"Smart," Kiz was impressed at the proactive thinking. Since dragons weren't on the list of approved pets. It would be VERY terrible to see Artemis get taken away. "Okay!" She nodded in delight, straightening her back. Kinsay hadn't planned to meet with any of her professors before classes started, but she'd obviously tag along with Emm. In case. Sometimes backup was good for these things. And they made a really good team. Begging for sleepovers made them professionals at garnering sympathy. It was another one of their skills. "We should teach him a new trick every day so that he'll know a zillion." It was really too bad about the fire though, Kiz made an appropriately sympathetic face to show that she was bothered by that too.

Honestly? In comparison, Sweetpea couldn't really do much of anything. So maybe Kiz wasn't as sad as she thought she was, but she did like the attention and kinds words. So. She soaked in it a little bit, you know? It wasn't a thing she often did, but sometimes it felt nice. "Yeah, you're right. Maybe she's in fish heaven." Which was a neat thought, though likely entirely untrue and made her laugh a little. If such a place did exist, Kinsay wanted to visit. Maybe she'd ask the creatures professor about that when she went with Emm.

She was still looking at the ground, thoughtfully, when Emm started idea-ing again. "REALLY!?" Yes, she was most definitely not sad anymore. Most definitely not envious anymore either. It was as if the last three minutes hadn't even happened because her WHOLE face had lit up at the proposal. "Oh, Emm, you're the best friend in the ENTIRE universe!" She gave her a tight hug to punctuate the point. "We can set up a bed for him in the dormitory and take him on walks and show him our routines..." The possibilities were just about endless. "And when Auntie Jessa makes me one, our dragons will be best friends too." In other words, Kiz was sold.

Somehow summer had flown by, literally.

The U-17 season had been off the charts and even more time consuming thanks to his "upgrade" to captain. He hadn't totally hated it...which had so much more to do with the team than the sport or the role. He liked his teammates and it always felt good to be a part of something - even if the pressure at being at the helm was suffocating and only added to the weight pushing down on him that he was just waiting to snap his spine in two. But this was fine. It was always fine.

Yes.

He actually felt a bit of relief being on the Hogwarts Express...even if it meant running into people he might not otherwise wish to. It meant a breather from pops and that was way better than the prospect of being locked in a compartment with Luz for the duration of the ride... or Spencer (which he wouldn't mind, actually) ... or Maia...as things unfortunately were turning out. Ideally he would like to spend a bit of the ride with Eliza, but for the time being Josh was looking over the itinerary of suggestions from pops as to his work out regime and ways to elevate it. Along with those reminders he did not need reminding of as the man had ingrained them so firmly in his head (honestly, it was a wonder the man had not made him a recording of him repeating the phrasing to play while he slept...like those motivational tapes of yore) that the sixth year was SEEING the words while awake.

Scouting had gone well this summer and offers were already in pending his graduation.

This. Was. Fine.

He was nose deep in his reading (and whistling) and nearly slammed into some others coming down the corridor in the opposite direction, but thankfully Josh had those stage reflexes and performed a somewhat elaborate but relaxed ballet leap and spin out of the way of his peers...and right into the compartment currently occupied by a couple of girls and...a dragon?

Well, right into it after his shoulder had somewhat ricocheted off the half open half closed door with a dull thud.

But...d r a g o n?

Uh. UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH. He had heard STORIES about dragons from some of his friends and what had happened that term they went to the French school (whose name he could NOT pronounce for the life of him and always came out like...well...maybe these two would find out during conversation). Letting out a bit of a sheepish chuckle while whistling on an exhale, he grinned at both girls and tried to recover from the, er, theatrical way he had entered their compartment.

"Hey there," he greeted with his Boston accent as thick as ever. "So...that's a rockin' looking dragon....is it real?"

No? Please say no.

Hear that? Her friend thought she was smart. Smart AND she was coming with her to the professor so she wouldn't have to go alone and two pouting blonde girls was better than one and basically this was a solid plan.

As was teaching Artemis a zillion tricks. "Let's start with flying!" Emm said, bouncing once in her seat from the sudden bout of excitement that gripped her. They would be like dragon tamers ~~nevermind he was only a toy~~!! Artemis did not appreciate being jostled, his wings flailing as he sought to regain balance. Emm helped him, her attention still mainly on Kizzy. "THEN when he can fly we can teach him to run errands for us!! He can fetch our clothes, pass notes between our beds, help us find things--we're gonna have the smartest baby dragon EVER!!"

And you know what else was good? Kizzy no longer being sad. Having nearly had the life squeezed out of her, she could now confirm that her friend was as happy as she was and was dead interested in getting a dragon. Best friend in the UNIVERSE. A little louder for the people in the back, please. "I'll help you pick out names--"

Emm's head whipped around when the compartment door suddenly opened. She wasn't the only one startled. Artemis screeched at the suddenly intrusion, his wings flapping vigorously despite his not knowing how to use them yet. The little dragon whirled around, making a beeline for the wide window.

"Kizzy! The window!" She yelled, trying to clutch the now fleeing dragon. Her hands only drove Artemis in the next direction, toward the boy who'd nearly TRAMPLED THEM. "The door!" She shouted at him. They had to seal the exits--something she'd DONE, before HE doofus-ed his way in. Forgot "hey", "Shut the door, moron!" Before it was too late.

Artemis flapped his way up to the boy's face, screeching as he did while he tried biting at him. Concern for the boy? No, concern her dragon would be loose in the train, yes.
