"Nice to meet you too, Zoey." ... Was the kid thinking what she thought she was? Gah... She was. Iris could see it in her eyes! "Oh... And it's the Goddess Iris... not the coloured part of your eye. My parent's aren't crazy." She winked and grinned, then turned back to Trixie...

Yup. She was just going to let Zoey convince herself that Iris is a mind reader... Hehe.


Iris looked past Trixie when she heard part of a conversation that was going on just a few seats down. "You must also be lost then. Because rude people do not belong at this table." She said, loudly and clearly, gesturing to the Slytherin table. "And Hufflepuff's aren't "Dimwits." She stood up, and walked up to the boy. Then sat down next to him.

"That Hufflepuff student has every right to be sat here with their Slytherin friends. No one has the right to tell them to leave. Especially not you." The prefect glared at the boy threateningly. "If you don't like seeing members of different houses and backgrounds befriending each other, and sitting with each other, then I'm afraid you've come to the wrong school. Hogwarts doesn't live up to the old stereotypes any more because we've learned that they do nothing for friendships or our education, and people who try to bring those stereotypes back don't do well."

Looking at the Hufflepuff, Iris smiled warmly. "You stay sat here with your friends. Don't take any notice of anyone who tells you otherwise."

And with that, Iris got up and moved back to her original seat, not giving the Sltherin boy another look.
