The handsome, older guy seemed to make up for the lack of conversation though. He complimented her name and even went on to flirt with her. That was flirting, right? Addy didn't have much experience in those situations, but she was sure it was a light flirt, "Uh...thanks. It's short for Adalheida. You can call me whichever you want."<br/><br/>"It's really not that simple though. Floo and Portkeys don't work as well over long distances. They can work, but it's hit or miss. It can be rather dangerous. An ocean is a long way to travel, even magically," she knew because she'd brought all that up to her parents before. They didn't care that she would only see them during holidays and summers and that it wouldn't be that difficult to find ways to travel for those short periods of time. They wanted her in Hogwarts and in London.<br/><br/><br/>"I'm sure my mom and dad have their own reasons for wanting me to come to Hogwarts," and she was sure all of them involved her would be girlfriend and that pagan group she'd been hanging out with. They were always terrified she would accidentally use real magic and out herself to the No-Maj. Getting an ocean distance between her and them was for the best, they felt. Getting an ocean between her and the thing they refused to discuss was their way of trying to put a stop to it. Her mother had been pettily happy when she came home one day and shouted that Sarah had broken up with her because she didn't want a long-distance relationship. She blamed her parents for it and they quietly accepted the blame, because they were thrilled with the outcome. It upset her, even now, that in a relationship like theirs, they couldn't manage to be accepting that their daughter might be attracted to women as well as men.<br/><br/>"Still trying to get excited about coming here. I was really looking forward to Ilvermorny. It's, uh, it's been a bit of a culture shock, I guess. What do you like about Hogwarts?" she asked Aaric. He seemed to be the only one of the four that wanted to talk and he was the only one who had prior experience at the school anyway, "Any tips? They get super upset with students who might bring in possibly invasive species?"
