Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight With his Sorting over, Elio could relax a little bit, sure, but he was still doing his best to appear pretty much unconcerned with what was going on around him. Actually, it wasn't really that difficult. There really was just so much happening around him, all these unfamiliar people in an unfamiliar setting, that most of Elio's energy went towards taking it all in. He just needed to keep his expression schooled and bam, sorted. Cool as a cucumber.
It wasn't just that he didn't want to appear nervous or anxious or whatever, but that he also didn't want to appear overawed or anything. Because he wasn't. He was cool. Ice cold. He had a handle on all this. Most importantly, he knew how to look after himself.
Now seated at the Slytherin table, Elio had gone on watching the Sorting, but he didn't actually say anything for a while after sitting down. He happened to be sat near to where another first year had joined the table. Sydney, her name was. Elio turned to look at the her and a bunch of older students once he heard her give her name, and figured now was as good a time as any to throw his own into the mix as well. "I'm Elio."
