Default Ravenclaw House Table


by Beatrice Castell (xXxPandora)

The Eagles sit under a brand new navy and bronze banner representing their house. Their solid, shiny wooden table is nicely polished with all the place settings perfectly set. The food will arrive after the Headmistress' traditional start-of-term speech. To all Ravenclaws, both new and old: welcome to Hogwarts!

Default Anyone can claim her!
Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.

Hope found her table easily enough. Yes, her table. She claimed it as such as she sat down and tried to keep the excitement squished underneath with an extremely arrogant smile plastered on her face. She had read about all the houses and, in her opinion, she was in one of the best places for her. She was placed in the house that had some of the smartest kids in school. Sure the whole school could be filled with 'smart students' but this house was perfect for her because she was the smartest person she knew. It wasn't just book smarts either. She watched and waited for the rest of the students to join her.

Woah, another term was starting.

But pretty much everything looked the same. Well, so far it did. Jun looked around and couldn't really find anyone to sit with. That was fine with him since he had some strange interactions on the train. From Kevin getting clothing pins on his fingers to Alexa and him bonding over candy and what to do to annoying firstie. So far, the term was going okay. Finally, he decided to just sit anywhere and maybe someone would show up. Anyone new or not would do. Either way, Jun would just over hear conversations. Then he remembered a letter his girlfriend wrote to him. He didn't feel like reading it right now. Someone could be nosy.

Mo dropped into a seat around the middle of the table, giving the girl already seated nearby a broad grin. These were the very best seats, well situated to see the whole table and the other tables and any action that might occur on the dais. Not that any ever did, but just in case someone spontaneously burst into flames, Mo wanted to see.

"I'm Mo. Welcome to Ravenclaw," he reached down the table and offered a hand to the girl seated there. First years were so SMALL. "Do you play Quidditch?"

As far as greetings went, that wasn't the worst.

He gave a nod to the boy who seated himself nearby, although he didn't bother to reintroduce himself. Same greeting to everyone. "I hope they don't hold up the food forever, as they are wont to do. I'm famished."

"Hope." She said introducing herself with a curt nod. "Thanks." She took the boys hand and gave him a small smile releasing it just a quickly. She still wasn't too fond of people. She shrugged in a non-caring kind of way. "Never tried it. Muggleborn." That was the simplest explanation she could give without going into all those awkward questions of why she didn't play. It seemed like that would be her only disadvantage here. She sighed in slight discontent at the fact that she would be just a small step behind until she became a step ahead.

"I've read a few books on it though. It sounds simply fascinating." Now she sounded like a book worm. Fantastic. So much for cool and collected. "You play though, right?" Why else would he ask her if she did? Everything had a reason.

be curious, not judgmental

A growling stomach told Sophie that she should've stocked up on more sweets from the food trolley before they got off the train and made the voyage up to the school. The knowledge that a hearty feast ahead only made that hunger worse, but it wouldn't be long now, as long as there weren't TOO many new students to be sorted - she wanted to get back into the swing of things as soon as possible and race everyone up to the common room.

Spotting Mo already seated down the way, Sophie hurried to beat anyone to one of the free spots next to him, kicked her leg over the bench, and plopped down onto the seat next to him as if declaring her territory proudly, arriving just in time to hear him chatting it up with a new first year! Cuuuute! She listened for a little bit before chiming in, "Welcome to the house, Hope. You're with the best of the best. The winners even when we don't win anything." Like last term. "I'm Sophie." Just so she could place a name to a face for the future and such.

Once again, Caterina found herself seated at a table that did not belong to her. Although, considering that she'd spent every feast seated with the Ravenclaws for some matter of time, she felt that maybe she could pass as an honorary Claw. None of them seemed to mind when she had food. Which, she did, of course.

"Hi Mo. I'm Caterina." She paused behind the boy and kissed his cheek. "Thanks for the welcome." Even though he had been obviously directing that to someone else, she was going to reply as well. She placed herself beside the boy and opened the package of cookies from home. "Cookie?" She took one for herself before offering to the handful of others who were around, including Mo and Sophie.

Jun snapped out of his daze when he heard another boy talk. Well, the house captain that is. He nodded back and introduced himself. "I'm Jun," Sadly, he never formally met Mo, just mostly knew he was captain and a year older. But then he mentioned food and Jun's mood went up. Because who doesn't like food? "Long train rides do that to people. Don't think I can ever just survive on the snacks and whatnot," Jun couldn't. But maybe eating too much candy for meals was a bad thing too. Which is why his mum has made him cut down. But thankfully she can't do that while he's at school.

HA.

Doing a bit of eavesdropping, Jun overheard the girl mention she was Muggleborn. "Well, you're lucky to be here now," he smiled at her. "You can learn flying and if later you're confident enough, maybe tryout for the team," Which was fun though you had to be quick. Jun didn't doubt the girl would learn fast. Mostly everyone did. "I'm Jun, by the way, Fifth Year,"

Leah tip-toed to the Ravenclaw Table and gave Sophie a tap on her shoulder. "Hey~ Are we allowed to visit other house tables?" She whispered to the girl.

Without waiting for an answer she plopped into an empty seat beside Sophie and spoke in her normal voice, "Oh, I was so nervous I nearly fainted during the sorting, and it's a pity I'm not in the same house as you." Leah said, sighing. "But now everything seems perfect and I'm now excited for tomorrow's classes!" She exclaimed, beaming.

Lily walked quietly into the great hall and made her way quickly down to the Ravenclaw table, specifically down towards the center, which was seemingly the busiest part of the table. Sliding into a seat, the seventh year gave a nod to the professors up at the staff table before turning to the others. "Hey Captain Mo. Good summer? Hiya Sophie." Lily greeted two of her teammates from the past term's quidditch team.

Seeing some new faces, the redhead gave a smile. "Welcome to Ravenclaw! Or welcome back if you've been here before. I'm Lily, seventh year." Where was everybody?? Was she really that early?

Kace decided to explore the tables. He wanted to see the people he missed on the train. He walked around and noticed Mika wasn't there yet. He really wanted to see her because they didn't finish their conversation on the train while all the commotion was going on.

He was searching but he was having no luck yet....

Sophie's eyebrows raised as she tried not to watch Cat and Mo interact. Really, she tried pretty hard not to, but she DID and a big ol' grin took over most of her face. They were cute. Really nice together. But once they were done having their moment, Sophie called, "Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat," and reached across Mo first to grab Cat's hand and shake it in a mock formal greeting, then snatched up a cookie. "I love that we can always count on you to feed us. You're so good. My personal favorite." She shoved half the cookie into her mouth and chewed delightedly. "'anks."

Awwww Leah was sorted! Offering the girl a welcoming yet slightly disappointed smile at her being in a different house, Sophie patted the spot next to her. "Aw, see, it wasn't so bad after all though, right? You made it through, no fainting! Here, have a cookie - this is Cat and Mo here, by the way, they're the coolest people at this school. Eat, though, if you still feel faint." Being the nervous fainter firstie would probably follow poor Leah all her years. "Congrats on Hufflepuff, though. You'll fit in well there. Lots of nice people. Common room right near the kitchens for easy snacking. S'a good deal." That was the only part of being a Hufflepuff that made Sophie wish she was one.

"Hey Lily." Sophie had already calculated in her mind that this particular teammate would be a seventh year this year. Her last year on the team with them, and then she'd be leaving them. The girl's last start-of-term feast.

Sophie almost got a little sad for her, but it wasn't a time for sadness, so she tried to forget Lily was there for now. No sadness. Still a whole year ahead. Lots of time for fun adventures with friends. A Quidditch Cup to win. All sorts of good stuff.

Sophie. Hope was going to remember her name because she loved her attitude. Like how awesome was this girl with her truth speaking words? The best of the best is exactly how she liked to look at it. Yes! She may not be too fond of friends, or people in general, but this girl right here, she was going to be labeled with the title friend. "Thanks Sophie. I'm really excited to be in this house." She didn't look too much older than herself. "What year are you in?"

SPOILER!!: Cat

"Hi." Hope stared at the cookies and shook her head. "Thank, but no thanks. Maybe some other time." She wasn't too big on eating sweets. She watched with what ease everyone was interacting and how everyone seemed to know everyone. This was good. She could find herself a big group and everything would work out perfectly. "Can I call you Cat or Rina?" She wanted to have something shorter to call the girl because Caterina was really just a mouthful honestly.

"I would love that!" Hope was always into anything competitive because she loved to prove that she could come out on top with the simplest of ease. Jun. That seemed like an easy enough name to remember. "First year, if it isn't already obvious." She was short after all, and a new face, but from what she could tell, it wasn't always just first years who were new to Hogwarts. She had seen some transfer students being sorted.

SPOILER!!: Lily

"Thanks for the warm welcome Lily. I'm Hope. First year." Yeah. She know had a long list of names and faces to remember. She had also seemed to have met a lot of older students as well. However, these meetings right here, at this table, were going much better than the other two encounter she had had with other older students.

Oh, she'd never flown before. That was like a triple dog dare to the soul of one Marcus Branxton, and his smile broadened considerably. "It is fascinating. It definitely is. Reading is an excellent start, but the real thing is better. If you ever want to take a few practice laps around the pitch and let me bore you on how to play the sport, let me know. I'm always looking to recruit new players." Because... the part he'd left out... "I'm the Ravenclaw captain. I play." For real.

Sophie was turning into a Mo shadow so far this term, which he did not mind at all, and Mo gave the girl yet another hair ruffle as she took a seat. He politely ignored her stomach growling, since his was growling as well. Food, yeah? They needed food.

"Hey, bully baby. Make sure you get Hope settled in her new dorm later, ok?" Sophie was a one woman welcoming committee.

Girlfriend! Mo lit up at the dropped kiss, scooting over to let Cat sit next to him even if that meant he ran over Sophie a bit. "Hullo, Caterina. Don't sit too close to me. My girlfriend has a terrible temper." Not true, not true, but Mo enjoyed the look of knowing on Cat's face. She was in on the joke.

"You're feeding me? Give a cookie to Hope and Jun, ok? They can have some of my share."

"Long train rides do that to people. Don't think I can ever just survive on the snacks and whatnot," Jun couldn't. But maybe eating too much candy for meals was a bad thing too. Which is why his mum has made him cut down. But thankfully she can't do that while he's at school.

HA.[/B]
"I tried looking for the trolley, but I swear the lady was hiding from me this year," Mo made pathetic faces about his inability to buy a snack on the train. He would gladly stand in line, but he'd never managed to find the line. He needed all the free Cat-cookies he could get.

"Nice to meet you, though, Jun. Have a cookie... Cat is the best baker at Hogwarts. She's going to be a professional chef one day, and then we can all eat for free at her famous restaurant." This was a real thing in his brain. "Do you play Quidditch?" Y'know... for reasons.

Seeing some new faces, the redhead gave a smile. "Welcome to Ravenclaw! Or welcome back if you've been here before. I'm Lily, seventh year." Where was everybody?? Was she really that early?
Lily! Mo already missed Taylor's presence, and they hadn't even held tryouts yet, and now he was going to be losing another player. He'd have to make the most of her this term. "Hey, Lil. How was your summer?" She was smiling, so that seemed like a very good sign.

Resident Ghost of Ravenclaw | Intelligent & Evasive

A quiet summer with the Castle empty of students was something the Lady was fond of but at the same time she missed the titillating conversations with her Ravenclaw students in the Common Room--not to mention the discussion over the tough riddle here and there.

But the sound of living feet began to permeate the stone walls below and the Lady decided she would welcome the new and returning students. She floated silently through a fireplace-lined wall and landed in an open section of the Ravenclaw House Table.

But once they were done having their moment, Sophie called, "Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat," and reached across Mo first to grab Cat's hand and shake it in a mock formal greeting, then snatched up a cookie. "I love that we can always count on you to feed us. You're so good. My personal favorite." She shoved half the cookie into her mouth and chewed delightedly. "'anks."


Awwww Leah was sorted! Offering the girl a welcoming yet slightly disappointed smile at her being in a different house, Sophie patted the spot next to her. "Aw, see, it wasn't so bad after all though, right? You made it through, no fainting! Here, have a cookie - this is Cat and Mo here, by the way, they're the coolest people at this school. Eat, though, if you still feel faint." Being the nervous fainter firstie would probably follow poor Leah all her years. "Congrats on Hufflepuff, though. You'll fit in well there. Lots of nice people. Common room right near the kitchens for easy snacking. S'a good deal." That was the only part of being a Hufflepuff that made Sophie wish she was one.


"Sooooooooooooph." Cat responded, giving the second year girl a tap on the nose with a cookie. "I'll have to stop thinking of you as my little firstie. You're no firstie anymore. You're a seasoned Hogwarts veteran." She put two more cookies in the girl's hand before letting others take over the package. She nibbled from her own cookie and grinned at Soph, "After the first term waiting for food, I wised up pretty quickly."

She glanced at the girl who Sophie seemed to have taken under her wing, and felt a little bit of pride. Cat had definitely taken Sophie under her wing last year, and now she was returning that to someone else. That was the sweetest thing! She wiggled her fingers at the first year and offered more cookies for that side of the table.

"Can I call you Cat or Rina?" She wanted to have something shorter to call the girl because Caterina was really just a mouthful honestly.


Cat shrugged, but not unpleasantly. "That's fine, no worries. I always have food around." Always. Never ever without food. Heh. "You can call me Cat, if you want to. That's what everyone calls me." Save for professors and her parents, but they hardly counted, right?"

Cat smiled warmly in the boy's direction and settled the package of cookies on her lap so that he could take some for himself or to pass around. She still had one of her own that she was nibbling on. "I've heard about your girlfriend. Heard she's a little scrapper." Emphasis on the little. Sigh.

"When have I ever not fed you? Name one time. I dare you, you can't do it." Cat grinned and gestured to the cookies. He could have as many as he wanted. "Pass them along." She nudged his arm. He could do his house duties and pass out the cookies. That was surely part of the Captain's job, right? Right.

"Good," Jun grinned. So far, the girl was really enthusiastic about flying. Jun loved to fly. The adrenaline rush he got from it made him giddy and not want to get down. Thankfully his neighbor helped him practice flying. "Ah, I'm sure you'll get adjust here just fine. Takes some time for everyone," Just like him. But then again Jun kept to himself a lot his first few years here.

He laughed. "Kind of lucky you weren't there actually. A first year was being rude to Professor Bellaire and he got clothing pins on his fingers," Which Jun still thought was funny. But Kevin deserved it for bothering the professor who was just trying to show her grandson around. And of course Jun always had to get involved with Kevin's little scenes.

Jun accepted the cookie, giving a smile and nod to Cat, and took a bite. GOSH THESE WERE AMAZING. And Jun was jealous he couldn't bake like this. Cook, he can do. But not so smart on the baking. And his mother kept him away from the kitchen as much as she could. Eat free at her famous restaurant. That was something Jun could get used to. "A bit, haven't played too much. But I plan on trying out this year. Maybe I'll make the team, even if it;s just as a reserve," Because either way he'd be on the team and would probably get to play at one point.

He was searching but he was having no luck yet....
Tousled hair wasn't a strange thing was it? She wondered her way over to the Ravenclaw table, a half smile plastered on her face, and the flushed cheeks didn't help with her story of nothing happening. She knew this. But still, she wanted and she had no idea what she wanted to do. Although she spotted Kace hanging around the table and smiled immediately.

She sent Kace a quick wave and a smile as she took a seat near Hope, Mo, and Cat. "Welcome to Ravenclaw Hope!" she beamed over to the younger blond claw-girl.

As she was about to turn her attention back to Kace the Grey Lady seemed to float through the fireplace and land on the table. "Hello Helena, how was the castle this summer?" she asked before turning quickly towards Kace and motioning for him to take a seat. Who really cared if there was one spot of yellow in an ocean of blue.

"Hi." Hope stared at the cookies and shook her head. "Thank, but no thanks. Maybe some other time." She wasn't too big on eating sweets.

"Thanks for the warm welcome Lily. I'm Hope. First year." Yeah. She know had a long list of names and faces to remember. She had also seemed to have met a lot of older students as well. However, these meetings right here, at this table, were going much better than the other two encounter she had had with other older students.
Gwen stepped toward the Ravenclaw table, scanning quickly to decide on a good place to sit. She spotted a girl who she had watched being sorted just a moment ago. Faith? Charity? No, Hope! That was it. She stepped over toward the other girl. "Mind if I sit here?" she asked, sliding in anyway. The girl couldn't very well say no, that would be rude. Regardless, Gwen hoped she wouldn't mind. She was going to make friends if it killed her.

She didn't look too much older than herself. "What year are you in?"

"As you should be," Sophie beamed. "I'm a second year, so I was just where you are last year. My advice? Take the map Professor Elwood - oh, that's our Head of House, the Divination professor - take the map she'll give you and keep it with you, but use it only when you need it. It's much more fun to explore the school on your own and I found it was easier to remember where things were when I just found my way around. I wouldn't recommend doing that on the way to a class, of course, 'cause you don't want to be late, but if you've got some time to kill? Explore everywhere. This place is the coolest."

Maybe this kid wasn't going to be much of an adventurer, but Sophie was and had a blast last term exploring every nook and cranny for the first time. Hopefully Hope would show some interest in that, too, or just take her word for it.

"Hey, bully baby. Make sure you get Hope settled in her new dorm later, ok?" Sophie was a one woman welcoming committee.

Sophie gave Mo a gentle, playful punch to the gut in greeting upon his ruffling of her hair and gave him a sly grin. She had to make up for months of time in which she didn't get to see him at all, didn't she? She planned on antagonizing him as much as possible for the first week or so to even it out. It was her unspoken little sister duty she had put upon herself. "Quit messing up my hairrrr," she protested, but failed to sound serious as she smoothed it down. She didn't like that he always messed up her hair, of course, but she sure enjoyed the attention and didn't mind his way of greeting. She knew it was their way to bond, and she liked feeling like she had a big brother. An annoying big brother sometimes, perhaps, but Mo was a good pretend one all the same.

"You got it. She seems really cool. Hope we get more good first years like her soon. Keep up the good work on recruiting, by the way." Mo was unsurprisingly superb at getting people interested in Quidditch and Sophie couldn't help but take some mental notes in case she got to follow in his footsteps some day. That'd be fuuuun, she thought.

"Nah, don't kid yourself. I'll always be your little firstie." Probably true. "I do feel like a seasoned veteran, though. It's kinda weird - I feel like I've been here for years and years. Not just one. But sometimes I also feel like I'm your age, so that probably has something to do with it." Sophie had clung to upperclassmen all last term - she was very unimpressed with the people in her year - but she had met loads of cool first years and that new second year, Bart, already this term, so she had high hopes to add some variety to her friend groups.

Though she was pretty sure the older kids like Cat and Mo would always be her favorites. Still, they wouldn't be there with her forever.

Shoving the other half of the cookie in her mouth and staring down at the other two in her hands, Sophie zoned out upon realizing she only had one more start-of-term feast with Cat and Mo after this and dwelled on that far too much. Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch.

I'm always looking to recruit new players." Because... the part he'd left out... "I'm the Ravenclaw captain. I play." For real.



Sophie was turning into a Mo shadow so far this term, which he did not mind at all, and Mo gave the girl yet another hair ruffle as she took a seat. He politely ignored her stomach growling, since his was growling as well. Food, yeah? They needed food.

My girlfriend has a terrible temper." Not true, not true, but Mo enjoyed the look of knowing on Cat's face. She was in on the joke.

"You're feeding me? Give a cookie to Hope and Jun, ok? They can have some of my share."



"I tried looking for the trolley, but I swear the lady was hiding from me this year," Mo made pathetic faces about his inability to buy a snack on the train. He would gladly stand in line, but he'd never managed to find the line. He needed all the free Cat-cookies he could get.

"Nice to meet you, though, Jun. Have a cookie... Cat is the best baker at Hogwarts. She's going to be a professional chef one day, and then we can all eat for free at her famous restaurant." This was a real thing in his brain. "Do you play Quidditch?" Y'know... for reasons.

"I'll keep that in mind and I might just have to take you up on that offer later on in the year. I want to make sure that I can handle the class work before I take on anything extra." The lure of being on the team was there though. She really would have to consider it since it was now out there.

Hope automatically moved him up in her list of people to socialize with. Who better to be talking to about Quidditch, than the captain? As for her class work, she had no doubt in her mind that she would be beyond find, but better safe than sorry.

He could do his house duties and pass out the cookies. That was surely part of the Captain's job, right? Right.


Everyone sure did look like they were enjoying her cookies. Hmm... "Well, if I'm ever hungry I could only hope you would be near by." However, if the feast didn't get moving soon she felt like her resolve may just crumble and she would find herself eating a cookie.

"Cat it is then. You can call me Hope, but that's because there really is no way to shorten it and I don't have a nickname." Hope was fairly certain she would've have called her Cat anyway whether she wanted her to or not. However, she already had one enemy too many, and that was before boarding the train.

"I have no doubt about that. I'm just hoping I'm not going to go flying off the broom handle or tumbling to the earth or something." She gave a small laugh at the thought of her being that bad. She wouldn't be awful. Not possible. Hope was just a little nervous about being off the ground. However, she was determined that she would succeed. She didn't like being less than best.

She looked at the still floating around cookies and caved, taking one. She didn't like eating sweets, but Merlin she was hungry. "Thanks again for keeping Poppy safe. We should get together sometime with our puffs."

Hope stared at the girl and gave a quick assessment of her. She was a first year, much like herself. However, before she could even give a verdict the girl took the seat anyway. "I guess you can because you already did. It's a free bench anyway, right?" She gave her a small smile. "I'm Hope. You are?" There she went again, being a little...weary of people.

She knew it was their way to bond, and she liked feeling like she had a big brother. An annoying big brother sometimes, perhaps, but Mo was a good pretend one all the same.

"You got it. She seems really cool. Hope we get more good first years like her soon. Keep up the good work on recruiting, by the way." Mo was unsurprisingly superb at getting people interested in Quidditch and Sophie couldn't help but take some mental notes in case she got to follow in his footsteps some day. That'd be fuuuun, she thought.


"Nah, don't kid yourself. I'll always be your little firstie." Probably true. "I do feel like a seasoned veteran, though. It's kinda weird - I feel like I've been here for years and years. Not just one. But sometimes I also feel like I'm your age, so that probably has something to do with it." Sophie had clung to upperclassmen all last term - she was very unimpressed with the people in her year - but she had met loads of cool first years and that new second year, Bart, already this term, so she had high hopes to add some variety to her friend groups.

Though she was pretty sure the older kids like Cat and Mo would always be her favorites. Still, they wouldn't be there with her forever.

Shoving the other half of the cookie in her mouth and staring down at the other two in her hands, Sophie zoned out upon realizing she only had one more start-of-term feast with Cat and Mo after this and dwelled on that far too much. Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch.


This girl was still speaking awesome words of awesome and a second year. Hope chewed on the cookie and listened to the information that she was given and filed it away in the important drawer in her mind. Very valuable things to know.

"Sounds like a lot of fun. Thanks for the advice. What's you favorite thing you've stumbled upon so far?" After all this castle was pretty old. There should be plenty of things hidden that haven't been found. It sounds like she was going to have to see if Sophie would want to show her a few places and explore some more new places together.

Uh oh. Hope didn't like her already. This was not working out the way she had planned. "It's nice to meet you, Hope. I'm Gwen." No need to give her the long name. Gwen was already enough of an oddball with her strong American accent. She didn't need to roll out the entire weird name her mother had insisted upon.

Gwen looked around for a second, taking everything in. The ceiling looked just like the night sky, and there were ghosts! "This is so different from any school I've ever been to," she commented, trying to speak the way her mom did, with a little bit of a laugh in her voice.

Another term was starting.

Just like any other, except this was her last and it was at Hogwarts not Beauxbatons. Why her father had to torture her she had no clue. But none the less had sat down at the Ravenclaw table determined to make new friends, maybe?? She looked at everyone and said "Hi." That was a start come out of the bubble she told herself, can't be a friend to anyone if you are shy and awkward.

Unlike previous years, Lana kept walking when reached the Ravenclaw table. She was going to be a little bit different at the opening feast. Being at the end of the table and away from all the happenings of the table wasn't at all fun, so she heading a bit more toward the middle.

There were already a number of seats taken, so she sliding in where she could without really disturbing anyone. The vantage point was a bit more conducive for people viewing and she could actually see the staff table; which she really couldn't see from her usual place at the furthest end.

Glancing up at the staff table, she tilted her head in questioning. There were a lot of new faces or she just wasn't really aware of just who her professors were. Shrugging, she looked back to her table and then the other tables taking in her new vantage point.

She sent Kace a quick wave and a smile as she took a seat near Hope, Mo, and Cat. "Welcome to Ravenclaw Hope!" she beamed over to the younger blond claw-girl.

As she was about to turn her attention back to Kace the Grey Lady seemed to float through the fireplace and land on the table. "Hello Helena, how was the castle this summer?" she asked before turning quickly towards Kace and motioning for him to take a seat. Who really cared if there was one spot of yellow in an ocean of blue.


In contrast to how she was this time last term, Huxley was rather keen getting to the Common Room now, wanting to throw open her luggage and dig in on the delightful things she managed to... acquire over the summer. Yes that is the story she’s sticking with.

But there is this thing about food and she’d be hard pressed to argue against its merits. So there she goes strolling towards the Eagles’ table, sliding promptly onto the seat next to Mika and... oh would you look at that, the Ravenclaw House Ghost.

“Greetings High Lady of Ravenclaw...” the petite brunette added in turn after Mika “Anything new with the Common Room?” Good or bad, she wants to know ahead. She has a thing about surprises.

She turned to regard the blonde and was about to mention that rather chaotic train trip when....

*blink*

She leaned a little closer as she dropped her voice to an even more discrete level “Mika, I know you rather have a soft spot for delicate creatures, but turning your hair into a birds’ nest looks to be pushing it don’t you think?” Yes she’s eying your curiously tousled hair missy.
