Welcome to Gaia! ::

Love interest: No One

Ronyo had smiled as Marina spoke seeing she held idea and understood the gravity of such a task, which hopefully would make the possibility of asking her about the club easier. If he could locate a favorable lion, eagle, and badger now it would make the transition much easier and hopefully less stressful on everyone. That would be the trouble, finding a group that could work together as well as Ronyo had with his three friends of the other houses, but it was a task Ronyo knew must be accomplished for the betterment of the school.

As a first year approached Marina Ronyo paid extra attention to the boy as he made a note to introduce himself and moved in to cover his final words. Ronyo's hearing was better than normal from his times roaming the forests around his house and hunting in the same woods before he came to Hogwarts, but the first year had done well to cover the made consonants in his speech to break up the common sounds. Also whatever was said was quick and to the point as it was about a moments worth of time the exchange happened. The follow up wink and the quick look from Marina showed the comment had been bold and maybe even a bit flirtatious as well. His mind began to work the puzzle out and deduce the logical and also the illogical possibilities of the exchange before he asked Marina. Because if Ronyo knew anything from his time at Hogwarts and his normal deductive skills was, if you have ruled out all logical options then only the illogical remains, and here in the school of witch craft and wizardry the illogical was often the logical.

Ronyo watched the boy move off to other first years and strike up conversations with them as well. He lingered longer on the new group, one of which consisted of Michelle which naturally had Ronyo curious about the words being said. The boy appeared to be trying to make connection and gain influence in multiple areas to see where they went and how best to use them. The boy was placed in the correct house that was sure, and he would have to make a note to watch that one in the future.

"Seems I've made you a bit popular, I apologies if I cause you any undue gossip for a sixth year boy to be talking to a second year girl. Either way it seems you may have an admirer already Ms Marina, and one I'm not too sure about just yet. If he causes you any problems let me know or tell a Jane Doyle of Hufflepuff and we will see about it."

How did we get here? When I used to know you so well?


Marina was staring off into the distance, still thinking on Salling's offer. He was baiting her, and she knew it. The only question was whether to take the bait or not. What to do.... I'll wait and watch, she thought suddenly. That's the best thing to do. Observe before making any sudden moves. Let us see what sort of serpent firstie is. Ronyo's words brought her back. Was he actually worried about her? Granted, there could be some rumors when a sixth year and second year were seen in deep discussion, but she wasn't very concerned. Let them think whatever they wanted to. "I'll be sure to." she replied with a slight smile. "But I don't think he's an admirer. He's offering a deal, and I've yet to decide what my answer will be." Her gaze drifted to where the Salling was now, talking to Michelle. Maybe she'd ask Michelle about him later.

A napkin floated through the air gently, and landed right in front of Jade. It was a bit crumpled but nothing to bad. Underneathe his previous note was an answer in curling cursive letters.
Hey you,
I'm perfectly fine way over here. I'd be aware of Mitchy. She is a Slytherin after all. No offense. After your prefects show you to your dormitory, meet me in the Dungeon Chamber on Level 2. It shouldn't be to hard for you to find.

Jessica Sassareth

Slytherin Prefect, Sixth Year

When Jess got to the main hall and sat quietly observing the new Slytherins, politely clapping for each new addition to her house. Thoughts traveled inward, as the young redheaded woman was fully aware of how each breath she took now was with absolute ease. Smiling slightly at the irony of what everyone else around her took with granted -- the ability to breath without any pain.

Twirling her now radiant red locks gently within the fingers of her left hand, Jess could even feel the life within her hair still marveling at the sight. A hungry growl seemed to almost escape her stomach, while the willowy prefect breathed the aroma of the wonderfully delicious smells wafting into her nose.

This seemed almost like Jess was now living someone else's life and reveling in it. In the last few years, the green eyed witch was only concerned about surviving the next day, as if she was living under a death sentence (and in many ways she was).

But now.... Now, this feels like the first new day of the rest of Jessica Sassareth's life. The world now held no limits for the young mage, and Jess planned to make the most of it vowing to never forget the lessons she learned from her experience -- never take anything for granted.

Zoning back into the events at her own table, Jess practically beemed her slightly devilish smirk. Anyone seeing Jess might not immediately recognize her now. Though her skin was still pale, the prefect no longer looked like 'death warmed over.' the shade of her skin was leaning more toward peach than grey. Bright focused green eyes scanned the table, getting a feel for how the new Slytherins seemed fitting in with the ones she knew.

Noticing several of the younger standing up for their views widened Jess' smirk a bit. Especially, when the redhead noticed Ms. Catlin standing up for her Hufflepuff friend. A bittersweet memory did pop up in Jess' mind; she still missed Charlotte Hattington.

Something else snared Jess attention away from her absent friend, Ronyo was paying particular attention to a second year. What the devil was the lass' name.. Marina! Yes that was it. Marina Aldred. Jess was curious as to what seemed to be a deep conversation. Though very tempted to interject, Jess didn't wish to accidentally scare the second year. Hoping that Ronyo notices, Jess smiled and gave a pleasant wave at Ronyo.

Jess' green gaze practically smirked at Annabelle, and nodded at her fellow prefect, "How was your summer, Belle?"
