Lili laughed. "My cousin is definitely a book worm and yes, he was Gryffindor. My father was Slytherin and my Mother was Gryffindor." She smiled a bit. "But Yea. I dont get it either. How he is the Slytherin Head of House. But He does well with it"
She smiles and sips the drink. "I don't remember honestly"

She smiles.
"It's all good. I doubt he'd remember me anyway. After a few failed attempts at making a name for myself, I kept my head down and simply survived. The last few years were like that. Thank goodness my family is known pure blood is all I can say about that."
She shivers a little, drinks some of her drink, sighing and settling back. She shifts suddenly as her feet encounter Raven, but as the big dog doesn't seem to mind Marigold burrows her toes into the dog's fur happily.
"When you're not staying in fancy hotels, where's home? I've got a little terrace out in Queens Park, if you ever wanted to come visit. I share with a friend, re cool."

"I usually kept my head low too. I uh.. Had some issued with people close encounters with people. So i tended to stick to myself." She shrugs and smiles. "I honestly didn't know my 'blood type' as they say. My adoptive parents are Full. But I didn't know what I was. Until recently."
"Depends on the day and if i'm in school or not" She said with a laugh. "I have my parents house outside of London Proper, Dristans Estate, and I was staying in Camden town before coming here" SHe playes the with straw of her drink a moment and looks up at her. "That would be fun. Only a few weeks left of the the summer holiday before we get ready to go back to Hogwarts though."

Marigold nods, listening.
"Camden is nice," she says, almost absentmindedly. Then she looks up, smiles. "I bet you can't wait for the grind of the school year to be up, and real freedom to do what you want."
Marigold couldn't help but wonder what things could've been like if her school years had been different.

"I guess. I like being at Hogwarts. Sure, it has its own drama. I had my fair share the last few months of school. But I enjoy it. I keep to myself, I do well in my classes. But I don't excell in anything in particular. Not like some students I know"
She sips her drink again and sits back in the booth.

Marigold just nods.
"I liked the learning, but was happy to get out of the school. My parents wanted me to go to college, but I just couldn't stand the thought."
The 'band' change up their music. The base guitar gets replaced with an electric, and the tempo jumps and the music becomes danceable, but still not too loud. A few couples get up to dance.
"Hey," Marigold smiles, "want to dance?"
The music feel is a mix of rock and swing.

"I do enjoy the learning side of it. All the different subjects and all the stuff you don't learn in muggle school." She said with a laugh. "Could you imagine a muggle sitting in defense against the dark arts or Potions..." She laughed. "Or Divination"
Sure, she was taking a hit to herself with the whole divination thing but it was true. When the music changed and she was asked to dance she nods. "Sure. If I dont fall over from standing up." She slowly scooting out of the booth. She was feeling the hit of the alcohol with each motion. She still worried about all the contact that might occur but she was relaxed at this moment.

Marigold reaches out to steady Lil if she looks like toppling, smiling at how the drink has affected her young friend, and not at all guilty about it. She leads Lil out onto the floor, and they dance. As Liliana seems shy of too much touching, Marigold settles into a semi swing step that doesn't require it, adlibing every chance she gets, almost teasing the tipsy younger witch to reach greater extremes of expression. It's fun, chaotic, music and alcohol fuelled fun.

Lili follow the older witch to the dance floor. She moved to,the music letting her body do whatever it was it was going to,do. She wasnt sure how odd she looked and she rightly didnt care.
She was enjoying this and she enjoyed the feeling,of the alcohol in her system.

The dance music continued for about half an hour. Marigold showed no signs of wanting to stop dancing, seemingly lost in the music. Though not lost enough that she fails to catch Liliana as she stumbles, the alcohol finally getting to her. She smiles at Lil.
"I think you may have hit your limit for tonight. Would you like me to call you a taxi?"

"I'm fine" she whispers looking at the girl. "Lost my footing is all"
She got herself stable again and looked around the club. "I needed the night out."

Marigold nods. "Yesh, I get that. Can I get you some water at least? Or something to eat?"
She looks over and sees Raven coming to the rescue, nuzzling up against Lil's legs, giving her support.
"I think your friend is giving you a hint. Sit for a bit, I'll be right back." And she moves of towards the bar.

Lili pets Raven sitting down back,at the booth. Her head swam lightly. "At least i got a chance to come out" Raven wooded and nuzzled her again.
"I,know. Take it slow. Got it" She watches Marigold walk to the bar and she smiled. "Maybe ill have another friend out,of this. Lord,knows I could always use more,of those...."

Marigold returns with two large bottles of chilled water, some potato crisps, and a tall cone of crumbed chicken fingers dripping with an orange mayonnaise.
"Right, food. Crunchy, fatty, sweet ... and water." She sits down, pulling out a chicken finger and biting half off with a smile. "Does Raven like spicy? The mayo has a little heat, but he'd probably enjoy the chicken."

Lili looks up as Marigold comes back and smiles taking a few potato crisps. and then a good drink of water. "Ive never done spicy with him so i honestly dont know" She said with a laugh.
She lets the food settle into her stomach and drinks more of the water. "So do you come to london a lot inbetween your work affairs?"

Marigold nods.
"Whenever I can. I like the nightlife, just can't afford the rental here. Sometimes I actually come in for work, which is nice. It means the client pays the hotel bill." She grins a little. "Alas, this trip is personal, so it ends tomorrow. But you never know. You mentioned sometimes staying in Camden? That's just down the tube line from Queens Park!"

"I do during the summer. SOmething different to get away from kids in my neighborhood. They dont exactly make being completely different easy" She said with a smile. "I will have to rememver that. Maybe on holidays or something we could hang out...That is if you wanted to."
She smiles rubbing her feet against Raven who sat nicely under the table again. "She smiles. "Well, at least I was able to spend a little time out with you before you make your trip back home, and out of the craziness of the city."

Marigold nods, smiles.
"It was a serendipitous meeting, by the pool. I've enjoyed our evening very much. You're far from the typical teen, Lil. Don't change too much."
She chooses a chicken finger with not too much mayonnaise on it, and slides it under the table to where Ravens head would re is a sound of slobber, and an eww expression from Marigold as she brings her hand back up dripping with dog saliva, reaching for a napkin.
"My god, that dog is made half of slime, I swear!" She exclaims. "No more chicken for you until you learn to eat more neatly." And she laughs.

"I'll try not to change. But being my age and in charge of a well-known family. I'm hoping the role doesn't try to chance who i am" She smiled watching her feed a chicken under the table to Raven.
The expression on her face was priceless and it made Lili laugh. A genuine laugh that she hadn't felt in a long while. "He is a new foundland. They tend to slobber a lot" She laughed again. "Most of the time its not a HUGE issue. Except he did slobber all over the floor at the hotel. That was pretty gross."

Marigold laughs too, though still creeped out by the amount of slobber on her hand, and how sticky it seems to be.
"Excuse me, while I go wash this off properly," she laughs, getting up and heading to the bathroom.

"Sure thing" She says with a smile. She leans back in tthe booth and pets Raven listening to the music.
"This was a much needed thing boy. I hope your at least semi enjoying yourself..." She pets the large creature idly as she waits for Marigold to return. Her eyes scanning the club, as she always did in new surroundings.
