First year Aladrens follow me. by Professor John Fawcett
After the Feast came the first of John's duties as Head of Aladren for the year. Doing his best to look leader-like, a feat helped along by his wife having personally selected navy blue robes for him before he left home that Allison was prepared to swear lacked ink stains of any kind, he gave Amelia, as the Deputy Head, the courtesy of calling for her group of first years and looked at Miss Brockert in mild confusion for a moment until he remembered hearing that Professor Crosby was ill before setting about collecting his decent number of Aladrens for the trip back to the common room and speech to follow."Aladrens!" he called, quite glad of his height for once, though still regretting that it was a bit beneath his dignity to call for the blue people. That had a lower risk of confusion, but just wasn't done. "Over here, Aladrens...thank you, good evening...."
The head count came up right very soon, but the colors had all faded, so it was still possible there had been a mixup. "I am Professor Fawcett," he informed them. "Head of Aladren House. If you did not, after drinking the Sorting potion, turn blue, you should go join one of my colleagues and your own Housemates."
Once he was fairly sure he only had people he was supposed to have here, he made the effort to smile in what he hoped was a welcoming way. "Welcome," he said, ensuring the message got across. "Stay together, now, and I will show you the way to your common room and dormitories."
OOC: Continued on the Aladren Common Room board. Feel free to continue your Opening Feast threads; thanks to what we call 'fuzzy time,' these posts going up doesn't mean the feast threads must end now. You may reply to these posts if you would like to, but it isn't necessary.
