Pausing to shifting the weight of his backpack on his shoulder, and to let a few students pass, Sabel spared a peak down at his dusty and nearing-holiness hiking boots; he hadn't had the time to buy a new pair and with how regulated Hogwarts was in its dress code he hadn't expected to need one.

With another sigh he rolled his ankle to try and lodge the shoelace on the inside of his foot where there was no danger of another stepping on it and tripping him, and with a great deal of awkward penguin-like walking, made his way to the back of the train. It took a few moments to find an empty car, but there was a great amount of relief as he slipped inside and shut the door behind himself, leaning back against it and dropping his bag on the ground beside him. Peace and quiet. Finally.

Considering Sabel was practically a tree, as far as height was concerned, Kellen was surprised he hadn't spotted the elusive Canadian earlier. Pausing only to give the fifty-thousandth glance down of the day at his badge, he trailed after the Gryffindor. Of course, of course Sabel would go all the way to the back, when the prefects' compartment was all the way at the front, but Kellen contented himself with the knowledge that his legs got all cramped anyway during long trips. This way, he'd be able to stretch them out after.

Seeing as Sabel was being a bit of a butt and leaning against the door, and as Kellen didn't want to match his buttheaded-ness by opening the door and causing his friend to fall, he turned his shoulder to the glass panel and rapped his knuckles off of it, "Oy. You've got a loose shoelace. That's a tripping hazard to other students."

He considered this, and added, "More of a tripping hazard than you are normally."
