If we take a walk out, in the morning dew,
We can lie down, so I'm next to you,
Come inside for a little home made tea,
And if you fall asleep, at least you're next to me,

‘Poor kid’s got no confidence…’ Jonah found himself thinking as he listened to the younger boy. He could relate. When he’d first started, he didn’t exactly expect to make many friends either. He remembered trying with Alexander Mason, but of course, the bloke had gone off with a different group after the first few months and they didn’t even talk anymore. If Sonora hadn’t looked after him at the feast his first night as well, he’d probably be studying in the library by himself most nights. “Listen, Eion. Anyone with an older relative in this school is gonna meet some people through that person. That’s just how connections work. But, it’s gonna be up to you whether or not people will actually like you. Ferdie’s got nothing to do with it. Personally, I like you just fine. I think Ravenclaw’s going to be perfect for you. Just… You know, try your best, okay? And try not to worry about the other people too much. Trust me, the right people will find you.” He reached over to give the boy a quick ruffle of his hair before pulling back from Sona and returning properly to his seat. “And with The Dragon, don’t sweat it. Don’t feel like you should do anything because your brother did. But, I really would love to have you there. Door’s always open.” Jonah decided it was best to leave it at that. Besides, it was time to eat, and he was starving.

During the meal though, he’d been shocked to find his coffee had been swapped out for water. A suspicious glance to Sonora confirmed she was the mastermind behind the theft and he chuckled at the prank, taking the hint. “You’re worse than my mother. Fine, I’ll drink the bloody water.” But seriously, warm water? That he’d have to fix. A quickly cast “Glacius” left his water—Sonora’s water?—nice and chilled, if not partially frozen. Well, it’d take some more practice, but it would do just fine.

Towards the end of the evening Jonah had felt a light tap on his arm. He turned his attention to Sonora and listened carefully for her question, nearly impossible to hear among all the chatter around them, but he was pretty sure he got the gist of it. “Oh, maybe?” It didn’t look like the other tables were being gathered right then, but after a glance at his pocket watch, it certainly did seem like it was time to hit the corridors. The first years seemed to be done eating, so why not? “Yeah, sure, let’s round ‘em up.”

Jonah stood from his seat, then up on the bench so to easier catch the attention of the younger students. He offered Sonora his hand to pull her up with him. Actually, now that they were up, it was a little nerve-wracking to have so many little faces looking up at them. Sonora squeaked a "Hello!" and he hid a snicker behind his hand. At least he wasn’t alone in this.

“Once again, welcome to Ravenclaw! My name is Sonora Li, one of your house prefects. This is Jonah Lane, your other fifth year prefect.”

“We know you’re having fun and the night is young, but it’s time to head to the Common Room. Grab a buddy and follow us! It’s a long way up.” Jonah hopped backwards off the bench before carefully helping Sonora back down. Once the kids began to line up, he did a quick headcount, and nodded to Sonora. “I think we’re good. Alright kids, let’s move out!”

Underneath this oak tree, with you beside me.
