After all he had no idea if they were going to be in the same house or not. "Do they do the sorting as soon as you get there?" Adam asked. As a transfer student he wasn't really sure if he got up and was sorted with the first years. That would be slightly embarrassing if that was the case, but Adam supposed there wasn't really anything he could do about it.
Adam gave a little chuckle as Ellie scrunched up her nose. "He's not an actual spider, he was just bite by a special one so he can climb up walls, and he created this stuff that's sticky like a spider web that he uses so that he can swing from building to building." Adam always liked Spider Man, probably because he was the shy under dog that you always wanted to win.
Adam nodded as Ellie described the House Elf situation. "So, you can talk to them?" Adam asked...he wondered if they would be friendly or not.
She nodded. Very true. People did tend to go to a lot of the same classes.
As for the sorting, she nodded again.
"Yeah, they do it alphabetically. Then once everyone's at their tables, Tate makes a speech, and then the food appears." Ellie was kind of hoping the feast itself would go by pretty quickly, but there seemed to be a lot of new people on the train. She just didn't want to have to see whoever had taken Little Professor's place sitting in his seat for long.
...No, that still sounded gross. Not the climbing walls bit, that was pretty cool, though Merlin knows why anyone would want to climb a wall. But the creating a sticky web thing? Gross. And again, why would anyone want to swing on buildings?
"You can. And they'll talk back." She couldn't say if they'd always be pleasant, though. There was that one that freaked whenever you touched the flatware.
"They're usually keen to serve you." House Elves were awesome like that.
