The hat hangs from the finger tips of the headmistress just swaying in the imaginative breeze in the castle. The first name was called and he smiled as he was placed on her head. The voice rings a bit within Matties mind. Her head shifting slightly as the hat begins to speak to her.
Ahh. Adamson. Yes... Confusing bunch! he exclaims. Most of them slytherin, very determined and cunning. One a gryffindor, brave at heart, But you little Adamson....Where shall we place you for the next several years....

Morgana watched as Headmistress McGonagall called the first name. She stifled a yawn and let her eyes roam to the small girl that apparently was Matilda Adamson. Her gaze moved back and forth across the crowd and then once again to the stool. Despite the potion, her head was fuzzy. at least the headache was gone. Just the pressure remained. She rested her head on her hand and fought to keep her eyes open. She shifted and looked at the other professors at the table, stifling another yawn as the girl climbed onto the stool.
Morgana liked to make bets in her head as to what student would be sorted where. She entertained herself doing so to keep her head from drifting off to sleep.

Mattie squeals out loud as the voice rings out in her head. She didn't realize at first that no one else heard the voice. "Um well...uh..?" she was babbling over her words as she gripped the stool beneath her.
She really wanted to be sorted for her love of animals and nature but then she also wanted to be close to her dad, but then maybe not? She really didn't know what to say. Her eyes focused on Morticia and the purple eyed kitten seemed to meow out to her.
She smiled at the kitten and chewed on her lip.

You Dont seem the type to be mean and cunning and ruthless, little Adamson- though brave and very smart. Kind hearted...A love of creatures...
The hat shifts about a little looking over the crowd and the tables, almost moving to look back at the Defensive Teacher sitting behind. He seems to grin at the man before shifting back out to the others.
Right...Right then. You little Adamson shall be your own person and not follow those of your family..... HUFFLEPUFF! the hat shouts.
The hufflepuff table with begin to cheer, clapping loudly for the newest member of their house.

Jillian clapped herself, hoping that the girl she'd met once would be happy with the choice. She was one of the few people at the Ravenclaw table to be clapping, which quickly caused her to look embarrassed and stop. Nervously she sinks in her seat a little and looks back to the front of the hall.

Mattie swears she might come unglued in her seat waiting and listening as the hat spoke and moved and thought outloud. Her heart seemed to stop beating as she held her breathe and then it would pound loudly in her ears. She closed her eyes tightly not sure where she would go.
When the hat said she would be her own person she visibly smiled, she wanted nothing more then herself. But why not follow those of her family? It was quickly dismissed as he announced her house and she opened her eyes wide to the table on the far right of the room. She bounced from the chair and scooped up Morticia happy and excited as everyone at the table applauded her.
She looked back to her Dad and then headed off down to the Hufflepuffs and finding a seat among all the students.

Dristan noticed several more students arriving as the sorting ceremony began. He glanced at Minvera and gave her a respectful nod when she had spoken to him briefly. She was right this was going to be an interesting year.
Another Potter plus Mattie and then another caught his eye. She was in the first years and the scar over the little girl's eye caused him him for a moment to touch his scar on the left side of his face.
Then Mattie was called to be sorted. His eyes watching his daughter and he gave a reassuring smile to his daughter as the sorting hat was placed on her head.
He heard what the sorting hat had said and even watched it briefly look at him. What house would his daughter be place? Then it was announced...Hufflepuff and when Mattie looked at him he smiled. To him it was the perfect for her. He watches Mattie move to the Hufflepuff table.

McGonagoll raised an eye at the house selection and gave the Dark Arts Professor a small smile as she took the hat from the young girls head. From what she had heard Hufflepuff had just gained quite the courageous and inquisitive new student. She waited for the applause to die down, it took a few seconds as she watched some of the other Hufflepuff students whispering questions to Mattie about her cat.
Finally there was silence. She looked back at the scroll and read the next name out, "Yelena Albatros!"

Mary smiled at Matilda as she was called up. She had a soft spot for the girl. She had a heart f gold, and a fierce spirit to match. She wondered if Mattie would follow in her father's footsteps, or take her own path. She really hoped the latter.
When the hat announced her as Hufflepuff she turned to Dristan and whispered "Well chosen there, I think."
As McGonagoll called Yelena, Mary turned, curious. This was the name she was waiting for.

The blond girl with the scars straightened to her tallest, smiled, and walked proudly and confidently up to the stool, smiling at the headmistress as she sat, then smiling st the assembled students. She knew exactly where she belonged. She looked up at the hat with a broad grin.

McGonagoll gave the girl a curiously stern look as she walked up and sat down. She was impressed at the attitude and quite sure that this decision at least would not take long.
Once the girl was seated she lowered the hat into position.

The hat seemed pleased with his answer about the Adamson girl and waited for the next student to be called and seated beneath him. As the blonde walks up the few steps to the stool he could feel the confidence oozing off her.
Much like the Malfoy family it was very apparent where this girl belongs. Slytherin! the hat calls out before coming fully in touch her head. The table of green roared loudly as they gained another house member.

Yelena beams, and gets up, walking to the Slytherin table and sitting down happily. She is where she belongs. Watch out world, she thinks. She looked around her house mates, then up at the high table. She wondered which teachers she'd be having this year, and how they'd get along.

Mattie answered questions in whispers for a few moments until the Head Mistress spoke again. She quieted down and looked up as she called another first year. Yelena, it was a pretty name. She watched how the girl walked, so different then how she carried herself.
Mattie was shocked as the head only hovered over the girl's head before shouting out Slytherin. She wacthed the girl walk off towards their table. She turned and started talking again to a few friends, glancing back to the Professor's. She wondered since her father was head of Slytherin which Professor would be head of HufflePuff?
She doubted Professor Kestrel but then she didn't know any of the other teacher's either. She turned to a fellow Hufflepuff and started asking curious questions.

As Mattie was sorted into Hufflepuff, Morgana watched with stoic expression in tact. Her ferret nosed out again and slipped down to the floor, weaving under robes and inspecting shoes before it made a U Turn and came back to Morgana, perching itself on the back of her chair, watching as the next student was sorted into Slytherin. With a loud chatter its whiskers stood straight out and Morganas face twitched with a smirk, nodding in approval of the decision.
Morgana felt her eyes growing heavy and swatted at the ferret as it yanked her hair, taking a new place and vantage point on her shoulder. The exchange of glances between a professor and the Hufflepuff just freshly sorted told Morgana they were probably family. Interesting...

Chalice listens to the familiar song. She remembered the panic in knowing which would be her house. She smiled reassuringly to the first years and hummed the song to herself. She watched the new teachers come in and take their places. She was concerned about the Astronomy teacher but she put that behind her when she found out about the transfiguration teacher. She was the only one that understood her pain in shifting animals into objects. How was she to pass this year. With a sigh she watched the first years and hoped this year would be less intimidating.

Mary leaned across to Dristan, whispering again.
"Keep your eye on the blond. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised." She says.
So that was her great great ... she wasn't sure how many greats, but granddaughter. The ministry had confirmed the name. Her blood had run true through the families, and a Kestrel had married an Albatros. Pity about the twin, but this one showed promise.

Lili watches as Mattie is sorted and smiles at the fact she is hufflepuff. It would seem the Adamson line was spreading out more then just slytherin. Now all they needed was a Gryffindor...She smiled at the thought. They could potentionally have an Adamson in every house at some point. She clapped with Matties sorting and settled back down as the the next student was sorted into Slytherin.

Victoire was excited for the sorting ceremony, especially for the new first years. And as much as she knew what work lay ahead of her this year, she was excited for herself. Which was why with each new first year sorted to a house, she clapped. Sure she didn't like that so far none had made it into Ravenclaw, yet. But she was happy to have new students so she was going to be welcoming to each one. Sure house pride was good but a person had to be proud of the school they were at too. Hogwarts was going to be a second for at least seven years for them so you had to at least have some unity there. She did say something to the ones that had given Jillian a look, they didn't need that anymore in their house. And it reminded her of the stories Luna told sometimes of students taking her things and spreading them around the castle. How the woman handled it still had Vic confused cause she would have done things differently. She gave Jillian a wink and smile before clapping for the new Slytherin girl.

Jillian gave Victoire a thankful smile and a small nod, grateful that the older girl had once again spoken up in her defence. She was looking forward to the chance to catch up and chat in person.
She joined in clapping politely for the new Slytherin girl though she was a little uneasy about the young girls attitude and appearance. She was curious what might have led to those scars and her surname was not one she knew she thought.

Dristan nods to Mary. Honestly Yelena intrigued him. Why? Honestly he did not know but that was the fun of it all.
He glances at the new potions professor and even gives her a nod before returning his gaze back to the sorting ceremony.

Ambrose had been in his own head...which was really normal for him. Maybe being around so many people and so many oracle type things kept him...but who knew? Add the fact that he was always pre-occupied with something and you get a recipe of Ambrose missing something...until later. Ambrose shook his head and looked to Mary. "Sorry Professor...I think you asked how the rest of my summer went? It was alright. I...I'm here and doing better and...here I am." He shrugs and gives her a smile. "And your summer?"

Mary smiles as Ambrose clicks into gear, and acknowledges that she'd spoken to him. It was one of his quirks she quite liked, that he was often lost in his own worlds. She leaned over, speaking softly to him.
"I'm glad you are here. Truly. And my summer was ... full of events. Not all were pleasant, but then they never are, are they." She reaches out and just for a moment, lightly puts her hand on his. "I really am glad you are here. Watch the new blonde Slytherin. Tell me later your thoughts about her."

Ambrose glances at who she is talking about and nods. "Maybe I'll look her up later..." he replies in a whisper before giving her hand a gentle squeeze and looking back at her, the storms in his eyes whirling slightly. "Thank you...for wanting me here. For coming to me this summer. I just hope this year can look a bit better..." He did his best not to think of Aisha.

"Think positive. It's another new year, anything can happen." She smiles at him, then looks back at the student body. She hoped Ambrose would find happiness again. She really did. That his love was now half a world away, and a vampire, and married to someone else really didn't help.

Ambrose looked out to the students. "It will be a good year...I'm sure of it." He smiles at Mary. "You'll visit soon? So we can talk? Catch up on things?" He enjoyed the vampire's company in all honesty and was glad she was his friend.

Chalice was nervous about this year. She hadn't met any new friends and it looked like Ravenclaw didn't receive any new students. Perhaps it was better that she kept to herself. At least that way, no one could ask her about her brother or why she stayed on campus during breaks. She watched the ceremony until it completed. As there was less students she hoped it would finish soon. All she wanted to do was get to the room and talk with ink about all their adventures this summer.

Mary nods to Ambrose. "I shall."
She watched, waited, there were more students to sort her.
(We're waiting on players, then NPC sorting)

Morganas head fell to the side, light snores escaping her as she finally dozed off from boredom. The ferret snaked down her shoulder and arm and onto the table, where it stuck its head in her chalice, investigating its contents.

Vic watched the rest of the action. Feeling good that the new year was going to be great and she couldn't wait to fill Jillian on what happened over the summer especially at the station. For once it felt nice to finally have someone to talk to about these things over with. She could have gone to the college but she wanted to see her last year out at Hogwarts. This was her second home after all. She was in her own head again when she noticed movement at the head table. Seemed the new Potions professor decided to take a quick nap. But what was cute was her ferret. Yes, it was going to be an interesting year.
