| Term 29: Sept - Dec 2011 Term Twenty-Nine: Year of the Elf (Sept. 2075 - June 2076) |

08-09-2011, 01:04 AM
| | Gryffindor House Table Eat, drink, and be merry, O Lions. Classes begin again tomorrow.
The glittering night sky is clear and visible through the enchanted ceiling, and the floating candles bedeck the entire hall in a warm golden light. All seems well with the world, aside from the empty plates still waiting for food to appear. And what's this? The silverware is tarnished and askew, almost as if thrust on the table willy-nilly. Take a seat and search for a clean spoon while the Sorting Hat ceremony commences. The House Elves have done their clean up work quickly and effectively, and the silverware and dishes are now set to right. |

Tucking into a chicken leg, she grinned at all the students around her, "my name is Emily!" She said with her mouth full. "Hey! We met on the train, remember?"

"You are making my brain unhappy little person." Yeah. So. Grrrr.
...
Lexi shrugged a bit... SHe had told the girl to have a seat hadn't she? Oh well. Some people didn't GET that she was being as nice as she could. Ronnie felt kinda stupid for leaving. She wanted to make that girl feel better but all she was doing was making her worse. She thought on ideas to help her out or something.....she then, feeling very stupid, walked back up to her. "Er....I-I'm sorry for leaving like that. I just thought I had been annoying you or something. Please tell me what's bothering you?" she asked. Quote:
Originally Posted by sweetpinkpixie Kurumi giggled and tried not to blush too much. Her only saving grace at the moment was that Cookie Hater wasn't around to scowl or glare at her. Hopefully, the now Head Girl had gotten that out of her system on the train. If not...well...then this was going to be a reeeeeeeeeeeally awkward term. Especially when one considered that it was obvious that Walnut was in kitty love with the girl.
" Well, you have been known to land yourself in detention," she teased, sticking her tongue out slightly. Not that Kurumi would really be able to do that to Josh. She was pretty sure she didn't have that in her. " Oh, I nearly forgot...father says thank you for the letter...but....why did you even write my father in the first place?"
Over the course of everything that had happened last term, Kurumi had forgotten that she had asked her father to send bath supplies. Then again, she had no idea just how MUCH the man had sent.
" Glad to hear that," Kurumi smiled. She saw that Ronnie was focused on the Sorting taking place, so she ought to not bother the girl for now. It was always something fun to watch. " Enjoy the feast."
Kurumi offered the girl one last smile before continuing her way down the table.
" Nice to meet you Charles," she replied with a bow of the head. "You're welcome. Baking has always been a hobby of mine, so it makes me happy to see others enjoying them." Her smile brightened just a bit more. " My name is Kurumi and I hope you enjoy the feast. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. I am sure more first years will be joining us at the table. Many have already." She gestured down the table a bit.
Kurumi's smile faded. Yep, still the queen of terrible first impressions. His laughter went unnoticed by her as she looked down at her black school shoes. " S-S-S-Sorry," she stammered, flailing her arms around just a bit. When he had explained himself, Kurumi felt even worse. Of course that is what it had meant. Why would someone be given a nickname based on Audio and Visual? " Oh, um, right..."
Akward.
" Oh, well welcome to Hogwarts as well," she smiled, momentarily forgetting the awkward conversation from moments earlier. It was now that she noticed just how disgusting the dishes were. " You...don't suppose Scourgify would fix this, do you?" she asked picking up a dirty fork and turning it over in her hands.
" I would be a hypocrite if I did," she said, obviously relating to their abilities. Having been called one all her life, how could she possibly do the same to her best friend? That idea seemed utterly ridiculous. "And of course," she giggled, taking her wand out of her pocket. " And I'll make sure that no one else can hear." The spellwork was simple enough.
Kurumi nodded. Yep, he had it right and had even bowed back a little. Kurumi blushed just a bit and tried not to let her giggle become audible. " It's nice to meet you Paulie." For some reason, his name reminded her with that of a bird, but that would cause yet another silly first impression that she really didn't need nor want.
LEXI! Merlin had Kurumi missed her. She had enjoyed taking care of Rufus over the summer, and didn't really want to part with him, but, he was Lexi's monkey and not hers. She hadn't had time to give the now seventh year the gift she had bought in New York for her, but the look on her face right now signaled that the lioness might not be too excited about it anyway.
Still, Kurumi wasn't sure when she would get the next change to do so. No time like the present, right? "Lexi!" she chirped as she walked up behind the blonde and tapped her shoulder. " I...I never got the chance to give this to you back when I gave Rufus back."
She handed Lexi a small parcel.
" Valerie," Kurumi repeated, taking extra time to make sure that she said the V properly. " Nice to meet you."
Kurumi blushed a bit as she watched the girl much on her cookie. Perhaps the most satisfying part of it all was having others enjoy. Eating cookies alone was always kind of sad.
" I did," she nodded. " Baking has always been a hobby of mine." Ronnie smiled at the girl and finished the cookie. Ahh so good! She then watched the rest of the sorting. Quote:
Originally Posted by Jason Potter Weasley " Glad to see you again and congrats on being prefect" Willaim told Kurumi. " I am ready for my second term and I plan on being the top student this term, not only on Gryffindor, but the whole school" William said proudly to Kurumi.
" Welcome to Gryffindor" William smiled at the girl. "Are you excoted to be at HogWarts?' William asked her. " My name is William Starr, second year Gryffindor" he introduced himself to the girl.
" How is it going?" Willaim asked Ronnie." You need to sit up with yoru friends" Willaim said to Ronnie. " Unless I am not your freind" William teased Ronnie laughing hard. "Going good!" Ronnie said. "Right I guess I need to sit with my friends...?" Ronnie said feeling a slight bit confused. "Of course you're my friend!" Ronnie exclaimed laughing. Quote:

"Congrats on making Gryffindor!" she said grinning at her. She then began piling her plate with all the good food and began eating. "This food is SO good!" she said. "Go on, try it! It's delicious!"

Well at least when August had mentioned them before he knew he was at least talking some sense, maybe he wouldn't stick out as a Muggleborn as bad as he thought he would.
But he was already making new Gryffindor friends, making him happy he landed in this house since people seemed really nice so far. "Hello Nathan, I'm August a third year here in Gryffindor." he said pausing, deciding not to mention his lack of magic in his family unless asked. He continued to look around the enchanted hall, checking out the ceiling, floating candles and sea of kids roaming around the four long tables. Quote:

He absentmindedly fidgeted with the front of his robes... until he remembered that Destiny had his badge...
Whoops..
He glanced down at the silverware. Why was everything dirty? How was he supposed to eat potatoes? Then another, older kid began to look quizzically at his silverware too. Wanting to make a good impression on the older student, August scooted over to him and pointed at the dirty fork. "Yeah, word is the House Elves are on vacation. I'm August by the way. Third year, just sorted into Gryffindor." he held his hand out to shake the other guy's.

Selfish. Selfish. Selfish.
Upon hearing about her being the new editor, Orlando's face brightened with a huge smile. "Really? Oh I am so proud of you, Lexi" he said and took a seat beside her. "I just know .. you will do great!" Lexi waved her hand rather enthusiastically. Yes, yes. It was all well and good, but Lexi would rather be at home or on a beach somewhere than in the stifling robes looking at FILTHY dishes. It was all so BLAH.
" Thank you, Orlando. I will try my hardest. Jim made it pretty fool proof so I reckon it will be." Jim. She missed him already. " Thanks for being so... YOU about everything. At least someone is happy to see me back." Quote:

" Do you have a time turner? Because if you can fast forward through this year that would be super. Otherwise I cannot think of a thing to do to help me, love. Errr... welcome to Gryffindor and all that... unless you aren't a first year and in which case welcome back."
That was as nice as she was going to be. PERIOD. Feh.

Jordan shifted uneasily, "Yeah I'm better! Just a simple misunderstanding!" he didn't tell her what about though.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Brooks Robertser Gryffindor Fourth Year | Anyone! Send me a VM if you reply please<3 Ern's Walmart Greeter Brooklyn slid into an empty spot along the Gryffindor table. So, this was the house she'd be spending the next few years in. How.. interesting. The previously home-schooled girl grinned broadly as her bright blue eyes wandered the large hall, trying to spot a familiar face, but failing miserably. Sigh. Allowing her mind to wander a bit more, she wondered what houses Bailey, Nick and Paulie got into seeing as they hadn't gone to Hogwarts before either.
CRINGE.
There were OWLS. Flying ABOVE HER. EEEEEEEEEEEEE. She did not like this. Not one bit. She picked up a fork, ready to defend herself if any of those stupid birds decided to approach her.
But of course, not until after she picked it up did she notice just how dirty and disgusting it was. EWWWW.

"Hello! My name is Sage, I'm a first year," Sage said turning to look at the boy, "Yes, my mother said that usually the owls aren't that clumsy, I hope next year we'll get a better one! Why did your dad inspect your letter?" "Yeah, heres hoping for that, hee hee. And it is nice to meet you Sage. As for my dad, well, he is a muggle but he is a supernatural enthusiast. He wanted to look over my letter thoroughly because Hogwarts is a school of essentially the supernatural being that we learn how to use our real magic here. So he was just a bit over excited seeing a letter marked with the Hogwarts emblem. My parents work well together cause my mom happens to be infatuated with muggle stuff and thus I have experience in both worlds though I much perfer the wizarding one, hee hee". Quote:
Another person linked this mess to the House Elves? Well at least when August had mentioned them before he knew he was at least talking some sense, maybe he wouldn't stick out as a Muggleborn as bad as he thought he would.
But he was already making new Gryffindor friends, making him happy he landed in this house since people seemed really nice so far. "Hello Nathan, I'm August a third year here in Gryffindor." he said pausing, deciding not to mention his lack of magic in his family unless asked. He continued to look around the enchanted hall, checking out the ceiling, floating candles and sea of kids roaming around the four long tables.

"Oh hey, it's nice to meet you August, so what are favorite things to do, hobbies and what not?".

"Thank you, Orlando. I will try my hardest. Jim made it pretty fool proof so I reckon it will be." Jim. She missed him already. "Thanks for being so... YOU about everything. At least someone is happy to see me back."
Cue a quirked brow.
"Do you have a time turner? Because if you can fast forward through this year that would be super. Otherwise I cannot think of a thing to do to help me, love. Errr... welcome to Gryffindor and all that... unless you aren't a first year and in which case welcome back."
That was as nice as she was going to be. PERIOD. Feh. "Well my Grandma Hermione Granger did have a time turner in her third year. I don't know where it went but sorry don't got one." Ronnie said. "So it sounds like you don't wanna go through a new year of Hogwarts?" Ronnie asked. "Oh and thanks. I'm a second year..." she said feeling like some little kid. Quote:

Ronnie asked peering over all the heads of students towards the Hufflepuff table.

Plumeria didn't hesitate and began to pile her plate with bacon, eggs and a whole range of different and delicious-looking food. After she had begun to chew on something that was unknown to her - and realised that it was one of the most amazing and mouth-watering thing that had ever touched her lips, she looked up from her plate and anxiously glanced down the long wooden table. She could see lots of the first years that she had uttered only a few words to during the sorting also tucking into their food. Plumeria pushed her long blonde hair out of her face before looking over at the other house tables.
"Oh, erm...Ronnie?" she started looking at her sister. "I know school has only just started, but when will the quidditch try-outs start?" Plumeria was just determined to get on a broom. She loved quidditch more than most things in life, but she was already worried that she wouldn't make the team. After all, her Great-Uncle Harry was the only person she knew who made the team in his first year.

"Oh yes?" she asked turning to Plumeria, while chewing some delicious chicken. Ronnie thought. "I actually don't know, but I don't think first years can be on the quidditch team...but you still have like flying lessons and stuff." Ronnie said feeling a bit sorry for Plumeria that she had to disappoint her like this. Telling her that first years can't play quidditch. She knew Plumeria just loved quidditch (like her) But then she remembered great uncle Harry Potter, who had made it into Quidditch in his first year. She thought curiously. "I'm sorry sis. If you want, during Christmas break at home, we can play together! Father bought you the new Twigger 101 also! It's at home, since first years can't bring their brooms..." she said feeling sorry yet again for her sister.

He's that interesting in magical folk or, what did you call it, supernatural? I never learned much of the Muggle world, my dad's a Muggleborn but he never talks much of it," Sage said. She always thought some of the Muggle stuff was interesting, but her mum didn't like her going in the Muggle world, at least not alone. But Sage's mum had nothing against Muggles, she just didn't want Sage doing any accidental magic infront of them. Her mum said she could go into the Muggle world after her first year at Hogwarts. "So do you know what an Bike-cycle is?" |
