Derry was pretty unimpressed with today, Hugo had woken her up at stupid o'clock, and then she'd spent hours waiting around for her dad to take her down to London... which he hadn't. Her parents had both been pre-occupied and things were running over and she was getting later and later...

So she'd come by herself in the end. Not impressed. Her last year at Hogwarts and she'd come to the station by herself. Great. She got her trunk on the train, then searched for an empty compartment. It didn't take her long, and she hadn't had to scowl at anyone for being in the way yet, so at least that was a small victory.

She found a compartment and closed the door behind her, chucking her bag on a chair and falling heavily into one of the seats by the window. Well, at least she was sat down now. Derry grabbed one of her lollipops from her bag and unwrapped it quickly, hiding the rest of them. She wasn't in the mood to share sweets today, people. Not in the mood. Grump. Huff. Grr. Time to stare out the window dramatically and attempt relaxing.
