Arin couldn't believe how the time had flown since she arrived at Firefox for the first time. Before leaving Dublin, people often told her that the beautiful weather of Spain would bring color to her cheeks and raise her spirits. After all, anything had to be better than a place where the sun was only out for twenty minutes a day, if that. However, if anything, Firefox had done the opposite. It was mostly too sunny for her, so instead of studying outside by the lake she remained in the library.
Another thing that she still hadn't gotten used to was the food. Breakfast was fine, toast and eggs were perfectly acceptable, but lunch and dinner was disastrous. Nothing suited her taste, resulting in most of her food just getting pushed around the plate before being discarded.
On this particular day, she had settled upon trying a noodle concoction of some kind and then pushed her way through the lunchtime crowds to find a seat along the wall. Picking up her fork, she twirled a couple of noodles around it and then gently placed it back down, devoting her attention to her Transfiguration book instead.

Ashelle had noticed the odd way kids had been sitting recently. She'd have had to be blind not to. However when a Hufflepuff who seemed to have no interest in the food she'd gotten from the Slytherin table walked around with it and sat at the Gryffindor table, even Ashelle's usually perfect concentration was broken.
"Hi there," she said to the girl across from her. She seemed to be Irish like herself, "couldn't help noticing you seem unaware we have a kitchen of House Elves below this Feasting Hall. If you ring the bell on each of the house tables and speak aloud what you'd like to have, they will make it for you and send it up."
She smiled sincerely, "Firefox isn't your average school. You are welcome to sit with me anytime, of course, but just so you know, this is the Gryffindor table." Ashelle looked around and retrieved the little silver and glass handled bell with the red accents and set it before her new acquaintance.
"You look really hungry, why not custom order something? It'll only take a few moments."
