The Antechamber/Great Hall Entrance

[Squeeky Luff]

Lin Daiyu
Unsorted ** First Year ** Seer

"Honesty is being blunt,
being blunt is right.
Never back down from a fight,
let your courage and wisdom make you right.

Lin waited with the other first years at the boathouse, before she saw someone come up to them. Lin nodded at his introduction and followed the deputy headmaster to the antechamber.

When she arrived Lin just stared in awe, so this was where she would be sorted and finally find out what house she was in. This was so exciting! She hoped she was in a cool house, hopefully she wasn't in Slytherin, she had heard all sorts of bad things about the house, Gryffindors seemed like brutes not thinkers.....Hufflepuffs were......Hufflepuffs. Seriously. What even made a Hufflepuff? Loyalty?

Pfft...

Ravenclaw would be neat, but she had heard they were uptight so...really she didn't have a clue what house she could fit in. She could be brutally honest, so maybe Gryffindor...but she liked to read and such, so....hm...

I feel uneasy you know?
My inner thoughts are, "What house..."
I'm in the house of Unknown
I am a proud first year
My puppeteer says "Free to chat with. o:" Out of character.

"Head of Gryfindor and Deputy Headmaster, impressive titles. I hope I get to be in that house, Gryifindor and if not, hopefully Ravenclaw or Fufflepuff will be my secondary. " Jericho listened to Timothy Steele that introducing all the first years to Hogwarts. He told all the students about the four houses that each student will be sorted in and the points that each house revives or taken is by behavior and conduct of each of the four houses. "This might be an interesting first year." He thought about how good his year will be in Hogwarts and even how fun it will be.

Chase had seemed surprised that he had come out and talked about his grandmother so calmly. They had told him often that people in the wizarding world do not react well to Squibs but he hadn't been raised that way. So what if they came from magical families and didn't have magic? His great grandmother had been a very powerful Seer leading to the belief it was her doing that sucked the magic out of his grandmother. Whether that was true or not he didn't know but it made for a fun tale. Personally he did not care if someone had magic or not. Maybe he was just strange though. After all he didn't fear vampires, actually he found them interesting. Lior hadn't had the pleasure of meeting a werewolf but he was certain they couldn't be anymore dangerous then the vampires he was familiar with. Or at least he didn't think he had met one. All those years ago his father had been with many witches and wizards during the attack on that group. Could one have been there? He'd have to write his father about it and inquire. Tuning back in though Chase explained about her sister being a squib and winced lightly when she explained how the girl reacted to being a squib. Note to self, not everyone is as accepting as his family. More of her siblings were introduced and Lior perked up at the mention of her brother being the star beater of the English Quidditch team. That meant Chase was related to Riley Catlin somehow or at least good friends. It must have been cool to know someone famous in the game.

Before he could reply about loving, not liking or just being into, Quidditch a tall man came out and introduced himself. This was the Deputy Headmaster. Oh cripes was it time to go in? He wasn't ready for this! Taking a calming breath he followed the man snagging both Chase and Melody by the hand so as not to get seperated by the crowd of fellow first years. Once inside he explained what they were getting ready to do and a stone seemed to settle into his belly. This might be the last time the three of them were on the same level. Would they get sorted into the same house? Would they all be seperated? What if they didn't want anything to do with each other after this? Shaking his head lightly Lior watched as the man left them before letting out a breath he didn't know he had been holding. "Guess the show's about to start. Man my nerves are coming back." Lior smiled lightly as he spoke letting the girls' hands go and holding one of his own up. It shook lightly but it wasn't fear. He looked forward to seeing what happened next and though they might be in different houses he hoped things wouldn't change. Today had been wonderful and frankly he wanted to keep it that way. "To answer your question yes I'm into Quidditch. Dad and I would go sometimes when he could get away from the shop. Thankfully it isn't that busy. We're talking about going ot one next summer over break. I take it you're an English fan?" He inquired curious.

Neither here nor there: Waiting to get sorted
A vision or two: Countdown commence
Kept at bay: Nervous, excited
Keeping me grounded: Delphina, Chase, Melody
With a swish and flick: 10 1/2 inch Silver Lime containing an Ashwinder ash core. Smooth shaft with a bendy disposition.
A glimpse of the future: there we go I moved us for once XD

Jayden raised an eyebrow as the red head joined them and finally spoke up. She still didn't state her name so he hadn't a clue who she was.... still. But by now he was pretty sure he didn't give a rat's a** who she was. "Oi I know magic can be dangerous you nit wit, I'm not an idiot." He growled. "That's what makes it all the more fun." He grinned and turned his back on the redhead to look back up at the castle. He wasn't dumb. Magic could hurt, did hurt, but what would be the point of an adventure if there wasn't a little danger involved. When he'd said they probably wouldn't die if they got lost in the castle, he meant that the people within the castle were magical and would probably look for them. It wasn't worth his time to try and explain this to the snotty little girl though.


When Genevieve determined to answer the girl in just as obnoxious of a way, he grinned even wider. He liked this girl. She was hilarious. He liked how she turned the girl's bratty comment into an insult towards her. At her question to him, another chuckle left his lips. "Finding the Chamber of Secrets will be our first challenge eh?" He raised his eyebrows at her, almost challenging her to back down. "Scared yet?" The grin on his lips was that of an excited child who was probably going to get himself into a load of trouble.... the best kind of trouble though. From what he'd gathered about Gen so far, he'd have an accomplice too.


As the crowd of students began to move, following the deputy head master, Jayden made it his duty to stick near Gen. She was much to amusing to lose in a crowd of annoying first years. As they entered the antechamber, he looked up and all around him curiously. The deputy headmaster was explaining the houses and sorting and he snorted as the man walked away. "I agree by the way. I dunno how a stupid hat can determine the future of our next seven years. Its a hat for God's sake."

Rather forcefully Lior had dragged her through the crowd and a laugh had poured out of the young silver haired girl. This was turning out to be a grand adventure and almost perfect. It would be better if Orpheus could have been here but as a first year she could not have her eastern kingsnake present. He was instead at home with her father's serpent Maestro. Out of the boathouse they had raced after the Deputy Headmaster, a tall man who Melody would say was rather handsome. Not that she minded either or, at least they weren't following some creepy old man or something. Before she knew it they were stopped before the grand doors that lead into the Great Hall. Inside were all the other students and staff, inside they would discover their fate. Could there be anything more thrilling? A soft thrilled little giggle left her as the Deputy Headmaster left. "Oh I just cannot wait! I hope this goes well." Came the thrilled words just shy of a squeal. She hadn't been this excited since she and Lior had been chased out of a shop on Knockturned Alley.

In a hurried but precise manner Melody went about straightening her robes. If she was going to face hundreds of people she was going to look nice. The last thing she wanted was to shame her fathers. They were always poised, clean and perfect....at least to her they were. She was the first of their family to come back to Hogwarts and she didn't want to disappoint them. Turning to Lior after brushing her wavy hair out of her face she frowned lightly. "You are rumpled." Lior's look of confusion vanished quickly as Melody went about the same process with him. Though she may have seemed irritated the young da Vinici was gentle as she stragihtened his shirt and brushed some dirt from the long black robes. "I do not understand how you always managed to get your shirt untucked. At least Chase knows how to stay nice for a little while." Melody playfully scolded her long time friend as she stepped away from him. "Extreme unquie talent. Happy now?" Lior teased back as he corrected his shirt. Looking him over she nodded lightly. "Yes. We need a handsome boy to escort us in after all." Melody retorted a smile growing on her face as pink once again rose on Lior's face. At this rate she wouldn't be surprised if people started assuming they were siblings. They almost seemed like it.

Standing my ground: Outside the Great Hall
A calculated step: Time to do them proud
Sea of turmoil: Calm, playful
To trust or not to trust: Chase, Lior
Defending Me: 9" Ebony with a Griffin Hair core. It has a spiraled shaft and a springy disposition
Words of Wisdom: There we go she's finally up on her own XD

✖I can't seem to fight these F E E L I N G S
I'm caught in the middleof this.
And my ฬ ๏ ย ภ ๔ ร are not нεαℓιиģ
I just wanna know the truth!
W A N T ✖ T O ✖ K N O W the truth...



Chase laughed gleefully as Lior grabbed both her and Melody's hands and dragged them off after the deputy head master. In all honesty she had thought the deputy head master would be some creepy old bloke. That sounded like the right description for anyone with head master in their description, and yet this man was young and kind looking. Absolutely not what she would have pictured. She listened as he described the process and explained there being four houses. Her nerves were back in full blown power now. She felt jittery all over. Where would she be put?


She blinked as her attention was drawn away from her nerves with the topic of quidditch. She grinned and nodded her head. "English all the way. I could betray Ry like that and root for another team." She chuckled. She could just imagine Ry's face if she started rooting for the Irish team or something like that. He'd kill her! Well not really, but you know. "I wanna play beater like him. He's been teaching me lots of cool things for the past year or so in hopes I'll be able to get onto the team of whatever house I'm sorted into."


As Melody began straightening not only her robes, but Lior's too, Chase raised an eyebrow and giggled at the blush that rose to Lior's cheeks. She looked down at herself to make sure she was fine, and gave a sigh of relief when yes she hadn't managed to mess up her attire to much. She patted a small wrinkle into submission before turning her attention back to the other two. "Y'know you two act like you're siblings. You guys must have known each other for ever." They acted like her sister and brother acted sometimes, but even more so they reminded her of how Sage and Riley used to act. The two had been best friends forever and ever... at least as far as Chase was concerned. There wasn't a time Chase could remember when they weren't friends which meant they must have been friends forever. Since the dawn of time itself.

♫Ayla Stone♫

"Catch the breeze and the winter chills"

Looking sheepish, Ayla hurried into the corridor, glad to have made a lucky escape from her previous situation, although she was still annoyed and a little upset. Hopefully the sorting would go better....but even that thought made her feel a little nervous. There had been a lot of people heading towards the castle after all and her father her explained the sorting to her...she would have to put on a hat, in front of all of those people. Ayla had been told abot the houses Gryffindor Hufflepuff Ravenclaw and Slytherin, and she hadn't a clue which one she'd be put in. Gryffindors were supposed to be brave, Hufflepuffs loyal, Ravenclaws clever, and Slytherins ambitious. Although she had no clue which house was best or which one she'd fit into, she found she didn't care. As long as she fitted in okay, she should be fine right?

Arianna listened to the Professor. She started to feel giddy with excitement again. The sorting was about to start. Mom was in Gryffindor. I hope I am too. She thought to herself as she closed her eyes and crossed her fingers hoping she could follow in her mother's footsteps. Ari opened her eyes and glanced around subconsciously hoping no one was watching her.

The noise was growing in the antechamber with all the other first years visiting. Ari stood listening to conversations around her.

Nina followed as the crowd started to move towards the castle. Oh she was so excited! Her aunt was so totally right! And as they entered, she suddenly wondered what happened to her luggage? But then again, no one had theirs either... Oh she hoped it would get lost but also, she was just ever so excited! She stopped with the crowd and smiled still humming lightly as they waited to enter. There was another girl near her that was also crossing her fingers and looking excited. So Nina walked over. "Hiya! I'm Nina. What's your name? Are you excited? I'm so excited!" She said excitedly. She was almost singing, but just her voice alone was sort of melodic. She was just that way, it seemed.

Arianna was pulled from her eavesdropping by a bubbly blonde first year. Ari could see her radiating with excitement but her voice was almost serene. It was an interesting but pleasant combination.

"Hello, I'm Arianna Davenport. You can call me Ari for short. I'm beyond excited too!" She rambled quickly. It was obvious how excited the young red head was. She couldn't get her words out fast enough and she was bouncing slightly on her toes as if she was preparing to sprint into the Great Hall.

Ari was glad to finally have someone to talk to. Between the ride here and not a single person wanting to talk to her she had been a little nervous that she wasn't going to make any friends this year.

"What house do you think you'll be in?" Ari asked curiously. "I'm hoping for Gryffindor. That's the house my mom was in."

Nina smiled. "Yay! We can be excited together!" she said happily. She listened as she asked about houses... She hesitated only a moment. "My aunt told me a little about each house. But i'm not so sure. My aunt thinks i'll be good in Gryffindor or possibly hufflepuff. She was in Ravenclaw. My parents are muggles. So they weren't in any of the houses." She said with a shrug. Her aunt had also told her that there were some wizards that were against muggleborn. Which is what her aunt had said she was. And from the sounds of it, Ari was not a muggleborn too. Oh well! Friends are friends right!

Arianna noticed Nina's slight hesitation before she explained her answer. She's a muggle born. Maybe I should offer to explain a few things to her... Not that I know a whole lot more.

"Muggleborn? That's great. I'm a half-blood myself. My dad raised us as muggle children cuz he was worried we wouldn't all get powers." She chuckled a little. "Oh so did your Aunt tell you what each house represents then?"

Ari could truly care less about blood status. She knew not everyone thought that way but let's face it it's not your genetic make up that make you a good person.

Nina cocked her head to the side at the mention of half-blood. And listened as she explained. "Ah. Okay cool. She explained what they were and the basics about what they stand for. According to my aunt, the snobbish people are in Slytherin. The bookworms are in Ravenclaw. The happy people are in hufflepuff. And the adventurous are in Gryffindor. That's about all I know." She said shyly. unsure whether she was wrong or not, even if her aunt was in Ravenclaw.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Wendy began to chuckle when Genevieve said the word 'envy'. She seriously doubted Genevieve or anyone else had anything worth envying. She was an Avery technically, even if it was only a member of the branch family. She had almost everything she wanted at her disposal and she didn't care about silly fantasies or goofing around or exploring some castle. When Mira, the blonde from the boat spoke up trying to play both fields-first by saying not to let her statement bother them and then telling her that she had a point. Yet before much more could say the Deputy Headmaster appeared and escorted them to the castle and she followed him with a toss of her hair into the castle of Hogwarts and its antechamber and smiled half amused as Jayden and Genevive continued chatting happily.

When the first years were stopped in the antechamber she listened as the Deputy Headmaster, who so happened to be the Head of Gryffindor house, spoke a bit on the very basic concepts of the house system of Hogwarts. She wasn't impressed. After the speech ended she spotted Mira nearby and said, "I don't particularly care for people who try to make everyone happy by telling two different things to different people to suit their needs of being liked. It is sort of sad."

"Either agree on a side or don't bother saying anything," Wendy added, narrowing her blue eyes at the blonde. Maybe she judged Mira's actions more like something Cathaline League would do just because Mira did happen to have similar enough coloring to her Hufflepuff second cousin-they both had blonde hair of some sort and brown colored eyes. "I don't need someone to approve of my points or not and I could care less if what I said bothered mere strangers or not. I only spoke the truth."

You thought you were gonna throw it back in my face,
but tell me how do my leftovers taste!
