This fourth year Hufflepuff beams.

"Just brilliant! 'S my favourite time of the year!"

ray__k September 3 2005, 05:15:35 UTC

"You're a freakin' dork, Jimmy," Ray says, but he's grinning.

the_calcium_tm September 3 2005, 05:17:47 UTC

Jimmy laughs for no other reason than the fact he's alive and eating a Feast the Great Hall. "'S always the best food at this time of year."

ray__k September 3 2005, 05:19:12 UTC

"Yeah, for dorks." But he agrees and helps himself to another helping, heaping the food onto his plate.

Gryffindor table queen_c_tm September 3 2005, 05:24:30 UTC

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?"

Re: Gryffindor table meg_coburn September 3 2005, 10:15:44 UTC

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

Re: Gryffindor table kara_marie September 3 2005, 10:28:57 UTC

"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!!!"

Caleb is excited. In a bouncy, knocking things over kind of way. It's most undignified. He really doesn't exemplify Slytherin poise and superiority at all well. Because...

He's been allowed to commentate! The professors have had some sort of brain lapse and are letting him commentate the Quidditch matches!

He hasn't actually told anyone about the whole colourblind, greens looking red business. It's caused a few mix-ups when he's accidentally walked off with a Gryffindor scarf instead of his own, but on the whole he's gotten away with it. Caleb can only imagine how commentating is going to go when Slytherin plays Gryffindor.

He knocks over a jug of pumpkin juice with glee.

trick_magnet September 3 2005, 06:32:51 UTC

"Christ, Caleb!"

Brian rights the pitcher and cleans up the spill with a spell.

"I guess you're just as clumsy as ever!"

He shakes his head, but he likes the 4th year kid. He has potential. Sort of.

He's not totally hopeless, anyway.

caleb_walks September 3 2005, 06:37:12 UTC

"Pumpkin juice rots your teeth, I was doing you a favour."

Actually, Caleb just can't stand pumpkin. Yuck.

And he cannot stop grinning. It's a worrying expression for Caleb, because generally he really starts smiling when he's amused by something. And he's most amused when he's laughing at other people.

Other people who are letting him speak loud enough that the whole school can hear! Hahahahaha!

trick_magnet September 3 2005, 07:06:43 UTC

"Not me, I hate that shit."

And he does.

"I'd rather drink my own piss."

And Caled is grinning like an idiot.

"Jesus. I should take house points just for your expression."

He won't, of course.

Ravenclaw Table kirill_72 September 3 2005, 10:24:59 UTC

Kirill's decided that the big problem with having had sex...is having had sex. Somehow his hand just doesn't quite do it anymore. Well, it does, but it isn't as satisfying as it once was.

So, he needs to work on his 'hot and easy' list. For now, it's a simple process of evaluation. Later, he'll analyse the matter in greater depth. Probably dick in hand, after he's inputted the data into his book.

But now. Now was the time to scope everyone out.

Re: Ravenclaw Table moonyblues September 3 2005, 10:28:43 UTC

Remus has an apple and some milk. He forces himself to get some eggs, too.

He watches Kirill looking around as he takes a drink of his milk.

Remus looks around, too, unsure of what it is his friend is looking for.

Whatever it is, Remus doesn't see it.

Re: Ravenclaw Table kirill_72 September 3 2005, 10:54:35 UTC

Kirill stops his scoping to smile at his friend. "Hey." Soft voice. His outside the dorm voice. "Sorry about last night."

Re: Ravenclaw Table moonyblues September 3 2005, 10:56:13 UTC

Remus looks confused around his bite of eggs.

"Hmmph?"

He swallows.

"Sorry for what?"

He can't imagine. Kirill hadn't done anything wrong.

Head table for Staff ynez_castillo September 3 2005, 14:03:56 UTC

Fascinated by the school ritual, Ynez watches the Sorting closely. The hat seems to be semi-sentient and she wants a chance to examine it later. She wants to know more about these "houses," too. She hopes nobody will be offended by her questions.

The magic in the Hall gives her skin a slightly crawly feeling and makes her rub her arms. In a rustle of tight fabric and feathers, she turns to the staff member next to her and asks, "Is it like this every year? With the hat? What's the story about the hat?""

Re: Head table for Staff joe__dick September 3 2005, 15:45:47 UTC

Joe looks at her, his eyebrows raised. "Are you fucking cracked? Of course it's like this every year. Goddamned hat sits on the little idiots' heads and shouts out the house they go into. Used to belong to Gryffindor. Y'know, the Gryffindor. And it sings a fucking song."

Re: Head table for Staff regina_philange September 3 2005, 17:25:34 UTC

Phoebe takes a sip of orange juice - spiked with a bit of firewhisky to take the morning edge off - and sighs.

"It could really use some help with its songwriting, too. I've offered, but it never takes me up on it."

Re: Head table for Staff joe__dick September 3 2005, 17:29:23 UTC

Joe's not about to admit that he's also offered to help the hat write a better song, but he smirks and looks over at Phoebe.

"Fucking ungrateful hat."
