Alexa Cambridge

Eeeep! This was the moment she had been waiting for since the day she got her acceptance letter and she had been waiting even harder (patience was always such a hard thing to exercise) once that Lainey woman got her into making that bet. Heh. She would show her; she would show them all!

With a grin that spread from ear to ear Alexa took a seat on the stool and looked down at the crowds of students. Her gaze rested particularly long on the Ravenclaw table. She might as well had picked out her seat now so she wouldn't have to do much guess work once she got down there. Seeeee? That was a smart decision right there.

Lex sucked in a deep breath when the hat was placed on her head then sat with all eyes on her as she waited for it to come to a decision.

Hmmm...what an interesting mind...

Uhh...she didn't like the sound of that very much. Her eyes glanced up in a vain effort to look at the hat. "When you say interesting mind do you mean interesting as in Ravenclaw interesting or interesting as in 'I don't know where I'm gonna put you but it won't be Ravenclaw interesting'...?

Catches on quickly too...has a good bit of loyalty...quite the devious little one I see as well but you're a wild one. Where do you belong...? The hat mused, completely ignoring her.

She ended up sitting there for what seemed like another five minutes before she realized that she was what people called a hat stall. NO!!! Time to try something else seeing as sitting here quietly wasn't getting her anywhere. "Look, I think this could end well for us both if you stick me in Ravenclaw--I mean, I'm sure you know how to do your job Mr. Hat but seriously--seriously, put me in Ravenclaw."

Becoming a bit demanding, are we?

"What? Me? Demanding--only when it's important. Look, if you don't place me in Ravenclaw then be prepared to be thoroughly soaked in gravy then digested within 48 hours." Give or take a few depending on how thick the leather of the hat was. If the hat was smart it would listen to her.

She felt the hat shifted on her head. Tsk, tsk. Let me guess; you've entered some kind of arrangement as a spur of the moment thing and without using very much sound judgment, possibly because the idea seemed COOL to you and now my answer is all that separates you from disaster...correct?

"Hey yeah!! How did you know?!" She shouted in amazement, momentarily forgetting where she was. She heard the hat sigh.

Because it must be GRYFFINDOR!!!!

Lex jumped from the stool immediately and threw the hat to the floor in contempt. She tried stomping on it but several individuals had anticipated this and rushed over to grab hold of her. Fine. She wouldn't fight against there pull, instead she glared down at the hat. "I hope you're happy with what you're making me have to do."
