Sarah Jane headed down to get something to eat, wondering what the House Elves were going to make today. It was so odd to her that people made food for her, and she felt a little bad. If she had known Hermione Granger once had tried to set them free she probably would've done the same. Oh Sarah Jane, such a feminist

Mel is hurtling down from the Sorting Room, deliriously happy that Brice applied. Consequently, she avoids Sarah-Jane by mere inches.

'Sorry!' she apologises, a smile on her face.

[lovesthescarf]

Sarah Jane looked up as she was nearly run over, blinking a bit and put out a hand so she didn't get run over. "Quite.. quite alright. You alright?"

[totallyluminous]

'Yeah, yeah, sorry! You?' Mel says breathlessly. 'I'm really bouncy today, sorry again...'

[lovesthescarf]

"Oh I'm fine. A little startled but I'll live." Sarah said with a smile, "Can't fault anyone for being really bouncy. What's the occassion?"

Franky, a little bored, walked down the hall, thinking to himself. His train of thought immediately crashed when he saw somebody else walking down the hall.

"Oi, did you just say my name?"

[lovesthescarf]

Sarah blinked and looked around trying to figure out who was talking to her and then -

"What? Say.. no. I don't even know your name."

[battlefranky36]

Franky looked a little dissapointed. "Really? Are you sure? You haven't heard rumors about me?"

[lovesthescarf]

"Yeah.. quite sure. What's your name? Rumors? No, can't say I've heard any if I don't even know who you are, sir." Sarah said politely.

Remus was still getting used to being male again. Taking a break from the endless revisions of his paper and relievedly examining his newly-restored "meat and two veg", he too was headed to the Great Hall for something to eat.

"Oh, hello," he said affably, seeing Sarah Jane walking along ahead of him. "You're Sarah Jane, aren't you? That girl who gave me advice about - erm..." He cleared his throat and decided to start again. "I'm Professor Lupin. We met at your Sorting, but I was a woman then." Oh dear, that sounded rather odd, too.

[lovesthescarf]

Sarah Jane blinked, not realizing who it was until he introduced himself. Oh. Oh my. That was Professor Lupin? Wow. She had almost forgotten he was a guy and not really a woman.

"Oh! Professor Lupin.. yes, I'm Sarah Jane. Yeah.. the advice about the lack of knickers." she laughed a little. "Nice to meet you in your.. normal state."

[profmoony]

"It's nice to be back in my normal state," said Remus. Indeed, he had enjoyed being a woman, but he really did prefer the body he'd been born in - as unattractive as it was. "The undergarments aren't as exciting, though. How are you settling in here?"

[lovesthescarf]

Sarah gave a soft tsk'ing sound, shaking her head in disapproval. "Now see that's exactly where you're off. It's not that they're not as exciting, it's that you're wearing them. Men shouldn't wear knickers either. Only chafes and takes more time to get to the good stuff."

"Oh I'm getting on rather well actually. That Lily girl took me to get my hair done and get me new more modern clothes. Very nice if I do say so myself."

Marius had been rather shocked and very delighted to hear that, upon admission, a full meal plan was provided. He was famished, because he hadn't been able to afford food for the past few days, and he refused to borrow money, becuase he felt that debt was just another form of slavery

[lovesthescarf]

Sarah Jane turned around when she heard someone clear their throat. She smiled a bit, "Lost? Oh dear.. ha. Well, I'm not quite sure I'm the right person to lead you in the right direction. I get lost in this place all the time." she said a bit cheerfully.

"But perhaps if you tell me where it is you're going, I could point you in the right direction. I do know where some things are better then others." She wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention to what he was wearing, and Sarah Jane definitely did not giggle. Well, maybe on occassion. She wasn't staring either, she was just being polite.

[marius_p]

So far, nary a giggle, a measuring stare, or a fan flutter up to hide a smile. Marius relaxed somewhat, and smiled shyly. It was a nice smile, and also a rare one. He did not smile often in company; he was unnerved by crowds, and he suffered under the paranoid delusion that every pretty girl was going to laugh at how he looked (in actuality, he was rather handsome and he had no idea how flirting worked).

"Merci, Mademoiselle. I am looking for ze kitchens?"

[lovesthescarf]

"Ooh! The kitchens! Now that.. that I can definitely help you with. In fact, I was on my way there actually. Do you want to come with me? Since we're going to the same place, and all." Sarah Jane stuck out her hand with the same knowing smile.

"I'm Sarah Jane, very nice to meet you, sir."
