"Okay... I guess I should make sure I carry some coins around," Tobias nodded, looking back at the girl, and then around at some of the other students who, all of a sudden, seemed a lot older and a LOT bigger. At his old school, big kids had a tendency to go after the little kids to nick their money... hopefully that wouldn't happen here. No. Surely he'd be fine.

Tobias looked up at the girl and tilted his head slightly, but his attention was drawn by some other students, particularly someone who was refusing to enter. If he wasn't as eager to please as he was, he'd have been refusing to go in. Right on, fight the power, all that jazz.

"I just... why are they waiting until we're here before telling us we have to pay? Surely that's... I don't know. This isn't... it's not very fair, is it?"

He tried very hard not to pout, but this really was a bit of a shock. Tobias had been expecting extravagance and all that. Not paper plates and the building demanding payment.

Minerva smiled, "We all could have been better with a warning, but no use being upset now. We will work together and get through this. Our head of house will make sure of it and so will our Head Boy and Girl." She didn't want any first years feeling worried, not their first term. They should be happy and enjoying their new houses. This was just horrible.

She then decided to try and take his mind off of it, "So tell me a bit about yourself? Do you like Quidditch?" If he wasn't muggle born then this topic alone should take his mind away from what was going on and just worry about being a first year.

Looking around she wasn't sure if that was going to help since Nashy was protesting and everything else, wow this really was a bit much. Frowning she just wanted to have things back to normal or just people worrying about points and classes more then this..
