Mark was seated near the front of the Ravenclaw Table cheering and clapping for all students who go sorted into Ravneclaw. He watched his first god-sibling Catherine get sorted into his house and suddenly this idea of being some kind of mentor figure started swirling in his head. Her little sister was always more interested in every little thing he did but with Catherine in his house maybe he could connect with her a bit more too.

She had actually taken a seat right across from him, but before he could congratulate her personally Noah's named had been called next, which made sense. he was next alphabetically after her. So he clapped for him once he was sorted in Gryffindor.

He quickly turned his attention over to some of his other housemates. Smiling toward Nettie and acknowledging her with a small wave, he gave a nod to Drewett obviously, and a wave to Chloe as well. He was gonna talk with Catherine mostly now so he had to keep his attention toward her.

When he turned back around he just witnessed Noah giving Catherine a hug..When did he? Had he even gone over to his over table yet?

Mark just listened intently to their conversation about potential clubs. Sounded like this was his chance to chime in so he let out a bit of a gruff "ehem". Look here. Older Brother Mark Gunter could be your guide to the Clubs of Hogwarts.

It felt weird to be back in the castle after all that happened last year at Beauxbatons. After she was suspended and all. And it looked like Professor de Notresdame was still their Care of Magical Creatures professor. And Professor Schmoe was now their head of house. How interesting.

Still silent, Analiese was starting to get hungry. She hadn't eaten anything since breakfast. And she was also very tired. She had started being very tired lately; she had no idea why.

If shyness was a Ravenclaw trait, it certainly wasn’t a universal one. He looked around at all the older, presumably-wiser, definitely-knew-more-magic-than-he-did students and offered up what he intended to be a confident, Here I Am introduction.

“Hello.”

From the confused frown that appeared on his face, it was rather clear that his vocal chords hadn’t got the memo. Confidence. Assertiveness. Try again:

“HELLO.”

Ha, nailed it.

She must be so disappointed that he wasn't brave enough to be in Gryffindor with her! What would the rest of his family think when they found out? Nearly everybody in his family was in Gryffindor... well, except Grandma and a couple of his cousins.

He gave a shy wave "hello" to his new housemates a seat a little removed from the others, lest he intrude on something he wasn't meant to be a part of. It looked like everybody already knew each other. They probably wouldn't want to talk to a new kid like him... but he was here, just in case they did. The thought crossed his mind to pull one of his Star Wars books out of his bag just so he'd have somewhere to look that wouldn't accidentally be staring at another student... or worse, a professor because some of the people at the staff table looked really scary! But he could already hear his grandma's voice in the back of his mind, reprimanding him for reading at the table.

Besides, the headmaster's speech started before he even had time to unzip his bag. Get a good eyeful...? Heath wasn't sure he liked the sound of that, but as long as it was just cleaning and not fighting boggarts or some other scary monster, he'd survive. Blink, blink. Heath didn't know what to make of the new Ravenclaw Head of House's introduction. Was having Professor Schmoe as their Head of House supposed to be a bad thing? He seemed like one of the least scary professors to Heath! And if it was bad, why did the headmaster give him the job? Heath swallowed hard at the mention of the Forbidden Forest. He'd heard enough stories to know not to go in there, but... what exactly would Headmaster Trent do to them that would make them wish they'd been eaten?

After the speech, Heath was absolutely convinced of one thing. Headmaster Trent was weird... like, even weirder than him... but he wasn't sure yet if it was a good kind of weird or a bad kind.


Easily distracted, as his usual, Noah noticed a couple of newcomers to the table, and he couldn't help himself but to be just out there and socialize. They were awfully quiet, but perhaps they're just like Catherine wherein the company should be the one to initiate the conversation. They all chose to be quiet for some reason, but they don't look like they want to keep to themselves. So!

He started off with a rather...downcast member of the blue tribe. No really, what is up with their gloomy energy? Noah leaned forwards, stretched out his hand and gave the older girl (Analiese) a wave. He gave her a grin, and a quiet almost whispered, "Hi." Noah didn't want to scare her off.

And then there was a kid (Elias) about his age who took his own sweet time to gather his confidence as he squeezed in between older kids and made his presence known. Noah approves of it! Now, that's how things are done! He was a bit far down the table, but that didn't stop the Gryffindor from waving at him from where he sat and echoed his greetings. "HELLO!"

Then it went back to another quiet fellow. Really, do they have throat problems or...? Noah scooted a bit towards the boy (Heath) that was about his age by the way, and gave him a welcoming smile. "Hey there. New? I am. My name is Noah, first year Gryffindor." See, it wasn't that hard to make friends.

Before he could even go for a little bit of socializing, a loud clanging noise was heard, and they were all naturally drawn towards the man in the middle of the platform. He rose up from his chair which resembled a throne from the middle ages and started to talk. He must be the Headmaster. With keen eyes, he looked around the Great Hall which doesn't seem to be in disrepair and wondered what the Headmaster was talking about? And as if on cue, he went on to explain that it was the common rooms that needed cleaning. Noah looked at his twin, and wondered if this made all sense to her? Like...why would they allow the common rooms to be dirty when they knew students would be returning? Did...that made any sense? The little Gryffindor made a face as he acquainted himself with the new professors upfront noting their names and their positions and then wondered who the rest were. They ought to have nameplates next time, yeah? His eyes lingered on this Professor Shmoe, though. He's got no idea why the Headmaster has asked the whole Ravenclaw house to take care of him though. Students looking out for an adult...that's a rather interesting concept! And then, of course, the speech about the Forbidden Forest. Didn't mum and dad drilled it in their heads already? Especially dad, and giving him all the looks like he doesn't trust him at all. He wouldn't be surprised if Catherine does it too to him.

And so the Feast begins! All of a sudden the Great Hall smelled good and the food sure looked good. It was almost sparkling! Noah clapped his hands together and wiggled in his seat excitedly. He was all about the food! But before he could even reach for a dinner roll, his eyes wandered towards an older boy just across them, "MARK!" Noah beamed at his god-sibling and gave him a high five. "We finally made it to Hogwarts!" he said the obvious and gave him a good look, "And it's my first time seeing you in your school robes. Nice!" said the boy in a scarlet robe. He did stand out, but that's all good. He didn't mind being the different one. "Yeah, so, CLUBS." he finally picked a dinner roll and went on to fill his plate with a bit of everything just to prove to his sister that he's not the barbaric kind that she thinks he is. "Tell me all about it! Which are the fun, outdoorsy ones? That's for me. Indoorsy, quiet ones for this girl." he said subtly tilting his head towards his sister.
