Cad had forgotten that the newest Ravenclaws hadn't been around for the dramatics of last year, but he wasn't one for drama, let alone to rehash it (especially considering that one of the twins wasn't even at Hogwarts anymore to defend herself, having dropped out quite quickly), so he was pleased with Miss Greyback pipped up to answer his question. It was a generic enough answer that it didn't paint them in a bad light, which was quite good - Cadogan was proud to be a Ravenclaw, and he'd hate for the first years to worry about the house they were just sorted into. Introductions were made, and he was sure to introduce himself as well.
The conversation moved along, and Cad bobbed his head in agreement at them being clever. "We are more than just clever," Cad heard himself saying. He wasn't the smartest person, and most of his friends in other houses got better marks than he did. "And the hat is able to see who you are and who you might become. You'll find out soon enough why you're a Ravenclaw." Although if he was being honest, it probably hadn't been crystal clear to Cad his first year why he was placed here.
"I'm one of your prefects, so if you need anything, just ask." He offered Mr. Potter and Ms. Shacklebolt a soft smile. Then he turned to Miss Greyback, breathing out a quiet laugh. "I hope we win the quidditch cup. They won last year." He tipped his head toward the Gryffindor table.
