Welcome to Gaia! ::

These songs in my head: Why must Slytherin table be so far?
Oh what turbulent emotions: Calm
The spirits that stand with me: My housemates
((time skip go!))

As the feast came to a close Xenos smiled lightly. Time to go. Standing up the albino noted just how small some of the first years looked. Was he that small when he first came? Of course he was but did he look so vulnerable? Pushing his musings out of his head he adjusted his glasses lightly. "Your attention please first years. My name is Xenos da Vinci, 6th year Prefect. If you all will follow me I shall lead you to the common room. Get in line and keep up please." He called in a loud but clear voice over the din of the table.

Turning on his heel the tall teen moved towards the entrance to the hall. He looked up across the hall at the Slytherin table. Catching Dante's eyes he winked lightly at his love before moving to stand before the door. His arms lightly crossed behind him he waited for the others to catch up. Once the line began to form he called again, "We're heading for the Grand Staircase. Please keep an eye out for each other. If you get lost ask the paintings or grab an older Ravenclaw. Now let's go."

{exit to Grand Staircase.}

As long as I'm living, I'll be waiting

As long as I'm breathing, I'll be there

Whenever you call me, I'll be waiting

Chase was surprised when both Belle and Hildy were sent to Slytherin. He had been sure that his cousin would be sent to join him in Ravenclaw. But as she stormed away from the hat, he saw a dark glint that suddenly made her look all Slytherin. Though as soon as she saw Belle, her face changed back to sweetness and excitement, so Chase wondered if he had imagined the darkness.

Hildy looked his way and he feigned anger and upset, which worked a little too well. He laughed heartily at his cousin’s consternation and waved her worry away. Silly girl. Well grandmother would be….well, she probably would have a comment about how Hildy was going to shame Slytherin. But he was sure that deep down the old woman would be proud….maybe deep, deep down.

Looking up and down the table, he realized that even without Belle here, there was quite a lot of beauty at the Ravenclaw table. Not that he felt the need to stay ‘in house’ with his romantic interests. Looking up the table towards one of their newest recruits, he saw the boy crying and scared. It seemed that the hat was throwing all kind of curve balls tonight. There was an empty space between him and the boy and he was just scooting down towards the lad when a pretty young thing walked up. He thought that he had seen her around last year. Though he couldn’t imagine how he could have missed her.

She asked the boy if she could sit on the other side of him and the new Ravenclaw gave a sad little nod. Chase reached out to give the young boy a good natured, light punch in the shoulder, “Come on mate, cheer up. We’re a good group. What’s your name again? I’m Chase Balford, third year. And Phi here is a second year.” He gestured toward the red head with a smile, as if he had known this and was not guessing. But he severely doubted that she was older than him. There were so many pretty girls here that seemed to change so much from one year to the next that it was sometimes hard to keep track. So he was using the kid’s misery to talk to the pretty girl…a little. He did feel for the boy, somewhat. Though generally Chase was too good natured and adventurous to understand wallowing in misery, he didn’t like to see anyone so down.
