Flustered was a great way to put it, Islay Moreau always seemed to be in a constant flux of being flustered. It wasn’t that she had meant to be that way, the bubbly thing…human, had always been apprehensive at best when it came to really showing her emotions. It was something that she had been working on lately. Andrews kiss sure, it had made her flustered but it was also nice, she couldn’t help but grin back at him when he said that he would make Gryffindor interesting. ”Oh come on Preston – gryffindor has always been interesting…your just a plus” she grinned, his little shoulder tap didn’t even make her feel at all uncomfortable or ticklish like it would have with some people.

Her eyes dropped down toward Noah who was…blushing? Why was he blushing? Had something happened other than --- oh, oh he had seen the kiss. Her eyes flicked from him to Drew for a moment. ”we um…Drew and I were housemates back in Beau,” was what Islays words said but her eyes were saying something else, maybe something like I’ll talk to you later. Islay gave the new girl Lexie a kind smile as she arrived.

”Welcome to Gryffindor,” she smiled really it was nice having a bit of a distraction from the constant record scratching freeze framing her brain was doing right now. Words, what were words – how was she going to human today? HOW? Congrat—oh the congratuplogy hug. ”obviously, one amazing hug coming up!” Islay grinned as she lowered herself back to the bench, turning her gaze toward Drew for a moment, ”you should sit with us – you know we won’t bite…” she said the words slowly even quirking her eyebrow up at him as she spoke as if challenging her former housemate to sit with them.

”d’ya want the hug in the dorm later or now?” she asked grinning at him, it was as she was grinning tat she noticed the wink from Curtis…oh, okay she didn’t know that would happen – had he seen the kiss? Was that wink because of that? what was going on, the normally moderately shy and quiet Gryffindor was getting attention and it was – it was…intense. ”have a nice night,” she called out to the retreating slytherin because well, she was friendly?

Charlie, gosh she was adorable. ”I – it was…intense at times? I had a job, my first one even.” she grinned at her, the little girls smile. Yeah – sure, she knew Charlie had seen the kiss. AAAAND with that she mouthed to the girl, ”strange night right?” and shook her head.

Even stranger now as she witnessed the blinking – was Phoebe trying to wink? Oh, hooooooney that was adorable. She hadn’t even properly greeted Naya yet, ”hi Naya – how are you doing?” Islay asked with a grin as she looked at the students as they arrived. Oh, this Trent kid seemed to be keeping beet pretty nicely. ”what song is in your head?” she asked him with a grin, ”I don’t think I ever properly introduced myself – I’m Islay. Islay Moreau” she smiled and then turned to grin at Cole and – oh what was going on with Cole and Drew? this was going to end badly right? Right? ”oh – yeah…didn’t need to use anyone as a ladder either,” she joked to Cole with a grin. ”did you have a nice summer? Get any good ice cream?” she asked still beaming as she flicked her eyes at Drew one more time.

Oh look a new kid! The young boy got a grin as he came to the table. ”w-welcome to Gryffindor” she smiled – and now she was giving Lucas an almost thankful look ”no worries Lucas, you have a nice summer?” she asked as she smiled softly.

OH THANK YOU FOR FOOD, food the savior of the night.

When she heard Drew commenting about the weather she just nodded, ”right – but I mean…we can swim in the lake here…” she paused, and shrugged, ”the grindylows might get you but you can swim – its…sort of possible?” she grinned at him. Islay nodded whens he heard Stella’s answer – ”well, I’ll have to look out for her – if you want we can set up a girls night in the dorms? Face masks, ice cream…and everything we can think of?” she offered with a grin as she took a bite of the potatoes, it was then that she looked over to the first year Lexie ”try the potatoes everyone talks about them being divine” the older girl smiled as she seemed to be settling in among the chaos of the house.
