Actually, the one time Gilderoy went with him on the train was on his first year, after that, he'd been traveling alone.

"He's named after Thaddeus Thurkell, you know, the wizard who turned all his kids into hedgehogs?" and he'd said as if it was common knowledge, as if he was saying that Harry Potter had beaten Lord Voldemort some years ago. Well, Mr. Thurkell had his chocolate frog card...just like Harry Potter.

Anyway, Treyen leaned back into his seat, right in the middle, and placed the knarl next to him by the window. The little creature looked around as if suspecting of evil standing in the middle of the compartment. "He won't hurt, so, don't mind him," and please don't offer him food.

That's when he heard her name, and like Tiberius she had a name he's never heard before, "Vashti? It's very nice to meet you," he smiled, and gave her a single nod. "Excited about Hogwarts?" because Quidditch was back, you know?

Thaddeus? "That's a nice name." It was different, certainly, but a good kind of different. Like her name, she supposed, though sometimes she didn't like her name. And thank goodness she'd gotten the gender right. She doubted any creature named Thaddeus would appreciate being called a girl. Not that the knarl would have understood her if she had...or would he?

Obviously she'd have to read her CoMC textbooks more.

That name...didn't sound familiar at all, which made her a little frustrated with herself. She was supposed to be a Ravenclaw and a history lover, and yet she couldn't remember something like that? Merlin. She'd have to read her History of Magic books more too. But Vashti wasn't going to admit that she didn't know about Thaddeus Thurkell, so she said, "Oh yeah, I've heard of him."

She watched the little knarl as he was set down on the seat and noticed how he appeared to think something was going to pounce down and attack him or something. Was he supposed to do that? Treyen didn't seem too concerned about it though, so perhaps it was normal behavior for a knarl.

"Likewise," Vashti replied, returning the smile. But next came the question she wasn't sure she could give a truthful answer to. Because really she wasn't all that happy to be going back to Hogwarts, but she really didn't want to tell any of her fellow classmates that. Suddenly, though, she remembered Quidditch and how Jacob was the new Captain, and that was all worth being excited over, even if nothing else was, right? "Defintely," she answered. "I'm really excited for Quidditch especially."
