Rikku bounced back to the Hufflepuff common room after the feast, talking the ear off one of the poor timid first years until she caught sight of Wan off in a corner. No one should be hiding out on their first day at Hogwarts, she had to make him feel more welcome!
"I'll talk to you later," she told the little girl, happily making her way out of the crowd and over to the boy she was going to make her new friend.
"Hi Wan!!" She engulfed him into her tiny arms, giving him a tight squeeze. "How are you doing? You shouldn't be hiding in the corner all by yourself, that's no fun!"
