Siobhan heard familiar voices approaching, including the unmistakable drawl that could only be coming from a certain 'sweet Slytherin sister from across the Pond'. The warm, friendly greeting, both exuberant and plaintive, made Siobhan chuckle softly and then school her features into the Porcelain Mask of Perfect Propriety she was known to wear. She stepped into Desiree's welcoming embrace and hugged her affectionately as she said softly, "it's good to see you, Sweet Dee... Next summer I'm stealing you away from your frightful family and sharing my adventures with you."<br/>Being so close to Siobhan, both physically and as a long time friend, it's quite possible that Desiree might catch signs of the carnal excitement still coursing through the Prefect's body and mind. Siobhan's rose colored eyes had a certain alluringly hypnotic glow to themselves, her breathing was deliberately measures and her alabaster skin had an unaccustomed blush to it visible when the setting sunlight hit her just right. Also though there was nothing overtly sexual in the way Siobhan embraced Desiree there was a subtle charge to it, like a static charge picked up when crossing a bear skin rug in front of a fireplace but... Somehow...better...<br/><br/>A few moments later, after a quick peck on each of Desiree's cheeks, Siobhan leaned back from her friend and publicly sided with Desiree's detractors. "No, Captain Dee, you can't hex the Sorting Hat, that's what we dare dumb G'dores when we get bored..." she reminded Desiree in a tone that include the rest of those in their House in earahot. She dropped her tone and instead offered, "... But... Nothing's to stop someone from hexing the First Years into hearing a different House NAMED by the Hat then it speaks to them..." She giggled a bit at imagining the Chaos that would cause if done right.<br/><br/>Siobhan released Desiree from her embrace and gave her a quick smack on the rump. "Innovation, subtlety and effectiveness are our watchwords, m'lovelee. Never forget it," she admonished her dear Housemate. She offered Desiree her hand as she asked, "shall we sit together at dinner? Or are you off to your rooms first?"
