The Ravenclaw Table 2021-2022
The blond curly haired first year's thumbs were in complete full fidgeting mode while she patiently waited her turn in line behind a few other new students. Allowing her eyes to drift around the massive hall typically meant for eating, she noticed her fifth year brother in grey and black robes while his tie was had been magically enchanted to match the colors of his house he had been sorted into many years ago. Her sister, was in similar colored clothing besides the fact she wore a skirt and not dress pants, yet the youngest of the Turner siblings was nervous as she hoped to be in one of their Houses. It was simply to at least know someone prior to beginning her new year at Hogwarts. She knew that either way, her parents would support and be proud of her no matter where she was to be placed. "And now... Turner, Violetta!" Her attention snapped to focus on the task at hand as she walked up onto the stage and she knew it was imperative not to trip and cause a scene. She sat on the warm oak stool before the magical and beaten up hat began to speak into her mind asking her questions about where she belonged. She preferred anywhere but Slytherin, and as the stars would have it written... "Ravenclaw!" The worn-out hat declared before she stood near her new table of housemates who would soon become like her family and confidantes while at the school. She saw her tie and main pieces change to a bright blue and gold coloring before seeing the Headmaster clear his throat. She sat down and saw her sister in second year was in fact a Ravenclaw and tears shone in her eyes before she quickly blinked them away. She eagerly ate her first meal and was thrilled to see her common room with the first years sorted with her.

The two girls finally noticed what was wrong! Who is having a discussion in French in Scotland? Unless, of course, all the people involved in the conversation are French. But no, you're not French. Your great grandmother is French, but you're not. You ansered with a smile.
- Je ne suis pas Française, mais mon arrière grand-mère l'est. I'm not French, but my great grandmother is.
The noise of the conversations starts to rise. Afterwards, it's a bit normal. Friends getting together, people meeting each other... Of course, it's all very noisy. You think that the two girls haven't given you their names yet. And also, the hair of the girl who, according to her sister, is called Lin, is getting darker. Is this due to the light? Maybe.
- Au fait, enchantée Lily. Nous c'est Lin et Sophie Evanvleck. By the way, nice to meet you Lily. We are Lin and Sophie Evanvleck.
- Eh bien, enchanté les filles! Well, nice to meet you girls!
As the plates are emptied, the volume of conversation becomes quite loud. It didn't shock you this much last year. Maybe the new promo is loud. Or maybe your hearing has developed. But there's no doubt about it. Lin's hair has really turned a dark red. That's odd. You're not dreaming. This colour is like the colour your hair gets when you get it wet and go out in the sun. So, when you're at the pool. But less than a minute ago, the first year's hair was brown.
- Did your hair just... You' re Metamorphomagus?
Too surprised to pay attention to the language spoken, you didn't immediately realise that you were speaking English. It came naturally to you, and that's kind of normal since it's your mother tongue. But you've never met a Metamorphomagus before. So that's not really what you're worried about.[/font]===

The Ravenclaw Table 2021-2022
Hunter swiftly walked towards his new house table, excited and yet overall nervous. He didn't want to be in the spotlight as much as other students may have, so he immediately took the closest open seat available. He noticed many other first-year students surrounding the table, unsure if now was the best time to make new friends, or would it be best to keep quiet till the ceremony was over. His eyes still avoided eye contact with other students, and he knew if it was to last that way he needed to find something else to distract himself or seem busy at the most. His ears perked a little as a few conversations began to start up again, Hunter hoped that the hall was going to stay a bit quiet for a little longer, but there wasn't much he could do to stop it. Suddenly his nose perked as well, as a rather unique smell from the table had reached him. A familiar scent that reminded him of his Grandmother's cooking, his favorite dish of all. As he searched for where the scent was, he noticed at the corner of his eye a rather large pumpkin pie. He immediately forgot about the loud chatter that was now beginning to rise throughout the hall and immediately reached for 3 slices of the pie. He stuffed himself full of the pie, enjoying every bite he could. It wasn't a healthy or good idea, but sweets were definetely a strong weak point of his.

Peering left then right along the table of blue-trimmed students, Eliphas couldn't quite ignore the out of place feeling which had risen up within him ever since the hat had sealed his fate. Though he had excelled with his SATs, he wasn't sure if intellect, or wit, or whatever else he'd heard so far to summarize Ravenclaw House, really defined him. Of course, he did acknowledge that there was still much he didn't even know about the Houses. But in that harrowing moment, such sensible thoughts held nary more than a squeak in his brain.
It wasn't until the individual beside him reached for a serving of a nearby meal that he realized just how hungry he was. His stomach grumbled something fierce, and he hastily remembered that he hadn't eaten since leaving King's Cross a great many hours earlier. Though the Sorting Ceremony was still ongoing, after all his surname was early in the list of names, it seemed as though that didn't stop the student body from indulging in the great feast before them.
Squashing down his timidity, Eliphas reached out and began to help himself. Chicken drumsticks, skin nice and crispy, a heaping mass of mashed potatoes, and a drizzle of gravy... He was quick to tuck in, though he allowed his gaze to shift back to the front of the room periodically to support his fellow First Years. The Sorting seemed fairly even, no one House receiving a markedly larger amount of newcomers than the rest. That intrigued him, to be honest, though he supposed in a way it made sense. They were all as varied as one another, no two individuals were the same. Why wouldn't there be a broad range of characteristics among them?
Another First Year settled down to his left, and Eliphas smiled their way. "Hi," he began, as the other student gathered their bearings, "I'm Eliphas. Crazy all this, isn't it?"
This evening was looking to be a long one, and as tired as he was - and as excited as he was to see their common room - Eli found himself settling in rather quickly and enjoying the general ambiance afforded to him at Ravenclaw Table...

Wednesday 1st September 2021 (Backdated)
Just when Lily was about to die of stress, the sorting hat put her out of her misery and shouted across the great hall: :
- Ravenclaw !
Lily sighed with relief and hurried to remove the old, patched hat from her head. She made her way through the crowd of first years waiting their turn to be dispersed to the four houses while all the seated students clapped politely. Once in front of the four long tables in the Great Hall, she hesitated briefly before moving to the one where the students were wearing blue and silver ties and sweaters.
Now she was sitting, it hit her. She was a Ravenclaw! The house she'd secretly dreamt to get into... Just like her mother! "She's gonna be so proud!", she thought, then decided she would send her on owl as soon as she could.
With her first name at the beginning of the alphabet, Lily was the second student of the evening to join the Slytherin table. She looked shyly at the students already seated at the table around her and was once again relieved to receive friendly smiles in return. Lily smiled too before turning her attention back to the Sorting ceremony which was far from being over. She listened to the names of her fellow first-year students and tried to memorise the faces that went with the names. After a few minutes, she thought to herself "I'll never remember all of those names..." and decided to concentrate on the Ravenclaw students only. She focused each time the Sorting Hat shouted the name of her house and looked at some of the first-year as they sat one by one at the Ravenclaw table next to her: Lin, Eliza, Jade, and finally Seren.
Then there were no more students standing in the Great Hall. Every one of them had joined their new house and the food appeared on the tables. Lily heard some of the students speaking in French, which made her smile, but she was too hungry to try and speak with them, even though she could have because her grandfather was born in France and he'd taught her to speak French since she was a little girl. Instead of joining a conversation, she just sat there enjoying the delicious food and watching her fellow Ravenclaw. On her right, some of the first years were talking about their favourite books while on her left, a group of older students were debating about the homework they had to do during the Summer break. At the end of the table, she saw a boy drawing a ghost on a sketchbook while eating. "Yes, Lily thought, I could definitely feel at home here."

Victoria was talking to her new friend at the Ravenclaw table. She really felt like she belonged to Ravenclaw.Victoria looked around with delight. What would his family say about his election to Ravenclaw? But she was happy with the building she was in. Victoria listened to a Qudditch talk by a group of bored children. Honestly, it had nothing to do with this game.
Dishes appeared on empty plates, she. Victoria felt that she was hungry at that moment. She filled her plate as much as she could. Already the girl next to Victora asked, "Hi, I'm Amy Delilah Right, what's your name?"
After Victoria finished her food in her mouth, she answered the girl with a smile. "Victoria Asminy Honest." The girl's eyes widened in surprise. "This is the first time I've heard of your middle name, what does it mean?" Victoria chuckled and replied. "Honestly, I don't know either."
The two girls continued to talk, smiling. Victoria saw Amy holding a camera while she was speaking. "Are you Muggle-born?" Amy "No, I'm a pureblood, I'm into Muggle business." He was really surprised. Purebloods like this were rare, and she was so happy to befriend one of them. Victoria shook her head, smiling.
The two parted loudly.
"1st GRADES, FOLLOW ME PLEASE"
Following the head of the building, Asminy was really excited for his first year. Who knows how many more impressive things she would see.

Delilah was fidgeting with their thumbs as almost everybody called so far was put in Slytherin. Delilah hoped they weren't put in Slytherin. "Magic, Delilah!" someone shouted from the front. Delilah skipped their way up the steps and sat on the stool. With anticipation, they thought Not Slytherin, anything but Slytherin. "RAVENCLAW" the sorting hat shouted from above their head. Yes! Mother and Father are going to be so proud! Delilahs's parents were muggles so they would be proud of them no matter what house they got into. Delilah skipped over to the Ravenclaw table. A bunch of the other Ravenclaws welcomed them. They noticed that their friend Rayla was across the table at the other end. I'm so hungry. As Delilah thought the food magically appeared. There was chicken and cookies and cakes and a whole bunch of other foods Delilah couldn't recognize. As the other kids were talking Delilah started eating in silence. Finally, they finished. Delilah walked over to the end of the table Rayla was sitting at and sat down next to Rayla. "Are you happy with the house you got?" Delilah asked. "Yes I'm super happy because I'm with you" Rayla replied with a grin and with that the sorting ceremony was over.

The boy was not a Ravenclaw but he had decided to come over to the table on his way over to the Hufflepuff table just going by saying hello to the Ravenclaws deciding to spread some cheer to them and to say hello. He wanted to say hello and decided to say so. Deciding he would try one day to do so he knows he probably doesn't belong over there but what would it hurt to say hello to the students at the table he figured so he decided he would attempt to say hello and meet some Ravenclaw "Hi, I am Clifford you can call me Cliff if you want I just thought I would come over and say hello to you Ravenclaw students on my way over to the Hufflepuff table. I know it might not be something that is typical might not be allowed but I thought I would give it a chance to try to say hello, to try to make some friends. Well see you around maybe.
He smiled at them seeing if anyone would acknowledge him at the table before he left to go on to go to the Hufflepuff table. Knowing what he had done may be considered risky or against the rules. Though if he gets in trouble he thinks it was worth it if he made a friend, wanting to make a splash at the school. Wanting to make friends with all the houses, not caring what house someone is from, he doesn't discriminate in any way he just sees anyone he makes friends with as being his friends.
He sticks around the table for a few moments in case one of the students had acknowledged him and wanted to speak to him, though he was hungry he was so eager to talk to some of the other students there. Giving them a smile while he was standing there. "I should get going to the other table soon but if any of you want to talk to me you can find me probably in the library often. I love to go to the library I love to read mostly it is one of my favorite pastimes to do."

Rayla was fiddling with her hair as people were being called up. Everyone so far was either a Slytherin or Gryffindor. She didn't want to be either. Her thoughts raced What if i'm never called? What if I get into Slytherin. Don't panic Rayla. "Gorthy, Rayla" Someone called from the front. Rayla slowly made her way up the steps and sat down. "Hmm, what to do with you." The hat said from above her head "RAVENCLAW" The hat called. Isn't Ravenclaw the house for the smart people. I've never thought of myself as smart Rayla's thoughts were racing as she walked over to the Ravenclaw table. She got a warm welcoming from the other Ravenclaws as she sat down. Rayla saw her friend Delilah sitting at the other end of the table sitting alone reading. I hope they're happy with this house Rayla thought. The food magically appeared out of nowhere. She started grabbing food as she heard gasps of awe. Rayla was still eating as Delilah walked to her end of the table "Are you happy with the house you got" Delilah asked "I'm super happy because we got it together" Rayla responded as Delilah started grinning. They both got up and started exiting the Great Hall.

Before introducing myself to my fellow Ravenclaws, I took a look to the other house tables, scanning how they invited their new students. While Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, the latter seeming very very happy, so I was pretty relieved that I wasn't sorted into Hufflepuff, since I am not really a happy person, at least not all the time, reacted pretty much the same as Ravenclaws, the Slytherins, while still greeting their new students friendly, did seem a bit cold, while doing so. To me they had that weird feeling to themselves, that kind of feeling producing a cold shiver creeping up your spine, when looking at them."Well, glad I wasn't sorted into the house of future bad guys." I though to myself, while looking back at the people at my table. They all seemed pretty nice, especially the new students sitting next to me, some of them already chattering in excitement with their new friends and the older students, while some of them, were just silently eating their food, that somehow magically popped up like five minutes ago. Even though I was a bit scared of introducing myself to them, since none of the new students seem interested in talking to me, not like the older ones who were staring at me, waiting for me to introduce myself, I still decided to do so. "Hey everyone, I'm Yelena, nice to meet you." I introduced myself to everyone and even though wasn't really satisfied with myself since that was like the most basic thing I could have said, I was still pretty happy about having done so, since many of the older students and also some of the new ones friendly introduced themselves to me as well.
