SPOILER!!: Benny

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.


The atmosphere was nice, and the party had clearly been thought out nicely. They even had muggle party accessories in the form of silly string and instructions to build a blanket fort. AJ didn't need to read up on that. She was a pro at that sort of thing. Why was she not her usual perky self? This was totally her thing. Under normal circumstances she would be getting chocolate wasted, and shooting everybody near her with the colorful junk. Of course she knew the answer to that. Adi. He was going to ask a girl out and their relationship would never be the same.

Benny confirmed that he didn't know many of the faces either. "Good. I thought it was just me." Where was Angel? AJ thought that she had been right behind her. "Want to build a fort or something?" she asked without any kind of emotion whatsoever. The second year just stood there all awkward like.

She saw Lex, Leo, and Zeke enter and they all got halfhearted smiles. She should be shooting them in the face with silly string, but it just didn;t sound as fun right now. AJ listened to everything that her new head of house had to say and nodded. She got it.
