Well it looks like this going so well right now, if anything I have a great talent for getting people to be as silent as possible. If one thing was for sure he would try this new skill on Harry when this was all over and see if it works, after all he was going to get him back for this horrid blue uniform he had to wear. He didn't even look like he was a student going to school, he looked like a bloody sissy boy who dressed in female uniforms to confirm just that much. Sebastian kept glancing at Lystra waiting for an answer, he didn't have much choice but keep pressing this small talk bull. If he kept eye contact then perhaps she would relent and finally start talking to him. It was a rather ineffective tactic that relentless men used to get uninterested woman to talk to them, so what the hell he might as well give it a shot now. Who the hell was he kidding?! That stupid crap never worked, all those guys at the bars were just desperate idiots trying to get lucky, why would any self respecting person fall for something so dumb.

[b][i][color=skyblue]"Well Roland, now that you've broken the silence, I suppose I have no choice but to humor you, correct?"[/color][/i][/b]

Sebastian nearly went wide eyed when Lystra had broken the silence and actually talked to him, he couldn't believe it, had the stupid bar tactic actually worked. Shit... he was going to have to observe those guys some more, maybe there truly was something he could learn from a bunch of boorish drunk guys.

[b][i][color=skyblue]"The name's Lystra. Lystra Scamander. It's a pleasure to... meet you."[/color][/i][/b]

Sebastian definitively caught how uninterested she was in talking to him, this was definitely going to be harder then Harry had let on. When he had said she was a loner too, he had failed to mention that she was the exact same type of loner Sebastian himself was. Thats not exactly the kind of person you approach for small talk. Blasted... maybe he could just leave the train car now and put and end to the charade now while he still had some sort of dignity left.

[b][i][color=skyblue]"I don't think you want to know my opinion of the school. Subjectively, I think it's full of a bunch of idiots, but then again, that's every school. Most people would say it's a nice place however. The teachers are capable, the students are tolerable, and the food is good. There are a lot of different activities and clubs to join. Personally I enjoy those relating to the arts and sciences. Those tend to be less social and more hands on learning, which I like. I'm sure you'll find a place to fit in."[/color][/i][/b]

Sebastian raised his eye brows slightly, you know ironically they were a lot a like at least in their opinions of company and Hogwarts, however the part where he would find a place to fit in... yeahhh that was unlikely to ever be reality. Not while he was dressed like a blueberry you put on top of a damn iced cake. But either way he got her talking so that was something, now he just had to keep it going, how her question to him silenced him:

[b][i][color=skyblue]"If I may ask, what kinds of things interest you?"[/color][/i][/b]

Sebastian smiled slightly at her question and then looked away subtly not really knowing how to answer that, was he suppose to make up some crap that Roland Fleur would say or was he suppose to talk about himself as Roland? Although... this was a chance to maybe lay some common ground between them, from what Sebastian had been told she was highly interested in Transfiguration. In fact she was probably among the top ranked witches in the subject alone. Sebastian looked back with a pleasant look on his face an spoke:

[b][color=silver]"Oh me? I have a wide range of interests I am what you might call a jack of all traits as the muggles would put it. Ranging from Potions and Astronomy to Care of magical creatures and maybe some DADA, and of course one of my top subjects is transfiguration, that is very well becoming a major part of what my future will be. Its something that I really excel at. Are you interested in Transfiguration yourself?"[/color][/b]

Sebastian posed the question as he lied through his bloody teeth which he hated doing more then anything in is life, but it was necessary to break the tension and awkwardness of this first meeting. He was fairly certain he could handle whatever talk of Transfiguration she threw his way, it was not his calling in life but he was fairly knowledgeable.
