Skylar's gaze shifted between the sorting stand and Vivian and Maxton with his own food. And there was Patrick! A boy she'd recalled from the chance meeting at the fountain. "Patrick! Welcome to Slytherin!" She grinned at the younger boy, wondering if he remembered her (from her regular street clothes as opposed to the uniform she was now wearing). Her gaze wondered around the hall for Dahlia and frowned when she saw the girl making her way over to the Hufflepuff table. She'd have to go say hi later and tell Hattie to look out for her.
There was Felicity again with a very loud 'genius' comment about Maxton bringing his own food. "Liss!" She smiled warmly at the dormie when she exhaustedly rested her head on Vivian's shoulder.
And then there was the Baron, who completely overlooked herself; what now that it was a fresh term with new snakes and others to overshadow herself, she was invisible? Well fine then, Mr Slytherin House Ghost. It was probably because she told him off for his dislike of Valentine's Day. She wasn't going to be rude to him though, even if she REALLY secretly wanted to. "Sir Baron. How was your summer?" Actually that was probably rude and insensitive, since ghosts couldn't enjoy summer the way humans could. Also, was Kei CRYING about the ghost? The fifth year's heart just about melted; she didn't know him all too well, just one meeting over the summer, but the fact that he had traveled for a year instead of starting Hogwarts last year, well, she wasn't sure what to make about him. But he was being consoled already, so she would just keep a watchful eye from a distance.
Another new student (Ryder) joined them, Skylar sending him a welcoming grin and wave.
Oops? Sorry Vivian and hey at least we didn't include the middle name. Well at least she got the blond's full attention; also she was doing great at this welcoming thing and Skylar was feeling so very proud of her best friend right now. Like, she could just cry tears of happiness, except not because even though her tears would be joyous, they didn't need two crying students at the Slytherin table. "It's always nice to see me," she said cheekily. Also, oh, oh, okay, so maybe she was being very much overprotective, but best friend duties. "I see that!" And for that, she wrapped her arms around her in a hug, because one could never get enough hugs. Plus she like really missed riding the train with her. Can she like not hide out every train term for the next five rides that they had remaining? Cause Sky would be very sad about that.
Aww, Abey was there, but no Junia just yet; Abey was like the honorary Slytherin, Skylar decided ... he was just about as good as one. Sky sent him a smile and wave. Surely seeing Junia's roommates would be of some comfort to the boy.
Another new snake (Philippa), who was just ... did she just? She was just precious and very pretty and lovely, especially for a first year, Sky decided. Was she that ladylike as a first year? Probably not. Actually, even though she wore dresses and heels now, she still didn't even feel so ladylike and was always a nervous wreck thinking she'd fall flat and on her face and just having to walk super slowly. Brent could attest to that from the cruise party last year. "Hi Philippa. Welcome to Slytherin! I'm Skylar. Skylar Diggory."
And there was the fourth member of their dorm squad; Returning Junia's wink with a smile of her own, Sky was almost sure that the Botros fifth year was feeling something akin to how she was feeling. Maybe. But Vivian was simply lovely and sweet, as all her roommates were, and despite knowing how much time this new role might take away from their dorm parties, she was still proud of her.
Finally having a moment after giving welcoming smiles all around at their new additions and friendly greetings to the returning snakes, Sky felt her gaze wonder up to the staff table to see for the new faces. Huh, there were no new faces, but River Reed was sitting down near the end now, which meant what? He was teaching .... was he still their healer as well? And Mr Kennedy had moved seats as well. No Berkovich, or whatever her name was, something to which Skylar was actually not surprised about. She hadn't had an Astronomy professor last longer than a year, so why would she have expected last year's professor to be any different. But wait.... Runes was at the end, which wasn't because the Headmistress taught that, so then Astronomy and ... OHNO. No. No. No.
Please Headmistress, get on with your speech, so we can get some food in our stomachs.
