Large quantities of food are spread before you. Whether breakfast, lunch, or dinner, the Hogwarts' house elves are the best in the world. The food is superb and the company is as well.
The house poem, penned by All4oliverwood:
Get up off of your seats
Ready for some fun?
You ain't seen nothin' yet
For this years just begun
Friends are rollin' in
It's faces old and new
Nothing comes between us
Dear Gryffindors be true
Outside of the castle
Ready for things to fly
Lions are soaring strong
In a game that's do or die
On this autumn night
Near the crimson fireplace
Solid friendships forming
People so full of grace
Rockin' the competition
In a race for the house cup
Doing everything we can
Earning points to keep us up
Reeling for a win
Us Lions gettin' it done
Loyality guiding us through
Everyone working as one
"Nothing now."Katlyn smiled "maybe we could do this homework together because i need tocatch up to and i really don't get this."Katlyn said hoping Lucy would help her with the Transfiguration Homework.
"Sure thing, Kat! Let's go up to the Common room together. Just let me finish my food--I'm starving!!" Lucy said.
It was true--she hadn't eaten anything all day except for a bowl of porridge for breakfast!
Hungrily, Lucy grabbed a bowl of fruit and starting loading her plate with all different kinds of fruit.
Daisy shrugged again as she took another sip of milk. “I tend to keep to myself, might be a reason.” There was also the fact that Daisy, in her first couple of years here, had spent a majority of her time in the greenhouses and at the lake and that was about it. She didn’t hang out with a lot of people and she didn’t hang out in the common room unless there was nothing else to do.
“And I spend a lot of time in the greenhouses.” She said as an afterthought. She scratched the patch of dried algae and dirt on her cheek and then reached paste Vivianne for a bowl of veggies. “The plants don’t really talk about the people that visit them, it’s kinda nice.” And quiet. And a good place to think. she added to herself.
"Well you are nice looking" Jason told Daisy. " You have Vivianne as a close friend and you can not do better than her" Jason said to Diasy. " Unless it is me" Jason laughed. Jason shot the picture of Daisy. Her face and her body would even be better in a painted portrait.
"Sure thing, Kat! Let's go up to the Common room together. Just let me finish my food--I'm starving!!" Lucy said.
It was true--she hadn't eaten anything all day except for a bowl of porridge for breakfast!
Hungrily, Lucy grabbed a bowl of fruit and starting loading her plate with all different kinds of fruit.
"No kidding." Kat said jokingly. "So what classes have you been to so far?"She asked as she herself grabbed some fruit.

Alexandra walked into the Great Hall with her camera in hand and approached her house table. Looking around she decided to take a photo of the whole table instead of one particular person. Catching them off guard would make for a better photo. She bent down and kind of duck walked over and snapped a candid photo and scurried away.
Lucy walked into the Great Hall and headed for an empty space at the Gryffindor table. She made sure there was an empty space on both sides of her so Katlyn would have somewhere to sit when she came. Looking around, she noticed a girl taking a picture of the whole Gryffindor table.
"Must be the Muggle Studies homework," she murmured, as she had seen many people taking random pictures for that particuar subject.
While waiting for Katlyn, Lucy grabbed some milk and cereal, and made herself a nice breakfast.
"Wonder when Kat will get down here.." she thought as she ate.
Happy glanced back over his shoulder before hastily taking a seat at the Gryffindor table. He wasn't exactly looking to where he was sitting, his mind more focussed on the large, oak door that lead through to the Great Hall from the entrance. He breathed out, satisfisied that no one was coming, and turned to the unfortuneate person sitting next to him.
It was a girl, around about his age, and she was eating cereal. He smiled sheepishly at her, "Er...sorry about that," he said, indicating to his sudden and quite dramatic actions. He chuckled nervously and to stop himself from doing anything even more embarassing, he grabbed a handful of chips and dropped them onto his plate.
Alexandra plopped down in an open spot at the Gryffindor table. Careful to keep her eyes on her table, she didn't want to have a run in with the little Hufflepuff or the slippery little Slytherin.

Lucy immediately noticed that someone had occupied one of the seats next to her. It was boy who didn't look like he was paying attention to where he was sitting.
"Oh, that's quite alright! I was just saving a seat for my friend, but she can sit on my other side," Lucy said as she placed her bag on the seat next to her so no one would sit there.
"I'm Lucy, by the way. And you are...?" she asked the boy, with a curious smile. She had definitely never seen him before, but she loved making new friends.

Lucy also noticed the girl who had snapped a picture of the table sitting nearby. Knowing that she hated sitting alone, she decided to introduce herself.
"Hi there! I'm Lucy Mclean, fourth year. I've seen you around the castle, but I don't know your name..." she said with a chuckle.
Glad that she hadn't taken affence to his sudden arrival, although he was still sorry that he'd stolen the seat of her friend, he bit the end of one of his chips thoughtfully. The hot potato burned the back of his throat and he coughed.
"Nice to meet you Lucy," he said, once he'd swallowed the scorching chip. "I'm Happy, fourth year Gyffindor,"

Noticing that he was almost choking, she looked at him with concern.
"Don't choke on me, now!" she exclaimed, with a laugh.
"It's nice to meet you, Happy. I'm a fourth year as well! By the way---LOVE your name. Does it match your personality?" she asked with a smile.

"Nice me to meet you, Alexandra! Do you like to be called Alex? Or do you prefer Alexandra?" Lucy asked her.
"Nice me to meet you, Alexandra! Do you like to be called Alex? Or do you prefer Alexandra?" Lucy asked her.
Alexandra grimaced for a second then said, "I only go ny Alexandra, no variations. It's not that I don't know it's a mouth full, but me mum would kill me if I let anyone call me Alex." She said with a hint of laughter in her voice. Her mom was a hoot! "So, what year are you in, Lucy?" Alexandra asked the older girl.
He frowned, deciding to leave the rest of the chips until they'd cooled down. He did not want a repeat of what'd just happened, although Lucy hadn't taken too badly to it. And she was a fourth year, and obviously a Gryffindor considering they were both sitting on the same table. Another girl, much younger this time, had also joined them. And by the passing of names, it seemed she was called Alexandra. Blimey. And no abbreviations of it either. He'd have to remember that. He nodded to her in a form of recognition before turning back to Lucy to answer her question.
Happy shrugged and grinned slightly, "I guess... I've never really thought about it in that way before. I used to get teased about it when I was younger, but it doesn't tend to bother me anymore. But sometimes it does give across the wrong impression. I'm not a ray of sunshine, I'm sorry to say, but in some aspects, I suppose it does reflect my personality," No one had ever said that about his name before; it astounded him that she LOVED it. To him it had mostly been a burden, but maybe now, things were looking up. He smiled, nodded and ate another chip, forgetting they were still steaming hot. The heat hit him like a ton of bricks. He hastily reached for his pumpkin juice and took a large, relieving sip. The cool, orange liquid hastily removed any further burning. As he placed the cup back onto the table, he chuckled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck nervously as he did so.

Rafe took a seat. He was starving. It felt like forever since the last time he ate. He piled his plate high with food. If a zebra was on the table, he probably would have dived right in like a lion.
He pushed some of the meat that was overcooked to the side. He hated overcooked meat. Couldn't Hogwarts have some things a bit more on the rare side.

"Oh, I see. Well, that's totally fine by me, I would hate it if people called me Lucille--which is my real first name, but I prefer Lucy, and that's what I tell everyone to call me."
"I'm a fourth year, as I was just telling Happy here," she continued, noticing the way his name sounded on her lips--she simply LOVED saying his name!
"What about you?" she asked Alexandra

Lucy laughed when Happy said he wasn't a "ray of sunshine"--he was too cute!
"Well, I promise you will never see me teasing you about your name--I love unusual names."
Noticing that he had eaten another hot chip, and gulped down some pumpkin juice to ease his burning throat, Lucy said,"You ok there, Happy? I would wait on those chips--now I know why your mom didn't name you Patience!"
Lucy laughed at her own joke--oh, she was too funny. Well, she didn't crack jokes that often, but it felt good to make some jokes now and then.

Lucy then noticed that someone else had joined the table. She looked up to find that it was Rafe--the charming boy she had met yesterday.
"Hey Rafe!" she yelled to him.
"Wanna join Alexandra, Happy, and me?" she asked him, pointing to other two sitting beside her.
"Oh, I see. Well, that's totally fine by me, I would hate it if people called me Lucille--which is my real first name, but I prefer Lucy, and that's what I tell everyone to call me."
"I'm a fourth year, as I was just telling Happy here," she continued, noticing the way his name sounded on her lips--she simply LOVED saying his name!
"What about you?" she asked Alexandra.
Alexandra blushed a bit and then answered, "I am a first year. I don't really know anyone else in my year. For that matter, I don't really know very many people here at all." She dropped her gaze to the table and waited to see if she would still want to befriend an Ickle Firstie....

Lucy immediately noticed the way she dropped her gaze as she explained she was a first year.
"Aww, don't look sad, I love making new friends, no matter what year! Infact, I think I have more first year friends than fourth year! I love firsties--and I would LOVE to be your friend!" Lucy smiled happily at Alexandra, and took a bite of her cereal.
"So, how are you liking Hogwarts so far?" she asked her.

"So, how are you liking Hogwarts so far?" she asked her.
Alexandra perked up immediately and smiled brightly at Lucy. "I have really only made friends with the older kids. I have always been surrounded by older people, so it feels natural, you know." She grabbed her glass of pumpkin juice and took a swallow before saying, "I absolutely love it here! Besides a mean little Slytherin and an annoying Hufflepuff everyone has been so nice."

Lucy was glad Alexandra seemed relaxed now.
"Yeah, the older students tend to be a bit more open about making friends with younger students."
"Welll, some Slytherins can be mean, I guess, but the Hufflepuffs are usually nice," Lucy responded, placing her hand under her chin as if in thought, "Which Hufflepuff could possible have made you angry?" Lucy asked her thoughtfully.
"Oh, I see. Well, that's totally fine by me, I would hate it if people called me Lucille--which is my real first name, but I prefer Lucy, and that's what I tell everyone to call me."

Lucy laughed at her own joke--oh, she was too funny. Well, she didn't crack jokes that often, but it felt good to make some jokes now and then.
"Thanks," he said, pushing his plate away from him slightly with the tip of his index finger. He smiled at her from the corner of his mouth, then returned his gaze to the food on his plate, his eyes wistful and longing. What she had just said meant a lot to him deep down. It was like someone had lifted a huge weight off his shoulders. He didn't think his name would be a bother anymore; everyone he'd spoken to (all of three people, well, technically two) had not teased him about it and Lucy had actually just admitted that she liked unusual names, which his most certainly was. It made him feel all warm inside.
He turned to look at her at her next comment, both his eyebrows raised, before he could contain it no longer. An actual laugh escaped his lips, and even though it was small and short and more like a chuckle than anything, it felt good; he grinned. "Not bad, Lucy, not bad," he said, with a slight shake of his head. "But I think you're right; maybe I do need to wait a bit before they cool down. The whole burning my mouth thing isn't really working out," He moved his tongue about his mouth experimentally. It felt numb. He frowned, drawing his stare away from the chips before he took another sip of pumpkin juice.

He listened to the two girls curiously, occasionally taking glances at the food but hastily turning his focuus away from them and back towards the conversation. An irritable Hufflepuff?

"Um...urrrr," he said with a mouthful of food and quickly swallowed. "I'm sorry that was rude of me, I meant sure." Rafe laughed as he brought over his mountain of food and goblet of pumkin juice. "So, what's the topic of discussion? Quidditch? Classes? Our futures?" Rafe laughed as he took another bite of food.

Alexandra smiled, it seems like Lucy may very well be right. The younger kids she had met were awfully unfriendly, aside from Lorcan."It seems like most everyone around here is very helpful also." she said with a smile. "I think the Huffies name was Kay. I thought they were all supposed to be sweet people too, but she seemed to have a problem with me from the time I met her." Alexandra said with shrug."Well, yeah the Slytherin didn't surprise me too much." Alexandra added as an afterthought.
She smiled at Happy and said to him, "How are you? I overheard you introduced yourself as Happy. I'm Alexandra Kennedy. It is really nice to meet you."
"Um...urrrr," he said with a mouthful of food and quickly swallowed. "I'm sorry that was rude of me, I meant sure." Rafe laughed as he brought over his mountain of food and goblet of pumkin juice. "So, what's the topic of discussion? Quidditch? Classes? Our futures?" Rafe laughed as he took another bite of food.
"No, it wasn't rude of you, it was normal of you," Lucy said as she laughed at the pile of food on Rafe's plate. Well, a growing boy has to eat, she thought to herself.
"Right now, we were discussing an annoying Hufflepuff, who has annoyed Alexandra. And this is Happy--" she pointed to the boy sitting next to her--" who is a fourth year like me. Oh, and Alexandra here is a firstie, like you," Lucy explained, hoping she had got the introductions right.

Lucy smiled sheepishly as Happy told her that her joke wasn't bad.
"I'll work on it," she replied with a laugh.
She noticed he kept looking at his food with a kind of longing.
"You know, there are tons of other things you can eat while you wait for those to cool. Or, better yet, does anyone know a spell that will cool down food?" She turned to Rafe, the spell expert, hoping he knew of such a spell. Kind of embarrassed that though she was older than him, she had little knowledge of common household spells.

"Kay, huh? Well, I'll keep an eye out for ya, and scold her if I meet her," Lucy said with another laugh.
"Most everybody here is extremely nice, Though, you're bound to get anomalies every now and then."
She took a final bite of her cereal and grabbed the jug of pumpkin juice. Pouring herself a gobletful, she sipped it thoughfully.

“Hey,” Daisy chimed trying to hide a smile. “You spend the day in the greenhouses trying to get gilly weed to sprout and then we’ll talk about your hair. Hair like a pineapple indeed.” And now she was mentally picturing having green spiky hair. She decided it was not a good look for her. She chuckled softly at that and ate another bit of apple.
“I’d say,” she said as Josh turned the conversation back to quidditch. “It’s more a matter of skill then luck. If you weren’t skilled, you wouldn’t have made the team, good luck or not.” She shook an empty for at the boy. “Don’t sell yourself short.”
''Well, i did not mean to be rude as i mentioned before'' Josh replied looking for more things to eat ''I know girls generally are sensitive about how they look but i just prefer the inside. I prefer seeing inside the people, am i clear?'' he stared at her with questioning eyes ''And you can talk about me of anything and anytime you want, yes anything. You can even stand up and shout the whole great hall something like that 'hey guys did you know Josh Carter from Gryffindor wears pink underwear!''' he shoke his head as he laughed ''I'd not be troubled by that.'' finally spotting some meat sandwiches he leaned over the table, his tie diving into a gravy plate, to take them. ''Thanks'' he said meantime as she meant he was skilled '' But this time i'm totally telling the truth. Oterwise you can find me in classed and other public areas telling people how cool and charming i am''
