 Feel Free to Say Hi!
Kye had finished at the Feast, wishing she felt this good after every meal. Yea sure someone threw up almost right in front of her, but you know what? She had made it to Hogwarts, she was a Slytherin, and she was just so happy to be here.
She followed others at her table until she arrived at the Slytherin Common Room. Her parents always told her stories about some students they knew who were stuck in the halls at night because they had forgotten a password or were to tired to think of the answer to the door's riddle in Ravenclaw's case.
Upon entering the room, Kye noticed a glint of green near the fire. Wonderingly, she focused in that direction and heard the small meow of her kitten Edie, who had been apparently waiting for her down here. Kye's heart melted. Welcoming the kitten into her arms, Kye noticed that there was dessert spread around the room for them all. Seriously?? Did they just know? Was it a trick of some sort for the first years? She scanned the room to see if anyone else was grabbing ice cream or s'mores from this strangely campy feeling place.
Deciding whether she wanted one s'more or two, Kye noticed a man from the staff table sitting in a chair. It wasn't too hard to realize who he was... after watching Vivi speak with him. Oops!
Kye, now carrying a meowing Edie, headed towards the Head of Slytherin. She remembered Ariadne saying her mother was a teacher here before as well. Kye took a seat and gave Mr. McLeod a nod. "Hello, I'm Kye Atwater, pleasure to meet you, Sir," she greeted. Well she might as well get to know the guy right? He could be detrimental to her advancement in something later on, and it never hurt to have a decent first impression...
Kye scanned the room once more before deciding to join in the festivities. She loved the snakes on the ice cream. She ate those first. She tried to eat calmly, as much as she wanted to slurp down that ice cream, because Edie was trying to lay comfortably on her lap and she rather enjoyed the company of her cat. |
