Ian came deeper into the compartment, trying to settle himself into what was going. Just an hour ago, he was trying to calm his mum for the third straight year and now he was in a compartment on the train with two younger girls. Not just two girls, but 2 out a set of three triplets (one of whom seemed to be missing). He was a little confused because neither seemed particularly concerned about the absence of the other or that they found themselves to a new train separately.

Ian shrugged and took a seat next to AJ, across from Angel. He listened to them both as they caught one another up, and seemed to have some issue about a stinging hex in a place they might possibly should not have been. Either way, here they were acting like sisters and then hugging it out.

Angel's book sounded interesting, from a muggle point of view. That sounds like a very detailed history of the UK. Is there some reason you're more interested in that depth of history, or were you expecting a really long train ride?

To AJ's request, he turned to her and smiled. Is there anything in particular you'd like to know? The castle is rather large and there's much going on there and on the grounds. Add to that, magic users and creatures as well as ghosts and house elves and progessors, there's so much I could tell you.
