"Has anyone in your family gone to Hogwarts before?" she asked, in response to Charlie's statement about her being on top of things. Maybe the girl hadn't had anyone to prepare her. Sad. Hopping onto the seat she chose, she dug out a cookie for herself and nommed it thoughtfully. Everyone Hazel knew so far had some connection to the place. She was about to say something else when..... ...she heard the unmistakeable warble of her best friend. A grin splitting her face near in two, she leapt up and stuck her head into the corridor. "DERF!! OVER HERE!" Best friend, best friend, train ride with the best friend!
She turned her head back to Charlie. "That's Derfael. You'll like him loads." At least, she hoped so. All of her friends needed to be friends. She wouldn't know how to function. "Hurry up!" she called back into the hall. "You need to meet Charlie!" Quote:

There wasn't really anything Charlie had to be embarrassed about, but being at an obvious disadvantage compared to a large chunk of her peers wasn't the most comforting fact. She'd always been towards the top of her class at her muggle primary school, but who's to say that pattern would continue at Hogwarts? All of the others probably went to special wizarding primary schools, and even if they didn't, they'd have had a head start simply with how long they'd been exposed to magic. Well, no matter. She'd just have to put more work into studying outside of class.
Charlie jumped out of her seat a little bit when Hazel yelled into the hallway for a Derf. What was a Derf? Or perhaps the better question would be who. She found out the answer when told so, and she nodded in reply. This Derf was Derfael for full, a he, and someone she would apparently like loads. Well, if Hazel thought so, Charlie didn't think he would be too hard to like. Of course, though, she would need to really meet him before a true opinion was made, which she figured she'd be doing shortly.
HE HEARD THAT! HE TOTALLY HEARD THAT!
Spinning around on the spot towards the source of Hazel's voice and OH THERE SHE WAS!
He WAS hurrying. Merlin. It wasn't like he WANTED to take forever finding a compartment. He had been kicked out of the first one he had tried to secure prior to his trip to the food trolley by some older boy. Mum had told him how quickly the compartment could fill and she was RIGHT. But Hazel had taken care of things, like always, so appreciative bouncing was happening as he made his way down the corridor...passing by a girl with REALLY REALLY NEAT HAIR. It reminded him a little of Emma's hair...which sparked an IDEA in the 11-year-old's mind and he HOPED that Hogwarts housed a variety of magical birds so he could test theory. "ON MY WAY!"
Because he needed to "hurry" and get to Hazel and... "Charlie?" he repeated, bit of a stutter bounce as he processed. "OKAY!" Since he needed to and all.
Pulling the chocolate frogs from his pocket, Derf spun himself into the compartment and immediately flopped down comfortably into a seat. "As-s-s long as-s you don't mind my keeping fe card...I haff chocolate frogs," he grinned, presenting the duo with the humble sampling he had purchased from the trolley. "Hi. I'm Derfael. But mos-st people call me Derf...s-so you s-should too," he introduced himself to the other girl - CHARLIE - as a bit of an afterthought. "Oh!" he chirped, chocolate frogs being abandoned on the seat for now so he could reach into his pocket and pull out his pet warty newt. "...and fis is Scamander."
