In the commons, which were mercifully quiet and empty, Cove thought over everything that had happened recently. For one thing, he was a Marauder, whatever that meant.
He had fallen asleep before Kiwi entered. Waking abruptly from a nightmare, he wasn't sure of Kiwi's intentions. "Please don't hurt me," he whispered.
"Who are you?" he asked. A thought struck him. It was unlikely, but he had to make sure...
"Do you know Iris Sutherland?" He continued. His hands were shaking worse than before.

"Sorry," he said. "I was hoping..."
He trailed off.

"I'm fine."
He tried to smile reassuringly.

She looks like Delia, Cove realized. He hated himself for even thinking this--Delia was evil, and Kiwi was obviously not. But he couldn't ignore the memories once they started to come.
All at once, he was mentally back in the compound. Delia, the girl he'd loved for so long, was holding a gun to Iris's head and laughing cruelly, and there was nothing he could do to stop her..

He didn't comprehend her words for a few moments, until the flashback stopped and he forced himself to look at her. "I do, actually." He handed her the supplies she wanted.

Cove sat and waited for something to happen. He didn't want to bother Kiwi, so he didn't say anything.
"My name's Carson, but I'd rather you call me Cove," he said.
He was surprised that Kiwi was friendly toward him. Not many people were, in his experience. "Oh--nice to meet you too," he said after a brief pause.
((Let's go with it.))
Cove looked at Kiwi. They had just met, but he didn't mind her being there.
There was an awkward silence. "So...how long have you been at this school?" he asked finally.

He nodded. "I'm in the same situation. I've only been here for a few hours. Were you happy when you were sorted into this house?"

It was getting late. "Are there any empty dorms?" he asked after a few minutes.
"Not really," he replied. "Sorry,"
There was a bookshelf at one end of the commons. Cove walked over to it, chose the shortest novel on the shelf, and began to read. Even though the book was written at a third-grade level, it was a challenge. He wished that he'd learned to read better, but there had never been an opportunity.
Evenitually, he gave up and decided to explore the Marauder house more thoroughly. "Bye," he told Kiwi shyly, and left.
"I remembered along the way that this is my house too," the young Avatar said. 'So we'll likely be seeing each other once in a while."

Jackson smiled. "Well that's good. It'll be nice to see a familiar face." He looked around. "These houses are similar to those back home. At Hogwarts, I mean."
He hesitated, "Well, we aren't supposed to do magic outside of Hogwarts but I've already used it twice today, so I guess. Sure," he said more positively.
"So wait..." Ching paused. 'Why are you here and not there if you're never allowed to use it outside of there?"
"Just...anything. I've not heard of this "magic" before coming here and no one's ever showed me."
