The cheers gave way as the final first year was sorted and took his spot at the Ravenclaw table. It had all gone smoothly and now it was time for Professor Dumbledore to introduce his staff, state the rules --especially the one concerning the Forbidden Forest -- and talk about his new brilliant plan for cooperation amongst the students and staff. Still, as much as he desired to prattle on about the leather books, he took great care in attending to every detail the student body needed to be aware of. Then, finally, his eyes twinkled just a tad bit more than usual as he proclaimed he had a delightful way for the classes to know one another. He explained the charms while stressing they had the right to privacy hexes. He took questions and, lastly, emphasized that the students were to write at least once a month to avoid detention. Followed by a concluding nod and smile, he encouraged all to eat and be merry.
