Somehow his way of speaking made her want to act like one of the guys for some reason and before she could censor her movements she actually reached a hand out and clapped him on the back. Manly like. "Quite fun, ol' bean." Well he was old, him being a seventh year and all. " Eeeh scratch the bean part, odds are you don't like being called a bean." She for one didn't feel too fond of it herself.
Her nervousness dwindling away now that she'd found someone she knew, Ivory burst into the most words she'd said all day. "There was the wedding, Arya's brother you know, and that was loads of fun...Oh and we ended up going on a family vacation. Hit the beach, some amusement parks that were fantastic. One of them even almost put the Gringott's carts to shame. Almost. And then..." She took a quick breath and let it out in more words. "My little brothers and I stayed with our new great aunt while my parents went to research some plant or other in Italy. Which was interesting to say the least. Much cleaning... Tell me do I smell of moth balls and old people? Because I honestly feel like I spent enough time in the attic for the smell to be infused in my skin. " Exhaling a sigh that sent a tendril of hair flying away from eyes, she shook her head ruefully at the tedious memories of her great aunt and her disapproving demeanor on everything that was her. "But anywho, then we all met up here in London for shopping and whatnot and then I got my letter and well you could've knocked me over with a feather with how surprised I was to have a badge. Aaand you wouldn't believe-" "You too," Kellen pointed out. "Ravenclaw prefect. Bravo." He wasn't really sure where the ol' bean and jocular behaviour were coming from, since not even his father acted like that, but he was prepared to chalk it down to nerves and not look too much further into it.
Then came the tidal wave of words, and while it left some kind of lasting imprint on his brain the first thing Kellen did was reply, "Er... you don't? Smell like old people?" Ten points for catching the question in all of that? Quote:

"It's a pleasure to meet you Kellen" she smiled. "Oh thats okay, not a lot really happened to be honest" she was far too distracted by it all, and not forgetting how.. emotional she was feeling as well. "I'm sorry, I don't actually know what that is" she stated, slightly embarrassed by that fact, but she was pureblooded, there was a lot she didn't know of. "Do you mind if I sit? The Slytherin table was getting a little bit too crowded?" she asked eying the empty seat next to him. Quote:

Her summer now forgotten she and glad to see that the older girl was in a slightly happier mood, Ivory smiled back cheerily. "Hi, Trixie." They'd met but it probably wasn't under the best of circumstances and there'd been sooo many epople in that compartment; Maybe she should introduce herself again... "I don't think I introduced myself very well on the train, sooo....Hello officially, I'm Ivy." "Aha so that's where you were." There was no doubt in her mind who the culprits were considering she herself loved to partake in the same conversations. Sadly she'd spent most of the train ride just roaming around so she'd probably escape the Ravenclaw table in a bit to go spend some quality time with her best friend. But for now..."For what it's worth I think its a justifiable excuse." Grinning at the head girl, she looked back and forth between the two of them."So guys how does it feel to be head people?"[/FONT] Kellen felt relieved that someone else in this hall had spent their life not marinating in the works of Tolkien, and waved at the bench space around them, "Sure, take a seat. The more the merrier."
He shrugged at Ivory, trying to get rid of the nerves still clinging about his person. How'd it feel to be head boy? "Like I should know what I'm doing and still feel like I'm mostly winging it. How about you, Trixie?" |
