"Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy."
Seymour Benjamin Ryans "Efficiency is intelligent laziness."
space "Oh?" Benjamin said when Mira said that she wasn't afraid of Tanya either but wouldn't push his luck. "Dad always says though you don't know how lucky you are until you are at the end of your luck, though. Or maybe I shouldn't take advice of half mad Gryffindors. Honestly though the guy can be as scary as Mum, though. He's just less creepy Slytherin about it. It's less obvious with him than Mum, that's all."
He had noted that Mira didn't seem particularly impressed by his antidote on how he made the Slytherin team but his being on the team was a last minute desperation of the Slytherin house team. Mira was the one who started at the beginning of the year. Considering Benjamin didn't hate being on the team, he figured it was worth actually showing up to the regular try-outs on time.
When Timothy changed the topic to a secret way into the kitchens Benjamin laughed and said, "Probably some Hufflepuff. I mean their house is right across from the kitchens. But, it's old news I figured that out second month into last school year. It's a nice place to take a nap. The house elves don't bother you after you tell them the third or forth time you just are looking for a place to sleep and not food. Actually, I am trying to explain some Paraguayan traditional dishes to them so there's actually better food on the tables. I don't think they liked it when I told them English food sucks and they need to add some more variety. But now they're bending over backwards trying to figure it out. It's cute, though, I sort of feel bad about it."
He chuckled and gave a shrug, "Anyways, what about the kitchens, my friend? I didn't really picture you as the rule breaking kind..." He smirked and glanced up as the carriage stopped. "And, I guess we get to go to the sorting feast, then." He stood and stretched, "Mira, tell that dolor de una pelirroja you are around if she has a problem with me stop staring daggers at me all the time and go ahead and say something to me about it. I'm so over her arrogancia. Someone needs to knock her down a peg or two, and you should know by now I'd be more than happy to."
Shrugging he jumped out of the carriage and said, "See you lot later! I'll be the one sleeping at the Slytherin table and sitting in the back of all your classes, who probably will be late." He chuckled throwing up his hand and walking into the castle.
((OOC: Next post Slytherin table?))
Translations: (1) pain of a readhead (2) arrogance
Time: Start of the 2027-2028 School Year Place: Hogsmeade Platform with Timothy and Mira Wearing: His Uniform

~~~~~~~~~~~~~Iñigo Albion-Alexandré
~~~~~~~~~~~14|Fourth Year|Ravenclaw|Seer
"The best way to keep something bad from happening is to see it ahead of time..."
Iñigo listened to the girl's banter going between them, then Lexine calling him a dork. He smiled at her for a moment, giving the group a brief chuckle. "I'm the dork eh...hey, you keep going places with me so stop complaining," he said to her, smiling down at her for a brief second then looking back up at his friends. "You know what...I dare you to punch me out right now...I swear, I will drop you," he said, laughing at her. The thought of her punching him in the face actually made him laugh. One, because if it was enough force to make him flinch, he would drop her...and even if it didn't have enough force, he would act like it did and drop her...probably a lot more gently than he would've if it did though.
He listened as Alice had started to say something, but then was cut off by Jasper. Iñigo had an idea of what she was about to say, but he wasn't really too sure. But he figured it would have made things awkward and for that, he gave Jasper a thankful nod while no one was looking. He probably just saved him to be honest.
And that's when things started to get a little weird. When Jasper spoke to Valentina, he actually said...Did he just say more than one sentence? Interesting... he thought to himself, making sure not to express that thought at all. He was more surprised than anything. He probably was reading way into the situation, but Iñigo seriously had never really heard the boy say more than one sentence...well...that was a lie...maybe a few times, but it was rare.
He kept Lexine up in his arms during this time...but she was starting to get heavy for him. One could only hold the weight for so long, but he wasn't struggling either. He would have to put her down after a few minutes though...because he feared he actually would drop her. And he really didn't want to let that happen.
"and you can't see it if you refuse to face the possibility."

Lexine shook her head. "Am I like, the only one tired here? Merlin's beard..." She shook her head slightly realising that everyone seemed to have a lot more energy than she did at the time.
Poking Iñigo's nose gently Lexine nodded. "Yes, Iñigo, you are the dork." She confirmed smiling sleepily. She then made a face upon being told he'd drop her. "You drop me, you get a broken nose." She threatened, shaking her finger. She then set a hand on his shoulder before saying "In all seriousness though, put me down please? This is actually pretty uncomfortable." Lexine half-lied. Sure, it was a little uncomfortable being held bridal style, but Lexine was more concerned about the faces they were getting. Or the faces Lexine thought they were getting. She could've sworn that there were people looking at the funny, and Lexine really didn't want to be talked about. She heard Alice begin to say something about them and easily pieced together what she was most likely going to say and wished that Iñigo would put her down quickly. What was strange was that Valentina didn't seem to have a reaction to Iñigo holding Lexine.
She listened on as Jasper spoke more words than Lexine had ever actually heard him say to Valentina then she'd ever even heard him utter to Alice as well as Valetina talk about her summer. She still had her arm awkwardly twisted so her hand was sitting on Iñigo's shoulder hoping that he'd put her down quickly.

Oh, my dear, where have you been? So near, so far, so in-between... What have you heard? What have you seen? Oh, tell us, are you big or small? To try this one or try them all? It's such a long, long way to fall... How can you know this way not that? You choose the door, you choose the path! Perhaps you should be coming back- Another day, another day! And nothing is quite what it seems.

Vio had spent the train ride sharing a compartment with Eleazar. It was not exactly a fun time. He read, then fell asleep, and she had to shake him awake to let him know the train was pulling into the station. As soon as he seemed awake enough, she darted out of the compartment, through the corridor, and out and onto the platform of Hogsmeade Station. It was colder and darker than she'd realized, and she was glad for how thick her skirt was. She found a spot to stand, and waited, a polite smile already on her face. She might as well look approachable, right?
Oh, how will you find your way? No time for tears today! So many doors, how did you choose? So much to gain, so much to lose... So many things got in your way... No time today, no time today! Be careful not to lose your head; Remember what the Dormouse said! Did someone pull you by the hand? How many miles to Wonderland? Please tell us so we'll understand....
