His eyes wandered up and down the table as he stood there, hoping to see someone that he recognised but apparently failing. He hoped that someone would talk to him soon otherwise he would have to head on back to his table and sit there once more. It wasn't that he didn't like his new housemates, it was that he didn't know that many other Slytherins.

The twelve year old didn't dare sit unless he was stared or shouted. But they weren't like that at Hogwarts.

Were they?
Oh, great. Cora took a deep breath. She had already arrived a bit late to the feast, and she didn't recognize a single person. Not many even knew who she was, at least Cora thought so. While she sat silently, nervously twirling her hair, she looked up and saw a boy who seemed almost as out of place as she felt.

Since she was so shy, at first Cora decided to just ignore him. After a moment, though, she thought she should be nice. Taking a deep breath, she looked up at him. "H-Hi," she said. "I'm Cora." That was all she was able to manage, and it was spoken in such a quiet voice that she couldn't be sure if he had heard. She smiled politely, wondering if he would even notice her. She quickly tucked a lock of her curly brown hair behind her ear and bit her lip nervously.
