After the long train ride and the invisible (for him) carriage ride up to the castle, Mason was glad to be inside. He was pretty tired and couldn't wait till he could sleep in his bed.

But first the feast and sorting. He was particularly curious about the sorting of Daisy. A first year he had met on the train. Perhaps she'd become a newest addition to the claw family.

He sat down at the end of the table as he had been ..probably be...the first to arrive. He was pretty excited about the upcoming year. He was positive that his n.e.w.t learning schedule was something that was going to keep his stress level low, he only needed to match it with his classes and free time. But that was something for later. He was also pretty excited about the fact that Dora was going to help him out with his defensive magic. Anyone who had a Auror and ex Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher as an uncle was bound to be pretty good to learn from right?

Anyways, he debated whether he should continue reading his book he had been reading on the train or actually talk to his House mates.
