| | |  Gryffindor Table
 For those who belong in Gryffindor House, on the left side of the Great Hall is where your table awaits. Red banners containing an embroidered golden lion float above the polished table in honour of the brave Godric Gryffindor. Already placed on the tables are silver plates with accompanying cutlery and goblets. All that is missing right now are the mountains of food and pitchers containing your favourite beverages.
Though your stomach might be growling as you take a seat on one of the long benches next to the table, it is important to not get hangry -- gnawing your arm away or jabbing your fork repeatedly on the surface of the table will do no good whatsoever. Give everyone some time to get settled in and wait for Headmaster Winterbottom to deliver his speech. Keep yourself preoccupied by catching up with your fellow housemates or those who are visiting from the other tables until it is time to sink your teeth into the hearty and delicious meal prepared by the house-elves.

Viano plopped himself down at the Gryffindor table, slightly dreading the year ahead of him. Major exams did that, raising his anxiety. His fifth year… it had been a slight challenge to manage it but now… two years later, Vi was doing much better. Amidst his concerns for the exams, he still felt that he could manage all that he needed to. His thoughts randomly turned to Vesper. He just might bug his sister to help him with studies. Of course, there was Vasco and Vera too… yep, he had options. The reminder made him happy… happier. It was enough to make him grin slightly as he turned his attention to the Sorting.
Eloy was here, everyone!
Still bouncy with excitement from the Sorting, the extrovert made his way to the Table cheering for him. Not the actual Table, duh; the people at it! “Thank you, thank you!” Pausing at one end, he bent from the waist up in a little bow. “Hey, guys! What’s up? Eloy here!”
El took up a free spot, looking keenly at the cutlery. How long until the food got there? His stomach was making some embarrassing noises. |

The Great Hall glittered like it always did at the start of term -and Marina walked in like she belonged to it.
Which she did.
Obviously.
Her chin was tipped just slightly higher than necessary, steps light and deliberate as she made her way toward the Gryffindor table, eyes flicking over familiar faces, new ones, the whole spectacle of it all. Third year. That meant something. It had to mean something. You didn’t just survive two years of Hogwarts and come back the same.
Still... there was a strange sort of tightness sitting just under her ribs, like something unfinished had followed her all the way back from summer and decided to unpack without asking.
She slid onto the bench, smoothing her robes in a quick, practiced motion before reaching for a goblet she didn’t actually want yet. Her eyes flicked briefly toward the staff table before snapping back like it hadn’t mattered at all. “Well,” she said, a little too brightly, turning toward the nearest person like she hadn’t just been staring into absolutely nothing, “if third year doesn’t come with dramatic personal growth and at least one life-altering event, I’m going to be very disappointed.”
Her smile came easy. Too easy.
“Hi Eloy” she added, as someone introduced himself, “excited for Hogwarts? you certainly look it”

| Bria is at the table (sparing my brain & posting her later) fist bumps for any & all! astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf
Did someone call for a life-altering event!?
"Yoooo — Griffin’s Door — let’s goooo!"
CJ hit the ground from the dais like he'd just been subbed into a match... meaning that his energy was already dialed up, grin wide, and absolutely riding the high. He made a beeline for the table, weaving between people and sitting knees with zero hesitation and a whole lot of confidence that may or may not have been earned.
"—whad up, whad up—" he added on the way in, tossing out a couple of easy fist bumps to anyone within range (that includes you two, bros ― Doom ＆ Gloom and Fellow Bouncy Ball) like they were already teammates. "Good crowd, good crowd — happy to be here —"
And then—
Mid-stride.
He stutter-stepped.
Not subtle. Not graceful. A full, visible hitch like someone had yanked an invisible string.
Because ooooooooooooh.
"—no WAY," he said under his breath, blinking once as recognition hit like a solid bludger to the head...or maybe the chest...or maybe a double whammy. His head tilted slightly, eyes narrowing just a fraction as he pointed — trying for subtle, missing by a mile. "Coin Calculator."
Also known as Seventeen-Twenty-Nine when he referred to her in his thoughts and letters back home to teammates and friends. Scary Girl Daunting Damsel to mom and dad ― she was able to overlook a couple things since he used one of her smart people words to describe his blonde peer.
"Yooooo!" he called, already moving again, closing the distance with that loose, easy stride. "I don’t know if I’m in luck or if I should be running the other direction!” He slid into the seat across from her in one quick motion, a little too fast, knee bumping the underside of the table before he settled. He leaned forward just slightly, bracing an elbow on the table, still riding that amused disbelief. "Weeeeeeeell, fancy meeting you here. Come here often?" he grinned, gesturing vaguely around at the Gryffindor table. "Would just be my luck that I get sorted and immediately found the one person who can expose me for not understanding the currency."

Marina had just lifted her goblet - purely for something to do, when the noise hit the table like a rogue bludger with opinions.
Her eyes flicked up.
That energy.
That voice.
…oh no.
The recognition landed a second before the nickname did, and her expression did something very specific - somewhere between disbelief and you’ve got to be kidding me. The goblet paused midair.
“Coin - ” she repeated, flatly, lowering it back to the table with slow, deliberate care. “Calculator.” Of course the universe had the sense of humor to do exactly this to her. Why stop at summer? When her luck could carry to the new term as well.
She refused to lose to it though, not the time or place. So instead, she leaned back slightly, folding her arms as she looked him over properly this time, one brow arching. “You,” she decided, giving him a look that tried very hard to be unimpressed and only half succeeded, “are… a lot to run into at the start of term.” There was no real bite to it. Not quite.
But then he went on to be as charming as she remembered him to be, because running?
From her?
Marina blinked once, thrown just enough for it to show before she quickly recovered, straightening a little in her seat.
“I - you don’t need to -” she tried again, then stopped, lips pressing together briefly as she recalibrated. Because she knew exactly why he was saying such a thing - the awful mood she had carried over the summer had carried into their first meeting as well. BUT - things were different now. They were in hogwarts. Things were better. They simply had to be.
“That was a one-time situation,” she settled on, a touch too quick, brushing a strand of hair back behind her ear in a way that was almost pointedly casual. “I was having a - a very specific mood. Which is not my usual setting, just so we’re clear.”
Her chin lifted a fraction, composure stitched back together with visible effort.
“So no,” she added, a little more evenly now, “you don’t need to run.” She glanced at where he’d nearly taken out the table with his knee, then back to his face. “…also, this is the Gryffindor table,” she continued, gesturing around them like that should answer everything. “So yes. I do, in fact, ‘come here often.’”
HONESTLY. Why, universe, why?
