The whole concept of dating was entirely too amusing to her. "Well, they sound friendly enough. Haven't met Ravenclaw's prefects though." That seemd a bit intimidating. Mariel wondered if they'd be so friendly to offer help with homework or - groan - offer dating advice. "NO!" Bree responded immediately. "I don't date. Boys are just, you know, boys. They aren't boyfriends or friends or anything..." she paused "...yet." she finished almost to herself. After meeting Raiden she'd realized that perhaps boys weren't so plague-ridden as had been presented to her before.
"Well maybe you'll get lucky and yours won't offer you dating advice," she joked. She was calmer now. The argument seemed to have died down. Quote:

"Nice to meet you, Bree!" he said brightly. His attention then diverted to Kingston Wendleworth, and he took his hand back from Bree so as to not bother Daphne Hopton with his arm's presence. His smile faded a bit, and he looked unsurely down the table to where Cale and Anna were talking to that Jason guy. "I'm alright, just a little con-"
And then that Jason guy... had somehow heard Raiden's soft-spoken words from all the way over there! How had he done that? Did he have some sort of magical hearing aid that he could turn up so as to hear everyone talking? Raiden's jaw dropped at the boy's sharp words. He claimed that he treated his friends and family with respect, but... he had just met Raiden and Bree and Daphne Hopton, and he was being really rude to them... And silly little Raiden let that thought out.
"But... you're not being nice to people you've just met," he said softly, wondering if the older boy's super-hearing would pick it up. "Even if you're nice to your friends and family, that doesn't mean you're not being mean to us... you were glaring at Bree, and you weren't being polite to Daphne Hopton...and you were short with Kingston Wendleworth, too."
And then Daphne Hopton had her hand on his shoulder and was speaking... Intimidated? Didn't that word mean he was sort of... frightened of the older boy? Raiden was irked by him, for sure, especially now... but frightened? He didn't seem all that scary.
"Intimidated?" he whispered, his words barely audible. "That might not be the right word, Daphne Hopton... Doesn't intimidated mean he's sort of frightening me? I'm not afraid of him..." This boy rather seemed to like surnames. Bree decided to offer hers too. "Also...also my surname is Finchley. I'm Bree Finchley." she said slowly. She didn't have a chance to shake his offered hand because he immediately had to withdraw it to talk to Kingston Wendleworth. Bree was intrigued by his upper-class airs that seemed so like Daphne's.
She wasn't as refined herself. Just an average middle-class girl. Schooled on state funds. Her brother probably knew many people like Kingston now, seeing as he went to Cambridge. Without her. Whenever he came back he'd seemed slightly different. Sometimes she felt like he kept playing musical chairs with all of the people who looked like him but were very different personality-wise. She frowned. Quote:
Originally Posted by Lissy Longbottom Cale had had enough of this. What in the name of Merlin was going on in the world? Everyone was arguing with each other and accusing the others of being rude and now there was a food fight? GAHHHHH! He couldn't take it! Was it that hard to be nice to people? Come on, this was getting ridiculous!
"Alright, enough, ALL OF YOU!" he exclaimed, standing up and glaring down at everyone in the general area. "From what I've just witnessed within the past few minutes, I have to say I'm completely apalled. It's just plain rude to gossip about people in front of their faces, and all this arguing here is pointless and isn't getting anyone anywhere, it's just making the situation worse. If you've come here just to cause drama you can go back to your own tables," he addressed the people who were not Gryffindors. "And for those of you stuck at this table here--one more rude or sarcastic comment out of any of you and I'm getting a professor faster than you can blink." he told them.
And he had heard rumours that he wasn't a tough prefect. HA.
He sat down with a sigh and turned to Daphne, Jason, and Bree. "Whatever started this whole fight was, as already mentioned, probably a complete misunderstanding. However, this is no reason to continue the fight once it's started. Explain it was a misunderstanding, and that should be the end of it. We're all in the same house and we all have to try and get along with each other. If everyone is being nice to each other, I see no reason to be rude or impolite in return, right?" he asked. "One thing you have to understand about me is that I detest rudeness with a passion. And I won't stand to have any of it in Gryffindor. Ok? I really don't like yelling like that but...if we're already all fighting on the first day of term, and we haven't even started classes, how can we possibly make it through the year without killing each other?" he asked, frowning and wrinkling his eyebrows. ooc: Ok, that was a little harsh, but you get my point, right? Whether it's part of your character's personality or not, there is just no excuse for being plain out rude and arguing like that. Kay thanks :]
Then she jumped again as Cale spoke up, yelling for the entire table to hear. She could feel the burning shame on her cheeks. She hadn't meant to 'cause such a fuss. Usually she wasn't like this. The entire day had consisted of her not behaving as she usually would. This school was bringing out the worst in her on the very first day.
Perhaps just avoiding Jason from now on and sticking with those she already knew would keep her out of trouble. She felt like going to bed now, her hunger entirely forgotten. She was exhausted from the excitement of the day. She nibbled quietly at her pork trying not to draw any attention. |

He kept his foot sitting over it so that she couldn't see it, but he didn't want to crush it either. Oh! Good cover! He wanted to tell Jason, but that would blow his cover. "Yup. We were discussing gift ideas," he explained. To make it more believeable, he WOULD have added in an example of a gift, but all he could think of right now were scented candles, which was weird. So he just kept his mouth shut. Anna blinked and wrinkled her eyebrows as Cale proceeded to have one of his infamous clumsy moments. What on Earth was getting so antsy over? Hmm...guess Jason's grandparent's anniversary gift is a top secret surprise or something.
Anna shrugged it off and sat down next to Cale. "Oh, well that's nice of you all to help Jason with gift ideas," Anna replied. "I'll try to come up with something myself." Quote:

"Hmm...I don't know, scented candles or something?" Anna said with a laugh. Where had that thought come from? That was weird. "Just kidding, Jason. I'm really no good with anniversary gifts. My parents were divorced for a large part of my early childhood. Maybe an engraved necklace? Those are always pretty." Quote:

Three Gryffindors discussing someone's grandparent's anniversary gift? Now all three seemed to be up to something.

Jason just wants to get the perfect gift, right Jason?" he asked.

At least the ones I've met," she added, rolling her eyes and still grinning, thinking of several strange encounters she had over the past month.
She covered a very large yawn with her hand as she looked over at the Ravenclaw table. "I should probably get back to my table. I hear the Headmistress is supposed to make a speech and then hopefully I can get to bed. I feel like I haven't slept in days." The excitement of the day was finally starting to take it's toll on Mariel. She looked at Bree and gave her a little grin before getting up from the table. "Maybe I'll see you in class?"

"Yeah, frequently," Bree agreed. "They can't seem to get anything." she added.
"Oh, is she?" Bree said feigning interest. Really, bedtime was all that mattered to her now. "Me too. All I want to see right now is my pillow." she said tiredly. If the Head didn't speak up soon she might just nod off here. And probably fall into the pumpkin stain, or her plate, or Daphne. "Yeah, see you," she said as Mariel left. |

She reached for some dessert, she really wanted to try them all since they were all different from muggles' food. "What do you think is the biggest different from the muggle world and this?" She asked, now turned to Maggie again. "Erica! Yeaah we're in the same house!! Oh god I'm so happy!" Lizzie couldn't help but to shout it out as her friend joined her and Maggie's conversation. "This is Maggie, and over there's Rosa and Kairi" she said, pointing at her new friends. "Oh my god" she said again, "We're gonna have so much fun!!" Erica smiled broadly giggling "I'm so happy too, that we got sorted into the same house." She squeezed her friends gently her eyes sparkling. This night was turning out to be very good. Of course it would have been absolutely perfect if Natka also had been sorted into Gryffindor. Erica smiled at the girls Lizzie introduced as Kairi, Rosa and Maggie. Were they going to end up being her friends too? Turning to Lizzie she asked "Umm. Did you see in which house Natka was sorted? Maybe we should go over and visit her?" Quote:

It’s nice to meet you. I'm good, though a little sad. My other friend from the train, Natka wasn't sorted into Gryffindor even though we all hoped to get into the same house." Erica sighed a little, but then cheered up asking "So how are you doing, Shaylee? Did you think that you would be sorted into Gryffindor? And also what are you most looking forward too at school? Classes, quidditch, duelling or maybe making new friends?" |

Maggie was enjoying all those cakes, and just chewing, taking more sweete and..well, just eating. She was listening to the conversation of her new schoolmates and friends. A new girl, Erica came. And Lizzie was just smiling all the time. Maggie made great decision: no more cakes, or she wil blow up! Or, maybe, one more sweet, she smiled and took one chocolate muffin on her plate. "Hi Erica, I'm Maggie," she said, smiling, her mouth full of muffin."Hmm, sorry,"she said, swallowing the bite. "So you already met Lizzie before?"she asked."Great!"she added, looking forward to get know her friends better.

In minutes her plate was full of food. Digging into the food on her plate she was content with just eating and listening to the conversation around her. She was really hungry. As she finished off her plate she heard someone say her name. Looking up Erica smiled saying "Nice to meet you, Maggie!" Smiling broadly she asked noting the muffins on the other girls plate "Are the muffins, good? Are there different flavors to choose from?" Relaxing in her seat she nodded "Yes, i met Lizzie and another girl Natascha/Natka on the train to Hogwarts. Do you know Lizzie from before Hogwarts or did you just meet her tonight?" |

"Very well, Mr. Weasley. Have it your way." He was assuming that this little talk between them was an argument? It was merely a suggestion! Kingston, as the oldest, had suggested to Mr. Weasley that he would be nice to little first years such as Mr. Kururugi. It seems as though the younger boy took his suggestion as an insult.
Snort. People and their bloody assumption.
The seventh year then turned his attention back to Mr. Kururugi, a sweet smile creeping on his lips. "Let me teach you a lesson, my dear boy. People should be nice no matter who they are speaking to. Even if it maybe the person they hate most. A person must keep his composure and act as the better man." Kingston informed the small boy, grinning. If Kingston had a chance to teach this little first year some manners, then he wouldn't mind the young boy tagging along through his last year. It would be quite interesting. Quote:

Daphne shook her head sternly. "There was never an argument not to mention a fight," she corrected, wondering how some could forget to be careful of their words they chose when speaking. Sure, there was a difference of opinions happening but it was hardly an argument. "Jason is just simply misunderstanding a lot of us."
Reaching up, she patted Raiden's hand softly with a smile. "It's okay Rai," she whispered, turning her head slightly hoping to spot either Davis, her butler, or a wicked familiar face that could save her from so many unpleasant topics. Hopefully her time at Hogwarts wouldn't be like this all the time. "By the way," interrupted the 12 year old well aware that she had been already introduced. "My name is Daphne Hopton. Nice to meet you." Quote:

" Do you know what is happenning- I do not think so and yet when I say hello to you. tell you that you are one of the good Quidditch players on the team, you decide not to say anything nice to me" Jason told her. "Anna, I really, really neeed to talk to you and of course Cale by himself" Jason tells her. " This is really getting out of hands and if they want to hurt my feelings, everyone did- I understand Slytherins being themselves because they do not like Gryffindors at times. I am not happy with Gryffindors going against me, I do not want any part of this house" Jason said to Anna and Cale. " Look, I have plenty of history at HogWarts through my family, not mention they are alumni but they would not stand for our family or Gryffindor housemates act bad towards each other. Quote:

She wasn't as refined herself. Just an average middle-class girl. Schooled on state funds. Her brother probably knew many people like Kingston now, seeing as he went to Cambridge. Without her. Whenever he came back he'd seemed slightly different. Sometimes she felt like he kept playing musical chairs with all of the people who looked like him but were very different personality-wise. She frowned.
Raiden felt a sudden bubble of sadness in his chest as Kingston Wendleworth spoke again. Had he been arguing? If he had... he felt horrible. He didn't want to argue with the older boy, but... the boy had been mean and made Daphne Hopton upset. He didn't like when his friends were upset.
"Was... was I being mean?" Raiden asked quietly as Kingston spoke to him again. "I didn't even realize. I didn't mean to... I'm sorry. I was just unhappy because of how he was treating Daphne Hopton and Bree..."
His hand rubbed the back of his neck and he bit his lip anxiously. Raiden Kururugi... mean? He didn't want anyone to think of him as mean. If people thought he was rude, or mean, or anything like that... they wouldn't want to be friends! And Raiden so wanted to be friends with everyone he met. But... this older guy didn't seem to want to be friends. And maybe he was wrong, but Raiden didn't really feel the urge to be friends with him, either. Treating people with respect wasn't something that was limited to those you already knew, and the way he'd treated Daphne Hopton and the rest of them was just plain wrong.
He looked then at Daphne Hopton, who had patted his hand and smiled slightly at him. "You're okay, Daphne Hopton?" he murmured, still concerned no matter what she could say. "You're sure?"
And then the Jason person was off again, reprimanding Barry, the boy who Raiden had just met, and another person named Gwen. Raiden bit his lip again in confusion. Jason was saying that if Barry didn't take his side, then they'd no longer be family? Was it possible to do that? But he didn't interfere; Kingston Wendleworth had told him not to start an argument. He didn't want to go against Kingston Wendleworth, after all... but Jason was being very mean to more people now... and what was that about Slytherins? Being themselves because they didn't like Gryffindors?! But... Raiden looked at Daphne Hopton, then at Anna, and Bree, and Cale, who was looking very, very unhappy... and Astrid too, was a Gryffindor. He liked them... He didn't understand what the boy was saying.
"Daphne Hopton," he whispered, keeping his voice very, very low. "You're a Gryffindor, right? And Bree is too... and most everyone around, except for me, and Kingston Wendleworth..."
He trailed off. The guy had heard him earlier from farther away, and again, Raiden didn't want to start arguments... and besides, Cale was yelling now. Raiden flinched at the unnatural sound of Cale's shouting. It didn't seem like he did it much, it just didn't sound right for Cale's voice to be so... loud. He was upset with them all, it seemed... and he said something about them going to their own tables? Raiden was genuinely unhappy now. He'd not only displeased Kingston Wendleworth, but Cale, too.
"Maybe.. maybe I should go back to the Slytherin Table," Raiden mumbled, his lips drawing themselves down at the corners. "I didn't want to make Kingston Wendlworth and Cale displeased... Or Anna, or Daphne Hopton..." He looked at Bree, who had just supplied her last name to him as well, and tried to smile. "It's very nice to have met you, Bree Finchley." He looked at Astrid, and Barry. "You too, Astrid and Barry..."
He stood awkwardly for a moment, trying to figure out a way to escape this place without stepping on or running into anyone. There were too many people here anyway, and if he was just here adding to the anger and starting arguments, well... no one would miss him. If only he could find a way around all these people... |

Barry spotted Raiden did he look sad? First years arn`t supposed to be sad no there supposed to be climbing trees pretending to be tarzan and jumping in puddles like Cela wanted to.
He walked over and said "It was a pleasure meeting you too Raiden and I`m really sorry for what Jason has done to you. I can tell your a nice kid and well Jasons just misunderstood that hes a good bloke just sometimes he jumps to conclutions without thinking about it but after that I can understand if you want to keep away. Apart from him everyone likes you and you`ll be welcome over at the Ravenclaw table if you ever want to come. Now if you want to get away from Jason Iand go away then I won`t stop you but I`d like it if I could get to know you better if not here maybe at my table"

Maggie smiled as Erica mentioned muffins. "Hmm, I think there,"she pointed across the table," are also some peppermint and right here,"she looked on her left," are some lemons one." she said. "Nah, I met Lizzie just few minutes before you came,"said Maggie," She was talking to Kairi, and I met Kairi before on Diagon Alley,"she smiled. " I'm glad we are together in Gryffindor,"Maggie blushed a little, "you know, I mean, that you all are very nice, so,"she paused," we, hmm, could be good friends,"she ended, thaing a bite in the muffin. She never knew how to show emotions, and it was really difficult for her even say something like this.

As Via was busying herself with food, she noticed her friends cheerfully chatting with each other. She just smiled, she was at HOgwarts no and it's going to be another wonderful year for her and her friends. All were enjoying the party if she wasn't mistaken.
via saw Barry and students from other houses at their table, She waved over to Barry and a new boy who was looking so nice. Actually Barry was talking to him. Now via had to adjust coz there were many people at school now not only girls anymore but with boys.

Already finished eating Rosa yawned as she waited for the feast to be over. Starting to get rather tired, her head dropping a few times. She had always been an early sleeper so it was natural that she was starting to nod off.

I'm good, though a little sad. My other friend from the train, Natka wasn't sorted into Gryffindor even though we all hoped to get into the same house." Erica sighed a little, but then cheered up asking "So how are you doing, Shaylee? Did you think that you would be sorted into Gryffindor? And also what are you most looking forward too at school? Classes, quidditch, duelling or maybe making new friends?" Kairi looked at the new girl who had just came over. She was called Erika and Lizzie seemed to know her. The misty thing sitting on her shoulder was a parrot, white and beautiful. Kairi smiled at Erika, trying to avoid looking at the parrot. "Hi, I'm Kairi," she said, nodding politely at her, her blind, purple eyes reflecting in her pumpkin juice.

Turning a little in her seat to look at Kairi she said "Nice to meet you Kairi! I think we met in Flourish & Blotts in Diagon Ally? I'm sorry if i ignored you. The book incident made me not think straight. So sorry about that."

"Oh yeah," Kairi said remembering the incident. "Were you ok? I think the heaviest book of the lot fell on your head, must of had quite a bump there," she said, with a small smile. "So are you a first year too? I can't wait for Quidditch and Transfiguration, oh, and Charms, oh, and the food here is great don't you think? I think so, it's the best food I've ever tasted, especially the chips," she said in one full flow. She took a deep breath, "Sorry about that, I do tend to babble on a bit sometimes," she said, with a grin.

She looked around and saw all her new friends get along very well. Happy she grabbed some more food. This seemed to turn out pretty well. Her only thought was This is were I'm meant to be. She had got tired, and wasn't really in the conversation. She just heard some parts here and there. With happy thoughts she turned to them all. "Anyone knows where the gryffindore commonroom is? I've wondered for a while. This castle most be huge.." She looked around. Imagine the whole castle if this was only the place where they would eat. There most be millions of classrooms, corridors... She could hardly wait to get to know it all.

She took a deep breath, "Sorry about that, I do tend to babble on a bit sometimes," she said, with a grin. Erica stroked her head absentmindedly feeling the bump still on her head. The good thing was that it had stopped swelling and it didn't hurt anymore. Looking at Kairi she responded "I'm okay now. I think you're right. My head got hit with the heaviest book in the lot. I've still got a big bump on my head from it. It's stopped swelling and hurting, but my auntie wants me to have it checked out by the school nurse." Erica smiled and nodded "Yes, I’m a first year. Do you think we will get to learn how to use our wands and perform spells and potions?"
Eating up the last of her lemon muffin she mumbled "Quidditch is what I’m most looking forward to, too. I hope to try out for the house team, but only if first years are allowed. I'm looking forward to all classes and that includes Transfiguration and Charms." It was a bit hard to keep up with Kairi's pace and change of subject. Taking a short pause to gather her thoughts she said "Yes, the food here is definitely delicious compared to what my auntie cooks. She isn't much of a cook." Erica grinned at Kairi saying "Don't apologize I tend to babble on too, if I have a lot on my heart." |

Kairi nodded at Lizzie, "Your right, it is massive. But I haven't a clue where the common room is, and you might need to help me find Lizzie," she said, winking at her with a blind and purple eye.
Then she turned back to Erika. She grinned and popped another chip in her mouth.
ooc: got to go, be back in 5 minutes

Rosa covered another yawn, eyes drooped half close. Trying to keep her eyes from closing seemed to burn even more of her energy. With her elbow on the table she rested her head against her hand, big mistake because her eyes just about closed completely. Causing her to tip backward out her seat. "Ahhh!" she squeaked loudly.

"Hmm, I guess I like those classic ones, like chocolate and vanilla with chocolate chips,"she said.
Then she heard something about best friends. It took her a while realizing that Erica was talking about her and Maggie." oh, what?"she said, surprised." I mean, sure, we,hmm"she paused, "surely can be friends, or best friends,"she said, smiling, but little nervous. She was glad that Erica offered her being best friends, but they have just met, so why the hurry? " Hmm, sure, I hope we all will be very good friends after all,"she added, but then realized that her friendship with Erica and Lizzie could be really close," but, I, hmm,"she really didnt like talking about emotions! "guess, you and Lizzie, you are, I think..huh..close to me,"she ended, hoping that all what she said didnt sound as stupid for Erica as it sounded for her.
She smiled at her," Hmm, and whats your favourite flavour of muffin?"she asked, hoping, that emotions-talk was done.

As Lizzie joined in the conversation again Erica gave her a playfull poke in the side asking jokingly "Where did you go off too? Dreamland?" Feeling a slight yawn coming she hid it with her hand saying "I think someone said that it was on the seventh floor, but i'm not sure. Won't the prefect's lead us there?" Quote:
