She was on her way over to hug her before she was being talked to by another person. Someone she didnt know. There were so many people in here!


Hearing that oh so familiar name, Marietta let out a high pitched squeal and practically tackled the other girl. "MARIELLE! WE'RE GRYFFINKITTIES!" She laughed with a giant smile on her face. Mari hoped she hadn't injured the girl too much when she had... hugged her. That probably wasn't a good way to start off a new friendship.

SPOILER!!: Airey

"Bi-bi-bi-bi-bi-bidi-bidi-bidi-bidi," he stammered while trying to dance and wiggle his way out of the first year's grip.

NOT. READY. TO. THINK. ABOUT. NO. RUN. AWAY. FROM. EMOTIONS. ABORT! ABORT!

Was she off his person yet?

......

OH LOOK! THE HEAD BOY! YES. DIVERGE ATTENTION THAT WAY!

Terrified to look down and see whether or not Miss Lee was still ... touching him... the Astronomy professor cleared his throat and tried to get through these next words without his voice cracking like some prepubescent boy.

"GOOD EVENING, GRYFFINDORS! WELCOME AND WELCOME BACK!" he announced, NOT doing so well at the not cracking. "I am Professor Flamsteed, but you may also call me Professor Airey if you prefer, and I have the honor of serving as your Head of House." Which were words directed mostly towards first years and those transferred students. "Before I dive into a few House announcements, a word from our Head Boy, Mr. Adair," he concluded with some clumsy applause.

Take it away, Mr. Adair.


Marietta wondered what was wrong with the head of the house. It was just a hug but he seemed uncomfortable which had just made Marietta hug him a little harder... though she did let him go when he started to make a weird noise with his mouth. So... maybe Daddy Lion wasn't exactly fond of hugs...? OR MAYBE HE JUST WASN'T FOND OF HER?! Frowning, Marietta stepped away from the professor and pouted. Besides, he seemed to have something to say anyways.

Though she didn't know why he didn't like her.

And this little girl's smile looked like it could take up an entire galaxy on it's own. Slightly impressive. But mostly creepy. But somehow incredibly endearing???

"Oh for sure! Cozier too, definitely beats the dungeons that Slytherin has to live in." Just saying. But again, maybe he was biased. Just a little bit. He tried to emphasize the sentiment with head nodding and a goofy sort of smile, but then she went on to address him as "Mister Ruler Heady Boy, Sir" and he could feel the pink creeping up on his cheeks. He wasn't even going to try to correct her. And now she wanted to be friends? Oh. Well uh, that was nice actually. Amur would probably like to hear this too. "Oh uh, yeah, sure of course," he gave her a grin as he held out his hand. Y'know for like a hand shake or something? "Nice to meet ya Mari, and y'know, you can call me just Zander... Since we're friends now." Because although Mister Ruler Head Boy Sir had a nice and incredibly embarrassing ring to it, it seemed like quite a mouthful.


.......



Wait, what?

HE WAS BEING PUT ON THE SPOT???

Already? Merlin. At least let the boy have some time to roast a marshmallow or something, Professor. Where was the justice? The courtesy? The COMFORT? Had the man no respect?

Ahem. The Gryffindor tried his very best to keep from going pink in the face because he had practiced this moment in the mirror. Countless times, actually. So when the Astronomy Professor turned the theoretical mic over to him, Zander just stood there and smiled all goofy for a few seconds. Wait. Oh. His turn. Right. Yeah. Hi Gryffindor. Hi. "Oh, that's me, isn't it?" SMOOTH, ADAIR.

"I mean, hi everyone. I don't know if I've gotten the chance to talk to all of you yet, but if you don't know me... I'm Zander Adair and this is my third year as a Prefect for Gryffindor and my first as Head Boy." Better... Just like in the mirror. "So uh, if you've got any questions, need someone to talk to... I'll be around, so just come find me, yeah?" Wait. He was supposed to say something about spirit right? Right. Riiiight. Just like he had practiced in the mirror. "Gryffindor has a really great reputation. We've been winning the house cup for a bit now and we've got to keep that alive. So let's all stick together and show Hogwarts what lions are made of!!"

Oh also one more thing. Sorry, Professor he was almost done. But he was also feeling loads better about this too, was it showing? "Keep an eye on the announcement board for some fun Gryffindor events coming soon," a la Puck and Zander. "And ROAR, ROAR GRYFFINDOR!!" Okay back to you, Sir.

Did he do okay? Were people convinced yet? Should he take his fist down from the air? Yeah. Maybe. Okay. Cool. [/COLOR]


THERE WERE DUNGEONS?! Mari had been almost a hundred percent sure that there wasn't really a dungeon here in the castle. She thought it was just a story to scare the younger kids like stories about the Erumpents under one's bed if they were bad. It was definitely a good thing that Gryffindor was in a tower then. So much better than some creepy dungeon. "Why are Slytherins in the dungeon?" Because there was no way that they enjoyed it there. Dungeons were dark and gross and scary.

Instead of taking his hand, Marietta just gave him a giant hug. "Thanks Mister Ruler Head Boy Zander Sir," Marietta said with a smile. Because they were friends now and she had to include his first name into the title.

AND OOOOH. Mister Ruler Head Boy Zander Sir had something important to say. She supposed this was like some royal decree or something... since this was a castle and he was the KING of like... the student body. If Marietta were to be completely honest, she barely heard what the boy said because before she was too busy focusing on the other things in the room... like the yummy food smells.


SPOILER!!: Cinna

Yes that topped the cake there but if nutmeg was really her name Cinna wasn't going to let any one make fun if this little cute little first year's name. "Yes, that's my real name You can call me Cinna." She turned to another first year Ava


"If your name is Cinnamon then my name is Nutmeg!" Because it was cute right? They could have cute names for each other? Wasn't that a friendship thing? "Or if you want I could be Paprika?!" Mari wouldn't mind either of those names if it meant being friends with the older girl. Besides, Cinnamon (if that was really her name) could teach her new things about the school and Marietta was pretty much desperate for friends.
