Open First Year Fun

[Francis Merriwick]

Francis had been ecstatic when him and Isaiah came up with the idea of a first year party. Just for their year, to hang out, and get to know each other. It was going to be epic. Legendary. Or that was what he hoped. He hoped people would actually show up. Him and his 'bro' had put the word out during class time, whenever they could, and Francis had even put up notices, specifying first years, as it would probably be complete chaos if literally anyone just showed up. It would just be awkward if like, seventh years showed up to something two first years had set up. He grinned as he imagined that scenario. At least that way, if anyone much older heard about this hangout, they would know who would be coming. France and Isaiah had even asked the house elves very kindly if they could procure some snacks for them, so there was both magical and muggle food and drinks, in case people preferred one over the other. They had placed some footballs to the side next to one of the snack tables, and a few discs, for some fun. There was a table with cups and plates and some blankets if anyone wanted to sit on the grass. Once everything seemed to be ready, Francis walked over to Isaiah. "Right, I think everything's done. Unless we're forgetting something," he added, but he doubted they had. If they did...ah, well. The most important thing was that they made many friends, and Francis was going to make sure of it.

Out of Character:

Open to any and all first years! Feel free to join the party. Please wait for Marijke to post with Isaiah first

[Isaiah Thompson]

Isaiah so far had met quite a couple of people, but not nearly as much as he wished he did. There was even still a big number of kids from his own year he didn't know by name. And if kids from his own year didn't even know him how were older kids ever going to notice? So, in an attempt to procrastinate from his schoolwork, even if they were only in week two, he and France had come up with the idea to host some sort of hangout. Nothing big, just a chill way to meet some more kids from their year. He had to admit his friend had done most of the organizing, himself just rocking up with a ball they could use to kick around and his guitar which was pretty much everything he needed to have a good time himself. Even if no one else would show up they'd still have plenty of things to have a fun afternoon so it didn't seem like there was a way they could lose in this situation. Sure, if no one showed up that'd mean that he'd have to find other ways to make more friends, become more popular, but he didn't see an issue with that. He'd be fine. "Nah bro, nice job!" He happily gave France a slap on the back before hanging back on one of the blankets. "Now we'll just have to see if anyone comes." Zay laughed, not too bothered by it all even if it would be nice if there'd be other kids around.
