Oddly enough, Hayden had never been at the Ravenclaw table before. She generally stuck to the Hufflepuff table, especially during feasts, but she'd never been at the Ravenclaw table during any normal mealtimes either. She didn't really have any Ravenclaw friends. There was Maddie, who she waved to, and a few people close to her age that she'd seen around, who she sent friendly smiles toward, but she wasn't really close to any Ravenclaws. She hadn't done that on purpose, she was sure they were very nice people, it had just happened that way. Maybe she should actively attempt to meet more people from different houses. That sounded nice. But that wasn't her goal at the moment - though meeting new people certainly wouldn't be unwelcome. She was there to see and congratulate one specific first year who she didn't know extremely well but had hung out with on the train.

"Hello Ravenclaws," Hayden greeted the table as a whole, as she took a seat across from Kate. Luckily for her there had been an open spot so she didn't have to sit further away, surrounded by people she didn't know. Hayden had already eaten back at the Hufflepuff table so she wasn't too concerned about the food in front of her. That was also why she hadn't joined the Ravenclaws until so late into the feast. Anyway, she turned her attention now to the younger girl across from her.

"Hey," she said cheerfully. "Congrats on Ravenclaw."
