Skylar nodded in agreement while Aedan spoke, remembering mentions of the man during the war. Her own mother had remained mostly uninvolved with the Death Eaters, however she didn't speak against them either and was considered a supporter. Shrugging the thoughts aside, Skylar joked and laughed throughout the evening-time meal, eating to her hearts content and socializing with her two newfound friends. 
There were a few other Slytherins that had started to warm up to the idea of having her around, laughing at her jokes and responding with some of their own. She couldn't consider those few friends yet, but she hoped that some day soon she might. As the night drew to a close, Skylar parted with Mo and Aedan and returned to her own house, following the group to the Ravenclaw tower. Fascinated by her their new home, many Ravenclaw students found little sleep in the excitement. Trying out little spells, trading stories and theories about how classes would run for the year.

[h3]Next Day[/h3]
Skylar had skipped through breakfast hurriedly, barely stopping to chew her food befor ebouncing off to her first classes of the day. Partially due to them being her first classes, Skylar was extremely excited, answering just as many questions as she asked of her professors. Much to the horror of her twin, Skylar was rushing about everywhere, trying to take in all of the sights she could.
It wasn't until lunch that she slowed down a bit, approaching the Slytherin table after she had spent a few minutes discussing homework with her fellow students. 

[i]"He was a bit confusing..." Moirah was nervous, but decided to throw down her own gauntlet. "... If the forbidden curses are so forbidden how come Aurors are allowed to use them? He says he doesn't use them but... It is as if he doesn't want to tell us the whole truth."[/i]
"He's an Auror, what did you expect?" Skylar smiled, slipping into the seat beside Moirah and nodding toward Aedan and the Gryffindor that she assumed was one of his cousins. "Most people who refuse to use a spell have often had bad experiences with it. If I had to guess he's either been tortured with one or regrets using one... You should ask him about it the next chance you get." She began picking out what she wanted to eat, popping a few grapes into her mouth before speaking again. 

"It's a real shame about the Dark Arts class, I hear it's mostly theory and book work. I was hoping for a little more hands on work, especially since there are students who are already a year behind on their studies. The least they can do is start with practice duels." Skylar shrugged her shoulders and took a bite out of her food, shifting her gaze to the Gryffindor.

"Cousin I assume?" She asked, the question finally bugging her enough to ask.
