"I'm a second year!" Officially a second year. Loud and proud Nika, loud and proud.
"What about you?" She did look older, but how much older??

"Well there are a lot of new professors this year from the looks of it. But my favorite professor by far is Professor Bishop! She teaches divination which just so happens to be my favorite subject, next to care of magical creatures." Nika was hopeless at all sorts of magic. Yet she seemed to do a decent job in divination. At least on the hands on prediction stuff, the questions she'd just try and guess.
"Then there is Dragon Lady, I mean Professor Lafay." Oh the wonderful nickname.
"She's the potions professor and slytherin head of house. I try my best to steer clear of her. She's very strict and gets irritated easily." Don't forget straight up mean
.
"Most kids are afraid of her, but I bet she can be a normal person outside of class... maybe. Although I wouldn't be surprised if she actually did breathe fire." Quote:

Although a small thought kept prodding out in Ginny's mind - she wasn't brave. She had barely held up a conversation with the nice girl on the train, and she had yet to find any new friends. How was she brave?
The thoughts seemed to soar from her brain as she looked at the long, brooding Gryffindor table.
But where to sit??
Nika saw a confused looking little Gryffie wandering around the table. Oh another mission for the new Hogwarts welcoming committee. Well, okay it's not an official group, but after all of the introductions Nika had gone through today she sure felt like she should be apart of it. She waved to the girl and gestured for her to come near.

Now, she was sitting down at the Gryffindor House Table, internally chanting a happy song. But after her song had died out, she realized something, 'I don't know anyone here! Who could I possibly talk to? They all seem to have found a friend, and others already formed groups from years ago.' And so Zara frowned.
Nika saw another firstie just sorted into Gryffindor! YAY! Welcome to the awesome house. She almost shouted it out, but decided against it. She'd talk to the girl first before showing how crazy she is.
"Hey there!" Nika smiled warmly at the girl.
