Ignatius grinned at Star's reaction, his wide smile showing the pride he had in his past achievements. "Oh really?" He said to her own story before taking the last swig of his pumpkin juice - well not for long, anyhow, as the cup instantly refilled itself as he wished it were not empty. "Childhood magic...man it was cool back then when you could do things and get away with it, nowadays my Mom just shouts that I need more control if I do one itty bitty thing by accident..."
The Slytherin set his spoon and goblet down as he turned to face the girl, "So then, were your parents a wizard and witch too?"
"Yah, but they both decided they wanted to live in a muggle community so I didn't really get as much "wizardy" experience before I came here." Star said with a smile. "And I can understand what you mean. If I ever accidently do something outdoors where others can see they go insane. I guess they are just really nervous about it." She sighed, feeling a bit homesick.
Star finished her sandwich with one last bite and took another gulp of Pumpkin juice. "Have you been making many friends so far?" She asked with pure curiosity in her voice.
Ignatius laughed at the mention of the muggle community. The Slytherin couldn't help but feel at least a tiny bit appeased that the girl who he called his friend came from a wizarding background. It made things less difficult, as he had been raised to believe if someone was born of muggles they'd best shut up about it.
"Yeah, my Dad's...well, I suppose it's no harm in saying he's a muggle-born, but he's still a wizard. He gets really angry when people bring up him being muggle-born though, seems to think it makes him less of a wizard." He sighed, "As for my Mom, well...all her family was wizards and witches, in fact, I don't think they ever married muggles. Ever." He didn't say this with an air of pride - more an air of consideration.
"And, well, you guys, I hope." Ignatius smiled in response to her question about friends.
TJ rushed back into the halls, looking flushed. He started to mutter under his breath. "Wow, those bathrooms are hardly told apart. How should I know that the girl's bathroom is on the left..." TJ looked towards Ignatius and Star and quickly smiled. "I used the bathroom. Sorry I took so long... I was delayed."
TJ's seat looked inviting, and he quickly hopped into it. "So, what did I miss?"
Nami cursed slightly under her breath as she ran into an uncoming student. It was a hard hit, but enough to have the girl scowering at her, and telling Nami to watch where she was going. The Hufflepuff was a very clumsy girl and she couldnt help it. Her chocolate eyes savoring the lights, the place was beautiful.
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, Sea Hobo smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street Handing tickets out for God Turning back she just laughs The boulevard is not that bad
Anyways on with more upcoming news, It was officially her second day, and her first was rather slow and boring. As Nami reached the hall she sighed...crowded rooms made her slight nervouse but this one wasnt to bad. Her eyes lingered on a group of students.
Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows, the tune she hums
But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can't hear me When I say softly, slowly
Nami had to inroduce herself, and make friends somehow, and this seemed like the time to do it. She was nervous, which wasnt uncommon. "Hello." she spoke up to the group. The Hufflepuff better not ramble on. But she figured for now, a hi would be all she could muster at the moment, untill another spoke.
Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen you had a busy day today

Carrot cake looked good. TJ took a bite of it and tasted it's spicy goodness. The warmth spread through his body with each bite, but the boy was instantly suspicious on the ingredients of the cake. "This tastes great, but might be different than I thought."
"Hello."
TJ spun around and saw a pretty Asian girl in Hufflepuff robes adressing the trio. He wasn't sure if she was just greeting them or had a reason to evict them from their seats. Either way, she looked like she was a nice girl. "Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Torrid, but back home I'm usually called TJ."
OOC: Just to ask, what's with the songs? Is there some hidden meaning behind them? It's cool, but I was just intrigued to ask.
Star smiled as TJ came back and grabbed some carrot cake.
Then she looked to the Asian girl who had come up and said 'Hello' to them. She could feel some small bubbles of being nervous rise in her stomach but she ignored it and introduced herself.
"I am Star. Nice to meet you." She said with a polite smile and a small wave of her hand, "Would you like to eat with us?" She decided to ask.
She felt braver when she had friends around that would stand up for her, and this girl seemed sweet enough that she wouldn't try and bring her down.
Ignatius felt a bit stupid after Star ignored his comment on his parents. Perhaps she was the kind of person who found the difference between muggle and wizard too controversial for her tastes - after all, the rumors that the Slytherin lived by said that Gryffindors generally did. Without saying anything else, he went back to his pumpkin juice as their Ravenclaw friend returned to the table in time to get his dessert.
Ignatius nodded to TJ as he took his seat, but the group was distracted by the greetings of another girl - this one with a Badger on her yellow and black badge. He wasn't surprised that a Hufflepuff had come to meet them, considering they were sitting at their table.
"Hey," the Slytherin said, giving the new arrival a smile, "and I'm Ignatius Fletcher. Feel free to join us, if you're not busy."
Nami watched as she stood there, it must of seem awkward, but she was a very awkward girl. She smiled warmly, as they replied. They seemed nice, just what she needed. "Oh nice to meet you all." Namie spoke trying to remember names. There was Torrid or T.J., Star, and then Ignatius, hopefully she could remeber all. "Mines Nami Killara"
It was hard meeting new people. Nami had once dedicated herself to her parents friends, it wasnt easy meeting kids her age where she use to live, infact there was hardly kids at all. "I would love to, it terribly hard meeting new people." she said warmly. Nami sat down.
OCC: Its just something I do when I first reply or start a thread. It has nothing to do with the character, mainly just a song Im listening to at the moment.=] Its my slightly unique trait. =p
BIC: Torrid smiled at the girl as she sat down. She seemed a little shy, but Torrid was exactly like that when he first met Star. The young teen itched his scalp and quickly started to return to his carrot cake, which might have been something different than all he knew.
"So guys, this is pretty cool. A guy from Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and girls from Hufflepuff and Gryffindor. Seems a bit odd, but pretty neat."
As Ainmire was enjoying his delicious meal of stewed cabbage and corn beef, with pumpkin juice serving as beverage, he couldn't help but notice that there was a group of students sitting nearby him that were talking intensively. He could not stand the fact that they were all giggling. He could not stand giggling, it was like the devil's hymn. Anyone who dared giggle near him would experience a painful shutting up. And it would happen slowly, to put emphasis on the "Shutting Up" part of it. His mother giggled alot, and he could not stand it. Why was it so repulsive to him? He had enjoyed Fiona's giggling when she was alive, but soon after she died, he hated everything that giggled. Seeing what giggling had done to him, his mother had stopped giggling now, only stifling a snorting laughter. Honestly, he preffered the giggling.
As he watched the students from across the table, he resisted the urge to curse them all into oblivion. Even though he could not purge this feeling, he still wondered about what the hell was making them laugh so hard. NO! He would not go over there. Gigglers were enemies in his eyes, and would remain so. So he just sat there patiently, eating his Irish lunch, enjoying it, definitely, and thinking what they were going to do next.
He had a bad feeling they would try and talk to him.
Star nodded in agreement with TJ. It was a odd situation to have them all come together so willingly and still be comfortable. Star didn't even see what the big deal was in the first place. They were all extremly nice, polite, and fun to be with so far.
Odd, she thought to herself. But it's a good odd...
Star didn't mean to have ignored Ignatius's comment on his parents. She was somewhat surprised that he was so willing to talk about something so deep with her. Star almost felt like she was unworthy to reply to it.
She gave Ignatius a smile and a blush, hoping that he hadn't taken it the wrong way. She definatly didn't want him to start disliking her when she had only just arrived. Star felt her stomach drop with guilt as she looked at Ignatius, wondering what he thought of her. Then she looked away for fear of blushing any longer.
Star noticed a boy watching them from across the table, and couldn't help but blush once again when she realized that in his eyes was a 'not-so-very-nice' look. He seemed almost angry with them, and Star couldn't look away. She was curious now, but not brave enough to see why he looked so upset.
IC: Seeing that the girl was looking at him from across the table, Ainmire strained to find out what house she was in. Sighing, found out that she was a Gryffindor. Lots of people here were Gryffindors. People seemed to think it the best house.
Ainmire could beg to differ.
Staring at the girl with icy eyes, unwelcoming, at the very least, he strained to smile, the result resembling a half smirk, half snarl. "Disgusting, why can't I smile?" he thought to himself, slightly embarrased at his inability to be cheerful. He wasn't missing out on much, though.
OCC: It's okay, we all have our bad days where we have to rush. ;D
T.J. scoffed when he looked at cold looking boy at the Ravenclaw table. T.J. absolutely hated people who were 'rebels', always staying cold and distant. The Ravenclaw boy always believed that it's okay to be shy, but never be cruelly cold when people were showing acts of kindness; this boy was off the hook.
What a freak, snarling at a girl he hasn't even talked to before. What kind of manners are that? TJ decided to speak up. "Hey buddy, watch who you're snarling at!" TJ looked at the icy looking stranger with such distaste that the delicious carrot cake he had just been eat tasted rancid.
For the first time at Firefox TJ felt disgusted.
OOC: Yeah, about my post, I just wanted to explain the TJ reeeealy hates arrogance and coldness, so he's kind of pissed. But anyways, I got nothing against you, Ainmire. ;D
"I suppose it's kind of difficult," said Ignatius, now finished his meal, "But once you get the hang of it you might end up with so many friends you don't know what to do with!" The Slytherin smiled to the Ravenclaw who had mentioned the funny little coincidence they'd ran into with a person from each house...and the gender situation that went along with it.
"Yeah, it is kinda strange..." Ignatius muttered, more to himself than to the group, "But that's how it turns out, eh? Eh? Oh nevermind..." Everyone at the table had apparently lost their attention spans to elsewhere. Star had been the first to drift away, which gave Ignatius a bit of a sinking feeling in his gut - perhaps she had grown so awkward at his statement about his parents that she didn't even want to look at him anymore. Then TJ as well turned to look.
At first Ignatius was wondering if his two new friends had both decided he was no longer interesting. Then the Ravenclaw randomly decided to say "Hey buddy watch who you're snarling at!" and Ignatius found himself terribly confused. "I'm not snarling at anyone!" He said defensively, but turned where TJ and Star had both looked to see a rather angry boy watching the group with a look of distaste.
"Oh..." Ignatius said, suddenly feeling stupid for thinking that all of the negativity was about him, "Oh ignore him, TJ."
