The Lions sit under a brand new scarlet and gold banner representing their house. Their solid, shiny wooden table is nicely polished with all the place settings perfectly set. It was once said that the Hogwarts House Elves are the best in the world. It is up to your stomach to agree... but surely it will! Why wouldn't it like elf cooking?

If you're thirsty, there is also fresh pumpkin juice and water on the table, regardless of whether or not it is actually mealtime.

Dante had agreed to meet Ellery at her table. Not that he cared about being at a table different then slytherin. He knew enough people of different houses to be comfortable at any table. Even the crazy gryffindor table. Dante sat down at the table and took out a creatures book he borrowed from Professor Draper and read and waited for her.

It should not be long plus she would probably be the loudest one here.

No, she would be. Unless you know Damien came back and started yelling someone's name through the whole great hall. But he was graduated and Dante had plans to visit him over the summer. This summer was going to be fun.

"DANTEEEEEEE," came a shout from the small but leggy blonde as she charged her way towards the Gryffindor table. Ellery took a flying leap onto the bench and slid a couple feet until she landed, unceremoniously, in a heap in front of the aforementioned Dante.

The first thing she did was slide a tattered copy of Psychology for Dummies out of her pocket. The second thing she did was look at Dante - a real hard look. Then she split her head of hair in two and began to make pigtail plaits.

"Sup?"

Yep and there she was. No mistaking that shout. Ellery had arrived. Dante turned to look at her just as she charged over to him and sigh. What was she doing. Was that a flying leap and whoa she was sliding. What was going on.....well seemed like she was okay and was taking out a book. But not reading it only fixing or doing something with her hair. Dante just shook his head in amusement and smiled.

She was crazy. But he was use to it by now.

"Sup Ellery and that was quite an entrance, you okay?"

Well he did have things to discuss with her but those could wait a sec or two.

Ellery finished plaiting one half of her head, finishing by twisting a hair tie around the end. At that moment, she realized that she didn't have another, so she looked around for rubber bands or something that could twist.

"Do you have anything stretchy with you?" she asked him, still scrunching her nose in search. She gave up, then propped her head up with her hands. "I always make good entrances. I excel at them."

"How's life?"

Dante reached into his pants pockets and took out a rubber band for her. It was true she did know how to make an entrance. You could even say it was a talent of hers. Though it sounded like she was saying his name louder every-time they meet. Cool in a way.

"Life's good. Trying to get one of my best friends a girlfriend and I actually have a girlfriend now"

Dante said as casually as he could.

He was not sure how Ellery would react to that news.

Dante said as casually as he could.

He was not sure how Ellery would react to that news.

"THANKS!" Ellery said, accepting the rubber band and plaiting the other half of hair. She eyed Dante critically. "You have long enough hair, I bet I could plait it for you! It would look nice." She finished the plait and wrapped the rubber band two or three times around her hair-

The rubber band stretched to infinity, then snapped with a certainty that scared Ellery. She placed the broken rubber band onto the table.

"Oh." Frowning slightly, but trying to look inscrutable, Ellery avoided eye contact.

Well Dante did not think his hair was anywhere near long enough to plait it. If that is what she was doing to her own hair.

"If you think my hair is long enough you can try whenever you like"

He still had no idea what it was since he had almost no interest in his hair. And what was with that Oh. Was that a oh of you never thought Dante would ever have a girlfriend. Or just a sudden surprise. Dante was confused.

"Yeah she is a hufflepuff and you sure you are alright? "

Dante asked starting at the broken rubber-band. That was his last one

**Ursula Black** · 01-18-2016, 01:47 PM

She was hungry and her hunger wasn't being helped by just food anymore. Being in the castle for a few months was making it harder and harder to curb the hunger she was truly having. Spraying her perfume to hide the scent of the children as she walked a table caught her eye and she plopped down on the seat.

"Having something good to eat I hope dearies. You need nice and plump for this winter." That would work nicely, all the students getting plumper would help her in the end.

Ellery stared at a goblet on the table for so long that it turned blurry and out of focus but still she did not relent. Darn Dante and darn dating and darn darn darn. Furiously concentrating on the goblet, she didn't answer Dante's question. To be honest, she barely even heard it.

She felt one of her plaits unraveling, but she didn't even care. She was morose.

And greaaaat, some weird witch sat down next to her. "No, I'm not hungry. And I like my figure the way it is, thank you very much." She didn't even notice that maybe the witch was implying…eating the children?

She did not look okay to Dante. Look like she was ignoring him now. Well he did not expect that or did he since she did randomly run away from him that one time. He was about to shrug and go back to his book. When the ugly lady from the train and where asking them that we needed to be nice and plump. What was this a bad fairy tale.

"Why do you have treats in your house made of candy and it looks like you need to be the one laying off the food"

Offense definitely meant.

Ellery was in the middle of a predicament…or was this more of a pickle?

Basically, she didn't want to sit next to this old hag. But at the same time, she didn't really want to sit next to Dante…but then she got a whiff of the old lady and immediately slid under the table and sat up close to Dante.

This didn't mean she was talking to him, by the way.

**Ursula Black** · 01-20-2016, 04:28 AM

Ursula laughed at the boys reply, "Candy isn't good for you. No dearie you need meat to plump you up. All candy will do is rot you and make you slow and hard to chew, I mean sick. Yes it will just make you sick." She pulled out her perfume and sprayed towards them to mask the scent. Looking at the table she grabbed a few things in front of her and shoved in her mouth. Food spilling back out as she chewed with her mouth wide open.

"Go on, don't mind me. Go back to what you were doing. Enjoy your time before the end. There is no way to stop it, you'll see."

What are you doing Ellery. Did she really just go under the table. There was no food fight going on. Maybe she was scared of the ugly old women that happened to bother them. Probably not thought since she sassed her back. Dante took a peek under the table before addressing the women he met on the train.

........did she really just say slow and hard to chew. Before Dante could say anything she sprayed that disgusting perfume in their area. Dante was now coughing. It was disgusting. Now she was pigging out on food. Dante could spend an afternoon laughing at this women's antics.

"As long as you don't eat any children in my vicinity we will be good Lady and thank you for those truly inspiring words. Have anything positive to say about our fortunes? Not really feeling all this doom and gloom stuff"

Which is saying something coming from Mister Pessimistic himself. Still Dante did not believe a word this crazy old lady was talking about.

Ellery sank into herself. This weird woman was weirding her out, she didn't want to talk to Dante, the world was falling apart. Why did boys have to go and fancy girls? It was so UNFAIR.

So she just sat. In silence. She might've made a small sad noise.

**Ursula Black** · 01-24-2016, 06:16 AM

She grabbed a chicken leg and bit a big piece off before grinning at the boys words. Skin hanging from her teeth, "Oh don't worry dearie. There will be no need to worry about eating children around here. Soon you will all be doomed and no one will know what hit them."

She moved from her seat and headed back out of the hall.

After all of today's classes, Sam was very ready for dinner in the Great Hall. Maybe it had been all that hard work in Professor Ichihara's class with the familiars. Inwardly, he shook his head at how much of an embarrassment he'd made of himself by walking straight into a desk. And for her to see it!

Hopefully his discussion points and his cool clay dragon made up for it. She did smile at him when she spoke.

Settling into a seat at the Gryffindor table, Sam's mouth watered slightly as he scanned the food present, then reached for the potatoes.

Genny ran into the Great Hall from outside. Her robes were hung off her shoulders messily and her hair would've been bushier if it had enough curls. She'd just come from sending a letter to her family and hung in the treehouse a little before feeling the knots in her empty stomach squeeze harder. So now it was food time before she turned to the common room and enjoyed a Quidditch foosball game against the castle's magic.

"Sam!" She chirped, skipping to sit next to him on the bench. "Hiya." Her hand snatched some of the potatoes from his plate, too.

Sam speared half a boiled potato and deposited it in his mouth. Needed more salt, though. He reached for the shaker and sprinkled some more onto his potatoes. There.

But before he was able to take another bite of his roast beef and potatoes, he heard some skipping feet followed by someone saying his name. He turned. "Oh hi, Genny," Sam returned with a grin. His eyes remained on her a little longer this time to take notice of her wild hair. "What were you doing?" If she hadn't been running around, then it definitely must have been windy out.

So loud, so loud. All that munching, crunching, and slurping. It filled up the whole of the Hall.

Strangely enough, despite the warmth in the castle, you might detect an unwelcome and sudden chill in the air..

Stranger still, the shoelaces belonging two of the students at the Gryffindor table... Seemed to be tying themselves together... Quite neatly and efficiently, until the laces and shoes of the two students were deliciously tangled together. Should one raise, the other would receive quite the shock.

Jessie take a deep breath.

Such a hard day. She made many mistakes. She take a seat and want to eat her dinner alone. She has no choice. Seems like nobody want to accompany her.She want to clear her mind.

Skimming the foods on the table she take another deep breath again. Okay Jessie, lives must go on. Eat your foods and be strong. You could learn from your mistakes and trying harder to make your house to proud of you.

Cheers up.

So what's for dinner tonight?

Ava walked down from her common room with her empty stomach. Hungry tween was here, people! She kinda hoped for some lamb chops and mashed potato for tonight, but she wasn't really picky into food (unless there's broccoli there) so she could basically ate anything on the table. Arriving at the great hall, the young lioness peeked a little to the Ravenclaw table and saw if her twin brother was there. Well, it looked like he skipped dinner again to finish reading the books. Someday she's gonna send a not to him and said "Don't ever skip meals because of reading." Hehehe.

She saw a familiar face on the table. "Hi, Jessie." She greeted the first year and smiled. "You don't mind if I sit here, do you?" She decided to take a seat in front of the younger girl. Oh, they did have lamb chops and mashed potato here!

Jessie thougt that the pudding in front of her was very delicious. Was kind of pudding mf that?

chococaramel?

It would be good to increase her mood. Jessie almost raised her hand when another girld appeared in front of her.

" Oh hi, Ava. Of course." Jessie trying to smiled at her. " Seems like you don't eat for centuries,Ava hahaha..."

Oh glad that the younger Gryffindor girl didn't mind that she's sitting here because having dinner alone wasn't her thing. She grabbed some mashed potatoes and lamb chops. Nom nom nom!!! Yeah, she had a bigger appetite than a common twelve year-old kid. Don't blame her, she needed food for her growth. Oh yeah, and milk. Milk does help for the growth too, right? Seeing there was a big jug of milk, Ava pour some into her glass.

Seems like you don't eat for centuries,Ava hahaha...

She couldn't help but laugh when she heard Jessie's comment. "I'm just hungry." She said. "So, why did you just sit here alone?" She Ava asked curiously.

Sharksy looked better when he was in a good mood with a grin on his food and potatoes bulging his cheek out like that, Genny decided. "Sent a letter to me dad." There was one each week when school started but now homework kept her from sending that many. "Then went up to the treehouse and hung out with the others. I love it, I can say it's my favorite place in the castle." Although technically it wasn't in the castle.

Following a chilly breeze that caused her arms to break into goosebumps, Genny leaned forward and started arranging a dinner plate of her own and swinging her feet under the table. "Which place would be your favorite so far?"
