Showing up late to the feast was awfully embarrassing. Sure, Issy was quite content with a good, fashionably late entrance, but this was after-the-sorting late the sort that wasn't in any way fashionable and certainly not the kind she wanted to call attention to. Pushing open the big, heavy doors, she slowly crept into the Great Hall, eyes straight ahead, avoiding contact with anyone else's. Cheeks a patchy pink, she held her chin high and, with a purposeful stride, made her way over to the Ravenclaw table, which she found to be horribly crowded, just as she had expected it to be. This meant she would not only have to look foolish as she sought out her friends, but she'd also feel silly doing it and everyone would see.

It hadn't been her fault she was late. After the trip to school, she'd found herself feeling rather ill and when everyone else made their way for the Great Hall, she cut away from the pack and found her way into the bathroom where she spent a great deal of time, shaking and begging Merlin that she wouldn't get ill in there. Perhaps it was just her but, she'd rather not spend her time getting sick in the bathroom on her first night back.

When she'd finally felt strong enough and stable enough to return to the Great Hall, she found that everyone was already dining and she'd happened to miss the sorting. Drat.

Now she was searching for her friends, trying to look as casual as she could.

Finally, she saw a sliver of dark hair and dived at the table. In the blur of her flying to the only available seat she could find, she noticed Gavin standing beside her, a familiar boy seated on one side of her (was he one that was talking about the frog legs?) and Willow was across the table, seated beside yet another cute boy.

What was with the cute boy infiltration.

Wiggling in her seat slightly, Issy blinked over at him, tipping her head curiously, before looking at Willow.

"Hey," she greeted, breathlessly, swallowing and then eying everyone eating around her. OH FOOD! "I'm a bit late."
