Phoebe marched right into the hall and waited for her turn. She didn't see Brandon yet, but she remembered him saying he was in the house with a bunch of lions. Which was probably the red and gold table, now that she thought about it. She wondered where she would fit in and decided that she'd fit in wherever. She'd make herself fit in.
Quote:
■ CUNNINGPhoebe is quite cunning, figuring out complex problems with ease and applying simpler solutions to things that need them. She often considers every angle before applying herself, and can't let a puzzle alone until she's figured it out. ■ BLUNTPhoebe is also blunt. She tends to say what she wants, when she wants, and doesn't care about the consequences. This makes it hard for her to find friends and often leads to arguments. ■ SARCASTICPhoebe is also sarcastic, often using ironic tones to belittle those she feels needs it. She tones it down on occasion when she needs to, but she is still likely to use sarcasm in situation where she feels it warrants it. ■ MANIPULATIVEPhoebe also has a knack for getting what she wants from other people. While she's not always successful, she does make sure that she comes out on top in those situations and keeps her cards close to her chest when dealing with things she wants. ■ FRIENDLYDespite her general demeanour, she actually is quite friendly with those she thinks deserve her friendship. She is quick to smile and joke around with her friends, and often will help them out if she thinks they need her help. ■ SPITEFULPhoebe can be spiteful when she's pissed, however. She can and will do things to get revenge, often tormenting the people that have annoyed her. She feels it's their just desserts in those situations.

Peter was furious. The boat ride was uneventful but as soon as he touched solid ground, he fell into the lake that had who knew what in it. He was sure that bint Lucy did it on purpose but he had no proof and he wasn't about to spout off his suspicions like a lunatic. I'll have to get back at her for that. Now he was stuck with the rest of the idiots in the stupidly cold antechamber, soaked down to his socks, waiting. They didn't even have the decency to dry him off here!
They were finally led into a large room filled with older students and teachers and Peter despaired. With his wet clothes and hair and his shivering form, they'd never take him seriously! It's all her fault, he gritted his teeth. His name was finally called and he walked up to the stool and sat himself on it with dignity; this was definitely not how he wanted his first impression to go.
Quote:
PERSONALITY TRAITS:
■ Smart: As a child, Peter loved reading in his grandparents' bookstore and he still genuinely enjoys it. Books provide a wealth of interesting information and as a bonus he could prove his superiority to his sister and other people by showing how much more he knows from reading books.
■ Calm: Peter knows that the first step to losing a fight is losing his temper and that by remaining calm, he would appear superior to his opponent and can rationally think of any counterarguments or replies and can handle anything that's thrown at him.
■ Resourceful: Because he knows to keep his cool and knows all sorts facts, he's a good person to have in any situation. He's also good at coming up with solutions to problems and can be creative when it comes to them.
■ Cruel: While at first it was because of his jealousy of his sister, it was later used as a tool to protect himself from others; either way, Peter can be very callous and cruel. He doesn't sympathise easily and has no regards for others' emotional safety and well being. Because he believes that the only way to protect himself is to prove himself superior, he often enjoys putting other people down.
■ Jealous: From a young age, Peter was jealous. He was jealous of his sister when she was born because of all the attention she had and he was jealous of his cousin and other students because their parents were always present. He gets jealous easily and responds by lashing out at the objects of his envy
■ Hard-Working: 'A knife that isn't sharpened grows dull' is a motto Peter lives by. If he grows stagnant, other people would grow and outshine him and he knows that if he wants to remain on top, he should work hard and he is willing to do so.
■ Oblivious: While he's usually perceptive enough to notice when and how to cause fear or embarrassment and in picking holes in arguments, he's otherwise quite oblivious to everything else including his own feelings.
■ Inquisitive: Peter is naturally curious. He likes to know as much as possible, especially since he does not like being caught off-guard and be embarrassed by unknown information. This combined with his bluntness gets him into trouble often.
■ Outspoken: Peter is not at all shy about speaking what's on his mind and is quite blunt. It doesn't matter if people might get hurt, if people are being stupid, he'd tell them so because they're only embarrassing themselves. Truth hurts.

spaceRuaridh wondered, for the first time that night, if maybe he should've paid at least a little attention to his uncle when they'd gone shopping. This whole sorting thing was news to him, but it was pretty obvious he was just about the only one. He figured that whoever it was that took the other muggleborn kids shopping must've told them what was up, and obviously he hadn't listened to a word Cal said when they were out. He listened to the professor speak with a raised eyebrow, trying not to showcase how confused he was. When she began calling out student names, he tried to watch, but not look too interested while he did it, because ******** that. The hat kept calling out weird-arse sounding names, which he guessed were the names of these house-things they were being sorted into. Was that just dorms? Why didn't they just bloody assign them? This whole thing was weird, and stupid. Some weird, stupid, magical wizard thing that made no bloody sense whatsoever.
spaceWhen his own name was called, he scowled, and went to the stool. He didn't really care where he ended up; after all, he didn't have any friends. Or even want any, because all these kids were probably snotty rich prats who'd look at him like dirt or something. So as far as he was concerned, it was just going to be what bed he slept in, nothing else. So he hopped up onto the stool, glaring all the while, and just hoped this was over quick. And that he could figure out the right fekking table to sit at. Probably the one cheering loudest; he'd noticed the obnoxious cheering whenever a kid was sorted. It always seemed to be a certain table, so he figured that would tell him where to sit. Hopefully. If he didn't know which table to sit at, he'd just go to the closest one and sit. Then when they asked, he'd say he was too lazy to walk to the right one (assuming the closest one was wrong; he had a one in four chance of getting it right by sheer luck). Save face, just a little. He was going into this as the poor, muggleborn (he at least remembered that word, his da had said it often enough), black kid, so he needed to conserve as much of a reputation as he could manage.

DEVIOUS
⇢Rory spent a lot of time as a child trying to avoid getting into trouble, both for things that he'd done, and that he hadn't. Growing up in a less than stellar home environment, with a father who tended towards the strict side, he felt very restrained. Eventually, he began finding clever ways to get around the rules imposed by his father, and to keep himself and his friends out of trouble. He was well known for being the guy to go to when you wanted to pull a prank or cause trouble and not get caught.
ARROGANT
⇢He thinks very highly of himself, in no small part because he's used to being smarter than the people around him (namely his father). He tends to let his confidence go to his head; most of the time when he gets caught doing something he shouldn't, it's because he took an opportunity to brag about it. Generally speaking, he'll even take the fall for a friend... provided he wants credit for whatever he's taking the fall for.
CRASS
⇢Rory's not the sort of person you generally want around in polite company. At his best behavior, he'll swear a blue streak just to see a person sputter indignantly, and he's rarely so well behaved. His sense of humor tends to overlap with the reasons he's undoubtedly going to hell, and he'll never hesitate to tell a tasteless joke if he thinks it'll make someone uncomfortable. This behavior is reserved for people he doesn't like, but then, he doesn't tend to like very many people.
ANTISOCIAL
⇢As stated, Rory doesn't like a good many people. He finds that most people are liars, cheats, or generally awful in some way or another. He's woefully pessimistic about the nature of a person's character, and thinks anyone who seems genuinely nice is up to something. This tends to stem from the fact that, the most noble people he knows are his own parents, and that's not really saying all that much. His father is a gambler, and his mother has conned people into paying top dollar for her fake jewelry in the hope that one day, they'll place the right bet and be rich. Sadly enough, as far as he knows, they're the least horrible people he's related to, so his confidence in the goodwill of others isn't particularly high.
BRILLIANT
⇢No one's really all that certain where Rory's brains came from. His father has vague memories of his younger brother Cal being clever like his son, but he didn't pay much attention before Cal was off to his 'special' school. As such, Rory's intelligence is something the family has trouble coping with, a fact Rory is more than happy to take advantage of. He slacks off in school and still makes near perfect marks, and frequently outsmarts authority figures when the mood strikes him. His mother has had him tested a couple of times, convinced that he was a genius, and that they'd find a way to take advantage of that fact. Rory responded by purposefully bombing the tests.
FLAMBOYANT
⇢This particular trait is another one that seemed, at least to his father, to come from no where. Rory's not one to shy away from attention, particularly if it's pissing someone off. So, he delights in making as much of a show of himself as possible. A lot of his affectations evolved from a desire to annoy authority figures however possible. He also took up an interest in art and theater, and with that interest came the sort of eccentric dress and attitude that is common among actors and artists. He's prone to wearing what he likes to call 'war paint', and tends towards bright colors, unless dark is required. Anything to stand out and rile up the people who've earned his distaste.

Lucy smiled when Mina the ride was good, although she was sorry to hear they ran into some trouble. "That's good. And don't mind Kim, your shoes are good," she giggled. Before she could reply, Professor Thorne led them into the Great Hall and Lucy stared. It was a bit smaller than what she'd expected but it was still grander than she'd thought. She waited in line as her fellow classmates were sorted, playing with her bag until finally her name was called. She took a deep breath and walked confidently to the stool. She didn't care what house she got, she would enjoy her time here either way.
Quote:
PERSONALITY TRAITS:
★ Fearless: Lucy can be called brave but she's better described as fearless. Her family encouraged asking questions and taking action when she needed to so she doesn't understand why one should hesitate. However, even if she does become afraid of anything, she'd still persevere because who else would?
★ Protective: It might be part of her 'big sister' instinct but Lucy's fiercely protective of her family and friends, especially her brother. As an older sister, she considers it her duty to take care of her brother and this trait extends towards others she's close to.
★ Lazy: Lucy can be very lazy, especially when it comes to things she doesn't enjoy or finds boring, like schoolwork. She'd leave things to the last minute and always tries to find ways to reduce her workload and hates being forced to do things.
★ Loyal: Lucy's very loyal to her family and friends. She doesn't understand why people would choose to betray anyone at all; why would you leave people behind when they're counting on you and cause unnecessary pain? They're the only people you can definitely trust
★ Passionate: While Lucy can be lazy, she's extremely passionate about the things she loves, like sewing, and she becomes a hard worker, determined to succeed at it.
★ Outspoken: Lucy is very outspoken and blunt; she doesn't hesitate to speak her mind and often talks without thinking. She truly doesn't understand why she should beat around the bush when being direct and honest is much more helpful and quick.
★ Extroverted: Lucy hates being alone; she is happiest and most when she's around friends and family and she feels lonely quite easily. In fact, one of her greatest fears is isolation; she can't stand even the thought of it.
★ Confident: Lucy always had plenty of self-confidence. She isn't arrogant; she knows what she is able and unable to do and knows her limits, but she's confident in herself and in her abilities.
★ Carefree: Lucy is a very relaxed person. The only person that causes her to worry is her brother but otherwise, she's very carefree and laid-back, rarely worrying about the future or thinking of consequences.
★ Independent: From a young age, Lucy believed the only people she could rely on and trust were her family and friends. She doesn't fully trust anyone else unless she gets to know them better and has a particular disdain for adults and authority, thinking they're useless and generally unhelpful.

“What is that…?” Kimberly whispered to Alana and Candace. Was she really seeing a ratty old hat? Couldn’t the school get a new one? She didn’t want it on her head. She didn’t like it at all. ‘Haven’t they heard of the word unsanitary? I know I have.’ She thought to herself for once keeping her mouth shut. She deeply dreaded her name being called and that didn’t chance when it was called. Looking to the hat and the stool she didn’t want to go. “Go, Kimi.” Candace whispered to her quietly before giving her a light nudge. Kimberly looked at her blonde friend before bringing herself to walk over.
Never mind the shoe on her feet right now. Kimberly didn’t care about that. She just didn’t want that hat on her head. It didn’t look clean… there was definitely dust she was sure. ‘This thing has been on other people’s heads…’ She thought sitting down on the stool. “Please don’t give me head lice…” She muttered under her breath. There was a certainly level of displease that Kimberly could not ignore despite her stirring curiosity.
Status :Okay... Forget the feet... A talking hat...? With :Professor Thorne... A Hat?
■ HOTHEADEDI’m a hothead that doesn’t take nonsense well. Opinionated and determined, I don’t know the meaning of giving up and I’m not afraid to be aggressive to get the job done. Sometimes you have to be forceful to get what you want. I might also have a small problem with authority but I know when to keep my mouth shut. It’s just hard when you’re agitated. So, I’ve got an attitude I don’t see a problem with that. ■ BOSSYI’m self-confident and like telling others what to do. Okay, I’ll admit I can be a tad bossy… and I’m a bit of a control freak. I like calling the shots. At times I can be pushy when I want something. Luckily I have my friends to rein me back in. It’s not like I’m power hungry or anything, I can let others take the lead… I just prefer it to be me most of the time (even if I don’t like dealing with some people). ■ LOYALI’m loyal and hardworking. I may come off as selfish sometimes but I’d stand up for my friend, my beliefs, and am willing to go out of my way to help people (some that I may not even know). Yes, even if I don’t like dealing with some, I still would rather help. You can’t leave someone hanging just because you don’t like them. ■ OUTSPOKENI don’t go looking for trouble I just speak my mind when those around me are annoying me. Is that so wrong? At least I use my voice to speak up for those that need it. That’s probably why I like singing so much, people hear you. You can get a message across to others that you wouldn’t be able to if you just spoke up. ■ ORGANIZED I’m a very organized person. I can’t stand messes thus everything has its place. In fact I’m a little excessive over it. In other words unless you want a talking to I suggest putting things back where they should be, which is exactly where you found it.
The Professor set the hat down carefully on the student's head. For a moment the hat was silent before speaking.... Aren't you quite outspoken? In spite of that, you are still a loyal person, One who seeks order. I see you doing well in... Slytherin!

~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~ Carter Zachary Snow Unsorted, First year, Twin, Halfblood ~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~
Carter chuckled, he had pretended to push Ryan into the lake. But kept his arm, so he didn't actually fall in. Unlike the other girl had done to that other boy he had seen. Ryan had been so freaked out. Carter smiled mischievously towards his twin. Not entirely sure if he liked how they were both brunettes again. Ryan had made them silver haired when they were little... Now they were brunettes. Supposedly from his own doing. Mentally shrugging, Carter watched as people were called. It seemed they were called by name. And shortly down the list, there they were. Carter waited. SN was a long way down. And then they had to get to SNO... Sheesh.... Sooo many names.... At least their cousin Sata was there somewhere... Right? The young Snow boy wasn't sure if he liked the idea that he may be separated from his trouble making partner... But maybe he would find someone new? He certainly hoped so. Psh, he was sure of it. Who wouldn't want to be his friend? Well... Oh god, he was over thinking it again. Taking a deep breath as he was finally called, Carter walked up the steps. He sat on the stool and let the hat be placed on him,
Carter's Personality
■ Hard Working - Carter has always been a hard worker. He likes to shine for working hard. It takes a lot to adventure all the time! ■ Outgoing - He is absolutely out there and ready to mingle and talk to people. Why not? It doesn't kill anyone right? He's going to talk to you and probably the person next to you. ■ Adventurous - Carter likes adventure, and he likes to lead the way. He's always up for trying new things and starting a group. ■ Courageous - Carter is brave and will put himself into danger willingly, if only to discover things. OR to protect his 'little' brother. ■ Fun-Loving - Carter likes to have fun, and usually that is in the form of a prank. Mostly on his brother, but sometimes on others. If it can get a laugh and not cause any real harm, he's all for it.

~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~ Ryan Apollo Snow Unsorted, First year, Twin, Halfblood ~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~☆~
Ryan was slowly coming back from losing his heart. Or having a heart attack. He wasn't entirely sure which. Carter had almost thrown him into the black lake. And it wasn't funny. The brunette stared wide eyed as he was led into the great hall. Suddenly incredibly aware of how many people were in the enormous room. God, he would like to shrink to the size of a mouse and scuttle away. Maybe then he wouldn't have to be sorted. He could learn from the rafters and sneak crumbs off the floor. Shivering, Ryan was brought back to attention as the sorting started underway. And soon, too soon, it was Carter's turn. As the house was called, Ryan couldn't exactly hear himself think. It was his turn next. Oh god. That hat was on everyone else's head... It's was dirty. It was old. It probably smelled. They called his name again, and Ryan finally pushed himself through the much thinner crowd, determined to get this over with. He didn't even think of his twin as he tried to get the thought of the hat out of his head. Deep breathes. He kept telling himself. He sat down, and awaited the hat's decision...
Ryan's Personality
■ Hard Working - Ryan has always been a hard worker. Although never appreciated for his work, he's also fine with that. Instead, he would rather know that he has done his best. Not that every one else knows. ■ Shy/Quiet - Ryan has always been the shy and quiet of the twins. He has always been his brother's shadow. And just going along with everything. ■ Caring - Ryan has always been a caring boy. He hates to see things get hurt and would rather have everything go well for everyone. He tries to make people feel better. ■ Scaredy-Cat/Anxious - Ryan has always been deemed the pansy. Since his twin likes to adventure and play pranks, Ryan has been worried about getting into trouble, being preyed upon. And the like. ■ Book-Smart - Out of the two, Ryan had always been more into learning from books than from trial and error. He lacks the courage to put it to use, but otherwise he would rather read.

Skylar followed her classmates into the Great Hall, standing in line and keeping her head down as she walked. She had heard of how amazing the hall looked during the feasts, but she was too terrified to even consider looking around her. Listening to the murmurs around her, the small blonde girl wondered which house she would be sorted into. She definitely didn't think she was Gryffindor or Slytherin material, which left Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. Honestly, she could see herself in either house. She was a lot like her mother, so she heard, and she had been a Hufflepuff. When it was her turn, Sky shyly stepped up to the stool, quickly taking a seat. Her shoulders were slumped over, her eyes staring at a spot on the floor as she waited for the hat to announce it's decision.
xxxP E R S O N A L I T Yxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
■ INTROVERTEDSkylar has always been a quiet child. She has hardly spoken to anyone growing up, and if she did speak to someone, they were very special to her. Skylar is also very shy and has a hard time making friends. When put in a situation in which she is the main focus, she will freeze and shut down from fear. ■ TIMIDSkylar is very easily frightened. If someone were to jump out from behind a corner or something, she would jump and probably cry. Skylar is not brave at all. She chooses to stay back when presented with a conflict, letting someone else handle the situation. ■ DEPENDENTSkylar has always relied on someone else to do things for her, mainly her mother. It's not that she can't do these things, but she likes the feeling of being taken care of. Her being the baby of her family doesn't help her case. ■ LOVINGSkylar is very compassionate to people she trusts. Once she manages to make a friend, she will always stick by them. ■ GENTLESkylar has a very mild temperament. She is kind to those who treat her the same way, and even if they don't, she isn't hateful towards them. ■ CREATIVESkylar has always had a vivid imagination. She uses that to assist her in her music practice. She also loves to draw.
She sees them walking in a straight line, that's not really her style. And they all got the same heartbeat, but hers is falling behind. Nothing in this world could ever bring them down. Yeah, they're invincible, and she's just in the background. And she says, "I wish that I could be like the cool kids, 'Cause all the cool kids, they seem to fit in. I wish that I could be like the cool kids, like the cool kids."
When the crypt doors creak and the tombstone quake... Spooks come out for a swinging wake! Happy haunts materialize and begin to vocalize; Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize! Now don't close your eyes and don't try to hide... Or a silly spook may sit by your side; Shrouded in a daft disguise, they pretend to terrorize.
Deaus felt bad for not being more social with Garnet or other students in general. He just hoped the boy did not think him strange. Once Deaus had reached the school he was looking around for ghosts, a bit sad he had not seen one yet. He blinked seeing the dusty old hat, talked and wondered if it was a ghost playing a trick. He was still pretty knew to magic, could people make items just start talking, did it have to be a hat, could other clothes be made to talk and find out your house. Was there a set of clothes that came with the hat that were lost, He would hate to be the talking shoes or worse the talking underpants. Once it was his turn Deaus smiled a bit and said."Hello, Mr. Hat, I hope you are having a good day today." He then had the hat in question get plopped on his head as he wondered his curious little thoughts.
OOC: Deaus' Personality
People say that, in a nutshell, I'm Cheerful, and enthusiastic about my hobbies and likes. I like learning a whole bunch of things about the world now that I can explore it and once I found out about magic I can't wait till I can learn it. I also like caring for things like my pet bird Gwen, I guess I'm pretty brave, I love watching horror films, even though I'm too young for them. I've been called creepy by some and I've been picked on for it so I don't like it when people are bullied. I'm headstrong in my beliefs, not letting others stop me from doing what I think I need to do. I guess I have problems with authorities sometimes and I also hate religion... I also don't like talking about my past, I mean I'm happy now that's all that should matter.
As the moon climbs high o'er the dead oak tree- Spooks arrive for the midnight spree! Creepy creeps with eerie eyes... Start to shriek and harmonize! When you hear the knell of a requiem bell; Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell; Restless bones etherialize, rise as spooks of every size.

THERE'S A WILD THING IN ALL OF US. IT LIVES IN OUR PASSIONS AND THE PEOPLE WE LOVE, IN OUR SUBCONSCIOUS THOUGHTS, OUR BELIEFS. IT'S EVEN MADE A HOME IN THE DARKEST PARTS OF US. BUT WE CAN'T BE SCARED OF IT. WE HAVE TO BECOME IT.
The older woman spoke with such a nice tone and instructed the group to follow her through the doors to the Great Hall. As soon as the door opened, Abigail’s heart filled with glee. She got chills and a huge smile came across her face. She couldn’t explain why any of this was happening to her. It seemed out of her control, but she liked it.
She followed in line, but not too closely, and stopped as the group did. One by one she heard name after name as they were sorted into their houses. Looking around at the people Abigail could only hope to be welcomed as with such passion as the others were. But which house would she be sorted into? Both of her parents were Slytherin. Actually to think of it most of her family was sorted into Slytherin, though there were a couple of Ravenclaws and Gryffindors. Thinking back real hard, she assumed there had to be a Hufflepuff or two, but mostly Slytherins.
Before she knew it her name was called out. She gracefully walked up and sat upon the chair. Thinking to herself that no matter which house she got sorted into, she would be loyal to them, Abigail closed her eyes and awaited the hat’s decision.

People say that, in a nutshell, I'm... more than just someone who wants to see others smile. I am a very curious person and tend to cross lines. This may be due to the fact that I tend to allow my intuition lead the way in making my decisions, but it has very rarely let me down. I also look at the big picture when analyzing things for I find it easier that way. I feel that if you focus on all the little details, ideas, thoughts, and actions seemed to become blurred. I’m a very outgoing person when in a group of people and this is a trait that tends to get me noticed. Now if that is positive or negative attention depends truly upon the situation. Though my self-esteem isn’t the best, I never let it show. I tend to put on a smile and push through it, pretending to be a strong independent person, basically faking it until I make it. I do tend to get lose my patience and separate myself if I get bored with a certain situation. I have been warned in the past to be careful, however that if I rely too much on my intuition, assume, or anticipate about a situation, I could misread the signals, but like I said before, I hasn’t failed me but just a few times. Oh, and I forgot to mention that I will get what I want. I will. I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals and though I prefer to take the higher road, I will get down and dirty if I must. I don’t like being deceitful or devious, but if there is no other way, you better watch out. Just a fair warning.
Garnet felt his heart was going to explode into a million pieces when his name was called, and he felt that his whole body was shaking in anxiety. He felt that a hundred people were watching him, and he felt that a lot of them were looking at him in sheer distaste the moment his surname was called first. See, this was why every time he was introducing himself to someone, he always omit his own surname. Besides, avoiding the bad stigma that roots from his family's terrible history was nearly impossible, wasn't it? Hell, even his parents struggle in getting a position in the Ministry because of it; His mother only nearly dodged the bullet because back when she was a student she was known with her upstanding reputation even as a Slytherin.
He crossed his arms as if he was guarding himself against physical contact and took a seat on the stool, warily watching the crowd until his eyes found his childhood friend Richard. Assuming that the redhead was watching Garnet as the old hat was placed on his head, he smiled at him-- Half-forced and half-nervous. Now that the hat touched his head, he pondered; The Mortemers have no concrete affiliation when it comes to houses. At all. Even though, it was quite rare for a typical Mortemer to get sorted to Hufflepuff like his late aunt Beryl. He wondered if he would end up in Slytherin like his mother and his uncle Laz, but he didn't think he had any ambition nor anything he envisioned himself to be in the future. Or maybe he would end up a Ravenclaw like his uncle Topaz? Maybe, it might make sense. How about Gryffindor--- Actually, no. He didn't think he was anything like his Gryffindor father, not even one bit. Nevertheless, he had only have one favour he wanted to ask to the hat, 'All I just wanted to be is to be anything but my father, that's it.' But either way, he would just accept the fact that people would only just avoid him and spite him, but he wanted to think otherwise. He had to.
●BITTER -- Garnet's attitude could be from a family drama background, though that honestly doesn't excuse him to be like that. He gets easily annoyed to certain people and specific situations, resulting something that resembles a b*tchy attitude and he isn't even aware of it. His words tend to be short and rough on the edges, but he would do his best to bite his tongue since he knew better than causing a fight or making enemies... But is he even trying?
●WARY -- He observes before he speaks or acts, and that's how Garnet rolls. He did not think that diving things headfirst is a good idea for anyone, nor was letting his first thoughts take the wheel of his actions. He could also be a bit too wary of things around him, leading him to have anxious thoughts and it makes him quite restless. He can be really cynical, too, as he grew the mentality that he should keep his guard so much that he ended up getting trust issues... So good luck earning his trust when you meet him
●LONESOME -- Garnet doesn't have an ego, but he doesn't really like being not recognized or ignored. It has been a problem ever since his bitterness began to surface onto him, which lead him to think that maybe people just didn't like him because of his family's bad reputation or the fact that his father is a criminal. He is beginning to learn to accept his thinking that the only people who could give him a warm hand are his family alone, but there are times he wants to think otherwise. He likes being in a group of people, especially the type who would not mind his presence even if it meant handling his hard shell.
●ASPIRING -- Someone who had a lot to prove to himself, Garnet wanted to do anything that would make up for his messy childhood and wanted to show people that he is anything but his ancestors. He is pretty much of a daydreamer himself, too, and he tends to imagine things he wished to happen in the future. Fortunately, he knows that he should still keep his feet on the ground as possible.
●SYMPATHETIC -- Garnet, while he usually stays in his shell, happens to have a really warm and sensitive side; In other words, he's never a cold person to start with. He's willing to help anyone and would try his effort to listen to people who needed help, though at first he would be abit reluctant on what he should do first to anyone who needed help.

Clara was one of the early first years to get called, which was something she thanked the heavens for. Though, at first she thought it would be much easier if her surname was ust hypenated as Apostol-Bautista but on the other hand, she decided to count her blessing that her surname already started with the second letter in the alphabet. She was excited and breezed herself to the "stage", taking a seat on the stool and waiting for the hat to put on her head. She wasn't expecting about which house she would end up, to. After all, so far she was the second Apostol and the first Bautista to go to Hogwarts; her cousin Kenji, however, was the first Apostol to study here as a Hufflepuff (Though he once narrated that alot of people thought that he would do well in Slytherin, which was something he was offended about for some reason). Anyway, wasn't that really cool? Give three years and her lil' brother Barry will come in here and she would cheer for him. "Alright, Sorting Hat." Clara said with determination, "If you were able to sort my cousin Kenji, I trust you that you'll make mine worth the sort as well."
●FRIENDLY -- Clara is a really sweet and friendly individual; She would talk to anyone she likes and befriend anyone she likes without exceptions. A cordial and polite one at heart, she is willing to support her friends but she knows when someone decides to take advantage or abuse her kindness-- And she doesn't seem to take that lightly.
●DEDICATED -- She is already taught by her family about hard work and a firm head as a daily basis, and she would get on the job right off the bat. Clara puts much dedication on what she was doing and would be satisfied when the task was rewarded as some bonus. She may not boast about it to anyone, but she at least knows when to take credit of it.
●PERCEPTIVE -- Clara not only has good insight but also a good sense of judgement. She likes to go around and observe everything around her and absorbs any information she gathered, so she was basically like a nosy type. She tends to have a gut feeling everytime she observe a certain person or scenario, and would try to follow her guts until she had it satisfied. She also has good eyes to know if someone in a romantic sense was really worth her time, Clara after all has high standards when it comes to things like boys.
●RESENTFUL -- As much as she is humble, Clara never liked being tricked or worse, having her efforts for one person being taken for granted as she thinks it is very ungrateful. If she is treated unfairly especially when she had done a favor to that one person and thinks she doesn’t deserve it, she will get really salty about it.
●SARCASTIC -- An unfortunate trait she picked from her cousin, she has a thing about seeing sarcasm as a form of humor for her, and it was pretty much her secondary native language. If she's being sarcastic, it is either she doesn't really care or maybe she is just stating the obvious by saying the contradiction in a dry manner. Unfortunately, her sarcasm could be taken by people so literally that Clara would have to clarify that she doesn't mean it like that.

first year - - - - with the others in the Great Hall - - - - nervicited
Standing in the middle of the hall, watching as the others were called up one by one was more unnerving than Lizzy could have imagined that it would be. She watched the faces around her with eager anticipation, quickly follows by a careful attempt to hide it. She had to be in control. She had to stay calm and collected. This was the moment that she had been most worried about - so much hinged on what house she was chosen for. She'd always heard that people really judged that, more than she could have thought possible.
"Ingham" was called near the middle of the sorting, and Lizzy stepped forward as gracefully as possible, trying to force the excitement and the nerves from her face and only managing to push back enough that she was still beaming as she stepped forward. She sat carefully on the stool, making sure that her robes all fell in exactly the right way and then waited patiently, on the outside at least, for the hat's choice.
People say that, in a nutshell, I'm a little angel! Well, my parents say that anyway, and I do everything in my power to make sure that my professors say the same thing. To the adults around me I am always as polite, honest, kind, and generous as I can be... but every once in awhile they catch me doing things I'm not supposed to. Mostly to the people my age. It's not that I'm mean to them either, I just like to make them do things for me, like fetch my things or bring me something. If they don't do what I say, though, then I have to find a way to make them. Or to make them hurt. I like to get what I want, and when I don't, it makes me very angry. Usually I get away with it, but my parents have found out before, and that was never fun. I can generally charm my way out of those situations though - just because I'm young and cute, people think I would never do anything like that on purpose. Besides, I'm always careful to make sure that my word against theirs always ends with me on top.

Avendalena Keira Northtide Eleven~ Unsorted First Year ☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽☽ ☾☾☾☾☾☾☾☾☾
Keira tensed when her name was called and walked slowly to the stool. The excitement she had felt suddenly drained from her to be replaced with hot dread. She realized in that moment that she had no clue what house she would be in. She was too dark to be in Hufflepuff, not chivalrous enough for Gryffindor, but she wouldn't fit in in Slytherin. Or at least she didn't think she would. Worried, she sat down on the stool, anxiously pulling at her robes.
My personality is... well, I'm quite charming, able to speak to different people in different ways depending on how I need to adjust. I am very good at just that: adjusting. If I feel like a fish out of water, I grow lungs and legs, so to speak. Sometimes my grandmother thinks that's dangerous, that I can become an evolved version of myself so quickly. Of course, I'm only eleven. I really don't think that it's a problem. Anyways, I am a very talented actress, at least for my age, and I can almost make the character I play seem real. Or at least I think so. Sometimes, when I don't know how to handle a situation, I make myself become a character that I've acted before, and try to do what they would do. But characters aside I, Keira Northtide, am very brave and usually kind and polite. I am very intelligent and I love reading, mostly to study the characters. I feel it helps me understand their motivations. It helps me understand people's emotions and actions in real life. I would say that my main flaws are that I can adjust so much and morph; some could say I'm not my own person, but I don't think that's true. Still, it is strange what I could and would do to adapt to survive. Another flaw is that sometimes I can be a little proud of myself; not that I think myself above other people, of course not. I just can be a little over-aware of my own talents. Lastly, I am a great friend to people who love me for who I am, and I am usually fair to people I meet unless they cross me. Deep down, my self-pride is false, and I use it as a bridge to keep me from falling into the pit of my self-hatred.

The Sorting Hat
Devlyn Maycry
You can fake that smile For a hollowwhile But thekidsall learn Once those bridgesburn
Flick flopped onto the stool when her name was called and waited silently. Her resting b***h face was out in full force tonight. Even as her face protrayed such lack of caring that it seemed impossible almost, her mind raced with questions. What if she was sorted here or here, what if her and Roo were split up, what if something went wrong? She couldn't shut her brain up,so she just actively attempted to ignore it. 'Okay hat, here's the thing. I don't really care where you put me. My family has no true affliations with any house. So put me wherever. Just... sort me SOMEWHERE okay?'
■ ANTAGONISTIC Flick is not a nice girl by any means. She is often found getting into fights or antagonizing those around her into fights among themselves. She finds humor in violence and anger and is generally the one sitting on the sidelines while everyone screams over something she started. Its hard to become friends with her due to her blunt humor and sarcastic comments. ■ AMBITIOUS She knows what she wants and she's willing to go through all the measures to achieve it. She has no qualms about pushing others down to get her where she wants to be. Her goals are big, but she has no fears over it. She expects to achieve them because she is willing to put in all the work and desire just so she will succeed. ■ CREATIVE Flick is also quite creative. It comes from natural talent she believes. She can often be found curled up under a tree or perched on a roof actively writing/drawing/reading away like the entire world has ceased to exist. She uses her own creativity to her advantage, as she is also very good at solving problems because of it. ■ MANIPULATIVE Flick can almost always be found scheming about something. She likes to be in control of her own situation as well as the people around her to the point she might burn bridges just to stay in control. But generally she is good at manipulating situations to her advantage without anyone else even noticing her doing it. She is very crafty like that. ■ CONFIDENT She is very self assured. She knows she's good looking, she knows she's smart, and she knows she's good at what she does. Generally her own confidence doesn't come off as cockiness but just an air of positive self image that draws people towards her. Of course to some she is seen as cocky, narcissistic, and annoying. She pays no mind to them though. Its a damned if you damned if you don't situation in her mind. ■ DISCIPLINED She is very controlled in her work. Whether it be her writing and art or her studies. Even her friends family and general social life are all very controlled. She gets stressed in situations out of her control and/or messy places. She is very neat and orderly and hates when her things are out of place or people move/change things on her.

The Professor set the hat down carefully on the student's head. For a moment the hat was silent before speaking.... You seem to have mastered the art of only showing what you wish to be seen. Your confidence is to be admired, Your ambitions reach quite far. I know just what to do with you... Slytherin!
