<div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/8/86/Frchar.jpg)</div><strong>Character Name (PC):</strong>Jean-Paul Lesperance (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=193964.msg9473789#msg9473789)<br/><strong>Year/House:</strong>3rd year / Ombrelune<br/><strong>Relationship Status:</strong>Single<br/><strong>Wearing:</strong>Grey wizard robes, with a black bowtie.<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Carriage, Paris, France<br/><strong>Date:</strong>Sept. 1st<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Leonore<br/><br/><hr/><br/>"Oh yes, I'm sure sitting with someone I know would be much more entertaining than sitting alone. Athena doesn't make great conversation, unfortunately." he said. The raven then promptly jumped up with a flap of it's wings to his baggage and rested there, looking like she was taking a nap. "I have to insult her to get her to get off of me." Jean-Paul said jokingly, then responded on the comment of her owl, "Yes, I think your owl will have to grow a little more before she can carry real mail. But a few small letters here and there doesn't seem like it would be too bad." he said, watching the owl.<br/><br/>He returned his attention to its owner, though, as she spoke about Charms. "Well now that you're in your second year, you don't have to take Charms anymore I suppose." he said. "That must feel good, right? Of course, I'm happy to help if you would like to practice more. I don't think you can go the rest of your time here and avoid Charms, after all." he said, wondering how he would get someone else to do his service for him now.<br/><br/>He stopped wondering as she started talking about the secret passages. "Oh do let me know if you hear of any. I've learned a few new tricks, though, so I should be able to do better this year." He usually didn't talk about family much, but he wasn't really one for chitchat most of the time anyway. He didn't mind it, it just wasn't really something he thought of doing normally. "My holidays were just as always, spent some time with the family, my siblings visited as well, which was... nice." he said, choosing a diplomatic word to end that sentence. Really, he liked seeing his siblings, but they could be annoying at times, but that went with being the youngest child.<br/><br/>"Well I'm glad you were able to take the carriage from a<em>real</em>city." he said, with a small smirk. "My family has lived near Paris for as long as I know of. Where is your family, then, if not here?" he asked, returning the question.<br/><br/>He had just asked the question when another Ombrelune came by, it looked like a 4th year but Jean-Paul wasn't sure. He nodded a greeting to him since he seemed to be coming in their direction, but didn't say anything else otherwise. As he spoke to Leonore, he was distracted by something that he had left in his pocket from one of his uncles who had visited over the holidays. He pulled something wrapped out of his pocket, inspecting it in his hands for a little while.
