Kurumi poured herself a glass of pumpkin juice and picked up a piece of roasted chicken before sitting back down and looking back at the younger boy. "
There certainly are a lot of new faces this term," she nodded in agreement, sipping on her juice. "
Even in regards to our Head of House. Professor Bentley has taken up the post now."

To the surprise of Gryffindors there was a pouring of cookies. Not just regular cookies but Gryffindor cookies.
"Awesome," Tenn excitedly said as she picked a Gryffindor cookie and started nibbling it. She even managed to say, "You're the best Kurumi. Did you made these?"
Placing her wand back in her pocket now, Kurumi looked over at Tennessee and smiled, a faint blush once again rising in her cheeks. "
Just performing my duties to the best of my ability," she mumbled. Kurumi had been delivering cookies to her fellow Gryffindors ever since her first year. The gesture came with the Japanese custom of always having a gift whenever you went some where new or were going somewhere where you would have to be looked over. Hogwarts certainly fit the bill. "
Baking is a hobby of mine. I spend most of my time in the kitchens really. Well, there and the common room and the library."

She hid a laugh behind her hand as the conversation turned to her brother... and his lack of normal. "That is too true." He was her crazy older brother that she loved. "You play quidditch then? Is it fun? It looks like it would be scary."
She smiled brightly at the last bit. "Thank you Prefect Kurumi." she said. "I will. If I ever need something." Which, she hoped she didn't. She wouldn't want to be known as a whiny first year.
Oh Merlin...she had broken a first year! o___________O
Kurumi sort of flailed as Anya giggled her head off beside her, but was able to make out her question. "
He is in Slytherin." Cue gasps? Shocked expression? Some sort of outburst? Or, perhaps the little first year would simply stop bouncing all over the place from laughter.
"
I did," Kurumi nodded. Did being the key part of that sentence. "
I really enjoyed it. The team is great and we have been lucky to have some fantastic captains, your brother among them. This year, my best friend is the captain." Which was sort of frightening to think about. Kurumi had the feeling that there was going to be more than golf balls being thrown around this term.
"
Just call me Kurumi," she said with a wink. Really, there was no need to say prefect each time. It was a mouth full, especially if you tacked on her last name as well.

He was so excited to see the variation of food that was before him, it was more then he had seen ever in his life. He grabbed for a dancing cookie, his mother would never let him eat a cookie before he finished his meal. "I know I am going to pay for this later, but it just looks so good" He says out loud. He takes turns listening, then eating, eating then listening. "I hope I don't miss anything important" but the food has his full and undivided attention right now, and he wasn't about to let it go to waste.
Kurumi giggled as one of the new lions reached up and grabbed a cookie from the air. Good, that is what they were there for. She laughed a little harder as his comment about paying for it later, and shot Selina a quick look. Maybe the red head should put the entire house through a training program of some sort. Evening work out routines in the common room or something?

Just as Jezz was about to say something else she fell silent because of the Headmasters speech. She had been up there and had tried to say hello to Professor Bentley already that night but was sent away by a certain grumpy Professor, she would never forget him as soon as she learned his name. At the end of the speech the table in front of her filled up with food and she smiled in joy.
Then, just as she got ready to say something else AND start digging in to the food, she was covered in glitter and streamer of Gryffindor colors and couldn't help but laugh as she realized that it had all been Kurumi's doing. She grabbed a cookie and found it was really hard to bit into it because it looked more like a piece of art. Her stomach protested at the lack of food and she caved, biting into it. The cookie was just as amazing if not better than the first one Kurumi had ever given her. "I love your cookies! Who needs vegetables when you have these?" She polished of f the cookie and moved on to some chicken and green beans. Veggies.
"
Well, you certainly won't have that problem here," Kurumi nodded. Even if Professor Scabior was always looking as though he hated the world, he was teaching for a reason and knew a lot about the subject. Surely that meant that he was enjoying it and willing to share, yes?
Just to tease the little first year, Kurumi pushed a tray of freshly steamed vegetables towards her. "
You wouldn't want to hurt their feelings or not listen to the Headmaster."

Once it was done he laughed at all the decorations "Kurumi you always go over board and give me one of those cookies!" he said while he wanted more food and her cookies were the best.
"
Summer was fantastic," she replied with a bright smile. "
I did a lot of traveling. I've hardly ever been outside of Japan, with the exception of school, so it has been nice to see other parts of the world." And there he went, snatching up cookies...or trying to anyway. Kurumi reached up and plucked one out of the air, handing it to him. "
Here," she laughed.
