Mostly out of habit she waved to Madalyne, but gave the older girl a smile as well. Mary listened to Penny gush about her sister and for a moment she wished she had a sibling. Sure there were plenty of cousins, most distant. But there was a special bond for siblings. Something she envied of her best friends. 

When the head boy and girl started talking about their responsibilities Mary got nervous. What if she didn't know the answer to the riddle that the door knocker asked? Mary bit her lip chewing on it slightly before she decided she would see if any of the first years knew the answer. One thing about the riddles that was helpful was you could always wait and ask a friend if they knew the answer. And of course, her counterpart, Talbott, might know the answer too. 

After the Head's asked if anyone would help plan the ball, Mary's hand shot up. She loved the idea of getting to help plan for the ball. She suspected this year would be busy and stressful with the additional duties, but she couldn't pass up the idea of getting to help plan a party. Mary kicked Artie on the shin slightly hoping he would take her hint to raise his hand to offer to help.
