 The REAL Sorting Hat: "Ravenclaw!" This monkey is bananas.
A loud crack reverberated through the area as a lone figure appeared, as if out of no where. She wore a dark robe of pink, something she had recently purchased in the city before coming. Her long brown hair gently moved in the slight breeze and she smiled as she looked around. Ah summer at last Ari thought as she stood waiting for the others to show. Perfect time to see where exactly she was, if she even apparated in the right spot. Glancing up she squinted, wishing she hadn’t forgotten her sunglasses at her place before leaving.
Looking back down, she smiled as she saw the house in question. Quaint she thought with a smile as she shook her head, wondering here Jaoni was. That guy would be the death of her she mused chuckling to herself as she hefted her bag to her other shoulder just as another crack sounded, depositing two figures. “About time!” she exclaimed, walking over and helping the younger boy up. “You okay William?” She asked, glancing at the younger one.
William sighed as he closed his eyes, hanging on for dear life as Jaoni began concentrating on the location they were going to. He was going to Hawaii! Ho couldn’t believe it, it was his biggest wish to go to the tropics, soak up the sun … and pull some interesting pranks. He knew exactly what to do when he got there too, though he knew his cousin wouldn’t let him throw the stink bombs.
Feeling Jaoni tense up beside him he pictured the sun beating down on his face warming him. He hoped he got a nice tan before school started. That would impress the ladies he mused, a grin forming on his face as he felt the pull in his abdomen. Praying to whatever was around him to get there safely he almost missed the landing and fell with a thump on the ground. Sure enough Ari was already there and hurried over to help. “I’m fine Tinkerbell.” He replied, his voice full of sarcasm.
Ari growled low in her throat, her eyes going darker. “Don’t. Call. Me. Tinkerbell Will.” She demanded, glancing at Jaoni who had yet to speak. Feeling a bit rambunctious she grinned an evil grin, and pounced on William burying him in a huge bear hug. “Aw my wittle muffin man!” she exclaimed, before jumping back and laughing hysterically. Aw it felt great to have no worries in the world.
Jaoni stood straight as he watched the two play wrestle, a smirk on his face. In the three years he had known Ari and William he had never seen them act like that. Of course he just found out he was related to them but still it felt weird knowing there was weird people in their family. “You guys are strange. Tinkerbell and muffin man?” He said in a slight Russian accent. “Is this some strange American tradition?” He mused, quirking a blonde eyebrow as he laughed.
William pushed Ari off and turned his head, sticking his tongue out at Jaoni, not bothering to answer. He knew Ari would do that soon enough. Instead the sounds of voice came over the breeze and he looked left, seeing the house again. “Hey, how about we go to the house and say hi? I’m hungry!” he exclaimed, before jumping up, grabbing his bag and running off.
Ari calmed down enough but burst out laughing again as she heard Jaoni ask the question/ “No…” she giggled, her green eyes bright once more as she picked up her bag and threw it over her shoulder, watching as William ran off towards the house. ”It’s just a fun little nickname. You have those in your family, don’t you?” she asked as she nodded towards the house, where she began walking.
Minutes later they made it to the house and she stopped, taking in the view. "Wow." she whispered, glancing over to where William was standing in awe. She saw some of the others and called out, "Hey guys, guess who's here?" in a cheerful voice.
