It's been awhile- Uh- Oops?-
Not Always The Same
Sunday September 1st, 1991
The sound of the GreatHall subsided from Harry's sorting, but still not many were watching.
"Weasley, Ronald!"
Mcgonagall plopped the Hat on Ron's head and it went all the way down to the end of his nose.
'Another Weasley.You are most definitely different then the others.'
Ron was always told that he would be Slytherin if he wasn't a Weasley. This was the moment he dreaded, where he would be with his family.
"Just shout it out please. I don't want to hearall my differences to my family." Ron thought to the Hat. He knew that he was absolutely different from his family, he really didn't want to hear that he was a horrible Weasley. Stealing, lying, he did lots of crimes, but he didn't even care.
'Ok, I hope you a good day, Ronald. Better be...'
"RAVENCLAW" The Hat yelled out to the hall.
That was not what Ron had been expecting. He was expecting Slytherin. Now Ron regretted telling the hat not to tell him why.
Ron placed the Hat on the stool for the next person. He walked over to the Ravenclaw table. Not slowly with his head hung to indicate disappointment. Not with his head high with a smirk to indicate he was proud. Not anger on his face and his head glaring at everybody he passed. But normally.He walked at a normal speed, his face had a calm expression and his head face forward where he was heading.
The Slytherins ignored it and looked back at the front for the last two people. The Ravenclaws looks said they could care less. The Hufflepuffs were shocked.
The Gryffindors. They stared with disbelief. The Weasley kids shook their head in disgust.
"I guess we were both right." Chuckled a voice from next to him when he sat down. He looked over to see Icelynn.
"Hey, Kappa." He whispered, petting Nori and Yuki who were on his lap. Yuki jumped off and into Icelynn's.
"She's cute." Icelynn said, rubbing her feathers and Ron nodded in agreement. "And you can call me Ice."
"Ron." Ron replied quietly, looking up at the grassy eyed boy. "Yeah. I just did not expect to be in Ravenclaw." He muttered, rolling his eyes.
"Quiet, but sassy?" Ice raised an eyebrow. "I know I've said this before, but I'll say it again, i like you, you're interesting."
"Thanks." Ron sarcastically whispered.
The Headmaster had rose to his feet by the time Ron looked back at the front. Albus Dumbledore took a sweeping look across the Hall before settling on staring at the Gryffindor table while speaking. "Bloody weirdo always favoring Gryffindors."Ron thought bitterly, relaxing his chin on the palm of his hand.
He huffed to himself as the old man at the front of the Hall beamed and spoke in a boom. "Welcome and welcome back to Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry!" He spread his arms out wide as if waiting for a hug. "A new year atHogwarts!" He sighed and closed his eyes. "Well, i won't keep you from filling your holes much longer. I would just like to say a few words;Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!" That's all!" And with that he sat down and food appeared on every table.
"Aren't you hungry, Ron?" Ice asked, one hand holding a biscuit, the other petting Yuki.
Ron looked down at the curled up water cat on his lap and smiled softly. "Not really, I'll have something small." He murmured, rubbing Noir's silk coat.
