Silas had gone back to fiddle with his stupid bowtie a few times and as a result, was running quite late for the time he told his friend they'd meet. He scowled at himself in the mirror--wearing the black pants and blazer his mother had packed with a crisp white collared shirt and a deep blue...

Silas thought for a moment and then shrugged. The other boy must have thought he was so dumb and it was all Silas could do not to lash out at him. "I don't know, I just headed back to the dorm after I was here. Well... I did stop at this courtyard," he remembered. "I'm not an idiot or anything,"...

Silas shook Zerrin's hand, but all he could think about was how alien this feeling was. Zerrin didn't know him very well yet, and surely he would change his mind on the "Best friends" thing once he did, Silas was sure of it. "Awesome," he echoed back confidently, as if he wasn't filled with...

Silas did not disagree with the other boy's remarks. It was the one thing he hadn't wanted to lose, which is why he should have just left it in the dorm when he went to the library. But he'd grown attached to it in the short time he'd had it and wanted to bring it with him. "I know," he assured...

Silas nodded back at his new friend. He knew somewhere in his mind that he should probably sit with his house and try to make friends, but hanging out with Zerrin seemed better. "Cool," he agreed. "I'll come and sit with you for lunch."

Silas went for the high five, amused. “Yeah, I think I saw some art supplies I can borrow from the Common Room, if you want to find some poster paper?" So far, he only had parchment, which was a far cry from what he usually used. He supposed that's what they would end up making the posters with...

"Thanks," Silas said gratefully when the other boy stood. This was the part where he didn't really want to fess up. How embarrassing, to lose his wand before classes even started. Surely, nobody else would have done that. "I've been looking for about ten minutes already, but I've lost... well...

Well, this was uncomfortable. Silas was almost sure he had last seen his wand when he was sitting in the same chair this boy was using now. He’d been playing with it mindlessly while reading the book about Quidditch. “If…. you don’t mind,” Silas said awkwardly. “I was sitting over here before...

“Two weeks,” he agreed. That should give him time to at least make some other acquaintances, if not a friend or two. And maybe he’d have time to explore the castle more, find an empty classroom or something to host a party in. Were there clubs here, he wondered? They could use a club meeting...

I replied ^_^ I started a thread here! I started it here!

Silas nearly ran back into the library, looking around wildly. How could he have lost his wand already?! It was only his second day in the castle! He'd done some reading about magical creatures and tried, no no avail, to learn what a Quaffle was, and a few minutes after he left, he realized that...

Silas didn’t know anyone yet, but it was fine. This would give him a reason to introduce himself. “I’ll start inviting the other Ravenclaw first years.” He should run into them sometime, as they all shared a dorm. “Where should we do it?”

"No, I want to," Silas promised, and he meant it. His hesitation had mostly been about his insecurities. But this was a new place, a fresh start. A new Silas. "Do you think people would come?"

A party? "A party?" he blurted out. Was that even allowed? Besides that, they were in completely different Houses, so would it be a Ravenclaw party or a Hufflepuff one? Would anyone even come? "Is that allowed?" he asked dumbly, and then immediately regretted it. Zerrin would think he was such a...

Silas had never wanted to be the center of attention, but having everyone here like him didn’t sound too bad. Maybe it was better than being invisible like he was now. “And game nights with real games,” he suggested. He’d seen some board games in the Ravenclaw common room last night. Was that...

Silas could feel himself lighting up a little when Zerrin mentioned electricity. "Right? There's a new game I want coming out next week and I won't even be able to play it until I go back home." He groaned--he'd almost turned down coming to the school because of the lack of electricity, but he...

Moved out? It was true. "I hadn't thought of it like that," he admitted. "We're basically on our own now. That's so... weird." Who would trust him not to stay up all night playing video games? Although--there were no video games here, as it had been explained to him. What a disappointment. All...

That fact was true, although in Silas’ experience you couldn’t always trust other people. Most of them had ulterior motives, and even the ones that didn’t, didn’t always stick around for long. “We should study together. I’m going to be so lost, and I can help you with the normal subjects like...

Silas started loading up a plate. He was probably getting too much food, as if his parents had starved him, but really he was just excited at the selection. “I’m sure we will,” Silas agreed, buttering a scone. “We can sit together for sure. I’m probably going to have a lot of questions, though.”...
