The Gryffindor Table

A banner of red and gold hung overhead the long Gryffindor Table. Students from the house of Lion gather there to chat amongst friends and housemates.

After Gwen´s name was called she had sat down and grinned broadly when the hat placed her i the care of Lions. She sent her parents a quick smile before practically running to the gryffindor table. She sat down and waited for the next Lion to come.

James' face, he knew, was beaming. He albeit ran to the Gryffindor table and slid down next to Gwen, who he was happy to note, made Gryffindor too. James caught his brother's eye from further up the table and returned the nod Phil gave him.

He turned to Gwen. "We made it!" he cried, very happy to be in the house of Lion and to already know someone. James glanced up at the long staff table, wondering how his teachers were going to be this year.

Gwen nodded excitedly, "I know! This is so awesome! And I can´t wait to see our Commons. I saw Peeves in the hall earlier, before we set up a prank we should get an idea of where he normally is." she added the last bit in a whisper smiling.
"I´m so excited to be a lion!"

Vanessa was absolutely famished. After a long day of exploring the grounds and running into embarrassing situations, she couldn't wait to stuff herself with food.
When she entered the Great hall, she made a beeline to the Gryffindor table. As she sat down, she noticed several kids around her already waiting for dinner, and she sat down to join them. Hopefully, she could befriend the rest of her housemates.

Silver went and sat next to Vanessa in the Great Hall. She noticed that the other girl looked kind of tired and hungry so both sat in peace and just ate for a little while.

"So, Vanessa, how are you liking Hogwarts so far?" Silver asked when she finished her last bite. "What's your favorite class? I like Herbology."
