(So hey. I'ma post at the Gryffie tble, anybody's allowed to join in!)
I walked into the Great Hall, looked around, breathing in the heady scent of wood pannelling and tasty breakfast food, and then made ym way towards the Gryffindor table. I found my usual seat and sank into it, pulling a bowl of porridge towards me. I waited for Ylana and the other gang to turn up.

I walked through the large Oak doors and paused, craning my neck to see the gang over the sea of students, and finally saw Sam's tell-tale orange head. I hastened towards her and slid into the seat opposite her, grabbing some toast and a goblet of tea.
"Mornin', Sam. How're you today?"

Ryan scurried past the gryffindor table and glanced at the gryffindor gang, looking back at the empty hufflepuff table, he realised none were up yet. Ryan hesitated, then decided that he may as well jopin the gryffindors. He sat down next to Charlotte's sister and said "Hey mind if I join you?"
Glancing up he saw Ylana and froze... "Uhh Hey Ylana, how are you doing?" he asked, awkwardly scratching the back of his head.

Sam smiled at Ryan. "Hey. Not to be rude or anything, but what are you doing at our table?"

Ryan arched his eyebrows.. "Good morning to you too. I was going to wish you all good luck in the quidditch later, and.. " Ryan glanced at the empty table "The Hufflepuffs are all still in bed... they are very comfy, and we don't have quidditch later so have no reason to be up yet", he stood up feeling a little embarressed at how his inter-house relations had failed so bad "Well good luck later I guess"

Ylana glared at him. "There's no need to be so touchy, it was just a question. Merlin, that boy annoys me," she added under her breath to Sam, who smiled discreetly.

Ryan had turned to step away but heard Ylana respond, he paused and rolled his eyes... he didn't need to guess who'd just spoken.
He should have known Sam and Ylana were friendly, he remembered how they'd both acted on the express, he'd been shocked how different she was to Charlie, his fellow prefect in hufflepuff, and he remembered how Ylana had ignored Charlotte's congratulations on being head girl...
"Now I remember why there were riots last year" he muttered to himself and turned around to face Ylana and Sam, flushing with embarressment as more students entered the hall "Ok Ylana, no need to freak... I'm sorry I bothered"
He headed for his own table, hoping Charlie would drop by soon, so he'd not be sitting on his own. He made himself busy with a paper and breakfast, trying to blot out the snide remarks he could hear coming from the Gryffindor tables. Ryan smiled as he saw an old copy of the daily prophet with Zach Mellow proclaiming "We won last year and we'll win again! COME ON SLYTHERIN!". Maybe the gryffindors were just feeling the pressure.

I raised my eyebrows at him as he stalked away. "Huh," I muttered to Sam, who snorted. "He's a bit touchy today."

(Joining!)
I walked through the rows of tables and the reams of students until I came to the Hufflepuff table. I took a seat next to Ryan, and smiled at him. "Morning, Ryan. What's up?"

(Do you prefer Charlie or Charlotte? Because Charlie might get confused with Carlie)
Ryan grinned, "Hey Charlotte, Oh not that much... I just came back from the gryffindor table, there was no-one up here so I thought I'd say hey to your sister. Bad idea" Ryan laughed and moved over to make more space for Charlie "Are you two supposed to be identical, because you are nothing alike"

(Charlie, please. Carlie-Anne never comes on here, which is sad  She's really nice)I smiled and rolled my eyes. "Gryffindors. They can be so awful sometimes. And I don't know - Sam was nicer before she met Ylana, though that might just be the interhouse rivalry talking here." I replied.

(OK, I don't really know Carlie-Anne, but I'm sure she's lovely)
Ryan grinned "So Ylana is a bad influence on her? Well I'm not surprised really... she gets away with everything because she's so smart the teachers won't hear a bad word about her, I still can't believe they made her Headgirl, especially after last years riots" Ryan paused "Maybe that was a little harsh, I mean she is a gryffindor, and they're infamous for having hotheads." Ryan laughed "Yeah they don't seem particularly fond of us hufflepuffs, or maybe I just rub her up the wrong way"

"Anyone could rub her up the wrong way. I heard a rumour that she's some long-lost relative of Sirius Black's, and that her parents are working for the Death Eaters." I nodded at Ryan seriously. It wouldn't surprise me if the rumours were true, not at all.
