It was all just an impossible dream that he was going to wake up any minute and he would be starting Hogwarts for the very first time.
As his stomach grumbled he wondered when the Headmaster would make his speech. But he also realized it wasn't just a hunger for food, but a hunger for more. A hunger for life. And if he wasn't seventeen, he was almost positive he would not have felt this same hunger. He turned to look at Luther and realized even he wasn't the young child from the start of the term. Everyone was growing up, whether they liked it or not. "Did you have a good first year?" He asked. "don't worry if it seemed long, the older you get, the shorter the years seem to be." And yes he might have been about to go all emo.
Although the question was a simple one, the answer was not quite so. After a moment to formulate his answer, Luther turned to
Apollo and said with a smile on his face, "
Hello there, Apollo. It was really good. I hope the next year will be even better than this one. How was your first year compared to your..." pausing for only a moment he continued "
sixth year?" hoping he got his grade right.
SPOILER!!: Kinsay :)

So. So instead of ducking her head and avoiding conversation, she offered small smiles to both younger boys sat at the table. "Hi!" They were looking awfully sentimental. Did they know?
Catching the tail end of their conversation, Kins furrowed her brows thoughtfully. "Every year felt long to me." And that? That was the truth.
Luther beamed at
Kinsay who was so helpful in his early weeks at the castle. '
She didn't have to do that.' Luther thought gratefully. "
Hi Kinsay!" he greeted her and continued "
I don't mind long years, to be honest. The castle is pretty fun to explore, you know."
SPOILER!!: Summer, what a great name

Summer looked around to see if she could see any of her fellow third year, but even though she knew they were there she was struggling to see them. So that probably meant that they were at the other end of the table right, and truthfully she was too lazy to go and check. So she just sat there and waited to see if anyone would talk to her.
Luther noticed the third-almost-fourth-year
Summer sitting and looking around. Even though they have not spoken to each other much during the year, he thought '
It's never too late to befriend someone new.' and said "
Hey there, Summer. How was your year? Did you think it was a bit long, too?"
