Konata had not read the latest chapter, as she had come here, so she was mildly surprised to see Near look so...adult. But, then again, maybe it's an adult cosplaying Near when he should have cosplayed L. Or Mello!

"Can I have a picture with you?"

A photograph? That was one of the thinga he'd been trained since childhood to avoid. And why would this girl want a picture with him anyway?

"I'm sorry, but no. I don't like cameras."

"Aww," but Konata complied. "But you do look good. Can I at least get a picture of the puppet?"

Now, that was something Near was not at all used to; being told he looked good. In truth, it was mildly unsettling.

"I did offer the puppet as a bribe. Would you like it?"

"CAN I?" Oh, Near, you have made this otaku happy. "Oh, thank you thank you thank you! I can't vote you anywhere yet, but once I can, I am voting you into my house!"

If you understood that, good for you.

"...vote..." That was a vaguely familar concept, as more than one person had 'voted' him into Ravenclaw. "Why would you be unable to vote?"

"I'm not sorted yet either. But I got here before you did, so I'll probably be sorted before you, and when I'm sorted, I'll vote for you, okay?"

Konata picked up the order of things fast.

That did make some sense, given the reactions of some of the others he'd spoken to. "Very well. So far, the people I have spoken to have voted for me to be in Ravenclaw. Does that sound fitting to you?"

"Well, yeah," Konata said, in a voice that betrayed her thought that that should have been obvious.

"As long as you don't think I'm an alcoholic. I've heard Ravenclaw is known for that as well."

"Oh, really, that's different. Huh." Konata thought for a second before grinning deviantly. "I wonder if I can get sake now."

"I would scold you for being too young to drink, but I don't really concern myself with things like that."

"Wait, what is the drinking age in Scotland?"

Well, knowing little details like that was Near's stock in trade.

"Eighteen, under most circumstances."

Konata grinned. "I can drink then. Take that Kagami, I get to drink before you!"

Never mind that Kagami was all the way in Japan. Konata certainly doesn't.

[[No, seriously. Despite the look, she's 18 by the end of Lucky Star. She makes a big deal about it because now she can buy her own porn games.]]

"Drink all you like, then." He'd already made a mental note to keep an eye on this girl. Why had she wanted to photograph him?

[[Oh, I believe you! I caught an ep or two of Lucky Star.]]
