First person to greet him? Or them? ... Jory. Alec smiled at the older boy, feeling both weird and sad at the same time. Wasn't it Jory's last year too? Would he be happy with... all of this? "Hey! Erm... thanks, mate!" Nodnod. "You want to get something to eat?" Because Alec was STARVED.
And speaking of food... or... someone who was happily munching on food... "Curly Wade!" he called, waving enthusiastically back at the older Puff, "I see you've already got yourself some pickles!" And did he always carry around a jar of those or did they somehow manage to pop up wherever Wade was?
Also, Wade had a good question. Alec furrowed his eyebrows and looked around the common room until his eyes landed on... "There she is!" And she was standing right next to the Head Girl too! "Hey Ells! Hey LochNessie!" Wave!
High fives? Yeah, sure, why not? The boy high fived Kace back, grinning a little at the boy's enthusiasm. Why couldn't he have that too? "Thanks, mate!" Courtesy of Wade, they had all gotten some pretty awesome onesies! "I like yours too! You make an awesome penguin!"
The uncomfortable and worried feeling from before sunk in again when someone else entered the common room, laden with a bronze trophy. The sixteen year old shuffled a little on the spot and smiled at Professor James before looking over towards the blonde Captain. ... Speech. Words. Talks about winning and losing and working together as a team. Alec smiled a little more at that. They did have a good team! Great, even. And he wanted to be happy about this little fact but... something just seemed very off about everything.
He did give her a thumbs up, though, and maybe clapped a little -- would he look silly if he was the only one who started clapping? -- before heading over towards the food table. His eyes scanned the room and... he frowned. People looked so... sad! Like Tobias over there. Wasn't he jumped between the benches with Oakster before the start of the game? And now him and Minnie were just... sitting there. And Kaid was on his own so... Kaid was going to get bro talk. Or bro... juice... drinking time, whatever that was.
Grabbing two glasses of pumpkin juice, Alec headed over towards the Chaser. "Erm... hey General!" The nicknames were back, yeah? "I thought you might like some pumpkin--"
BLINK. BLINK. STARE.
Groan. Again? Really?! Frown.
The cold... the sadness... it was all starting to become so... normal. Especially after, what, four separate encounters with the creatures? He set the glasses down on the table and took out his wand. He didn't know about Kaiden but he couldn't cast a Patronus. Nope. He'd try, though. Trying was a good start, yeah? Gulp.
...
Oh... hey! Moose! ... Oakster was here?
