Cordelia picks at the roast chicken that's just appeared on her plate, too busy gazing around the room to eat yet.

"Are all the professors here?" she asks, talking more to herself than the students around her.

She can only see part of the head table from where she's sitting, so she cranes her neck some more. Ah, there he is. She spots the object of her quest and smiles, then turns back to her plate. Somehow, he'd gotten even more handsome over the summer break.

She can't wait for her first Astronomy class.

"Maybe, I can't see." Selene leaned back on her bench, trying to get a look at the whole table at the top of the hall. "Who are you eyeing up now?" The direction of the question, and of Cordelia's eyes, is not missed. "A teacher? You're joking, right?" Selene hid her suprise, mild horror and slight interest as best she could with her goblet. "You've still got at least half of the attractive students still to seduce. You're not going to deprive them of your other wordly charm are you?"

Meg snorts, "Cordelia probably thinks she's too good for students now."

"Cordelia thinks she's too good for EVERYONE!" Kara says, forgetting this is gossip and neglecting to whisper. She has a real set of lungs and her words float across the room.

"She has a REALLY MURKY AURA!" Kara continues. "No offense, Cordelia!!!"

"Well, there you go." Meg takes a drink of her pumpkin juice, wanting to ignore Kara but knowing from experience it's impossible. "Your Murky Aura will stand in the way of your seduction schemes."

"I don't know you should be drinking that, Meggie!"

Kara says helpfully.

"You're looking a bit porkie. No offense!"

Bright smile, Kara looks around for the nearest boy to wave at. Finds one. Good! Waves. Blows a kiss. Attention back to the table.

"Who is Cordelia seducing this year?"

And doesn't she say that loudly?

Meg grits her teeth. Kara knows she hates being called Meggie. With a fiery passion. And she's not porky. She's well muscled. And not scrawny. Like Kara.

In defiance, Meg goes for another helping of bacon and eggs.

"Since it's a teacher, maybe we should just check which lesson on her timetable she's drawn hearts around." Selene grinned playfully. "Or I could see if she's got a secret diary with all her plans for conquest. You've got to sleep sometime Cordelia."

"Speaking of porky." Selene shoves a pie onto Kara's plate. "You better get eating. Wouldn't want that lovely young man over there to go to grab your 'love handles' and get some ribs by mistake." She took another drink of pumpkin juice and stuck her tongue out with a smile, ready to duck away.

Kara really doesn't know she hates being called Meggie. She thinks Meggie is one of her bestest friends EVER.

Third best at least. Depending on if it was Meggies time of the months and all!

"Meggie!" Kara is not one to be ignored. "WHO IS CORDELIA TRYING TO SEDUCE?!?!"

A pie is shoved in front of her.

"I DON'T KNOW WHAT ANYONE HAS BEEN SAYING TO YOU, SELENE!" Says Caps lock Kara. "BUT NO ONE HAS BEEN GRABBING ANY OF MY HANDLES. I AM NOT THAT SORT OF GIRL!"

At the Ravenclaw table, Kirill looks up, and mentally scratches Kara off the 'easy' list. Damn. Because she is hot.

Selene tries and fails to stifle a laugh, while several other students turn their heads at the near shouting.

"Sure, Kara. I believe you. Not sure about the rest of the hall though." Yet another grin, and a wince at the rising noise level. Ouch.

Meg silently thanks Selene.

Then she grits her teeth again, "Don't call me Meggie. And who do you think it is? Same as last year. The Viggster."

"Professor Mortenson?" Selene peers intently. "I don't get it. Does the lack of a razor turn some women on?"

"He smells funny!" Says Kara cheerfully. "Like - you know - a funny smell."

And she explains herself, because not everyone is as smart as Kara Keating.

"Not funny ha-ha. Funny strange. Weird. That sort of funny... You know who I think is totally cute?"

"How many guesses do I get? There's the whole school to go through."

"Tucker Wells!" Meg says it in a sing song voice and with a roll of her eyes. She's heard Kara rhapsodize him too too too many times.
