a young female walked into what would be seen as the small hall, it was rather pleasant to say the least. the small hall she had laid her eye's of curiosity onto to explore, was rather dim with a bright light leaning towards the end of the hall- which she could see from afar that it was a fire perfectly lit, and burning a blaze like it should. pictures were strong about the wall's as she could spy with her eye's, the people in the paintings were wizards, and witches who were her once making a difference on Hogwarts. this was a pleasure to walk the hall's of which many people have before her have walked down doing the same, admiring the glimmering golden frames that covered the edges of the painting's. it was spectacular sight to be able to behold..
she dilly dallied across the hall slowly taking in deep look's of the hall, of course this was nothing compared to what the great hall must be like but it was still nice to admire the small hall, that many were, and probably still are acquainted too. above the fire place on the ceiling rested at it grandness a wooden chandelier placing a light in the rather dim hall, her first impressions so far of the hall was relaxing, ignoring the strange people how would make there way into the hall ignoring it's shining beauty into a pair of door's that she could only assume lead to the great hall.
before heading into a mash of chaos which she would be referring to as people them self's she stood in the hall spacing out looking at the various painting, procrastinating on the social interactions that may, or may not have to take place when entering the great hall. this was all a bit overwhelming she would have to think, being in such a grand school which she had only ever had dream's about making it into..

Coming to Hogwarts had been a pleasant surprise to say the least. Her and her dad had always known that something was wrong with her, but hadn't known why until they got the letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. And to be honest, the school was beginning to blow her away. Siobhan had her nose stuck into a book like usual. There was so many things to do and see, and how had her mom stayed away from this life of wonder and magic? Why had her mom been so adamant about having her two children grow up in a muggle realm, like that of her father? She shook her head to clear it, she probably wouldn't ever know. She was about to look back into her book again, when something caught her eye. She realized that she was in a small hall of sorts. But that wasn't what had stunned her. it was the pictures. the pictures were moving She jumped in shock cursing at herself as she stumbled into someone behind her, and fell to the ground. She got up, brushed herself off, and "I'm so sorry about that, I wasn't looking where I was going, are you alright?"

Elizabeth Her eye's dazzled with amazement, though her time admiring the small beauty of the small hall had come to rather disruptive end.. she was lunged forward slightly by someone, or something stumbling upon her. she stood her grace standing up right, and not bothering to fumble down like a buffoon- as she was turning around to investigate the sudden disturbance, the thing had began to speak in a female voice. It pleaded it's cry of apology's as the stood up, the it- was a young girl roughly around the same ages as her possibly.
Elizabeth placed a grin on her face, starring at the young female stranger. "No need to apologize, I can only assume it was a accident, Were you also getting caught up in this small wondrous beauty?" she attempted to speak in the most polite tone she could force her self to sound like when interacting with another human being. Until she knew more about a person it's best just to treat them as a equal being, not to your exact standers but enough so they don't think of you as brat of sorts. She swiftly brushed her bangs back behind her ear's, still keeping up her charade of a friendly grin.

"I'm sorry," Siobhan babbled, she couldn't believe that she had tripped and stumbled into this girl, god, she was an idiot! "But," she leaned in closer, as her eyes flicked to and fro, back and forth from both sides of the walls where the pictures and their frames were held.
"The pictures are moving. They're moving, I swear! It's-It's just strange is what it is!" , her book long forgotten, her hands moving as she tries to explain what she is seeing to the girl. "Pictures aren't supposed to move! they're supposed to remain stationary, it's a glimpse of time, a picture instead of a movie, and-" the girl stopped as an idea came to her head. "Wizard pictures move," she stood in shock, before shaking her head back and forth. "Every time I think that maybe I understand magic, I really don't." She turned back to the girl. "I'm so sorry for running into you and behaving like an idiot, but where I come from, pictures don't move. Magic is a fairy tale, make believe. and then I receive a letter and here I am in this castle, at this school and well-it's a bit overwhelming don't you think?" She hoped she hadn't just made a fool of herself in front of a maybe new friend.

She couldn't help but be amused by this, which was actually surprising to say the least that she was being amused at all! this fellow stranger going on, and on babbling about the pictures on the wall how they moved- though the female had a point
Elizabeth made some effort to make a giggle of sorts to the stranger's constant entertainment they provided her as they frantically babbled. "Like I stated before it is perfectly fine there no need to apologize not a single bit..Though everyone has there own time to take adjustment to the wonders that magic has brought use. Expanding are mind's to think when we knew something was this, but truly can be made into thing's like this! if that make's any sense? I should apologize now i feel like rambling" she surprised her self being this calm, and void with human interaction most times she found it best just to ignore social interaction- but she guess that sometimes you need to grow as a person? which sounds silly to say the least.
She walked away from the female for a mere second or so to retrieve what they could only assume to be there book, handing it to them respectfully. "To be polite I guess I should introduce to myself, I'm Elizabeth Megido, First year Ravenclaw- And you might be?" she finished up her question/comment to the stranger while still holding out the book for them to take back.
She couldn't be more right about that, but it is fascinating what the wonders of magic has brought for this world, and this school."Pictures aren't supposed to move! they're supposed to remain stationary, it's a glimpse of time, a picture instead of a movie"

"Oh," Siobhan blushed, dipping her head apologetically, "Thank you," as she took her book back. The girl before her spoke almost like an adult but maybe that was just her personality. "You weren't rambling on, I mean not as much as I was," she looked down at her shoes, "Sometimes i just can't stop talking, even when i'm usually quiet."
She stood quiet for a moment. "Oh, I totally forgot to introduce myself didn't I?" She shook her head, chuckling. "This is so like me, being forgetful! The name's Siobhan Baird, I'm from Glasgow. I got sorted into Hufflepuff, though what the sorting hat was thinking I don't know. It just kept saying that I would have a good year ahead of me, and though i might not be searching for them, or seeking rather, friends would just come to me. Funny don't you think so?"
Seeing the girl, she thought maybe she was a quiet one, so she rambled on a bit more. "I mean, i think it's kinda funny, like we're sorted by our attributes right? But you have me, a hufflepuff who isn't really used to being friendly. And what if you have a ravenclaw who doesn't get riddles, but is smart enough to throw out sarcastic and funny comments? And like, i just think it's weird they divide us by houses, but maybe it's just a school thing." She looked over at the girl, "What do you think?"

She found this girl rather interesting, at first she just found her to be some random stranger but the claims she was stating in there conversation were actually quiet profound. "I find this a interesting topic, probably the one I've been most interested in since I've arrived here. i suspected simpletons running along to school, but for a hufflepuff might i add you strike up a good point, When i was sorted into my home i suspected i would be in slytherin but luck would have it i appeared to be wrong in this instances matter." she preferred not to ramble in matter's like these, but like she had mentioned early she brings up a good topic, and point.
"I usually don't socialize with people all this much, mostly i keep to my self but i happen to find this a fantastic point you have brought up, though you do seem very friendly might i say, i think hufflepuff will do you greatly as from what I've seen, and noticed in you seem shy, but openly friendly- maybe even a bit insecure? I apologize if i feel like i'm invading your privacy but i happen to just notice these things in people when chatting up a conversation just like this one." she grinned still quietly fascinated that she was able to hold together a conversation with another person for this long still.

"I didn't really know about the houses. My ma she died when I was young cuz she signed up for the war and well I got a letter on my eleventh birthday, both from my ma and this school and wel, here I am,", she chuckled awkwardly, "And I don't know, I feel out of all the attributes of the house, it's really only a strong one you know? Like obviously you must possess other attributes of other houses, but your true strength must be what the sorting hat focuses on. But the fact that you might have all these other attributes and yet some people in this school find others undesirable...well...it just urks me is all." She looked down at her feet.
"As for insecure, i suppose I am in a way. Didn't really have much of a habit of making friends at my other school. Most didn't care what I had to think. It was a rough crowd you know, there was a gang that controlled most of the neighborhood and people lived in fear. Say a thing or do a thing wrong and you were meat for the dogs," she chuckled, "But coming here, while there are some similarities, everything is so different and surprising at each turn. Like magic! Moving pictures that can talk and stuff! Random passage ways! Crazy Assignments. And weird almost thrilling hallways, like where i've found you! And I found you, and while you might not be as 'normal' as people might want you to be, you're just a little weird and it's cool. It's a good weird you know? I'm weird, you're weird, our personalities mesh. I feel like we'd be good friends, the kind that stick through thick and thin until the end of the line, you know what i'm saying?"
