Excited and slightly bewildered Freya dashed to the table and slid in next to her friend. Smiling she said,"I'm so happy we're in the same house." Freya was beaming, the hat thought she could be special, granted it was a hat but still. Looking around the table she took in everything she could. There were so many people here, like her they might of wanted to be special too but see would outshine them all. Her stomach then grumbled reminding her of the lack of food in it.

Damien smiled when Marina let him know she'd be careful. It didn't relieve his worries entirely, but it did a lot to help. He was about to say something when Dom joined them, looking less than happy. When he slammed a balled up parchment into the table, Damien's eyebrows arched, his face concerned again, this time for his friend. "Dom, what's going on?" He hoped Marina didn't mind his pausing their conversation. Dom very rarely actually showed his emotions, especially so spectacularly. It was rather surprising, and made it obvious to Damien that something was exceptionally wrong.

'It's natural for a thing like me...'

First Year | Slytherin | Single | Wearing | Mood; Confused but content

xxxAmelia was still in disbelief. Turning to Freya she had the look of utter disappointment. "My mother was a Hufflepuff....she hated Slytherin! What is she going to say to me?" Giving a weak smile, "I am glad we were sorted into same house though." Then I won't be so alone.[/i ]When the feast started all Amelia could do was push meatballs around on her plate. Her appetite had vanished. The thought of her mother has consumed her. Oh dear, what will she write in her letter?

xxxEven though she was distracted she saw Edajin staring looking confused as she was. She smiled and gave him the look of I know right?. She didn't expect to see him much after he took off. But now it seemed they would be seeing more of each other. Waiving back to him she mouthed a "see you soon".




[OCC; ...]
[With; Freya and Edajin]

Karyna blinked a couple times and smiled. "Okay then. Thank you for the information. I do look forward to learning much more in my time here." Karyna appreciated that Jasmine was so forthcoming and helpful with information. She also realized that this was only a simple concept and that there was so much more to be learned. Seven years was such a long period of time, but still so short to learn a whole new way of life. She wondered if she would ever be able to live on the outside again.

Karyna's stomach growled. She hadn't eaten anything all day and she found herself starving. She looked down at her plate and stared for what seemed a very long time and then looked back up to see students still being sorted. Damn. She thought. How long does this normally take? Her mind then wandered back to the conversation. "I hope to meet more helpful and nice people like you Jasmine." At that she smiled one of her sweetest smiles and moved to give Jasmine a swift hug.

A crumpled up napkin flew across the room from the Hufflepuff table, hitting Michelle Caitlin in the head. On the napkin was a hastily scrawled note to the Slytherin from Adalaide.

Do you CARE about me?
Do you THINK I don't BLEED?
Why are you trying to HIDE behind a stupid LIE
When the TRUTH is your EYES

MARINA EUGENIE ALDRED
PROUD HALFBLOOD
SLYTHERIN FOURTH YEAR

You say you'll never go that far: Happy | But you're not who you say you are: No pressure... | Your time is up in too many places: Damien and Dominic | You've got too many faces: Slytherin Table | Wearing

Marina glanced over in Dominic's direction, her face carefully composed. She gazed at him steadily. The Slytherin doubted he was telling the complete truth about whatever had gotten him so antsy. But she wasn't particularly in the mood to try and extract the truth out of a Montague, which she found to be as easy as giving her cat a bath. That is to say, not easy at all and occasionally dangerous to one's health and sanity. So instead she said nothing and listened to his clever little change of topic.

"I may join the chess one. I haven't got much chance to play at all, except when I'm home and that's against my mum. She loses on purpose anyways and that's no fun. I think there's a tutoring one too this year." Something you might want to look into, she thought silently. Honestly, the boy seemed to spend all his class time daydreaming or doodling little Quidditch pictures. Was he getting all his notes off of Damien?

Of course he just had to mention dueling club. Marina didn't know about him, but she enjoyed dueling. Of course she might have not exactly contributed to him having a nice time there, what with her cold glares and sarcastic comments, but he really just had himself to blame for that. He had started their whole little enmity thing with being a bloody jerk, after all. She'd just been reacting appropriately. Perhaps not kindly, but appropriately.

Well, maybe knocking him off his broom had been a little overly violent. But she'd been the one who'd gotten a bludger to the head, not him! Plus the expression on his face had been priceless. It wasn't like she'd seriously hurt him or anything...

She turned and watched Michelle leave the Great Hall. It seemed Olyvia had passed out. Probably from all the Puffs, who could be a bit overbearing, what with the sudden hugs and all. Of course she felt bad for the whole lot of them now, seeing as Michelle was most likely not happy at all with this sudden turn of events. The pale girl's face looked calm enough, but Marina knew better. "You know, I'm suddenly glad I'm not a Hufflepuff," she mused. "I rather like living."

You've got your HEART in too many PLACES

Always LAYING the BLAME
You're never ONE and the SAME
Could it be that you're AFRAID to look INSIDE
And find you'll NEVER get it RIGHT
