Gaston wasn't sure what to make of pep rallies, to be honest. They didn't have them during his time at Beauxbatons (and even if they had, he was too shy to attend!), and he'd been too sad and outraged at the time to enjoy the pep rally for the final round of the IMPS competition a few years ago. This time around, he was all smiles as he appeared at the food buffet, wearing a simple red t-shirt under a black flannel with his gold lion pin affixed to the collar. He wanted to show house pride for his Lions without wearing a lot of bright, flashy colors that would make him stand out.

He spotted Ronan and Skylar on his way to grab a plate and beamed at the pair. "Hello, Mr. Carter, Miss Diggory," he greeted. Jessa and Emmalyn also received a warm smile from Gaston. "Hello, ladies!" After looking over the menus for a minute, he loaded his plate with some chicken wings, garlic bread, a couple of quiche bites, and a blue raspberry jelly for dessert. There was no way he'd eat that much, but he thought it only fair to sample at least one dish from each table. He picked up a hot chocolate and took a small sip. Mmm... just the right blend of sweet and spicy!

As he turned away to find a seat, he noticed Headmistress Hawthorne. "Hello, Regina," he said, greeting her with a smile and polite nod. "Have you tried the hot chocolate? It's delicious."

FOOD! That was the only thing on Georg's mind right now. After all, a growing boy's got to eat, right? The green and silver-clad third year made a beeline for the buffet as fast as his legs could carry him, occasionally looking back to make sure he didn't knock anybody down in the process. Sorry, people!

He only slowed down when he saw the headmistress nearby. "Hello, Headmistress Hawthorne," he greeted, putting on his politest smile. Everybody else got a wave and a mumbled, "Hi, everybody" by way of a greeting. Not that he meant to be antisocial... he just felt shy talking to the older students, and almost everybody here was older than him.

Anyway, now that that was over, he could get back to more important matters... like deciding what food to try first. He frowned. Aw, man! Slytheirn got the wooooorst menu! Everything looked like those fancy finger foods Aunt Kati served at her boring parties, and there were way too many fruit and vegetable dishes. The only thing that interested him there was the key lime pie. After helping himself to a big slice, he made his rounds to the other tables, picking up some chicken wings, a macaroni and cheese cup, some chips and dip, a slice of red velvet cake, a hot butterbeer, and an ube doughnut. He had no idea what an ube was, but it was a doughnut so it had to be good!

Now he just had to find a place to sit...
