Anxieties aside, he was in much better spirits than he'd been in the past several months. The upcoming holiday and the present company had brightened his mood considerably!

He glanced at Rosalyn with a smile as they walked into the dining saloon, but he didn't let his eyes linger on her for too long lest they betray too much emotion. His smiled quickly faded as he saw the candles along the walls. To anyone else the candlelight might've been romantic, but to the man with an overwhelming fear of fire (made even worse since the accident in his class) it was a disaster waiting to happen! His hand automatically went for his wand, and he whispered to his date, "Certainly they've charmed everything to be fire resistant, right?"

Gaston wasn't really sure what he wanted to eat or, more accurately, if he wanted to eat. The events of the past few months had drastically affected his appetite, but he didn't want to worry Rosalyn. So he opted for a chicken wrap (one of the lighter options he saw) and a glass of tea punch. As he made his way to one of the empty tables, he said hello to the Ilvermorny students he passed (Jeremy, Samara, Evan, Manuela, Lachlan, and Zinnia). And was it just him or did that Ilvermorny boy (Lachlan) look a little too happy? The two Ilvermonry professors (Melanie and Duncan) and the girl with them (Valerie) got a nod in acknowledgement, though he didn't want to interrupt their conversation by saying hello out loud. Then he saw some of his Gryffindors (Ace and Olivia) and waved to them. "Hello, Mr. Salander, Miss Holden!" he said. "How's your evening going so far?"

Then another familiar face caught his attention. "Good evening ladies," he said, this time addressing Miss Sorin-Ward and her friend (Layla). "I hope you're enjoying yourselves."

Gaston eventually made his way to an empty table in the middle of the room, as far away from the candles as he could get. He pulled a chair out for Rosalyn before taking a seat himself and unfolding his napkin in his lap. Then he saw Tinka. those cupcakes she was handing out looked delicious! "Hello, Tinka," he said, waving to her. "Could we please have a couple of those?" But it looked like she was leaving now. Oh well, never mind. Maybe she'd come back later...

She'd go find a boy from her school later, who wasn't Maddox, and ask them to dance with her. Just as she set her glass back down, someone or something, placed a cupcake next to her.

!!!!!

OMG IT WAS A HOUSE ELF.

Layla couldn't help but squeal at the small creature and the cupcake she had given her. "Thank you!" She grinned and took a closer look at the house elf. Yup, they were pretty long descendants of the pukwedgies back home. But this house elf was truly adorable. Layla looked up at the sound of her voice, coming from a girl. Smiling, Layla waved at Mel and pulled out a chair for her. "Please do. Maybe it'll be more fun that way," the girl practically pulled Mel down on a chair to sit next to her. "Are you enjoying this formal so far, because I'm not," She made a face and sipped her drink more. And then a professor came by.

"Actually, this party id dull. Isn't there something we can do to make it more lively? After all the stories I've heard about this school, something bound to be it exciting," Layla shrugged a bit and ate another piece of her sushi.

Melbourne smiled as Layla said that it would be more fun if she could sit with her and then…she was sitting, well being pulled into a seat right next to the feisty brunette. ”oh please, lets make this more fun” fun and having things be more fun was always better than nothing right?

Voices…oh heeeeeeeeeey Head of House Marchand! Melbourne grinned up at Professor Newton’s beau and her current Head of House and smiled. ”Oh, I’m trying to Professor Marchand,” she smiled and even raised her glass at him in a salute to fun times – when he was out of earshot Mel’s voice dropped lower ”it’d be better if these were real” then absolutely havock could happen.

Laylay’s reaction to Tinka only made Melbourne grin. ”isn’t she aaaaaaabsolutely precious, I love the house elves here…last week I made some cookies for them but they didn’t really seem accustomed to that” she shrugged her shoulder her hair bouncing and nearly flipping as she did so. Layla wanted this to be more lively?

”I’m…having fun” she sounded different though as if she were trying to convince herself of the fun she was having. ”…honestly, I’m a little nervous? The whole I have a date to this thing and I don’t even know if its an actual date or if I’m here as a friend?” she shrugged and glanced around the room her eyes settling on Tenacius and Olivia once more. ”…what stories have your heard? Did you hear about the portal last year and the creepy monster that tried to eat people?....well, he actually ate our janitor but I mean he was old and probably bound to die sooner than later”…especially considering he did work at Hogwarts. RIP Flynn….your bones will forever rest in that hopefully forgotten portal of doom. With that the gryffindor lifted her glass and took a long sip from her straw.

Delicious.
