[Ysera smiled more for Neville's question than for the camera, but it was enough for the Gryffindor-fan. The camera flash went off, even as the others snapped a few more quick shots.]

"Oh, that's perfect! Thank you sooo much!"

[The camera holding girl gushed her thanks profusely as the rest started chiming in with their gratitude.]

"Eee! This is so amazing! Thank you, thank you!"

[The 'Honey Badger' girl bounced and practically wiggled in delight as she clapped her hands together.

Ysera smiled and nodded at them before speaking more quietly to Neville.

I'm fairly widely known of back in my homeworld. But I had not truly realized how many people in this world knew of me until coming to this Convocation.

[She looked down and smiled warmly at Neville.]

I confess it is most unexpected to have so many strangers knowing who and what I am. I imagine it's so for you, as well?

Er... yeah. No one knows who I am back home. Except that I'm the child of my parents. It's loads different than this -- whatever this is.

I've never seen a gathering quite like this back home, either.

[The girls had formed a little gaggle as they chattered excitedly. As they started heading off, a few of them waved at Neville and Ysera. A girl in Ravenclaw colors actually gave a quick bow to Ysera before hurrying after the rest.

The 'Honey Badger' girl hesitated, glancing from the group of girls to Neville and back. Then she suddenly darted forward to attempt to hug Neville around the waist. If she succeeds, she's going to try to slip a piece of paper with her phone number into his pocket.

"You're so awesome, Neville! Nobody'll believe I got to meet you! Thank you!"

[And then she stood on her toes to try to kiss his cheek.]

Oh -- blimey -- yeah, I can't quite, um, sorry... They seem a bit nutty...

[Ysera smiles sympathetically as Neville turns back to her. While she hasn't been groped, some of the daydreams of her male 'fans' were much too explicit for her to want to pay any amount of attention to them.]

They're certainly... enthusiastic. I would not call them 'mad' of course. But, for many here, it seems as if being at this Convocation is an excuse for them to step away from mundane reality, and live for a time, in dreams and imagination. I have never quite seen it's like, before.
