Curly Wade was here! Ella grinned at him after her explanation and stood on her tippy toes, giving him a hair ruffle. "Hi Wade!" It was good to see him, did he know? Sadly she didn't think there were any pickles at this party though. She hoped he wouldn't be too upset about that fact.

Her attention was then caught by a familiar brunette and the blonde badger SQUEAKED and practically tackled her best friend. "Soph!" She was here! She was alive! She wasn't camping out in the library anymore! "Merlin, you're a hard person to find and I'm a badger. I'm glad you've finally decided to grace us with your presence." GRIN. She'd missed having her around and with them both being so busy, hangouts weren't happening nearly often enough.

And then the red head from the Quidditch team came in to inform Airey that West was hurt and Ella's brow furrowed, debating whether or not to go and try to help. She decided in the end that she'd only be in the way and besides, Professors were better at dealing with this stuff. "I hope he's okay," She said quietly to no one in particular. He would be okay, yeah? The kid was prone to head-butting people so he clearly had a hard noggin. He'd be fine.

... ... And a ginormous cupcake tower.

O___O

Someone should save one for the Slytherin captain, she'd decided.
