'Oh, you couldn't have been a Squib even if you wished for it, being part of such a family, Though I can't see why anyone would wish to be a Squib.' Ariadne chuckled.

'Sienna...such a beautiful name! And the kitten is just as pretty as the name.' the girl replied, in awe. She loved animals, and especially cats. She felt she could relate to them, as a girl who loved independence. 'I've also got a cat, but mine's a male, I named him Pluto.' she commented.

'Do you think it'll take long till we can go to our common room? I feel very tired all of a sudden, and it's been such a long day.' Ari said, trying to suppress a yawn.

"I am interesting? Really. Well, to tell you honestly I am a boring person. Must be the reason why I don't have much friends." he said as he looked around him to see Gryffindor students introduce themselves to the others and vice-versa.

Mordred then looked at Ari. "Me? Good-looking?....R-really?" Mordred asked a bit confused. He was never told he was good looking. Not even his parents...
"Hm. Maybe we should thank my parents for that." he said taking it as a compliment. He never studied his face before, nor he even bothered to look at himself in the mirror.

'I'm still going to be competitive about the Cup, I want it for Gryffindor, as much as I love my friends from other Houses.' the girl replied, dead-serious. She would take it as a personal failure if Gryffindor didn't win. 'The Sorting Hat knows best, but it did hesitate for a while.' Ari confessed.

'Oh, come on, you don't have enough friends? I think you're very popular.' Ariadne observed. 'And you're far from boring. You're not like everyone else, and that clearly caught my attention.' she added.

Why were boys so oblivious sometimes? 'Yes, you are good looking, but I'm saying this for the final time so you'd better let it sink in. However, I'm sure you'll hear it again from someone else pretty soon. Who do you resemble most, your mum or your dad?' the girl asked.

In fact, if he hadn't known any better, he would've thought of Ari as Karen's long lost twin.

He nodded, brown hair flopping. "I sort of had to learn, or I'd have been living off cheese and crackers for the rest of my life." He grimaced; that would've been awful. He chuckled - he completely understood. "Tell me about it. I had to watch hours of cooking shows..." He'd have much rather been watching The Simpsons. Marge was good at cooking, right? "Well, let me know, yeah?" he said, rather excited about the prospect of teaching someone his skillage. (He deftly ignored her female-ness. He could fret over that later.)

"My sister. My brothers are away a lot of the time, travelling. Her name's Karen - she's nine." He smiled; he'd miss her, and his parents.
Oh dear... Her silence screamed against his ears. He could feel his nervous heart-rate quickening again. He squashed it desperately, quickly groping for an apology. He didn't know what he'd done...What'd he said? AHH. GIRLS WERE SO CONFUSING. "I'm sorry." he said hastily, his words tripping over each other in a wild frenzy. He'd never been too good at awkward social situations.

The Gryffindor, still flailing anxiously, tipped his head. "Definitely." He yawned, as if in response. He hoped he could return to the dorms soon for some much needed sleep. "I hope so." he said with a small smile.

Ariadne was so happy the boy finally felt a little more comfortable in her presence and enyoyed their shared laugh. The girl started to think that maybe she was good at making friends after all, although she wasn't what you'd call sociable. But she was likeable.

'As much as I like cheese, I must admit it's not an option to have it as a life-long meal. ' she continued laughing. 'Cooking shows? So you grew up in the Muggle world?' Ari asked. 'Wait- before you say anything, please don't take it as an offense. I was just curious, there's nothing wrong with living in the Muggle world, like there's nothing wrong with being a Muggle. I've got many Muggle friends, in fact.' the girl felt the need to clarify that.

'Your sister'll be coming to Hogwarts in two years time, I guess it's going to be nice having her around. Probably she'll be in Gryffindor too. Have your brothers already graduated?' Ari asked. Only after a while did she realise that her hesitation must've seemed really awkward to Matt. And now he was apologizing? 'There's nothing you should be sorry for. It's just...my family situation is a bit...problematic. I'll explain it to you one day, but the start of tearm feast is hardly the place for such a discussion.' Ariadne tried to rectify the situation.

Ohhhhh how sweet was that?Ari seemed to be really excited about being a Gryffindor now.it was a great hose after all but still sad that she didnt make it into Gryffindor.Seperation,oh nooes."Congratulations on making it into the brave's house",she winked,"i am sure you will like it."if someone was mean to Ari,Fee would have to treat them badly.Awww,the brunette was complementing her?Hehe."You look stunning too dear",the 13 year old winked.

Hmmm her rest of the summer?"Oh well i went to New York with my boyfriend and we had a blaaaast.I just came back one da before the train left",she told her friend.New York had been amazing and Fee would go there anyday again."What about you? Where is your cat btw?"

Ariadne already considered Fee the older sister she never had. Okay, maybe that's too dramatic, but anyway, Fee was definitely more than just an ordinary friend. 'Hey! How was the train ride? I looked for you for a while, but it got so crowded, so I gave up. But I'm happy to see you now.' she smiled widely.

'Thank you, I hope I can live up to the expectations people have for Gryffindors.' Those expectations were a lot higher than what people expected of, say, Hufflepuffs. 'I'm a bit sad we're not in the same House, but we'll see each other often, right? Promise?' she asked, hopefully. 'Thank you, I bought some glitter too.' Ari confessed that she was following the blonde's steps.

'To New York? How come? What did you do there?' Ari asked, surprised. 'I just spent my rest of the holiday at home, but it was pleasant.' she replied. 'Oh, Pluto? He's in my dormitory, I don't think he would've appreciated all the noise in here.' the girl explained.
