Lunch (open)

[jamietyler]

Jamie sat down at the Ravenclaw Table for her first lunch at Hogwarts. She was starving, and hadn't eaten since afternoon the day before. She looked at all of the dishes loaded with delicious food and began to put some on her plate. Then, after she took all she wanted, she started to eating a sandwich, looking around at the other Ravenclaws who she would be seeing every day.

Ju was, as always, in a hurry. There was a lot to do today, so it was important that she didn't take too long to do something. Eating lunch was no exception; she still had classes to attend, homework to be finished, and tons of studying to do. There was even more stuff that needed to be done, but those were her main concerns: schoolwork. After all, that's why she was at Hogwarts (and sorted into Ravenclaw), right?
She decided that a corned beef sandwich and some soup would make a good lunch. She took a particularly large sandwich and spooned some soup into her bowl before going to go find a seat.
There was an open seat at her house table next to a fellow first year whom she recgonized from a few of her classes. Ju didn't know her by name, though. She sat down in that seat and started on her warm soup.
"Hi, I'm Ju Huang. Ravenclaw first year." Ju said, feeling as if she'd introduced herself way too many times. And it's always the same deal: greeting, name, house, year. Never any different. Oh well, maybe that's how things work around here. Ju took a spoonful of soup as she awaited her answer.

Jamie smiled as the fellow Ravenclaw sat down next to her. She thought she had seen her before, probably in class and during the sorting ceremony.

"Hi! I'm Jamie Tyler, first year Ravenclaw, as well." She took a sip of pumpkin juice. "Nice to meet you."

Ju seemed to be eating quickly.

"In a hurry, huh?" She said, smiling. "I bet it's from the schoolwork that you have to get done, right? Theres lots of things you have to do at Hogwarts. I got homework piled on today and there's probably still more to come, but at least it's something to do."

She shrugged and took a bite of her sandwich, waiting for a response.

"Nice to meet you, too.", Ju said as she sprinkled soup crackers into the delicious soup. She sighed, remembering how she and Ai would walk up to a deli and they'd both get what she was eating right now: chicken noodle soup and a corned beef sandwich. Although this tasted pretty good, it wasn't comparable to the amazing food from that corner deli. Ju never realized, until now, how much she missed their food, Miss Bell (the nice, old waitress that was always there), and being there with Ai.
"Oh, I know, there's so much you can do here. Homework to be done, places to explore, and good food to eat ... it's way more busy here than I expected. But yeah, I was going to try to squeeze in some homework time before all the classes we have to attend. But speaking of busy, are you trying out for quidditch? I don't know anyone else who is," Ju added. She continued to eat her soup rather quickly. It was pretty hard to do that, though, when the soup was burning her tongue. But Ju didn't have enough time to eat slowly and leisurely; there was too much stuff to do. She sincerely hoped that she wasn't being rude or looking like a pig, judged solely by her eating habits.

Jamie shook her head.

"Sorry," She said, biting into her sandwich once again. "I'm not either."

Then she swallowed her food so she could talk again.

"So that means you're trying out?" Jamie asked curiously. "I like to play Quidditch for fun, but not for a team or anything."
