Before Sarah could reach the table that sat her new house, she was distracted by a loud voice call out the next person on the list, making her glance backwards. Her blue eyes found the figure of a boy - the boy she was talking to earlier. She stopped in her tracks, turning around to watch, wondering what house he was going to be put in, not caring how stupid she was probably looking to the others, thinking only of how nice it would be if she had a friend in her house. It seemed her luck was florishing that day, for no sooner had the hat settled upon his head then a shout of 'RAVENCLAW' echo from its parted folds. Sarah began to grin from ear to ear, continuing her journey to the table, picking an empty seat beside another young lad. As Alden took a seat beside her, she turned to him. "Well, looks like crazy equals smart in this place, seeing as we both got in. Congratulations, by the way" she replied, before movement out of the corner of her eye made her turn towards the boy sitting to her right, who had just waved. "Oh, hey" She said, giving him a friendly smile, before holding out her hand in greeting "I'm Sarah Watt - pleasure to meet you"

aileen glanced at the sorting hat as it sorted one studen tafter the other. Lauren Mallin hastily clambered up, and was sorted into Hufflepuff, then Hayley and Harold Mayfaye (Slytherins), then Kim Morningson, a Ravenclaw. "AILEEN MURRAY," the voice soon boomed, and she half nervously, half excitedly, made her way throigh the mass of people, either rooting for their house or chattering about what they'd be sorted into. "You're a spirited one, you know," the hat whispered into her ear, a smile forming at the tattered brim. "Brave and smart, though a stubborn lass at times." The sorting hat spoke casually, and Aileen briefly wondered about how living as a hat and sorting children must be. "I'd say you're curious too," it chuckled, and she felt slihtly surprised- apparently the hat could listen to thoughts, too... "Well, it better be GRYFFINDOR!" The hat shouted, a wide smile forming at the seams as it joyfully proclaimed yet another student. With a small smile, Aileen hopped off the chair and made her way towards the Gryffindor table, greeted with cheers. "Hey," she waved her hand slightly as she claimed a spot next to Andromeda and James.

Alden grinned widely. "If we're crazy, at least we're crazy together," he laughed, then turned towards the new mystery boy. The young lad seemed to be about the same age as both of them, and seemed slightly lost like all first years.

"I'm Alden," he held a hand out for the young boy to shake. "What's your name?" He leaned his chair back slightly while giving a warm smile. The preteen knew that he felt lost without welcoming people- so he would try his best to make this fellow first year feel as welcome as possible.

the young girl placed her head on her hands as she sat down at her table. she'd been recently sorted into gryffindor (which she'd been very happy about), and hoped that her childhood friend, hunter, would be sorted into the same house as her. genevieve waited patiently as the sorting hat called up name after name as the floating chandeliers lit up the beautiful starry night sky. it'd always been her dream to go to hogwarts- a school full of magic, fancy that! she'd been voluntarily reading up on the ancient school ever since she'd heard about it- reading was one of her hobbies, and genevieve could probably devour a book in less than a week anyways.

xxxxxxxxHe was a bit surprised that he'd been noticed, but he supposed that was to be expected. "B-Bennett." Tim stuttered out, "Timothy Bennett." The boy grasped the extended hands in the order they were presented, shaking them firmly. A family trait, it seemed, as his father and father's father and fathers before even him all had the same hand shake. It tended to make people uncomfortably, even Tim himself, though he wouldn't admit it. "W-welcome to Ravenclaw, I guess." Small talk was never the young Bennett's strong suit, and it was becoming slowly more obvious. His gaze evaded their eyes in uncertainty. "Did... Did you expect to be in Ravenclaw?" He asked the duo, curious as to see if anyone had really expected the house they were filed into. Tim hadn't read many of his schoolbooks on the way there, preferring to look out the train window. Of course, the consequence of that was not really knowing the houses well enough.

"welcome to ravenclaw," the preteen smiled back. he noticed that tim seemed to be a more introverted boy, unlike sarah, but he was fine with that. "no, not really," he said, shaking his head slightly. "thought i didn't have enough smarts for it."

Sarah was slightly surprised that a boy as nervous as this could posses such a firm grip, but she managed to expel that thought from her features, instead maintaining her previous smile. "Thanks Timothy" She began, her hand returning to its original position on the table "Did I expect it?" She repeated, glancing at Alden, "Truthfully no. I actually didn't think I would fit into any house actually, after reading the history. Didn't think I had the brains"

xxxxxxxxTim chose his words carefully. "I can't say I expected to be in Ravenclaw, of all houses. Kinda felt like I leaned a bit more towards Hufflepuff." He spoke as if he knew what he was talking about, but, in fact, the boy had little to no clue about the characteristics of the houses, save for the basics. Ravenclaw; Intelligent. Hufflepuff; Loyal. Gryfindor; Brave. Slytherin; Sly. He had them categorized by simple words in his head. He believed himself loyal, at least to those he was close to. Tim tried to hide that he hadn't read any of his books - he'd most likely try to stay up and read them later on. In his old school, he was more on top of things, and had relatively high grades in all classes (save for math). The transition between schools made him nervous, and the anxiety made him unable to even begin to think about reading. Still, he couldn't get over the simplest of facts in this situation. Magic is real. This is the mantra he had repeated in his head for the entire train ride to Hogwarts.

alden listened to the young boy. he seemed particularly nervous, even more nervous than most of them. perhaps tim was a muggle, who they had discovered magic within. "are you from here, tim?" the preteen asked politely, tilting his head as he leaned forward in his chair.

@Slytherin Table with/OPEN

Blake waved nervously at her siblings as her whole body shook. Her brother wiggled his eyebrows as he patted his hand on the open seat next to him showing he had saved her a spot at the Slytherin Table. Some girls next to him giggled but he didn't seem to notice. Blake had always know her brother was on the more attractive side, handsome and an amazing Quittich player. Blake's sister placed her book down as she glared at the girls because they were probably were inturupting her good book. Blake still was surprised she wasn't placed in Ravenclaw. Then her sister turned to flick her younger brother in the head as she whispered in his ear. Blake bit her lip knowing what she was probably saying. "She might not be in Slytherin dimwit. If she isn't you might make her feel bad!" Blake imagined her sister say as she sighed. She hoped she might be able to sit in that seat next to her siblings. "BLAKE SHADE!" The hat yelled causing Blake to jump in surprise. She gave a final look to her siblings as she saw her brother give her a thumbs up and her sister gave her an encouraging smile. Then the Hat was placed Apon her head and Blake closed her eyes blocking out all distractions. " Hmmm. Blake Shade you're quiet the girl, a little bit of each house in you. You would stand up for the weak anyday-" Blake gave a low growl for she could see where this was going."That could result in Gryffin-" NO. Blake thought loudly, almost so strong she thought she might of said it out loud. The hat chuckled as if her future was a joke. Oh how she dreaded this day. "I'm just teasing with you, your wishing so much to be a Slytherin you've completely forgot about every other house's potential. You could excel in any of them really. You're loyal to your friends and all that are close to your heart no matter how much you think you aren't kind it simply isn't true. You're brave too, leaping before you even look like you are now. Are you sure you want to be a Slytherin?" Blake nodded feriously as the hat sighed. "You're quite something Blake Shade, quite something....." Blake opened her eyes as the Hat yelled "SLYTHERIN!" Blake leaped of the stool as she almost skipped to the Slythering table. She plopped herself into the seat next to her brother as she gleamed. She couldn't stop smiling.

@Hufflepuff Table with/Evie

Hunter hummed to himself as he looked around the room hoping to spot Genevieve at the Gryffindor table. He hadn't been favoring any house until Evie had been placed. All he wanted to do was to run to the Gryffindor table, pick his childhood friend up and spin her in circles just laughing like they did before he had to spent his summer in the Muggle world with his father. His mother wanted him to learn about his heritage in the muggle world for he had lived in the wizard world all of his life but he had missed her. Hunter stepped up as the hat yelled "HUNTER MOONCREST!" His sat comfortably with his back strait as the hat was slowly being lowered on his head. "HUFFLEPUFF!" It screeched before it barely even touched his head. Hunter slowly walked down the stairs to his table. He looked for Evie so he could sit at the opposite end of her because the Hufflepuff and Gryffindor table's were next to each other. Hunter gasped as he spotted her long brown hair. He sat down as he tapped her shoulder. She was looked up at the ceiling, what a dreamer that girl. Hunter smiled as he remembered all there memories. He hoped she hadn't forgotten about him over the summer or that their relationship had been broken because they haven't seen each other all summer. "Hey Evie, I missed you."

[spooky,]

genevieve sprang up from her seat to rush over at the sound of hunter's voice at a table, almost tackling her best friend. "Hunter, I missed you too!" but she let go quickly, though still wearing a huge grin. "where have you been, you dolt?!" she joked, giving a small elbow shove. "summer was boring without you..."

Swifteekl watched, fingers tapping a beat on the table as the last couple of people were being sorted into their houses. She remained stoically silent, even when others were sorted into her house. Her lip twitched as she became increasingly uneasy in the crowd, she couldn't wait until she could go see Maka again. Shifting her shoulders, she moved her long, draping cloak so it wasn't falling down her arms. Brushing her black hair back, her eyes followed the next Slytherin girl that made her way down from the stool, grinning. She glanced back up as she seated herself across from were Swifteekl was sitting, waiting for the next name to be called. "Congratulations, Blake." She commented coolly, glancing back over at the girl, tilting her head. "My name is Swifteekl." She confirmed her name, in case Blake hadn't caught it while she was being sorted - with all the people, it wouldn't be a surprise. Looking back ahead, she watched as a blonde boy was sorted into Hufflepuff. Pulling out her wand, she spun it absently, the slender length of wood expertly manipulated between her slim fingers as she kept an eye out.
