Upon entering the Great Hall Nate was happy that he was back at Hogwarts. Instead this time his eyes were back to it's normal hazelish color. Though there was one thing Nate noticed about his table that wasn't all that normal...the banner looked older instead of it's normal bright, happy, and more youthful look to it. Now it was just plan old. Odd. That turned Nate's smile into a slight frown, but he was still really happy! Because he was back at Hogwarts with all of his friends. Like normal he walked over to the house table...like he does every year, an sits down by every one of his friends. Then he noticed...plastic ware?! WHAT WAS THIS?! First the banner, now the plates, cups, and utensils!? What's next the classrooms are going to shrink so then it's going to be a tight fit? The common rooms wouldn't be clean like they are every year? Now this was an out rage.

SPOILER!!: Alec

Nate first noticed Alec...because Alec wasn't that hard to notice. So he said "Hey Alec. How was your summer?" Truth was Nate didn't really want to talk right now...he just wanted to eat, get to the common room, then take a nice long nap. Hopefully he would get to do that. I mean Nate wouldn't mind a little talking...just not much. Which was kind of weird because normally Nate was a talkative person.

SPOILER!!: Ella

"Hey Ella. Good to see ya' again. How have you been doing?" Nate could see it in her eyes that she liked Nate's best friend....possibly evenbe dating Alec. Could that be? Nah. That would be to weird. Yet knowing them they would be dating. This was one mystery Nate had to get to the bottom of it. Yes he would have to find out if they were dating or what? Nate was a snoopy person. He could not help, but getting in other people's business...especially when it came to dating business. Nate knew almost all the couples in Hogwarts. It was the truth. That was one of Nate's many...many hobbies. That was his second favorite. His favorite was scaring Oakey. Once again that was the truth.

SPOILER!!: FORREST!

Ermigerd it was Nate's knew favorite first year Forrest! He was in his house too! Now he would have to watch to first years. His sister, who unfortunately was a Slytherin, and there was Forrest....the most adorable little thing you would ever see. "Hey Forrest! I see you met some of my friends. So welcome to the house of Hufflepuff. I don't mean to brag, but we're five years in a row House Cup winners. Hopefully it will be six. Though you never know. You're going to love Hufflepuff. You can even ask Oakey, Alyssa, Alec, or Ella." Speaking of which that's when he noticed Alyssa and Oakey.

SPOILER!!: Alyssa

"Hi Alyssa. How was your summer this year. Did you go anywhere?" He asked her. He had to ask her that because she lived across the pond in California? Something along those lines. Nate really wasn't good when it came to naming the states. He'd always mix up names, pronounce them wrong, or mix up there locations. He only went there once, and that was when he was really little. When he was about 6 months he went on a family vacation to Florida? It was either Florida or Michigan. Or was it Massacheusits? Whatever state has Salem he went there.

SPOILER!!: Prefect Oakey[QUOTE=DJ ExpelliarMOOSE;11348081

Finally Nate turned to face Oakey said "Hey Prefect Oakey. How have you been? Was your summer good?" He just asked the normal question........that he asked every year on the first day of Hogwarts. Like normal.... Nate really had to starting learning new phrases to mix it up a bit. He would constanly ask the same old question over, and over, and over again. Eventually it had to get at least a bit annoying. Would it not annoy you if every year the same question got asked to you?

It was sort of... weird knowing that this was his fifth time entering this hall for a Start of Term Feast. Really very weird. And what was weirder was that he was, once again, one of the first people to enter the Hall. The soon-to-be sixteen year old continued heading over towards the Hufflepuff table, his hands deep in the pockets of his trousers. Alec felt a little bad about not heading over towards one of the other tables to sit instead but... the Hufflepuff one was just... home. Sort of. It was just as he was really close to the middle of the table and was about to look for someone to sit with that... BLINK. HOLD. THE. SNITCH. The boy stopped in his tracks and just STARED down at the cutlery. What?! WHAT WHAT WHAT. He reached over and picked up the yellow plastic cup, examining it as carefully as he would do with a Snitch. "What is..." his voice trailed off as he looked away from the cup and then up and down the table. His grey-blue eyes shot up from the Hufflepuff table and looked around at all the other table as well. Plastic. Cutlery and things. Everywhere. WHAT. A confused expression crossed Alec's face before the boy sunk down in his seat, one hand still holding onto the yellow cup. ... This... was a weirder start than usual. Nate first noticed Alec...because Alec wasn't that hard to notice. So he said "Hey Alec. How was your summer?"

She was tired, sure, but also excited to see her second family and meet its newest members. N'aww ickle baby badgers were going to be cute, yeah? Besides, she had recruiting responsibilities now. Spotting the boyfriend and the Bliss, the blonde grinned and waved to them. "Hey guys!" She then plopped down next to her boyfriend and planted a kiss on his cheek. Blink. "Plastic?" What was this about? "Do you think that the House elves don't want to wash dishes anymore?" "Hey Ella. Good to see ya' again. How have you been doing?"

Then, taking his seat somewhere in the middle, he kept beaming at people until he realised he probably looked pretty silly. He blushed a little and bowed his head forward in shame. Silly, SILLY Forrest making a scene everywhere! Then his brain registered the plastic. It was enough to erase the smile completely. With a troubled look on his face, he looked around to see whether someone explained it. Not that he was an expert on how things worked 'round here, but Hogwarts was rich enough to provide them with metal silverware and plates. ...right?

SPOILER!!: Alyssa Quote: Originally Posted by FireboltAvis88 Alyssa sat down at the Hufflepuff House table. This was officially her last Start of Term Feast. She looked around at the happy faces around. Some familiar and well loved, others just acquaintances, and then there were fresh new faces, most likely first years and transfer students from other schools. Alyssa was exhausted, suffering jet lag after having flown all the way from the States, and then followed by the ride from King's Cross to here, but she decided that she would at least have something to eat before heading downstairs to the Common Room to get some rest. She looked around her again and realized that she was going to miss all this. She wished she didn't have to leave this place, but she knew some things were beyond her control. Her time at Hogwarts was coming to an end, and she had to accept it, whether she liked it or not. Then Alyssa noticed a young first year join their table. She smiled at his enthusiasm on his face which was quickly followed by a frown. She leaned over and asked. "Is something wrong? You have that look on your face?" Alyssa asked the boy. "I'm sure whatever it is, it can be fixed. Welcome to the Hufflepuff by the way. I'm Alyssa and it's nice to meet you." Alyssa told the boy sticking out her hand to shake his. "Hi Alyssa. How was your summer this year. Did you go anywhere?" He asked her. He had to ask her that because she lived across the pond in California? Something along those lines.

SPOILER!!: Prefect Oakey[QUOTE=DJ ExpelliarMOOSE;11348081 Oakey's final Starting term feast...was lacking in luster. He eyed each of the banners over head and noted how droll they all looked. Hufflepuff especially. Yellow was normally a vibrant color, but this was more like...if someone threw up on it, which could have been the case cause he thought he spotted a stain on it somewhere while looking up. He leaned his head back down and looked forward at the tables. Were those plastic cups and forks, the plates were looking flimsy too. He moved his way to the Hufflepuff table and sat beside three students in Green. Great even the wardrobes were getting moldy. OH HOLD ON! That was West, Theo, and and the younger girl...Sonea he thougt her name was. He turned his head over to the Slytherin table had they run out of seats ~~were those cut back on too~~? How many first years were sorted into their house that they couldn't fit these two and the girl? He quickly remembered the plastic as he saw Wim... Theodore snap on of them. "You could go over to your Table and do that you know." Oakey looked down at his paper plate. and over to the one Theodore was sitting over. Paper was something he needed as he wasted all the parchment on the Train ride up trying to write Professor Flamsteed's Summer Assignment. Without asking Oakey grabbed the plate in front of the Slytherin and layed it on top of the paper plate in front of him. He pulled a quill from his robe and started writing down on the Paper Plates. So long as the Assignment was done the Large Foreheaded Professor would have to accept it.[/QUOTE] Finally Nate turned to face Oakey said "Hey Prefect Oakey. How have you been? Was your summer good?" He just asked the normal question........that he asked every year on the first day of Hogwarts. Like normal.... Nate really had to starting learning new phrases to mix it up a bit. He would constanly ask the same old question over, and over, and over again. Eventually it had to get at least a bit annoying. Would it not annoy you if every year the same question got asked to you?
