Congratulations..? He looked at her curiously for a moment before looking down at the badge on his robes as he saw her gaze drift there. Oh, right.. "Thanks," he said, gracing her with an appreciative grin.
Great.
So she actually got the name right.
Otherwise it would have been really awkward.
‘Yes, I had a great summer’, she replied.
‘Been around Diagon Alley most of the time and I was in France for a couple of weeks’ Ugh. Enough details coming from a not-so-very-talkative person like Gwen.
‘How about you?’ SPOILER!!: Zeke

Step#1 towards Gwen. Step#2 towards the Ice Princess. Step#3 towards the girl who makes him blush a lot. Step#4 towards the Ravenclaw whom he thinks he's in love with. Step#5 towards the one.
And, he's behind her now. "Hey Gwen," he greeted as he took the seat beside her. No weird greetings today. He was as normal as a Zeke could manage to be. Resting his elbow on the table, he leaned one side his head against his fist while his body twisted to face Gwen and his eyes focused on his Ice Princess. Wait, no. Was he allowed to use that nickname still?
Hmmm. Well, it's not like anyone's there to stop him from calling her that in his head.
Gwen was wondering if she should pay a visit to her friends from the other houses, or spend some time at the Ravenclaw table. Hmm. She glimpsed towards the place where the Gryffindors were sitting, but she couldn’t spot anyone from this distance. Umm.. better wait a few more minutes. As she drew her attention back to her fellow Ravenclaws, the seventh year heard someone talk to her.
. . . Zeke.
Turning around, the seventh year offered a smile.
‘Hi!’, she greeted Zeke and hugged him. What? She was actually happy to see him. Heh. Was he looking for someone? Or was he here just to see her?
‘Any idea how much longer until the speech?’ Mehh. Random question.
SPOILER!!: Mika!!!

SMIRK.
Hmm. How are things.
’Umm… good, I guess. I’m just trying to get used to the fact that I’m a seventh year now’, she said honestly. Ehh. But she didn’t want to think about that right now.
Summer holiday!
‘Great. I actually spent most of the time around Diagon Alley, but I had lots of fun’ Mhm. Especially at the Bowling Alley. Ehem. And, then of course there was her trip to France, about which Gwen wanted to say something, but she got distracted when she saw another firstie join the Ravenclaw table.
Erm. So. Back to Mika.
‘How about you?’ she asked. How was her summer? Gwen remembered having talked to the younger Ravenclaw at the end of term feast. And Mika seemed to have planned a great holiday. Something about going to the States.. and Melbourne? Hmm. Something like that.
SPOILER!!: Niamh

Missed her school?
’Where did you study?’ Until now, that is. Hmm. Maybe Beauxbatons? Didn’t want to leave… yes. She could understand that. But she was sure the other student would soon learn to like Hogwarts.
Hmm. Not home yet? Better fix that.
‘I’m Gwen, by the way’, the seventh year said, figuring out that it was a good thing for the younger student to get to know some people around.
‘And umm… Welcome to Ravenclaw’ SPOILER!!: aaetha

She glanced nervously around the table, taking in the groups of people chattering happily to one another, the tattered banner, nice tablecloth, and... was that a plastic cup? Okay, paper plates, plastic silverware, odd, but maybe there was some kind of picnic theme to the start of term feast this year? Or maybe this was all normal, she really couldn't judge, having never been here before.
Isobel realised that she'd been standing for longer than was probably normal, and hastily took a seat a few chairs away from anyone else. She pretended to be very, very interested in the "Dixie" label on her cup.
New Ravenclaw.
Gwen smiled at the girl who had just arrived at the table.
‘Hi there’, she greeted the new Eagle.
‘Welcome to Ravenclaw’ The best house. Ehem.
