Looking at his size however, he nods. Thinking their pretty close to the same build, he asks "Don't you find it hard to keep steady, or is that not really a problem?"

Aaron was now the second person to ask him that question, Clifford didn't mind really. "Well, the only plan I've really got is to play Quidditch," he said simply. "I'm hoping after I leave this place, a proper team will want me."




It was totally weird getting this reaction from people.. he wasn't used to having quite so much attention. Clifford managed to grin nevertheless, "Yeah, it's pretty neat.. means I get to boss people around and stuff." Bwaha.

"Thanks." Lettie said as Ott took the pitcher from her, "It has a squid in it? Ew. I don't think I'll be swimming in there any time soon." Slippery things were gross, and slippery, slimy things with big eyes and tentacle things were even grosser. "First years have to arrive by boat? Hmm, hope none of them tip over and drown, that wouldn't be good." Despite saying it would be bad, the girl smirked a tiny bit. "What do you mean? My being uncoordinated has been around for ages. I can't even stay on a broom correctly, that's why I prefer sailing. It's a lot more fun, and if I fall, then I don't hit the ground from a hundred feet up, I hit the water." It would have been nice to go to the Black Sea right now...the weather was supposed to be wonderful. Her poor father would have to go by himself now, until Lettie was on holiday.


Seeing another student nearby who seemed to be on the verge of a boredom breakdown, Leticia smiled over at them and introduced herself. "Hi." She said politely and with enthusiasm, "I'm Lettie Dubois, what's your name?"

"I actually heard that, the squid has helped students back into the boats, if they fall out. I guess he's a friendly squid." turning fully toward her, he grins, "I guess we'll just have to work on that then, don't want to see you injured too much this year due to coordination. Well, brooms I don't fancy much either, but I suppose, I should learn to use one. Quidditch looks like fun. But I personally think I might be too big to use one.

Lettie said with an enormous grin on her face, "Maybe something is keeping him occupied, I just hope that he's not hurt or anything...or in prison, and the staff don't know about it." Her eyes widened as she began to think of all the reasons why the Headmaster wasn't present.

She scowled a bit and smirked, "I dunno, my cousin thought he could help me with that too, but all I ended up doing was damaging the chimney to my family's house." Taking a sip of her juice she continued, "I'm more of the sort to watch Quidditch, not play it. And you are definitely not too big to fly a broom. haven't you seen some professional Quidditch players? They look as strange and out of place as a rhino would if it tried to ride a tricycle." Laughing at her mental image, Leticia nearly spilled her goblet of juice.

"Nice to meet you as well, Luke." Leticia replied as she looked at the boy's hand. "Erm, sorry, no hand shaking." She held up her swollen hand, "I had an accident earlier. So, is it your first year attending here? You look like you could be a seventh year."

Iris just smiled at him and looked over to the staff table to see if the headmaster was ready to give his speach was ready.

Oops! With a wry grin, he replies gently, "I wouldn't push you to do anything really. I just thought maybe you'd like some, well one on one...I mean we don't have to work on it, that is." he breaks off, after stuttering a lot.

"I think watching it might be more fun...Definitely for this year anyway." laughing at her description. "Well, I definitely don't want to look like a rhino!"

Lettie sighed, thinking about the day her family had gone to an amusement park and had gone on a ride that reminded her of flying. "Have you ever gone to a fun park?" She asked, wondering how much Ott knew about them. Leticia had the main idea alright, but not the in depth stuff.

"Oh, my hand?" Lettie said and looked down at it, "I went to shake someone's hand to make up, and they didn't want to I guess, so they crushed it." She shrugged, "It was my own stupidity I guess, maybe. It was the second time the guy had done something like that." So he wasn't a seventh year then? That works too. "I'm new here, but I'm starting as a fourth year. How long have you attended this school?"

"who was this person?, I can have word with them if you like" He said boldly standing up and flexing his muscle's like some sort of body builder.
"oh your new here he said rasing his eyebrows.
"well its a big palace,very easy to get lost. i still use that excuse to some of the professors when I'm late to there lessons, hahaha never really works. but yeah i've been here since i was a little firsty ha. seems such a long time ago....So can i take you for a midnight stroll along the lake later. dont worry the Professor's never go on watch the first day, maybe its because theve all released that there back in school and they all depressed at the fact they have to teach us again hahahah" he said laughing

She said, mildly concerned, "Knowing me I won't make it to any classes on time." Her hazel green eyes glanced around at the walls, just realizing how massive the stones that were used to make them were.
She looked over at Luke, "A midnight stroll?" Lettie repeated, unsure. "I dunno, I don't want to get in trouble the first day I'm here, though it already seems to have happened." First the hand, and then the incident with that Willie boy, maybe Leticia was a jinx...."You think there won't be anyone out? Of course, now that you say it, there will probably be several professors making the rounds." She sighed and thought things through. "I think I'm going to pass on that idea. Sorry. But maybe a few of us can get together in Hogsmeade and you can give us a tour there? I'm afriad I've already made plans to walk the grounds with Ott tomorrow." Lettie nodded to the fifth year boy next to her.

Luke said with a wicked smile of his face.
flicking his finger as green flame wrapped around his finger and up his arm
"catch ya later" Luke said standing up and waiting for the right moment to leave while the professors didnt see him

I think we are going to enjoy Charms class a lot" She said while putting some chicken wings on her plate. "I wonder how are the teachers, they better not be strict." Sydney said to Lyra, yawning. She was so tired, all she wanted now was a nice long sleep.

"A fun park? Hmmm, I remember a traveling carnival coming to Trondheim once when I was 10. I remembering getting a little sick on the...ummm... corkscrew I think it was called." he answers after thinking back a little.

Narrowing his eyes, at the older kid talking to Lettie, he shakes his head. Some kids like to be daring apparently, and ignore rules. I'm sure there's a curfew, in the evenings too...

"Eww...I guess you aren't very good with motion sickness then?" Poor thing, Lettie was usually alright with it. "I've never been to a carnival though, they were never around where my family is, and we never found out about them until it was too late."

Leticia looked over and saw the look that Ott was giving to Luke. "You should try to be more agreeable...you're starting to make enemies I think." Lettie said in a quiet voice. "And not just with Luke, I heard your conversation with the prefect." She raised her left eyebrow.

That's never going to happen again.

"M-Mafia? Yeah, I don't think I want to know what was going on over there. It's sort of bad, though, that Gryffindor has already lost points and the term hasn't even begun," Reese told Jack, then she turned away from him and picked up a blueberry muffin. Looking back at him, she added, "I'm glad you came over here. It's nice to like- you know- talk to you again. That NASA conversation on the train was quite interesting." After she said that, she took a bite of her muffin.
