Just tryna protect everybody.
Gryffs gotta stick together. Throw cookies? Cauldron cakes? THERE WAS A CAULDRON MADE OUT OF CAKE? THAT Penelope was definitely going to try soon. "As long as they don't get thrown on the floor they'll still be edible." 'Course, Penelope was perfectly willing to eat them even if they did fall on the floor. She was THAT hungry. And she'd had worse. This floor couldn't be that bad.
She just wanted FOOD, man. Quote:

At least he wasn't alone on this one. "I'm hungry also. I wonder what's taking these waiters so long to get our food out. Do you think there's a delay in the kitchens?" He asked while he leaned forward into the table to try and find a place of where people might be going in and out, ready to plate the hungry students. ...Kid was awfully loud, wasn't he? How could he be so loud and energetic if he was really that hungry? Hmm.
She shrugged. "Dunno. Guess there could be. There ARE lots of people here to cook for." But if the castle was like this every year, surely the elves - which she assumed were the ones doing the cooking like they did at her grandparents' house - should be used to it by now. Quote:

'cool' sounding as the first year had put it. So unlike anything she had heard growing up. Maybe that was why she wasn't too partial to nicknames and preferred to call Jonathan by his name instead of something else like Lime. "Oh, um, thank you," she said with a small bow of the head. "It...can translate to Walnut in English...unless you are translating the individual kanji that are used to write my name." Blah blah blah...this girl probably wasn't interested in a mild linguistics lesson.
Especially when one considered how she was eyeballing the dancing cookies.
"Help yourself. Although, I think the Headmaster will be giving his speech soon." She hoped at least. She wanted her pumpkin juice! It translated...to Walnut? That was about all she understood of Kurumi's reply. Penelope had no idea what a "kanji" was - some kind of food? candy? - but that her name meant Walnut she DID understand. "That's even cooler!" She now wondered what her name translated to. Did it mean any kind of food too? That would be COOL.
And it seemed Kurumi had noticed her eyeing that delicious-looking dancing cookie. And she COULD eat it? YES. Penelope didn't have to be told twice. One moment the cookie was dancing, the next it was in her mouth. Muuuch better.
Speech? Penelope...vaguely remembered someone mentioning something about that. And then food appearing after? Yes please. Text Cut: Headmaster, Toddles, and Kurumi <33 Quote:

Getting ready to jump on top of the table again, and maybe get a drink of water since Toddles was very thirsty, when he heard the big man.
O___O "Whoopsies! Toddles needs to hide!" The house elf scurried further into the middle of the darkness under the table and wrapped his arms over the concealed orb. His toy that was going to be stolen.
Despite his slight fear, Toddles couldn't help but giggle...he liked hiding games almost as much as catching ones. Quote:

"Yeah..." she nodded, sort of just lost in her own thoughts.
Perfect Prefect? That certainly had Kurumi's cheeks a bright pink color. She opened her mouth to tell him that Kurumi would be just fine, but he was Head Boy. He could technically call her Perfect Prefect if he wanted to.
Ignore that she was far from perfect.
"Well...that is one way to show how spirit," she laughed. Weird and potentially very messy, but....as Tag had taught her earlier... whatever floats your boat!
Nodding, Kurumi flicked her wand again to charm another Gryffindor crest cookie towards Paulie, summersaulting and twirling as it made its way towards his face. "Certainly did."
SQUEEEEEEEEEE!
TODDLES WAS BACK!!!
Could she hug him again? Please? PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE?!
"TODDLES!!" Kurumi chirped, deciding to charm a cookie in his direction. House elves liked cookies, right?! Besides, maybe the cookie would earn her a hug!
Oh? What was this? He had a pillowcase with him now? Wasn't that just the CUTEST thing ever? "Toddles, what all do you have in there?" Or was he going to take a nap on the Gryffindor table?
Oh! The Headmaster was here too! Did he want another cookie?
Nope. At least not judging from his question. Looking around, Kurumi tried to find Toddles again so she could hug him but soon brought her attention back to the Headmaster. "Toddles," Kurumi said, placing a little emphasis on the elf's name. Honestly, Tables? Baby thing? Shouldn't the Headmaster, as a father, be a little more caring when it came to names? Toddles might start to cry! "Was here earlier, Headmaster, throwing something around. And...I swear I just saw him again now... with a pillowcase..."
Where did the little guy go?
Oh wait! "There he is!" Kurumi chirped, pointing her finger at the something that had moved under the table. Honestly, if the elf hadn't said anything she probably wouldn't have noticed.
Ducking down a bit, Kurumi peered into the darkness that was under the table and wished that the candlelight in the Great Hall were a little brighter. Where was the cutie?! Quote:

Him. Toddles was a him.
Hmph.
Tate crouched beside Hollingberry. "Come out and play, Toddles. Will you show me your new toy?" Penelope was then, fortunately, distracted from her hunger by one of the old people from that front table coming down to the Gryffindor one. And he was looking for a baby elf? That one that had had some sort of round ball thing? Hadn't it gone somewhere...
Oh look, it was back. And under the table. And Kurumi was trying to help get the elf out from there. Penelope might've helped get the elf out - or at least done something other than watch curiously - but the elf was already starting to come out from under the table. So Penelope simply continued watching.
