Rose walked into the Great Hall and looked around in amazement.
"My God this place is so awesome" she whispered to no one in particular.
She headed up to the Gryffindor table passing the Hufflepuff table on her way. She had been sorted into Gryffindor just like she thought she would. "After all" she thought, "everyone in my entire family had been in Gryffindor. Her Father George had been in Gryffindor as had all his brothers and sisters."
She looked around for someone to sit with, seeing no one she took a seat somewhere in the middle of the long wooden table and waited for dinner to start, wondering who else would be joining her for dinner and hoping to make some friends.

Sapphire saw someone sitting at the deserted Gryffindor table and thought it the perfect time to make a new friend... or enemy. She happily skipped over to the girl. "Can I sit here?" she asked, smiling.

Rose smiled up at the girl, happy that someone else was here for dinner. "Hello, I would love for you to join me" she said cheerily. "I am Rose Weasley, I just got here, and I'm in Gryffindor, just got sorted, though I guess you could have guessed that, I am at this table after all, are you in Gryffindor too then, cool wanna be friends?"
Rose said all of this so quickly that by the end she was out of breath. But that was Rose, she talked, and talked, and talked some more, all at a million miles an minute. She had a good heart though and really wanted to make friends here are Hogwarts.
"What do you think dinner will be?" she asked the girl

Sapphire shook her head a bit, trying to take up what the girl, Rose, had just said. "Nice to meet you, Rose," she smiled, "I'm Sapphire. Sapphire Snape. You can call me Saffy if you like. I know it seems pretty weird that the daughter of the cold-hearted Potions Master's in Gryffindor," she laughed. "Don't know what's for dinner," she added, dreamily. She gave a short sigh and rooted around in her bag for something. She eventually lifted up a big bag and set it on the table. "Help yourself," she offered.
The bag was jam-packed with sweets: ice mice, peppermint toads, sugar quills... "A bit unconventional at this time of the day, but it seems to work," she laughed.

"Oh wow sweets, yay" cheered Rose. "Thank you for letting me have one" she added taking a sugar quill and sucking on the end of it.
"So Severus Snape is your Dad then? My Dad talks about him sometimes. He cut of Dad's ear a long time ago. But Dad says that it was an accident and that Snape was a good guy. My Dad is George Weasley by the way. I should have mentioned that first, shouldn't I." laughed Rose
Have you meet anyone else yet? I haven't, your the first. What classes will you be taking next term?" she said pausing now and then to suck on her sugar quill.
"And I think this is a great time for lollies" Rose smiled

"Take as much as you like," Sapphire offered. "Just not too much. I don't want you getting ill," she added.
She later focused on the second part of the question - crikey, this girl could talk. "I'm sorry to hear about your Dad's ear. I was only a baby when it happened and my Dad died, so I never knew." Sapphire allowed herself to stray off on a tangent for a few moments. "I'm sure my Dad was a Gryffindor deep down. He certainly had the bravery, even if he believed in the stereotypes and allowed himself to follow his own: the miserable Slytherin he had become."
Sapphire shook her head slightly to rid her mind of the penetrating memories overcoming her, as she lifted out a squeaking sugar mouse. "I've not met many others either, only teachers, who seem really nice." She allowed herself to her stop for a moment and think of the classes she had opted for. "Er..." she hesitated, "Astronomy, Charms, Care of Magical Creatures and Herbology... I think," she added unsurely, but smiled all the same.
"Oh, and there's blood-flavoured Lollipops in there if you want them," she offered, indicating the overlarge bag, chocker-block with sweets and chocolates.

"Cool, we will have two classes together at least" smiled Rose, "herbology and charms. I'm also going to do Potions and transfiguration." she said as she pulled a fizzing wizzbee out of the fat sack of candy.
"Oh look here's dinner" Rose exclaimed, for indeed piles of food had just appeared on the table as if out of nowhere. "Yummy" she grinned as she took a big piece of beef and kidney pie and some mashed potato and started eating. "Have you been to your dorm yet? Maybe we are in the same room?" Rose asked Saffy through a mouthful of pie. "Can you pass the pumpkin juice please"

"Hmm, quite a selection here," exclaimed Saffy, picking up a chicken leg. She picked up a metal jug in her free hand, placing it on the table in front of Rose as she continued answering the rest of the question. "You talk an awful lot, don't you?" Saffy joked. "No, I've not had a chance to visit my dorm yet. I've been busy wandering around... bumping into teachers," she laughed. "Well, I am clumsy. I sometimes think I was born with two left feet."

Rose laughed and took the jug of pumpkin juice and poured some into her goblet. "I sure your not that clumsy" she told Saffy.
"We should go and check out the common room and Dorms after dinner is over" Rose suggested while continuing to munch on her pie and mash. "I can't wait to see the Gryffindor common room. Dad says that it is really cozy and comfortable."

Luna wandered dreamily into the Great Hall clutching a copy of the Quibbler to her chest. She was an unusual girl Luna, she had radius for ear rings and a neckless made of butterbeer corks.
She looked around the hall and smiled at some first year girls at the Gryffindor table and skipped over to the Ravenclaw table and sat down to eat.

"Hmm, I would have thought it would be cosy. Oh well, it's gonna be warm, anyway," she laughed again. She suddenly stopped, however, when she noticed a Ravenclaw girl wander past. "Oh, hello," she said sweetly.

Rose looked to where Saffy had turned her attention and saw the Ravenclaw girl passing by and smiled at her as she past. "I wonder who that is?" she said to Saffy "Do you know her?"

Saffy obviously misheard Rose's question, or so she pretended. "Genoa," she started, "isn't that in Italy?" Sapphire laughed, a feeble attempt at making a joke, but she didn't care if it didn't go down too well. "Can't say I do," she finished, trying to remember if she had seen the girl anywhere before.

Rose giggled into her pumpkin juice and then gave Saffy a funny look. "Italy?" she asked
Turning her attention back to the other girl who had sat down at the Ravenclaw table. "She has a funny necklace on and she is reading that magazine upside down" she giggled.

"Eh, there's no harm in being different. I write upside-down sometimes... or back-to-front when I don't want people seeing what I've written," Saffy admitted. "It's a bit old-fashioned, but it works for me."
