Time went by very slowly when you were counting every second. Christine looked up at the staff table, and rolled her eyes. Their just sitting around chatting she thought to herself. Can't they just end the feast so I can leave. Christine fidgeted in her seat. This had to be the longest Welcoming Feast in the history of all welcoming feast.
As Christine began tapping her foot on the floor again, she heard someone say hi to her. She looked over to the girl. Hey she said with a little entusiasm in her voice and a half-harted smiled on her face.
Ossia wasn't sure whether to be amused or sympathetic. The girl's opinion of the Welcoming Feast matched her's on the previous two years perfectly. The Feast always seemed to stretch three times as long as needed and it was full of just buzzing noises and the sound of people eating. Disgusting and potentially isolating.
"I'm Ossia. Third year, you?"
She bit her lip nervously. Ossia had the sneaking suspicion that this girl
was in her year, so she
should know her.
Note to self she thought wryly
No more sneaking books to meals.
