Isidora wasn't one to volunteer taking Paris anywhere. Ever. But she had been so busy this summer with well.... everything, that she decided to see off her smallest friends, uncertain if she would see them again before next summer. And since Paris just so happened to be leaving with them, she offered to take him to the station, saving his parents and their uncle the hassle.

They didn't have to talk while they traveled, but that didn't seem to stop him, and she begrudgingly kept up some small talk until they got to the station and through the border. Answering all the questions he tossed her way with some disinterest.

"Here." She handed him a small pouch full of coins, her hazel eyes roaming the platform in a casual manner. "Don't expect this to become a thing." Just because she lived closer than all of his family (btw it made NO sense to her that he rode the train), didn't mean she would be doing him this favor too often.

With a wave she dismissed him then continued her scan for Ravenclaws much smaller than he was.

He was as tall as she was now, did she know? He noticed almost immediately that he no longer had to look up to her like he'd done all of his life, and was very proud of this fact.

This new found fact made it easy for him to hide a tiny amount of the surprise that he had at her volunteering to take him to Kings Cross. She'd never done anything voluntarily for him BEFORE, but he wasn't going to complain now. It got him out of having to go with any of his family who would embarrass him, and for that he was thankful.

The rising fifth year did his best not to talk too much but it had been a while since he'd seen her, and he had a few questions to ask. Very important questions that couldn't be be asked to the sisters for reasons.

"I don't need money." But he took it anyway. Knowing her, it was well more than enough to get him through the term. "But thanks, Isidora." He flashed her a grin, pocketing the money and didn't even wait for her to dismiss him before he turned to go find his own friends, luggage trailing behind.
