Iliala was disappointed in herself. She'd made a New Years resolution to talk to people and besides stalking someone she hadn't really followed it. She was still sitting alone in the big yellow table. She had talked to a few people but they'd all turned her away and she was beginning to think Hogwarts was even worse than muggle schooling. Then again, here she just didn't have friends. There she was constantly bullied. She sighed and looked at her meal. It should be super delicious but she wasn't really in the mood.

The day before the kids from other schools had arrived and she'd been hopeful that she'd meet someone friendly but no one had come up to her yet. She never liked to start a conversation with someone new. If they started it then she was the happiest person ever but she wouldn't start it herself. That was why she'd made her New Years resolution to start conversations with people and make new friends. It was crazy to say this because of all the bullying, but she kind of missed muggle schooling. At least there she'd had some friends.

She started tapping. She wasn't really hungry but she didn't feel like leaving the happy, friendly hall so she just sat there tapping. She'd started tapping when she was around 8. Around the time when her parents began thinking she was a squib. They'd stopped caring about her. She was just a useless little child that used up their money. That was when they started sending her to muggle school. Her old tutor was terrible to her anyways but it was still a hard thing to adjust to and she was bullied brutally. That terrible time was when she'd started tapping. It had gotten better but she still did it. A lot.

Suddenly someone plopped down next to her. She looked over at them, slightly shocked. Someone's talking to me, she realized. She listened to their introduction. "I'm Iliala! Sun house?" After a bit of thinking she understood what Sunday meant. She considered it for a moment "No, I'm in Hufflepuff and our mascot is the badger not the sun.. I don't think there's any sun house" She thought about it and nodded to herself. "Is there a sun house at your school? That sounds like a cool house if there is. Does your school even have houses? What school do you even go to" The quiet depressed girl of a minute ago was gone and her true personality was now showing through. She grinned and started humming "Best Day of My Life". She looked over at Sunday and started singing it quietly "This is gonna be the best day of my life"

She nodded along, "yes, Sun house. The yellow one, with the Skunk mascot?" Sunday made a light note in her head of the girls name Iliala, it was very pretty. So she should remember it. But Theo had said she couldn't remember her own birthday once. So who knew. Safe to say, she was a little sad to find out that it wasn't a sun house, nor was the mascot a sun, or a skunk for that matter. Perhaps there was another school that had something like that.

After all, Skunks were adorable! And everything needed the sun to live, so it really would just be logical. "Hufflepuff, that's a fun word! I wonder what house I would be if I went here... how do you get placed? Do you choose?" Questions filled her head, something that had always been true for the young girl. Always filled with questions and curiosity. She was rather ignorant of things in the world, and they would be right. She didn't know a lot of things outside of the little bubble she was raised in with her Mom and Mama. But she was very willing to learn. A lot of people said she could get annoying fast. But Sunday knew she could wear them down eventually.

With how fast Iliala had started talking to her, answering her questions, she knew that she had made a friend. Pretty sure that was. She then shook her head at Iliala's question. "No we don't have houses," She paused trying to think of the best way to describe what Tenūsa was like. "We have pretty much one on one teaching with our 'teachers' our Dukun." She nodded at her own words. Yeah! That sounded pretty good! "I think it works really well, My Dukun is pretty cool. His name is Theo! Well he keeps saying I should call him Eliot because that's his last name, but Theo is more fun to say."

She was rambling a bit. And almost forgot to even answer the other question. "I go to Tenūsa," She answered. Then lightly turned her head to the side as the girl started to sing. Sunday had never head of such a song. "What's that your singing?" She liked the sound of it. 'best day of my life.' She wasn't sure if this was the best day. But pretty close! The best day might have been when she started Tenūsa. And finally got to meet people her own age. Iliala was probably her age to, probably.

Iliala seemed to have made a friend. First friend of the year that was. Sunday had not only started the conversation happily but she also seemed to not mind Iliala's random personality shift from the quiet girl at the table all alone to the ultra chatty one who she was talking with now.

"Sk-skunk!" She laughed. "I don't think anyone would make that a house mascot... though it is a cool animal" She liked all animals "How does that projectile smell work? Is there a way to copy it? Wouldn't that be cool! If I could make a skunk sprayer!" She grinned at the idea. She had a lot of ideas all bursting around in her head. She wanted to make a shooting spear gun like in Skyward, or a firework thing using sodium and water. No one really listened to her odd ideas though until she tried them out. That generally ended in disaster but... She needed to invent, to discover! And through trial and error she thought she could create incredible things!

"Hmm... you'd probably be in Hufflepuff with me! Hufflepuffs the house of the kind, Ravenclaws the house of the nerdy, Gryffindors the house of the stuck up people, and Slytherins the house of the weirdos" She was honestly all of those things except stuck up, so really she could have been in either of the other houses too. She liked Hufflepuff though. Kind of. She'd hoped more of the Hufflepuffs might talk to her though... "Nah, the sorting hat see's in you heart and says which you are! They say the sorting hats never wrong..."

"Huh... that's cool! How do you ever interact with others though? What if you don't like your duckhun?" These questions ran through her head so she barely noticed that Sunday was still talking. "You should call him what he wants you to call him... It's not nice to call someone something else..." She thought people's names were very important. You should never call someone something they don't want to be called.

"Tenwhosa?" She thought she'd heard of that before. One time when her tutor had taught her about the other schools. That had been years ago though. She hadn't learned about anything magical for years before she'd come to Hogwarts. Once they thought she was a squib they didn't really care what she knew. She'd never understood why they'd thought that. After all she was a metamorphmagus. She absentmindedly changed her hair color.

She realized Sunday had asked about the song she was singing. "Oh! This is a song called 'Best Day of My Life' by American Authors." This was the best day of this school year, at least so far. She was making a real friend! She started singing the lyrics "Whoa, I'm never gonna give it up. No, just don't wake me now"[/color][/size]
