"Sure," he said slowly, "I would try to help people. Maybe I'll be able to once I get used to this place more." Even though he had last year to get used to the place...
He grinned when both girls mentioned sucking up to professors. "Is there something wrong with that?" He was joking, of course... well, sort of. "But, like you said Ivory, shows initiative." Yup. Good students like to meet their professors, right?
He smiled brightly when Ivory said they were 'official' friends. That was good to know. "I don't know what other duties my Guy-ish Fifth year-ness entitles," he said thoughtfully, "So I guess I'll just wait to see what else I'm called upon for." He was totally enjoying this, incase you couldn't tell.
He couldn't help but laugh at Ellie. "Yeah, not having friends is definitely a downer." And believe it or not he had not had friends at one point in his life. He did not want to go back to that.
His smile faded at Ellie's reply and his blue eyes got big and round. "I-" He didn't exactly know what to say to make her feel better, or even if he could say anything to make her feel better. "You don't have to be here..." he murmured, looking up and down the table to see if there was anywhere else she could sit.
Or... maybe she meant here as in Hogwarts... oh well.
Giggle. "No worries, though." Cuz he had a friend in her. And Ivory. BAM. And probably others that she didn't know, but they were of NO importance at this current time.
Meh. Ellie shooooook her head, "But I DO. To learn and stuff and stuff."
She glanced up at the Staff dias AGAIN. Little Professor should get here STAT. Now. SPOILER!!: Puff Quote:

Perhaps he was walking over to the Staff table, because, well, BOTH the pretty Healer and the awesome Groundskeeper were sitting together, so, they were practically calling for him to make a sudden appearance over there, but then something red caught his attention and he ventured elsewhere?
It seems very likely. That was probably what happened. And so he kept on walking, right? Actually, the boy was RIGHT, Ellie didn't have to be here, she was always welcomed at the Hufflepuff table, though, he wasn't sure if he wanted to have her in there, seeing how he was surrounded by first years all the time he's spent at his table.
Treyen regretted his decision of walking this way as soon as he arrived. But that didn't stop him from sitting between Ellie and this boy, whatever his name was. "Hey there, I'm Treyen Lockhart." He smiled, offering the boy his hand for a handshake. He wanted to add the 'Hufflepuff Prefect' part, but it was rather obvious, since the badge was right there. "You are?" he demanded, because the Hufflepuff wanted to know the name of the one occupying Ellie's attention at the moment. And...Ivy's too. But he didn't mind the Prefect.
In his attempt to get the Ravenclaw's name, he forgot to greet the most important one.
Ellie BEAM!GRINNED when she noticed the Hufflepuff coming towards their table. It had been FOREVER and a DAY since she saw him. AND even moreso, he sat RIGHTTHERE.
Right there...
...and didn't talk to her. "Watch the cameraaaa." Sure it was between her legs, but Treyen could have easily stepped on it, right? ...Maybe she should put it in her lap now?
And hi to you too, Lockhart. HMPH. SPOILER!!: Ivory Quote:

Heaving a big exaggerated sigh, she pointed to the at times obnoxiously shiny badge on her chest. "But this thing pretty much requires me to go and say "welcome" from Ravenclaw and "we'll all try our best to meet your expectations, hope you enjoy your term", yada yada yada." On that last part her hand came up to make the chicken clucking hand...at least that's what she knew it by.
Realizing it might be something only her little brothers would recognize, she brought her hand down with a slight blush. "But yeah....sometimes being a prefect is synonymous. I don't mind though. It means when firsties ask about how to approach certain professors and what I can answer from experience." That was a plus she supposed. Wait and see what else he's called for. Heh.
A little chuckle escaped her lips, and she glanced down. Why she did that, though she didn't really know. She'd been doing a lot of that lately. Reacting without thought. But why?
Pushing the questions to the back of her mind, Ivory lifted her gaze to his once more. "Once you get more used to the place?" She repeated belatedly, a bit confused. "Reading between the lines here a bit," Cue the lift of hand and the waving of the fingers that represent metaphorical lines of course. "I assume you only recently started at Hogwarts?" That might explain why she didn't have more memories of seeing him around. Then again...she wasn't the most observant person at times considering those years had gone by with her nose always in some book or other. Nevertheless it was a good question. Seemed like one of those mandatory getting to know you ones.
It was at this point that she couldn't help listening in a bit to their conversation. Didn't want to be here? she wondered as she looked at the girl in concern. Was everything okay? She didn't want to pry, but she wanted Ellie to know that if she ever needed anything she had a good listening ear right here. Hopefully, all that got across in one concern filled look.[/FONT][/COLOR] "True." So much truth was in that uberrrr long statement. So much. "Bet that's a lot of fun. Answering First Years' questions." That was...sarcastic. Ish.
Though, if she remembered correctly, she went to Cela for a lot. Or at least considered asking Cela a lot. In her first term.
