For him...back to the common room and tower and dorms that had been his home away from home for the past three years. It seemed like they were going out of their way this time around for some reason and Benny had to wonder the reason for this change out of the usual routine.

However when they arrived, using the new password for the Fat Lady's portrait, and slipped into the room decorated with red and gold part of the reasoning could be revealed. It seemed a party had been laid out by the professors. The astronomy man at least had certainly had to have time to make it upstairs before them. Benny vaguely remembered seeing the woman at the feast but not as late as her companion. He also had to admit, he knew like none of the lions currently inside the common room. Professors Flamsteed and Romano were the only familair faces.

Now where had both Angel and AJ disappeared off to?

And what was that purple stuff.

"Um...hello again Professor," he greeted Flamsteed as he approached where the two adults were. "Good evening Professor Romanos." As for his fellow unknown students, they simply received a friendly look.


The feast was over. The drama was over. AJ had a full belly and a busy mind. She was actually ready to crawl into bed and have that talk with her sister. AJ only hoped that things would be all better once they both got everything off their chest. The lion has had about all of the drama that she can take.

As she followed the head girl and prefect to their common room, she had a feeling that they were going a different way this time. It could just be because she was lost in thought, and wasn't paying close attention. When they FINALLY made it alllll the way to the seventh floor AJ made note of the password and followed her fellow clubs inside.


PARTY!!!

It was customary to have an after feast party, and even though she was just talking about it at the feast moments ago, she had forgotten. She blamed that on her being lost in thought too. "We have the best head of house ever," she called out to no one in particular. As she scanned the room she noticed that nobody looked familiar to her. Everybody looked older, and that meant that she should have at least seen their faces around. Weird.

Another scan of the room showed that Benny was there. Thank goodness. AJ waltzed over to him. "Do you know any of these people?" Or was it just her? It was looking like AJ was going to have to make some more lion friends.


And now there was blue stringy stuff around. Did the professors have something that he wasn't aware of? Benny ignored it, instead paying attention as Romanos greeted everyone and gave him a wave. At least he thought it was just to him. Grabbing a a mug of hot chocolate, he glanced around again as more and more lions appeared, finally spotting a couple of faces he knew. Well one he knew personally in the form of AJ. The other, the boy from Diagon Alley.

Oh and Miss Head Girl had reentered his line of sight.

The boy had occupied himself for a fellow new student and Alexa was chilling out and nodded in acknowledgement of him while AJ had made the approach, apparently just as unfamiliar with the rest of the room's occupants as he was. "Honestly...no. Well other than the professors. Alexa and a young boy I ran into over the summer." Everyone else was a relative stranger who was either new or Benny had just never met before.
