Oh Morgana...were they being for real? Usually she only listened to her parents when she was eavesdropping. But if the boats tipped, the poncho she'd been so eager and grateful to accept wouldn't do much good. Her outfit that she'd spent the last several days before start of term meticulously tailoring would be soaked, and she'd have to change into her back-up uniform that she had only carefully altered.

Shrugging those thoughts away, Alba continued moving towards the boats only to find herself the first student there...the first person there at all, actually. Unperturbed and unsurprised, Alba chose the boat furthest up the shore. Surely someone would sit with her and she could make a friend to get through this with.

SPOILER!!: notebook

It's okay. My dad said the boats are safe.

Avalon breathed a sigh of relief as the boats came into view. She was not expecting to have to hike down that steep path, let alone in the rain. If she had known the first years were going to go off-roading, she would have worn more suitable clothing. Her skirt and ballet flats didn't do much for her against the muddy terrain. Shaking out her poncho, she approached a boat with two other first years already seated. Might as well start to make some friends before the school year officially begins. "Beautiful weather we're having. Welcome to Hogwarts, right?" Avalon quipped sarcastically, rolling her eyes as she clambered into the boat. "I don't think I met either of you on the train. I'm Avalon," she said, giving the girl and the boy a quick wave. She suppressed a shiver. It was cold out here. She couldn't wait to enter the warmth of the Great Hall...she could just barely make out the twinkling lights from the castle in the distance.
