"The hat was only on me for about a minute," said Cora, frowning. "I heard it muttering things, but I couldn't quite catch it. Next thing I knew it was screaming Ravenclaw."

"But..." he started to protest. Realizing Ricardo wasn't going anywhere, he sighed. "Never mind." He picked up his plate of food and started eating, glancing up at Ricardo every once in a while.

Ricardo sighed, putting his plate down. "Okay. Why do you keep looking up like that?"

"No reason!" he mumbled quickly, shoveling a bite of mashed potatoes into his mouth. I guess he's not just a figment of my imagination after all...

"Uhm... Alright." Ricardo shoved his plate aside, lying down in front of the crackling fire. "Hey, I was wondering... Who are your friends? Who do you normally talk to?"

"Oh...y'know...people in classes..." he answered evasively. "I'm not sure you would know them..."

Vincent fell silent for a moment, obviously unable to come up with any names. "Fine! I talk to no one! I don't have any friends, alright? Are you happy now?"

He paused for a moment, scooting over to sit by Vincent's chair. "Then what am I, chopped liver?"

"Oh...n-no, you aren't..." he said, thoroughly surprised.

Satisfied, Ricardo stretched out in front of the fire. "So you don't have 'no one.' Not as long as I'm around."

(Bro, are you out of school?)
"But why would you want to be friends with me? I mean..."

(Not exactly. My bus driver hasn't showed up)
Ricardo looked up. "Because you're not a bad person. You seem nice to talk to. Mostly."

(Ahh... You must get out of school earlier than I do? We get out an hour and a half from now)
"Well, I can't say anybody else has thought the same..." he sighed. "I think I scare people off."

He paused. "Well, you do kind of come off as... Hostile, to begin with."
(Since its midterms we have early release)

"I–I know I do... I usually screw things up right from the start, so all of...this is somewhat of a shock."

Ricardo gave him a small smile. "Maybe you could try to actually start conversations with people. Baby steps, y'know?"

Tessa waited as the sorting drew to an end, her stomach growing ever more impatient by the minute. As the final student scurried off to the Slytherin table, almost dropping the hat in her haste and eliciting a laugh from the whole room, the headteacher stood up to make a speech. The Ravenclaw groaned, resting her head in her hands.

Xander glanced around the Great Hall with a rather satisfied look on his expression as if he has just proven his point. "See." He whispered, blanking the headteacher's speech for the sixth year running. "That poor child is traumatised for life from that bad hat experience. It's a curse and we should get rid of it, tradition or not."
