The One with the Purple Hair
September 8, 2020 | The Great Hall | Lunch
Starlee walked into the bustling great hall for lunchtime, her robes a little disheveled from just finishing a flying lesson. It was quite fun; she finally managed to get her broom to hover a few feet above the ground, but she was totally famished. She stopped at the entryway and looked around. Everyone in the hall seemed to be happily chatting away and woofing down whatever food was in front of them. She was jealous. She had no friends in her own house. She did have an enemy, but for obvious reasons, she wouldn't be eating with that girl. No. Way. It was only her second week at Hogwarts, and she was still feeling overwhelmed about the whole thing. She needed to do something to make some friends, lest she becomes some real sort of social outcast of Slytherin.
She turned to walk down the long row of tables, eyeing different groups of Slytherins to see if she could squeeze in. But many of them were giving her dirty looks. Was it because she was a first-year? She certainly felt unwanted. By this point, she had reached the end of the long tables and doubled back to find an empty spot to eat alone. So... what was on the menu for today? She peered around at the trays in front of her. It looked like there were stacks of veggie, tuna, and ham sandwiches, along with bowls of various fruits: Apples, bananas, and grapes. She grabbed a slice of tuna and a veggie sandwich and began to slowly rearrange the two sandwiches to create the perfect sandwich - tuna with lettuce and tomato. She took a bite and looked around. Everyone else seemed to be having a great time and she felt like she was the only person alone. She grabbed an apple from a nearby bowl and took a large bite. It was at that moment that something - or should she say someone - caught her eye. Her jaw dropped and the bite of apple she had just taken fell ungracefully down the front of her robes. That Purple Hair.... She hardly noticed the juice from the apple slowly seeping into her robes as she couldn't take her eyes off of them. She had to talk to them. It was at this point she was openly gawking at the other without realizing it. Starlee began to formulate a plan as to how to approach them... but how?

They just got out from History of Magic class when their stomach grumble. How can they stay awake during History of Magic, Cash would never know. After the class being dismissed by the Professor, Cash along side some of their 'friends' climb down the stairs towards the Great Hall, just in time for lunch time rolled in.
Cash with their 'friends' took a seat on the long wooden bench and table of Slytherin. When they sat down, two stacks of Cuban sandwich appear in front of them along with some varieties beverages to choose. The Cuban sandwich consist of roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard pressed on crispy Cuban bread.
They missed home and this comfort food mend their homesickness. Though it is one of Cash favorite dish, still their mother Cuban sandwich is unbeatable. One of Cash 'friends' ask them about something that Cash did not pay any attention for it. Although they seat with some of their classmate, they prefer solitude and quietness.
"Oi, mate! Watch it"Cash exclaimed when one of them bumped into Cash by accident because the four of their 'friends' joking exaggeratedly, almost making the grape juice inside the silver goblet that they hold spilled into their uniform. If ever the grape juice spilled on their uniform, Cash know the spell how to fix it.
Their 'friends' did not even care to say an apology. "Estúpido! (idiot)"The green eyes girl grumble out. While they continue to eat the sandwich, they can sense someone watching them. Cash too lazy to look around for the said person and so they continue eating their sandwich and finished it so they can move to their next class which is Potion.

The One with the Purple Hair
Starlee watched the other person in sheer awe; the other was hanging out with some friends, but they didn't seem too interested in them. 'Wow... they seem SO cool!' she thought, unable to stop her gawking still. Starlee watched as the other almost had a goblet of grape juice drench their robes, and they said: "Estúpido!" loudly enough at their friends for Starlee to hear. Again, Starlee was awed at the other standing up for themselves. 'How... COOL!' At this point, the other had finished their sandwich, of which Starlee had never seen anything like it, and it looked like they were about to leave.
'No... they couldn't leave now!' Starlee thought as she quickly got off the bench, her foot somewhat catching on the edge, almost causing her to trip. She recovered quickly and ran down the length of the table to the other person. She halted right in front of the other, her mouth totally agape, unsure of what to say. She slowly pulled herself together and finally managed out a small "Hi..." that only they would be able to hear.
Starlee realized how quiet this was and decided she needed to be more forceful. If she was to make friends, she would certainly have to work for it. "I saw you from the other end of the table there... Your hair is really cool!" She blurted out the last sentence before she could stop herself and her face lit up as she stared up at the tall one's hair. She was going to ask if the other was okay after the almost juice toppling incident, but apparently that was not the way this interaction was headed. She was certainly going to make a fool of herself in her awestruck state.

Cash had just finished their Cuban sandwich and the remnants of their grape juice. They about to get up and leave the Hall until some of their friends snickered about something or maybe someone. "What are you laughing about?"Cash asked one one of their first.
The other girl in the small circle of Cash's acquaintances point to a girl that in the hurried manner get out from where she originally seated, almost make her tripped herself in the process. The other girl walk towards the green eyes. When the other girl stand in from of Cash's section of the table, her mouth agape. Cash smirked at her.
The others that had been with them, this time around snickering more loudly. The other girl seems to snapped out from whatever reverie she was in and from the uniform and robes she wears, she belong in the same house as the purple hair girl. "Hi..."The other girl let out a small greeting. "Hello"Cash greeted the other girl in polite manner.
Their friends keep snickering in the background. Cash whipped their head toward the annoying bunch. "Could you stop that?"Cash berated them. "It is annoying and all of you are starting to get on my nerve!"They gritted their teeth. They did not want to lost their cool in front of the girl. Cash never seen the girl before so the girl must be a first year.
"Since when do you have a heart, Cash?"The bespectacled raven hair with blue-gray eyes boy addressed them. Cash pulled out their wand and pointed it to the boy. "Want to find out? Test me"Cash stated. There is coldness seeping out from every word that Cash uttered. The boy hold up both of his hands up in the air. Signaling he was surrendered.
Cash then shifted their attention back to the girl that still standing in front of them. "I saw you from the other end of the table there... Your hair is really cool!"The girl told Cash. Cash smile at the compliment. "Thank you"They expressed. The silence between the blonde girl and Cash are palpable and they feel awkward all of sudden until..
"Aww! Would you look at that guys, Ironwoods here have their very first open admirer"This time around is the girl that with the green eyes had said it, the others laugh obnoxiously. "Do not mind her, she is just jealous"The purple hair second year spoke to the person that stand in front of them.
The girl that sat beside them scoffed loudly enough that Cash heard it but the green eyes ignore it. "You are a first year, are you?"Cash question the obvious fact. It would be nice when the new girl stand in front of them confirmed it.
OOC Note - I change my color code so it does not clashed with your green. I hope you don't mind.

The One with the Purple Hair
Starlee did her best to ignore the other student's friends, but it wasn't working. Starlee took a look around at them as they snickered back at her. She suddenly blushed bright red, realizing now how this interaction could come off as strange. She couldn't help herself, the purple-haired student was just too cool. It was then that the purple-hair student stood up to their friends again, telling them to stop their snickering. "Could you stop that? It is annoying and all of you are starting to get on my nerve!"
Starlee's mouth closed up quickly, as she looked around at the student's friends. The other boy stepped up, saying "Since when do you have a heart, Cash?" Starlee took a step back as the student reprimanded the boy again, saying "Want to find out? Test me." 'Whoa. That has got to be the coolest person ever.'
It was then that the awkward silence fell between them after Starlee's compliment and Starlee scrambled to find something else to say. She had no idea what else to add. One of the other's friends decided to use this time to speak up again, "Aww! Would you look at that guys, Ironwoods here have their very first open admirer."
Starlee thought her face couldn't get any redder, but at this point, she was so embarrassed she felt like her face was on fire. Why had she done this? It was a stupid idea to come up to someone so cool with all of their friends around them. However, the purple-haired student addressed her this time, seemingly deciding to ignore her friend's taunts, and telling her "Do not mind her, she is just jealous. You are a first year, are you?"
Starlee nodded up at the upperclassmen. "Yea, I am..." she stammered out as she couldn't help but nervously look down at her hands that she then shoved into the pockets of her robes. "My name is Starlee... Starlee Kennedy." She looked back up at the purple-haired student. It was then that something else in her head clicked. She had seen the team photo down in the Slytherin Common room, and Starlee became entirely overwhelmed with excitement over the other. How could she forget that hair? Starlee's face was still bright red, but now in excitement, and she smiled up at the other, saying, "Wait... I know you!! You are on the Quidditch Team!! Right? What is your name???" Starlee's overexcitement caused her to jump around a little as she asked the other these questions.

The One with the Purple Hair
The other four keep their snickering and it annoyed the green eyes. At this point Cash gave up to make them stop. And so Cash keep their focus on the first year and ignore their acquaintances antics. As the other four keep laughing, Cash rolled their eyes. After the girl confirmed that she indeed a first year, Cash smiled at the fact.
It was not long that the purple hair in the new girl shoes. A year had passed by and in the said year a lot of things happened in the green eyes life. "My name is Starlee... Starlee Kennedy"The new girl introduce her name. "Well then, Star.. I can call you Star, right?"They inquired the new girl. Some of their friends are not comfortable with nicknames.
And the green eyes did not want to make Starlee uncomfortable. Starlee looked at them and it made the purple hair a bit uncomfortable with the way she examine them. "Wait... I know you!! You are on the Quidditch Team!! Right? What is your name???"Starlee questioned the second year with excitement. "My name is Cassandra Ironwoods"They said.
"As he called me, Cash for short"Cash stated what the bespectacled boy called her a minute ago. "And yes I am"Cash answered Starlee question about the green eyes being in the Quidditch Team. "Phoenix"The girl fake coughing - taunting called out the green eye first name. Cash tried so hard to not hexed the annoying girl.
Meeting new people can be a bit frightening but Cash shot out a smile to assure Starlee that she had nothing to be fright about. "You know what,"They expressed. Cash lifted up the books that from the table and picked it up. "Where are you going, mate?"The bespectacled boy asked them. "Somewhere far away from you, brats"They told the other four.
"You ditched us for the new girl?"The other girl in Cash little circle of friend enquired them in disbelief. "You will live without me"They told the girl without looking back. Cash put some distance between the other four and sit again on the long bench and table, waiting Starlee to follow them.
From where they seated, one of them said "Definitely a fan" and the four of them laugh again.

The One with the Purple Hair
"Well then, Star.. I can call you Star, right?" The other asked if they could call Starlee Star. Well, only her bestest of friends could call her that... and she certainly felt that an older student as cool as this one should have the opportunity to! Starlee nodded quite vigorously at the older student and said "Of course you can! Call me whatever you want!" The last sentence she blurted out and, in realizing that that could open up a lot of room for taunting from the others friends, she clapped both of her hands over her mouth and said, a little muffled through her hands, "Well... not whatever of course..." She dropped her hands and shoved them into her pockets and looked back down at her feet again. 'Well this was not at all going how she had planned..."
But it wasn't long after Starlee had again forgotten completely about the purple-haired student's friends in her excitement over possibly meeting a real Quidditch player. 'Cassandra Ironwoods. What a cool name...' She thought to herself. Not only that, but Starlee could call them Cash. Cue the internal screaming. Her mouth fell open a bit as Cash then said they were on the Quidditch team. 'How much cooler can Cash get!?!' I mean, come on. That hair? Amazing. That attitude? SO cool. AND a Quiddich Player??? Heck. Yes. She really couldn't handle her excitement and was grinning at Cash like a fool.
It was then that Cash's friends popped in... again. One of them said while coughing,"Phoenix!" 'Phoenix? What on earth did that mean?' Starlee pondered. It seemed that the remark had struck a nerve with Cash, however, as they quickly picked up their books and began heading off, all the while telling their friends that they were going "Somewhere far away from you, brats" and that "You will live without me." Starlee, having no books with her, quickly followed after Cash like a puppy. There was another round of giggles as Starlee caught up with Cash, who was looking expectantly at her. She let out a sigh of relief as she realized Cash did want her to follow them.
"So... uh... Where are we going... Cash?" Starlee loved saying the others name. It made her feel so cool. She simply couldn't wait to write to her parents about meeting such an awesome person, and telling some of the other first-years that she was friends with a Quidditch player. EEEEKKK!

The One with the Purple Hair
After the green eyes asked Starlee if they can call the other serpent by 'Star', the other girl nodded her head nodded quite vigorously. Cash was afraid her neck will snapped with how hard she nodded her head. Starlee said that the second year can called her 'whatever you want' but then Starlee clapped both of her hands over her mouth, realizing her mistake.
The first year student said something but Cash could not heard it due her mouth was cover by her hand. Cash look at Starlee with amusing grin. How adorable, they thought internally. Cash had just walked off to put a slight distance between them and their other four annoying acquaintances.
They sit themselves down again on the long bench of the dining table at the Great Hall and it looks like there is a bit miscommunication between the young serpent and the purple hair. Cash once again lifted up their heavy and thick book while approaching Starlee where the other girl on her mid way towards the green eyes.
Their other friends keep looking at them with disbelieve eyes. Cash did not pay mind at that. They draped one of their arm that was not holding the book and put it on Starlee's shoulders. "Well, first of I need to put this book down"Cash told Starlee and make a oomph sound implying how heavy and thick the book that they are holding.
"Second of, we will go to a place where no other people can not enter except me and a few others"Cash stated vaguely. Both of Cash and Starlee walk toward the big door of the Great Hall. The green eyes then stop for a moment. They look at Starlee.
"You do have something long and warm, right? Because where we will going, it will be ice cold and.. "The green eyes trailed off and deliberately making Starlee guess where both of the students will be heading. "You will know when we get there"Cash added to their statement. And so both of them keep walking until they exit the Hall.

Final Interactions with @Cassandra Ironwoods
Starlee hadn't realized that Cash had originally intended to stay in the Great Hall, but it seemed that Cash had decided to grab at the opportunity to go somewhere more... interesting. Starlee smiled back at Cash as they picked up their heavy book from the table. Man, Starlee sure was glad she wasn't a second-year yet... she could barely manage to carry the large books she had for her first-year classes! It was then Cash draped their arm on Starlee's shoulder and Starlee looked back up at them, excited to see what the other had to say.
"Well, first of I need to put this book down. Second of, we will go to a place where no other people can not enter except me and a few others." Cash told her. Hmm... What on earth could that mean? It was only Starlee's second week here at Hogwarts and she was still getting horribly lost in this school that she thought should be renamed 'Labyrinth.' 'Much more fitting...' she thought. But... she did think it would be great if they had their own secret hideout! Somewhere that they could get away from everything. 'Yea... that would certainly be something.'
"You do have something long and warm, right? Because where we will going, it will be ice cold and.. You will know when we get there." Something warm? Hmm... These September Scottish days have been getting cooler, but ice cold? She figured Cash was being a little over-dramatic about it, because really, nowhere around here would be ice cold, and she decided that her robes would certainly be enough. She trotted along next to Cash as they exited the Great Hall, off to a place Starlee could have never imagined existed at Hogwarts.
Starlee Kennedy left the thread.
This thread will now be marked as finished.
