MENTIONING: Scylla Cromwell (Lady Sakura) and Xual Cromwell (Lady Sakura) -OPEN-<br/><hr/><br/>The two new Ravenclaw first years seemed to both be handling this differently. Morgaine went on about how she thought that Ravenclaws were supposed to be the best minds and the finest students before changing the subject to her fiance and something about massages. Meanwhile, his words seemed to make Finely relax a bit.<br/><br/>Finely's last question made him chuckle, "Fuck no. Still don't. Not really. To tell you the truth, I think the house system is total shit. We're really letting a magical hat tell us who we are?" he pointed at Morgaine, who was sitting not far from them, "She thinks we're supposed to be the best minds in Hogwarts and therefore the finest students. We're letting a hat tell us what it means to be smart? Think about it, being brave is smart. Being loyal is smart. Being cunning is smart. We're all Ravenclaws by that thought. You can do that with any house trait. I'm not going to let a hat or a house name tell me what it means to be smart."<br/><br/>Silas realized he was getting a little too deep into things. It went against what people knew of him and he tried to shove it back, "But, hey, maybe I'm wrong. We're supposed to be the brightest kids in school, but there always has to be an exception to the rule and that's me. Silas Cork. Idiot of the Ravenclaw nest. Someone has to make the rest of you look better," he smiled as he insulted himself, "You'll find your place and fit in no time. You look like a bright kid."<br/><br/>"And you," he pointed at Morgaine again, "Might want to tell that girl of yours to hold off on the massages. Some people might be expecting happy endings with those and are going to be sorely disappointed," it was easy to let the jackass back out of the bag as he talked a more.<br/><br/>The Sorting Hat shouted out another one for Ravenclaw and he whistled a little as she walked by. It wasn't a lewd whistle, mostly just noise to make attention, "Oh, she looks a little mean. You two," he commented towards Finely and Morgaine, "Might want to watch yourselves. She's a Cromwell. I know her brother a little," he wondered what Xual would think of his little sister being stuck in Ravenclaw tower with him. He didn't make it common knowledge that he didn't go after first years, but it was well known that Silas had slept with a good number of people at school. He tried not to get on people's bad side in a really bad way. It was one thing to have a bad breakup, but he didn't need to cross lines with anyone. Silas wasn't scared of Xual, but he wasn't looking to start any fights either. Maybe it was best to keep his distance from her for now.<br/><br/>Silas didn't outwardly have an issue with Xual Cromwell. Yet he knew that issues could spring up quick when it came to siblings. Broken nose once in his life for hitting on someone's sister was one time too many for Silas Cork.
