With a hair flip and a twist of the hips that added a certain strut to her heeled step,
Ruby Banner headed to the Slytherin table. Her people, apparently, according to the
rude hat who didn't even introduce itself or say hello or
anything. She had already, in the short time she'd been wearing it, made a few necessary adjustments to the horror show this school
claimed was a suitable
uniform. Skirt shortened? Check. Tie loosened? Check. Top buttons undone? Check, check,
check.
The newest Slytherin fifth year eyed the table thoughtfully. Where to sit? Which position would she claim forevermore? There were an awful lot of little kids. That didn't appeal at all except maybe to amass a following if she got bored. That could wait though.
Ooooooooh there was her answer. Hellllllooooo Grayson. She was confident
he'd be pleased that she was in his house, abso
lutely sure, in fact. She gave him a sultry little wave. He was still going to give her a
tour, right?
Ruby also noticed shiny badges. Prefects? Hmm obviously she had to make friends with them. And it seemed Gray already had an in, so that was useful. That one girl she recognized actually, from the field trip even if Ruby hadn't exactly been social with most of the girls that had gone.
She'd had other priorities, you see.
Okay, but
hold the
floo for a second, there was a woman in a
throne at the head of the table. Ruby eyed her up and down, taking measure. Why did everyone else get stuck sitting on hard benches? Why weren't there even cushions to sit on?
"So like, where's my throne?" Hand on hip, hair flip. Something
had to be done about this lack.While she surely wasn't up to thrones, Ruby could manage a cushion. She conjured a lovely fat one, the same green and silver that was apparently her new house colours because obviously she wouldn't want it to clash.
Obviously. Now she just had to choose where to place said cushion.
