Ashely smiled and nodded at Riku, both the other Ravenclaw First Year's friendliness and the placement of Renee Lestrange making her very cheerful. She was not prone to assuming anything, nor passing judgement, and when the now no longer mystery student was Sorted into Gryffindor she realize more that she wanted to get to know the young woman. She watched the voluptuous redhead move to the Gryffindor table, and Ashley, always comfortable with her sexuality, discreetly got a good look. She bit her lip, wondering if she really knew how attractive she was. Renee had an aura of confidence, but also an air of understanding. She was set in her mind to talk to the new Gryffindor some at the mixer, but now she was hungry. Her tummy moved just a bit, not loudly, but she looked from Riku to Alice, her words soft.
"I am guessing we are going to move onto the Feast.. after the Headmistress is finished speaking soon I hope. I have to admit I was too nervous to eat much on the train or in London. I hope that is not a bad thing?"

Renee walked to the Gryffindor table, smiling softly. She had so deeply desired to be in the house of her sponsor, the great Harry Potter, but she also would have been happy in Ravenclaw she knew. She moved to sit down at the most near available seat, next to a lovely blonde young woman. She smiled at her, extending her hand in friendship. She had in in her mind to get to know as many people at the school as she could, and it had not escaped her notice of the man who had come in late right after she had been Sorted. He was handsome in his own way, and she made it also a point to get to know as much of the faculty as she could. She thought all of this, speaking finally to the blonde woman with the lovely eyes.
"My friends call me Renee, and I hope we can get to be friends. May I asked your name?"
Her eyes only left the other young woman's for a moment, going to look at an older male student, a Sixth Year, who had nodded in her direction. She noted in her mind to get to know him the first chance she could, as it was obvious he was wanting to know her at least as a fellow student.

Renee's acknowledgement of Samuel let him know that she was open to friendship, and that would please Alice as well. He just had the feeling that the two of them would find common ground, especially with the way he had noticed that Renee had giggled a bit when McAlistair had put the kibosh on what Jensen had did. He also stole a look at the new arrival who joined the rest of the faculty on the dais, and he wondered if that was the new Assistant Professor that his mother had discussed over the summer. He waited, both hoping that things would not take much longer so the Feast would start, and also wondering if McAlistair had a good reason to give the students as to why Prof. Magnus was not there. He didn't have long to wait, as he watched the woman straighten up to continue.
Headmistress McAlistair then went into the conclusion of her address for the assembled in the Great Hall, her tone once again cheerful and light.
"And finally, it is my pleasure to announce two new additions to the faculty here at Hogwarts Secondary. First, I would like to say that this year we are joined by Professor James Magnus, who will be taking over the Defense Against the Dark Arts and Potions posts. A number of you know him from his guest lectures here, as well as his years teaching at Hogwarts Primary. He also will be the new co-head of the Dueling Club, sharing duties with yours truly. Professor Magus has been detained by a pressing matter, which will be remedied in the very immediate future. I also would like to announce that Professor Remus Lupin, here, will also be the Associate Professor of both classes, as well as the Root Founder of the Were Awareness Foundation, which is now here on the Main Campus, with specialized buildings open close by off campus."
She had gestured to Remus, and then led in a round of applause, few needing the encouragement. When the applause died down, she then wrapped it up in her own style. She first sang the two verses of the School Alma Mater, leading all in doing so, and then closed at the moment the song was over.
"Ladies and gentlemen... let the First Feast begin!!"
