----------This is for JESHIEH/Landon and Jenny!Luff/Melanie.

Alice giggled when Landon started to tease Melanie. Awwh. Her friends were awkward!cute. More awkward than cute. But whatever. "You don't remember a thing? .. Cut lip?" Oh, yeah. The cut lip was easy to heal, she had done that with a flick of her wand once they had taken a portkey to Hogsmeade. But the broken leg wasn't that easy to heal. Hence the splint. And crutches. She smiled, though, when Landon told her that he was proud of her for being brave. "It's still not a big deal.. but thanks. Though it really wasn't much to complain about. Kurumi and Melanie helped out alot."

SPEAKING OF MELANIE. She had been rather quiet ever since Landon had made her look like a fishy. "A sleepover everyday?" Alice had never been to a sleepover. They sounded too girly. But one with Melanie would be fun. "YEAH. We can have pillow fights.. and sneak down to the Kitchens at midnight to get noodles and curry! AND. We can chase Donnie around the Common Room!" And try to make him wear a bunny costume. That would be VERY fun. "What? No. I'm really not that tired."

Plus, if she sat down, she would take up to much room with her splint and crutches.

----------This is for Lexipoo/Tag!Lufflieh.

The lioness grinned when her co-parent gave her an awkward one armed hug. Of course, she awkwardly hugged him back. "Not here. I mean, where were you ON THE TRAIN? Annie and Nell.. I mean, Anya and Penelope.. they were looking for you. So was I! Tag the Second and I wanted to see you!" Tag the Second missed his daddy, yep yep. "Oh? You're eating a Kurumi-Cookie? Is it good?" She needed to snag another of those for herself before they ran out.

"OKAY. We can head to the Common Room after the feast is over and we can visit him." BEAM. "I'm pretty sure he's okay, but we should check for injuries. And I have these pretty yellow bandages that match his fur for little cuts and everything!" Though it would be better if he wasn't hurt. But whatever. "To me? Uhm.. oh, you mean my leg?" Nothing really happened. "I was sitting on Jake's lap in the train and I fell off and some trunks fell on me. And it kind of broke."

Which reminded her, she still had to visit the healer... but the feast was her number one priority.

----------This is for Baguette/Penelope, Nomsy/Jake, Lamey/Anya, Jacqui/James.. y'know.

And then she noticed Penelope sitting over in the corner by herself. "NELL!" she shouted, trying to wave her arms while still holding on to her crutches. After a while, she gave up and just hobbled over to the girl, being careful not to drag her splint. "Where did you go? I think I lost you after we took the Portkey." Pity. She really did like Penelope. She honestly like anyone who enjoyed food as much as she did. "Are you okay? Is your knee okay?"

And then her other big brother appeared as well.. telling her that he was a Gryffindor?! OHYAY. More people for her to bother in the Common Room. "That's amazing!" she exclaimed, wanting to give him a congratulatory hug, but restraining herself. She didn't really want to smack Jake in the head with a crutch. "We're going to be HOUSEMATES. You can give me a piggyback ride in the COMMON ROOM. Heck. You could give me a PONY RIDE in the Common Room."

She really did with that she hadn't broken her leg. She could have been getting a piggyback ride right now if she was lucky.

And then Anya appeared. She waved a crutch at her as well. She seemed pleased enough that Jake was in her house. Ignoring the awkwardness between her, Cobbie, and Penelope, Alice began to bombard the girl with questions. "Are you okay? You weren't hurt, were you? DId you see Alec? He scraped himself up pretty badly." Yes, because she was Alec's wing-woman. She thought Anya might like to know about her best friend's teensy injury, if she didn't already. AND. Here was James. Alice averted her eyes away. She was still upset at him for the THING. No, she was not going to talk to HIM. But, secretly, she was happy that he seemed to be in less pain and had a sling around his arm. So she tried not to look at him.. or scowl.. or stick her tongue out..

Thankfully, she succeeded. Kinda.

----------This is for Katie/Sir Broadmoooooooooor.

Alice sat down next to the boy with funky accent, restraining a giggle. She kind of liked it, he sounded very.. exotic. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little problem on the train, a bunch of luggage toppling on to me when it stopped. Did anything happen to you?" .. And this boy was asking her questions when he didn't even know her name? Well. At least he was talkative. "I'm Alice, by the way." Nice to meet you, too, person.

He hadn't been here for a year? Well, he sure did miss a lot, yeah? "Really? Where were you?" Pity. Last year was definitely a fun one.. come to think of it, all of them were. "Oh. I dunno how you could have slept through all that stuff." Maybe he hadn't even taken a portkey to the station? Maybe he had just been brought into Hogwarts with the luggage? Huh. Curious. "Tate WAS. I liked having a Headmaster who could be named after food." If this once couldn't be, maybe she would call her Buffalo Wing. Because buffalo wings had that funky red colour to them.. like the new Headmistress' hair.

"She was going through the compartments and yelling at the kids to get in a seat because of the train's problems. We had to take a portkey to Hogsmeade and take carriages to the castle, didn't you know?" This boy really had slept through a lot. Alice wished she could do that. "Tate?: Huh. Nothing. he just... retired." Yes, that was the word. But the lioness was distracted from her thoughts when the boy's stomach started rumbling loudly. "UHM. Are you hungry?" Silly question. But it was valid.

----------This is for Taylor/Selina.

Alice turned her head to see Selina, their Quidditch Captain, passing out flyer's.. about her missing bat?! WHAT?! Selina's bat was practically famous.. everyone in the House knew that if they crossed Selina or Kurumi or Gideon or anyone of her favourite lions, they had better watch out. This was not good news. It practically meant that their house could be AMBUSHED. Alice hobbled over to Selina on her crutches and peeked over her arms at the flyers she was passing out. "Your bat's gone missing? That's.. that'shorrid."

----------This is for Kath/Kurumi-Cookie.<33

Alice smiled when she got a Kurumi hug. She liked those. She let go of one of her crutches so that she could wrap an arm around the Prefect and hug her back. "Thanks, Kurumi. But you really did do a lot to help me out." She probably wouldn't have even been close to walking by now if it wasn't for her helpfulness. "I hope so. I'll be pleased when I can go to the healer and put all of these away. I don't like the attention." There was too many explanations that came along with it.

The pretty kitty cat? NOT behave himself? He seemed like a good cat to Alice. "Oh, yes. He was a very good kitty." She liked him very much. He was a good pet for Kurumi to have. "We are. There's.. there's so many PEOPLE. I can't seem to wrap my head around it. The first days are always the busiest."

But they were also the most fun.
