That was two affirmatives. Good. Janelle made her way into the compartment, not completely oblivious to the tension? in the room. "Thanks so much", she said appreciatively, as she sat in the seat offered by the older boy. "I was getting pretty tired of hunting for an empty space."

"I'm Janelle", she said, as she eyed both boys in turn. There was kind of a weird vibe in the air......like she had interrupted something. Oh well, both of her compartment mates had been welcoming to her.......so hopefully all was good.

Being a Hogwarts Express veteran, Janelle knew that you did not ride the train without food. She had learned that the hard way. The feast was a looooong way off. She always traveled with treats and nothing broke the ice like sweets. "Chocolate frog anyone?"
