"Cool, i hadn’t really thought about taking Divination. Can you go to all the lessons in your first year or do you have to be older for some? “Alice wanted to know exactly what she could take so she could learn as much as possible this year. Plus some lessons sounded really great and she didn’t want to have to wait to take them!

"I was watching as the teachers came in, most of them look really nice but who is that man sitting next to the Headmaster? He’s a bit erm..." Think of a polite word Alice, she thought to herself, don’t get in trouble for being rude on your first day! "...odd. Maybe even a little creepy."

It was a legitimate concern, in his not-so-humble opinion.

These handshakes were always far too formal for her liking, but the girl didn't want to be seen as rude, so always returned one, holding her hand out delicately and shaking back. "It's a pleasure to meet you Kellen" she smiled. "Oh thats okay, not a lot really happened to be honest" she was far too distracted by it all, and not forgetting how.. emotional she was feeling as well. "I'm sorry, I don't actually know what that is" she stated, slightly embarrassed by that fact, but she was pureblooded, there was a lot she didn't know of.

"Do you mind if I sit? The Slytherin table was getting a little bit too crowded?" she asked eying the empty seat next to him.

Satine glanced over and thought she saw the cookie girl from earlier. She leaned towards her and held out hand, "Howzit, I'm Satine Farris, sixth year..well...Ravvie..." she said with pride, "Are you the girl that brought us cookies earlier? If so, they are scrumdiliuptuos! Thanks for thinking about us Claws."

He relaxed as she hugged him, feeling a bit more at home. Though he was excited to be here, away from his parents and free(ish) to do what he wanted...there was nervousness and uncertainty too, and a bit of homesickness, even if he wouldn't admit it after less than a day away.

"You'd play with me?" he asked, taking that she meant the idea of Hide and Seek, and not his general list of things at Hogwarts. And she hadn't seen the squid? Pout. Though, it didn't mean to say it wasn't there - someone believed it was to put a class on to see it. "We should totally go find it. I knew I should have packed my snorkel..."

"Don't worry about it," Ellie smiled at him, "The Sorting Hat knows what it's doing." And anyway, in answer to his next question, "It is nice. The stairs are a bit of a nuisance, but you get used to it." Plus, otherwise they wouldn't have the stellar view of the mountains.

She was glad he relaxed. She wanted to make sure that he was plenty comfortable at school. It was an awfully long time until the holidays.

Play Hide and Seek with him? It had been quite a while since she'd played that game. "Of course I would." And maybe she could get some others to do so as well. But the Room of Requirement would be off limits. Otherwise, it would be totally unfair.

"We could do that, too." Ellie smiled. She was really curious about the Squid. It would be awesome to see it.

Here was one Ravenclaw prefect. Now he just had to locate Finlay and he'd be set. Of course, he didn't think he'd ever really met Finlay, just heard tales from Neptune, but the badge would be a direct give-away.

And how could she miss such a genuine smile like that.

Grinning excitedly, Ivory plopped herself down next to Kellen and felt her grin widen at the sight of his own badge. "Head boy, huh? Doing good Stern!"

Somehow his way of speaking made her want to act like one of the guys for some reason and before she could censor her movements she actually reached a hand out and clapped him on the back. Manly like. "Quite fun, ol' bean." Well he was old, him being a seventh year and all. " Eeeh scratch the bean part, odds are you don't like being called a bean." She for one didn't feel too fond of it herself.

Her nervousness dwindling away now that she'd found someone she knew, Ivory burst into the most words she'd said all day. "There was the wedding, Arya's brother you know, and that was loads of fun...Oh and we ended up going on a family vacation. Hit the beach, some amusement parks that were fantastic. One of them even almost put the Gringott's carts to shame. Almost. And then..." She took a quick breath and let it out in more words. "My little brothers and I stayed with our new great aunt while my parents went to research some plant or other in Italy. Which was interesting to say the least. Much cleaning... Tell me do I smell of moth balls and old people? Because I honestly feel like I spent enough time in the attic for the smell to be infused in my skin. " Exhaling a sigh that sent a tendril of hair flying away from eyes, she shook her head ruefully at the tedious memories of her great aunt and her disapproving demeanor on everything that was her. "But anywho, then we all met up here in London for shopping and whatnot and then I got my letter and well you could've knocked me over with a feather with how surprised I was to have a badge. Aaand you wouldn't believe-"

The Head Boy.

And she was right to have found him at the Ravenclaw end, he was with the female prefect by the looks of it. The badge was hard to miss on his uniform and the seventeen year old approached him with a smile. "Thought I'd come introduce myself, we'll probably be working a lot with each other this term" she smiled softly, trying not to let her current mood bring her down. "Well I'm Trixie. Trixie Malfoy, Head Girl obviously" she glanced down at her own badge and then back up.

She glanced across at the prefect and smiled at her too.

She cut off her rambling politely as the Head girl approached them. Which was probably a good thing considering she'd probably just broken the record for the amount of "And then's" said in one small span of time. Her summer now forgotten she and glad to see that the older girl was in a slightly happier mood, Ivory smiled back cheerily. "Hi, Trixie." They'd met but it probably wasn't under the best of circumstances and there'd been sooo many epople in that compartment; Maybe she should introduce herself again...
"I don't think I introduced myself very well on the train, sooo....Hello officially, I'm Ivy."

"Aha so that's where you were." There was no doubt in her mind who the culprits were considering she herself loved to partake in the same conversations. Sadly she'd spent most of the train ride just roaming around so she'd probably escape the Ravenclaw table in a bit to go spend some quality time with her best friend. But for now..."For what it's worth I think its a justifiable excuse." Grinning at the head girl, she looked back and forth between the two of them."So guys how does it feel to be head people?"

Emily saw Keeley now, and she was talking to another girl. She slid over and introduced herself to the girl "Hello, my name is Emily!" she said smiling, Her wild long blonde hair once again fell into her face and Emily grabbed a paisly scarf and pulled it back from her face. "What is yours?" she asked extending her right hand in greeting. her wrist had silver bangles that matched the ones around her ankles. Her bare feet felt the chill of the stone floor and she smiled kindly. She really wished Emilya was here, but since it had been two years since her death she decided to drag her mind away from that thought and keep it on the pressent situation.

Emily smelled of fresh air, having spent her entire summer in the Gypsy village, and every summer and vacation since third year, the smell seemed to stay with her.

Satine turned a little bit startled as a new girl introduced herself...man there were tons of peeps this term. "O Howzit! It's nice to meet you Emily, I'm Satine, sixth year!" she said holding out her right hand for a shake.

"Welcome to Ravvie!" she said with pride as she reached for a pitcher and poured herself some more pumpkin juice. She took a quick sip and then placed it back down.

"So Emily where are you from?" she said with her usual sparkling smile as she pushed a bright purple stray bang behind her left ear with her left hand.

She missed running bare foot (like she was now) through the fields and snapping the twigs under her feet. Her feet had toughened from spending so much time outside. She missed her aunt (there were many greats before the title, but far more than Emily cared to remember) she missed being called Vadoma by her fellow gypsies. It was the village her mother was from, it was her past and her pressent, and because of her aunt her future. She had a satchel around her waist with intricate designs that she had made that summer, it contained tarot cards, a rune set, an antique tea cup, a pack of loose tea and a silk scarf all inherited by her.

Emily desperately hoped that in transportation that her crystal ball, inside her trunk, was not hurt. She inherited it as well, it was over a hundred years old. She also hoped her albino ferret, Karma, was okay up in the dorm. She missed her Kneazle Bubbles, but she had stayed behind in the village.

Emily looked around her, she must look a sight! She wore a white peasant blouse, a black scrap-skirt she had made from black fabric scraps she had gathered all summer and her ravenclaw robe. She also wore no shoes and the bottom of her feet looked dark from their toughness.

A year ago Daniel wouldn't have believed that he could miss hogwarts this much. He missed his friends, the great hall, hogsemede even the homework. At first Daniel had thought going home three months before the holidays would be fun and at first it had been. He hadn't known why he'd been pulled out of school. Carolyn picked him up from the station and bought him some ice creem but then she told him dad was ill. That worried Daniel . For the next five months he was alone at home with dad. Carolyn told him that no one else had time to look after him. Barry would visit every few days and Carolyn every two weeks but he was left mostly on his own.

A week ago dad had started getting better so Daniel finally convinced dad to let him go to school after Barry promised to check on him once every day.

So finally Daniel was back after 6 months and he just wanted to put everything behind him so he sat down and tried to see if any of his friends were here

While Daniel was surveying the hall his eyes fell on an older girl who wasn't wearing shoes. Poor her. ”Do you want my shoes?” he asked as kindly as he could manage. Hopefully she wouldn't take offence. This was one of the first times he had ever been this nice to a stranger hopefully it wouldn't be the last

"Puddlemere United, me too!" she exclaimed a little to loudly. But it was true, she loved them. She laughed. "Heh, yeah. They're my favorite..." She smirked a little when he brought up the Holyhead Harpies. Of cooourse. "Oh riiight. And not just because it's a team full of women, right?" she teased. Riiight.

Ellie blinked. Who knew muggles had so much to do. Ah, basketball! That's what that was called. All she knew was that there was an orange ball and hoop. Other than that it was very boring. She recognized the name of football because she'd always thought it was odd that they never actually used their feet... "Huh. Okay. Sounds cool, though I don't know most of them." she said with a light laugh. "I do know soccer though. I like watching it, though I'm horrible at playing." she shrugged.

"I'm sure you'd look better in one, though," Dallin said, winking. He would just think that, because there was no way he was going to test his theory. ...Anyway, enough of the dress talk? On to something more interesting and less embarrassing.

"No way!" He laughed lightly at her enthusiasm. "Well, no, of course not." he shook his head like that was an awful idea, but was having a hard time keeping the smile off of his face. "I'm not that shallow." Aaaand that was a big fat lie.

He laughed at her expression, but looked away incase she thought he was actually laughing at her. (Eh, there is a difference between the two things). He nodded when she said she liked soccer. That sport was pretty popular everywhere, wasn't it? "We should play some time, maybe. I'm not too good either." It sounded like a fun thing to do... until he realized that he didn't have a soccer ball with him, and probably no one else did either. Eh. Oh well.

Second year; so Dallin had been kind of right. Well, he was right the sense that she wasn't a sixth or seventh year, so that was good. "I'm a fourth year," he told her with a nod. "I'm a transfer, though, so it's my first year here." That greeting was getting really old. Maybe he shouldn't tell people that unless they asked or something.

Starting to feel somewhat bored, Evangeline walked from the Slytherin table, and stopped at the Ravenclaw table. It was somewhere to go, and she was pretty sure that she didn't yet know anyone from Ravenclaw house. It didn't seem so crowded, as well.

So here she was.

Emily smiled, "Hello satine, I'm a fifth year." Emily gave one of her signature mysterious smiles. "I am from Canada... I used to live in my fathers mothers house with my parents in New Brunswick, but now I live in a gypsy village in a small field in the middle of a large forest in NB still." Emily laughed. "How about you darling?" She asked.

Soon, Ben and Jessica got their robes. From then, she knew he's from the Eagles. She was happy to meet witty boy she thinks.

Time for Feast has come... And she was really looking forward for food. She was to go to her table but she went with Ben instead. Jessica doesn't know, what's with Ben, but she just got the feeling and the mood to be with this little boy. She thought he could be his Hogwarts little bro.

Ben was glad that Jessica had opted to lead him to his table even though he had noted that she was actually a Gryffindor. The hall was full of people which made Ben very nervous. Even more than the people, the fact that he had no idea what was going on bothered him.
It occured to him that since Jessica was a sixth year, she could probably help him with that. He turned to her and asked, "So, what exactly happens now?"

So here she was.

Satine glanced up from her conversations and saw a Green rober headed their way sitting down just a few chairs down. She smiled towards the girl, "Howzit, I'm Satine, sixth Year Ravvie." she said with pride as she waved at the newcomer to the table.

She shimmied up closer to Fallon on her right side and said, "Here come sit down here by us so we can talk some more before the food gets here," as she said this her stomach growled loudly and through giggles she said, "which hopefully will be soon."

Lexi was trying to make her way back to the Gryffindor table after her little stop off at the Huffie table... too bad it was all jammed up and she had to pass through the Ravenclaw area to make it. Sighs.

Spotting a Slytherin girl looking rather bored and a bit out of place Lexi smiled brightly. "Hey there!" she said as she bounced up beside her and extended her hand. She may as well make a Slytherin ally if she could.. other than Salander anyway. Hehe. "I'm Lexi Denver," she told the girl.

Satine was in awe of her background."Wow as if Germany wasn't cool enough...a gypsy caravan...that is crazy cool" she said staring at the girl, "So that means that you're the first gypsy I've ever met?" she said letting her statement fade off like a question.

"O my rents moved to England during my first year here at Hogwarts. My mom works for the Department of Education and my pops is the CEO of a company that the Parliament contracts out to." she said it almost like she was reading it...the first few days she always had to repeat the same stories so it almost became monotonous. "But I actually grew up in Texas!" she said with her thick Texas accent excitedly....this was the best part...she always loved the way peeps looked at her on that one.

Keeley giggled in excitement. She got her own choice of any of the superdeduperawesome quills? Yes! Adjusting her large, nerdy glasses, (they weren't actually for bad vision, she just thought that they were cute.) she rifled through the little box. Ooh, there was a bright pink one, and one with black and white stripes, and a peacock one, and.. this may take a while.

Keeley gave the girl a small smile. Her history was kida weird, and not always as wonderful as she made it sound. But learning Divination at the gypsy caravan certainly was the life for her. Of course, they always ate a lot of traditional gypsy junk, so a good old fashioned Hogwarts feast was definately in order. "Thanks. I have a whole lot of gypsy artifacts in my trunk. I could show you later, if you want." Yep, she had a whole bunch of cool, gypsy-ish junk.

"Wait- you're American? That's so cool!" Keeley had thought her accent was kinda weird, but didn't say anything. "I went to New York back in my second year, but I've never heard much about Texas. Is it cool over there?" But nothing's cooler than the UK. Except for maybe Narnia. Yep, Narnia wins. Nothing's cooler than Narnia.

Was this girl normal? Well obviosly not she wasn't wearing shoes by choice but unormal was intresting and intresting was good. ”Really?” asked Daniel suprised ” Why's that?”

"O Canada, AY!" she said with her best Canadian accent which wasn't very good through her thick Texas one. "Well, I'm originally from Texas but my rents moved to England when I started Hogwarts as a firstie way back when, but we go visit constantly since that's where all of my family is." she said with a little nod of her head. "My mom works at the Department of Education and my pops is the CEO of some company that the Parliament contracts out to." Satine said going through the same introductions that she said a million times at the first of the term. She pictured them all having a dry erase board with their introductions written on them tied around their necks for others to read as they first met and smile a little bit more than usual.

I'll have to come visit the firstie's dorms at some point...I haven't been there in ages." she said excitedly...she'd never seen anything Gypsy past what they had on Muggle movies which probably wasn't accurate anyways.

"Yes American to the bone." she said holding up her right arm and acting like she had muscles which she didn't. "OOOO really the New York school? Last term I studied abroad and got spend six weeks there...it was lots of fun, but I am sooo happy to be back at Hogwarts." she paused for a moment and thought about the Texas question....

"Well if you mean cool as in Awesome well yes it's that...but if you mean cool as in cold...it gets pretty cold up in the Northern tip of Texas, but I'm from San Antonio which is..weelll...kind of in the middle and it stays pretty just moderate I guess...just rains a lot there...but not even really alot compared to here." she paused hoping she wasn't rambling on and on because she could do that about Texas and America.

Em's eyes widened abit upon hearing Dallin was a transfer student. She hadn't met anyone that had transfered into the school. Well, at least no one that had shared this information with her. But then again, nearly of the people had met last year were first years, so there was no room for transferring. "Really?" she asked smiling. "Where did you transfer from?"

She shimmied up closer to Fallon on her right side and said, "Here come sit down here by us so we can talk some more before the food gets here," as she said this her stomach growled loudly and through giggles she said, "which hopefully will be soon."

"Hey." Evangeline smiled at the very friendly Ravenclaw girl. "Evangeline, sixth year Slytherin." She replied. She seemed to be meeting a lot of people in her year, which was rather a good thing.

Spotting a Slytherin girl looking rather bored and a bit out of place Lexi smiled brightly. "Hey there!" she said as she bounced up beside her and extended her hand. She may as well make a Slytherin ally if she could.. other than Salander anyway. Hehe. "I'm Lexi Denver," she told the girl.

There were a lot of rather friendly people over here, it seemed, except this time it was a Gryffindor. "Hello." She said, shaking the girl's hand. "Evangeline Benford, it's good to meet you." She said.

"My mom works at the Department of Education and my pops is the CEO of some company that the Parliament contracts out to." Satine said going through the same introductions that she said a million times at the first of the term. She pictured them all having a dry erase board with their introductions written on them tied around their necks for others to read as they first met and smile a little bit more than usual.

"Gypsy artifacts...no way." Satine said and then thought did I just say that...wow...."Yes that would be great. I'll have to come visit the firstie's dorms at some point...I haven't been there in ages." she said excitedly...she'd never seen anything Gypsy past what they had on Muggle movies which probably wasn't accurate anyways.

Emily laughed when Satine tried to speak in a Canadian accent, the way she said Eh so was not right! "Yes I am 100% Canadian Eh!" She said, laughing. "Oh that's cool! My father runs a large maple syrup manufacturer thing... anyway he makes a lot fo money haha! Mum works for the ministry, but I live with my aunt in the gypsy village, mum visits a lot but you know she can't be there all the time. My aunt is the knowing one in the village, in other words the expert on divination, all forms in fact. I am in training to become the new knowing one."

Satine shook her head, "Yes very sad and no one there understood why other schools would learn about Muggles...it was just sooo odd." she said quickly, and luckily Fallon changed the subject quickly with the thought of heels and jewelery.

Satine's face lit up when she saw the sparkly purple wrapping paper. "OOOOO for me? Fallon you shouldn't have!" she said giving her friend a huge hug. She had soooo missed her friends here at Hogwarts. She slowly unwrapped the gift and was so excited at what was inside. The necklace was just...welll...just perfect..."O Fallon, it's just beautimous!" she said holding it up so it sparkled in the candles on the roof. Satine instantly put it on. "How does it look?" she asked rubbing her fingers over the purple flowers.

Fallon nodded. It was really sad that no one understood that. Muggles were always going to be around. She saw nothing wrong with them. Muggle Studies was one of her favorite classes after all.

Fallon grinned. "I had too. I couldn't go away to Italy for a whole year without getting you guys stuff!" Plus it gave her a reason to shop. And shopping was fun. She watched as Satine quickly opened the box, revealing the shiny necklace inside. "I'm glad you like it." She had a feeling Satine would like the purple flowers. When she put it on, Fallon smiled, glad she'd gotten her friend something she liked. "It looks great!"

Fallon looked around and back towards the Slytherin table. Aaron still wasn't there. "I think I'm going to head back to the Slytherin table for now. It was great to see you again." She gave her friend a hug before returning ot her respective table.
