"So, this is what the Gryffindor common room looks like."
"Suppose it's a welcome change from the snake pit," Harry replied cheekily.
"Hey, I am technically a 'Snake' you know, Potter."
"Sure, but you're also a little lion."
"Little lion, really?"
He shrugged smirking, "Well, you are small."
"I'm only a few inches shorter than you," Cassie protested as Harry snickered.
"What's a Snake doing in here?" demanded Ron as he entered.
"She was also sorted into Gryffindor, Ronald." Hermione shook her head at him disapprovingly and offered her an apologetic look, "Are you sitting with us today, Cassie?"
She nodded, "I was going to, Harry suggested it."

"Me?"
"Yes, we seek your knowledge fair maiden."
Cassie snorted, "Alright boys, you have fifteen minutes."
Hermione looked like she was going to protest it, but the twins moved too quickly for her as they escorted Cassie out of the common room saying they'll bring her to the feast with them unharmed - no-one looked willing to believe them.
