Katie walked along the corridor making her way to the pumpkin patch, she as getting quite tired though actually, she sat down on the ledge and started to read a book, ahh the wonders of reading.

Alyssa walked down the corridor, with nothing to do. Going outside wouldnt hurt her. When she waas walking, she saw a girl sitting down reading, who was a slytherin too. It wouldnt hurt to talk to her, she thought. "Hi, whacha reading, by the way, my names Alyssa!" she said with a smile.

Katie smiled as she looked up to see a girl who went by the name of Alyssa, Katie wasn't in a mood to talk, but she didn't want to be rude about it, "Katelyn Star" She said, of course that was her name, not the book.

"Soundss cool. Whats your name?" she said smiling. Katelyn Star was a strange name for a book...... oh wait, that was probaly her name. Well it doesnt matter anyways.. Alyssa could care less about what a girl was reading. She just wanted to start a conveersation with someone.

Fallon giggled at Eiri's enthusiasm. She raised an eyebrow in questioning. "Really? I would've never thought of that." Then she mentioned someone that Fallon was unfamiliar with. "Who's Thiago?" She had never heard the name before. Maybe he was new or something. "Yeah, pickpockets were kind of a problem. My dad never let me out of his sight though so I didn't get anything taken." Thankfully. She wouldn't want to have lost her camera.

Fallon shook her head. "I don't think so. His name doesn't sound familiar." And Fallon usually wasn't that bad with names. So that's why she asked if I knew him... She giggled a little at the enthusiasm in her voice. "That's a bummer. But how far off is that?" It would suck if it was longer than a year.

Amadeus simply nodded at Braeden's speech about the future. Those words were typical of so many students at the school that it was unbelievable, at least to Deus. It was no wonder why the percentage of rich, successful people in the world was considerably smaller than the percentage of the average and poor folk. With attitudes like this, with no drive or passion, people got nowhere. For Amadeus, he had both the passion and the comfortable family situation. Even if he slacked off, he would still probably take over the family business. But being a Ravenclaw, he chose not to. Deus would never deign to act like the rich partying wizards and witches that wasted their money on vice, although Amadeus did like to have occasional fun.

"Well, what do you like? You must have some interests." He spoke the last few words derisively, almost as if he were speaking to a young child and that having hobbies was one of the most fundamental elements of life. Braeden wasn't necessarily like the other students: he had some weird charm about him. He might even be destined for something great in his life; if only he would break out of his shy shell, maybe he could progress.

Isobel messed with the hem of her skirt as she walked down the corridor. She had a problem; she thought he was lost. This was, after all, her first day, so she didn't know her way around the school. Hopefully she would eventually end up someplace she did recognize, or find someone she knew that could direct her the right way to do. Fortunately, she didn't wasn't on a schedule, and she didn't have a specified location that she was going to.

Coraline looked around hoping to find a friend or two, she was lost, terrible lost, as always, but then it was good to see a friend a that moment, maybe she knew where to go? "hello Isobel" she waved walking up to her.

Isobel had not been expecting anyone to say her name. She spun around and did a ninja pose before recognizing who had spoke. "Bonjour Cora," she said with a smile. "How are you?"

Braeden could just see the judgements oozing out of the boy beside him. Deus didn't need to say a word, Brae could almost read his thoughts. But he wasn't offended; that was almost impossible to do. There was no way to insult Braeden; it was hard to wipe that goofy smile off his face. However, he couldn't help feeling a bit like a child being lectured by a strict parent when Amadeus asked what he liked, saying that he must've had some interests.

Hmm.

Braeden looked off into space thoughtfully as they walked for the next few moments, trying to figure out an answer for that question. What were his interests? Besides food, movies, and Divinations? He wasn't very good at potions, he was clumsy with his wand, and dealing with plants usually left him in the Hospital Wing. What was Braeden good at? "I think I'm going to get back to you on that one," he decided finally. "I'm still trying to decide which one I like better: movies or predicting the future," he said, and it was difficult to tell if he was kidding around or being serious. Though knowing Brae, he was probably serious. "But what about you?" he asked Deus. "You're going to take over the family business, but do you like making wands?" he asked, and upon realizing that Deus's role in the business probably wouldn't be to make wands, he added, "Or handling finances and that sort of thing?" He could see Deus being a businessman, though. He had that cold-blooded sort of thing going on, and if he was in Ravenclaw so he was obviously not dumb.

Amadeus had to stop his show of contempt before it began. Even though it was hard for even him to admit it to himself, he could be a big prick sometimes and especially with Mathieu Moreau dead and gone, he would need to be more polite and non-self-centered if he wanted to make new acquaintances and friends. "Well, I'm sure you'll get there someday," He spoke, his tone sounding less forced than it really was. And once again, the tables were turned and Amadeus was now the subject of the conversation. Braeden had indeed asked a very good question. Did Amadeus enjoy the family business?

It was true that he enjoyed the financial aspect of it. Even though the goblins at Gringotts and internationally could be pains in ones tush, the money was worth it in the end. "I suppose so... yes," He commented, scratching his chin as he looked down and he scanned the ground that they strolled on. "As for the wand business itself, it's not horrid. I prefer the financial aspect over the manufacturing aspect, but all-in-all I can't say anything too negative about it." Just as he finished speaking, the clock tower in the courtyard struck noon and echoed throughout the campus. "Oh dear," He bit his lower lip and glanced up at Braeden. "I should get to studying. It's only the second day, I know, but NEWTs aren't exactly things to be procrastinated on, especially this early in the term. I need to-"

He paused, pursing his lips momentarily. Would he have the gall... would he deign to speak what he was thinking? "Would you like to accompany me to the library? I mean, if you don't mind. You could possibly help me in Divination, the only subject I kind of struggle with." He stopped, knowing that he had spoken too quickly and had made a fool out of himself.

Shhhhhh....Shh...

With each step Leo took his dinosaur slippers made that faint Shhhh sound. Why was he wearing slippers? Because they were comfy. He was sure he was going to get a reputation as the guy wearing dinosaur slippers and he didn't really care. It was better then being a nerd,right? Right, anything was better than being known as the nerd.

Right now back to exploring in the dinosaur slippers, Leopold kept walking until....his eyes landed on a girl. Now, he wasn't staring at how beautiful she was.Nope,Leo wasn't in for that cheesy love at first sight stuff even if the girl WAS pretty. from what he could see The thing that caught his attention was the banana placed....in front of her mouth. Most people would have found that odd but Leo thought something different.

HE WAS THINKING HOW TOTALLY AWESOME THAT WAS!!

Shhhh...shhhh...shhhh....

His little feet moved faster with each step he took, running up to the banana smile girl. He took a HALT when he was beside her. "I LIKE YOUR BANANA."Leo grinned.

Ohhhhh yes.

Leo put his hands in his pockets, grin still on his face. "I like oranges beter though..."But oranges didn't make the funny smile thing so....yeah.

GIGGLE

As she walked past something of reflectory properties, Kaia glanced in, and giggled at her reflection. She looked positively stupid, in all truth. The fact she was saying nothing made it even funnier, because if she did, her mouth would move behind the banana, and it wouldn't be seen that it was her talking. Oh, banana. What a lovely joy you are. Tasty, and helpful. And also yellow, too. So she was all huffflepuffy aswell.

The brunette only had one hand rested up holding the banana under it's middle, and the other swung by her side as she walked. She hadn't heard, or saw anyone around her in a while, which was unusual, because usually Hogwarts was crawling with students, wasn't it? Maybe they were all just busy doing something boring, like studying, or not climbing trees.

Until some random kid almost-practically-JUSTLIKEMAGIC-appeared near her, and was commenting on her banana. "I like it too." She spoke from behind the yellow fruit, after moving it a centimetre away from her mouth to give her room to not end up with muffled speech. "I... like your slippers? They're cool. Dinosaurs are cool. Spiderman would be cooler, though." Like she had a spiderman teddy. It was a big girl teddy though!

Kai eyed him carefully, and lowered the banana a little, before smiling up at him. "Oranges would make good eyes. A fruit face."

Braeden listened attentively as his new acquaintance explained to him his view over his fate of becoming the head of a large family business, and how he preferred the financial aspect of it to the manufacturing. Brae smiled faintly, having figured that bit on his own; before he could ask any more questions, though, the clock tower began to echo throughout school grounds, and apparently reminding Amadeus that he had to be gone. As the older boy went off about how he needed to get studying for his NEWTs and this and that, Braeden couldn't help but be surprised, his dark eyebrows raising. Deus wasn't quite as nonchalant as he seemed, was he? He truly was a Ravenclaw. Brae had a feeling that if it wasn't for his obvious thirst for studying, the boy would have ended up in Slytherin instead.

And then he was inviting him - Braeden, of all people - to join him and help him out with Divination.
Braeden's brown eyes widened to saucers - he was kidding, right? Amadeus Kipling wouldn't ask someone as goofy as Braeden for help! It was absurd. But no, it seemed our cowardly lion had heard his Ravenclaw classmate right. Braeden couldn't help being flattered. "Sure, I'll help you," he agreed with a lopsided grin. "Let's go."

For Fee <3
 

Sophia shivered. Why does it get cold in Spetember here?! she thought. In Italy it was probably still really warm. *mind pout* Oh, well. She wondered where all of her friends had disappered too. They all seemed to magically go missing. And she still hadn't seen Fee! Oh, well. She walked down the long dark scary corridor.

Amadeus became a bit less embarrassed as the Gryffindork took up his offer. "Splendid," He mused, motioning for them to turn back so they could re-enter the castle and leave the grounds. "I hope it's not too much of a fuss for you." He commented, a bit more of a bounce in his step as they walked along. He began to speak more animatedly, although not losing his cool nonchalance, as they made their way back to the stone confines of the castle and prepared to get to work.

Elyon was sitting on the ledge reading, when she saw a girl a bit older than her sit down by her. The girl started to read too! She decided that making a friend couldn't hurt, and she closed her book and walked over to the girl. She sat down and smiled, holding out her arm to shake hands with her. "Hi! I noticed you were reading and I thought I'd come say hi! I'm Elyon, it's nice to meet you! What are you reading?"

Eirian smiled as Fallon laughed. She wasn't sure why, but it was friendly, so she didn't mind in the least. "Thiago is my boyfriend," she answered happily, her smile too wide as she thought of her love. "He followed me from Brazil after I moved here so that we may be together." Eep! She still loved thinking about it, even if that had happened over a year ago.

"I see," Eiri said, nodding. "I used to pickpocket in Brazil when times got tough, but there were not that many of us that did. Rio is the worst of the country. I think it is because of the complex the tourists cause. The most beautiful and the most dangerous... Naturally, that is where I lived. I worry for Brazil sometimes, but it will be fine... I am sure of it."

Eirian was a bit glad Fallon didn't know Jay... "I only asked as he is friends with so many girls that I barely know them all," she explained. Merlin, it was annoying. She hated having to deal with girls that Jayce was friends with. Often, she had to deal with girls he was more than friends with. "The last friend I made ended up as his girlfriend. It was horrid." Urgh. That whole ordeal... "My birthday is January thirteenth, so it is not terribly far off. The only issue that I might run into will be Christmas... I cannot ask for money. Not after everything else that has been done for me."

Fallon nodded in recognition. She should have guessed, but she didn't want to assume anything. "Awwww." Fallon couldn't supress it. That was just so adorable and she wished a boyfriend would do that for her. "That's really sweet. You are one lucky girl." She hardly knew Eiri, but she was still very lucky.

Fallon nodded. So this girl was kind of a trouble maker. She would have to make sure to keep an eye on her, just to be on the safe side. "I guess whatever you had to do to keep yourself going." She listened as she talked about how she worried for her country. "It can't be completely horrible so there's always a chance."

Fallon chuckled. "Ah, makes sense." She would also have to watch out if he met a guy named Jayce. He seemed like he would be a real ladie's man. She felt kind of bad. That had to be something hard to go through. One of your friend's dating your guy friend...never mind. She was going through that right now with Aaron and Iris and it wasn't that bad. "That stinks. Well, maybe you could make homemade presents using magic." Magic really came in handy sometimes.

"We were all each other had for a long time," Eirian said, blushing happily as she thought about Thiago. "I think he and I are going to get married, but I don't want to jinx it, so forget I said anything." Hehe. She wasn't going to go around telling everyone that he already asked for her hand... Only Jayce knew that. She was going to keep it that way.

She was glad, though, as Fallon didn't seem too put out by some of her past. "My dad left me there, so yeah," Eiri sighed. "I did what I could. I am not proud of it, but not ashamed, either. When I get my inheritance, I will donate so much of it to my home..." That would make up for her petty thievery. It had to.

"He is sweet, though," Eirian admitted. "I understand why he so easily makes friends... and girlfriends..." Sigh. Why was Jay such a likable person? It was obnoxious. Having a friend everyone loved was rather difficult. She was that person in Rio. And now? Not so much. "That is a good idea! I am not sure what to make, unfortunately... Perhaps I will need suggestions when the time comes."

Fee was on her way to the courtyard.Really it was the best place to find some of your friends or jus hang out.Sooner or later there always someone showed up.Looking around for any familiar looking students she sighed. Where were her friends?!Maaaan being alone was sooo boring. But just as she wanted to shake her head, the blonde noticed a girl in front of her.

Ohhhh the one she was looking for,hehe.This was fate.With a smile on her face the Slytherin tried to catch up with her Gryffie friend."Heeey Sophia",she called out waving.They hadnt seen eachother in sooo long it was terrible.What a pitty the party the summer got cancelled."Whats going on girlie?"

Fallon grinned as the girl blush. She was a very sappy person and it was adorable that Eiri was blushing. "At least you had each other. It would really suck if you didn't have anyone." She chuckled at her next comment. "I didn't hear anything." Fallon hoped that the girl caught on that she was joking. Otherwise, that would just be embarrassing.

Fallon frowned slightly at nodded her head. There really wasn't much else she could say about that. She would hopefully never know what it felt like to be so low that you could only survive by being a thief.

Fallon nodded. She really didn't know any guys like that. She was still going to keep an eye out for this Jayce guy. "So I'm guessing he's one of those people everyone likes?" Sometimes those people were just annoying. Fallon grinned. "I've had to do stuff like that before so I won't mind helping. That is...if you want my help."

Eirian chuckled. "There you go," she said, smiling in gratitude. She wouldn't say it, but she was rather relieved to meet someone who didn't grimace at the thought of Thi. Sigh. "Ridiculously so!" she exclaimed in regards to Jayce. "I wish for once he would be my friend and no one else's." Eiri had always been very territorial... She had made her claim on Jayce as her best friend, and people would either respect it or pay the very, very high consequences. "That would be amazing," she added. "Thank you in advance!"

"So... What about you? I have said much about my existence, but beyond Italy I do not know a thing about you, Fallon!"
