| | |  Ravenclaw Table
 For those who belong in Ravenclaw House, in the middle of the Great Hall is where your table awaits. Blue banners containing an embroidered bronze eagle float above the polished table in honour of the wise Rowena Ravenclaw. Already placed on the tables are silver plates with accompanying cutlery and goblets. All that is missing right now are the mountains of food and pitchers containing your favourite beverages.
Though your stomach might be growling as you take a seat on one of the long benches next to the table, it is important to not get hangry -- gnawing your arm away or jabbing your fork repeatedly on the surface of the table will do no good whatsoever. Give everyone some time to get settled in and wait for Headmaster Winterbottom to deliver his speech. Keep yourself preoccupied by catching up with your fellow housemates until it is time to sink your teeth into the hearty and delicious meal prepared by the house-elves.

Krittika clung to Athena’s hand as she let herself be half tugged towards the Ravenclaw table. She didn’t know where Thena got all that energy from but she was willing to be that her friend had been up extra early completing those moments of fencing practise she enjoyed a little too much; that practise had to have had a huge influence. “I think I lost my brother,’’ Kritti commented mildly as she seated herself at the table. “We lost yours too apparently. Bet we’ll see them a mile off though,’’ the sixth year added, grinning so that her dimples showed. Both Kartick and Dio were rather tall, after all.
And where was Justus? Kritti mentally shrugged. Everyone would find her soon enough. As it was, she was simply going to chill out here, and perhaps for a lot of the term since there were no major exams on the horizon for her. |

Dio was walking with his youngest sister, Hermione, who was nervous about their new appearance. She had gone through a new look that represented her true self. He was proud of her. So big brother was on the job of looking out for her on the train and everything... at least until she spotted Thena. He watched Hermy immediately run over to where Thena and Kritti were sitting. Immediately, Hermy seemed more interested in having a secret talk requiring Thena's full attention instead. Oh well.
Dio smiled a bit more before he walked over to the other side of Kritti. She seemed to be without her other half. Who he could've sworn was sitting with the Hufflepuffs, for some reason. "Hey, long time no see." Did she and Justus perhaps... take a break? "You're not with your Wolf boy today?" Or ever. Why was he so interested? Anyways, a lovely feast was awaiting them.

Iris hadn't hit her reading quota on the train nor the carriage but that hadn't been as disappointing as she anticipated it being considering she had been in great company the entire time. It really was nice that JT let her ramble on and on about the books she was reading and indulging her as she shared her newly discovered interest in fabulism and Cli-Fi - the latter of course sending her off on a tangent about magical pollution and specifically the possible effects of prolonged spell influence or enchanted objects on ecosystems - but he was a fantastic listener. Curious to how he was faring, the second year leaned around where she sat to try and peek at the Slytherin table to see how he was faring before settling in proper aaaaaaaaaaand pulling her copy of The Marrow Thieves from her robe sleeve. The blonde glanced over at the older students (herself also technically missing a brother since she hadn't spent time with him since saying bye to mum and dad at King's Cross) but quickly decided that the words on the pages in front of her were more captivating and resumed reading while tucking her bookmark against her temple with temple of her glasses.
Wolf boy though...was there a werewolf here among her peers?! ...and was his name Jacob?

"HURRY UUUUUUUUUUUP!"
The call came, perhaps predictably enough, from Achilles Zacharias, his hands cupped around his mouth for the extra volume, as if he really needed it. He'd boosted himself up for good measure too, so that he was half standing on the stone floor, and half kneeling on the bench, though it wasn't because he thought the extra elevation would make any sort of difference. That was more because he just couldn't bear sitting for much longer, had to do something to stop the buzzing in his limbs, and at least give the illusion of action.
Was it wise to go shouting over the sorting? Probably not, but the brain-to-action pipeline was lightning fast, and impulse control was a little thin on the ground for a boy who had spent the entire day confined to various places (train!!! carriages!!! house table!!!) and could not bear to be contained much longer.
His demands made, and acting like he'd done nothing more untoward than tap pointedly at his watch, Killy flopped back into his seat and picked up the knife and fork he'd just abandoned, resuming the act of his makeshift drum solo. It just wasn't the same, but he made do with the nearest plate, goblets, tureens, and water pitchers. Clink-clatter-clack-da-dink-dink-dink.
Killy hated feasts. Not because they were fundamentally unpleasant or anything; actually, he liked mixing with others and talking their ears off. It was the need to sit and stay put and eat whole entire meals in one go, none of which he'd ever been very good at. The start of term was the worst, with the added torture of the sorting. Why couldn't it be like a buffet? A party? Sit-down dinners were soooooo anti-Achilles.
Because his eyes were just as restless as the rest of him, he found himself glancing around, still clatter-clink-a-dink-dink-clacking, and noted a kid sitting just a short way down the table with a book.
"Hey you girl," Killy called, without breaking stride as his eyes flicked between the makeshift instrument and his housemate. Multi-tasking, see. "Whatcha reading?" Not that it mattered. Killy would be unlikely to know it, could in fact see the cover and knew this for sure. The point was that the more he did - drum, fidget, talk, foot-tap (for the hi-hat and bass drum, duh) - the more likely he would be to keep his seat. Still not terribly likely, mind.
Perhaps it was time to bow to the inevitable. Perhaps it was past time he made like some of the super unsociable kids at this school and went illegally roaming the school instead of attending feasts. Perhaps that would be better for everyone. Kidding! What was better for everyone else didn't really occur to him.
CLATTER-CLATTER-DINK-A-DINK-DINK-CRASH.
