And she was supposed to believe that changed the weight of this massive box?
She had to believe. She tried picking it up as instructed and...she could. With such ease. Something that was easily three times her weight wasn't any more difficult to carry than her old school backpack. She had to believe!
She smiled up at him. "Thank you"
This opened the door to so much! What else could be real?! Unicorns??!! Mermaids?! Fairies??!
While he waited for the girl to pick up her feather light trunk, Dorian looked around the lounge again. Why couldn't the Hogwarts Express look like this? It was classy and he liked it. Perhaps he liked it because he was as poor as could be.
"No problem" he said and waved his hand a little.
"I suggest learning that charm because it will come in handy while walking to classes in Hogwa---" he stopped and frowned.
"I mean Beauxbaton...Merlin it is weird saying that" he added in a mutter.
oh! where were his manners?!
"My name is Dorian Katharos" he said as he extended his hand for her to shake.
"You're new aren't you?" she had to be. No second year was this shy and nervous.
