So she was late.

So what?

There was nothing in the letter the Healer had sent her that said she NEEDED to be the first one in the great hall now that she was badged and all. And she actually had the badge on now that her kneazle was busy running around the castle looking for free food. Or mice.

Hopefully no one had and pet rats running lose.

Humming a secretive tune, she ambled into the great hall, eyes on the beautiful ceiling that she'd missed so much, and not on the Gryffie or Staff table. Too many people missing.

Her chocolate eyes roamed the ceiling until she was forced to bring them down on her house's table. A grin spreading as she saw Treyen surrounded by girls, firstie girls to be exact. Heh. "Hey, co-prefect." Wow. That felt weird to say. This badge thing was gonna take some getting used to. She slipped beside him, giving him a one armed hug before waving at the other huffies in the vicinity.

HAINEWPEOPLE!!

And now that introductions were done, she could pull out the chocoballs she'd found in her pocket and stare at them wistfully. Hmm.
