Admittedly, some parts of her vacation had been fun, but no Muggle experience could beat magic. No way.
Taking a seat at an edge of her house table, unsure whether she wanted to take part in the loud discussions or save that for later, the girl suddenly felt different from the last time she had stood at this table. Older, somehow. Maybe this was what being a third year normally felt like. Whoa, a third year already?!? Time sure went by fast...
Nevertheless, Ariadne was too hungry, sleepy and happy to dwell too much on that.
Looking again at the Gryffindor house table, the girl tried to find Ari.
Come on come on…, she thought, quickly scanning the middle part of the table.
But she was nowhere to see. Grrr.
Then, not really willing to, Gwen draught her attention back to the Sorting Ceremony.
Oh great, another Ravenclaw- better be a good one!, she thought while clapping her hands as the new student approached their house table.
Back to the Gryffindor house table… Pam pam pam- let’s see, she thought and a smirk appeared on her face.
‘ARI!’, Gwen waved to her friend as she was approaching her. After giving her bestie a hug, the ravie asked, as if she wanted to be polite:
‘Mind if I join you?’
