She still didn’t feel like she belonged here anyway not even after two whole years. She’d much rather have stayed a muggle but she promised her family as well as herself that she’d stay around and so here she was proving something. What it was she was proving she didn’t know.

During the journey she had managed to find Eden on the train and spent the majority of the time with her. She was equally as mopey and although it probably would have done her fellow Ravenclaw good to have someone much more cheerful and upbeat around, Layla knew that she was one of her closest friends and any company was better than no company wasn’t it? She’d followed her out of the train and towards the carriage where they just sort of.. talked about things. And once the Thestral drawn parade which quite frankly Layla found over the top was complete she hung back a few minutes to look for someone she hadn’t been able to find on the train.

With no luck having found the little first year she’d promised her family she’d look out for she headed back into the Great Hall deciding that she’d just go sit with her at whatever table she was at after she’d been sorted. For now she headed straight towards the Ravenclaw table which she was glad to see was mostly empty. She flopped down in that seat next to Eden and nudged her with her elbow.

“How are you holdin’ up, drama queen?” she asked in an attempt to somehow cheer her up in a joking sort of way although Layla really wasn’t very successful in that matter. Eden seemed to show emotions more than Layla did, the blonde was very good at keeping them to herself. She offered a ‘sort of’ smile too as a back up.

"Good evening dear, I trust you had an enjoyable summer?"

Gaze switching to look over at the two seventh year girls (Eden & Lottie) sitting side by side and looking anything but cheerful and upbeat Helena raised a brow and asked them “Why the glum faces girls? Tonight is supposed to be a happy beginning to the new school year.”

A year later, Evie still felt nervous and excited for the new year, eager to reunite with her old friends, meet new ones, and still wishing a certain Durmstrang boy was there. Some things didn't change.

Still, she was excited. And hungry.

Evie made her way down the table and plopped in front of Eden, who she then realized was not too happy... She had a few suspicions of why, but she didn't bother her since Layla was comforting her at the moment. Instead, Evangeline (who, by the way had NEW HAIR, thanks to her mother's skills and about 10 galleons of hair potions) peered up at the staff table to note any changes. She did see a new face -- a new YOUNG and kind of attractive face -- in the old DADA professor's seat. That would be interesting. It also kinda seemed like there was a spot missing... Oh well. Where was the food?

It was a weird feeling to shake.

Having lost Puck as he disembarked the train, he'd tried to find Hayley, Noel and Cutty too but they'd all seemed to have disappeared, so he'd made his way up to the castle in silence. Turning to face the Ravenclaw table - at least the cutlery was wasn't actually plastic and baby proof - Benzi made his way over and towards the small group of girls already sat there looking roughly his age. Or, er, small group of girls and a couple of piggy backers. Who looked vaguely familiar.

... This weird nagging feeling that he knew people was going to get very old, very fast.

He sat by the pretty girl (Evie) and was about to introduce himself when he noticed none other than Crazy Eyes seated directly across from him. Sad looking Crazy Eyes being comforted by the blonde next to her. Of course she'd be in Ravenclaw. Of course.

"Hey there," he grinned to the table in general but mostly to the pretty girl. Because Crazy Eyes was crazy, and he was in a weird enough mood as it is. Also because Piggy Back Couple were making his brain hurt.

Brushing a strain of hair away from his eyes Kyroh took a seat down at his table and glanced around. Folding his hands on the table he rested his chin on them and glanced around thoughtfully.

Eden. And Abby and Tia and Evie. Bunch of people he sorta knew. But saying hi right now felt like a lot of energy. And for some strange reason he didn't have any of it.

If you come by the table by the entrance to the Great Hall now, you can get a pet rock that comes with a care manual and rock candy!" She thought that some of the Ravenclaws might enjoy a pet rock. After handing out a few flyers and dropping some onto the table, she moved on to find another table to advertise the pet pet rock adoption fair at.


Eden actually cracked a smile in Layla's direction at that...little remark. "Drama queen? Right." She rolled her eyes and decided to stick close to her friend. Layla probably felt pretty blue, too, yeah? She seemed a bit more down than usual...she HAD hung out with Layla and Bambi over the summer a few times, too, and...she loved seeing Layla so happy.

"I guess I am a drama queen. Oh well--what does that make YOU?" she asked with a gentle nudge.

Ahh, the Grey Lady...Eden just sighed and shrugged. "Just feeling a bit sad tonight, ma'am." She said. "I won't be sad the whole term--don't worry--" because Eden was SO ready to conquer the her seventh year...the finale year O_O

The brunette HAD to smile when Evie showed up, though. Eden waved and smiled at her...Evie was so prettttty. It made Eden happy, heh. She just blew her a kiss because she seemed a bit preoccupied--and plus, Sophie Brown had shown up, and Eden was under the impression that best friends came before snog buddies, right? Right.

....and then.....

What.

Benzi?

The boy she'd help pick out an ink color for? The one who'd bought her PRETTY ink for Phoenix? She just blinked a lot in his general direction and waved because...that was the polite thing to do, wasn't it? And then she heard the phrase 'Cutty's friend,' and Eden's gazed glanced over at the Slytherin table--but before her eyes could find Cutty, she turned back to her own.

Nope.

She would NOT cry right now. Not about Cutty, least of all.

Eden waved at little Kyroh who wasn't little at all anymore, and suddenly she felt a weird...tug in her stomach. Gosh. Kyroh looked...so....grown up. MERLIN. WHY WERE THE CUTE ONES ALLOWED TO GROW UP? Eden felt like..ugh. UGH. Had EDEN grown up suddenly one summer? Maybe, she couldn't remember!

And was she surprised that Penelope had announced there was a PET ROCK adoption. Of course not. Heh. But Eden would sure be checking that OUT okay?
