Sparrow laughed merrily when Cenek joked he would just give Wren some false report about her dating life. ”Good! That meddlesome dork doesn’t need to know!” Sparrow was honestly still touched at the idea that Wren had asked Cenek to watch over her. She was confused--that sounded like the kind of thing lazy Wren wouldn’t bother with.
Sparrow nodded, smiling at the idea that Ari would have adopted the Way of the Potato. ”It was a lifetime ago…” she murmured, staring off across the empty hall. ”Potatoes! We need to have some kind of potato dish! Potato fish potato dish? Let’s recommend Weslyn make fish-shaped potato pancakes!”
She asked if he was getting enough rest and thankfully Cenek assured her that they had a solid team this year that was making everything go smoothly. She nodded with a wide smile, glad things were going well and he was able to get enough rest. She knew he also had Quidditch to worry about and how easily sleepless nights could stack up.
Cenek turned at her with a grin, asking about her playing matchmaker. She sat up abruptly, exclaiming distraughtly when Cenek said he still didn’t have a date. ”Cenek! How could you not? Okay well let’s see. You work well with Weslyn so that could work? But we want something with chemistry! Something that will make this a fun night, not just work.” She burst out in sudden laughter ”Okay but we can agree that your anti-match would be like Marcella. There’s not even a potential enemies to lovers angle there.”
Sparrow hopped to her feet, pacing the hall with light steps as she thought through what would make a good pairing for Cenek. ”Someone lively but not too much so, who you can have a good conversation with. I imagine you out in the garden, swapping opinions on snacks or masks.” Sparrow pressed her brows together, staring at Cenek as she thought of people that might fit that mental image. ”What about--Oh! DOH, Penny! YES. Penny is cute, and you’re good friends, and I haven’t heard that she has a date! You’re already going to a wedding with her-- she should’ve been my first thought! Cenek, why haven’t you asked her yet?”

Ace sits at the table eating lunch around 11:30, he was thinking about how he should join a club next year for his second year. He paused for a moment from eating to glance around, he thought he should start making some friends but didn't know how to start. He went back to eating hoping someone would approach him first as he was bad at introducing himself to people he doesn't know. Since it was Saturday ace was wearing a simple green Metallica shirt with a black long sleeve shirt underneath for extra warmth as he gets quite cool easily and he isn't a big fan of the cold. He was also wearing black jeans but he personally didn't like them as they were extremely uncomfortable and felt like they were rubbing against his skin the wrong way, normal tennis shoes finish off the outfit. Ace was eating his favorite food spaghetti since it was an option that was available, He was really thinking about joining the art club because he thought it would be a good idea to put his creativity to use and make some art of his own to share with others and see their reactions.

Aaah, lunchtime. One of Cadfael's favorite times of day. Of course, his usual favorite was a big dinner, followed by bed.... but lunch with a nice nap afterwards was good too. Ceri, on the other hand, was always wired. Cae glanced over as his twin rattled on about their plans for that weekend. "....and then I might see if one of the Captains or maybe Professor Liu can let me borrow a broom so I can fly! What'd ya think?"
The twins made eye contact, and Ceri huffed. "Did your brain fall asleep?" Thankfully, she simply laughed when Cae sent over a sleepy grin. He could fall asleep anytime, anywhere. "I heard the part about borrowing a broom. I can come out and watch, how 'bout?" And just like that, Ceri was back to her normal grin. "Where should we sit? I'm tired," the Hufflepuff said, a small grin playing at the corners of his lips.
Ceridwyn took charge, leading her twin to one of the tables. There sat one of their year-mates, and Cae's housemate. "Hi there! Ace, right? Mind if we sit with ya for lunch?" She asked, a bright smile showing off her braces. Cae offered a small wave, adding a quiet, "Hey, Ace."

Ace was startled, looking over to the person who just spoke, He paused. "um... y-yeah you can sit here." he stuttered a bit but he pulled through. he wasn't great at talking with other kids, so he hoped he wasn't too awkward.
he moved over abit to let them sit down, he was curious as to why they were there, Not that he minded or anything.
"Oh hello Cae, hello Ceri. im just wondering did you guys sign up to any clubs? Or are you waiting until you find just the right one for you guys to fit right in with the others too? And honestly im still surprised Cae is still awake, given him usually falling asleep at a moments notice." he said curiously until he realized he might've talked abit to much "oh im sorry, i was rambling again, my apologies"
he was embarrassed for rambling on and on about things, he made a mental note to start to work at that.

Ceri grinned over at Ace when he said they could sit with him. "Hi Ace!" Ceri echoed her brother's greeting, working on setting up her plate as he did his own. Matching blue eyes looked over at Ace when he asked about clubs. Don't worry, his hungry-ness outweighs his sleepiness right now! Aha! And, to answer your other question, we're both in clubs! I'm in more than Cae, though." She nodded happily, while her twin added a bit more information. "I may switch them up a bit next year. For now, I'm in Astronomy, book club, chess club.... oh, and language too." He nodded sleepily, hiding a yawn behind his arm.
"And I'm in book club, fencing, dueling, fite club, wandering, and creatures clubs! I also am on the quidditch team.... sorta. I'm a reserve right now, but maybe next year I'll be on the main team." Cae nodded as he munched on a sausage. Thanks to their collective allergies, the kids had a rather odd sort of diet. When Ace apologized for rambling, Ceri laughed a bit as Cae spoke. "Trust me, compared to Ceri, you're practically laconic. But also, don't worry. You're allowed to use your voice." Cae sent over a soft smile before letting his sister take the wheel.
"Yea! If you wanna talk, you go ahead and chat! It's not going to bother us any at all. Because, like, I talk a lot! Cae doesn't but as you pointed out, he's usually either asleep or thinking about being asleep. Meanwhile there's me, who got all of our energy, y'know? I looooooove talking to people and making friends! Mam always says I talk enough for the both of us!" She laughed happily, before Cae simply added, "See?"

Pàdraig had been having a lazy day and had slept through breakfast this morning despite several attempts to wake him. He had homework to do, but that could be handled tomorrow... or Monday morning before class. What had finally gotten him out of bed was his growling tummy and thankfully, Hogwarts had big meals. The orphanage did have decent food, but their selections were limited and it wasn't an all-you-can-eat situation. Pàddy usually ate too much at each meal since he simply could. As the Gryffindor walked into the Great Hall, he looked for some of his friends he could sit with. He saw the twins Cae and Ceri sitting with another boy he recognized from their year. Couldn't really remember his name, but Pàd wasn't the best and remembering names. Walking over to the table where the three were sitting, he dropped down along with them and yawned, then said, "G'day, folks! Is there anythin' tasty for lunch oan the day?" The chestnut-haired boy grabbed a plate from the stack and started to lazily select different items to build himself a tall lunch plate.

Ace nodded, a soft smile falling onto his lips and he was happy to learn he could talk without any issues, he saw the newcomer and remembered seeing him around but didn't quite get his name. He should probably fix that though.
Ace looked over to the new kid and asked quietly enough so he wasn't awkward but loud enough that the kid heard him. "uh excuse me... i remember seeing you around but never quite got your name.. Mine is Ace is you're wondering."
"have you guys run into him before? im just curious to be honest." Ace had asked the twins if they met the kid before he did, which wouldn't be surprising if they did as they seemed to know most of the people it seemed like.
xx✯Wʜᴇʀᴇ ᴀʀᴇ ᴡᴇ?Great Hall xxx✯Wʜᴏ ɪs ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴜs?Each Other, Ace, & Pàdraig xxxx✯Wʜᴀᴛ's Gᴏɪɴɢ Oɴ?Lunch! xxxxx✯Wʜᴀᴛ's ɪɴsɪᴅᴇ ᴏᴜʀ ʜᴇᴀᴅs?We're a nice little group now!
As they were discussing clubs, another voice popped up. Two sets of blue eyes looked up to see Pàdraig there. He was asking about lunch, so Cae sent over a grin. "It's more UK-centric food. I'm hoping eventually they'll make food from somewhere else." He chuckled softly, working on some beans. Ceri laughed along, looking up from her salad. "For real! Some different food would be worth it. Though there's also apparently a kitchen that anybody can use, so maybe we can get Mum's recipes and bring 'em next year. Then we can have yummy food anytime we choose." Of course, Cae would probably appreciate that a bit too much.
The twins looked over at Ace, who was wondering Pàd's name. They were then asked about him, and Ceri happily offered up the information requested. "Yes! This is Pàdraig Kincaide. He's in our year, but in my house. So now we've got two Gryffindors!" She grinned, looking pleased. "He's on the quidditch team's reserves with Ceri. They're doing too much." Cae added with a yawn. "You're not gonna say that when I make the team and then get really good and then go professional and then have oodles of galleons!" Ceri said, all in one breath.

The Gryffindor laughed a little when Cae said that the food was UK-centric, then shrugged and added, "As long as they’ve got sausage, then I’m happy wi’ it." Ceri mentioned a kitchen that the students could use and wondered where that might be. Mostly out of curiosity, since he didn't know how to cook at all. Ceri then introduced him to the other boy, who had previously introduced himself as Ace. Pàdraig smirked and said, "Aye, that’s ma name. But ma mates mostly call me Pàddy. Ye can call me that as weel." Cae mentioned that Pàd was on Gryffindor's reserve team with Ceri, then Ceri said she was going to be a pro Quidditch player. He chuckled and added, "I’m likely no goin’ tae be pro. I want tae be an Auror when ah’m auld enough. Ah reckon Aurors are braw." He remembered back to that day when the Auror showed up at the house to tell Pàddy that he was going to take him somewhere safe after his... after that day. After he'd been alone for three days. Momentarily he smile dropped off his face as he remembered that awful week. Then it popped back on when he spotted a plate of sausages. "Oh look, sausages! Pure belter!" He happily gathered a bunch of them onto his plate and tucked right into them.
