Default Entrance Hall


Whether you are brand new to Hogwarts or have been here a while, the Entrance Hall is always a breath-taking sight to see. Always memorable are the high ceilings, the colourful portraits on the walls, and the grand marble staircase. Various torches light the large room, keeping it nice and cozy at all times of the year. Arched windows atop the staircase, featuring the four Hogwarts Founders in all of their glory, bring in natural lighting as well.

This room is the gateway to the rest of the castle; however, those parts are temporarily off-limits until Headmaster Trent dismisses the student body from the Start-of-Term Feast for bed. Of course, you are more than welcome to slip out of the Great Hall to use the restroom in the corridor a few doors down or take a short break from the crowded room after the speech has been given. Not much is happening out here besides a team of house-elves taking everyone's luggage to the appropriate dormitories. Don't linger out here too long; you have a feast to enjoy.

A quick glance through the doors of the Great Hall had been enough for Nem, at least for the time being. They didn't enter the feast properly just yet, but stood out in the Entrance Hall, watching the house elves go about their work, thinking idly back to how they'd blasted a wall apart last time they were in here, dodging around inferi and wayward curses to escort Bernadette out of the castle. The relative calm of the castle now, even with all the activity students settling in for a feast, was oppressive. They couldn't say they'd expected anything less.

Walking their fingers lightly along their collar - the expensive shirt concealed beneath their uniform was comfortably warm, but brand new, and they were still getting used to how closely it fit around the neck - Nem took another look inside the Great Hall, fixing their eyes on the spot in the centre of the staff table.

It was weird being back.

A good weird, but strange nonetheless. The castle somehow seemed smaller, though Mamie Margaret supposed she was just taller. She wanted to go straight in to the feast, to greet all her fellow Hufflepuffs and friends, but she was nervous? The last two feasts had been...well, not great. One, with her head of house dead. The other, with the arrival of the horrible Neo-Alliance and their stupid prejudices.

Maybe this term would be better. Nobody dying, nobody getting locked in a dungeon. And she could resume her extra flying training, so when she tried out for the U17 team in the spring she could make it. Assuming they even had U17 next year, and assuming Muggleborns were allowed. She was making a lot of assumptions about the future, but that was what hope was, right?

She took a deep breath, ready to go in, then noticed...was that the Upstead kid? He'd come back? WHy was he just standing there? She was worried, not about what the sixth year would do, but was everyone else going to be nice to them? Maybe they were worrried too, and that's why they weren't going in? She should probably check on them. She was taller and older now, so she could help even older students, obviously.

"Are you okay?" asked, coming to stand next to Upstead. She looked up at them, curious as always. "Are you coming in?"

At first, Nem didn't realise the question was addressed to them. Not, at least, until Turov stopped right beside them, and a glance confirmed that they were indeed her intended audience. Suffice it to say, that was not something they expected to be asked, not today, not in this place, not any place, not ever, and yet there it was. Was Turov the ulterior motive sort of person? Nem knew very little about her and honestly could not have said for sure, but it was best to assume so.

"I'm fine," they said with a shrug, looking in again at the staff table for just a moment. "In a bit. Need to check on something." Nem scanned the Ravenclaw table quickly, but couldn't see him there yet, so turned their attention properly to Turov. "People might have problems with you if they see you talking to me," they pointed out bluntly. Not hurrying her along, per se. Just mentioning it. Just throwing that out there. Full disclaimer.

Fine? Fine meant not fine. Everyone knew that. She squinted up at Upstead, deciding how she could help. She shrugged when they said people wouldn't like her talking to them. She knew perfectly well that Ashley would be majorly upset if she caught her being nice to them, and probably Mavis, too. Well, and lots of other people, now they mentioned it. Her friends would still like her. Probably. This was fine.

"I don't need everybody to like me," she said. Not a lie, exactly. But...well....she did need some people to like her. Or at least talk to her. She hated being alone. The one good thing about the Room was that she had never been alone. Maybe that's how she could help. "Do...you want company?"

Did Bella want to be back at school? No. Was she here anyway, yes. A few inches taller both in height and hair length the 12 year old snakette stood on the threshold to the Great Hall, not wanting to go inside. Considering last years Neo-Alliance horrors Bella had truthfully cried many tears and had screamed quite a few angry words at her mother for not letting her switch schools.

The only positive as she stood here, looking into the great hall again was that Apollo was going to be here too, as well as her her snake friends. Bella saw at least one new face up at the staff table, but she wasn't in the mood right now to guess who that could be.

If that was true, Turov was leaps and bounds ahead of some of these other kids. Nem had even known several adults who were desperate to be liked by absolutely everyone, and as some of those had actually taught in this place, they had been fighting a losing battle from the start. All too often, Nem had seen kids' faces fall at the very idea that someone might not like them; they'd found it fascinating to witness back when they were a kid too, when it was a new discovery. By now, it had long since lost its entertainment value, but would never outlive its use.

"I don't mind, as long as you don't start asking about my summer," they said, glancing at the second year who was also hovering on the threshold. Nem moved away from the doors, and instead perched on a trunk that was waiting to be carried to whatever dormitory. "We'll be hustled inside sooner or later, I don't doubt."

She thought it was true, at the very least. That she didn't care what other people thought of her.

She was, however, curious about why she wasn't supposed to ask about his summer, though. Had it been terrible? Had they done something secret? She probably wouldn't have bothered to ask, but now that it was forbidden she needed to know. She should probably just go sit down, and to avoid the temptation to ask. Though...then Nemesis would probably think she did care what other people thought about her. Which was fine, because she didn't care what he thought about her. But did she care what people thought about her?

She settled for staying in the doorway as she watched the sixth year take a seat. Why was he getting comfortable? "Checking on something", he'd said...if Margaret had been a suspicious sort, she would have been worried. As it was, she was just confused. And feeling a little awkward. It wasn't like she and Nemesis had a whole lot (or anything) in common they could talk about.

"Er...what NEWTs are you taking, then?" she finally asked, not looking at them but inside the Great Hall now. Where was Professor Aguilar? She didn't see him there. And had they rearranged the seats at the staff table? It looked like someone else was in his seat, even.

It was funny, just looking at Turov, Nem could almost see the gears whirring as she plunged into what might have been overthinking. Maybe just simple confusion, but the two were not (always) mutually exclusive. What she had to get so in her head about, Nem couldn't have said.

Except, maybe they could have said, if they wanted. If they cared to. But therein lay the crux of most of their ~problems~.

Nem shrugged, crossing their legs so an ankle rested on a knee, and propped their head in their hand. "All of them, I suppose. Except Divination. Reminds me, actually, I'll need to speak to Ros-"

They stopped, let the pause hang in the air, looked away and stared solemnly towards the front doors of the castle.

"Trent. I'll need to speak to Trent."

The mention of Divination caused a twinge in her chest, smaller than what she'd felt on the train when Apollo mentioned the thing, but still enough to make her uncomfortably sad. She tried to focus on Nemesis's answer to the question. Margaret didn't know how many NEWTs was normal. She knew she wanted to take the bare minimum. The only class that she really needed was flying, and maybe charms. She wanted to just take what she could hopefully pass, and then she could go and play Quidditch and never have to write an essay ever again in her whole entire life.

She wondered if the real Trent liked to give essays as often as Rosier had.

She wondered a lot of things about the real Trent.

"Is he nice? Headmaster Trent?"

Nemesis was a sixth year. He knew the real Trent. She thought he must be nice, with a daughter like Mavis and a son like Kale. He was clearly the kind of person who appreciated vegetables. And people who appreciated vegetables were usually good people.

Another shrug. Nem kept their eyes on the doors.

"He's fair. Treats everyone pretty much the same, which I guess is kind of base-level expectation for a lot of people, where the headmaster is concerned." Also wicked boring. But true enough about the Headsman; he hadn't blocked Nem's return to school, after all. He had also once been fun - Nem's favourite - to try and elicit some kind of reaction from during classes, but that was back when that kind of thing provided some level of entertainment. The pre-Rosier days. Not that Nem thought that was likely to stop them from doing the same thing now, at least until they found something else to occupy their time, and not inconsiderable talents.

Funny. In some ways, perhaps Nem would have been happier now if Rosier had never come along. Or maybe 'happy' was too strong a word, but they almost certainly wouldn't have to struggle quite so much against that interminable void that constantly dogged their footsteps. It had all been so much, so fast, a welcome thrill at the time, and so naturally Nem had embraced every moment with no thought as to how it would leave them more desolate than ever further down the line, with even fewer things left to outdo what they'd seen and done. Strange to think that, only a couple of years ago, Nem could satisfy themselves with a little innocent trolling during a lesson on kelpies. That kid was long dead now.

And good riddance. Ignorance was not bliss. Rosier had messed up plenty of things, but his appearance had nudged Nemesis down a path that they were certain they'd have found perfectly fine on their own, sooner or later. Ultimately, they were no worse off for it.

Leaps and bounds, leaps and bounds.

Realising they were lapsing into a silence of their own, Nem drew back from that avenue of thought and went on. "He is fair, but you can tell when he doesn't like you." The implication was clear. They looked at Turov again, half-smiled in a way they knew was unconvincing. "But I wouldn't worry about that. I think he'll like you just fine."

Fair. Fair was just about as good as nice, Margaret thought. Especially in comparison to Rosier who judged everyone for stupid reasons and made people go without wands and sleep on the floor whilst others got to just live their merry little lives. Base-level expectation for headmaster, sure, but one that had not been met previously. Margaret smiled to herself at this assessment of their new? old? headmaster. "Fair is good."

And based purely on these Nemesis and Margaret's relative knowledge and happiness, ignorance was in fact bliss.

Still a little bothered by silence, something she hadn't outgrown like her clothes, she fidgeted until the Slytherin spoke again. "I'm not worried about him liking me," she reminded them. She was sticking to this not needing people to like her thing. Maybe if she believed it enough, it would be true. Upstead's smile, though, was convincing. Trent was kind and fair, and definitely an improvement on Rosier. And Upstead seemed happy he was back. She wasn't sure she'd ever seen them smile before...it was reassuring, somehow.

"I'm going to go sit down, I hope you find...whatever." Trent, she thought, but she wasn't absolutely sure. Maybe they were waiting for their trunk, to get something? Maybe they were trying to avoid the feast altogether, in which case her keeping them company was probably not helping. She checked that her uniform was straight, then gave him a polite little nod and headed to the Hufflepuff table.

'Fair is good.' The greatest good. They could have said it, they wanted to say it, but they opted not to. Just as they opted not to point out that true fairness was not only boring, but totally unrealistic. A concept that got people crying about 'the unfairness of it all' instead of doing something about the situation, but not one that was without its uses.

"I'm sure you aren't, but it's a much easier time in this place when the guy in charge doesn't hate your guts." As Turov well knew, or would soon see, given the last year and the point of comparison she would get. Not that Nem thought Trent so deeply hated them to start with, but they did not believe for a second that he had grown any softer towards them, nor that his feelings remained unchanged, what with everything. At any rate, it didn't hurt to lay it on thick from time to time. "You'll have a better year, believe me. Not that it would take much to improve on last term."

Turov left, and Nem let her get on with it. Folding up their legs to sit cross-legged on top of the trunk, they retreated again into an inscrutable silence, picking up an old thread of thought that drew them back to the Headsman, to Lucien Rosier, and to their very own self.

"Apo-" was all Bella managed to exclaim before she was engulfed in a hug by her bestie in the whole wide world which she wholeheartedly returned. Seeing him put a smile to her face. Just minutes ago she'd been pretty mellow and not very eager to enter the feast at all. Apollo brightened her mood considerably. Waving away his apology Bella said."You don't need to apologize. I sat with some snake girls in the front of the train and we played wizard chess and tried lipsticks out." As for the summer, she murmured back. "It's not your fault our mums had different summer plans that didn't mesh...You're here now, that's all that matters." It had been irritating to just exchange letters with Apollo over the summer, but it was all they could do.

Grinning she said "I've got so much to tell you too..maybe after dinner tomorrow we can talk in the library and research ways to easier communicate?" Like about summer things and other things her bestie only knew about. Nodding she said longingly as she peered over his shoulder into the great hall too. "I know we have to go in, I wish I could sit with you too at the feast... stupid rules." Remembering the flasks in her robes she pulled them out and held them out to Apollo eagerly. "Want to try out some WWW products out with me? If we drink them before going in we'd show everyone how awesome besties we are." He'd grow a wonderful french moustache, and she'd look like a very hairy dame. It'd be FUN! Looking down at her feet and then up Bella shrugged "Maybe? I've grown a few inches, but you must have done that too?"

I sat with some snake girls in the front of the train and we played wizard chess and tried lipsticks out." As for the summer, she murmured back. "It's not your fault our mums had different summer plans that didn't mesh...You're here now, that's all that matters." It had been irritating to just exchange letters with Apollo over the summer, but it was all they could do.

Wait. She did WHAT?!?!? Apollo blinked at her when she mentioned the second part. "Lipstick.... I ... should you..." He stammered, because he had no words really. "Yea, not to mention I got grounded the last couple weeks of summer." Long story. He'd tell her about it later, of course. He peered into the hall in time to see - or rather hear - a certain redhead first year getting sorted into Slytherin. Like Bella.

"Hey, uh ... before we go for that ... i mean, yes, i want to but before I forget, think you can give this note to Serena? She was just sorted into Slytherin." She wouldn't be jealous that he was giving another female a note, would she? But it wasn't terribly confidential, except maybe for teacher's prying eyes, so if she read it, he wouldn't mind. He shook his head though, "I think maybe only an inch?" He shrugged. He knew he'd get his growth spurt soon but it sucked being one of the smallest and not much he could do about it.

Giggling at Apollo's apparent appalled grimace Bella reassured him. "Relax, it was just for fun. I'm not going to start wearing lipstick to classes everyday." If she did that, word would get back to her mother somehow she just knew and that road she didn't want to travel. Apollo's next revelation was met with big eyes of surprise from Bella. "Grounded for 2 weeks ? Sheesh, you'll definitely have to tell me more tomorrow." Looking over Apollo's shoulder she saw that the sorting was almost over so they couldn't stay out here much longer.

Bella stared at the note in Apollo's hand for several seconds that was for a recently sorted first year girl, named Serena. He wanted her to give Serena his note. Initial reaction was jealousy and then soon after curiosity mixed with a smidge of guilt. Accepting the note from him, she pocketed it in her left robe pocket for safe keeping. "Sure, I can give your note to Serena." Bella was going to ask him 20 questions tomorrow about Serena so she'd get all the gossip... Smiling she reached out to pet Apollo on the arm comfortingly. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll grow a head taller than me in no time." And with that it was time to leave for the snake table. "I'll see you after dinner tomorrow in the library. Don't forget.. Nighty night Apollo!" Bella said as she swung around on the spot, her black hair flapping as she did so, and soon after she had disappeared into the feast.
