Caleb's smile never left his face when Khia replied. Though he blinked a few times when she said that she was sorted a couple of moments before he did. He sounded a bit of a hypocrite, because he had told her that maybe she had heard his name, when he didn't hear hers. He scratched the back of his head sheepishly at the thought.
"Actually, I did," he honestly replied when she asked him if he expected to be in another house. "I expected myself to be in Gryffindor, mainly be cause I wanted to be with my sister," he addressed the table of scarlet and gold. He planned on pointing his sister, but there were too many brunettes on the table, he wasn't sure which one was her. He winced as it dawned him that he couldn't even recognize his own sister's back.
He looked back at Khia just in time for the Headmaster to tell his speech . There were some changes in the staff--apparently, the current Headmaster had just been promoted. Timothy Steele. Caleb heard a couple of things about him from his sister. Thus there was a new deputy headmistress and a new head of Gryffindor. He silently hoped that she, Amata Harlowe, was nice.
And then he clapped his hands, and there were a bajillion food on the table! Like, the whole table! His eyes glinted happily as he took pieces of meat, a cream puff, a sausage--he couldn't even remember the rest! He gulped down the food and looked at Khia when she asked. He shook his head and chuckled. "Too many food for a kid who is too hungry. This is perfect!" Okay, maybe he had a sudden outburst because of the food, but hey, who doesn't love food?

spacePersephone sat alone at the Hufflepuff table, a small pout on the first year's face. She would be headed home for the holidays later that week, which she supposed she should look forward to, but... she just didn't. It was nice being at Hogwarts. It was nice being away from worrying about her grandfather, being around people who either didn't know or didn't care about her family history. Hufflepuffs, she had discovered, very much lived up to the promise of being nice. She wasn't really friends with many of them, she didn't think, but they were nice to her. Which, she had to say, was better than nothing. And it wasn't that she didn't want to see her father and her cousin, but... she didn't quite miss them as much as she'd thought she would. Well, mostly her dad. He was always so worried... it bothered her to see it. This was just... easier, to be here, and imagine that, without her around for him to worry about, he was happy and relaxed and maybe even enjoying himself. Ava, she missed a bit more, but he had friends, he didn't need his cousin wandering around after him like a lost puppy. She sighed lightly, taking a small bite of a potato she'd set on her plate. She felt a bit guilty for not wanting to go home... but that flat still didn't really feel like home, anyway.

spacePersephone looked up when Emily approached, offering the other girl a small smile. She shrugged lightly at the other girl's question, not really sure how to answer it without once again sounding like a completely horrible person. She tended to think she sounded like a horrible person most of the time, though. Probably because she was one, somewhere deep down. "Oh, I dunno. Just... thinking about going home for the holidays. It... it's going to be sort of weird, after being here for months," she mumbled. She still didn't quite know what Emily might or might not have heard about her family, but she wasn't about to spill her guts. If the other girl didn't know anything about the fact that her grandfather was an insane murdering blood purist, she wasn't going to tell her. She was pretty sure that the brunette's opinion of her would probably change pretty dramatically if she did find out at this point. Emily was one of the only two people she thought she might be able to say she was friends with; she didn't want to ruin that by telling her the truth. If she already knew, and liked her anyway, that was one thing, but, she'd never said anything about it, so Seph had no way of knowing which it was. She was choosing to err on the side of caution and say nothing. It meant being dishonest with her friend... but, she was a Tempest, after all. Weren't they all dishonest, anyway? "Uh, what about you? Looking forward to the holidays?" she asked, hoping to keep Emily from asking any uncomfortable questions. She might not mind the lying by omission, but, she didn't think she'd like the feeling of actually telling a lie to someone she liked. The very idea of it sat uneasily in her stomach. God, no wonder she wasn't in Slytherin. She'd have been horrible at it. Of course, she wasn't much better at being a Hufflepuff... but she could pretend.

spaceDorian approached the Hufflepuff table silently, eyes downcast, shoulders hunched. Tonight, the typically happy-go-lucky teen was anything but. He hadn't really felt like himself for the entire year, but he'd been slowly getting better. His brothers accepting his new condition, and Coffee barely even batting and eye at it, had done a lot to help him adjust. Miles and Jason had been helpful as well, however begrudgingly on the Aconite Alpha's part. Having to head out to the Forbidden Forest once a month, blatantly breaking school rules and wandering into the trees, was still going to take some getting used to. Having to drink a potion to keep himself in his right mind even more so. Though, none of that really compared to the actual transformation. Being a wolf was... odd. Freeing, but Dorian still wasn't quite sure he liked it. He was struggling to accept that part of himself, to accept the fact that he would be this way for the rest of his life. He'd been getting better, but tonight, all his negativity had come crashing back down. He had to go home tomorrow. And after that, sometime in the next couple of weeks before the next full moon, Jason was going to have to meet his parents. Jason was going to have to explain to his parents, a muggle couple, that their son, in addition to being a wizard, was now also a werewolf. A creature of myth... a monster. He was terrified, to be perfectly honest. What would they do, what would they say? He knew his parents loved him... but they didn't always understand. They tried, but... what if this was too much? The blue-haired boy sat down and laid his head down on the table, eyes on the professors at the head of the room, lips pulled into what had almost become a permanent frown. He didn't want to go home. He didn't want to face them. But, what other choice did he have? To run away? He couldn't. He had no where to go. And they would worry. At least if they knew... the worst thing they could do was to be so afraid of him that they kicked him out, disowned him or whatever it was parents did when they didn't want their children anymore. Which would hurt, but... at least they wouldn't worry about him then, right? They wouldn't care. It'd be better that way, at least for them. Him, not so much. But, he'd live... right?

spacePersephone entered the Great Hall with a small smile on her lips, taking a seat when she didn't spy Emily already seated. She would admit, she hadn't really made that many friends... but she knew she'd made at least one, and that was honestly better than she'd expected to do. She still hadn't spoken to the other girl about her family, and didn't have any plans to, but, really, she thought that maybe they were close enough now that the other girl wouldn't hold it against her if she found out. She still wasn't quite sure where she fit in, didn't know what to think about a lot of things, but she had one person who liked her. That was nice. It did a lot to improve her normally sour mood. She was even excited to go home. Christmas with her dad and Ava might not've been what she was use to, but it'd been family. For the first time, their tiny flat had felt like home. She was surprised to say she was actually looking forward to going back, to being with her family again... She'd missed them. A lot. It was nice to know she'd be home tomorrow.

What strikes fear in the heart of one man
Might not even move another
While a stranger gets your hand
You turn your back upon your brother We are on the highest towers
And the valleys at our feet
We are counting down the hours
Til our life and love will meet
Jessamine Cathlin Walsh ~ Halfblood Twin ~ Fifth Year ~ Hufflepuff Seeker ~ {feeling: perky} {thinking: ...} {with: Hufflepuffs} {at: Hufflepuff Table}
Jess was feeling rather upbeat, even if she'd had a god awful Quidditch season this year and Hufflepuff stood no chance in getting either cup, by her (admittedly poor) calculations. She was humming under her breath and perkily tapping a foot on the stones of the floor of the Great Hall, mostly because after tonight she'd be back home by tomorrow evening, and it would officially be summer. But also because... well, she had a scheme. Everyone thought Toby was the craftier one, and while his plans had higher success rates, Jess figured she was way better at hiding her plans. It turned out the library wasn't that bad after all, if you were looking for the right sort of books. Said plan required much work, an extra class, and a lot of studying. Which did not sound like her sort of thing, but if the payoff was worth it... Jess was hopeful, at the very least. And it was totally going to happen. It gave her something to really look forward to, and could anyone really deny her that? She waited oh so patiently for the festivities of the night to actually begin, surveying the housemates around her, most of whom seemed to be younger, with the smile of a benevolent empress looking upon her little henchlings. Had she really been that small once? Oh wait. She was still that small.
No cloud is so dark that the sun can't shine through.
I can feel the Earth move when you speak
If we fight through all the things we once knew
Everything could change for me and you
We could do what kings do We all have the power of angels
And we fell from the same star
The heart of the lion and the lips of a child
One part of you is dying and the other running wild

spaceDorian blinked when he realized he was being addressed, turning to glance at the boy who'd spoken to him. It took the blue-haired boy a moment to remember his housemate's name, which was sort of awful, since they'd been sharing a dorm for the past three years. He chalked it up to the fact that in spite of that, they'd never spoken, at least not in his memory, and that he wasn't exactly in his right state of mind tonight. After a long pause, he finally remembered the blond's name was Jasper. He also recalled that one of the other reasons they'd never spoken was that Dori rarely if ever saw Jasper away from one of their female housemates... Alice, right? Who was currently speaking to one of the first years not far from where they were sitting. Dori was a friendly guy, but the two of them had always struck him as sort of insular. He didn't know if they spent much time talking to anyone but each other. Normally, the other boy's attention would've been met with a friendly greeting, but not tonight. He shifted uncomfortably. "Uh, I... not really. But, I don't really want to talk about it," he muttered, not really wanting to lie but not knowing what else to say. It wasn't like he could tell Jasper about his condition. They might live in the same dorm, but they barely knew each other. Dori had barely even convinced himself to tell his best friend, no way was he telling a guy whose name he'd barely remembered. The Hufflepuff glanced away, seeking a distraction. He was sort of hoping that Miles would be by. The redhead had been just about the only thing that kept him from panicking about his new state, and his presence would've been incredibly comforting. But, so far, he was nowhere to be seen. Dorian's eyes settled on an older girl across the table and down a ways, who seemed incredibly happy. He felt a small tinge of jealousy; she was probably excited to be going home, right? He wished he shared the feeling. Most everyone was excited to be returning to their homes and to have a break from school... and he just wished he could go back downstairs and lock himself in his dorm. He almost wished that the girl would've been the one to notice his mood instead of Jasper. He didn't know her, of course, but he would greatly prefer her bubbly mood over the other third year's quiet show of concern.

spacePersephone blinked when she was very abruptly joined by one of the older students. She tried to think if she and the girl had ever spoken before, but she couldn't recall them ever having done so. The first year chalked the sudden conversation up to Hufflepuff friendliness, offering a small, nervous smile. "Ah, I don't know if excited is quite the correct word. Happy, certainly," she replied with a light shrug. "And, I'm Persephone Tempest, first year." It struck the blonde then that this was probably the last time she'd ever say she was a first year. Because after tonight, she wasn't a first year anymore. She would be a second year. She'd gone through her entire first year of school. It was over. One down, six to go. That thought struck her as incredibly odd.
spaceShe was drawn from her musings by the sudden appearance of Emily. The hug caught her off-guard; she wasn't used to hugging anyone but her dad and Ava, after all, and only when she greeted them or was saying goodbye. She rather awkwardly slid an arm around the other girl, patting her shoulder lightly, not really sure if that was how one responded to a hug from a friend or not. "Um, hi, Emily. I'll miss you, too! I, um... I mean, I don't quite know..." She was going to say she didn't quite know what would be done about the two of them getting together. Her father might not want her away from home, after all. He did worry an awful lot about what might happen to her when she was away from him. Hogwarts was the only exception. Or, she thought it was. But, maybe Emily could come over to her house? "... You know what, I'm sure we could think of something," she said firmly, nodding slightly. A bit of her breeding showed then, in the imperious way she held herself as she made the declaration. Emily was her friend, after all. She didn't want to go the entire Summer without seeing her friend. "I'll talk to my dad as soon as I get home, and write you to let you know what he says." It shouldn't be too hard to convince him to take her to meet Emily in London, right? Or maybe even to let the other girl sleep over a few nights? Something could be arranged.

Timothy stepped up to the podium after entering the Great Hall, knowing that the end of the year had come and actually sad to see the seventh years go. He'd seen all of them enter the school and grow during his tenure as a professor, and now they were leaving the school ready for the real world. Hopefully the real world would welcome the new graduates with open arms. He gave the hall a look and smiled, glad the year was over.
"Another year has come and gone, and we have all hopefully grown wiser for it. Of course along with the End of Term feast, we also have the duty of knowing the House Cup winner and the Quidditch Cup winners. The Quidditch Cup goes again to Gryffindor, and congratulations to the rest of the teams for their performances. In the House Cup race, fourth place goes to Hufflepuff with 210 points. Third place goes to Slytherin with a total of 350 points. Second place goes to Gryffindor with an impressive 475 points. And last but not least, Ravenclaw claims this year's House Cup with an astonishing 480 points. Congratulations go to Ravenclaw, and of course good luck next year for the rest of the houses." He clapped politely for the winners and waited for the hall to settle down before of course bringing the speech to an end. "As I am sure we are all ready for the summer to begin, let's enjoy the feast before we send you off in the morning for home." Timothy smiled and clapped, food suddenly appearing on the tables at the sound. He himself took a seat at the table, ready for a break himself.
