry. Seemingly full enough to himself, he pushed the plate in front of her. He had left more than enough on the plate for her. Since he trained physically for six years, food wasn't really needed much as a source of energy. He was efficient that way.

He glanced from her locket back up to her, bringing up one of his hands to brush away his hair from his jade eye, the movement causing his locket to fall loose from his vest as well. He then rested his head into his hand, his elbow propped up against the table as he gazed what seemed to be a lustful look at her beauty.

Elise's steel blue eyes slowly made their way to her left to gaze upon the food Victor placed before her once more. It was true; Elise WAS quite hungry.In an attempt to conceal the full extent of her hunger, she pretended to merely pick at the food lightly, but ate large portions of food when she finally brought the fork to her mouth. She gulped down the food and smiled warmly, saying 'Thanks..' before she began eating again.

When the girl had eaten her fill, she pushed the plate away and leaned her elbows on the table. She felt slightly awkward and embarassed when she turned to see Victor looking at her intently. Her face felt warm and she turned her face slightly to the side, her soft hair falling to protect her it. "Wh... is there something on my face..?" she asked. Those pale blue eyes rose once more to meet with Victor's single, jade one. The locket around her neck bounced against her bosom when she turned to face him once more, gleaming in the bright candle light of the room.

Food! Etta ate with vigor. She may be small but she could tuck in a surprising amount of food. Her plate cleared quickly, and Etta piled seconds on her plate.

Etta was startled when Victor came up behind them; he almost seemed to Apparate, but of cousre, that was quite impossible. She watched the scene unfold beside her through the corner of her eye as she engaged Dizzy in pointless conversation, and continued to eat. She decided it would be best to leave Elise and Victor undisturbed for a moment.

It was quite obvious that Victor adored Elise. One could easily tell by the look in his eye, the tone of voice, and how unsure he seemed around her. Elise seemed to be warming up to him as well. She seemed quite nervous, and unusually sweet.

They're one, big, cute mess! she thought to herself. I'm never going to fall in love. It seems to be more trouble than its worth.

Elise really knows how to pick them, she thought to herself. She had to admit that Victor was pretty good looking, even if he was missing an eye. This is too cute, her eye twinkled with delight as they shared the same plate. A Muggle song, which seemed to fit the moment, echoed in her head. "Some enchanted evening, you may see a stranger, you may see a stranger across a crowded room. And somehow you know, you know even then that somewhere you'll see her again and again..." she caught herself humming the tune of the song and laughed a little.

A warm smile crept across Victor's face, he leaned over to Elise, and whispered in her ear, his voice was low and not even audible to the other student's ears. His voice stammered from his nervousness, but he decided to tell the truth to Elise about what he saw. "Err... I see a whole lot of 'pretty' on your face..." He then quickly sat himself straight again, looking to the table and crossing his arms in a display of discomfort. He was uncomfortable with the actions he just took, and the words he just said. He thought to himself a moment about it, then let it drop, letting whatever he said take time to affect Elise, and hoping for a good outcome. Hoping he won't get clobbered in the face or anything.

He brought up a hand to brush away his jet black hair from his eye again. He was becoming nervous, so he grabbed the nearest goblet he saw and took a drink. Setting the metallic cup back onto the table, then looking away from Elise as he studied the rest of the student's at the table. Some kept staring holes into him, like he was some freak. It was the eye, he could tell. Children's curiousity arouses about that way when they see something 'out of place'.

Elise, who had been drinking from a goblet at the time of his comment, coughed and spurt the drink from her mouth. The student across from her expressed his 'happiness' with his little shower, but said nothing due to the fact of who it had been from. "Wh... what the hell?!" she said, her face burning from embarassment. "D-don't say things like that.... don't lie to me. And... augh..." she tried to speak, but was too flustered. Elise's delicate hands wrung the napkin in her lap, and her cheeks were bright red.

Once more Elise used her long hair as a shield and turned away, her back to Victor slightly. Why is he saying things like that.... it feels like my face is burning... Elise wondered to herself, putting her hands on her face.

Her second comment seemed to penetrate his outer layer, or rather, 'shield' of emotion. He hated lies, and couldn't stand them. Nor could he bare to tell one. He spoke out to her in a dominant tone, backing up his words with honesty. "I never tell a lie." He then cocked his head to one side, and began to think. 'I said the wrong thing, she hates me now. You better get going, before you make a fool of yourself.'

To this, he brought his arms up as if he were to leave. Though curiousity settled in, he wondered if she actually did like what he said. Her hair was indeed in her face, and he couldn't tell what her reaction was, other than the spray from her mouth she gave off like a garden sprinkler.

He slowly over to her again, he brought up his hand, and with his finger tips, he slowly and nimbly brushed aside her hair to see her cheek. It was a strawberry red. She must be either really flattered, or really embarassed of Victor being there.

Elise felt her bangs move suddenly, and turned her head quickly. Great, now he can see my face, and how much it resembles a tomato right now... she groaned, mentally. "Well.. I mean... I know you weren't... what I meant... augh.. nevermind..." she finished with a groan, putting her hands over her face once more.

When the red in her face had finally subsided to a light pink, she removed her hands and pushed her hair behind her left ear softly. "But... even.. even still..", she began, picking up the locket once more and looking at it momentarily, before turning her cerulean gaze to Victor, "...even still, I'm not pretty.." she said, frowning, her face still slightly pink.

Victor saw beauty in a complexed way. It wasn't always about how the person looked, but the way the person acted. Elise was very beautiful in looks indeed, and from what he knew of her personally, he was taking a liking to it. He was frustrated, and didn't know what to say about her weak tone.

He leaned over once again, and spoke to her in a tone that was flooded with truth. When it came to letting people know what he meant, he could word it and tone it masterfully. "Don't say such things, you are too, and you know it." He paused a moment, taking to leaning back in his chair once again, he uncrossed his arms and and set them in his lap. He then spoke out to her in a slightly more audible tone, "Besides, even if you don't think it, I do." He let his warm smile then become a grin, a small dimple becoming exposed at the edge of his mouth. A somewhat charming smile.

Her face became red hot once more and she turned to him, completely flustered. "W-well... YOU shouldn't be saying things like that! You know it, too!!!" she almost shouted, drawing the attention of several tables. However when she looked over at them they all jumped, realizing who it was, and turned around, going back to their dinners. Her azure eyes met Victor's jade one, and she leaned foward, her face mere inches from his.

"Don't make me start saying things about how handsome you are.." she whispered alluringly. Hoping to have effected him in a similar way to what he had done to her, she grinned slyly and watched his face, still inches away.
