He danced down to the lake. He was still a little wobbly, trying to balance on two legs. How did humans do this all the time??
But he was determined. He was going to dance. Maybe he could even get a music number going. Last time he'd tried, a bunch of hippos and crocodiles and birds and stuff had come out of nowhere and joined in. Could happen again!
He decided to start up his very own karaoke section of the party and grabbed a stick to pretend was a microphone, and started singing.
"Hakuna mattata! What a wonderful phrase!!" (He hadn't actually been taught that song yet, so who knew how the words came to him, but hey. This party was magical. And he'd eaten some magic brownies.)

Lola giggled and grabbed a stick of her own. Come on, the kid was cute, and she hadn't been singing for the longest time. She had a good voice, Lola. She literally could sing like an angel.
"Hakuna matata... Ain't no passing craaaaze!"

He gave her a pleased and slightly drunken smile, then slid across the floor on his knees as he crooned, "It means no worries! for the rest of your days!"
But mid-side, something... happened. He felt... smaller. And, he didn't have knees any more. He stood up quickly and looked down at his front -- ... paws.
He turned back to Lollie, looking sheepish. It hadn't lasted very long, he though.

"Oh it's you!" she said brightly. "Hello, Simba. I didn't know you were such a talented singer. Or that you made such a handsome human," she added with a little laugh.

So, as was her habit since coming to Hogwarts, she found herself a pretty flowered dress (yellow and summery this time), snagged herself a drink, and settled in around the fringes of the party to watch the action.

Now, however, she was far from melancholy--she'd not seen so many people at once, bar one or two parties, since she'd first come here. She moved easily enough, collecting a glass of punch and taking a seat not far from the fire. She smiled as she watched everyone--things were so different here than they had been in Westeros, yet the feeling was the same.

With no compunction whatsoever he made his way over to his friend. "A lovely day for burning things, is it not?" he remarked, shielding his eyes with one hand in order to get a better look at the bonfire.
