 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
When Caes was declared a Slytherin, Aria immediately leapt up onto the bench she had been sitting on, stuck two fingers in her mouth and whistled quite loudly. There was even applause to accompany that. Yes, Ms. McLeod was making a spectacle of herself on her brother’s account. It was only when Caes arrived at the Table did she carefully climb down from the bench. #SorryNotSorry, Headmaster Kazmi, for the disruption.
“I sort of knew you’d be a Slytherin,’’ Aria remarked brightly. “And I am VERY happy to be proven right.” Seated once again, her fingers merrily drummed away on the Table. “Yes. It gets boring when there are lots and lots of Sortees. Needless to say this year has been the best since mine.” Can you guess why, brother dearest? “Oh, the food more than makes up for the Sorting Ceremony. You’re going to have quite the time sinking your teeth into all the morsels.”
It was only now that Aria properly paid any attention to other Slytherins. “Hello, Bella! It was the best summer everrr.” That was putting it all mildly. “And you? Had any more of those Gobstones training with professionals?” Her eyes swept to Caes when he was asked if he was new. Aria really tried to hold her tongue. Alas, this was not to be. “He is, Bella! This is my brother.” Umm. At least you get to tell Bella your name, Caes. |
