SHe headed to her familiar table and noticed that it was overrun by new faces. She found a spot and glanced around for new faces to meet.
She smiled her famous sparkling smile at a very young girl that must be a firstie....or no maybe a second year. "Howzit, I'm Satine, sixth year." she said holding out her right hand. "It's nice to meet you...are you a firstie or second?" she asked as she glanced around.
As she glanced, she noticed a girl drawing...well...maybe more doodling on her hand. She smiled and reached into her purple bag and pulled out some parchment.
"Howzit, I'm Satine, sixth year." she said as she handed the girl the parchment. "Trust me from personal experience the professors highly dislike you drawing on yourself....some just because but some are afraid you'll draw a masterpiece and then you'll just wash it away." she said with a little gigglie. She examined the girl again and decided she must be a firstie. "Are you a firstie? If so, let me be the first one to welcome you Ravvie, the house of the most Intelligent and best looking" she said with a little wink.
As she spoke, she noticed a familiar face busy in conversation. She just smiled and waved over the heads of all of the newbies hoping Alex hadn't forgotten who she was already.
Keely glanced up from her graffitied hand at the girl, who couldn't be much older than herself.
"Goodmorning, Starshine. I'm Keeley." She thankfully took the offered parchment, wishing she hadn't left her own in her trunk. Giggling, she replied,
"Thanks. I suppose I'll have to keep the masterpieces on paper."
Twirling her short, brown hair, Keeley laughed. Her? A firstie? Teehee, so much for being 'all growed up.' Goodnaturedly, she replied,
"Ehm, actually, I'm in fifth year." Hm, maybe babyfaces are good when you're and old person.
"But thanks for the warm welcome. And I have to agree, we are the best looking."
