hearing Enya use his name he get's up from his table and walks over.As he gets closer and hears more of the conversation.A look of rage comes over him.Not wanting to upset Enyna any more than she is he turn and returns to his table.

"I do not think I have met any of your champions. Most of the students I have meet have been around your age." Not exactly his age, but anyone younger than fifteen was a child in her eyes. The boys she was talking to could possibly be entering the tournament, but she didn't care to ask. She shook her head at the boy's question. "No ve don't have houses at Durmstrang." Sandra certainly didn't get the whole house system, pointless to her really.

She did wish for him to call her Sandra. Giving him a small smile, she took a bit of her food. Her eyes were still on the students down the table. Honestly, one would think they would be better behaved when they had guests housing with them. "It must be. I do not think they were tought proper etiquette before coming here. Hogvarts should look into adding that to their curriculum." Obviously they had none.

The food was good, though. Definitely worth saving until after the headmaster's speech. "Vill you be attending the classes here?" She glanced up from her food at Noel. A few class she knew she would be attending. Their potions class for sure as well as defence. Needed to know what she was up against.

" Well, I am happy I made you feel better" Rex told Rowan. " I like hanging out with you" Rex said to Rowan. "I was a first year one time, too, well technically I transfered here in my fourth year but that is still like being a first year" Rex explained to Rowan. Victoria started in her first year I bet" Rex smiled.

Grayson had reached over to take a piece of chicken, then added some vegetables to her plate. Maybe she could feed her ferret a bit of the chicken, if she didn't eat it all first. Finn was still over with Jimmy and the girl, and she figured Noel and Aleksandra were occupied again with her fellow students. Beyond wandering to the other tables to investigate the other visitors, it seemed all she had to do was eat and think about the speech Headmaster Tate had given. Just the idea that she'd get to experience a Triwizard Tournament like the trio had done was making her excited. But as she felt someone take a seat next to her, she turned. Hmm, not Ivy. Maybe she could try to do better at introducing herself this time. Better than her babbling at the older students, at least. "Hi," she said with a smile, glad she'd not started eating yet. "Are you as excited as me for the tournament?" Eh, actual introductions could wait. Besides, Ivy'd known her name already. Maybe this girl did too.

"Jen...I'm leaving and never coming back" Adam said as he gave her a final kiss and left

ooc: I'm officially leaving SS for a while

Jen left the great hall with one tear silently dripping down her face.

ooc: when are you coming back?

Adam finally left, thinking of why he did what he did to both Selena and Jen.

ooc: I don't know

Before Roe could get an answer out of her, she looked around the hall and saw her friend Lara. "Excuse me for a second," she said to Jenny. "Lara, over here!" she called out, waving her hand in the air frantically. She wanted Jenny to meet Lara.

In the process, however, Roe's hand knocked over the pumpkin juice on the table and it spilled on to the lap of another girl sitting next to her. "Oh my goodness..." Roe said weakly, lifting her hands to her cheek in embarrassment and shame. It was truly an awful mess.

Pamphylia. A very unique name.
"I love your name! It's not caffeinated."
Elizabeth gave a huge smile as she sat down next to Pam. Oh, the FOOD! Food is a beautiful thing. Not in the eat-morbidly-all-the-time way, but in the wow-this-is-unlike-anything-I've-ever-had-before-and-it-tastes-awesome! way.
"So are you a first year too?" she asked carefully as she stuffed her mouth with the best rolls that ever existed.

"I like hanging out with you too." Rowan couldn't believe it. She'd actually made some friends. And on her very first day! "I'm curious. Are the classes here as tough as everyone says?"

The little girl's eyes hung upon her wand as the professor turned it between his hands. She was concerned, what if the wand was such a waste of galleons? She wouldn't be able to do magic this term. But the professor knelt down before Louisa and whispered something. She almost backed away when he approached her, but his soft (still stern) features kept her rooted to her spot.

She took the wand back and her eyes were wet all of a sudden after he patted her shoulder. She didn't deserve to be treated nicely, not now that she got herself involved into such a mess like little girls would do. Even Danny stopped doing stupid deeds. Tears gathered in her eyes as she nodded to the teacher, "Okay. I'd never do spells before I learn how to do them. I promise." She said her voice was shaking and she could fall apart at any moment, crying out loud or something.

Skye interfered at last, not only talked about the mess but the whole story since Louisa joined them. Louisa listened to her and admired her courage of telling the truth so plainly and no fear of a friend. Books weren't always right then, she made a mental note in her head. Louisa's determination on not telling on Enya failed now and there was no good in staying silent. She decided to tell her share of the story.
"Sir, what Skye has said is correct. It was an accident first; that Carin poured the juice over Enya's lap. But Enya was so tired and I made her angry lately." The girl's face mirrored her sorry and she rambled on, "So she couldn't stand any more annoying people, she has a touchy mood." Yeah, the professor needed to know all about Louisa's analysis of her friends' attitudes. You want honesty from youngsters? That is honesty mixed with innocence. " But Carin didn't get this, so she kept on pushing Enya and threw some food at her. And…" She glanced at Enya sadly digesting her words, "Enya took revenge and poured juice on her. Her voice trailed off at the end.
And we reached when Louisa stepped in, "I thought I could help them to clean themselves up before throwing something else. And..umm.. I was wrong… obviously." She finished her head hanging in shame again.

What a relief! The story's been told whole and Louisa didn't betray Enya. Or so she thought. Louisa now was ready to face any punishment she deserved, she did act irresponsible. Her mother wouldn't be happy when she knew what happened. Her stepfather could make fun of her magic! She swallowed the lump and waited for the professor to talk. Too scared to hear him that she almost closed her ears with her fingers. But that was rude! She just closed her eyes and waited for the bomb to explode.

"Ahh" Katie screamed as the pumpkin juice dripped on her lap, Katie stood up and got one of the napkins, she wipped it on her robes and there was no mark, Yay! but it was wet *sigh*, Katie smiled.

Selena was on her way back to the great hall when she spotted Jen "hi Jen!" she said with a smile when she saw how upset Jen was "a-are you alright,girl?" she said

"I'm...I'm...I'm so, so so, sorry, Roe stammered, her face red. This had to be one of the most embarrassing days of her life. First Jenny had caught her eating like a pig and now she had spilled juice on another first year. "I think I'm just a bit excited today," she smiled, trying to find the light in the situation. Goodness, how her cluminess came to affect her at the worst times.

Annie turned her head for a cheerful greeting from a younger girl. Then all of the sudden she was asking the non-usual question about how people were excited about the tournament. Sure Annie was interested in that, although she didn't consider herself worth to be a champion. "Haiii." She replied, still thinking on how to answer to her, "Yeah...maybe not as excited as you are," because she just seemed to be beaming over it, "...but it will be a great...and adrenaline rush-filled experience to us...to everyone in the school." And so to speak, the visitors who were aimlessly surrounded by the lots of intrigued Hogwarts students.

"I'm Annie...and you are??" She quietly asked, stretching her hand for a shake.

It seemed Grayson's question had made the girl think. Not really what she'd expected, but at least she'd gotten the conversation started. And hadn't babbled yet. "Well, I'm more excited 'cause I know all the stories from the tournament ages ago. You know, when Harry Potter was here and all? And the new people to meet is exciting too. I've already met the two that are staying with us." She shrugged a little. Now she felt like she was entering babbling territory, but it was important information. "Noel, he's the Beauxbatons boy, he seems nice. And Aleksandra's the Durmstrang student. She seemed more interested in the boys. And not us younger students." Personally, Grayson just liked Noel. And then Finn, and the others she'd met and had fun with, but they were Hogwarts people. And her personal prank buddies, or whatever. Annie could meet them on her own. "Oh!," she said as the girl introduced herself. Apparently her reputation hadn't gotten as much around as she'd thought. Maybe there still were people who didn't know about what happened at the alumni ball. "I'm Grayson. Nice to meet you." She scrunched her nose a little. "Sorry 'bout the babbling."

"Thanks! And that's good. If it was I would be bouncing off the walls, and right now, i think i'm gonna crash after this!" She giggled. "Mmhmm. I am. This place is amazing! This here is Ty. He's a third year." She said gesturing over to the boy sitting next to her.

"Thats alright, Im Katie Star by the way, Slytherin" Katie said with a smile on her face, she put out her hand for this girl to shake.

Enya got up and left the table.

And well...the girl, introduced as Grayson started babbling. Not leaving a blink escape from her eye, Annie smiled. AHA. She was a natural in the talent of talking fast though in a bit of informative way. She heard Grayson speak about the Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students, the girl who didn't pay attention to younger ones and the nice guy she talked about, peeking from the corner of her eye to the students referred to.

"It is nice meeting you too, Grayson." She beamed with a smile. "And no worries about the babbling, I can sometimes do a bit of my own as well." She pointed out and giggled. "So, if you're not going to sign up," due to the age Grayson probably was, Annie guessing she'd be around 12 or 13. "What schoool, besides ours of course might you support?" Annie asked curiously. If asked, she'd be interested about the Durmstrang champion, but she had to see who was going to represent Hogwarts throughout the tournament.

So apparently the Sorting Hat saw it fit that he be placed into Ravenclaw. Ethan raised a speculative eyebrow to the revelation as he sauntered over to the table of blue and bronze. They were known as the swotty types, weren't they? And he certainly didn't think that neither he nor his step-brother who had just got sorted there before him fit that description.

The fifteen year old shrugged lightly as he approached and looked for an empty seat. He was sure there were other attributes to the house and besides, he didn't care much anyway - it had to be a cool house or the musty old hat would've put him somewhere else.

Sliding into an empty spot near people who seemed to about his age, Ethan glanced down one end of the table, looking for Dozer... or food. Yes, food first, brother second. He was hungryyy.

Jenny noticed Roe standing up and waving her hand to someone. She couldn't see who she was waving to, but whoever it was...it sounded like Roe wanted Jenny to meet this person real badly. In fact, Roe looked so excited that she accidentally knocked her pumpkin juice on someone.

Jenny looked around Roe to notice the person who had pumpkin juice spilled on herself. The girl seemed to forgive Roe already; she even put her hand out as if waiting for a handshake. Not wanting to interrupt this moment, Jenny just sat there and said "Hi!" to the girl. She wondered if the girl would consider her rude still.

Emily smiled still "It's okay rex, and no you can still call me Emily... I'm really only called vadoma in the village. If you ever happen by the village you should call me vadoma there. Otherwise it's your choice." Emily then stood up hearing that rex had no on else. she hugged him warmly "I know you love kay but if you need to talk you can always talk to me... im here when you need me rex" Emily said.

"Oh, non. Not rude at all." he smiled, taking a quick sip of his drink. Hmm, well it was custom to have introductions first, but he hadn't introduced himself to the girl either. To Vashti he had, but not to her even though she was standing right next to the Ravenclaw girl. "Only saying so because I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself az well." Laughing, he set the goblet down back onto the table before looking back over to Trixie. "Bonjour Trixie. It iz very nice to meet you. My name iz Noel Laurent."

Glancing one more time to the Slytherin table to see if both Jermaine and Monique were doing alright, and then to the Hufflepuff table to see if Brielle was alright as well, Noel smiled once again as he let his gaze fall back onto Trixie. "Fantastique. I will be looking forward to hanging with you in ze future zen. Are you excited about ze tournament?"

Looking around as he ate, his eyes did land on someone wearing...red colored robes? Or at least part of it was red. He had only seen blue and green, so this person must have been from the lion table. Aw he had yet to meet anyone from the lion table.

Was there something about them that were not intriguing? He had seen Jermaine drag one off to the snake table before. Perhaps so...

She had looked lost though. Or, maybe not? Couldn't find the person she sought after? "Bonjour mademoiselle." Perhaps he could help her find her way?

Nodding, quite content with where he was at the moment and the people he was meeting, Noel took another bite of his food when the girl had screamed.

Very loudly too...

"Hogwarts étudiants sont fort..." he mumbled to himself, wide eyed and startled. Turning to Vashti, he looked around to see if she was hurt or if someone was bugging her. But, he could see nothing. "Are you alright, Vashti? Are you hurt?"

Perhaps he just wasn't seeing it.

Perhaps they had not. But he had seen that there were a few people that seemed to have grasped the proper manners like one should know. Some of the others though, almost made himself feel embarrassed for them.

"A first year class, oui?" He did agree with having a set course on proper etiquette and manners mentioned to the school, but he definitely wasn't going to be the one to say it to their headmaster. Would be rude! He wouldn't mind other people mentioning it to him though. Hesitantly taking a bite of what seemed to be a British food, he chewed for a moment, trying to decide if he liked it or not when Sandra had asked about classes.

"A few, maybe." he said after swallowing. Particularly their charms and transfiguration classes, just to see if they were teaching anything that he didn't already know. "It would be nice to see how zese zings differ from our school. But I am all for continuing my independent studies if I do not enjoy ze classes." Heck, he'd be fine with just studying on his own, but while he was at the school, might as well get to know everything about it. As well as what they really are studying and how far along they are with their knowledge.

Nothing like getting an up close look at your competition. "And you az well?"

Emily then heard someone with a french accent and turned around to see someone she had never met before, so she presumed him a beauxbatons.

"Bonjour, Je m'apelle Emily, sa me fait plaisir pour faire votre connaisance!" (Hello, My name is Emily, it gives me great pleasure to make your acquaintance!) Emily said smiling at the boy. "I live in a bilingual province in Canada when not studying here at hogwarts." Emily said smiling.
