Ronyo smiled at both Tay and Michelle as it seemed he had struck cords with both individuals but in opposite directions. Michelle’s answer came along the lines of a Slytherin, a fact that just solidified her proper sorting, but it did also show she was a practical thinker understanding that both Tay and Ronyo’s extreme cases ideas both had potential for problems. The difference it seemed was that that while Ronyo would be aware of potential disaster that would likely find him, but have little to do to stop it, Tay would likely not see it coming but have many avenues of escape. For the white haired Slytherin he had no issues with his possible fate as it was one he considered preferable to others meeting the same because of him.

“If my demise brings the salvation of many then I have no issue with that outcome,” Seeing Tay’s notable expressions becoming stronger and less subtle Ronyo felt it time to bow out, “I think I have over stayed my welcome. Ms. McHalen I hope you enjoy your time at Hogwarts and it was a joy to meet you, I suspect we may run into each other from time to time. Tay, stay well.”

Ronyo gave a small wave to the boy as he turned and walked away. While he enjoyed talking with the new students after sorting he also knew he had other matters to attend to. This could possibly be the only time when serious matters were not pressing on him, or his friends. There was research to be done, information to gather, puzzles to solve, and skills to hone. With luck he would be able to stay either one step ahead or on par with the matter, and if he couldn’t he could simply resort to having the ability to fight back.

Marina Eugenie Aldred, First Year Slytherin

Wearing
Mood: Annoyed
Thoughts: Why me?
With: The other Slytherins
Friends: Cloe and Eoin

To say that Marina was irritated about being placed in Slytherin was an understatement. She was so mad she could barely think straight. Of course that hat had to put me in Slytherin, she thought bitterly, clenching her knife so tight she looked ready to stab someone. To make matters worse the only other first year she knew was Michelle. Who would probably end up stabbing her in the back whether they were friends or enemies. And Cloe was in Gryffindor, their rival.

Marina Eugenie Aldred, Unsorted First Year

Mood: Freaking out
Thoughts: What is that?!
Location: Slytherin table
With: Other Slytherins
Friends: Cloe and Eoin

Marina couldn't help herself, she let out a small shriek at the sight of the shadowy hand snatching a pumpkin pasty from her plate and dragging it under the table. She drove down the knife, narrowly missing the hand as it stuck point first into the wood of the table. She kicked out her legs, hoping to get the thing, whatever it was.

Location:

Great Hall with Slytherins

Ronyo had caught the words issued by Tay at the last moment and they had indeed hit their mark. For the white haired boy stooped for a moment before slowly continuing his pace. Tay had spoken about a guy not a girl, but Phi was the only one he knew to have trouble about them. The only other person Tay could be implying would have been…Colton. It was true the boy had been acting strange lately and some of the boy’s normal personality quirks seemed to be toned down and his smell was subtly different from before. Ronyo would have to investigate the issue more now, and while he normally would have gone to Phi for information about the Lion of Gryffindor he felt it inappropriate to do so for the time being, and plus he had not seen the red head as of yet.

Ronyo’s concentration was suddenly broken with the sound of a scream coming from behind him. Turning to see a first year move quickly away from table the shape of a shadowy figure became visible. The sight of Bella moving towards the shapeless mass was comforting but Ronyo was never one to let someone take on an enemy by themselves if he could help it. With that Ronyo spun and took off towards the sight of the disturbance and drew his wands in a fluid motion that almost looked like he willed them to him. The boggart was ready to look at either the girl or Bella which would cause it to shift and form, if it went for the younger target the girl would likely be confronted with her deepest fear for everyone to see. It was not something the young man wished on anyone, especially a first year who had just been sorted.

Ronyo found a spot open on the table and leapt up to gain higher ground and a better angle of attack. He could support and distract the creature from here, and move forward as well. While Ronyo knew the spell to get rid of the creature if he fired it he was not sure what it would change into as he did not have anything amusing in his head at the moment. Also the shade could simply turn to a new victim and reform, or just run away and then they would have a loose Boggart roaming the halls, never a good thing. So Ronyo decide on the suppressive fire role and to hopefully have the girl perform the spell to help keep it at bay in time for a teacher or prefect to come along.

“Stupefy! Stupefy!” Both wands fired the shots of stunning energy towards the Boggart, One aimed for center mass the other for the shades feet, “Bella the ridiculous spell, try think of something to help contain it!” Ronyo called out to his fellow Quidditch player knowing her more than capable of thinking on her feet.
