Actually, it was kind of a good thing, since he still had on the special boot from his accident this summer and he wasn't keen on anyone seeing it right now (aside from those who saw it on the train, of course).
Ronan made his way to a prime spot in the middle of the table and carefully maneuvered his booted foot self onto the bench and sat. And looked.
Hmm......Muggle Studies!Stewart was still here (though, it was probably okay to call her Professor Stewart now, since he didn't see Transfiguration!Stewart at the staff table). He smirked slightly, wondering how she'd reacted to finding out that he'd passed his Muggle Studies OWL with a big fat flying O.
Also new? The haircut a certain Head Boy was sporting. "Nice haircut!" Ronan complemented. "And congrats on getting Head Boy!" Now, where were the new female prefect and the Quidditch captain? Blinking away his thoughts when he felt a presence join him, Ace smiled at Ronan's greeting "Thank you Ronan! Not quite my choice this one.." he chuckled as he ran a hand through his sheared off locks "... but it was 'just proper' as my folks said with the new badge and things."
It was then that he spotted the special boot. Surprised, he nudged his head at Ronan's foot "Exciting summer didja?" SPOILER!!: Amara Quote:

Finding the Gryffindor table wasn't hard. It was at the far left with bright red and gold banners floating over it. Bright and sunny. She knew that's where she had to go. As she neared the table, she found several pieces of cutlery and no food. WHAT'S WITH HOGWARTS AND NO FOOD FOR ANYONE POLICY ? ? ? ?
Looking at the empty plates and goblets brought back the fresh memory of the train. She just stood near the table, deciding whether or not to sit down lest some towering girl comes and reprimands her for touching cutlery. He was watching the sorting of this one, and for a moment Ace did wonder if the Hat needed some kind of reboot. But after a while he saw the young one's robes change colors and is now a legit Lion cubbie "Welcome to Gryffindor! Come have a seat. We dont bite, not one of our own anyway." he smiled brightly at the young girl. SPOILER!!: Vi <3 Quote:

Stealing the seat, she offered a smile to her fellow housemates that were seated, especially Ronan and Amara. “Hello!” she greeted as she settled down.
Then she stole a glance at Tenacius, wondering what he must have been thinking. Was he too worried about this being the final year? She subtly took his hand into hers. “Galleon for your thoughts?” He smiled softly at his girlfriend when she joined him, and squeezed her hand in return "Yeah just....I just realized this is our last Start of Term Feast yknow? The last time we'll do any of these...." he gestured around. Something that he's been doing for seven years now, the duty things for four of those, it was part of his routine, part of who he was "Same time next year what would we be doing eh?" Pause "Sleeping in I hope!" he laughed. SPOILER!!: Stasya Quote:
Originally Posted by SilverTiger The train ride had been eventful, to say the least, although Stasya was trying not to let it all get to her.

She was going to be strong, although upon taking a glance up toward the staff table, her resolve weakened a little as she noticed a few absences. Namely, Healer Reed and Professor Stewart, the latter of which made her wonder how Emmeline was feeling. She figured her bestie knew why her guardian wasn’t there anymore, but it had to be weird. Kind of like how she felt like she’d feel if suddenly the DADA professor wasn’t there, except her attachment there wasn’t nearly as official.
Tearing her attention away from the professors, she’d turned to walk the rest of the way to her table, sparing a glance over toward the Hufflepuff table to look for a few faces before she’d gotten all the way to her housemates. The few who were there already, anyway, and she’d sent Ronan, Vi and Ace each a smile. “Hi everyone!”
It was the that she’d noticed the firstie standing there awkwardly, and she’d given her a smile too. “You can sit down. The food will show up once the headmistress gives her speech, but I’m pretty sure lots of us have snacks if you’re hungry before then,” she said, sliding into one of the many open seats nearby. Yes, she remembered her from the train, but that had all been cleared up so no harm done. And besides, she wondered when her bestie would get there. Or Liv, because she knew she was supposed to be back this term even if she hadn’t seen her since the summer. Everyone couldn’t have abandoned her. Ahh Stasya has turned up, and seems to be in a pretty happy mood-- which is a good thing. Sad Stas makes him sad. "Hey Stas! How'r you doin'? How'd your summer turn out?" SPOILER!!: Theo Quote:

WHOA
He didnt notice on the train but Vi and Ace where Prefect and Head Boy. "CONGRATS GUYS"
Nice badges and interesting haircut for the Head Boy. Not going to say anything on that. Also who was the first year or did Théo miss more than he thought when he got taken out halfway through the last term. "Oh right Sup everyone"
Théo did a sup nod and grinned at everyone there.
Now the torture of having to wait for the feast since he never cared about the sorting or speech. Theo was so chill Ace felt like his BP was lowering just by looking at him. Does he know he had that kind of therapeutic effect? Best not to say it until the very end otherwise he might start charging money for it "Thanks Theo! And how did your summer go?" SPOILER!!: Mattttttttt xD Quote:

Matt paraded into the Great Hall for his very last Start of Term Feast. HIS VERY LAST YEAR WAS ABOUT TO COMMENCE. YES!
He was READY! Ready to LEAVE school for good - thank Merlin! - and ready to start off his career as an Auror. YAS! BRING IT ON, NEWTS!
Or not just yet. Heck, he would have to do a lot of studying and truth be told, he wasn't particularly looking forward to that. Well, whatever. It was FEAST TIME, so he'd think about NEWTs later. "HELLOOOOOOO, GRYFFINDOR!!!" He exclaimed, arms open wide because that was only THE BEST HOUSE EVER! As always, his Star Wars counterpart never fails to amuse him. He laughed as Matt made his way towards their table "Was that supposed to be an audition because I think you're supposed to get up on the stage first." he snickered as he pointed at the Staff table full of busy, serious adults adulting. SPOILER!!: Zoryn Quote:

The Gryffindor walked into the hall with the same sort of majesty she'd imagine the queen to walk in with. Meaning, her chin was held up high towards the magnificent ceiling and her hand was cupped in a sort of royal wave. She beamed at ALL of her subjects even the annoying ones like Juniper and Skylar Diggory, before making her way towards the Gryffindor table.
Her first order of business was running up behind Théo and grabbing his shoulders, "BOOO!" in an attempt to scare the living daylight out of him. Did it work? And with that she slid onto the bench beside him, making sure to acknowledge the others with a boisterous, "YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Gryffindoooooor!" Making sure to echo Matt and give him a NOD in approval.
Also, please let it be known that she was taking mental notes here. Recruitment was a thing that she planned to have a leg up on. Of course to balance the universe, when theres a Matt, theres also a Zoryn, and the laughter just kep rolling off the Curly Top. He's met Zoryn earlier on the train so he just gave her a playful salute. She is Captain Zoryn after all. SPOILER!!: Sylvie Quote:

Fresh off her wonderful train ride and FULL of LOTS of VERY EXCITED FEELINGS about H O G W A R T S (but not classes because no one likes those) Sylvie Norcott made a mad dash from the carriages to the Great Hall only to stop, turn, and madly dash for the bathrooms.
Pee is a thing people. Even if she's not particularly fond of her mother right now, she does always say to go if you have to because infections can happen and that's like, not good at all.
Once again with vigor, Sylvie made a second mad dash for the Great Hall and beamde as she looked around. Good old great hall. However, she noticed with some sadness, no food yet. This fourth year (!!!) was absolutely starving and she sincerely hoped the little people would hurry up with their sorting because all of them needed food to live and stuff. Anyways, the noticeably taller blonde took the steps two at a time as she spotted her favourite people mucking around at her favourite table and butt-nudged Zoryn to move so she could fit herself nicely between her CAPTAIN FRIEND and her other, regular yet still BEST friend, Théo. "HI GUYS. I'm hungry." Ah good another Gryffindor has made their way toward the table. And indeed have verbalized what everyone else was really wishing. "Hi Sylivie. Do you want some jelly slugs to pass the time?" he waved a packet in the air. Since they were his faves theres always a packet stashed somewhere in his pockets for emergency snack cravings. Which is pretty much all the time. |
