Ashelle lead the way into the Great hall and sat her new rag-tag clique down at the end of the Gryffindor table nearest the High Table. Not that she thought she couldn't handle the group, but she new that Teachers looking on usually had a calming effect on any student.
"Have a seat everyone, and don't mind the plates of food, they appear full and will disappear when empty." She knew most of them would know this and mostly said it for Daisy's benefit.
One everyone was seated Ashelle asked them all a group question. "Do any of you have Dream or goal for your life?" She wished to start a decent conversation. Also, she wanted to steer away from what they'd been talking about before, as it had clearly upset Miss Weasley.

"Uh... I do.." she had a small slight frown on her face.. "Well... it's my... Family.." She had a tear roll down her cheek and wanted her Twin to come into the Great hall.... "But.. uh... I dont really like to talk about it without.... My Brother..." She gave a reassuring smile as she whipped away the small, hopefully unnoticed tear.... "But Uh... I guess.... If I have no choice..." She had a small laugh... "Do I?" She wondered as she sat down..
Daisy had struggled somewhat to keep up with the strides of the much larger people. By the time she made it to the Feasting Hall, she was panting a little bit, but it did not put a damper on her good nature. As she sat down, her face wore it's usual grin. She removed the empty stick if her lollipop from her mouth and put it into her pocket, this time not replacing it as she knew she would be eating.
Daisy felt bad for Maddie. She never liked to see people sad and for some reason the Slytherin was crying an awful lot. The small girl sat in a few moments of awkward silence, filling up the time by loading her plate several inches high with food. She didn't wait to tuck into the meal with gusto, practically inhaling the pile of food on her plate.
"I want to grow up to be big and strong," Daisy said after she finished chewing and swallowing a particularly large bite. The statement really didn't say much, but the girl couldn't even comprehend being grown up at the moment. It seemed such an impossibility of someone as tiny and frail as she was growing up to live on his or her own.
Unceremoniously, she pulled a small satchel from the pocket with the lollipops in it, pulling from it a small vial of liquid. She poured it into her pumpkin juice and downed the contents quickly, then waited a moment for the glass to refill. Then, with similar disinterest, she replaced the vial and satchel in her pocket, not really regarding it as anything abnormal.
Geldy had tried incessantly to talk herself out of joining the group. It wasn't right to impose on a group that she had upset earlier. But with a new found confidence that she could and would change their outlook on her, she had strided to the fiesting hall.
When she arrived, she found the group sitting at the end of the Gryffindor table, close to the head table. She took a deep breath and proceeded on. Seeing Daisy and her heaping plate full of food she smiled. The girl was impossibly adorable. Geldy wanted to just pick her up and hug her as she did her small nieces back home. But, resisting the urge, she simply stood behind the little pixie and attempted a weak smile at Miss Rainier.
"Excuse me, may I sit with you?" She didn't want to be rejected once again, but she braced herself for it anyhow.
"Dream or goal in life?" Arc asked, seating himself between Daisy and Ashelle. "I live in the rpesent! Not the future! My goal in life right now is to see if I can manage to eat an entire chicken without making myself sick in the process. My dream right now is that my goal will actually be accomplished." he said, setting about in an earnest attempt to make his dream come true.
"Wuzzat?!" He demanded, voice slurred from a mouthful of chicken as he pointed a now greasy finger at the vial Daisy had just poured into her pumpkin juice.
"YES!" Chris shouted as he entered the Great Hall and adds, "Sorry I interrupted your fun, but can I join too?" Chris asked as he looked around the room trying to see any familiar faces when he notices Geldd and Madd sitting around the table. Not knowing if he was invited or not he simply took a seat and listened on to what the other students were saying.
"I mean Ashelle anyone can join right, because I am rather hungry, oh wait a minute i have something for you," Chris whispers, "orchideous." With that he handed a bunch of flowers to Ashelle hoping to get on her good side since Chris was strangely hungry, rather for food, company, friends, or even prehaps love.

Monica entered the feasting hall and looked around. Daisey wasnt here alot of the people she didnt know were here. She sat down at the Gryffindor table not sure of what was going on. She hadnt been a people person back at Bloor's and she wasnt one now. She just wanted to have a few good friends and that would be it.

.... Oh god... I can't do this here... Why did everyone show up... it's to.... hard to tell to more than one person... I can't say all this... She covered her tears and got up "Sorry... I got...go..gotta Go.." She started to walk away.... She didn't want to be all teary infront of her peers... Maybe Someone.... ch.... She stopped the name in her thoughts... was she falling for him... oh she didn't know... All she knew was she had to get outta there.. or atleast a few people down from where they were sitting... She sat down passed about 7 or 8 people and sat down with her face in her hands... Tears were falling rom the crevices inbetween her fingers and she couldn't stop it...
"Sit down, everybody! All are welcome!" Daisy exclaimed, looking around at all of the faces, some old, some new. In truth she didn't really have authority to say this, but she never liked to see anyone left out if it couldn't be avoided, and she figured this luncheon would be good for everyone.
"Especially you, big sister," Daisy said to Geldy with a smile. When Arc sat down beside her, she looked over and laughed at his attempts to gorge himself on chicken, wondering if she could match him in his appetite. Maybe, if she hadn't already eaten so much already. It would have to be a competition for another day.
"It's just my medicine," Daisy said, shrugging her shoulders. "Doctor says it's to help me get big and strong." She didn't really have much more to say on the subject, so she tucked into her food again, not really all that concerned with much of anything. She paused for a moment to giggle at the newcomer, and then to wave at Monica cheerfully. Then, she saw Maddie depart from the group, and she couldn't help but wonder what was wrong.
She stood up carefully so as not to disturb any plates, escused herself, and walked over to Maddie, who appeared to be upset.
"What's the matter?" she asked, her soft voice edged heavily with concern.
Forgetting Daisy for a moment as he noticed Madaline's tears, he picked up his staff and leasned back in his seat to start prodding her in the back with it as she tried to leave. "Hey hey hey! No tears here! this is a friendship lunch. A FRIENDSHIP lunch! So be happy, or I'll have to try and curse you into being happy."

She laughed off his comment.. "I just.. " She walked off to sit... and then looked up at daisy with an awkward *What* face with her tears rolling down her face and her mouth half open... "Im uh... Fine..."
She might say she was fine, but her tears clearly suggested otherwise. Daisy was at a complete loss though. She had never dealt with anyone crying before except her mom, and she had known what was wrong then. She couldn't help if she didn't know what was the matter.
Daisy knew lollipops didn't work, and if they didn't, then what did?
"Arc, you better not try and curse her into being happy. You'd probably curse all of her hair off, and I don't think that would help."

She laughed a bt to her speaking then turned to arc.. "Yeah... please don't... that wouldn't be half as bad As what I'd do to you afterwourds.." Her tears kept falling and she returned to her palms... "God... Why... everytime I get friends... they wanna know me more like... this.." She spoke to herself..
Geldy had just taken the seat on the other side of Daisy when Maddie got up. 'What could've happened?' Geldy felt instant concern for the Slytherin girl. She had become fond of her in an odd sort of way and didn't want to see her upset. But, the girl had her hands full enough with two of the youngins prodding her for an explanation. She saw Daisy be very careful so as not to cause Mad anymore tears but she also saw the love in her little sister's eyes. The sprite was full of so much love and caring it made Geldy proud to call her her own.
Deciding it best to let Mad come around when she would, Geldy set to the task of finding a select few pieces to eat. A slice of strawberry cheesecake seemed to suffice for now. Taking a small bite she smiled at everyone around the table.

"That's why we are considered friends Madd, we are concern and only want to know more about you," Chris said with much concern reachind down making sure to give her the lollipop the Hufflepuff was holding out and adds, "By the way I didn't catch your name too." Winking at her as he goes back to taking care of Madd making sure the tears will stop shedding.
With a hearty laugh he pointed to Arc and said, "I don't believe there is such a curse, I mean a curse to make you happy? I understand if it were sad but its ok, maybe you do know this and I want to know too. Now Madd please stop crying so that this lunch of friends will be much happier and not only that but you'll be happy I mean Geldd is here too."
