She said to both Treyen and the Ravenclaw girl, still wanting to see someone underage cross the line.

Her eyes flicked from the Ravenclaw girl to Kellen when he told a shortened version of the story. She knew what had really killed Cedric, and his retelling didn't convince her that Sabel should be a Triwizard Champion. "Just because he didn't die from the tournament doesn't mean he couldn't have." She mumbled eyes floating back to the cup.

The girl also knew that if Sabel was chosen he would have to participate, whether he had a change of heart or not. There was no point in her trying to convince him that the tournament was too dangerous.

Besides it wasn't guaranteed that Sabel would be one of the champions picked. Lots of students were entering their name into the cup, so his chances were slim.

Arya looked around them when Sabel gave introductions, but who was he giving them to? The Ravenclaw girl? No, he was speaking to Treyen, and it made her grin a little. "I already know Treyen." He was her soon to be skating buddy. Hehe.

Her eyes drifted over to Raiden, curious as to what had brought him to the cup. Was he here for the reasons Kellen was or Sabel's. Apparently Sabel's as she watched the boy walk the line and enter his name in the cup. That was two of her friends willing to risk their life for eternal glory and a shiny cup. The chances of one of them getting picked were getting higher.

Slipping from in between Sabel and Kellen, she moved over to Raiden to give him hugs. "Both of you should be careful." She wasn't to keen on losing any friends this term.

"Did you put your name in?" he asked her as he held on to the railing.

And the good mood just had to be ruined by that bully from the gumball machine. He turned slowly to the look at the boy. "Yes I'm allowed to enter the tournament. I will be 17 in January." he told the boy. Just because he was small and skinny didn't mean he didn't have what it took to be a Triwizard Tournament. "You can cross the age line if you're going to turn 17 during the tournament," and that was that. He didn't have to explain himself to that boy. He could be the Hogwarts champion just the same as anyone else.

He smiled as Grayson defended him. "Thanks Grayson. That means a lot to me," and it really did. People always wrote him off because he liked hugging his mother and comic books and he was shorter than the average 12 year old. But Diggy knew what he could and couldn't do and he go be the Triwizard champion. He gave her a slight bow and a wink before he disappeared into the crowd of milling students. He didn't want to get into anything with that gumball bully.

He flicked his eyes towards the Goblet when Diggy all but confirmed what Grayson has said earlier-- even when Salander wasnt quite 17 yet, he is allowed to submit his name to be a Hogwarts champion, even when he was just the new kid on the block, or the fact that he was a few years lower than his contemporaries. Whether or not he actually deserves to be called a Hogwarts Champion is up for the Cup to decide.

At least this will get him past the Age Line.

He waited for Diggy to leave before picking up his convo with Grayson. "Sorry I kept grilling you with questions without even introducing myself. My name is Salander." he said offering the Ravenclaw blond his hand. Shifting his eyes back onto the Goblet he sighed deeply before continuing. "So anyone can add their name to the cup so long as they turn 17 before the end of June next year right?" he said, giving a pensive smile "Guess I just made it through the skin of my teeth. I turn 17 on June 5th. "

Grayson twisted her head around so quickly that it seemed she'd fall off her perch on top of the railing, as the girl who had been discussing the Age Line stuff actually responded. Luckily for her, she'd been pretty well-balanced, and could twist her sneaker-clad foot around one of the posts to balance herself further. Anything to further explain her knowledge of the stories. "I think it might have itched when it was first growing, but do beards really itch when they're just sitting there?," she asked, another thoughtful look crossing her face as she contemplated it. But all that vanished into a mischievous smile as the story from Harry's time became the focus again. "Everyone who'd been affected got sent to the hospital wing, so I bet the beards didn't last very long." As long as it took thehealer at the time to reverse the spells, probably. "I definitely think it would have been hilarious." She was seriously waiting for someone to make that mistake. If just to see if the same spells were on the line this time around. "The really dangerous stuff seemed to happen to Harry, though," she pointed out, to their discussion of Cedric and his death. "I mean, he got the most dangerous dragon to face and all that."

Not really helping whatever they were discussing, so she turned back to the Slytherin boy. Who she was still trying to figure out if he wanted to submit his name or something. With all his questions about requirements and everything. He seemed older than her, definitely. Taller, too, but that was something she was used to. And her position on the railing made that detail a bit less pronounced, anyway. But she got distracted by Diggy coming over. "Hey. You're welcome. I mean, I gotta show support for the people I know, right?," she asked with a smile, as he thanked her for the earlier cheering. The grin faded a bit as he asked if she'd entered, though. "Can't," she said with a tiny sigh. She'd only be fifteen by June. It was the only disappointing thing about it all. And she sort of let herself brood a tiny bit as Diggy responded to the other Slytherin boy's comments, only coming back to the conversation once she heard her name again and turning back to Diggy with a smile. "You're welcome. Again. I know what it's like." The being tiny thing. Except at least Diggy had grown. She was pretty much convinced she'd be five feet tall forever.

Her green eyes followed her friend as he disappeared back into the crowd, but she turned back to the other boy as he spoke again. Obviously trying to continue their earlier conversation. "Sokay. I get into conversations with people without knowing their names lots of times," she said with a friendly smile. At least it seemed he was trying to fix that. "Grayson," she responded, even though he probably had heard her name from Diggy. "Has anyone accidentally called you salamander?," she added curiously. He had an interesting name, that was for sure, but then, she seemed to attract the people with interesting names. Considering her best friend and all, not to mention Raven and Torin. She followed his gaze as he looked at the Goblet again, but blinked as he continued speaking. "Well then, you should put your name in. Worst case, it won't get chosen, but at least you'll have tried," she said. And she'd verified he was older than her, not to mention now she could have more people she knew in the mix as possible champions. If he submitted his name.
